trial 4; baby, it's cold inside

[jinglehellmods]

WHO KILLED CHRISTMAS?

Starshine and Brasco assemble everyone in the room. The room is extra foreboding and cold after the events of last week, and the raw egg evidence as well as Rider's body have been preserved in the room, so tread carefully.

Starshine slams down the paper for this week with all the suspects and laughs, turning to Brasco and gesturing wildly, pointing at him. "J'accuse, Brasco! This whole time, we've been pointing figures at each other but there was one man we never pointed at. And it's you! And actually, all the rest of the people on this list, too." She looks back at the list and taps it gently, "Oh, yeah, one other thing, I need you to write two names on your paper. Assuming you actually vote, unlike you abstainers," she says it the way someone in the 1950s might say communists. "I deduced that two people definitely killed the two dead people, so have fun with that." She claps her hands, "get to it, my minions!"

... In a house that's trying to kill us off one by one.

[thatdarkmage]

Well, yes, but you know what I mean.

[theothermrgray]

... Do you have any better ideas?

[thatdarkmage]

Honestly, if Robin were here he wouldn't stand for following along with whatever the hosts wanted.

[ ... ]

So, no. Let's just vote for the hosts and see them have to deal with the consequences for once!

[ Because it's be FUN! ]

[theothermrgray]

Robin?

Who is that?

[thatdarkmage]

Oh, a friend of mine. He's good at strategy and all that stuff!

[theothermrgray]

... If only he were here...

[Not just to keep Henry in line, but to help with this stupid trial.]

[acherontiastyx]

I really don't think it's gonna work for the Princess, though. Like, she's the ruthless dictator here.

[ident17y]

There's really no point in going along with what she wants, either.

[acherontiastyx]

She's totally going to pick a rando to die in the shed if we abstain for one of the votes, though. I don't want that rando to be me or anyone I actually give a crap about?

[ident17y]

At the price of Brasco dying, it's not a bad trade.

[ Sorry random mcrandom person. ]

[acherontiastyx]

Yeah, screw you too, I guess.

[ident17y]

It's nothing personal, I just don't care about anyone here.

[theothermrgray]

... I hope you survive this trial, Guzma. I'd like to speak to you about something.

[acherontiastyx]

Well, they do let us do final words and everything, so. If I get the shed, tell me then.

[theothermrgray]

...

Very well.
