trial 4; baby, it's cold inside





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!"

I swear to whatever the hell god may or may not exist that I didn't kill anybody here. It was the robot and creepy kid, obviously!
thatdarkmage: (> fourteen)

[personal profile] thatdarkmage 2018-01-14 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
Wow, someone's desperate!

acherontiastyx: yeah. (oh.)

[he kind of taps his pencil against the table, considering the following...]
thedifferencebetween: (princess we talked about this)

[personal profile] thedifferencebetween 2018-01-14 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
Look, they were stabbed and messed up and shit. I don't do messy.

I'm not gonna stand here and try and claim I don't kill people, in my own natural environment. I do. I totally do. But...I pretty much always do it in a very specific way. That is not messy. If I'd done one of'em, one of'em would be strangled.

[This is a shitty defense, but hey, Jack's against a wall here.]

And I only do it when I have a reason to.
acherontiastyx: yeah. (oh.)

[personal profile] acherontiastyx 2018-01-14 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
You've said that before, though. And like. If you really wanted to cover your tracks, it'd be messy.
thedifferencebetween: (screw you)

[personal profile] thedifferencebetween 2018-01-14 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
I said it because it's true! It's not...

If I killed anybody, it would be to avenge my daughter. If I was avenging my daughter...I couldn't do it any other way. I don't really know how to explain to you what it is, psychologically for me about strangling, but...it's the only way I would've done it.

[personal profile] acherontiastyx 2018-01-14 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
Oh.

I think that says a lot more about you than I really wanted to know.
thedifferencebetween: (screw you)

[personal profile] thedifferencebetween 2018-01-14 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, probably, but it's either admit that or probably die, so...

Now we all know that about me. I hope everyone's happy it's come to this point.
theothermrgray: (lustful)

[personal profile] theothermrgray 2018-01-14 02:17 am (UTC)(link)
Then what of the other battle scars under your shirt? Hm?

I doubt you'd be able to kill any armed enemies in the past with your bare hands.
thedifferencebetween: (behold my great works)

[personal profile] thedifferencebetween 2018-01-14 02:19 am (UTC)(link)
....really? You're bringing those up?

[Jack has to take a moment here. There's stuff he really, really doesn't like people to know. But if it's a matter of his life....]

Those aren't battle scars, I was beaten a ton when I was a kid. I used giant ass lasers and stuff to take out the space monsters and shit, I wasn't even near them.
acherontiastyx: yeah. (oh.)

[personal profile] acherontiastyx 2018-01-14 02:17 am (UTC)(link)
Gotta say, though. I'm thinking about something right now we talked about a ways back.
acherontiastyx: that angry teen boy vibe (something something tried so hard)

[personal profile] acherontiastyx 2018-01-14 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
[oh, wait, that revelation in the thread with dorian kind of shuts him up um

...]


And I'm really kinda hoping I don't end up you later on, dude.
thedifferencebetween: (screw you)

[personal profile] thedifferencebetween 2018-01-14 02:26 am (UTC)(link)
At this point, I'm hoping I'm not me later on....

This is bullshit. I'm not guilty. Someone's setting me up, and doing a damn good job.
acherontiastyx: that angry teen boy vibe (something something tried so hard)

[personal profile] acherontiastyx 2018-01-14 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
...Remember when we talked about being feared and loved or whatever.
thedifferencebetween: (screw you)

[personal profile] thedifferencebetween 2018-01-14 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, different context.
acherontiastyx: yeah. (oh.)

[personal profile] acherontiastyx 2018-01-14 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know, man. I think you're still failing in some way if I come out of this thinking you're kind of pathetic.
thedifferencebetween: (screw you)

[personal profile] thedifferencebetween 2018-01-14 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
I've had a really rough week, buddy! Not exactly at my best, here.
acherontiastyx: that angry teen boy vibe (something something tried so hard)

[personal profile] acherontiastyx 2018-01-14 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
Well, yeah. And I know what I'm like when I'm not at my best.
thedifferencebetween: (screw you)

[personal profile] thedifferencebetween 2018-01-14 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
You ever lost a kid?
acherontiastyx: yeah. (oh.)

[personal profile] acherontiastyx 2018-01-14 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
I'm in my early twenties and I've barely had romantic relationships.

I think I'd probably be worse there, though.
thedifferencebetween: (Default)

[personal profile] thedifferencebetween 2018-01-14 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
That's my point. It breaks a person. Don't judge me for how I am this week. My daughter's all I have. Had. I lost everything and I'm staring at a guilty vote. Nobody's okay at that point.
ident17y: (#2)

[personal profile] ident17y 2018-01-14 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
Still flattered.
