first trial

[With the announcement, the Champions are free to decide amongst themselves what order the groups leave in. Once that's done the process of teleporting is automatic and happens in the blink of an eye. Once second they're in the center of the cafeteria before a soft blue light surrounds them and then they're standing in the middle of a circle of podiums.

The room itself it the same shiny, chrome-covered atrocity as most of the rest of the ship save for the sections of floor that aren't the teleporter: those are thick clear glass that show nothing but empty space and stars beneath the Champions' feet. As for the podiums they're the same sort of garish chrome with a digital screen facing toward the center of the circle. The screens each have a name and title associated with a Champion written in green block letters, all save for Chloe Price, the Champion of Max Caulfield, Miki Naoki, the Champion Support and Chitose Karasuma, the Champion of Mediocrity. Theirs are a striking red and, floating above their podiums, are greyscale portraits framed in some kind of bold, mechanical-looking frame.

The Overseers are waiting when they all arrive, standing on a floating platform just high enough to be out of reach and back far enough toward a far wall to have a full view of the courtroom. Both are dressed well, Rox in a pressed grey dress jacket and skirt and Blaze in a black suit with the sleeves rolled up to expose his numerous tattoos.Rox is again the one who speaks up.]


Welcome, Champions, to the courtroom! Twenty of you have entered, but - in the best case scenario - only nineteen of you will leave. The goal here is to compile the evidence that you've gathered and figure out who the killer is. Once you think you have an answer, we'll call a vote where you'll use the podium in front of you to vote on the title of the Champion who you all agree has broken the peace. If you're correct, the culprit will be executed and the rest of you will be allowed to go back upstairs. If you're wrong, however, the killer goes free and the rest of you take the punishment in their place.

There's no time limit, but we reserve the right to call for a vote if things drag on too long. Now let the first trial begin!

...That piece of shit.

[ aka rox. ]

You think Miki might've broken the camera and Rox came for her as a punishment?

...Earlier in the week, I saw Miss Miki climb up on a stack of cardboard boxes to examine a camera in the storage room. It... seems possible.

...I don't know if she'd make us go through a trial if she were the culprit. She'd probably just fucking announce it to the whole world, loud and proud, like the piece of garbage she is.
karappo: I don't know whether I should stop him or just sit back and watch where this goes (jyushi is trying to butt heads)

I agree with Yuri-kun. All of this would not really be necessary...she would have just been simply another example.
quadjumps: (i can't hear anything)

[personal profile] quadjumps 2017-10-28 05:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. So...I guess that purple stuff isn't blood.

Unless she has some kinda ulterior motive to kill someone. No one acted, and they couldn't have another "boring" week, so she took matters into her own hands?

But maybe it's best to shelve the "Shark-chan did it" theory until we hit a wall, or somethin'.
quadjumps: (i'm the youth)

[personal profile] quadjumps 2017-10-28 05:11 pm (UTC)(link)
But Miki was killed after Chitose was. Rox wouldn't have needed to do anything at that point; we could've just had Chitose dead and that'd be it.
batfortheprincess: (♦ please give me a moment.)

[personal profile] batfortheprincess 2017-10-28 05:11 pm (UTC)(link)
You have a point. And it'd be a bigger deterrent to not go near the cameras as well...
challengesfate: (damage taken)

MODS?

[personal profile] challengesfate 2017-10-28 05:12 pm (UTC)(link)
...If assumed Petuu was the one who killed Miki, though...Petuu would also know of Chitose's death. As an Overseer, she would be watching us through those cameras, would she not?

Perhaps leaving Miki for us to discover her is a way to trick us.

[Sharply, she looks over at the Overseers.] Rox Petuu, are you able to confirm or deny whether a Champion was the one to kill Miki? As opposed to someone who would not be a Champion?

[Rox smiles a little down at Lucina.]

If I punish a Champion, you'll all know about it.
karappo: <user name=winterbolt> (well im just gonna sit here naked)

[personal profile] karappo 2017-10-28 05:43 pm (UTC)(link)
As expected of you, Petuu-san.
challengesfate: (sulking!!)

[personal profile] challengesfate 2017-10-28 05:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[Glowers...]

...Alright.

Hella-crap-jerk.
andjerry: (oh my god gw a red tree)

[personal profile] andjerry 2017-10-28 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
...we saw how she kills people before. [chloe, shot down in front of all of them...]

I think she'd have made Miki an example too.
quadjumps: (i am the greatest)

[personal profile] quadjumps 2017-10-28 05:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[ he's starting to have second thoughts, now. ]

Why waste time pursuing her when she could've just shot Miki instead? I don't know, maybe that was a bad suggestion.
andjerry: (emily that is not how you make toast)

[personal profile] andjerry 2017-10-28 05:09 pm (UTC)(link)
-no, no! You had a good idea. [and if you don't he isn't going to say because he isn't about to start a fight mid-trial]

We have to think of all the possibilities, don't we?
quadjumps: (take my breath away)

[personal profile] quadjumps 2017-10-28 05:10 pm (UTC)(link)
...Yeah.
