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!

Honestly Osomatsu wasn't expecting to get smacked like that, so it sends him to the side and he catches himself on his podium with his arms.]
...
[He's absolutely stunned into silence, rather he just stares up at Penny with a look of confusion and mild fear, as he brings a hand up to his red cheek.]

[Osomatsu mumbles that quietly.]
Even if it was an accident, she still did it. Why should I treat her nicely for it? Should I praise her? "Oh, good job for killing someone and almost getting us all killed by keeping quiet about it!"

[Osomatsu yells that at him, and straightens himself back up.]
Even if the roles were reversed, someone's still dead! For real! It's not just some gag where they're gonna come back the next episode, they're dead and nothing's gonna change that!

Are you...implying that I don't understand...how permanent death is?
no subject
[Look....... he's from a weird place..]
I didn't!
No one ever dies from back home! It's always been a joke! I've exploded in space, my brother's been killed with a chainsaw, our entire city was destroyed by a giant robot! But everyone came back the next episode!
This is the first time that.. that it's ever been permanent before.
It's scary.

[Okay so she was actually prepared to brawl with this muppet man over the concept of death, had he answered a different way. This? This knocks her right the fuck back, this is absolutely shocking to her. Lucina's mouth falls open, and she can't even form words for a good half minute.]
...Then...I am sorry this is how you had to find out...how it feels like. To know...that death brings with it no return.

[...]
....can I still have that alcohol you mentioned earlier?
no subject
[The one petty thing she can do to Osomatsu: deny him of any of her own alcohol.]

This is...a lot for us to come to terms with.

[Gods, it's all she can say today. She's sorry. But what good will that ever do?]
I can understand...why he's so upset, then. [A pause.] And I cannot begrudge his ire, either.
no subject
[Incredible. He's still crying. Someone get this boy a sports drink to replenish those electrolytes.]
But that doesn't make Lucina a murderer! She was just--she tried to help her, you fucking shithead, which is more than I've seen you do for anyone!

Even if she didn't mean to, she still killed Chitose-chan. She's still a murderer.

Maybe if Lucina-chan hadn't killed her, they coulda' talked it out or something!
