second trial

[airlockedmods]

[Like last week the announcement sounds, the Champions with their gathered evidence file once again to the teleporter where the courtroom waits for them.

The a circle of podiums has changed since last week. The Griffin, Toby, and Angelica's floating portraits have joined Chintanda's above their respective podiums as well as the bright green having been changed to a glaring red.

The Overseers are waiting on their floating platform when the first group of Champions arrive. They're back in their black suits, side by side. Jamie's expression is grim but he looks more mentally present than the last trial. Bolton, on the other hand, looks stern but not grim, arms crossed over his chest. Once again, he's the one who makes the announcement.]

Welcome, Champions, to the courtroom. Sixteen of you have entered, but - in the best case scenario - only fifteen of you will leave. Compile your evidence and figure out who the killer is. If you vote correctly, the culprit will be executed and the rest of you will be allowed to go back upstairs. If you vote wrong, however, the killer goes free and the rest of you take the punishment in their place.

Remember, there is no time limit but keeping things interesting is in your best interests.

While Angelica was one of the bigger women here with the sheet it wouldn't be hard to drag her. I think the only one of us that for sure wouldn't be able to get her onto the hoop is Shadow. And perhaps Rukia.

If they dragged her, they were careful. Nothing was out of place to imply someone was trailing something the size of a human behind them.

If it was done early enough they might have had time to clean- or just been large enough to carry her with no issue.

Someone strong, or someone observant enough to notice anything knocked out of place...

There was a run in one of her stockings, like it'd been torn. Could've happened while she was being moved, or. While the culprit set up the final scene.

There's an array of things it could have been hooked on- and honestly, unless something was moved completely out of place, how many of us would even notice if something was just slightly out of place?
