WEEK 5 - TRIAL

[petoskeymods]

TRIAL

It takes a full day after finding the body, but on Saturday, the counselors call you all to the campfire, the bonfire already roaring away as everyone finds their seats. Stan and Red are seated there, with Stan holding a box saying 'VOTES' written on it.

It looks like you're here to find the killer.

And just like before, you know you'll be forced to vote before the night's over...

And condemn someone to a grisly fate.

VICTIM: Usagi Tsukino
CAMPERS REMAINING: 15

((Remember that Everyone must vote and that Votes are due by 6pm EST!))

Boa. If we're talking about pride, then you should be able to answer your own questions, rather than letting your friends do it for you.

[It's firm, though not harsh. He's just remembering Ichigo, and Kon, and that whole trial. Lenka's going to motion for Boa to come away from the group with him. Much easier to question out of the crowd.]

There wasn't a question that provoked this. If you have any, go ahead though.

[ He'll hesitantly follow. ]

[soylentprotag]

I think the question was whether you're willing to work with Red, for your own survival.

[He's willing to let him clarify that. But it's not the crux of the matter. People do all kinds of things when they're backed into a corner, and it won't help them to determine what's really happening.]

I have a different one, as well. How bad are your hallucinations, this week?

[finalguard]

I saw the overseers at the Snake Pit. It... was unpleasant, but I managed to work with it.

[soylentprotag]

The Snake Pit.

[That's an auspicious name.]

Is that where you were, before you came here?

[finalguard]

It is. I've told a few people about it.

It's a training facility. You get stronger or you die trying.

[soylentprotag]

Then the overseers are the people who determine whether you live or die...?

[Boa. Boa didn't you come from a spinny top world. But he's still going to take that information for the moment, because hallucinations are hallucinations and they're born from emotion.]

[finalguard]

[ He nods. ]

Them or our bodies. There is only so much training one can take. But this place is the same, isn't it? So seeing him didn't matter much.

[soylentprotag]

... I don't think this place is supposed to make us stronger.

[It seems more intent on breaking them down little by little, piece by piece and relationship by relationship. He's quiet for a moment.]

If seeing him didn't matter, then you probably wouldn't have seen him. But... if you can deal with him, then it probably isn't related to the case.
