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!))

EVIDENCE

[petoskeymods]

COUNSELORS

[petoskeymods]

[finalguard]

[ As people are still settling down around the campfire and the trial hasn't really started yet, Boa makes his way to Mitsuru. He's holding a launcher and Rising Ragnaruk and once he reaches Mitsuru, he just thrusts his hands out to hold them as if they're an offering. ]

I know you won't have much use for this in Vision, but I want you to have them.

[ This is... awkward. He's not even sure what kind of face someone is meant to make in this situation. ]

… happy birthday.

[ It's not happy by a long shot, with camp like this and the trial coming right up, but that's what you're meant to say, right? ]

[stanboozled]

[Stan doesn't look happy, but he's here.]

1. In the mess hall, Nine and Boa finds a headless body
2. Pink smudges on the back of the body from paint.
3. The head was removed after death.
4. Marks on the neck.
5. After getting the head from the kitchen, the marks are revealed to be hand prints from hands smaller than Nine's.

Hand Check

[linearcrash]

[ FIRST THING, Nine is just going to approach everyone. ]

Let me see your hands, yo.

[ Nine is checking size comparison to the marks on Usagi and if there's any paint in the nail beds, nails, or rubbed on the skin some where. ]

KITCHEN

[trashmouthtozier]

- Usagi's head was in the freezer with half of the handprints visible on the edge of her neck. It had been there long enough to freeze to the floor of the freezer. There were no footprints or other visible evidence. It was not a hallucination.

Pavillion

[killtheanimals]

There was an empty bucket that previously held pink paint, judging by the color splashed on the lid.

[diesifkilled]

[Shirou's hands are bigger than the marks and clean of any paint.]

[trashmouthtozier]

[Richie holds them up. he's ... tentatively looking Nine in the eye as he does so. are you still going to be a dick, today? even if you are, he's clean]

[finalguard]

[ Boa's hands are small so they should be feasible for the mark. They're also clean. ]

[itsagazebo]

[Eddie holds out his hands. They're small, but clean.]

Cabin 3

[soylentprotag]

Lenka, Chuuta, Eddie, and Richie (guest starring Nine) found and argued over pink paint on Chuuta's bunk and the outside of his trunk.

[killtheanimals]

[Mitsuru's hands are predictably small, but clean.]

Alibi Check

[diesifkilled]

You know how this goes. Let's hear where everybody was last night.

[bladeisme]

[HE HANDS BIG, also very clean.]

[linearcrash]

[ He's just going to poke his hands with a finger while tilting his head. ] Sorry.

[trashmouthtozier]

[Richie's turning to a fresh page in his new notebook]

You beat me to it. I was in Cabin 3 with Nine after Red kicked everyone else out.

[he's still pretty sour about that]

[velocirainbow]

I was wid Ren.

[ Curt. To the point. He's not... okay. His eyes are dry now, but his throat is hoarse. ]

[soylentprotag]

[His hands prooooobably don't match. They're also clean despite paint investigations.]

[trashmouthtozier]

Yeah, I know.

[he turns his bitty hands over so Nine can see the other side, too, since mun forgot to mention size in the last tag for consistency's sake]

[killtheanimals]

[It's not been a good birthday. The exhaustion is growing harder and harder to combat (the soft patter of blood falling from a barely perceptible knife on one's mattress is not so nearly as calming as the similar sound of rain; it's a miracle he didn't scream and wake the whole cabin), and in light of the day, he's wearing his more subdued, non-camp clothes, the black sorcerer robes worn loosely around his shoulders.

So, with that said.

Boa's gift catches him entirely off guard, and maybe it's the weariness, maybe it's something else, but - he looks far more surprised by this than anything else that's happened in the camp, staring at the beyblade and launcher for a moment before reaching out to take them.]

...Thank you, Boa.

[It's fine if Boa doesn't know what to say. Honestly, Mitsuru himself isn't too sure either.]

[linearcrash]

Was in Cabin 3 with Richie. Red decided the others needed new friends, yo. [ Grumbling. Red why ]

[diesifkilled]

Where was that?

Re: Alibi Check

[itsagazebo]

[Eddie hesitates.]

After Red said we all couldn't stay in the cabin I went outside. I... was in the field til curfew.
