week 4 - trial

week four trial




[At 9 AM precisely, the old grandfather clock chimes once again, and the doors to the drawing room are opened. They will remain open until everyone has come inside, after which they will shut behind them. It is not possible to leave on your own, although perhaps if you have a specific purpose the hostess will allow you to go, as long as you are accompanied by a partner.

The room is set up comfortably, with several tables by the fireplace set out to assist with the trial. The Hostess will also remain in a seat near the fireplace, next to the scales on the mantle. At lunch, the doors will open to bring in a large meal on an automatically rolling buffet, and at 3 PM, tea and finger sandwiches will be served. You'll be able to enjoy the trial in comfort, of course, but the information cards set out on tables will not allow you to forget your true purpose here.

At 7 PM, the trial will adjourn for the day. Players will be escorted by the Hostess to the ballroom, where dinner and wine will be served until 10 PM, at which point players will be required to return to their wings in groups with their wingmates and will be locked in their bedrooms until 8:30 AM the following morning.]

[Okay good girl she was worried it was between herself and Touko there but either way--]

We all need to keep that in mind. This trial is looking a little difficult mechanically. We're going to need to take a very critical look at what the evidence implies to identify the culprit. Evidence is always more important than emotion in this game.
pandacea: (hmm | what's black and white and yellow?)

Yes...if Miss Susan is right about when Rin died, then we should examine the alibis more closely. The killer would have had to strike in a very short timeframe.
speakveryclearly: Kanaya grumbling with one hand pressed to her face. Jade lipstick. (Frustration)

Is there anyone actually not accounted for at the time of death...?
pandacea: (eh? | look it up in the dictionary)

Miss Touko claims to have been out in the courtyard and garden around that time. Can anyone account for this?
speakveryclearly: Kanaya glowing and not sure what else to do with herself; with a flat expression, she has just arrived on the scene. (Arrival)

Don't ask me, ask the crowd - I was in the kitchen with Kaoru.
