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.]

[Oh Lithuania you hit a nerve.]

You shut up!

[vytis]

[Oh, so that's the problem, okay. Man, it would be easier if Lithuania knew these other nations outside of this situation so he would be able to deal with these problems in a way that doesn't involve all these dramatics.

Too bad he's never met any of them before this mansion!

He'll sound a little more gentle now, though.]

Bringing it up over and over and holding people accountable for it forever isn't going to help anything. It's obviously not making you feel any better. Miss Maryam's item can save her dying race--you know that's not the same as what happened last week.

[Because Poland is a nation. Even with his muddled memories, Lithuania knows how childish and ridiculous nations can act a lot of the time, but he also knows they all have it in them to be serious when they want to be.]

We know what the results of this week's voting are going to be. This should be where you stop bringing up Miss Takami's trial.

[Poland silently grits his teeth, balls his fists at his sides and stomps his foot on the ground. All very serious and very mature reactions for him to make as the Republic of Poland.

But he's angry and he's upset still and he doesn't know how else to deal with it because when it comes down to it

He's really just angry at himself for helping to let Ukraine get scapegoated. Sure Annie was the real murderer and Kanaya accused Ukraine in the final hour and Susan believed it and the tide of the trial turned-- but he also didn't get it right.

And being on trial himself he didn't stand up for Ukraine in the end either.]
