FIRST TRIAL

First Show


The show starts with not a bang, but smoke, and the exit of Diluc and Fujino stage left. Once everyone's had some time to poke around the circus and examine what happened last night, Joker calls everyone to the Main Tent. (Those who would try to ignore the summons will find themselves magically rerouted no matter how hard they try.)

Inside the stands look much like they did over the week, although spotlights are trained on some of the profiles in particular. Twelve of them, actually.

In the middle on the raised platform, Joker stands with Gina, grinning ear to ear.





[[Welcome to your first trial! You will have 8 hours (8PM EST) to find out whodunnit. You may vote for any of the suspects at anytime prior to the end of trial, and you are free to change your vote as many times as you like.

About halfway through the trial, there will be the opportunity for room searches for four(4) of the suspects. ]]

Yes, and hand-eye coordination if the two of them were bouncing around, as Yura suggested.

Of course, given that a number of us clearly have some sort of power that the circus graciously allowed us to keep, that doesn't necessarily rule anyone out by size either.

Also true, but I believe some of us might still be incapable of physical feats.

[looking at u, mr. can't even lift 20 pounds]

Bouncing into the attack might make it require less strength, but it wouldn't remove that factor entirely, would it?

[he is not very helpful.]

No, not when it comes to [ugh] driving the weapon through someone's ribcage.

[yw, he is here to support other old men with shiny black hair]

So, which of us twelve is physically capable and coordinated enough for this...

And who would decide to summon a "narwhal" for this purpose, as well.

I admit I don't even know what a "narwhal" is... not that saying that means much, of course. I could be lying about that.

But as to being physically capable...

[Well. Just look at him.]

I can't say I'm familiar with them, either...

[a beat]

But I don't think you have to worry about anyone thinking you were capable of murdering Diluc.

I appreciate your support.
