The show must go on, with nineteen performers where there once was twenty-one. Joker calls everyone to the tent much like last week, though this time there are eight spotlights instead of twelve. Better odds, perhaps.

Whether fate of Zelos lingers on your mind or not, the consequences of your votes are clear now. Maybe though, there's some comfort in knowing that soon this entire circus will soon be behind you. Right?





[[Welcome to your second 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 three(3) of the suspects. ]]

No.

[ No reason to pretend otherwise. ]

Then you know very little about Joker and what he has done. You have no idea if his deeds require that he pay for them with his life. I know much more.

He has made very stupid decisions, but his motives are not dishonorable.

[tragedi]

[ ... now this is something they will not ever see eye to eye on, especially as fury rages like a tempest in that ice-cold blue eye of his. ]

...And what of the children that were sacrificed?! Did they deserve their ends? Is that not 'dishonorable'?

Do not act as if you know far more than I do when that man has swindled you with his decrepit sob stories!

[inthelineofdanir]

[Oh no. Don't you start!!!! Milla's expression goes dark. Don't you treat her like a child!!!!]

I never said that the children killed deserved their ends! But it is stupid to think you understand everything from one memory!

[Sorry Joker you're getting doxxed]

Owing someone a life-debt is a heavy burden. Carrying others' life-debts are even heavier. Tell me you would have sacrificed your own family if you had been in that position!

[tragedi]

...they're already dead. Your point is meaningless.

[ For his family he would've done wretched things, he thinks. It's easier to think of killing someone on a battlefield, no matter their age or gender. But something like this...

He can't wrap his head around it. Dimitri wonders if it is true, if his family were still alive, that he'd consider it. Though then he thinks of the children still...it's not something he has ever thought of, and it is bringing on a headache; he thinks that his father would have begged him instead to save the children. What about his stepmother? A crushing headache and the voices of the damned growing louder and louder.

He can't even think straight. ]

I would kill like a beast, I would even take the life of any who dares to get in my way, no matter who it is. Crush them all without mercy! ... But, this. You still defend him, as if he has any right.

[ He turns his back to her. ]

I will enjoy every single moment of pain he experiences. From beginning...to end.

[ Then, the beast of a royal man heads on out. ]

[Why is she trying to argue with a Wilder? It's a question she'd ask herself as Dimitri starts to leave but then lol she's getting thrown by Diluc

Today's apparently just one of those days!!!!]
