Fifth Trial, Day One

Week 6, Day 1 ‹ Trial ›

Saturday

victim

suspects

The time has come once more, to slip away from reality and immerse themselves in the courtroom of dreams. This time that trip happens to be into a very literal courtroom. The dolls are given spaces at the defense and prosecution's desks; facing one another. There is a table between them which contains the case's evidence.

Black, faceless spectors watch from the gallery, chanting for justice. You can hear-- among the garbled cries-- the names of all the suspects. Yuri, Rean, Merciless, Mitsuko and Mikami, as well as cries for Sting, the victim.

Naturall, Sheepy takes her place at the head of the court as their presiding Judge. Out comes the gavel and she starts banging it on the desk. The gallery slowly quiets and the courtroom becomes eerily silent, save for the sound of Sheepy's voice.

"All right, settle down... settle down~~ Court is now in session for the murder of Sting. Who is the culprit? It's time for us to find out~!"

Indeed, that would be quite peculiar.

[whowearsthesocks]

Can't imagine the two women on the list doing that much damage, either.

[sockmongoose]

Is that so?

[whowearsthesocks]

Do you think otherwise?

[sockmongoose]

I suppose it does seem that brute strength were involved and while both women are dangerous, they do not appear to possess that strength.

[whowearsthesocks]

Actually--I'm fairly certain Sting did. So, if he had been on the attack...

[sockmongoose]

[The doll pauses to consider that.]

I suppose he could do a great deal of damage.

[whowearsthesocks]

Exactly.

[The doll seems rather smug for a minute and then their shoulders drop a little.]

Though, why a sword? Wasn't he a hand to hand specialist?

[sockmongoose]

Perhaps his opponent was wielding a sword, or perhaps he decided to use the sword for some reason.

[whowearsthesocks]

If we're going by the defense theory why take a sword with you to the locker rooms?

[sockmongoose]

In that case, it might not have been defense after all.

[whowearsthesocks]

They lured him in?

[sockmongoose]

Perhaps by making suspicious sounds or some such gambit.

[whowearsthesocks]

What, by stomping their feet and yelling 'over here'?

[sockmongoose]

I do not know how they might have done it.

[whowearsthesocks]

They also could have been taking a shower.

[sockmongoose]

In the women's showers? Are you saying that the culprit was a woman?

[whowearsthesocks]

I think it would be safe to say that yes, it was.
