Heyyyyyyyyy, Strangers! How's Valentine's Day going? Unfortunately we have to start the trial soon if you want to get any dinner dates in before midnight!

I know some of you have a very special day near today, too! So let’s get a move on, shall we? You know the drill! Though you know… since we saw one of those clues, you can bring your pets in today.

[And so it is. Just like last week, the elevator shoots everyone down to the trial room. Lala's podium, now, is Xed out in red. And like last week, five of the podiums' dot matrix name plates suddenly flash with a red border.]

THE BRITTLE
THE CIRCUIT
THE ENEMY
THE NOODLES
THE UNKNOWN
[And clashing with the borders whether red or not, on each Stranger’s podium is a little piece of candy: A gray heart, printed with a message in nearly black capitals. These candies are similar to the pills in that they taste like nothing at all rather than sand; while a pill is meant to serve as a full meal, one candy is about as filling as a single apple.

The messages are as follows.]



KING:
BEST
FRIEND
ARTHUR:
LOOKING
GOOD
OSOMATSU:
ONE OF
A KIND
ESTELLE:
BRIGHT
SPARK
MCBURN:
NEVER
MEANDER
JONATHAN:
DOUBLE
THE FUN
AMBROSINE:
QUEEN OF
MY HEART
CALEB:
HOT
KARMA:
YOU’RE
A DOLL
VITA:
TRUE
BLUE
BEAUTY
KURAMA:
FOXY
ERIC:
SEW NICE

I'd call what you had to look at "inhumane", but Lala Hagoromo wasn't human, was she?

Now, now, Hiyori. I’m not human, either.

Doesn't change how sad it is that she lost her chance to be happy... Oh, why don't you give them a good look at what you have there, Link?

[Link holds up the heart labeled "OUT OF / THIS WORLD". The hosts are visible behind the glass of their sterile observation room this time by the way.]

We made too many because we hoped all of you would finally join in on the fun by today... So, if you retire, culprit, you can eat this one!

[...Well, maybe the evidence will cause the Hosts to eat their words. BOOM. Burn........or...well, it doesn't matter. The clock is ticking.


The trial for the murder of Lala Hagoromo, The Chance, has begun.]

I knew it.

[HE FUCKING CALLED IT YET AGAIN!]

Now TALK!

[King slams Kyuubey against the pedestal, not caring about the damage that could be done. Why? Because fuck this creature.]

Let's start with a... simple question.

Did you move any of the evidence that we either have or have not found?
necroyalty: (they'll smile and scrabble slowly by)

[personal profile] necroyalty 2020-02-15 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
...three of the chairs in the dining room were disturbed.

I wasn't able to tell what with, but...

[personal profile] katzenpfote 2020-02-15 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[Always the fucking chair -]

How far, do you think?
necroyalty: (spooky scary skeletoooooons)

[personal profile] necroyalty 2020-02-15 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Not too far from the blood pool. They were pulled out...

Actually, it's a bit like someone had thrown them back.

Since you are being a little more agreeable than the mongrel is at the moment, I did not.
katzenpfote: (annoyed)

[personal profile] katzenpfote 2020-02-15 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
All right.

[Probably a lie, but he can work with it.]

You were with her last night. What did you do?
cuteandinnocentpet: (Default)

[personal profile] cuteandinnocentpet 2020-02-15 07:48 pm (UTC)(link)
She talked to me, of course. She did that quite a bit!

What. Happened.

And it better be the truth! There's worse things than dying, you know!

[Is...is he threatening to torture the thing? He is indeed! Because he has no more patience.]

[He just looks at King.]

May I?
unwittingking: (...what)

[personal profile] unwittingking 2020-02-15 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[He'll look to Caleb and nod.]

Be my guest. Tell me if you want to keep him down, though.

[Because he's not letting this thing go when he's got a good grip on it.]
unwittingking: (...what)

[personal profile] unwittingking 2020-02-15 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
So you want to try living without your eyes? Or maybe going without a limb or two? Is that what you want?

[He's just seething with hatred, and this time? No one can say it's not justified. This thing did something, and they all know it. He just needs to figure out what.]
cuteandinnocentpet: (kyuu...)

[personal profile] cuteandinnocentpet 2020-02-15 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, King. You really don't understand how we work! Pain doesn't have the same effect on us as it would you!

cw: limb injury???

Did you cooperate with whoever killed Lala?

Might as well answer so everyone's not yelling at you for the entire trial.

[You know those puzzles where you have to slide the pieces around without being able to lift them, how sometimes they'll almost solve themselves once you've got a few pieces aligned?

Yeah, Jonathan's mind just did that with some of what King and Caleb have said, both to him and just where he could hear... with that, and with memory of Naoya's careful word games.
