From what you can see, all the lights in the opera house are turned on. Only when you enter and see the open doors that lead into the main theater, you can see that room's lights are currently turned off. It's very dark in there.

Like before, Rembrandt escorts everybody to the stage. In the dark you still can see the many blue-eyed things you may be getting used to. They're still very scared of Rembrandt, staying as far away from the assistant as possible. The stage is illuminated by the spotlights, the only light in this theater.

The Lady and Rembrandt are at their balcony. She stands up, addressing the group:

"This time we don't need any introductions, do we? Let's make this an interesting trial, just like last week. Give me a name! Who is the killer this time?"

Short and sweet. Will the Lady give you that offer later? Only time will tell.

Let the trial for the death of Lysithea von Ordelia begin.

[OOC NOTE: From the halfway point of the trial and onwards, you'll have the option to ask the masterminds for the chance to get a hint! Be warned, though: the price will involve some body horror for your character. Keep that in mind when deciding to use this option!]

Except as far as I've been able to tell, you have to be in direct physical contact with blood to be able to control it. Granted, I've experimented more with the healing aspect of the ability than anything else, so I can't say I'm an expert on this, but it seems unlikely that she could have controlled the blood inside all of those fish at once unless they were all already bleeding out into the tank.

[raventhaw]

Interesting. Thank you for clarifying.

[ there's a little glint in her eye... ]

I still do believe she was testing something. Perhaps not that, but something else.

[p_q]

I suggest you demonstrate so we waste less time here.

[I mean, they do have fish chunks. Is he asking nicely? No. Is he kind of curious to see it? There's nothing in his posture to suggest it except the suggestion itself.]

[pr159]

I'm sorry, you want me to prove a negative for you?

[p_q]

No. I am wondering if you have the imagination to interact with the fish the way the girl did.

[pr159]

I'm really not seeing how a discussion of whether or not I could have theoretically considered blowing up fish is going to be productive here.

[p_q]

You offered yourself up as one of the Sanguis users, did you not? Then it falls on you, unless you wish to spend more hours listening to fools prattle.

[Congratulations, you've acquired the title: Voluntary Guinea Pig.]

There must be some way that all of the fish were affected.

[drydrown]

Could she have done anything with the blood already in the water? Aside from the cut on her hand, she was also stabbed in the back.

[pr159]

With her own, yes, I would assume so. I suppose if the fish ingested hers from the water while she was still conscious...?
