SECOND TRIAL

Trial II


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!]

Are you serious? It can transmit electricity. Drowning by electrocution could explain why there wasn't a struggle.

It's not really electricity.
pr159: (you can't change the system)

[personal profile] pr159 2020-01-18 08:16 pm (UTC)(link)
How does it power electrical devices, then?

It can't. He said he didn't try it, and I did!
pr159: (or let me put this another way)

[personal profile] pr159 2020-01-18 08:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe you just don't know how to use it.

I know how to use it, it's just like the power I have back home. I wouldn't make a mistake on something like that. [ His voice is now really flat, funstuff. ]
pr159: (sell us things which are already ours)

[personal profile] pr159 2020-01-18 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[ hm ]

Is that so? What did you use it for there?

[personal profile] puperoni 2020-01-18 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
It doesn't matter, and because it doesn't matter I'm not going to tell you.
pr159: (and i landed on my feet)

[personal profile] pr159 2020-01-18 08:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Noted. I'm free to assume you're lying, then.
puperoni: (27)

[personal profile] puperoni 2020-01-18 08:46 pm (UTC)(link)
I already told someone about that, like I said. If it's important later, they can say it. But right now it isn't, so there's nothing more to say.
pr159: (it's hard to care what they do)

[personal profile] pr159 2020-01-18 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
It's too bad that person doesn't care enough to come to your defense already, isn't it?

[ He shakes his head. ]

They know that I don't like to talk about it, so they wouldn't.
