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:

"After the fiasco somebody I won't name caused yesterday, I'm glad to see someone else had the courage to do what was needed. This time it's a valid murder. To the culprit: I wish you good luck, darling. Let's see you get away with this murder."

Someone seems to be pleased, unfortunately. Anything that makes the Lady pleased can't be good, can it?

Let the trial for the death of Olivert Reise Arnor and Sirius 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!]

No one alive, unless one of our holdouts wants to volunteer.

[promittere]

I have it.

[pr159]

[ wow that was easy ]

Well, thank you for coming forward, then. Care to give us a demonstration?

[promittere]

Of course...

[Going to approach the clone! Hey there, buddy, hope you don't mind Ignis getting all up in there to put his hand on your arm.

He begins to drain energy from the clone, a mark that looks like frostbite beginning to form under his fingers. The clone also will start looking tired and faint, though he doesn't drain enough to cause it to pass out.]

[p_q]

See if you can drain it until it dissolves.

[moonfang]

Hold on, let the smarty-pants crew check out the mark it made, first.

[p_q]

Hmph.

[Waiting is for the birds??]

[deadlygoals]

[ Looking at this. ]

That confirms something else... Sirius helped kill Olivert.

[drydrown]

Unless the welt was from him trying to transfer energy into him - does it leave marks both ways?

[deadlygoals]

There's a way to find out. Ignis? Try giving me the energy.

MOD CLARIFICATION

[umbralant]

[The moment the energy drain starts, the doppelganger collapses into a pile of sludge with Shin's colors. And if Ignis isn't quick enough to move his hand away, he might get a bit of the paint-like substance on his hand, too.

Also watch your feet because that stuff's gonna spread and ruin some shoes if you're not careful!]

[deadlygoals]

[ Ah. ]

Ulquiorra is right. Sirius killed the doppelganger.

[raventhaw]

Well, there we go.

[pr159]

[ LIKE, NOT THAT HE'S GOING TO DIG THROUGH IT, BUT. His pills aren't there in the goo, right. ]

[umbralant]

[...there may be the tip of a pill sticking out of the goo.]

[pr159]

[ nope nope he doesn't need it that badly ]

[p_q]

[He's standing nice and far away, thanks. He ain't about the sludge life, unlike some Hollows he could name.]

Re: MOD CLARIFICATION

[twoasone]

[FROWN. now the slush is all over. Everything.]

[notbymyside]

[He just. Looks down at the slush.

And then over to Shin.]

Can you explain what happened last night, at least?
