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:

"If you don't make this trial go like I want it, every single person in this room is getting vivisected!"

It has been a couple hours and she's still furious. It doesn't seem like her mood is going to improve anytime soon...if ever. Behind her, Rembrandt doesn't seem very impressed with her gratuitous threat. At least she probably won't get to make good on that threat, hm?

Let the trial for the death of Dist the Rose 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!]

He mentioned that to me as well, yes.

And anyone who is from a world similar to this would have some baseline familiarity with guns, even if they don't have experience using them.

That would be at the least myself, Dazai and Sakaguchi, but likely more.

[raventhaw]

A familiarity with guns and a knack for covering up their tracks relatively well. This killer knew what they were doing.

[deadlygoals]

If it was me or Ango, we wouldn't have left a bullet shell casing. Or the gun.

[ He's still holding both. ]

I also wouldn't have used a gun to kill considering I'm well versed in them.

[inordertobelieve]

You'd be dead if you were this inept, it's true.

[ So unlessssssss you're trying to mislead us.... but no. ]

[deadlygoals]

And you already know that I'd rather not die by their hands.

[ Looking over at the MMs. ]

That's why we have our little arrangement after all.

[inordertobelieve]

Yes. Though you're one of the group of gun-users and have a despicable 'career', I'd at least be surprised if it were you.

[deadlygoals]

[ He's going to take that as a compliment. ]

I also wanted Dist alive. He was starting to get interesting and he was useful.

[pr159]

Guns were a part of my agent training, though they're obviously not my preferred weapon.

[galrarm]

Being part of the military, I'm also familiar with guns, but I prefer not using them.

[notbymyside]

As Dazai-kun said, if it were me then I wouldn't have left the gun or the casings behind. I also wouldn't have shot someone anyway, given the limited number of both guns and people who can use guns. A knife is preferable in this situation.
