FIFTH TRIAL

Trial V


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!]

By "early", he means "before ten". I wake up at four in the morning and I like to get at least some sleep.

What a funny way of phrasing it. Who the heck says "before ten" is early? [ A shake of his head. ]

Anyway, last question! Would you say you're a heavy sleeper or a light one?
drydrown: those shoes with that dress though (EHHH ♡ now wait just a minute)

...I tend to sleep fairly heavily, to be fair. But I think I would notice someone leaving or entering the room.

[...okay look he has not yet experienced Mantaic and so has no real way to gauge what he is capable of sleeping through and what he isn't]

[ Thoughtful handchin!! ] I said last question, but... maybe not.

Did Mikami leave to clean-up or anything right before you guys went to bed? And how much did you talk before then?

How is what we discussed relevant?
bawcock: (♪ never meant to do those things to you)

[personal profile] bawcock 2020-02-08 08:23 pm (UTC)(link)
It might not be. I'm wondering more about how he acted than what was said, but there's no telling how relevant that is either.
drydrown: we have no use for you here (TCH ♡ looks like you've been busy)

[personal profile] drydrown 2020-02-08 08:26 pm (UTC)(link)
...Somehow I doubt we're going to get very far based on whomever's acting guilty. There are maybe three of us that would bother under good circumstances.

[personal profile] bawcock 2020-02-08 08:37 pm (UTC)(link)
I agree with you there. I wasn't talking about guilt, but if he was acting normal then that's all the answer I need.

[...how do you quantify - ]

He was Teru Mikami about things. He's the most awkward person alive when he's in my room, just in general.

[ JUST LOOKING AWAY. Way to make him feel kind of stupid. ]

[oh come on don't be like that

you're just kind of that weird kid that's never been to a sleepover in his life, it's endearing]
