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!]

Thank you, Teru Mikami. That's what I was thinking.
So, with that alibi no longer holding any weight... Ango. It certainly is looking likely that this was your doing. Care to share what you were doing out so late?
[He sounds remarkably calm given how worked up he's been all trial, but that is not a nice smile.]

he doesn't trust iago to not go completely stupid on someone's ass and he wants to stop that shit before it starts.]
Iago. Breathe, if you will.
no subject
[Doesn't mean he won't be aggressive in finding the killer, but he's staying put, don't worry. Please don't threaten him with that weird blade.]

Secondly, I was speaking with Rembrandt. When our conversation was done, I went back to the dorms.
no subject
But fine. If you want to hinge it all on Rembrandt, I'll ask him.
no subject
But yes, go ahead and ask him.
no subject
Rembrandt did confirm that the two of you spoke, but he couldn't confirm for how long. That doesn't help you any. There is one thing we haven't discussed at all, however: the motive.
[And then, to Rean, Seteth, and Dazai:] Did any of you notice Ango acting strangely at any point after the motive?

no subject
What did you and Rembrandt talk about?
[since rembrandt won't tell him these things!!!]
no subject
Ango glances in the Lady's direction, and he's not quite as subtle about it as he usually is. Because if he did that then Iago might miss the implication entirely.]
Art. We talked about art.
no subject
So he'll let it drop, but this is the equivalent of "points at eyes, points at Ango", okay!!]

...if ango isn't guilty he might actually have to apologize, ugh.]
