day six - trial.

[foxhounds]

SHIP-TRAP day six 15 players remaining The bell rings for dinner at 6PM, and you're lead to that familiar door once again. The door opens with a sensation of warm, humid air, and there's the sight of a open staircase winding down. Ivan ushers you into an open cave before she locks the door after everyone. A large table is inexplicably set for as many places as there are people. You'll find dinner already set (though those that requested something else will receive that), and for those that have already were killed on previous days, you'll find their meal replaced with a framed portrait sketched in pencil. As you come to your conclusions about who to vote for, you can approach a table in a room to the side and write your vote before placing it in an ornate box. When you place your vote, there's the sound of a deep bell tolling. When you return to your place at the table, you'll find a glass of port waiting for you. You have until 9PM to discuss and vote for who you think The General is. rulebook character statuses character profiles graveyard Voting will close at 9 PM EST on 8/28. Voting

I know we've tried this in the past and failed but I'd like to get a tally of the votes. Whatever way it's going, I think it's best if we know now instead of waiting until time runs out. [ Enough people should have made their decisions for this to be feasible. ]

We should give whoever is going to be executed more time to say their goodbyes and prepare themselves for what's going to happen. It's the least we can do for them, no matter what their alignment is.

Just a name is fine.

I'm going to abstain from voting. I'm sure everyone thinks I'm guilty, after all, and I can't decide who else I'd vote for.

[hopefragment]

Bols. I understand the arguments toward Rei, but I can't... I have to believe in her.

[accomplices]

[...]

Rei.

[urameshiya]

Rei.

[She doesn't know Rei that well, but after thinking about everything that Pearl, Fuuma and Auger have said...]

I think you all have good points, and I don't have anyone else to suggest, so...yeah.

[out_of_the_kitchen]

...I don't know. I don't want to vote for Ms. Hazama, but... I don't really want to vote for anyone else, either....

[ This is why he's been voting for himself! ]

[x_over]

Rei Hazama. [ But also - ] Those who are abstaining from voting or voting for a different name, consider voting for Royce Melborn. One vote should do.

[ If it's invalid, then he's probably dead. But if the vote goes through... ]

[ghettobatman]

..I hadn't considered that.

[out_of_the_kitchen]

...I'll vote for him.

[ghettobatman]

Then that's enough. Let's not have too many people voting for Royce.

[in case he is alive.]

[pearlturbed]

Miss Hazama. Though I'm sure that was already clear.

[ guess who stopped giving a fuck pearl stopped giving a fuck ]

[ghettobatman]

[Matt's silent, looking pretty conflicted. Rei's behaviors are odd and she's suspicious, but he's not sure he can bring himself to vote for a teenaged girl in a wheelchair.]

[hopefragment]

Matt...

[You don't believe it, right?]

[ghettobatman]

[Hand on shoulder!!!]

I know you want to believe in her.

[hopefragment]

[Hinata's going to try to step back, shaking his head. Don't touch him right now. :(]

I do believe in her. I don't think she's a general, I really don't. Isn't the person who tried to get everyone to vote for him, but killed an innocent person, really suspicious?

[ghettobatman]

[Well, he'll let him. If Hinata doesn't want dadding, then he won't force it...!! Right now]

Bols is suspicious. Even if he's not a General, he's still dangerous.

[BUT....] There are things about Rei's behavior that don't add up.

[hopefragment]

Maybe, but-!

[But he likes her, dad. It's different when he likes someone and they're not saying it's fine to vote for them.]

[ghettobatman]

And there are many things she won't answer. I've given her ample opportunity to defend herself. And I'd like to believe in her, but....

[hopefragment]

I know... I...

I know.

[Not that Matt can see, but Hinata's ducking his head. It really sounds like he's close to tears.]

[ghettobatman]

[THIS IS KILLING HIM.]

...Hinata... I'm sorry.

[unrulyprincess]

[Clarine also looks conflicted, ducking her head and hiding her eyes with her bangs.

She just doesn't know.

Rei had been a good friend, if a little timid. But now........]

[believesin]

[Rena is hesitant. She likes Rei, and she doesn't want to believe Rei is a General. On the other hand, the arguments are sound, and there doesn't appear to be a better option at the moment.]


...Hazama-san. I think...? [Rena is obviously not 100% committed to this choice yet.]

[hopefragment]

Rena...

I know I'm biased, and you don't... you don't have to believe me, but I don't think Rei is a general. I think... I think it's more likely that Bols is. So... if you're uncertain...

[believesin]

I think Bols-san is suspicious, too, but no one has made a lot of arguments about him. [And Rei won't address some concerns at all.]
