SECOND TRIAL
[ After sufficient time has passed, and you're all as ready to avenge dear Obi as you've ever been, Mayor Fontaine speaks. ]
Alright, that oughta do it. Pack up the evidence and head to the bathyspheres, same as last week.
[ There's yet again a line of spherical submersibles back there, ready to take off as the citizens of New Rapture climb aboard one or two at a time. And one at a time the bathyspheres descend into the abyss below New Rapture, deeper and deeper, once again to the dome on the seafloor, lit all around by bio-luminescent... slugs, of some kind? They're a little closer today.
The ring of podiums still sits in the center, just like last week. Two more podiums are going to stand empty. Two more dead. By the end of the day, best case scenario? It'll be three.
The projector clicks on. Mayor Fontaine is as here as he's gonna be. ]
You all know why you're here. Night Knight is dead. And I know plenty of you liked him alright, so don't let him down, hm? Or do. I'm here if you have questions.

[PLEASE KNOW!!! THE THOUGHT IN HIS MIND IS THERE, IT IS!!! BUT THANKFULLY THE SENSATION OF OBI'S COLD AND STIFF BODY IN HIS ARMS IS KEEPING HIM FROM MAKING A GIANT FOOL OF HIMSELF.]
...But why would they help him? Those stab-wounds seemed pretty friggin' intentional. Once might be an accident, but that many times? From above and below?
I don't like how any of that sounds!

Or... maybe... someone else found Obi-san?
no subject
[ She offers that question to the room as a whole. ]
If you were seeking to help him, why not admit to it now?
