SECOND TRIAL
Time's up, boys and girls. Please gather up your evidence and make your way to the vault door.
[ The process of heading to the elevator and crowding in remains the same as last week - Angel leads you all to the elevator car, then stays behind as you make your slow descent to the dome below. You might not even notice if you aren't paying attention, but... the cart is already less crowded than it was last week. You certainly won't be able to avoid noticing it if your numbers dwindle too much further than this.
When the doors open on the trial room, it's just as bleak a place as last week. ]
Take your places, won't you? And this time, you all know what's at stake. No more... funny business.
[The number of podiums displaying that red light is higher now - Damien, Lif, and Piers are all represented by blank spots now, no tasteful covers or anything normal to mark their passing, just a red glow and a gap in your number.
Cheery!
The screens raise up to the ceiling to give you all room to see, and the Professor's final words before the trial begins ring out: ]
Find the killer, leave alive. And killer? Try a little harder to stop them from doing that than the last one in your shoes. Call out for me if you require anything.

no subject
[Alice wasn't expecting that. Not at all. Her slender frame is cold as ice, but she's trembling as she hugs Zaza back as tightly as she can manage. She mumbles into her shoulder:]
I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
no subject
[She doesn't know how to finish that sentence. What could she have done? Offered up her own blood? But Alice had said once she'd started she wouldn't have been able to stop. They'd still have ended up in here no matter what. Just like the Professor intended.
So she just hugs her for as long and tightly as she can, her chin touching the top of the smaller woman's head, until the call to vote comes.]
