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.
[ Welcome to your second trial. ]

She swallows thickly.]
H-he'd tell me to keep my head up. Be brave. Know that...that I was doing what was right.
[She crosses over to Della and falls down to her knees so she can pull the duck into a hug.]
Thank you so much. For everything.

But, in this little moment, she softly sings: ] Look to the stars, my darling baby boys
Life is strange and vast,
Filled with wonders and joys.
Face each new sun with eyes clear and true,
Unafraid of the unknown,
Because I'll face it all with you.
[ It doesn't all fit. Not one bit. But it's a lullaby, gentle and clear. That's all it need be. ]

She's going to miss this so much. Or she would, if she wasn't about to be obliterated.
Slowly, Alice rises, giving Della a shaky smile.]
Thanks for everything, Della Duck.
no subject
I just wish I could've done more.
