FOURTH TRIAL

[bathymetric]

Alright, that's quite enough time. Move along towards the trial, if you would all be so kind. You know what's coming.

[ It's routine by now - go to the vault door, get let into the elevator by Angel, head down to the trial room... it's hard not to notice the losses on the ride down by now, though. Your numbers are starting to really dwindle, even if you're often spread out enough not to notice as much normally. The trial room and its podiums, too, seem more than ready and willing to remind you of the same. The red glow of the empty spaces is constant, potentially unnerving. ]

Remember that as there are two victims to consider, up to two votes may be counted at the end of proceedings. As always, I am but a direct address away, however rude you choose to make it.

Find the party or parties responsible for the deaths of your comrades. And to those parties: Good luck.

[ The screens rise!

Welcome to your fourth trial. ]

Comments

[archboxer]

That might be worth looking into.

[emberserker]

Oh, don't tell me.

ARM CHECK

[archboxer]

I am afraid so, Anna. Just the arms and hands this time. Everyone, I suggest rolling up your sleeves.

[archboxer]

[She's not wearing her gown for once and her arms are bare because of it. And there's nothing out of the ordinary. Her hands are also clean.]

[blackmass]

[SIGH]

[Kirei's uninjured, just the same weird jagged scars from the last wound check.]

[bolderfell]

[Sighing, even though he was the one who suggested this last week, Therion brings his arms out from under his cloak and pushes up his sleeves. There's the shackle on his wrist and plenty of scars, but no new injuries.]

[mouflon]

[ As per usual, Rin is in her tank top!! So her arms are obviously free of wounds. ]

[valentinus]

[ His hands and arms (including one metal) are fine, and he had pulled aside his cloak a little to help it along a bit, which easily exposed his arms. ]

[philoxenia]

[ arms and hands are clean and free of wounds! ]

[bogwife]

[Real shirts and sleeves are Zerinda's kryptonite so her arms and hands are clean and uninjured if lightly scarred.]

[thieviusraccoonus]

[Well

Sly'y got a lot of fur on his arms, but he wears his sleeves rolled up anyway so it's easy to see that they're uninjured.]

[lovelikeyou]

[Things like this don't necessarily make sense with Gems, but as per usual, Rose is fine with going along to get along! She's in her sleeveless dress, of course, so it's pretty easy to see that her arms are unblemished.]

[ladygeryon]

[She's wearing short sleeves, but inspection will show no wounds and oddly rocky skin.]

[nothingcanstop]

[ Della slides off her jacket to reveal a green tank top and no injuries. Might take a bit of a closer look to discern this, since she's covered in feathers, but she doesn't fuss about it. ]

[reallyhatesharks]

[Nova shrugs off the leather jacket she arrived in, and she's only wearing the bikini top from her swimsuit underneath so you're free to get real up and personal with her skin.

Which is perfectly blemish-free, thanks.]

[fivestagegod]

[He's uninjured as well; he generally always has long sleeves on but he'll roll them up with no argument and a lot of eyerolling.]

[hardnosed]

[ It probably goes without saying, but Jasper's very obviously clean! Her arms are out all the time, anyway, so this gun show is all-access and you'd notice anything different or off. ]

[emberserker]

[Anna sighs, takes off her jacket, and pulls up her sleeves. No injuries.]
