FIRST TRIAL

[despairection]

[The moon has gone back into the sky and Mac Graziano, the Super High School Level Boxer, is the reason for it. The champ-to-be was found in front of the Theater by his classmates.

Once the announcement sounds, large green pipes appear in front of the students. Going down these pipes will place students in an empty but spacious courtroom. In the center is a circle of 15 wooden podiums. 14 stand empty. Standing at the 15th is a framed photo of Mac in the middle of a tremendous uppercut, with a pink X slashed across it.

There is a podium for each student with their names engraved on bronze-looking plaques on the front of each podium. On the inside, facing the stool where students have the option to sit, is a screen and keyboard. These will be used in voting for the assumed culprit.

What will their collected evidence tell them? Will the truth be revealed or will only one leaving the campground?

14 students remain.]



[Let the class trial in the murder of Mac Graziano...begin.]



[ooc: Welcome to the first trial, dearies! The podium chart is set up by room numbers. Please ping me on Plurk if something comes up that requires mod clarification!]

Hinawa...

[Damn that bear. Of all the people he had to bring here, it had to be Hinawa and the children. None of them deserves to be here, but those three especially. They were either too young or too innocent. Just seeing Hinawa break down like this was difficult to watch, but... It's not like the alternative was much better.]

If we allow him to go free, then we all die. Everything up until now will have been for nothing and the ones Dark Pit just saved might be next. Monobear won't stop until we stop him.

I can't condemn him. He's not a murderer. He was scared!

[Hinawa knows that Clair is right, that she can argue until she's blue in the face but it won't make any difference. But the alternative is too horrible for her to comprehend.]

[superstylishschism]

He looks young, but...he's an angel. He's probably more mature than you think. He's already accepted his fate, so the best thing you can do for him is make sure he doesn't have any more lives on his conscience than he already does.

[sunflowerfields]

But... but I...

[Why does everyone have to keep making sense. She doesn't want this to make sense. So she just sputters 'but' a few more times.]

[superstylishschism]

Just...honor his wish to keep his dignity, alright? I don't think he wants people to get themselves hurt trying to protect him.

[sunflowerfields]

[She's a mom, protecting people is what she does.]

Honor him...?

[All children grow up someday. She can't protect them forever.]

I... all right.
