☆ WEEK TWO ( TRIAL - DAY ONE )

[raisingproject]

Trial Day #1

Saturday, Week 2

Victim

Suspects

Rise and shine, sleepyheads. At exactly 8 AM, characters will be automatically teleported to a place rather familiar to them. In fact, it seems that they were sent home! Congratulations, everyone, you've made it to the Good End-- for like, ten minutes, before they're immediately, once again, whisked away to the familiar courtrooms of last week, a world similar to the one they see in their magical phones. Soon enough, Fav, floating in front of a ginormous tree speaks up, grinning.

"April Fool's, pon~!" Because of course it would be a joke to actually send people home. "Don't worry, that joke doesn't cost any mana, so you don't have to worry about the mana drain, pon. As our apology, we'd like to offer you something else in return, pon."

And that offering is a pie in everyone's faces, no exception. "Anyway, jokes aside, today's trial is for the murder of Eliza Owens, otherwise known as Mystic Mirage, pon. You will have a break for dinner and sleep and then the trial will continue tomorrow morning! If you have any questions in regards to this trial, please feel free to let me know, and I'll try to answer it to the best of my abilities, pon! Of course, you're not allowed to ask me who the culprit is, because that would be unfair. So make sure to find the culprit and execute them properly, pon! You wouldn't want to kill an innocent person, would you?"

And now, on their magical phones, characters will finally be able to find the autopsy report as the discussion begins. At 8 PM, everyone will be dismissed to have dinner and go back to their rooms.

[Along with the evidence Edna provided, One also supplies photos of the blood trail outside of the Inn where the bowtie was found, and around three of Eliza's room, each from different angles. The presence of Eliza's two recovered Pokemon can be seen, as well as the stash of weapons on her dresser.]

[mikooon]

[WTF]

Those were all in her room!?

[ELIZA THE HELL]

[selfloving]

Yes.

As her letter mentioned bring a weapon on patrol, we have reason to believe the naginata was hers, as well.

[mikooon]

I swear, this gachapon machines wants us to kill each other-- we'll dispose of these weapons afterwards! Unless M shows her pretty face, in which, I suppose we can afford to lock them up somewhere if Fav so inclined to let us.

[selfloving]

Don't be so hasty. I'm not sure everyone will agree to that. Besides, who would carry the key?

[mikooon]

Me, of course!

[she literally cursed at everyone else to die like 5 minutes ago]

[selfloving]

[Her response is literally just a laugh. More of a chuckle, really.]

You have a strong desire to return home. Forgive me, but I would be worried myself.

[mikooon]

[Glad to entertain (???)]

Oh, what could a demure young lady such as myself do with such crude weapons? They don't fit my image. [Ah...]

[selfloving]

Beggars can't be choosers.

Though having heard what you wrote about your outfits, I can believe you'd accessorize your weapons.

[perfectbeing]

She had me identify a naginata for her on Monday, as she had obtained one but did not know what type of weapon it was. If you didn't find it in her room, then yes, the one recovered may be one in the same.

[selfloving]

Thank you. It's likely, then, that this is what she wanted to use to defend herself.

In that case, the killer chose to use her weapon instead of whatever they were carrying for some reason. [If, it's implied, they were carrying anything capable of making the first strike.]

You didn't recognize the naginata itself, did you? A specific weapon?

[perfectbeing]

I did recognize it, actually. I am familiar with a variety of weapons.

[He is aware that this sort of knowledge does not paint him in a favorable light, but he seems confident enough about revealing it.]

[selfloving]

Sorry. Perhaps I misspoke.

I meant, is this specific naginata one that is familiar to you? Might it have belonged to someone you recognized?

[perfectbeing]

Ah, I see. I can't say the weapon itself was recognizable as belonging to anyone I know.

[selfloving]

Ah, well. Thank you again. There's no way of knowing if these items once belonged to someone else without verification.

If you're familiar with them, have you used one before?
