☆ WEEK FIVE ( TRIAL - DAY ONE )

Trial Day #1

Saturday, Week 5

Victim

Suspects

With the beloved "leader" of the meetings dead, things seem a lot more grim than usual. But that doesn't show in the trial's background music, a rather cheery song that doesn't match the trial at all whatsoever. Which isn't exactly new, considering who's running the trial, but it is definitely a dishonor to the one that's died. Nevertheless, the show must go on.

"This is the trial for Eruna Ichinomiya, also known as Lady Zapper, pon," Fav notes, the same as always. Of course, there's a little difference in the trial area today. You can hear the slight sounds of static and even see the place glitch a bit every now and again. But what's more important than that is the fact that there seems to be a tree right behind the fountain now. A really, really huge tree. That wasn't there before. Someone must have redecorated.

Not that it changes much.

Who the fuck writes a diary in Latin?!

[Zange does, that's who.]

You know what-

[He waves the notebook in the air and shouts.]

CAN ANYONE WHO ISN'T A SUSPECT READ LATIN? THIS MIGHT BE IMPORTANT!

[crossingout]

[Sure, he's doing this in front of her but she isn't phased at all.]

Someone who is smarter than you, that's who. Do you honestly expect me to write in a language people understand so that when someone searches my room they'll be able to read all my intimate secrets?

[imitationsoul]

How many languages do you know?

[crossingout]

All of them. Japanese is the one I'm the most fluent at, though.

[imitationsoul]

[ .... seriously. ]

Are you sure that's a matter of being smart and not just of being supernatural?

[crossingout]

How rude. A goddess still has to learn things, you know.

[That's not answering the question, though.]

[enthrallingly]

Fine.

[Seraphina has this smile that just reeks of look at how useful I am.]

Let me see that. I'll read it for you.

[zackthekiller]

[So it's true. Demons are able to read Latin.]

Here ya go!

[crossingout]

[Since she's able to read it she'll find that the notebook is riddled in Latin numbers. With the exceptions of the names. LIKE HOLY SHIT, THESE ARE PAGES THAT ARE JUST WRITTEN IN LATIN NUMBERS.

Except for the first page, which reads:

This is for whom I wish to save.]

[enthrallingly]

[Her years have treated her well. Reading is not trouble-- just don't ask her to exert any physical effort.

...and okay, she just likes going through people's diaries and burn books.]

Let's see--

[So. What will her read through the notebook tell her?]

[crossingout]

[Well...]

[zackthekiller]

[Zack is curious and impatient.]

Well, what's it say?

[enthrallingly]

It says "This is for whom I wish to save." The rest is just a whole bunch of numbers.

[zackthekiller]

... Oooookay?!

Is she writing her diary in code or something?

[enthrallingly]

Who writes coding in Latin? If she wanted to have a numbered code, why not just do it with the normal set?

[theotherother]

The letters probably represent numbers, but you'd need a key to figure it out.

[He knows a little bit about how this works. Not a ton, but he does remember some stuff from dealing with the Assassin's Guild.]

[enthrallingly]

Oh. I hadn't considered something like that...

Still... I don't think we have time to sit and decode it at this stage of the game.

[theotherother]

Probably not, yeah.
