MOCK TRIAL WEEK 1

[consolemods]

So, after the sheriff's little introduction, you've got a better idea of why you're here... and outside of the more bloody-minded players present, it's probably not one you're terribly enthused about. Nevertheless, you're here, you're not leaving, and you've got a few rules to follow... but aside from that, you're basically left to your own devices. You can visit any of the locations in the town, and you do get complementary meals at the inn for breakfast, lunch, and dinner... but the question of whether someone will go ahead and kill hangs over the town like a dense fog.

Well, nobody's dead yet. But how long, exactly, will that last?

25 PLAYERS REMAIN

Oh sure, that's what someone like that would say until they decide their own lives are threatened. Then, everyone else can go to hell so they can be the hero and save their own skin instead of just talking it out like they initially claim to support doing, right?

Please spare me the "enlightening" speech. When push comes to shove someone like you is no better than me, whether or not they have the power to back it up. If it's your life on the line you'll sacrifice whoever you have to to live on!

[stavros]

I think you just have a problem with projecting.

[helldestiny]

Uh huh.

[nuh uuuuuuuUUUUUh]

We'll see how long you'll keep your precious ~respect~ when push comes to shove. In the meantime, I'm going to see what that girl had in her pockets.

[stavros]

You're disgusting, you know that.

[helldestiny]

[A pause. It'd be easy to punch her, but--]

Is that so? Don't worry, I get it. Getting out and returning to what's important in the long run isn't as important as being ~better~ than me right now.

[Thanks for proving her point! NEENER NEENER NEENER NEENE-]

Anyways, what're you going to do about me getting her supplies from her? Insult me more? Maybe you'll attack me eventually because I so offend your sensibilities on what's right and wrong just by existing!

[Going towards where the body hangs now.]

That's what a hero like you does, right?

[stavros]

...I'll deal with you being what you've decided to be. Trying to get me to attack means we'll eventually have to come to blows over it, but you're being ridiculous.

[helldestiny]

Says the one who made a big fuss over nothing.

[carbide]

Are you two finished?

[She doesn't sound annoyed or impatient, but also, she's making a move to just check the body herself.]

[thegoddamnmissile]

[ And here's the dog, who seems super disappointed in you. ]

...Miss Sin. I want to go home and see Miss Lynne and Miss Kamila. But if I have to hurt people to do it? Then I don't deserve it. The only person you seem to care about is yourself and what you want.

[ Social Link reversed. ]

So go on and take them. But I think you'll find a lot of people who don't like you because of it and think you're an awful person. Because you're being one. I think I've heard my people call people like you "self-righteous." ...It'll get you in trouble. Maybe not here, but...

[ ...He thinks of Yomiel. He thinks of a man who was so bitter, so convinced he was right to destroy lives because he was hurt, that he ended up drowning in an abyss of despair. ]

...Eventually, you're going to be alone. And you won't have anyone to blame but yourself for the pile of corpses you find at your feet. You're the worst kind of person--the kind who thinks it's okay to hurt people just because you were hurt and you think you're right.

[ ...He's not gonna stick around, because he knows he can't convince her. But maybe that'll sit uncomfortable with her and... Maybe get to her a bit. ]

[helldestiny]

..........

[Seriously? The dog? What does the dog have to judge her?]
