FIRST TRIAL

Honestly, if all you're going to do now is try to smoke out the castle I think it's time for a trial.

A trial, yes, a trial, Alice! Let's find out who it is. Come to the stairwell, everyone. I'm feeling better so I'll even be able to meet you there.

[The wall at the top of the stairwell is gone by the time everyone arrives. In it's place is a giant teacup being held by a doll's hand. For some reason it has a hinged door that swings out and closes shut once everyone gets in. It's big enough to hold everyone inside comfortably. Well, at least, as comfortable as you can get with a possible murderer in your midst.

While there are buttons for various other 'floors' in the castle none of them currently work. It takes a moment before the giant doll arm begins lowering. The visible area around you is just a dirt hole. It's as if you're descending down a rabbit hole as the teacup starts to descend quickly.

Eventually the teacup lands with a thunk in a room that's definitely more suitable as a place for a party than a park. It's a large outdoor room with great hedges surrounding the entire area. White roses dripping red paint (blood?) stand out among the green foliage. In an elevated area, safe from any potential angry 'friends, the Alices can be seen behind a desk emblazoned with a familiar symbol.

Down on ground level, though, there's a circle of podiums with a copy of your portrait to tell you where to stand. Both Ib and Violet's portraits are currently crossed out in red.]


Welcome to the trial room! Well, trial court? Mm... doesn't matter, I guess. I'm feeling better today so I'm glad that I can at least make sure that someone doesn't mess everything up for everyone.

[The cat, in Alice form, looks away.]

That said, time to find out who killed Violet. Trial, begin!

[Mizuki is relatively nearby and is SO firm in her approval of this display that when a somewhat larger piece gets over near her, she KICKS IT BACK so Seven can stomp it himself again]

[...everyone's giving him mixed signals. Franziska begging him to stop. Neku's complacency. Mizuki's encouragement.

Was what he was doing truly right or was it going to drag him further towards a true monster?

...When he stopped, his whole body had gone practically limp.]

I think... It's not good to get rid of things from your family.

[Like she does feel bad about all this violence.]

But you don't have to think of her as your family if you don't want to. Not because you weren't related or only knew each other a little while... but because she lied to you and hurt people.

...I told her she reminded me of One... [He snickered, sorrowfully.] When those memories were taken away, she didn't have that familiarity that I saw in her before. Perhaps that was a sign...

Am I supposed to be Six now?

[This makes her very nervous! It's not ballet!]

It's normal to want a family when you don't have one. But I think a "new family" is the better way to go. And then you can do whatever you want.

Heh... I couldn't say you were even as a joke. You're right... I need... more. Not replacements.
