Fifth Trial

[imthetrashman]

[Fizzy, Centipeedle, and Ginger's pedestals have all been replaced by headstones that say "died for King Dice's sins"

King Dice is currently selling t shirts that say "RIP King Dice" on it.]

Hurry up, we'll be holdin' funeral services for King Dice once this is over!

My point is, you've made yourself look a little suspicious. You're the only one we know possessed an axe. You also have red hair, like the hair at the crime scene.

[in4apounding]

I- oh. Oh.

[Welp.]

Fizzy and Ginger and Miss Centipeedle were all my friends, though, I would never hurt them.

[candymancan]

Mhm. Sure. Even if that were the case, we've already had one case where someone was controlled by someone else and forced into homicidal action. Plus, technically speaking, there's the possibility that you only murdered one or two of them. One of those three might have killed the other or others, and you reacted in vengeance...? Or you merely saw an opportunity. Regardless, you are a suspect. Probably the biggest one we have right now.

[codeofhero]

A suspect. Nothing more.

[Not Penny. Not today.

He levels a glare at the "girl"]

Need I remind you that you seem to have red hair as well?

[candymancan]

You're right, I do. That doesn't change the facts- she has more evidence against her than the rest of us.

[codeofhero]

Hmmm, as I recall, the last trial we participated in, I was suspected for a large number of things. So, as we know... things are far more complicated than they appear.

[in4apounding]

Do you really think I would make everyone go through this kind of thing again, and not just confess and get it over with? For a fifth time?

[how fudging dare]

I didn't hurt anyone.

[GIRLS, YOU'RE BOTH HOT, DON'T FIGHT]

[in4apounding]

[gandhi please one of those girls is a creepy purple confectioner who might be a fey]

[candymancan]

We'll see, dear. We'll see.

[studentbody]

Seriously? No way, Audrey, Penny wouldn't hurt one of us. We're all her friends. She promised me she'd never.

[guess who can't tell which audrey is which]

Besides, you have red hair too!

[candymancan]

[Guess who's rolling with it] Yes, and I'm sure a promise in a place where people can murder each other is legally binding.

[studentbody]

[Cleo wrinkles her nose.]

When did you get all, like, cynical and gritty, Audrey?

[treefetish]

... [fam are you]

[studentbody]

[SHE'S VERY CONFUSED]

[in4apounding]

I thi-i-ink that one's Mister Wonka?

[Probably? This really is confusing.]

And thank you. If I were going to kill anyone it would be King Dice or Mister Swackhammer.

[treefetish]

Yeah, I'm the me one of me.

[codeofhero]

So I assume the one implicating Penny is Wonka, then?

[treefetish]

Yeah. I'd never accuse somebody of that! Especially Penny!

[codeofhero]

I cannot say I'm very surprised.

[standsforrevenge]

One of them is WHAT?

[Oh god how long has this been happening did he sleep with Wonka]

[studentbody]

...What? Seriously? But there's no way that's a mask, it's too lifelike.

[She gives Penny a cheery grin.]

And they'd totally deserve it!
