Take Responsibility.

The elevator doors slide open at the end of the allotted time for investigating, and the ride down is quick-paced and smooth; there's a lot more space in here than there was at the start of the game, that much is obvious. But then, perhaps that's to be expected with almost a third of your original number dead. The doors slide open when the courtroom is reached, the podium circle waiting as always in the middle of what still seems to be an endless dark void; Yato, Taichi and Megumi have joined the ranks of the dead, their podiums draped in black, greyscale portraits set upon them. Watching the proceedings. And as always, they aren't the only ones watching. The Kingmaker waits until everyone is settled at their podiums to begin speaking; it's still impossible to tell where his voice is coming from – other than, perhaps, 'everywhere.' "Protective has been taken from you. Looks like the guilty thought their secret was worth more than her life... Or maybe they just wanted out and decided to be the one to succeed at Rule Seven where everyone else has failed. Whether they succeed or not is up to you." Nineteen Survivors remain. How many are still alive at the end of the day is your decision.

Well, you never know! Maybe she was more like Caren. She did have strange hair and all.

[...logic!]

[isafraid]

...Are we accepting strangely colored hair as a clue that someone's hiding secrets then?

[Because that

that would almost make sense.]

[pokexplorer]

Define "strangely colored".

[Hi he's from Pokemon land, there is no strangely colored hair.]

[cherryblooded]

Seconded.

[Nonhumans do not know things like 'normal hair colors'.]

[captainobnoxious]

You two have weird hair colors to me. Well, you more than the scientist there, but his blue bobby thing still throws me off.

[isafraid]

...Wait, is that supposed to be hair?

[pokexplorer]

Of course it is?

[Colress is asking because why is this a question.

COLRESS SHOULD KNOW BETTER BY NOW.]

[captainobnoxious]

I thought it wasn't myself, but trust me, it is. So weird.

[isafraid]

I can't even imagine what it would take to make it that way!

[pokexplorer]

Perhaps that is the secret I am hiding.

[isafraid]

....Probably not the secret we need to hear right now.

[Don't think you're not getting away from it though, Colress.]

[cherryblooded]

Nice to know pink hair gives me a death sentence.

[captainobnoxious]

It's a curse, I guess.

[...]

But you don't have to worry anyway.

[cherryblooded]

I'll try not to.

[captainobnoxious]

[..........]

I mean, I pointed this out when I was drinking with kitten over there, but everyone who's died so far has had weird colored hair. One way or another they died.

[And then made a bet with herself that she won.]

[isafraid]

"Kitten"?

[captainobnoxious]

Black.

[isafraid]

....Oh.

[what can he say to that]

[penduli]

[ ...why does sigrun have to call him that in front of EVERYONE ELSE

he's just gonna

shrink behind his podium, he's not here. ]
