Take Responsibility.

[kingmakereffect]

And once the allotted time for investigating comes to a close, those elevator doors slide open at the end of the first-floor corridor, offering another of those fast, smooth rides down to that black void of a courtroom Twelve out of the original twenty-seven are dead; there are four less of you present for this trial than there were last week. That's incredibly obvious as soon as the doors slide open and the podium circle comes into view where it's encircling that dark pit in the center of the room; Norman, the King, Tarrlok, and Lynne have joined the deceased, photographs in greyscale watching the proceedings from their podiums draped in black. Of course and as always, the Kingmaker is watching too; he waits until everyone is settled at their podiums to begin speaking, though it's still impossible to tell exactly where his voice is coming from. "Assured and Perceiving have been taken from you. You guys are really getting excited, aren't you? Two people dead in one night... Whether the guilty party succeeds or not, though, is up to the rest of you." Fifteen Survivors remain. However many will be down by the end of the day is up to you.

I think checking the arms would be good, too. Anyone can wash their hands.

[goodforsomething]

Sounds good to me.

[Stan removes his suit jacket and rolls up his sleeves. No glitter.]

I stay outta that stuff, I just barely got all the glitter from home offa me.

[prismbloom]

[ She rolls up the sleeves of her suit. No glitter. ]

[uro_cyon]

[Despite his many layers, Aiden's glitter free, even when he rolls up his sleeves.]

[penduli]

[ ...oh, are we doing a glitter check now.

Well, Black's clear, no glitter here; he's not wearing his sweater today, just his stupid button-down, so checking him out is easy.

He worked with tiny rhinestones for his mask, okay, not glitter. ]

[amygdalae]

[Bruce pushes up the sleeves of his jumpsuit the best that he can and raises both of his palms. There is some glitter on them (specifically on his palms, and a bit at his side), but--]

I was handling Mister Tarrlok's body earlier. Mister Colress and Detective Mouri can confirm.

[Which explains why he has glitter on his hands and his side where he had been trying to brush it off from him. It's not anywhere else on his body, though.]

[pokexplorer]

[Colress nods.]

That is correct. Mr. Banner and I discussed the glitter ourselves.

[notjustawriter]

[ No glitter here.]

[happysweets]

[ She's washed up since the party, so it's not quite enough to transfer.

But she's certainly got trace amounts of glitter on her hands, for sure. ]

[garudynamic]

[Clear- in fact he's wearing short sleeves so he couldn't hide if he wanted to]

[isafraid]

Well, seems as good a plan as any.

[Speedwagon shrugs off his coat again, and rolls up his sleeves.

There is no glitter.]

[ratingspoint]

[Mettaton's kind of constantly got glitter on his hands by merit of having gloves on that he can't take off too easily, but he's actually got very little on him, and most of it is on the back of his right hand - in other words, not nearly enough to cause that much transfer, and it's in a weird location besides.

So unless he was smearing his non-dominant hand all over Tarrlok's everything for no discernible reason, he's actually good.]

[captainobnoxious]

[Sigrun's already jacketless today, so she'll tug up her sleeves to show off the lack of glitter on her too. It would've all been on her jacket anyway if anywhere.]

I might've been around the biggest fans of glitter last night [and dancing with one] but I'm not part of that club myself. Should've caught me earlier this week.

[She might've rubbed her hands raw.]

[pokexplorer]

[Colress' gloves are slightly sparkly of glitter from where he came into contact with a small amount of it during his investigation. It's hard to get it all off once it's on, okay?

The rest of his clothing is glitter-free.]

[cherryblooded]

[Suit jacket off, shirt off - he's glitter-free.]

There was some on my mask, but I doubt that'd be enough to transfer over.
