Take Responsibility.

[kingmakereffect]

The allotted time for investigating comes to an end, and those elevator doors slide open at the end of the first-floor corridor; it's a bit of a walk down from the fifth floor, but at least the ride down is swift and smooth. To say nothing of spacious. Your numbers are running low. The podium circle, as always, stands out against the black-walled courtroom where it's encircling that pit in the center; Mettaton and Shirazu have joined the ranks of the deceased, photographs in greyscale watching the proceedings from their podiums draped in black. The Kingmaker, too, is watching all of you; as always, it isn't until everyone has settled at their podium that he speaks, his voice sounding out through the room for all to hear. "Sacrificial has been taken from you. Maybe this time the guilty party is going to actually succeed at Rule Seven - but of course, whether they manage it is still up to the rest of you." Eleven Survivors remain. How many are still standing by the end of the day is up to you.

[Yup. Just another Tuesday

of something trying to kill him.]

Well it would... be certainly a difficult thing to adjust to, given how babies usually are. [all grabby and bitey, he's heard.] If his dad's got it then you've got some help!

[...] Biting yourself on accident would be a nightmare.

[penduli]

I asked him how biting his tongue went. The answer was exactly what you'd expect.

[ ...a lot of blood and pain. ]

[captainobnoxious]

[.........]

At least we know he never would've had a lover.

[She was told you don't let people with sharp teeth have oral sex with you, lately.]

[cherryblooded]

[It's true.]

[penduli]

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

He could've still, he'd just have to be very... careful. And probably avoid eating anyone out.


[ hghhfhh ]

[sleepingkogoro]

[guys it is not the time for this god damn it]

[goodforsomething]

It's called creativity!

[Thanks Stan? Oh my god]

[captainobnoxious]

[....]

Like how?

[isafraid]

Do we really need to know?

[guys someone is dead]

[captainobnoxious]

I'm kind of curious, yeah. It's not like Mettaton and I were all that compatible for stuff like that.

[So.]

[penduli]

Actually, he mentioned that you might've been, considering who his creator was.


[ sorry sigrun ]

[garudynamic]

[Softly screaming from his podium from just.... everything this trial has become]

[sleepingkogoro]

Mettaton-kun was well versed about these matters, apparently.

[That's the conclusion he got from the conversation he had in the bar with him a couple weeks ago]

[captainobnoxious]

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA]

Did he-- Did he seem particularly into the idea of that kind of stuff? Just, you know. Curious.

[sleepingkogoro]

I-I don't think so.

Maybe this is not t-the best time for this topic.

[Because it's awkward as hell and Cherryblod looks ready to snap the neck of the next person who talks about this]

[isafraid]

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA]

C-can't ya just ask that after the trial?

[captainobnoxious]

[what]

I didn't think to ask because I figured there wouldn't be any chance! [Regret.] And because he wouldn't be interested, maybe, but-- I mean, this isn't the time, I guess, I'll drink my regrets later.

[cherryblooded]

...People are dead, can we get back on the main topic?

[penduli]

[ AAAAAAAAA ]

S-Sorry, Mr. Cherryblod.

[cherryblooded]

Thank you.

[He probably would not do anything to Black anyway.]

[isafraid]

Seems we're all too curious for our own good.



[but mostly Sigrun]

[cherryblooded]

Seems that way, doesn't it.

[captainobnoxious]

[SHE IS INSANELY CURIOUS]

[captainobnoxious]

[yikes]

Yessir.

[cherryblooded]

Later, dear. Not at a murder trial. And not while I'm around.
