Take Responsibility.

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.

[Ah...

So that's why.]

So somebody else had your phone, and you managed to get it back from them, presumably. Since its useless in here anyway, you disassembled it and used those components to build a time bomb with help from the radio.

[Is he getting any closer?]

[uro_cyon]

You're making assumptions about what does and doesn't work. [ Because in the wake of a magical notebook that kills people, that seems faulty. But if he asked the Kingmaker, that's still not really working with him is it. (at least not in the long term).]

There's no part of the device that tracks time.

[amygdalae]

It doesn't necessarily need to track time in that manner. The dials on the radio could be easily be modified as a stand in.

[And with Aiden's skills, presumably, it could work.]

[uro_cyon]

It's not a bad idea, but no. I like to have more control than that.

[isafraid]

...Sounds like you're saying that you could control the bomb. Plain as that.

[Which doesn't make.... sense. Does it?]

[uro_cyon]

You can. [ If only he could explain the wonders of chemistry and technology, but unfortunately he's not going to have the time to.]

[amygdalae]

[Control...

A word Bruce knows very well.]

You used the transmitter from your phone onto the bomb and with that frequency, used the Kingmaker's device to set it off.
