fourth trial
[When the investigation finishes, the lights begin to flicker on and off as that low, gentle rumble echoes through the opera house. Again for those investigating the grounds the outdoor lights illuminating the still night flicker to get their attention.
Your intermission is ending. Please return to your trial room.
The court room looks just as it did before: the grand chandelier glittering above your heads, the dusty red velvet seats. In the orchestra pit your circle of wooden podiums are waiting. Angus, Riley and Shilo's podiums are draped in black crepe with their greyscale funerary portraits, just like your friends before them. The ghost light glows softly behind the podiums.
The curtain is closed, waiting to open when a decision has been reached and the execution can commence.
When everyone is in their places, the Phantom's voice echoes loud and clear through the theatre from his place in box 5. He still sounds distracted, just as he was for his other public appearance this week, like there are other things weighing on his mind.]
You must now determine who was responsible for the death of Shilo Wallace. Submit your vote on the podiums when you are certain of your choice.
[Gather your evidence and let's begin.]

I don't know, with all the hallucinations and stuff, I don't think the possibility of an accident is necessarily out of the question... maybe the killer panicked and is scared to die...
[ ... ]
...Or maybe I'm just hoping for too much.

[He lets out a breath]
Either way, they're betting the rest of our lives.
no subject
I just don't want to assume the worst automatically. Not when all of us weren't even in the best frame of mind.
...Again though, maybe I'm just being optimistic.
no subject
...I don't blame anyone for being afraid to die, but I don't want to, either.
no subject
Because they're, they're prepared to kill all of us.

[He still seems a little quiet, maybe distracted.]
Motivations have nothing to do with whether or not a trial occurs. Red did kill Richard.

Normally you're consistent. All, here I am, big scary mysterious above-it-all Mr. Mask, but... If there's something up, we should know, if it concerns us.
