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.]

...This week I remembered losing a Revue.
I'm not yet out of the running for Top Star, but it's the first time I can remember losing in all my time participating in the Auditions. But I also lost to someone who had never been in any of my cycles before. She literally just... had never been there until this time.
Clau-chan was from a time beyond when my cycle would end and restart again. I thought at first that maybe she was just from another timeline, maybe one that continued after I went back in time. But now I'm starting to think I might have actually lost finally.
...I wouldn't take the risk now if I can't guarantee my title as Top Star. I know it might not mean much, but I can promise you that.
[ so just laying it all out ]
