GAME 3 - Day 1 Voting Results

[protoshepherd]

Why vote for Proto? Proto did nothing wrong. . .

[ and with that, the badger heads back inside one of the mirrors. screw you guys for voting for him. it seems you've hurt his feelings. (you can still talk to him through the mirrors, though! just think!) ]

No one is guilty tonight.

(— Your character now has knowledge of who everyone else voted for.

— The trial ends early in the afternoon, so there's still time before nighttime to play around. Feel free to tag around in this post or the succeeding one!)

H-hey, don't be so down on yourself... I think we all want answers from that badger at a time like this.

[deverybeste]

But... I voted for him. If he didn't do anything wrong, then... I accused the wrong person. [If the badger guy even counts as a person, that is.]

[bewrightback]

It's very possible that we both voted for the wrong person. So that may be a mistake we share.

[deverybeste]

Hah... You really think so? [He sniffs again, still holding onto his baton with both hands. If he keeps this up, it might just snap in half.] ... You voted for that Interpol guy, right?

[bewrightback]

That's right... only for a lack of other suspects. I'm not convinced about his guilt, though. And I didn't expect him to vote for you.

[deverybeste]

Me neither! I don't even know w-why... All I did was ask if he had the autopsy report for Dr. Black, and he said that... that if he did, I'd be arrested already. Ungh... I don't get it... Is it just because I'm a prosecutor?

[bewrightback]

I don't know... There are other prosecutors he could havr pinned this on. Why you in particular?

[deverybeste]

Maybe I made him mad when I said I'd prove him wrong... [Does that make sense? He doesn't even know anymore. It's been over a day since he even talked to Lang, so the memories of the conversation are all kinds of fuzzy. Let's see, the guy said he's The Best in Interpol and he thinks all prosecutors are corrupt, so...]

... Or maybe... Maybe it's because of my Pops...!

[bewrightback]

Your... Pops?

[deverybeste]

Pops is- was the chairman of the P.I.C. ...Prosecutorial Investigation Committee. Before that, he was the Chief Prosecutor for a really long time, so I guess you could say he's kind of a big deal. Turns out he... He did a lot of bad s-stuff. [Lang may not be right about all prosecutors, but Blaise Debeste probably does stand for everything he hates about them.]

[bewrightback]

[Wait a moment... that Debeste?! He's the father of this kid?

...I feel bad for him.]

I see. Now that makes sense. If that's so... then Agent Lang's suspicions may be grounded entirely in personal bias after all.

[deverybeste]

[It really makes sense? ...Great. Pops is still messing up his life, then.]

Ungh...! That's... That's so unfair! I know my Pops is t-totally rotten, but I decided to be different from him! ...I don't wanna be anything like him anymore! That Interpol guy isn't even giving me a chance...!

[bewrightback]

I agree. That does sound like unfair treatment, especially if you're trying to be your own man. Unfortunately... some people can't see past titles and last names.

At the very least, I'll try to believe in you... Prosecutor Debeste.

1/2

[deverybeste]

Hah... R-really? You will?

2/2

[deverybeste]

I-I mean.. Of course you will! Yeah! Because anyone with half a brain can see that I'm just trying to do my very best, right?

[bewrightback]

Well... To be honest, it wasn't extremely obvious until I got to know you better. But now I can see that you are definitely just trying your best.

[deverybeste]

[He's going to take that as a compliment. Yup.]

...Thanks, Mr. Left. [He means Right- I mean Wright.] I really needed to hear that.

[bewrightback]

...That's Wright.

[deverybeste]

It sure is! [wait what.]

[bewrightback]

[He has an odd way of correcting himself.]

Just as long as you know!

[deverybeste]

Yeah! I- ... Wait, know what?

[bewrightback]

That my name is Wright...

[deverybeste]

[His name is right? ...Oh!]

Oh! It was Wright, not Left! Right, right!

[bewrightback]

Right...
