Avatar Turnabout Trial

Frank talks to his fellow jurors, loud enough for most to hear, saying, What's going on again?

Nyarlathotep: She’s being prosecuted for murder. Can you believe it? All this trouble just because she killed one guy. Azathoth’s court is so much more interesting.

Hey, I present the case around here. Now, Miss Holly, you are charged with the brutal murder of a local teenager named Kris. He was found dead in a meat freezer with chunks of his body missing. The murder weapon was determined to be a mincer found in a dumpster, as the mysterious meat chunks found in there were confirmed to belong to Kris. Now, will the prosecutor please plead their case?

I suppose, if I must. Do we actually have any evidence that it was her? I haven’t been shown any, and, to be honest, there are some far more murderous people in here than her.

Holly: You're getting several facts wrong. I don't own a butchery, I don't own a meat grinder. I did not kill Kris. I have children and I don't want to see them heartbroken with this case.

I can’t blindly trust you on the “I didn’t kill him” bit, but that’s interesting. Either you borrowed someone else’s grinder or someone else did it. May I see the property records for the butchery and the grinder?

Takumi summons the first witness.

"Summon the first witness," Takumi orders.

Uh... “Hella Jeff”, come forward?

Can you explain what exactly happened?

so i looked in window (hehehehe they didnt even knowi loked through the window) and saw lots of blood evrywere

Are your eyes functioning properly, sir?

im prety sure my eyes are cool and good

Then describe the crime in more detail. Did you see anyone shove him into the grinder?

no din not see the GRIDING but i hear grinding sound and i was like "ow owie oof my ears"

No further questions, your honor. This guy is an idiot. Anyone else want to question him or should I call the next person?

Sorry I'm here instead of the normal prosecutor. His car got stuck in a ditch. Anyways, I would like to ask you a question, Hella Jeff. What made you assume the grinding noise didn't just come from regular meat?

well the grinding noise came just before i saw the BLOOD EVRYWERRE

Meanwhile, as the court proceeds, Starlight Glimmer sits on the juror seat. She whispers to herself, "What in Celestia's name is even going on? I didn't remember signing up for this. Maybe it's best if I keep my muzzle shut for now and try to make sense of things."

Nyarlathotep: We’re at a trial! Kind of fun, but this stuff is useless on a cosmic scale. You should see Azathoth’s court some time. You can’t get prosecuted in there unless you destroyed a planet and/or are capable of even comprehending the Nuclear Chaos! That happens fairly often, actually. We had some guy named Rlim Shaikorth in there last week. He was suing some guy for breaking his iceberg.

”We should probably call a new witness.”

The first jury in is... There is no progress in here at all, we still have incompetent brainless idiots trying to figure this out, and my time gets wasted and wasted, while we haven't sowed the seeds of the questions yet! I hope the next witnesses actually bring some new information to the table!

Sure, why not. Now... who’s next? Ah, yes. “Tenchou”, please come forward.
