—THE SECOND TRIAL—

Once again, at 9 AM sharp, a familiar bell tolls to alert the hour. You've become familiar with the flow of things, haven't you? You know what tod o — find your answers before the final ring chimes. Even if you try to avoid it, eventually your legs will bring you towards where you know you'll have to be. The courtroom doors swing open, welcoming.

Come by again, and it looks just like last week. Take your seat on any one you wish, and peruse the table lined with (non-alcoholic) refreshments and snacks. The same sign, promising a lunch break. And of course, your observers, sitting by the jury's seat shuffling about a stack of papers. Ask your questions and they will answer.

The judge's seat shows the same message as it has always done: "GRANT WE THINE JUDGMENT — ABSOLVE THEE THINE GUILT," and the same, strange, incorporeal form stays seated at the high seat, hand resting unto a gavel's handle.

"Today we will be investigating the cases of: Akeha, Valvatorez, and Vicious. Court is now in session."

The same blue, translucent field prevents you from leaving freely once you're in. You know the drill, don't you?

TRIAL RUNDOWN

1. Were you tempted to take more drastic measures when faced with the threat that you may not receive your promised compensation? Why, or why not?
No, because I fight crimes, I don't commit them! And also I worried that everything might have been my fault because what I'd wanted was more experience as a prosecutor in a courtroom, and I thought maybe I was already getting my reward but in a really bad way, so I didn't even want it anymore.
2. If you did take drastic measures, such as murder, why?
N/A
3. For those who lost out due to the actions of others, how do you feel currently?
I'm upset that all of this happened for no good reason and I'm mad that everyone lied about killing people I liked, but I'm really happy that everyone is back. Mostly.
4. If you have criticism or suggestions regarding the study, please inform us (optional).
You should have let me file those criminal charges when I asked so we could have locked that jerk up and hardly any of this would have happened! You also should have listened to my explanation of the legal system instead of getting distracted by memes. You're not very good at this. 3/10
