{Look at all the evidence, I beg of you. It must be........oh gods. I should have known. Only one person could have snuck up on Cecil. I think I know who the killer is}

Sakura winced as Crispin's death was pronounced, and her face dropped, but she was no longer surprised. When her face rose again, it was filled with determined fire. "Citizens of Smoothieville!" she declared, facing them all. "The mayor is right. We have to judge by actions to judge correctly. I have thought long and hard over the evidence. We must do this- for the sakes of Crispin, Shyama, and all of those lost. On the first night, there was a bang, meaning the killer is probably large. On the second night, it took place on the roof, meaning the killer is agile or can fly. It probably also means the killer was stealthy, as rooves (OOC: is that even a word?) are most open places. One of us has quietly avoided drawing attention to themself. They have voted with the majority. They have acted afraid. They haven't been voted for. They have a profession allowing them to travel freely around town without suspicion. Their very name denotes stealth..." Here Sakura trailed off, voice wobbly as she looked at the mapmaker. "Sneaky. My vote is you. I have tried to conclude with the evidence, but it just isn't very solid. But it does seem to point to you. Forgive me if I am wrong, but I just want this to end." She met his gaze, eyes pained, then looked down, heart churning with painful emotions. I'm sorry.

Cuddles
Cuddles buried his tiny face in his paws. He was scared, and he hadn't slept recently. He would hide in his cage and nervously run on his wheel. "I'm really sorry, but Sakura makes an excellent point. All of us are wrong at many points in our lives, and I'm sorry if this one if them. But, Sneaky..." He whispered frightfully. "I'm really sorry.... but, I cast my vote for Sneaky." Cuddles said as he hung his head in shame.

Shock spread across Esra's maw in a flash. "W-What?" How could Crispin be dead? She had been sure he was the killer… Esra shook her head to clear it, and tried to hold back her tears. "I'm sorry Sneaky… So, so sorry… I just don't know what to do anymore!" Esra was ecstatic, and she felt a panic attack coming on.[/center]

(Whoa! That was unexpected! Note to self, don't fall asleep. Ever.)


Sneaky's eyes widened considerably. "Wh-what?!?" He exclaimed. "N-no! It's not me! It can't be me!" Tears gathered in Sneaky's eyes. What had he done to warrant this? "I-I don't... I..." His tears spilled freely down his face. He grit his teeth, panic and betrayal slowly turning to anger. "That's it! First of all, you have no solid evidence! I have not always voted with the majority- if you go back and look, that is incorrect. And I'm a huge klutz! How am I supposed to get on a roof? There are far more agile creatures here! And what, you're being all judgmental 'cause my parents are bad at naming? " He growled, though he continued to cry. He paced back and forth before pausing, his voice becoming much louder.

"But you know what? I've realized something. We're all blindly following Sakura's votes, her suggestions, and look at where that has got us! Half dead, that's what. Seven of us are dead, and most of us have voted as Sakura has the whole way through. It's a set up!" Sneaky announced loudly. "I place my vote on Sakura being the killer. Going by your weak evidence, she's voted exactly the same as I have, she's large, and she could've gotten on to the roof just as easily as I could have, with how connected she is to plants I'm sure she could have found a way. " Sneaky concluded.

[flightoftheowl]

Sakura looked up again at Sneaky, face still pained. "Sneaky, no one is blindly following me. I put forth logical conclusions that have been wrong, for the killer is clever and leaves almost no evidence. I try my best with what I have. And do you think the plants would have helped me forcibly remove the life of another? Most certainly not. Sneaky... I... I'm sorry, I've spoken that I am sorry before. We have to vote someone out every round. But I am no killer. I have mislead all of you a few times, and I blame myself, but once again, I tried to conclude logically. You're right. I could have done it. If you turn the voters on me, I will go calmly and unprotestingly, but it will just be another two innocent lives- if you count my tree as a separate life, which it truly isn't- gone. For I swear to Yggdrasil, the mother tree, that it is not me. That is all I can say. Do what you will." She sighed sadly, wishing her tree hadn't been planted in this town- but then again, she wouldn't have made all the friends she did, though most of them were gone now.

[Blaze Crimson]

Sneaky narrowed his eyes. "I'm not changing my vote. You sprung the blame on me, so I'll spring it on you. Your so-called 'logical conclusions' were based on exterior appearances and job descriptions. I could be wrong, but I'm just sick and tired of feeling like you're the one in charge. If you were truly sorry, you never would have voted. If you haven't realized, that's not a requirement. We don't HAVE to vote. We do it because we believe we're right. And I've had my suspicions for a while that the killer is you. My vote is final. Now if you'll excuse me, I'd at least like to finish my maps before you kill me and pretend to be sorry for it. Call me when I need to have my existence ended." Picking up his parchment and pencil, He wandered off toward the graveyard to finish his mapping in the area.

Votes are added! Still about 13 hours left to make your case, guys, so feel free to continue the discussion if you want to.

I really love watching this. xD One of my favourite books is Lord of the Flies, and the same basic mentality is in that. People are isolated, and people turn on eachother. From a psychological point of view, it's fascinating, and I love knowing who the killer is and seeing everyone else try to find a logical reason behind their suspicions, whether they're right or wrong.
But enough nerdiness from me. >w> Only 3 more (supposedly active) players left! This could be the first vote we've had aside from the last round where everybody votes before the time limit. :0

When Riley had first heard of Crispin's death, she wasn't shocked like past time, instead she was quite upset about it. 'Ugh, why can't we just find the killer?! Half of us are gone and we are still try to find the killer!' Riley thought angrily. So many innocent lives gone, and she had sent two of them to their grave. At this point it was hard to keep her head and emotions straight but she had to... At least until they found the killer. Like all the other times, Riley shook her head to, try, to clear her mind. She listened to the others silently. They made good points and reasons for placing their vote on who they thought had committed the crime. 'On the night of the first murder... There was a loud bang, it could have been someone or something.' Riley thought thinking back on the first murder. 'On the night of the second murder, the killer had gotten up on the roof silently.' Riley thought trying to piece things together. Those were the nights that really had to be thought about. The killer had to be sneaky and quiet, but they may have been clumsy, and Sneaky had just admitted to being so. Maybe if they were clumsy they could have knocked something over in Poopkee's lab. Riley's heart was already heavy with grief and guilt from sending two innocent pets to their death. She placed her vote in a shaky voice. "I will place my vote for Sneaky... And even though Sakura may have been wrong before, I believe this time she is right... I side with her most of time because she tries to piece things together, and make a logical conclusion. I feel its better to vote with a logic on my side than one based off of feeling towards one another or looks...I'm sorry..." A few tears made their way down Riley's face. She could only hope that she had voted for the right person, and the killings would stop.

Buster was shaken. He was scared, he was confused. The past few days have been awful, a murder at every turn a death at the hands of others. Actually, htese psat few days buster has been holing up in is house, tears stinging his eyes at the situation. yet, it still goes on. Too many deaths, but the only way out of this mess was to use his brain. Being too emotional would just cloud his head. He took a deep breath and scanned the hall before speaking. He screwed up his face and spoke loudly to the crowd.

He sighed quitly. " There isn't any evidence anywhere to suspect anyone. True, Sneaky has been voting with the majority and not drawing attention to herself, but isn't that what many are doing? Out of fear, out of panic?" Buster stopped for a second before continuing, " But Sakura has a point. From what we know the killer has to be big, because the bump of the first night, yet agile and able to go on a roof. This seems to be the ideal strategy of the killer, since it happened a few times. Yet, obviusly, the killer messed up the first night. Became clumsy and messed up, then switched to killing on the roof where their isn't anything to run into. We also know that Sneaky is adept with a bow and arrow, a weapon. I'm sorry Sneaky, but i have to place my bet with you. It's all the evidence we have."
