[ four doesn't try to find uriel right away because she has to compose herself after that result, but she does eventually look around for the archangel. ]
[ when Four finds Uriel, she's dressed differently, and is probably a bit scuffed up but idk the exension of it yet cause pixi and i are figuring out childe&uriel's fighting rn hehe oop.
but she glances over to her, and gives a light nod, frowning. ]
I had heard from Childe earlier. [ ... ] Even with the evidence there, I suppose something must have been overlooked...
[ sometimes, fighting is just a good way to release some emotions, otherwise she'd probably be cooped up in a room somewhere.... she isn't as fight-hungry as childe and scaramouche, but she tolerates it more than chandra. ]
They took what was in front of them as the truth, and by that point, everything else was left in the dark.
[ you basically got the gist of it, that's exactly how it happened :pensive: ]
There's nothing else to be done now. Though, it's unfortunate that Tuuri has to face a judgment she did not do.
[ valid. they did respect Tuuri's wishes, just like they respected Uriel's when she told them to vote her. the difference being uriel was guilty and tuuri was not(?) ]
I'm sure it's as shocking to them as it is to us.
[ because.. ]
To have decided on someone not guilty. Though had they leaned towards Zelgadis, the results would have been the same. [ so either way, it was doomed to be a lose/lose. ]
[ she thinks it's more shocking to those on the other side since they're the ones actively trying to solve the murder, and the ones on this side can only watch if they even stick around to do that.
she nods. ]
They were swayed one way, and I don't know if much could have changed in the last minute.
[ although four's investment in trials and their results has always been low. ]
They'll have to move forward with this as their decision. At least Harrowhark seems to choose to vote with her own will.
[ Uriel listens on, but once the topic comes to Harrowhawk she closes her eyes briefly. ]
...Harrowhark really is something. [ she doesn't say it negatively though. it is a bit admiring. she's a curious mortal, her train of thought her own and she stands by it. she can't help but think back to what she told Uriel at her own trial after learning she had been guilty of the crime. uriel isn't thinking this but i zetsu personally think harrowhark would be funny here. ]
Guess we'll have to see how much they work together for the next trial that comes along.
[ as optimistic as Uriel would like to be, she's prepared to think another trial will happen again despite the 'quota.' ]
[ new city, big city! it really is bustling though.. Uriel, sporting a new look, has already hid her wings so they aren't getting in the way of the crowd. but for extra measures, once they arrive, Uriel will gently take Four's hand into her own. ]
Might be easy to get lost here, so let's stick together, okay? [ looking around-- ] There's a lot to look at.. is there anything you're interested in checking out first?
[ very new! very big city! it's too much for this medieval girl. four stills for half a second, surprised when uriel takes her hand, but almost unconsciously, she curls her fingers around uriel's. ]
This is much... more than I'm used to. It's beyond my time period. I don't know where to start, but... at least it looks of higher quality than the previous islands. We should try for better clothes.
[ she's been to cities before but nothing like this. ]
[ soft... she gently squeezes that hand for reassurance. ]
Compared to the past shops for clothes, this should hopefully have better results. [ luckily, there's a clothing shop pretty close to the start of the city. but finally... better clothes... party clothes... ]
If it gets too overwhelming, let me know, okay? We can find somewhere quieter.
[ as long as she's happy... which is what Uriel hopes for, which is why she encourages this more. ]
Of course! I'm glad we found something for you. We can probably look at some matching accessories to go with it? There's a lot to work with here! Something in your hair would look really cute.

WEEKEND 0, SUNDAY.
..Do people find this entertaining?
[ ok maybe not. ]
no subject
I can't help but feel there is a better use of time.
no subject
[ boring. ] Why fight with flowers when you can just use a sword? I guess there are cooking competitions but... I'd rather just fight physically.
no subject
It seems a little unreal.
no subject
[ the TV glitches and suddenly it's playing an episode of big bang theory. oh well. so much for the gardening battle. ]
Oh.. guess we'll never know how that fight ended.
no subject
she's just confused. ]
It could switch back? I don't know how this... thing works.
[ she squints. ]
This seems just as unreal.
week 5, saturday
Uriel, have you heard yet?
no subject

no subject
It did look like they stopped looking more in depth at some evidence once Tuuri's burns turned up. Or maybe even before then.
[ me, coming in late and still trying to read up on trial ]

she nods. ]
She was involved somehow, but the question is how she was pulled in, if she wasn't guilty.
[ the memory issues.... ]
This is the first time they've voted this way on the other side.

Until the party happens, I expect it to continue. They were at twenty at the beginning of the week, so it could have stopped there.
[ ... ]
But if too few tried to reach out to Satan, they likely don't know that he's not that selective and would have invited all twenty left.
[ there's some censure to her tone. ]
WEEK 6, MONDAY.

[ she's a big girl who can handle herself. sometimes.
time to look at cuter clothes. let's do it!!! ]
I can adapt.
no subject
[ she believes in four... but yes, clothes time.
she looks around at first... ] Is there a particular style you prefer, Four?
no subject
I don't want anything too flashy or flamboyant. I think simple but refined is best.
no subject
Maybe this then?
no subject
... That's pretty. You think it would suit me?
no subject
[ she gingerly hands them over, gesturing to the dressing room closeby. ] Why not give it a try and see?
no subject
How does it look?
no subject
It looks lovely on you! You're already beautiful but it just... [ taps her chin. ] It feels like you. Yes! That's what it is!
no subject
... If you think it suits me, I'll purchase it. Thank you, Uriel.
no subject

that makes her hesitate a little. ]
Should I change up how I do my hair?
