week 1 trial

W1: TRIAL

34 REMAIN.

In the morning at 11:30am sharp, you hear the intercom speakers blare loudly across the entire airport, perfectly audible no matter where you are.

All passengers, please report to Terminal 0 Gate Area effective immediately. All passengers, please report to Terminal 0 Gate Area effective immediately...

...But that's so far...! Groan. Still—even if you try your best to resist, you'll find your body moving against your will and taking you all the way over there anyway. After what feels like forever of walking, you'll arrive to the gate and see that a few things are different. Most of you probably had a feeling this is what you should expect, right?

The gate has been refurnished a little bit for the proceedings today. The metal gates will not let anyone out of the Gate Area without permission, but at least there's some snacks set out, and Allstars Coffee is still open in case you need a coffee break. Your Hosts await you near the front behind the counters, carrying various, but all expectant attitudes. After all, we knew this was coming.

► OOC Notes

Welcome to trial! Over the course of the next nine hours, characters will need to discuss the circumstances, investigate relevant locations, and put together theories about the truth behind this week's murders!

Trial will last from 9am PST/12pm EST until 6pm PST/9pm PST. There will be an hour-long break starting 1pm PST/4pm EST; while players are free to continue tagging during this time, it is intended to allow players to take a minute to eat, rest, what have you.

Lastly, voting is mandatory. Please be absolutely sure to get your IC vote in before the end of trial, or there are severe IC consequences!

DM the mods if you intend to use a curse during trial. Curse duration may be altered or subject entirely to mod approval depending on how many curses are in play. Curse duration must end before break.

Good luck!

[dupelicate]

Well--I... I mean, you shouldn't be fine with it!

[he splays his hands out in front of him, waving them around, like it's going to block anything.

a blush is rapidly overtaking his features.]

G-Go find the other guy!

[mgtropes]

[the glass looks similar but you can't tell if it's identical or not, its just broken glass. there's no obvious smell.

he will not see anything else in the windmill. he can hand off the extinguisher to tama so she can go put out the other fire. as he does, though, he may notice that some of the red in the grass near the trampled indents, a little away from the windmill, is not blood.

tama goes and extinguishes the other fire! there is now a burnt and crispy golf green and also more broken glass in that area.]

[sootprints]

[ waving for jacopo to come back if he started leaving after the last question. or astolfo if she can catch them. ]

Have you seen either of these items?

[sixam]

[ feet :nyeh:

does the shape look like maybe one of vi's gauntlets punched the shelf and pushed everything back? really concerned the other gauntlet's not showing up, actually, even if he's double-checking the counter and any nearby cabinets, etc. from where we are, is there access to the carry-out window and outside?

anyway he's just picking up a broken glass piece. is this specifically dishware, or does it look like another type of glass? ]

What do you mean it's heavier than usual? [ okay, now he will come over and set the glass piece down to try and lift the glove. what the fuck is wrong with you, glove. ]

[teenrebellion]

The ones who did this. Of which I'm not one.

[rosebleed]

Most certainly, thank you.

[They will proceed.

Rosamund will remove her dress and remain in her modest underthings. I've said it before but she does not have briars or scars this game so skin is smooth. No injuries, and no tattoos.]

[refractures]

[ you can see his black gloves and that's it ]

[frotag]

I don't have a problem with it, but other people might...

[honourous]

[ shuffles behind the screen with her. ]

Would you be alright with me checking your hair, Maya? [ since we're both in the lotta hair club. but first: ] The tattoo is from Claire's, yes?

[nostradamus]

[TCH.]

It took them days to give us proper lodgings, but they send that paperwork off to HQ that fast, huh...

[foreverphantom]

[ owo? non-blood red? leans in closer to get a look. is it still liquid like ketchup? or some solid item hiding in the grass...? ]

[ballies]

Shy~

[ but it's okay, she's thinking of people's eyeballs. ]

[riderculous]

Grazie!

[ Checks and then ruffles his hair hehe ]

[rosebleed]

[comes over here so hulkie doesn't have to do everything.]

Manwol, may I see you without your shirt please?

[bulls]

[ sure, he'll be here from the waist up behind a screen - fit check. he'll fold up his sweater to the side and the undershirt that goes with it and will allow someone to look him over.

he has an old brand in his left wrist and a bunch of old scars along his torso, but that's it, no cutesy tattoos that seem clairse-y from here. the sin tattoo of the week is 13,523 spread across both his palms right to left. ]

[sixam]

[ allows this... ]

... [ there's a sigh though. ] I'm not going to tell either of you to do this, but considering the circumstances...

[ who the victims are. but it's obvious he's uneasy about it, too. ]

Then again. [ he's just looking at kaworu for a moment. ] Give me five minutes and we'll go.

[obdure]

[ Bats the hand away. Stop that. ]

[halians]

[ hihi! is there anything of note on rin's upper half that's immediately visible since he stripped like a good boy? shiny bits, injuries, marks, hickies from haru (hopeful), bruises, scratches, etc? tattoos? What's his weekly failure/sin tattoo?

is he wearing shorts or pants, also? ]

[mgtropes]

[none of them match the claw marks on vi because those are human-hand-sized and also anything with proper claws/talons would be too sharp... these aren't claw marks in the sense that something broke skin or drew blood...]

[riderculous]

[ Coming over and then nodding ]

You don't need to worry about either of these.

[ballies]

[ more glass!!

someone really wanted this glass to remain unfound. does it look like it's melted a little or not...?
and while she's over here, are there more footprints and blood splatters to indicate an ongoing chase? ]

[frotag]

Tacchan, trust me, you'd know when I was shy.

[ he's self-aware... ]

[nostradamus]

[yeah, it's a little transparent like in the image. but there's nothing that super stands out aside from her arms and a weekly effect tattoo on her side that reads BEING FORGOTTEN.]

[mgtropes]

[ Rosamund tries to swipe jewelery... and can't! Her hand goes right through them. Oops. Looks like these are simulated too.

The notebooks are probably full of more templars going aughh ahhhhh earghhhhhh and full of MLM fanfiction with women who pass the Bechdel Test because Anders is woke as hell. No idk they're there, but the templar part minimum is probably true?

The blood trail obviously leads from the door to the blool, with some amount of drag-like marks. It's right next to the edge of the bed. ]

[drymonster]

[ l...ooks...?? ]
