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!

[ballies]

I'm not a ghost!!

[mgtropes]

[no particular damage to the sides or back! it's hard to tell if her eyes are open or closed in all the damage but they probably look more open. it's safe to assume her nose is broken, yeah.]

[frotag]

[ waves his hand nonchalantly ]

Unless someone else decides to punch me in the face today, I'll be fine. Don't worry about me!

[rosebleed]

[regrettably yes]

[bxkautx]

[ gimme whoever! ]

Morning. Can you guys fix a broken phone screen?

[foreverphantom]

[ pops in ]

They're not wrong.

[ballies]

[ don't bring the tone down. ]

There's that. With that many people in one place, the statistics weren't great.

[toxicate]

[ pockets it now. ]

Giving the answer outright would ruin whatever "game" this is supposed to be, obviously. Do you know when you're getting your voice back?

[teenrebellion]

No, no, do your thing. We'll find ways to bribe you if we have to. We just like having you around that much.

[halians]

[ pulls a bag of treats out of his pocket and gives them a rattle ]

[rosebleed]

[we really had to do it to em]

Yeah. No one's fate has to be sealed by something like that.

But even so...I wonder if we'll be able to figure out if they were possessed in the first place. It was a lot more subtle last week, until after the votes were tallied.

[riderculous]

We didn't have that in Nueva Bork.

[ curfew or the barriers ]

It was! There's a light show and Hippo likes being there.

[teenrebellion]

Not really...? Unless you count the bad memories, but otherwise it was just presents.

[ballies]

[ looks at him like don't you start ]

[sixam]

Oh. His growth's actually paused for a while.

[lifeless]

Or maybe Anders and his murderer were doing their best not to hurt any of you.

[there should be more curfew damage honestly]

[rosebleed]

By then it'll probably be too late. I'm afraid you'll just have to make friends.

[honourous]

[ well as long as they're IN THERE. probably a good thing she did this instead of strohl, actually. she'll try to check and see if there's anything in her eyes as best she can, before moving to nose and mouth. anything in either of them besides blood and broken teeth, i assume? cheese? debris?

also did the blunt force damage extend down to her chin/jaw as well? ]

[damp]

[ honestly yeah just forces this scenario onto the curfew ]

I wouldn't say "trapped". [ HE DOESN'T WANT TO BE RUDE ] But there wasn't a lot of privacy.

[riderculous]

It was probably a lot of fun though, right?

[lifeless]

[i mean she's right]

Just like in real life...

[bulls]

[ nods firmly also rin your anxiety... hovers a little protectively at that look. yeah yeah yeah let's go. ]

[teenrebellion]

...It's a little more than that. It's still someone's life.

[rosebleed]

[Gives a small and sheepish smile in return.]

[halians]

[ every day he gets assigned straighter and we fly farther from god's light ]
