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!

[honourous]

... could the shotgun have been responsible for the hole in her hand..? The shrapnel, maybe, but that...

[ she's pretty sure there'd be shit in her side if it was responsible for the missing part of her fucking TORSO but thinking now. ]

[sixam]

[ -phone
- pack of cigarettes
- lighter
- half-eaten pack of skittles

and not in his pockets but two friendship bracelets on ig ]

[bxkautx]

I guess.

[ what if it was STUPID and she's WRONG and everyone LAUGHS at her!! ]

[mgtropes]

[it does appear that it may have been fired. he can check, but it seems it's out of ammo.]

[damp]

[ Thank you... Sips. ]

I don't want to slack while everyone else is working hard.

[honourous]

The gauntlets have been brought up as a possibility, and they would have enough strength, to be sure... but you would have to be able to get them off of her in the first place.

[mgtropes]

[ You cannot discern anything else specific about these fragments outside of what was listed above! Aka they're small (but about shotgun pellet sized) and very sparkly. ]

[halians]

...yeah. I thought so, too. [ POCKET SAND STRIKES AGAIN ] Could look to see if anyone's eyes are irritated.

...This was probably her last stand.

[rosebleed]

Fair. That could very well be the case.

We'll wait and see what the next investigations turn up? I might head out myself soon. [offers him a small smile and a nod.] Thank you for giving us more to consider, Totty. It's not something we might have expected to look for otherwise, and could have been missed if we didn't know.

[drymonster]

[ pocket contents:

- phone from home
- phone from here
- container of strawberry mints
- hand lotion ]

[bulls]

[ nods firmly after going to deposit the gross evidence there along with strohl depositing his round cheese-covered son there as well. ]

That about covers it, good work... [ sweet rin ] Take a moment for yourself.

[mgtropes]

[westie is ooc out so unfortunately you get a downgrade in east.]

Here.

[hands towel]

... You okay?

[bxkautx]

... There's been a gun in Claire's?

[damp]

[ HE'S being concerned for YOU not the other way around!! ]

I'm fine. Just... Do you have what you need to clean him up?

[sarkazm]

Could've been. If it's a full hole that could be a bullet going through.

[rosebleed]

[taking a steadying breath and offering rin a drink from the refreshments table.]

Matsuoka, thank you so much for looking it all over. Take five?

[refractures]

[ Great!

I'm going to assume the specific shotgun type isn't important... Seodore looks all around it to see if there's blood or anything on this shotgun past this awfully pink and purple and rhinestones everywhere. ]

[teenrebellion]

There was a gun in there?

[ honestly he shouldn't even be surprised ]

[damp]

Yeah. I think it's safe to say that that's where she died... and she probably went to the First Aid Room at least before heading there.

[sarkazm]

Yeah. Could've been to try and blind them-- maybe to mark them or something too? Not that we can't clean up, but...

[obdure]

[ Frowns deeply because why did you go rin and also the gravity of murder in general. ]

[mgtropes]

[that is correct, it is simply a shotgun. he will notice there are a couple of small cheese spots on it, since it was resting on a very cheesy boy.

and there is blood on the butt of the gun.]

[damp]

It's consistent with what Hulkenberg found on her body.

[ BUT ALSO... GROSS ]

[drymonster]

[ nods. ]

No problem.

[ not exactly glad to have this information to contribute, but, you know ]

[damp]

[ accepts thank you ]

... It's all so stupid.
