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]

[ i stow away in sisi's mcr luggage so i can pop out like a feral raccoon and chew flurry's face off

unfortunately, hulkenberg drank some of this cheese on a dare/out of her voracious curiosity, so does it smell exactly like the kind that's in the murder museum? ]

[ballies]

[ i thought you were calling her a frittata and was like sure??? i guess??? she will accept some frittata. ]

Thanks.

[agleam]

Are you alright?

[mgtropes]

[i'm sure it won't.]

Best of luck, Maya.

[sootprints]

Ah...

All right. Our investigation teams will need to keep that in mind.

[obdure]

[ He looks over what's available first and does decide he will take a frittata at the end. ]

[feytality]

[ he better be ]

[halians]

Logic, evidence, truth and justice.

[ half murmured, like a mantra. ]

If someone is afflicted by something like Boothill was - say we don't catch them. Do we know what happens then, or would that be something to rely on the experience of others for? [ it looks like he's going to say a name and then scowls. ]

...The other place, the woman only snapped out of it when we caught her.

[mgtropes]

[ :pleading_face: who would midtrial suddenly and without warning ]

There isn't.

Would you intend to stop it if someone showed intention?

[peakfan]

[ we gossiped and did our nails what else do you do at a slumberparty ]

[nascens]

[Ryo... Free yourself........]

[feytality]

Oh, that's good news! Pet her for me, okay?

[ maya you could pet her yourself ]

[frotag]

Snowboarding accident.

[foreverphantom]

Looks like our killers just really hate pets.

[mgtropes]

[ satisfied with this ]

[peakfan]

[ pats his shoulder ]

[mgtropes]

[ Hands her a drink to go along with it too. Go get 'em today, killer (not literal)! ]

[feytality]

Right. Hopefully he can help us out, too.

[ like frumpkin ]

[honourous]

[ so cosy so friendly. she brushes her arm into his as they stand there, shifting her stance enough to do it. ]

[lifeless]

[wait rosie in this aesthetic next to manwol.... they are so cute together wow]

I'd prefer to stay in our lounge again than in a room with twenty other people.

[teenrebellion]

Good to know.

[ nods. that was his main question here. ]

I know this isn't important, but what changed? Last week, we were forced back into the lounges on Thursday night. This week, it's normal and we can go wherever we want.

[ballies]

None of you were injured or anything, were you? No weird bruises or marks? If there was a scuffle there, then you might have signs of getting caught in the crossfire.

[ ... ]

Otherwise, it's hard to say. I'm guessing it doesn't log when changes were made...? That might be something to check.

[mgtropes]

[it does smell like the murder museum nacho cheese, yes. waow. good thing hulkenberg drank some of it before it got used in a murder.]

[feytality]

Or pets really hate killers...

[ remembers frumpkin attacking boothill ]

[halians]

[ ughghgh his face crumples a little - just a there and back again flash, and he subconsciously brings a hand up over the tattoo again. ]

... Said I would with you, for her. Let me keep one damned promise, at least. [ ... ] Can't guarantee I'll be great company no matter what the outcome is, but I'll stay true to my word.
