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!

There might be some other meaning. I don't know. I'm not the one who drew it.

[ yep! there's less evidence of dropping under the case because the case shielded it. ]

[ the hat is empty. the painkillers are in a small container, and they look like pills ]

[She will wave back and also pet Sirius on the head, sweet Sirius.

- it is in a clear-ish case!!! there is no visible damage or marks on the case or screen
- same for the tube of lipstick
- it's a keychain of claude........ it is also in good condition. the name claude von riegan is on it......
- yeah.....]

Yeah, apparently you get a cutesy mark on your body in exchange for a bedazzled weapon? So if it was the Claire's kind of dumb, that's probably what it is...

[ hulkenberg nods her head to siffrin, but then gives a small wave to sirius. timid baby.

- phone is largely fine, just has some corner damage from being dropped. no scratches, scuffs, etc otherwise! case is just plain black and also has some corner damage, but nothing drastic
- the ointments have seen some use and there's some missing from the pain and nausea meds

she will offer both siffrin and sirius snackies with a tired smile. she got them from the shop so take your choice. ]

[Gives her a weak smile.]

I'll need to hear what you have to say, first.

Shhh. I'm thinking about something else.

We can just keep it in mind as we keep investigating.

[his face sours visibly.]

What? Oh, maybe because I'm one of the only people who even does this stuff without being threatened? Or maybe because I did everything you asked, even the stuff I already did once, without trying to hide anything?

So, what, are you going to be like this with everyone who actually does something, and just fall over yourself for the people who dig their heels in? Sorry for trying to help!

[his full attention goes pointedly to his phone, now, and he starts typing something out furiously.]

Just go away, already!

[ tattoo... maya is a yakuza ]

[ what kind of debris? where is the trampled grass? any feetprints we can obsess over?? ]

That's how he got his staff then.

[Also this is tempting he wants a weapon...]

[ no.... it's generic.... tears up ]

[ There's four name keychains. The same kind of keychains that can be found in Xpress Stuff on the side with all the novelties. There's no visible damage to them or stains. ]

[ For Rosamund, I think the q of whether same source or different is a bit hard to discern.

Looking around this area though, she can find a few black feathers dropped here and there too. Just a few! No crows were harmed in the making of this murder, as far as you know.

When Maya takes pictures of the scuffs, she'll notice they glint a bit brightly with the flash, especially a darker... scuff? A bit further away? It doesn't seem to be a scuff, exactly. Some kind of tiny hole/crack in the wall. ]
