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!

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.

[mgtropes]

The auditors probably just wanted to... force you to bond for the first week, or something like that. [tired.] I wouldn't read too much into it.

[teenrebellion]

And yet they say these teams don't matter.

[mgtropes]

Not for the murder part, at least, but...

[a shrug. not in the sense that that bit is false don't get the wrong idea, but unrelated to murder sometimes one has bonding whims, apparently.]

[teenrebellion]

[ wanders back here. ]

Okay, you said they'd be free of possession afterward, if they survived the vote. Is there still a chance they can be possessed again later? I'd assume yes?

[mgtropes]

[a slow nod]

Not at any increased risk, necessarily, but there's technically nothing stopping them from being... especially unlucky.

[teenrebellion]

So it's really just a matter of luck...? [ hah. ] Yikes.

Thanks, East-san. I think this is giving them all some relief, even if it's not perfect. Better than nothing.

[mgtropes]

[a nod]

... I think we'll all take better than nothing, at this point.

[teenrebellion]

Yeah, true enough. And two is better than... [ trails off. anyway,

he sighs. ] Well. Wish us luck.

[mgtropes]

Good luck. You have all my wishes there, for every trial.
