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!

East-san's said that even if there are two possessed killers, they should be free of it within the next week. So we don't have to worry as much about them if we can't vote for them. They won't just be stuck like that.

[feytality]

Well.... that's good, at least.

[ better than infinite possession ]

[teenrebellion]

Sounded like that was a big deal in some of the other games, so figured it wouldn't hurt to ask.

It's something, anyway.

[selfimmolation]

At least we don't have to worry about that.

[ we just have to worry about figuring out if they were possessed or not in the first place!! yay ]

[obdure]

That's some relief...

[ our possession cycle ]

[sootprints]

[ lifting her head sharply at this

and then nodding. ]

[teenrebellion]

...You okay?

[frotag]

[ uh oh...? ]

Katie?

[feytality]

[ just squeezes her hand ]

[drymonster]

[ pats her shoulder. finally some good news! ]

[ballies]

[ nods slowly. ]

Well, that's something.

[halians]

Small mercy.

[ with a soft huff. that's good!!!!]

[damp]

So there's no need to prioritize...

[bxkautx]

Oh, cool. So if you want to try and avoid getting votes pretend to be possessed for sure.

[teenrebellion]

Not how it works, Alex.

[feytality]

If it's like last week, possessed killers won't even remember they did anything until after the verdict, so it's not gonna work regardless.

[ or will it ]

[sixam]

[ as usual, reaching up to pull her hair. stop. ]

[bulls]

[ oh looks up at this instantly and just...

relief, perhaps. it still sucks and his brow is still furrowed, but like when isn't it. ]

[teenrebellion]

[ yeah you're the reason he asked, buddy. ]

Better, maybe. Not perfect, though.

[obdure]

[ all of y'all getting so sad and he gets you... but goddamn. ]

How many of these games ran on some kind of affliction or possession?

[ why is life in mg like this ]

[rosebleed]

[This should be a comfort but also sits here in M E M O R I E S

Just going to look away at this.]

[agleam]

[giving her a concerned glance]

Rosamund?

[peripheries]

They still should face justice, regardless.

[psynchroneyes]

Eugh. I mean, that's a good thing obviously, but why do we have to deal with this possession thing again...

[sixam]

... may not be stuck, sure, but do we know if they're then still susceptible to being possessed all over again later?
