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!

You don't think someone would actually do that, do you?

[ less judgmental and more "are they really that delusional" vibes ]

[bxkautx]

Again, it's really just violently putting someone in timeout for a couple of weeks... Seems like a good trade.

[teenrebellion]

...It's a little more than that. It's still someone's life.

[halians]

He's right. This damned place trivializes it enough. Let's not encourage it.

[teenrebellion]

[ he still doesn't agree with you on the justice part of this but. things are complicated. ]

[halians]

[ justice...is cool..... ]

If it really was just "time out", then our killers might just confess, and we could get out of here faster, and with the truth in hand. We all know that's not going to happen.

[ the confess tl that doesn't work :'( ] So if they're too afraid to face it, then the least we can do is treat their victims, our friends, with some damned dignity.

[teenrebellion]

[ it's not. ]

Doubt it works that way, especially with "possession" on the table. And if it's anything like our game, they might lose out on something if they do, aside from potentially being erased tomorrow. Not a real incentive to confess - and that's just being pragmatic, not afraid.

...But the victims should be treated with dignity, regardless.

[halians]

Exactly what I mean.

[ yeah!!! he nods cause you got it in one my guy ]

They should be, and they will be. [ with no room for argument. ] Anyone who thinks otherwise can take that up with me.

[bxkautx]

[ decides not to argue about this but clearly does not agree. ]

[halians]

[ rattles her brain like a maraca (me, not icly) ]
