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.
...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!

I have a lot of questions about, like, all of this. Like the knife cutting his own throat? And the staff.
[ but he's thinking... ]
Think the kitchen in Congratulations unlocked? Might explain some of the burns if they fought near any of the open flames used for grilling.
no subject
I don't know if the knife cut his throat for certain. But it is a match for the size of the cut at least. And it's strange for him not to have his staff at all.
[He nods a little.]
Could be. If the burns weren't part of the attack it might explain why they were light and anywhere close to being fatal.
no subject
[ but there's a nod of agreement. ]
Kazuki and I'll go check it out. Even if there isn't much there, it should give us an idea if the place is tied to him or to Vi.

Take a breather. You did a lot to help out, and it's appreciated.
[ but he will eventually wander off to investigate. ]
no subject
[this sounds like overkill??]
no subject
Shooting him in the leg probably to get him to stop running, and then slashing his throat to try and kill him? [ a pause. ] ... I mean if Justice showed up, the shot to his head might've been somebody's last resort.
[ since um. justice will do a lot of things to try and keep anders alive. as they have all seen now. ]
no subject
He did seem pretty determined last week.
no subject
no subject
Maybe that means somebody unprepared?
no subject
[ like. fire, knife, gun. his staff is missing, too, so god knows if that was used against him. ]
Like thinking that you are confronting a cat, only to meet a lion.
no subject
They sort of... working together is a very generous interpretation of it, but yes. If Justice took over he'd try to power through to protect Anders. But you can't do much about a headshot.
