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!

sort of looks more like horns with how dark those parts are

No horns I've seen on a person before. But if they were possessed, then perhaps taking on traits of something?

could be metaphorical horns too ig
like someone associated with demons

[ just says this out loud he's voice to text anyway ]

Hold on - didn't we have another piece of evidence with someone wearing a pointed hat? The puzzle?

...Could it be that person was out of their head?

Do we even have a method to check for potential possession?

Sure as hell didn't last week. And we've not one to check on a corpse, either.

[ which he looks like he hates saying ]

Which certainly makes this an easy question to answer.

[ mutters something incredibly quietly about smacking talismans ]

Just have to rely on the evidence that we have, in the end.

[ frowning at the drawing again... reaches up and touches one of his horns like damb ]

May we solve this swiftly then.

[ eyeballs his horns like, congrats suspect number 5 ]

What, the wizard? That was supposed to be Anders, right?

Right. That... little picture for the task, that's supposed to be a devil, isn't it? If that's supposed to represent "evil" - which is rude, by the way - maybe that'd be a quick way to express someone was out of their mind.

[ folding his arms... ]

I guess it probably could.

...Trying to think like Vi, at least.

[ simple.......... love you vi ]

[the microaggressions happening in this conversation]

[ looks up from her phone where she was also voice to text. ]

... could it be true, then, that one of them might have attacked the other? Perhaps Anders pursued Vi, but was caught afterwards by his own assailant?

[ he looks deeply unhappy about this actually, mouth squiggling into a complicated line. ]

If that's the case, then - we've no way of confirming it, I imagine, save for the evidence at hand.

I do see where you get the thought, if the image is meant to be a tall hat like the wizard puzzle and horns are meant to signify evil. [ which, rude. racist. but strohl already said it aloud. ] Or, perhaps...

If the person was possessed and inflicted with something akin to Scawwy's troubles, they could have physically had such horns.
