WEEK TWO - TRIAL

[hellscapes]

Hello, deadlings. Wow. Just...wow.

You may have been wondering what you could possibly do in the aftermath of yesterday's beek. Your demons weren't entirely helpful, and it seems that there were no answers to be found. But on Saturday morning at 11am, you'll soon hear a sound coming from the dock. There's a large ferry waiting for you, and even if you resist you'll eventually find yourself compelled to climb aboard and set off on a short voyage. The islands around you look fairly blurry, but you don't go very far before you stop at a slab of land with two large buildings stationed. The Execution Bar is locked tight and you won't be able to head in that direction. Instead, once again, your feet navigate you to the building on the right as the door creaks open.

Inside is a bar. It's dimly lit in several places, but bright enough for you to see each other and navigate without running into the furniture. Tables and chairs are scattered around in front of the bar counter, and the floor is far less sticky than the bar on the other island. Stained glass windows decorate the walls depicting images of humanity's suffering, and concrete crosses and tombstones are gathered in the corners. The bar itself is fully stocked with all types of alcohol and mixers, along with an array of bar food to help keep your energy up.

At the head of the room lounging among the statues of saints and the Blessed Virgin are Blue Hawaiian, Cosmopolitan and Midori.

Above them hangs another hand-painted banner, sloppily thrown together.

CONGRATS ON YOUR TRIAL!
12pm - 9pm
Vote or suffer eternal damnation

You can try to leave, but the door to the bar has been locked. All of the windows are reinforced, and there isn't another way out. You've been called here for one reason...let the misery begin!

Hello, and welcome to your third trial! Over the course of the next nine hours, characters will have the opportunity to discuss, investigate and theorize about this week's murder! Characters will have time to examine the body of the victim and explore relevant locations.

There will be a mod-tag break between 4pm EST/1pm PST to 5pm EST/2pm PST. While the trial may continue and players can tag each other, mod-led threads such as questions and investigations will be on hold.

Finally, we have a voting page for characters to vote on the culprit! Please be sure to read this page carefully and that your vote is in by the time trial finishes (9pm EST/6pm PST).

Good luck, and have fun!

[KURA...... how's ur head buddy]

Sure. Help yourself, there's plenty.

[hellscapes]

[ midori gives the beetle a little tiny pet with one finger. claw. whatever. they're careful! ]

You want him to do laps?

[astika]

You're going to get overly energetic at some point and trip over yourself.

[psynchronise]

He seems pretty miserable without one. [ which is valid, this sucks. ]

But, yeah. I think he'd do good with or without them, really. How'd you lose the fashion bet though?

[ontrend]

[he's fine he is drinking nothing but water rn]

...damn, you're a pretty good cook.

[polyglotti]

[ITTO STOP USING YOUR BROKEN ARM

I'm sure he used his non-broken arm for this, but.]

[hellscapes]

Really? [ don't sound so surprised. ] Okay! Then good! That's a good plan.

[tearduct]

It's better than nothing. Hopefully, it won't happen again.

[refate]

[ he doesn't seem bothered by this, as long as lavi doesn't break his neck. stop yaywon. ]

Plenty enough of us to throw on investigations, at least, so hopefully won't be necessary.

[voidshift]

Yours, or a different one?

[what if we just guess]

[engineers]

[ sorry his nose bleeds a little bit LOUDLY CLEARS HIS THROAT AND WIPES HIS FACE ]

Yes! Definitely.

[tearduct]

[Gives

him a look.]

At least tell someone if you're about to eat dirt.

[polyglotti]

[Stage-whispering to Zelgadis:]

He got caught in a bathroom last week, maybe he's embarrassed to say he ended up there again.

[birdeater]

[ I’m sorry???? what are these words? ]

[toyska]

Haha, I used to cook for my family a lot. I fell out of the habit for a while, but there's only so much to do around here.

[hellscapes]

Good luck~ or whatever.

[ they wave. they have no faith in you all. ]

[firstandgreatest]

[ its a beetle so its just chillin'. a friend. :) ]

Yeah! Look, I might have gotten all fucked up, but you can't break the training routine! AK-47 is gonna be a lean, mean, fighting-machine by the time another beetle shows up, so he's gotta take this seriously. Dedication!

[hardrocklife]

... I see.

[He nods. It must be the bathroom again.]

[psynchronise]

[ akira this past week. ]

[eleusinia]

..................

I need a drink.

[teufelshund]

[ lmao ]

Really should have put a "slippery when wet" sign out here.

[ also going to be walking extra carefully now, thank you for your service, ryo.

he continues in the direction of the water sound, and if it gets too dark, he'll take his phone out of his pocket and shine the flashlight ahead of them to make sure they aren't missing anything. ]

[tearduct]

[IS IT...

The cat will put its little patchy paw onto Lu's hand. Like when Simba sticks his paw in his dad's pawprint.]

I'll leave him at the bar with the rest, I guess... if you wanted to pet him more.

[The skrunkly kitten mewls.]

[outsidebones]

[what would be the romantic way.]

[ontrend]

[eats more blini...]

Yeah, ain't that the truth. Well... thanks! A good breakfast is an important part of starting your day or whatever, right?

[cracks his knuckles]

Let's get to work.

[hellscapes]

[ it would have been a no without the second sandwich. ]

So sooner than later? Haha, okay.
