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!

I won, actually. But I said I'd get dressed up anyway.

[lavi felt bad for inflicting cold turkey on kuranosuke....]

We were playing that roulette game? With the red and black slots.

[polyglotti]

[Sometimes all it takes is a sweet young woman who is pushing buttons on purpose and hiding that behind an innocent smile.]

Oh! Then I guess you were in different places.

[engineers]

[ ahem

thank you ]

[bookpapers]

[NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO]

[hellscapes]

[ since you're all now going the same way, including ryo who ate shit and died...

...yes! there is in fact a broken tank ahead! as they walk further into the area, they are soon hit with the rancid smell of dead fish. there's water on the ground, along with some broken glass that's been swept up in the little river, but the biggest mess is next to the very obviously broken tank.

there are also several things on the ground that they can see from where they are, but they're still too far to get a good sense even with the light from mephisto's phone. there's a larger object near the tank itself, bundled on the ground. there are several smaller items nearby the larger object as well.

water is still dripping out of the tank as well.

what first? ]

[bookpapers]

You can be happy instead, you know?!?

[reignite]

[ color everyone surprised ]

Your "too edgy to cooperate" attitude throughout these nine hours isn't either. It's the third case already, we're already prepared for what happens and goes.

You can save your embarrassment for later and just tell her what room.

[bookpapers]

I'll make sure to tell ya!

[they're bros now... forever]

[awol]

[ what are you thinking about. ]

[reignite]

[ ]

[outsidebones]

[well. okay.

what's the big object bundled on the ground. she'll approach, carefully.]

[hellscapes]

It takes time. The little guy looks better in general and that's what matters.

[ ... ]

But maybe we can make him a sweater.

[bookpapers]

[JUST SADLY EATS A BLINI]

S'fine, these are yummy too... [don't talk with your mouth full]

[hellscapes]

[ amazing. ]

If this is excellence, I'd hate to see low effort.

[astika]

It would be an incident that resulted from your own foolishness. Happiness over it not occurring is too much.

[birdeater]

[ thumbs up ]

[greatvalue]

[walk, walk, fashion birdie...]

... Sunny, huh. [blue sunset real?] You seem to like him, too.

[bookpapers]

[HIS FCKING FISH]

Thanks, Kon.

[astika]

[yeah you go off girl]

[psynchronise]

What a good sport.

[ did he wants to be stylish.... ]

Oh, yeah I know the one. I haven't been in the casino since earlier in the week.

[hellscapes]

There's only room for a few of you up here, and it goes to the ones with the best offerings! [ yeah!

but they glance at the bar, too. ]

You should ask Blue. They know everything about the bar.

[outsidebones]

[she gently shakes the vial of purple beverage back and forth.]

Do let me know if we feel it is needed.

[toyska]

[On pure reflex, in the tone of someone who has 3 younger siblings and had to help raise them--]

Don't talk with your mouth full.

[polyglotti]

Fishing for compliments, are we?

[bookpapers]

Guess I'll settle for pleasantly surprised then.

[chandra being pleasantly surprised.... a cute image]
