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!

This is easily the best part of trial.

[ immediately handing yoru a tiny plastic umbrella you put in drinks ]

[engineers]

[ alright well. here's lu bixing, off to very carefully investigate, with gloves and all, his personal device projecting a screen over his hand so he can make observations while he works.





i really hate that i have to write this first. does nameless have all of his body parts as far as we can tell. what's noticeable at first glance? ]

[outsidebones]

[ignores the rules gimme whoever.]

Good morning.

[hellscapes]

Oh man, really? I've got all kinds of skills! Hit me again!

[ with. what. cosmo. don't be greedy and try to get more sandwiches from date. ]

[teufelshund]

[ looking up at cosmo ]

Looks like you've got a nice view from up there. I'm a little jealous!

[hellscapes]

[ they do text something... to someone... who could it be...

then they grab a box of food prep gloves from behind the counter to slide over to lbx ]

Here~

COLD OPEN ig

[cavaliered]

[hello, hellions, gideon watches everybody mingle and get settled and eat childe's food, and eventually she just says, loudly, because she has a naturally loud voice:]

Hey, are we doing the mystery solving? There's a guy that's dead. [...] Uh.

[she does not know his name. i am so sorry mira.]

What is it that we usually do? Tell me where you slept, I guess.

[polyglotti]

[I turned to Google for education here, so!]

...did you make these?

[hardrocklife]

[Coming up to the bar after seeing Hunter and Kon do so. Hi, Blue Hawaiian and Midori.]

... This where the babysitting service is?

[psynchronise]

[ who do you take him for? he absolutely has another sandwich. ]

Alright, fast ball.

[ he is just YEETING THAT SANDWICH. at this, the trial of sweet nameless with many names. it's what he would've wanted. ]

[tearduct]

[He slinks in not making eye contact with a single anyone, and he also doesn't make eye contact with Blue when he gets to the bar.

There is a misshapen lump in the shoulder of his shirt.]

Can I have a drink?

CURFEW LOCATIONS

[cavaliered]

[stop i had to go look and see what we usually do]

[hellscapes]

[ peering from their perch. ]

Best seat in the house! I can see everything from up here. Which is good because you guys tend to get a little messy.

[hellscapes]

[ midori perks up and sits up straighter, though they try not to show it. ]

Morning.

SUGGESTIONS FOR SEARCH

[cavaliered]

[??????]

[refate]

[ waves back happily!! kon does not seem to mind as he makes sure that his uh. jetpack. is on correctly. ]

[hellscapes]

Like marshmallow?

[ but she's black ....... they are taking a picture of flapjack ]

[hellscapes]

[ hahahahaha

no he does not. guess what's missing! (it's an arm.) (that's not a joke.) ]

[refate]

Ohhh! [ immediately happily playing with it, as kon secures his jetpack. yes they brought it to trial. ]

Figured you guys would be fine with the company again.

[engineers]

....Good job, Gideon.

[ help. she did her best ]

I was at the new aquarium bar, with Lin, Persephone and Childe.

[toyska]

Mmhmm. They're the best I could do with what we've got, but I figured we could use something a little more filling than bar food, for once.

[Maybe this time we won't have to check for arms]

[failbo]

I slept on the floor, haha...

[Filbo, just because Gideon was right there with you and others doesn't mean you can just say that and call it a day. Still, looks like he's in good mood today, even though the victim was, you know, someone he liked and said would support as much as possible. This week's effect hasn't loosened its grip on him, pretty much]

[preordain]

Akira and I were in the gift shop.

He's normal now.

[cavaliered]

[... she also wants up there. what if she did cold open from up there. it's too late but listen she's going to try climbing??]

[hellscapes]

[ there's a noise like a startled "EH!?" before they lean really far to catch it, hoarding the sandwich again. ]

Thanks for the offerings!
