WEEK TWO - TRIAL


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!

[ he makes a bit of a face, but there's no disagreement, technically. just dislike. ]

Can't say I love it.

Yes... for all intents and purposes, most people here have been pushed into the corner to varying degrees.

Right.

[DOES NOT SOUND CONVINCED in the most empathetic teenager fashion.]

We've... figured them all out so far? Mostly. So we'll figure it out.

Not sure if any of us will make it out alive, even the ones who do make it to the party. What's keeping Satan from just offing all of us, permanently.

There's always a catch. But it could be inconsequential -- depending on how desperate you are to get back to your life. Especially if you were in a situation where other people were depending on you.

[like bucky]

aquarium investigation report

[ everyone probably just watched him walk in here with a body wrapped in harrow's robes, so, cool, he's already got your attention! ]

Well, I think you already know what one of our findings was, but I shall summarize!

The tank where the octopus normally resides was broken — there was a large hole in the glass where it appeared that something had smashed into it, one large enough for Mr. Asuka to unceremoniously fall into! There was also a somewhat oddly shaped bloody smudge on the glass, round with some streaks.

The second body of our unnamed friend was found on the floor in that same room, along with shattered glass and blood splatters, and a room key and notebook which have been brought back for your perusal.

While the fish from the tank were all dead on the floor (and extremely pungent!), the octopus itself was nowhere to be found, so...

[ shrugs, WE'RE ALL THINKING THE SAME THING ]

There was a small trail of blood droplets leading back from the room in what appeared to be the direction of the bar, and two sets of wet footprints and blood leading in the direction of the onsen, so I think we at least have a fairly good idea of what our next investigation areas should be.

—Ah, I will also state for the record that Miss Nonagesimus's robe was in fine condition before she generously offered it up for the purpose of transporting the body.

Open for questions! ☆

Twenty people only.

Not sure if it still counts if you get caught and executed, though.

This is just some game to him, probably, free entertainment to see us all fight for spots.

Definitely. Eliminate the impossible, and whatever remains, no matter how improbable, is the truth.

[ so. they'll get it. ] I've got faith in us, even if it's been a little rough, so far.

Might be more helpful, even, if they forgot to lie to us.

We're all dead. Most of us have unfinished business we left behind. It's... not hard to see why it keeps happening.

No.

Haha...y-yeah, getting our hopes up just to smack it down at the last moment? Truly plausible!

[Sure would be par for the course in here!]
