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!

[Is it innocent....]

That doesn't sound reassuring in the slightest.

[preordain]

[ yeah since harrow has looking at the front entrance covered, he will also just walk in unless there is something that will immediately stop them i guess

but he'll go to look at the tanks as he walks. everything good in there? the fish vibing? nothing floating ominously? ]

[birdeater]

I was in a room.

[eleusinia]

[ jokingly: ]

I'd never forget you.

[psynchronise]

[ there's a pause. ]

...

Do I get a pass to hide up there too if it all starts getting weird? [ sandwiches for a pass... ]

[bookpapers]

-- Ow. C'mon, man!

[HE JUST STAGGERS A LITTLE]

[ontrend]

Yeah, I lost a bet.

[sips water]

[hellscapes]

[ yay! the energy is really just like excited tailwagging energy. ]

It's okay. I didn't really expect you to, haha. But...maybe next week? We can do something together.

[hellscapes]

Whaaat? What was the bet?

[ they are curious... ]

[bookpapers]

[he accepts the glass gratefully u-u]

Yup! We had a bet at the casino, and I won.

But I said I'd still wear whatever he wanted me to wear, so.

[tearduct]

[Sometimes, you tell a woman you'll take her eyes and not in a romantic way.]

...Sorry for what I said anyway. But thanks.

[engineers]

We've given him enough tests he should be able to fly with it without incident. I'll show you the programming specs later, if you want to see.

[ spaceman yoru... ] The results of Hellpollo 13 were a smashing success.

[bookpapers]

[IT'S JUST ONE OUTFIT????]

[ontrend]

[touches heart... nah he actually does and he smiles a little]

Aww, thanks! I'd never forget you either.

[i for one think it would be hysterical if everyone lost their memory of him and was just like "who the fuck are you" though]

[bookpapers]

[THUMBS UP BACK he's happy to see Kura (Britt) here and functioning (hehe)]

[cavaliered]

Yeah, sure. I'll read one of those comics and hit you up.

[hardrocklife]

[just a nod to confirm.]

[toyska]

Well, I can't make any promises, but if there's anything you really want then Kon or I might be able to figure something out.

[Just volunteers Kon apparently but he figures Kon won't mind.]

[voidshift]

[hi blue hi midori. he's here with a cat to deposit.]

One more for you. Didn't want to leave her alone all day.

[ontrend]

[gestures in lavi's general direction]

We were messing around in the casino and it turns out roulette wheels like him better. So since he won, I have to be sober today.

[tearduct]

[He sees.]

I... Okay? Oh. You mean with the weird drinks? I probably should have drank one sooner...

[hellscapes]

Hellpollo 13?

[ tiredly. no. they don't care for puns. ]

Sure, I'd look at the specs. I'm surprised you pulled it off with the junk around here.

[ontrend]

[drinks from his water bottle and doesn't look too happy about it but it's fine]

[bookpapers]

[HE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING WRONG?]

...I'll try not to. Think I might let someone else handle the checks today.

[me, weeping, don't let me do this]

Kura's idea, from top to bottom. We had a bet at the casino.

[engineers]

[ that's the cutest name in the world

he holds out his hand like he's going to shake paws with this cat. ]

It's very nice to meet you, Jiji Devilcat.

[ very seriously. he will then very gently give the kitty scritches. animal magnetism. ]
