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 isn't a real top level but Childe has brought a bunch of """homemade""" blini for y'all so enjoy your pancakes "pixi are you just celebrating that new art" yeah]

[polyglotti]

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

...did you make these?

[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]

[polyglotti]

Well, thank you for that. I didn't expect to see blinis here.

[She's a little happy actually, a familiar food from home :(]

[toyska]

[THEIR EUROPEAN PANCAKES... I would have him mention maslenitsa but I'm too scared to get things wrong so he just nods un understanding]

With any luck, we'll get a real market eventually.

[bookpapers]

[i hope he dosed all of these with love potion (breaks skateboard)

lavi will wander over, looking Tired, but also food that's not alcohol or bar snacks!]

Oh, these look good.

[toyska]

[STOP WHY WOULD HE DO THAT]

I figured they were a better choice than seafood.

[Maybe they'll need to do a smell check or something and then they'd only be able to smell fish]

[bookpapers]

[he forgot that it was love potion....]

Yeah? That reminds me... I missed out on sushi night...

[BECAUSE HE FCKING FORGOT WHAT FISH ARE]

[refate]

Oh, cheers.

[ this is a good idea, bringing actual food. also because they worked in the kitchen together he's like no this is good he'll eat this. ]

[toyska]

[Yeah!!! Lordt.]

We might as well make this a habit, if we'll be stuck in here every week.

[Part of this is him being a housewife but part of this is also just him personally not wanting to go 9 hours with just bar food when he doesn't have to tbh]

[refate]

When we inevitably have to do this again next week, I'll swing by and help.

[ if we're both alive, but he doesn't have to say that. it's kind of a given at this point. ]

The bar food does get old real quick.

[greatvalue]

[looking at the blini like they're the funniest thing tbh]

Oh. They're like pancakes...

[toyska]

[I'm gonna be real I've never had a blini so I have no clue what the differences are

But Childe nods!]

Yes, they're similar. We don't have everything I'd normally use with them, but I thought we could use something filling.

[greatvalue]

It was a good idea. Thanks, Childe.

[awol]

[ this is a real comment he is going to take a minute to just actually.

eat.

and look like he's enjoying them a little bit. huh. ]

[toyska]

[He is v pleased you're welcome]

[engineers]

Childe, you're going to spoil us rotten with your food. Thank you.

[ tastey... thank you ]

[toyska]

Haha, even I have to do something besides fight sometimes.

[No he absolutely could just fight for 8 weeks straight but the point stands]

[engineers]

You live a very interesting life, you know!

[ fighting and feeding... what hobbies.... ]

Next time, I'd love to come cook with you again. If you wouldn't mind! I can't help much with the latter, but cooking's no problem.

[ontrend]

Hey... thanks for breakfast.

[eats some blini]

[toyska]

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

Sure. Help yourself, there's plenty.

[ontrend]

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

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

[psynchronise]

[ comes in here late. ]

Oh wow, you were busy huh?

[toyska]

I thought I might as well, if we're going to be stuck here no matter what.

[psynchronise]

Nine hours without anything to eat is a lot, especially when we're running around.

[ ... ]

I did bring sandwiches, but uhh. They went to a higher cause.
