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!

It ain't even 'bad' anymore. Just straight up tired.

[IT WASN'T EVEN FUNNY THE FIRST TIME <-- lavi's thoughts, i thought it was funny tho]

[greatvalue]

Like beating a dead spiderhorse...

[bookpapers]

...Spiderhorse?

[greatvalue]

Yes.

[bookpapers]

Which part's the spider and which part's the horse....?

[greatvalue]

It's... just a spiderhorse.

[Help.]

[bookpapers]

[the way he's gonna demand a picture after this]

[refate]

Please don't jinx us into having something as horrible sounding as a spiderhorse next week.

[greatvalue]

[????]

What's horrible about a spiderhorse?

[cavaliered]

Everything.

[greatvalue]

... Humans get weird about spiderhorses. Noted.

[astika]

Humans have a limited worldview, so they get weird over a lot of things.

[refate]

Describe to me what a spiderhorse is for you. Eight legs? Mandibles? A million eyes? That's what I'm picturing.

[engineers]

Is it horse sized or spider sized....?

[greatvalue]

Spider sized isn't a thing. They're all different sizes.

[tearduct]

[Looks away in canon and does not acknowledge anything that will embarrass him as much as he has already done himself this past week.]

[refate]

[ wise, but also now i want to know, anna ]

[greatvalue]

What? Mandibles? No.

It's, you know, a snout? Ears? Two eyes? A horn on its forehead? Eight legs and two dozen eyeballs on its stomach? A spiderhorse.

[refate]

[ TWO DOZEN EYEBALLS?????? ]

I need a drink.

[awol]

[ a what? and what? hello?

/shuts eyes ]

[toyska]

[You know

he's used to some pretty wild and creepy shit

but even he is like what the fuck man]

[engineers]

Oh, I have so many questions I want to ask you about this when we're done...

[polyglotti]

[She's nodding along, because yeah, that sounds about right.]

[ontrend]

[polyglotti]

Can we please stop talking about spiderhorses?

[She might be uncomfortable because of her world's version of a spiderhorse. (CW: zombie related body horror and gore)]
