WEEK THREE - TRIAL


Hello, deadlings. We're right back at it, huh?

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 Bloody Mary, Malibu Sunset and RosΓ©. With them is also a cut-out of Guy Fieri, dressed as a (sexy?) samurai with a bunch of cool flames cut out of construction paper glued to his back as he walks away from an explosion. He is also holding a sign that says "YOU CAN SOLVE IT!" However, there are now paper tears glued to his face as well.

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 fourth 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!

Mind finding out? I think I'm going to go look into things a bit more.

[he goes to sniff with a look of resignation...

and comes back.]


Definite beer breath. Though I don't think that was the only alcoholic smell on the body.

[...]

The damp spot smelled... I don't know. Vaguely salty. [so not like beer.]

[Why.]

Does anyone know if the beer in the new bar does anything like the beer in the other one that one time?

[ nerd hours ]

The beer? It did taste better than the beer in the other bars, but when I ran tests on it, I couldn't really find anything conclusive. The other two drinks definitely had impacts, but this is the only place that the beer's been different.

[oh i did not type that right but it's fine method acting]

Ran tests...? You're a real nerd.

[but like (affectionate)]

Thanks for checking though, I guess?
engineers: (fuck a horoscope sign)

[personal profile] engineers 2023-03-04 08:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ehe ]

I've been testing the drinks since the love potion incident a few weeks ago. I'm always looking for volunteers if you're interested in trying one out in a controlled environment.

And that's Professor Nerd to you!

[personal profile] tearduct 2023-03-04 08:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay, Professor Nerd.

[THE WAY HE LOOKS LIKE A TEENAGER WHEN LOVE POTION IS MENTIONED.]

Sure...? Wouldn't be the first time.

[ cute... he grins at him. hehe ]

Only if you want to. I'll come up with some compensation for it - I don't have any money, but I could at least make you a good meal afterwards.

...Perhaps if you ask the demons, they could confirm whether the beer in this bar has any effect?
engineers: (i got the science in the back)

[personal profile] engineers 2023-03-04 08:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[ but he LIKES solving it by himself

no im kidding he'll go ask ]

[personal profile] hardrocklife 2023-03-04 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Wait. The beer was different this week?
astika: (threat-3-1)

[personal profile] astika 2023-03-04 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Would the demons know?
tearduct: (pic#16181871)

[personal profile] tearduct 2023-03-04 08:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe...? I guess I can ask.

[maybe he is cute and they will tell him]
