WEEK 3: TRIAL

[dormheads]

week three: trial

victims:

Good thing yesterday was just a dream, huh?

Just kidding. Everyone will wake up to a text on their phone that has only a simple message:

Go to the gymnasium at 12 PM. Attendance is mandatory.

Everyone is free to go to the designated spot on their own, but once it hits 11:55, any stragglers will feel compelled to go and will join the others at the gym. As soon as every student is inside, the doors will lock behind them.

All of the bleachers are out, so students are free to sit wherever they like. At the very front of the gym is a gathering of a few items, one being a large desk where two of the Dorm Heads are present. When the clock hits noon, the scoreboard turns on, starting a countdown of nine hours.

From where she's seated, Sally speaks.

"You have nine hours again. It's... you'll be able to do it. Work hard."

Better get to it. That scoreboard is ticking.

---

Hello everyone and welcome to our fourth trial! the next nine hours, the characters are expected to discuss among themselves, ask questions, examine the bodies of the victims, look over the evidence found yesterday, and revisit locations as needed in order to find the culprit(s). There'll be a one hour break from 5-6 PM EST, where no mod tags will occur.

Before the trial is over, please remember to place your character's vote over on the voting page. Voting will close at 9 PM EST, and will serve as our activity check for the week, so please be sure you get your vote in before it ends unless you have contacted us previously.

If you have any questions at any time, please let us know by pinging us on Discord!

[Manwol smirks, she cannot help but support Deception,]

That was smart of you. Whose butt did you end up kicking?

[modissty]

[Sakyou didn't claim last week because i aki was baking in the sun but--]

I had the attack pet, which I never used. I have seven vouchers left, as well. The only one I've used this week, I gave to Manwol on Thursday to help with those who returned.

[katzepaw]

Maybe you should work on better ways to comfort people. Beauregard doesn't need to be told how to cope with Mollymauk's death, because he has already died before, and she did not 'sit around and feel sorry for herself' about it.

I know you meant to show kindness, but you were arrogant.

[repress]

I had the mind-altering power. [ which he showed last week. ] I used it on Sunday.

[ no vouchers to show! ]

[branches]

I just had a theory as to why anyone would do that, related to extra credit. Mine have been relevant to me in particular so.

[disreguarded]

I used my coupon this week. Otome saw the moorbounder I bought. Mandricardo, Nier, Caiman and Molly saw a picture of him. [i forgot to put it in more threads because i was cyoa sweats]

I only used one voucher that went towards a group heal for the winters. So I have six.

[overlimit]

I had a coupon for a communication item. Yamato confirmed it earlier. Never really found a good way to use it. [her brow furrows a bit at that, but...]

Right now, I've got one voucher. [she holds it up! it has her full name written on it. yeah.]

[sawboned]

[Denji brings a handful of vouchers out of his pocket and holds them out for inspection—he looks very tired and a little grumpy, but meets Beau's eyes as he talks]

I got seven of these, and just got a new coupon on my phone. It's for somethin' called "Sensory Deprivation" whatever that is.

My sword disappeared yesterday...need anything else?

[refate]

No vouchers this week - I traded in mine for my power, and then buffing up the first aid kit after the field trip groups came back. Anyone in Winter can confirm that second one, since I did it in the dorm.

My minor mind altering spell was used on Denji last week in trial. Catra can confirm that it went from unused to being used, since I showed her the moment the request went through.

[illuminance]

Previously I had a coupon for an attack pet, but I didn't use it. This week I received a coupon for a healing item, which... I used on Caiman as soon as we saw that he was hurt.

[ ... ]

... And I have five vouchers. [ which she will present for inspection. ]

[alitaba]

[ slugs him in the shoulder??? tsuyu!!! ]

[arcsplainist]

[ For the murdergram, yo.

Aight Alphinaud will pick up a piece, then, since Kon has the weapon. ]

Indeed. One of the barriers on the way up had been missing, as well. It must have been a fierce fight...

If there is naught else, we should return with our findings.

[disreguarded]

Give me the run down again. [she's a little icy... sorry caiman.]

[goalsides]

I had an elemental spell...I should've used it while we were gone, but I didn't use it at all. [in hindsight that would've been so much smarter.

but he also holds up eleven vouchers.]

[divineimpulse]

I received the same coupon...

[branches]

[You can tell he really does feel bad about this because he doesn't just reflexively get mad like he usually does.]

I... didn't mean for it to come out like that. I just got mad about it.

[No one was in a place to be comforting anyone here.]

[shaft]

I used my coupon last week. I have five vouchers now.

[ which he will show ]

[headsplitter]

...Nah, I've got an extra credit right now and it's not that. Would be real fucked up if that's what it is, though...

[steelo]

I had an elemental spell coupon. I didn't use it.

And then... I used five vouchers this week to buy the item we talked about, and gave one to Viola for our fund.

[ math.. he reaches into his wallet and pulls out five vouchers to show though. ] Here's what I've got left.

[disreguarded]

What was your coupon? What did you spend your vouchers on this week? Did you start with more than two?

[ghoststrums]

I've got nine vouchers right now. [ he's rich until I use them all on a hint again. ]

[steelo]

[ he makes this face that looks like "shit we're idiots i had that too" from across the room ]

[disreguarded]

Did you spend your vouchers on anything this week?

[godcards]

I never used the coupon, and I only have 3 vouchers.

[ not on him, tho. ]

[ambiography]

I never used the weapon coupon, but the new one is a healing item.

[she loved getting that right AFTER everyone got fucked up, it's great, thanks. she has no problem putting that out there so people know for future injuries though.

as for the vouchers, she's got six with her.]

I haven't used any of them this week, either.
