WEEK 3: TRIAL

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!

Yeah, we do. We have a few, I'm sure.
ghoststrums: (ain't picture perfect)

[personal profile] ghoststrums 2021-07-03 05:44 pm (UTC)(link)
So we'll do that. We've got to make sure we get this right.

[ so they don't accidentally the real killer. he squeezes her hand a bit. also i keep forgetting he has pinprick scabs on his palms i should've mentioned yesterday whatever ]

We make sure it's right.

This seems too easy. We're going to have to make sure it's actually him. If someone controlled him, does that make them responsible?

[why.... scabs...]
ghoststrums: (for reality yes in the end)

[personal profile] ghoststrums 2021-07-03 05:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ask him later, it's a mystery ]

It should be like the accomplice thing, but... I can ask.
ghoststrums: ('till i say i'm sorry)

[personal profile] ghoststrums 2021-07-03 06:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[ coming back with it; ]

If it's someone who was controlled, both the person doing the controlling and the person who was controlled would show up as guilty.

[ so. hrm. bad. ]

[a pause. very calmly:]

I would like to find the person who did the controlling, if that's the case.
ghoststrums: (it's been three days)

[personal profile] ghoststrums 2021-07-03 06:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[ he'll squeeze her hand again ]

... Yeah. Me too. That's why we have to know for sure.

I made a list of the people who had mind-altering powers last week, if that's what we're thinking.

But... at the same time, we've thought these kills might be compelled somehow for a while now. When we came back from the place on Thursday, we had the paper - you guys had the paper with the fill in the blanks too, right?

So, I guess... if we're thinking whoever runs this shithole thought they wanted more drama, what if they had a script they had to follow? It's just more theories.
ghoststrums: (though I feel bad)

[personal profile] ghoststrums 2021-07-03 06:19 pm (UTC)(link)
I've thought about that, too. But right now, I want to make sure someone didn't use powers or a voucher to do this. Any bigger theory-- any bigger theory can and should wait until later, if there's nothing we can do with it right now.

[ even though he really does think this is relevant to their overall problems ]
steelo: (218)

[personal profile] steelo 2021-07-03 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Agreed.

[ all i have are Theories TM ]

I did confirm with Vi-chan earlier this week that you can't trade your coupons, too. I wanted to try and get a communication one because I wanted to test something out instead of what I had, and that wasn't possible.
ghoststrums: (but in the end there's a drag)

[personal profile] ghoststrums 2021-07-03 06:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. You can't give them away, either, or I'd have given my healing one to Yanagiya-san.

[ but it's fine he used it on an arm instead ]
steelo: (69.)

[personal profile] steelo 2021-07-03 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[ nods... ]

I think - I don't know. Let's back up and make sure everyone who had a mind control one has an alibi, just to make sure. Start there.

Sounded like Mandricardo was the only one who hadn't used his yet.
