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!

You leave this alone.

[His tone is suddenly a little sharp.]

We will be getting to the bottom of what happened, regardless of whether asking questions hurts someone's feelings.

Hey, ease up. [steps a bit in between, not aggressively] Not like tellin' her offs gonna put your friend's head back on, dude.

[he does make a sorry face at Beau, but isn't budging from where he is until Mabel can be shuffled away]

Denji.

[Ichiro tried Big Bro!

It's not very effective...]

[His expression is thin.]

And your barging in and trying to prevent people from asking questions will not save your friend from the noose. If he is innocent, the best thing for him is to find out everything we can.

So if you would like to sign his death warrant, by all means, continue acting as you are.

And if you think he did it save us all some time and kill 'im yourself if ya got the guts for it.
katzepaw: (engraved object)

[personal profile] katzepaw 2021-07-03 06:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Guts, certainly. But for the moment, not the inclination.
sawboned: (pic#14944829)

[personal profile] sawboned 2021-07-03 06:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Tch, incline away, dude.

You seem all smart, so I'm sure you can figure it all out without bein' a jerk about it.
katzepaw: (pebble)

[personal profile] katzepaw 2021-07-03 06:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm afraid I am short on patience today for anyone who is planning to put hurt feelings before getting to the bottom of this.

And that is that.

[somehow, the effects of Nice Week cut through, and Denji's posture loosens a little before he walks away]

He was a nice guy. Sorry for your loss.
feytality: That's the real shock of this icon (It almost looks like she has boobs)

[ just putting a hand on his shoulder ]

[personal profile] sawboned 2021-07-03 06:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[it loosens him up a bit, probably enough for his non-apology to caleb]
foreversweaterweather: (you DISGUST me.)

[personal profile] foreversweaterweather 2021-07-03 06:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Fine, then, we will! And when he's innocent you'll feel bad about blaming him!

[can someone please stop beau from trying to throttle a 3 year old]
modissty: (mmmmmmmaybe not)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-03 06:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[Beau do you need a gentle hand to the shoulder because he can deliver that.]

[personal profile] disreguarded 2021-07-03 06:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[a long sigh, and her shoulders come down from her ears.]
modissty: (the passion of the pure)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-03 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[He'll just vibe nearby in case she needs another shoulder hand...]

[apologetic look becomes fiercely defensive look]
katzepaw: (pinch of dust)

[personal profile] katzepaw 2021-07-03 06:04 pm (UTC)(link)
When he is innocent, my very dear friend will still have had his head cut off, and I suspect that will continue to take the priority for me.
foreversweaterweather: (was disgust too strong a word?)

[personal profile] foreversweaterweather 2021-07-03 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Oh. Well.

She shrinks at that, thoroughly shamed. ]
