( TRIAL - WEEK 3 )



At exactly 11:30 am, all residents who are still asleep will be jolted awake by a sharp, burning pain that spreads across their whole body. A simple look will reveal no visible injuries, oddly enough, and the pain will fade away as soon as they're properly awake. Those early birds who are already up and about will feel nothing — except maybe a strange, mysterious sense of relief as they go on about their business. Lucky them.

Moments later, an announcement will come through the static-filled PA system:

"This is Craftly speaking. My apologies for the rude awakening [not really], but your presence is required in the Dining Hall. Our second trial is about to begin. Please do try to be there before noon. My staff members have simply too many duties to tend to, to be escorting each and every one of you out of your quarters. Good day."


And true to his words, anyone who doesn't make their way to the Dining Hall before noon will be dragged kicking and screaming regardless of where they've sequestered themselves. Sucks to be you, huh? Upon arriving there, however, residents will be given the menu, one copy of the rulebook, one pencil, one notepad, and a cheque folder. Lunch and dinner will be served at the appropriate times, and appetizers, desserts and beverages (of the non-alcoholic variety) will be available throughout the trial. All you have to do is ask one of the faceless men, and your food will be delivered to you in ten minutes or less depending on what it is.

The Dining Room itself looks about the same as it does any other day — save for the fact that the lights have been dimmed. Why this, you ask? Because the projector is now in use. Transparencies containing each resident's profile will be displayed on the pull-down screen, with one of the staff members rotating through the images every minute. The profiles of the deceased are included, and if current discussion deems it necessary to focus on one particular resident, anyone is free to ask the faceless man to pause on the appropriate profile for a while.

A small area has been sectioned off with a transparent, plastic curtain right next to the pull-down screen. Its use will become rapidly apparent once the victim's corpse has been wheeled in. Anyone who wishes to step into this area will be asked to wash their hands, and will be given a pair of latex-free gloves and a hairnet by a staff members who is stationed nearby. Residents are required to dispose of both items before returning to the dinner table; a trash bin is available outside of the curtains for this purpose.

Evidence found during the investigation, on the other hand, will be displayed in the back of the room. Two, long tables have been taken out of storage for this occasion, and any items found by the residents on Friday will be displayed here for further examination.

Finally — a clock above the pull-down screen displays the current hour. Please do remember you have until 9:00 PM to figure out whodunit and cast your vote.

( victims )



Characters will be given nine (9) hours to discuss everything related to the investigation to hopefully solve the mystery behind this week's murder. No one will be allowed to leave the Dining Hall, and all characters must cast their vote before 9PM EST. You may do so on this week's voting page.

If you have any questions or doubts, shoot us a PM or a PP over at [plurk.com profile] yuggoth.

Ohhhh, you're so cute! You're so adorable! [ hajime is regretfully one with her desires and wastes no time attempting to pull alloy in for a hug. cute girls get hugs. ]

I think Martymart killed Racchi, otherwise Miramirakku wouldn't have seen him. That would be too much coordination, and how would they know she'd be there? Or anyone at all! Maybe she was just ultra mega lucky and got a bad card. But then if Racchi died at 7:40 or so, that means that every moment with Miramirakku is wasted time.

[ a beat. ]

Also, if you're not the killer, why have him hit her with the taser? Aren't those good at knocking people out?

Why was Mira there, anyway? She said she woke up in the lounge, but it seems like she just ended up complicating the ghost's plan. And if Marty was possessed, it's not like she could be ghostwalked there. Mira's placement here makes no sense at all.

The "Three people are going to die" line is suspicious. The Ghost likely counts Hana in its kills, based on what it's been saying. I expect the 'three people' line is meant to include whoever we execute tomorrow. That accounts for Rachel and Marty, and not Mira.

Of course, all this bullshit could be meant to make us frame up Mira and hang her for the crime she didn't commit. That's in the Ghost's line too.

[suddenly being hugged??? just...awkwardly pats hajime on the shoulder there there please get off her tiny girl]

Think it had to be more than bad luck, seeing as how she says she was forced there. And I'm not sure what a taser is, but if it's anything like a shock wire, it should have at least paralyzed her for a minute or two.
g101: (have you noticed i've been gone?)

[ oh my god..........a cute girl is patting her on the shoulder. thank god hajime doesn't become useless when gay things happen to her despite HOW gay she is. ]

Who told her to go there, then? The Ghost can only control one person, right? ...And yeah, that's what it does. It shocks someone. I like to shock things to sleep instead of hurting them! It's way more helpful. So a taser does the same thing. Why hit her with it when you could shock her and then stab her?

No idea. She could be lying, but...you'd think she'd make up a better lie in that case.

And I thought she was shocked by it? [just not going to comment on hajime liking to shock things since...it's not like she can say any different]

[ theres a pause as hajime... stares before plucking ice out of a glass and places it into a napkin. not the cleanest way to do it but. ]

Keep it chilled so it will go down! Let's find you some ice cream afterwards too.

[ its that or killing things, the robot suit only has 2 modes??? :'( ]

Maybe she was? I'm not suuuure, I don't remember her saying. Just that her face was swollen and she thinks Martymart hit her with something big, like the taser found on him.

He stabbed her. Why would he have to paralyze her as well?
g101: (you made me but)

[personal profile] g101 2017-06-10 09:02 pm (UTC)(link)
It could keep her from fighting! Kinda overkill though.

[personal profile] bownthisway 2017-06-10 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
From what Mira says, it sounds like she was guarding herself so he couldn't get a good blow in. So he paralyzed her, then stabbed her when she was down.
