( 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.

Okay, but that doesn't stop you from killing them later if you learn their roles?

Look, I haven't killed anyone so far. Besides, it doesn't really do me any good to kill someone like this if it means I'll just get executed. It's better if I wait for you to kill each other.
pinesfortruth: (i'm gay and it's really hard)

0 points on the reassuring. Wait, no. You know what. -10.

I'd rather trust a person who tells me their intentions instead of one who lies and hides their meaning.
pinesfortruth: (uhhhh why)

[personal profile] pinesfortruth 2017-06-10 07:49 pm (UTC)(link)
People can do both, you know.

[the world's smallest cynic]
splinten: appl-juice42 @ tumblr (your PRAYING WRONG)

[personal profile] splinten 2017-06-10 07:50 pm (UTC)(link)
People can. Velvet almost definitely can't.
pinesfortruth: (ew now i gotta wash my hands)

[personal profile] pinesfortruth 2017-06-10 07:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Alright, fine, trust who you want. I'm just saying if it was me who had to spill my role, I wouldn't go for her. She accused them based on weak evidence and now she's trying to get to learn their roles, and that's just off to me.

I can't judge the paranoia. Hopefully it will keep you and maybe even others alive.
pinesfortruth: (darn it all to heck)

[even if it wasn't meant like that he feels condescended to now and just. huffs. FINE!!! /12 year old]

[...He recognizes it. Goddamn you, monotone. Why do you betray him.]

I didn't mean it like that, dude. I was sincere.
pinesfortruth: (im 12 and what is this)

[personal profile] pinesfortruth 2017-06-10 08:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[dipper, who gets apologized to maybe... thrice... a year... and taken seriously half of that, just stares and blinks. 800% taken aback]

Oh. Um. It's fine.
splinten: appl-juice42 @ tumblr (BRO HAVE)

[personal profile] splinten 2017-06-10 08:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Nah, it ain't. It'd be a shitty thing to harp on you about. So like... sorry I gave off that impression.

[He is Trying at people.]
pinesfortruth: (ok ... that sounds fake but okay)

[personal profile] pinesfortruth 2017-06-10 08:11 pm (UTC)(link)
No, seriously-- even Mabel's made fun of me for that like. A gajillion times. [he gives an awkward shrug. he doesn't know how to react to sincerity]
splinten: appl-juice42 @ tumblr (as a prank)

Siblings have certain privileges. But glad you're okay with it, then.

How about this? I can't kill anyone yet since your sister hasn't helped me find my soulmate.
pinesfortruth: (but who... was phone????)

[personal profile] pinesfortruth 2017-06-10 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
No, that's worst. [@ mabel why] Anyway, I don't care, I don't need to trust you, I'm just saying Akira and Yukina have reasons to not want to tell you. Besides, Jay said he knows Yukina's role already.

Fine. Next trial I won't say anything about people who seem suspicious to me. You can solve it all by yourself.
pinesfortruth: (will I need algebra in the Real World(tm)

[personal profile] pinesfortruth 2017-06-10 07:57 pm (UTC)(link)
That has nothing to do with what I said, but fine, go ahead!
