( TRIAL - WEEK 5 )



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, children. As the Dining Hall is still under reparations — today's trial will take place by the pool. 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 Outdoor Dining Area 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. Due the Kitchen and Dining Hall getting wrecked, lunch and dinner will mostly consist of grilled and barbecued menu items. Hamburgers, hotdogs, salads, and items that require little preparation — all the residents have to do is ask in order to receive. Similarly, all beverages will be retrieved from a hundred quart cooler that has been placed by the side of the pool.

Not as fancy as usual, but at least the pool is clean now. Some inflatable pool toys lazily swim in the water, along with pool noodles. A single towel that still has sludge on it floats among the accessories in the pool. Looks like no one bothered to really clean it up from Friday. Every now and then, the waters will vibrate to the sound of buzz saws and assorted power tools. Looks like the Disposal Room, Dining Hall and Kitchen are under reparations still.

A tent has been placed over the area to shield the residents from the sun, and to make up from the lack of transparencies everyone will receive a small booklet containing each resident's profile. They look a little bit like shitty PowerPoint presentation handouts, but maybe it's part of the charm. The profiles of the deceased are included, as always.

A second tent has been set up in the parking lot, complete with an air conditioning on the inside. Its use will become rapidly apparent once the victims corpses have 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 their table; a trash bin is available outside of the tent for this purpose.

Evidence found during the investigation, on the other hand, will be displayed in a table by the pool shed. Any items found by the residents on Friday will be displayed here for further examination.

Finally — one of the grandfather clocks has been kidnapped from its respective floor to show the current hour. Please do remember you have until 9:00 PM to figure out whodunit and cast your vote. And if anyone tries to leave the area before the trial is over? They'll discover an invisible wall blocking their path.

( 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 Pool/Outdoor Dining Area (the pool shed will also be locked), 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.

[mmmm, this is a landmine he's walking on, he knows, but. . .]

Emily and Tsurugi's deaths are awfully close together.

I think that it was mostly quick for him. And since it was a Monday, it wasn't because of someone else.

[ a beat. ]

It was cleaner than everyone else's.

[Jake watches him roll the candy.]

I understand. You're not making excuses. I don't think you want to martyr yourself, either. Actually, you just sound really sad right now. [He pauses.] Oh, but, you know, even though I'm mad at you, I still want you to be my friend and have that birthday. Since we'll probably be going our separate ways and all... at least when we celebrate birthdays, we'd be close. But um, I understand too if you don't want it anymore.

[She nods, taking the letter back and tucking it safely into her obi.]

That seems to be the case. Let me know if you need it back, for any reason.

[That makes him curious.] Why is that? Is there something special about you if they knew?

But they're still arguing now....

[What a bunch of dum dums]

If they really can't pick they should just rock paper scissors for it.

... I think I'm a God. Or maybe a demon. I was never sure, even when I was her.

[ she still isn't, and she's not sure if she'll ever be. ]

I was born because of a lady's sick beliefs and I've been trying to get away ever since. Trying to escape my mind. And the city I was born in. But it always seemed to find its way back to me. Or maybe I found it? I dunno. I'm just so tired now.

[ her eyes are starting to get searing red, and there's a few tears streaming down her cheek now. ]

Thank you.

[He swallows and nods. It's a kind thing to say. But his shoulders are drawn in.

Of everyone here, he knows that the one person he can't save is Dave. Not anymore. He's destroyed Dave for good.]

What a brilliant idea. Hey, did you hear that, Kaito, Yukina, Jay?

[ hajime KNOWS WHERE THIS IS GOING. are you sure you're ready for that. ]

She suffocated, like the room had no oxygen. Tsurugi-kun sounded excited about it all. Probably he's just a perv.

I don't know if I can be happy anymore. A few times here, I honestly thought maybe I was. Maybe it was possible. But I don't think it was really happiness. I think it was just.. a break from the sadness. From the torture. [ her voice cracks a bit. ] It'd just be bad news, 'cause I always attract a storm.

It's not your fault, Hajime. Very few people wish to die. I'm sure you heard that enough on your phone.

[Now with DUAL SLAPPING ACTION.]
