WEEK 1 TRIAL





POPULATION: 33



Rise and shine, little sinners. Did you rest well? Hope you weren't too perturbed by the events of the day before. Things seem to be perfectly normal throughout your morning, but at 12pm, everyone will receive a mass text message to their phone.

good evening, good morning and hello! please come join us in the conference room!


Whether you agree or disagree, soon you will find yourself physically moving toward the conference room on the bottom floor, filing into the room and taking a seat in one of the vacant chairs. Two metal boxes sit at the end of each table along with a collection of pens and colored notecards. At the head of the room, Lust, Pride, Envy and Gluttony patiently wait as the TV above them displays a message.

Victims: Kaz Kaan, Grell Sutcliff


Once the last participant enters the room, the door will swing closed behind them and lock them inside.

For a moment, everything looks completely normal, until you notice Envy slumped face-down on the table, bleeding out from a stab wound in the front. Lust is busy putting a pink fluffy towel under their head, Pride is sitting slouched in a chair twirling a knife, and in that moment Gluttony claps their hands together to get everyone's attention.

"If you would please get started. You all have nine fleeting hours to find out what happened, and place your votes."

🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟


Hello, and welcome to your second trial! Over the course of the next nine hours, characters will have the opportunity to discuss, investigate and theorize about the events of the day before! While mini-investigations were held yesterday, today is the day characters will have time to examine the body of the victim and explore relevant locations.

There will be a mod-tag break between 4pm EST/1pm PST to 5pm EST/2pm PST. While the trial may continue and players can tag each other, mod-led threads such as questions and investigations will be on hold.

Finally, while voting is not mandatory, we do have a voting page should characters wish to vote! Please be sure that your vote is in by the time trial finishes (9pm EST/6pm PST) if you wish to vote.

Good luck, and have fun!

Oh, yeah... Gu Yun mentioned something similar yesterday. Did the smoke smell like anything?
holeful: (I'm gonna... What? Wait; what?)

[He thinks for a long moment.]

... I think it just smelled like smoke.
toesies: (033)

Hm... Well, I guess we'll find out more later.

[A beat.]

You okay?
holeful: (worse versions of this every year)

[personal profile] holeful 2021-02-20 05:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Envy isn't.

[Whether he's ok or not, this is the issue he has.]
toesies: (135)

[personal profile] toesies 2021-02-20 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh... Yeah... Well, Lust and Gluttony seem to think they might be! Later. Just not now.
holeful: (It has a lot of power to it.)

[personal profile] holeful 2021-02-20 05:38 pm (UTC)(link)
But it isn't fair they had to suffer and nothing is going to be done about it. They don't deserve that.
toesies: (139)

[personal profile] toesies 2021-02-20 05:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Completely understandable. But I feel like Envy will be totally disappointed in us if we mess up because we were too busy grieving their temporary death...?
holeful: (College was like a 4 year gameshow)

[personal profile] holeful 2021-02-20 05:49 pm (UTC)(link)
... I suppose you're right. I'm just a bit angry that Pride isn't being punished.

[He does not look or sound angry.]

[she

looks at where pride is getting owned by lust and gluttony.]


I wouldn't quite say that...
holeful: (And I want to put it on film.)

[personal profile] holeful 2021-02-20 05:53 pm (UTC)(link)
It's not enough.

[Suddenly very serious?]
toesies: (053)

[personal profile] toesies 2021-02-20 05:55 pm (UTC)(link)
What are you suggesting?
holeful: (Now I get to say "my wife")

[personal profile] holeful 2021-02-20 05:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Hahaha.
[Just... not answering?]

Well, I suppose you're right we should focus on the matter at hand.
toesies: (034)

[personal profile] toesies 2021-02-20 06:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Not an unsettling deflection at all...
holeful: (of a locomotive powered by confetti)

[personal profile] holeful 2021-02-20 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, good.

[JUST TAKES IT AT FACE VALUE.]
toesies: (139)

[personal profile] toesies 2021-02-20 06:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[SLOWLY NODS

WITH THIS FACE]
holeful: (I quit drinking because I used to drink)

[personal profile] holeful 2021-02-20 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
But thank you though, miss Sheila. It's hard to stay upset when you're here.

[Your mom vibes.]
toesies: (074)

[personal profile] toesies 2021-02-20 06:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Aw... You're welcome! That's so sweet.

[priorities.]
