WEEK 2 TRIAL

[probe]

POPULATION: 28

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.

Proceed to 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, Greed, Wrath, Despair and Sloth patiently wait as the TV above them displays a message.

Victims: Vlad Masters, Steven A Starphase, Luca Valentino

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

Greed is seated at the end of the table with a series of papers in their hands. Wrath is sitting sideways in a chair, leaning against Despair, feet in Greed's lap, with their phone out, taking selfies. Despair seems to be holding still to allow this. Sloth is dead asleep, head down on the table and snoring. When some of the last few people enter, they startle awake suddenly with a yelp which gets everyone's attention.

"Ahh, I'm up! Wow, it's time already?! You guys have 9 long hours to figure everything out!"

🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

Hello, and welcome to your third 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!

[it's stronger around the candles, but there's not much around here.

misa can find a tooth, as a.... treat...? well, she finds a tooth in there, anyway. as she tries to lift the carpet, she'll find it's definitely harder to lift thanks to being wet with blood.]

[fatalattraction]

[ THANKS I GUESS... as she realizes the bone in question, she whispers: ]

Oh my god that's a tooth.

[ but back to the carpet...when it proves to be stubborn, she grimaces. ]

H-hey Yuyu, you're strong, right? While I'm checking this out, can you see if there's anything else under the altar? Like, try to push it a little?

[ she'll put a little more muscle into picking it up just in case there's something other than blood to find... also hey we haven't looked at the ceiling yet either right is there anything on the ceiling. ]

[fluffier]

[ Yuel is staring at the candles and squinting. Is there any suspicious wax where it shouldn't be (i.e. far from where the candles are)? She wouldn't know how many candles are normally there, but would she notice that any are missing?

Either way, when she hears Misa suggestion she'll look back. ]

Oh yeah, I'm pretty strong.

[ So she's going to walk over to the altar and just push it to see if any bloody writing reveals itself. ]

[probe]

[none missing! the wax is all where it goes.

lifting the carpet reveals... only more blood. it soaked through. similarly, yuel will not find anything new by pushing the altar.

also the ceiling is a nice chapel ceiling. no ceiling cats here in this investigation.]

[fatalattraction]

Um...

[ she's officially out of ideas?? with those latest checks turning up nothing, she turns to yuel with a blank look, then switches her focus to despair. a sort of annoyed look comes over her face before she smooths her expression over again. ]

Despair, can you take these... um... body pieces back for us? For evidence reasons.

[fluffier]

[ She's also out of ideas, but she's going to do a quick look around the perimeter to see if there's anything out of the ordinary, before looking at Misa. ]

We're really takin' something back? [ eww ] But... I can't see anythin' else outta the ordinary. It definitely looks like someone died here, which means that a body's shown up back in the conference room. We should head back to let 'em know where it was.

[probe]

[they don't find anything new! despair just has their arms folded, but when misa asks, they exhale a sigh. they lift one hand, still fabric-wrapped, and wave lazily; several of those bits just disappear in little black puffs. what, did you think they were going to touch it? the bits will be waiting for them in the conference room.]

If you are quite finished, then I will escort you back.

[fatalattraction]

Seems kinda Sloth-y, not Despair-y...

[ but before her mouth can get her in trouble again, she just shakes her head and looks to yuel... she gives the room one more glance, then holds out her hand. lesgo? ]
