WEEK 3 TRIAL

[probe]

POPULATION: 25

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.

goood morning! come join us in the conference room when you're ready!

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: Omi Fushimi, Ashiya Douman

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

Lust is at the table and seems to be finishing a topcoat on their nails. Pride is looking down at their claws, sprawled in their chair. Envy is slumped forward on the table... but don't worry, he's not dead this time, he just has his head pillowed on his folded arms. Gluttony is sitting up straight, hands laced together and waiting.

The rest of the Avatars all look at Pride after a moment of silence, and then, vaguely annoyed, Pride says:

What? They know they have nine hours by this point. Don't look at me.

🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

Hello, and welcome to fourth 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!

Boop boop...

Aoi still has "Unholy Hunger." Aoi is saving it...

[sengokus]

[ . . . . nods.]

Okay.

So there's no chance that someone could've covered for you with this weird power? I think that's what I'm trying to figure out.

[bonetiddies]

Oliver Twist. Vira, Yuri, or Gu Yun can confirm it would not cause the effect Shi Qingxuan and Aoi were inflicted with.

[chevaleros]

It's possible. Perhaps they woke up and Omi had died already.

We could ask Law what state he found Douman in. [ unless we did and i missed it sorry there's 30 minutes left ]

[aubins]

Oliver Twist. See what Harrowhark said.

[chevaleros]

Hm... perhaps. There's no way to disprove they weren't Omi's own tears, besides perhaps where they fell on his shirt.

[messybench]

Well, yeah, but braining a guy and dragging his body around? That requires some upper body strength. Like, I doubt lesbeanie baby over there [ gestures at aoi ] could pull it off.

So yeah, I think you're probably right, OR it's someone Omi wouldn't fight -- love, or whatever -- so they staged it.

[callmemeg]

[ glancing between harrow and yuri. ]

There a reason you two are so reluctant to be upfront about it?

[nodo]

[ he'll give his head a shake. ]

None.

At least, that was not the agreement we reached. I don't suspect any of them of going to these great lengths for distraction either.

[toyska]

[A nod in her direction.]

I still have mine as well. [Which he confirmed last week]

[sistocracy]

Same one.

[sengokus]

... got it. Thanks.

So I really do think that it's someone trying to cover up Omi-san's....

[femmefinale]

As I said last week, I did not receive one.

[shiftingwinds]

[beams at her!


and just cuddles for now.]

[alteracion]

I don't think she's smart enough either.

[ aoi didn't even do anything to deserve being called stupid but grace nods to say eleanor has a point ]

I don't think he'd lie down without a fight. I mean, he had pretty bad taste, but he wanted his wish the same as the rest of us.

[messybench]

Good, good. I wouldn't wanna repeat of last week [ rip fukuda ] when I'm just trying to snoop around for poison peddlers.

[aubins]

It's not relevant. There are people who can confirm that. That's all there really is to say.

[chevaleros]

Yes, and this is the one I received as well.

[mukagen]

Since I was with Rosie, I also didn't receive one.

[ for ooc reasons please don't waste time attaccing ]

[shiftingwinds]

[from where she's cuddling with aoi]

Mine's the same!

[nodo]

Certainly looks like it.

[bonetiddies]

Because we might be murdered and need it. As long as enough people know what it does for this sort of situation, I'd rather keep it to myself.

[sengokus]

[he nods...]

Even if it's just - killing him in the kitchen and then dragging him to the observation room, that's heavy. Especially for someone Omi-san's size when his weight's completely on you...

[bonetiddies]

Can you remind me what it does again, specifically?

[nodo]

Do I have to? I've already said no.

[ and he confessed to killing douman??? ]
