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!

Grace may not be able to relate the few seconds of particular fervor that I saw, and I was-- [impaled?] predisposed, but I'm alright to talk about it.

[sengokus]

[ . . . . he nods.]

Okay. We can see.... I don't think what happened the first week related all that much to that murder - I don't know if Vlad-san's adventure related to his either...? [WAS THERE BREAD ON THAT CYOA????]

But if we see connections, let's talk about it later. I don't want to invade on all of your privacy too much until we have to.

[THEY WERE ALL TRAUMATIZED]

[liuli]

The only connection between Vlad's death and our adventure was the fact that he died in both.

[ if you die in the matrix.... you die in real life....... ]

[toyska]

[gee vlad how come your mom lets you have TWO deaths]

[headmt]

A really fucking terrible day for poor Vlad!

[liuli]

Burn an incense in his honor, and all that. [ press f ]

[headmt]

What's a little more of me splattered about the walls of this place, honestly.

I think it is important to know that Omi and Douman had an interesting relationship. It could relate. But that could be the only connection.

[enfangs]

Uh, "interesting"?

[headmt]

Interesting is about the best way I can describe it.

[enfangs]

So what are the, um, other ways...?

[liuli]

[ stop splattering molly ]

[headmt]

[ no ❤️ ]

[alteracion]

[ making a face at "interesting" ]

[headmt]

Well do you have a better word for it?

[alteracion]

Not in polite company.

[sengokus]

[ . . . . ]

They weren't just roommates?

[PLEASE INFORM MINEO]

[headmt]

[quietly:] Oh my gods, they were roommates . . .

[1/2]

[sengokus]

[parroting because i actually think he would know this reference]

Oh my god, they were roommates....

[sengokus]

[NO DON'T GET CAUGHT UP IN THE MEME]

Wait - and what else?!

[aubins]

[ tilts head at interesting and also molly stop ending up on walls? ]

[fluffier]

[ so there WAS romance afoot!! molly!!!! ]

[headmt]

[wheeze]

[dotcom]

Admittedly, I think if there are any connections, it had more to do with their already established relationship than just the fact they went on a shitty adventure together.

[headmt]

They technically did not go on the shitty adventure together.

But Omi did show up in the shitty adventure because of their relationship. Which is what I'm saying.

[dotcom]

No, I agree, I just mean that the specific details of what happened on it probably aren't relevant to this case. It's probably better to just focus on what their general relationship was.
