WEEK 3 TRIAL





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!

[ . . . he offers up a smile after a moment, a little forced but.]

No, I get it. You're right. I just don't...

[ . . . ]

We'll talk about it if something comes up. Powers just throw us all for a loop in general, so. I'd rather eliminate unknowns, but you're right - this one could be dangerous.
bonetiddies: (you'll shake and shudder)

There may be other, better ways to test it than trying it on someone. That's all I'm saying.
sengokus: (β™Ÿ so don't give up)

[personal profile] sengokus 2021-03-06 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[he nods.]

Yeah... I know.

[and takeru looks mad, and mineo doesn't want personal drama to derail them too bad]

I don't wanna distract us too much - I get the point so... let's move on, yeah? Two unaccounted for powers if they were used at all - and if they weren't used, that's weird, right? Because they're right there....
bonetiddies: (πŸ’€to explain in due time)

[personal profile] bonetiddies 2021-03-06 07:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Agreed. Let's discuss this later.

[Both. The blood boiling and the fact that she clearly said something crueler than she intended to.]

[clapping him on the back?]

We'll get to the bottom of it. If we need to test it we can circle back around to it.

Does seem strange neither of them would use any powers they had available in a life or death situation.
sengokus: (β™Ÿ i'm not giving up no not yet;)

[he'll take the clap on the back! he's tense, but he does seem to be focusing a bit more as they continue to talk]

Whether to disorient their killer, or to at least give us some way to notice odd behavior in the days after, right?

[He'll just hang out here arm over Mineo's shoulder then, casual as you please.]

Right. Or if they chose not to use them, then maybe it suggests some restraint against the attacker. For some reason.

Still wondering if Lust meant... you know...
headmt: [ midnightartist ] (13.)

[personal profile] headmt 2021-03-06 07:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Does lend itself neatly to that, doesn't it.

On the other hand, if you're already brutalizing someone with a telescope or whatever, why stop at that?
