WEEK 4 TRIAL

[probe]

POPULATION: 23

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.

trial. noon.

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

Victim: Eleanor Shellstrop

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

Wrath is sitting on the table, organizing notes and gently sliding them to Greed. Sloth is here with what looks like a dog-shaped neck pillow sticking out of the edges of their hood. The spiraled horn on the top of their head is longer and sharper. Greed is leaning against the table in an attempt to be present, hands tentatively reaching forward to take the papers from Wrath. Despair has taken their usual seat, just vibing here as they quietly observe. Oddly, Sloth, Greed and Wrath are not in their cloaks today. Instead, they are in sweatpants (shorts in Wrath's case) and cozy hoodies in their color with their symbol printed on the front. The hoods are pulled over their heads however. Once everyone has settled, Sloth chimes in.

Everyone has nine hours again! You can do it! Last time, you even did it a little early! Wow!

🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

Hello, and welcome to your fifth 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!

HAND CHECK

[sengokus]

Hey! Let me borrow your hands to compare against the size of the hole in the wall in the house. I'll check against Eleanor-san's body too.

[YOU KNOW THE DRILL - ALSO PLEASE comment with the state of handsies, fingers, nails. If there's any marks, if there's any signs of scrubbing or intense cleaning. Mineo will be looking at everyone's hands pretty thoroughly throughout the check.]

[fisherwoman]

[hands! there's nothing strange about them, or her fingers or nails.]

[alteracion]

[ grace has clean hands with nothing of note on them except a magic green number

her nails are pretty i got nothing ]

[dotcom]

[ have a hand

but there's no markings or anything! no signs of scrubbing, his nails and fingies are neat. ]

[callmemeg]

[ hands

they are clean, but not intensely so! no marks, nothing under her nails. ]

[toesies]

[Offering her hands! They are nice and clean. No marks on her skin or nails.]

[gamerbrain]

Maybe it was her elbow.

[ but anyway here are aoi's hands. there are some cuts and burns at random, in a variety of old, fading, and new. other than that, very normal. not weirdly clean, but like. regular clean. ]

[sengokus]

Yeah, that had a bruise too, right? So I'll check.

[but based on stripcheck no one else has a weird bruise on their elbow but if there's no matches at all he'll go back on the combatants specifically]

These all from cooking, Aoi-chan?

[shiftingwinds]

[offers her hand!

her hands look as clean as you'd expect from someone with good personal hygiene. her knuckles aren't bruised or anything, and there aren't any cuts on her hands or fingers.]

[fatalattraction]

[ as mentioned in strip, she has the naughty medbay red tattoo ink on her hands! she did not bother trying to scrub it off.

otherwise, nothing else! ]

[toyska]

[easily cooperates for this one like an asshole

But have hand! They are a normal level of clean, nothing under his nails. Probably some light bruising on his knuckles that seems to match the injuries from his sparring, but otherwise nothing of note.]

[aubins]

[ hand. it's clean, no signs of scrubbing or any weird smells. just normal guy hands that are maintained and clean.


also his nails are black with little accented lines of purple. please perceive them. ]

[touchups]

[Handsies! No marks or cuts etc except the usual light bruising at his knuckles consistent with sparring. Nothing's up with his nails, no signs of intense scrubbing; they're the usual level of clean for him.]

[headmt]

[handsies! his hands are as normal - the snake tattoo and red eye on one, some old scars, but clean and not overly scrubbed or anything. the claw-nails are not hiding bits of human skin.]

[liuli]

I've already compared mine to the hole, so if you'd like a more physical reference over a photo, I'm happy to comply. I do think it may have been her elbow, but it's good to be thorough.

[ here are his hands! gu yun's are perfectly normal levels of clean - nothing odd under his nails, either. he's got scars on his hands but those have always been there, and his pride tattoo. that's it! ]

[enfangs]

[takes off his gloves to present hands

they look normal! maybe mildly bruised, but.]

[bonetiddies]

[Hands! They're neat and normal. Her nails are slightly chewed, but clean.]

[femmefinale]

[ She extends her hands. No marks, no signs of cleaning, nails painted a soft red-orange but still neatly cut. Fingers are normal. ]

[mukagen]

[ Haaaandsss! They're clean since nice week. No sparring bruises for him, either. ]

[fergalicious]

[ Medb will take off her gloves to show her hand.

They're clean. Pretty and neat. No marks or signs of excessive washing or anything. ]

[chevaleros]

[ hands here! her nails are tidy and there's no marks or injuries on her hands. ]

[maelstroms]

[ slides in for these checks now, but Ming Yi's hands are calloused and one is tattooed for Despair - otherwise, nothing interesting to report. Nails short, fingies clean, nothing scrubbed.

His elbows are fine, too, for the record. ]

[sistocracy]

[hands!]

[assuming this is before investigation, they're clean and undamaged! her nails are a little long, but neatly manicured. as always, there's a Lust tattoo on one hand and a ring on her right index finger.]

UPDATE

[sengokus]

—so the hole was probably caused by Eleanor-san's elbow.

[neato]

And I checked everyone else's hands for the same thing as last week - the ink and all - and only Amane-san's turned up with anything super weird. [the actual ink] There's a few combat bruises around on Childe-san, Mahito-san, and White but I'm just mentioning those for thoroughness.

[gamerbrain]

Aoi was right...!
