Week 6: Trial

[becomemod]

week 6:

 

trial

════════ ⋆ ★ 15 DOODZ REMAIN ★ ⋆ ════════

Rise and shine. The sirens that filled the streets on Friday have died down, allowing you to spend the morning peacefully despite the news. It isn't until 11 AM that an alarm goes off on everyone's phone, citing a reminder for the trial taking place at the courthouse at noon. It turns off soon, but pops back up every ten minutes to ensure that you don't forget.

Shortly before 12 PM, all heroes feel a compulsion to head to the courthouse, where the staff direct you to one of the courtrooms reserved for the day's events. Attendance is mandatory, it seems, and once everyone has arrived, the doors close and lock behind them.

Yesterday's investigation was only the beginning. The real work begins now.

════════ ⋆★⋆ ════════

Welcome to your week one trial! Over the next nine hours, characters will have the chance to investigate, and theorize about the murders, as well as examine the body of the victim and explore relevant locations with NPC permission. As you gather evidence and discuss, we encourage you to revisit the investigation post to refamiliarize yourselves with the events of Friday morning.

There will be a mod-tag break between 5 PM EST / 2 PM PST to 6 PM EST / 3 PM PST. While the trial may continue and players can tag each other, mod-led threads such as questions and investigations will be on hold.

To vote for a culprit, head over to the voting page! Voting is mandatory in this game, so please be sure that your vote is in by the time trial finishes at 9 PM EST / 6 PM PST.

Good luck, heroes!

[he nods]

I'm fine. We just need to figure out why there are three bodies.

[tongshi]

... Ponta was concerned about the quota, but you and Temenos both talked to him about it and he wouldn't turn around and do something like control Vane.

Someone was out of control or under the sway of that goddamn moon.

[ he doesn't want! to think! that someone would just do this for funsies! ]

[doghouse]

Is that seriously a thing? The moon being able to control us?

[stunwhistle]

I think if it could really do that, it'd have come up before now... don't you?

[doghouse]

You'd think.

[stunwhistle]

...gods, I hate it here.

[doghouse]

You said it.

[stunwhistle]

[just. groans sadly.]

[unsync]

It's been at the least, a regular thing that it could actively threaten people to kill.

And besides that, there were records that people acted strangely during the full moon.

[doghouse]

I mean, there's always records of that though, right? Like, that's a classic superstition thing.

[ rubs his face. ]

Ughhhhhh, I hate this.

[unsync]

Yeah, there are. It's in the police station.

[tongshi]

Mm... Ace showed me the note he got about it.

[floridas]

[ tiredly blows a raspberry and sinks down somewhere to sit. ]

I am so fucking sick and tired of the moon.

[tongshi]

[ sits down with, pulling her gently into his side and curling up while they all talk because. he's tired and OOCly it's break. ]

All of us are.

[floridas]

[ just takes a minute before she leans in and gives his fluffy cheek a kiss before she sinks into his arm and scritches his chest. puzzles are... not her favorite. you cannot punch them. ]
