WEEK 9 - Trial

[al2955]

the pygmalion. . . ONLINE CAPTAIN'S LOG: WEEK (9)

saturday TRIAL DAY ONE (19) survivors At 9 AM, a klaxon alarm begins blaring in every area of the ship. The alarm will continue to go off until everyone has gathered in the conference room. Should anyone be running late or avoiding the trial for whatever reason, a robot guide will appear wherever they are and gently but firmly escort them into the room. Once all the living players are present, the conference room doors will lock shut; anyone who wishes to leave for whatever reason will need to ask AL-2955 or one of the robots. Anyone leaving for non-investigative purposes, such as bathroom breaks, will be accompanied by a robot escort. The large round table in the center of the conference room has been set up to help the trial run as smoothly as possible. Three holographic screens hover above the center hollow of the table, visible from every angle. The first screen displays the pictures and profiles of the suspects and victim; the second displays the autopsy report; the third displays a blank word processor. Each of the chairs comes equipped with a virtual keyboard which can be used to type information directly into the third screen, such as theories and updated information; they can also be set into privacy mode, which will transfer whatever notes someone writes directly into their datapad instead of on screen. There's also a tablet function for those who wish to draw charts or pictures on screen. The keyboards will detect the DNA of whoever's using them and record who's typed what - simply press an area of text and the name of whoever wrote it will pop up. The area to the right of the table has been temporarily sectioned off with a glass partition and sliding door for hygienic issues. Inside, the victim's body has been laid out on a metal autopsy table, covered by a plastic sheet. Above it is a holographic screen that displays a close-up color photograph of the body when it was found. A hand sanitizer dispenser has been considerately attached to the wall nearby for anyone getting up close and personal to the body. To the left of the conference table is a display case. Any evidence found during the investigation will be carefully collected by the robots at some point the previous day and placed here before the trial starts. Beneath each piece of evidence is a small tablet where players can type up information, such as a short description or where it was found. There are also empty areas left over for any evidence that may be found during the trial. The shelf at the very bottom of the case has been reserved for an extra rulebook in case anyone needs it. Food will be served throughout the day by the robots, who will take individual orders whenever you're feeling hungry. The trial will end at 9:00 PM, at which point all players will have been expected to cast their vote.

[ not a tear in any of her clothes! just a lot of unfortunate fashion choices. sorry, both of you ]

[erythristic]

It's not enjoyable! I should fill that bucket and dump it on your head, and then you'd understand. Now we're going to have to stop at my room before we go back...

[she's not going back with wet clothes and spoiled mascara.]

There's nothing more in the closet, is there?

[at least she'll put the flowers back...while still pressing a towel to her hair.]

[douchemag]

I got chunks of Machias and Jason's ass dropped on my head yesterday, you really think I care about a bucket of water at this point? [Waving a hand at her flippantly.] This should be a sign that you need to get waterproof make-up anyway.

[let Judar do your eyeshadow and mascara Grell...or at least lend you his waterproof kohl]

Nah, nothing bloody or torn in here. Told you she didn't do it.

[erythristic]

Of course she didn't.

[putting the towel back in the bathroom, she hopes Yuno will have an explanation for that unnecessary trap.]

But what do you mean, waterproof? Aren't cosmetics supposed to come off with water?

[i'm Victorian and what is this]

[douchemag]

Only if you're actually trying to get it off, but--

[And then his brain catches up with what his mouth is saying and he just stops dead in his tracks, staring at her in horror.]

Wait, you don't know what waterproof make-up is? How - what do you do when it rains, just let it run? Do you never go to the beach or anything? Does everyone where you come from just avoid water, what the shit--

[NO??? Listen, he's a water/ice mage and his bff uses water magic, this is the most horrifying thing he's ever heard in his life. Screw investigating, he's immediately heading out of Yuno's room, dragging Grell by the arm if he has to.]

Okay, we're dropping by my room first. This is way more important than the trial.

[erythristic]

[whatever you say, Judar! she doesn't need to be dragged, she'll follow him happily and they can just say they did a good investigation in Yuno's room because she is clearly the most innocent. plus, Grell's way more curious about how magical this must be to send Judar into such a determined state.

come back to the trial with changed clothes and a new makeup look, why not.]
