WEEK 9 - Trial Day Two

[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.

A lot of people can work up the guts to kill if they're desperate enough. Isn't that what we've been saying about Minako, if she really did try to kill someone? Kinda hard to narrow it down that way, I can see either of them doing it.

[but also he doesn't trust Pures so you know...there's that]

[chiseler]

[Mm...he shakes his head.]

There's one more thing about that though. Marinette would have cracked to Adrien, I think. Those two don't know how to keep secrets anymore.

[douchemag]

[Raising an eyebrow.] You really think so? If she did, he'd probably be right on that suspect list with her - she'd be risking his life and forcing him to try to let someone innocent die for her sake. Doesn't sound like a noble thing to do, does it?

And that's assuming Marinette would have remembered killing anyone at all.

[chiseler]

The same could be said for Adelina and that's why she was alone all night. I don't think she would let someone else die for her, but I also don't know just how desperate she'd be or if she'd remember. [Clover's in the same boat, but we're not talking about Clover.]

Compare the two girls. What's the first thing you think of when you think of differences?

[douchemag]

[Giving him a blank stare why are you asking him this he doesn't even know Marinette's Ladybug]

Uh..Adelina's taller, not as disgustingly gross about her boyfriend, and knows how to use a sword? How about you?

[chiseler]

Close to being the same height as Machias, has fought plenty of monsters, has things at stake with this motive. Marinette just has a choice and also regretting not telling Adrien she was in love with him back home or something. [And the choice to become Ladybug but nah Judar can stay in the dark.]

Of the two, it should be obvious...but I don't like that it is because it's not enough.

[parodeity]

Addie killed a fuckin' dragon, Marinette would probs be bros with it first?

[chiseler]

That's exactly the difference, yeah. Do we really think Marinette could be a killer?

[parodeity]

Literally the only way she'd ever kill anyone is if she were, you know, hella possessed. Everyone else on the list could probs shank a dude sans being possessed. Since.

[ everyone else on the list lacks chill or is addie who would probably be capable of murder?

dave hates this week he doesn't really dislike anyone on this dumb list ugh ]

[chiseler]

I know...trust me, I know. [He's busy scrubbing a hand over his face.] Choose wisely, Strider. We can't stall anymore.

[parodeity]

[ I MEAN, IT SOUNDS LIKE WE HAVE A CONFESSION, DAMNIT ]

...I'll probs leave my vote as is. But. Yeah. Fuck.

[chiseler]

[Yep. He heard it too and this fucking sucks.]

I'm done. I'm done with this game. Let's...see what she has to say.

[parodeity]

Yeah. Fuckin' same.

[ the only week someone genuinely didn't mean to do it was like. elizabeth.

and uh allen and them with the giant oops. every other week it's just seeing people kill one another, regardless of the bonds they've formed. ]

...Hate this.
