WEEK 10 - Trial

the pygmalion. . .

ONLINE




CAPTAIN'S LOG:
WEEK (10)

saturday TRIAL DAY ONE

(16) 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.

You haven't got more than one hair band?

[personal profile] muties 2016-08-13 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, we didn't used to be able to go up to the top level, right? So I couldn't phase up through the ceiling. I mean, I didn't try, but I probs couldn't. And I'm sure Alice has her secrets. Big ship, after all.

You can't control the cheese economy?

[ yes he can ]
monsieurchatastrophe: (just feel that summer breeze)

[personal profile] monsieurchatastrophe 2016-08-13 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks for the reminder.

[dorian do they not beat themselves up over this enough. why you gotta]
chiseler: (it was really only you)

[personal profile] chiseler 2016-08-13 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know how fast we're going either, but I guess that makes some sense. So the time of her death and being thrown out must've been pretty short. [Elizabeth...he's not touching her head but he's getting a closer look.] The room closest to the airlock is the rec room. You've been down there. Anything heavy that could have been used to knock her out?

[...ugh fine what if he tentatively tries to move her hair a little to see if he can get a better look? Ughughugh.]

I don't think you would or that you'd risk blowing up the entire ship to do so. That's why I think we have to be looking out for the aliens.

[ if she isn't embarrassing who will be luke, WHO WILL BE ]

Right? We didn't pick our genetics. Also... do we have any other blondes beyond us four. Maybe she couldn't find a fifth?
bloodteller: (madman screams)

[personal profile] bloodteller 2016-08-13 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
In the right context, yes. I'd agree with that.

[ honestly yes? this is the worst? sorry to anyone who expected a legit trial ]
monsieurchatastrophe: (look at it all so big)

[personal profile] monsieurchatastrophe 2016-08-13 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
I definitely can and do.
tevinteriscoming: (conflicted. 1)

[personal profile] tevinteriscoming 2016-08-13 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Can you explain how it actually works, in practice? If you go back five seconds, do you replace yourself in the past? And is it only backwards, or can you go forwards, or simply disrupt time?
muties: (roxy080_askthestargazers)

[personal profile] muties 2016-08-13 09:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Seriously? But that's like, hella interesting.

[ SCIIIIEnCE THO ]

... I was tryin' to help you, lil' cat. Tho, fair, I guess.

[ holy shit??????? dave chokes on air because he is not actually a huge pda person normally like he lets roxy hang off of him and yuno hang off of him and adrien drag him around by the wrist but

FRENCH KISSING IN PUBLIC IS A BIT MUCH FOR HIM ]


I - uh -

[ is kissing her cheek enough will she calm down with that save him ]
tevinteriscoming: (curious. 1)

[personal profile] tevinteriscoming 2016-08-13 09:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[What? Did he say wrong? It's banter. You can't be hurt over banter.]

You and Dave were together the entire time the lights were out, yes?
parodeity: (WHOA 🎧 hold up)

[personal profile] parodeity 2016-08-13 09:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Rude. But ok we're talking furniture trades later tonight?
parodeity: luzerna @ tumblr (SHADES 🎧 raised)

[personal profile] parodeity 2016-08-13 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Ok, no to all three of those. Well. Half a no to the last one.

[ dave crosses his arms, sighing. ]

I function on time loops - so, if I didn't already do it, I can't do it. Like, it's not a "disruption" because it's always going to have already happened, so that term is just, like, incorrect. I can't do anything other than backwards here, though it's more flexible back home. And I don't replace myself, because the me in the past has to become the me in the future who goes back to the past for five seconds still, or the time loop wouldn't exist, you know?

[ ...............................

i'm not sure if the answer to "can you explain how it actually works" is yes or no because how much of that dorian understood is up in the air ]
monsieurchatastrophe: (and so I'll read a book)

[personal profile] monsieurchatastrophe 2016-08-13 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[PEOPLE ARE DEAD, DORIAN]

Yeah. The door locked so we couldn't get out, but I didn't want to leave him alone anyway. Besides, I can see in the dark as Chat, so...

[he is the best potential bodyguard when the power goes out, clearly??]
monsieurchatastrophe: (and I'll keep wondering and wondering)

[personal profile] monsieurchatastrophe 2016-08-13 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
...Fine, but nothing for cheese. He gets enough as it is.
parodeity: sleiin @ tumblr (CHAT 🎧 yeah w/e)

[personal profile] parodeity 2016-08-13 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I can't believe you're tellin' people not to spoil him when you have like, an entire room of cheese.
monsieurchatastrophe: (and so I'll read a book)

[personal profile] monsieurchatastrophe 2016-08-13 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
I like science, but I'm better at physics than biology. And I'm not doing tests on myself to see if we can clone cats out of me. I'm too young to be a father.
monsieurchatastrophe: (I'm completely free)

[personal profile] monsieurchatastrophe 2016-08-13 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[...he's caught]

It's the only way to get him to do anything.

[plagg cackles in the background]
chiseler: (life's a gas and it's running out)

[personal profile] chiseler 2016-08-13 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[WHAT A PURE CAT nobody tell him anything.]

Nah, you're right. Parrish and I talked, figured it was probably not a good idea to keep running out when I'm not valued especially on murder day. Or trial days. [Considering last trial he tried to explode, so.] I'm not sure how effective it'll be.
antietam: (pic#10518547)

[personal profile] antietam 2016-08-13 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Hearing that makes him happy enough to grin at Luke. There's still a tinge of sadness to it because this trial sucks, but it's nice to have someone count him.

Time to get to work. ]
bloodteller: (now it's five by five)

[personal profile] bloodteller 2016-08-13 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[ no... what the fuck that's adorable ]

Really...

[ he's so cute!! oh my god! dave's the cutest person in this room, yuno can't stop beaming!! ] Whatever you need of me, I'm here, honeybun.

[ and she's totally returning the cheek kiss, too bad so sad ]
parodeity: (HEH 🎧 sure thing)

[personal profile] parodeity 2016-08-13 09:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Lbr, you just like spoiling him. Also: don't let mom clone him, she cloned like 250 plus cats according to what she's told me.

[ do we want 250 plaggs ]
