WEEK 10 - Trial

[al2955]

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.

[sTOP? He's just pointedly ignoring that and picking at his leash because gods Roxy don't be embarrassing.]

It's not our fault there's a lot of hot blondes on the ship. Somebody should just tell her to get over it. Maybe that's why Emily's here, too. Make herself feel less bad. [Sorry Emily.]

[muties]

[ 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?

[chiseler]

[YOU'RE NOT HIS MOM! Embarrass your own son, sheesh...but why is he thinking of this seriously. Why this?]

...you might actually be right. There's nobody else left. Whose fault is that?

[muties]

[ um maybe she is your mom, maybe you too are a long lost lalonde like adrien. let her be your mom, luke. ]

Alice's. Or her creator? Or whoever thought gee, 41 people should kill each other.

[lbr Roxy would be a better mom than his own mom. But he frowns to himself.]

They didn't even bring an even number of us to begin with. It's like they were asking for people to do double-time. How can they expect somebody to put in that much work? [Let's just not talk about the other double-murders that've happened in the last ten weeks.]

[ adopts luke ]

They were so lazy. 42 would have been a perf number, we coulda been makin' Hitchhiker jokes for 10 weeks but no. They were so lazy they didn't realize we were kinda lazy, too. Tho, I guess we don't know how long they expected this shit to go on?

[chiseler]

Go take a look at that terminal upstairs sometime, Roxy. There were a ton of points and maps I couldn't even open. For all we know their original number was a lot more than 41 in the first place. Maybe they didn't expect it to really end.
