WEEK 10 - Trial Day Two

[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.

[and after five minutes, looking for Emily.]

Emily? Do you mind if I ask you something?

[thatbites]

[Still curled up on her chair she perks up at being called out. Considering this is Grell she is not instantly on the defensive for once.]

Yeah?

[erythristic]

[does it also help that she's talking in a voice that's totally not accusatory?]

I was just curious, did you decide to start working out after you got your hairband in the gym? Since you were already there and all, why not, or did you want to stay to your schedule?

[if you already need to do your sets for the day....?]

[thatbites]

[That actually helps a ton. Emily shrugs one shoulder.]

Took a bit to find it since it feel behind the bench but, yeah, decided to do some running at least since I wasn't that hungry yet. Plus less chance of wandering in first to find the caf covered in guts since the gym was fine.

[erythristic]

[Grell nods.]

That makes perfect sense. [and covers the gap in time in her alibi that Grell wanted to check.] Just making sure the notes on everyone's alibis are up to date.

...are you alright, though?

[that slips out without her meaning to, but being a suspect again. the stress from that...]

[thatbites]

I'm fine. It'll just be like the other two times, you know. [She smiles faintly and runs a hand through her hair.] People here are smart enough to think for longer than two seconds about this shit at least.

[Plus she knows there are people here that would actually have her back if suspicion was thrown on her. It's kind of weird knowing that someone will have her 100% since she's too used to having to defend herself alone.]
