WEEK 1 - Trial

[al2955]

the pygmalion. . . ONLINE CAPTAIN'S LOG: WEEK (1)

saturday TRIAL DAY ONE (40) 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. At 7PM, the trial will adjourn for the day. All players will be escorted by the robots into the cafeteria. From there, they're free to head into the lounge, the viewing deck, the chapel, or back to their rooms. All other areas of the ship have been locked off, and every player will be accompanied by a robot until they return to their room for the night. Any attempts to enter a locked off room or physically interfere with the trial or evidence outside of their room will cause the robot to raise a ship-wide alarm.

We haven't ruled him out either, all of you are p much equally "gee they could've done it I guess" so far. Chill, pretty lady.

Hidin' in the offices, tho? That is a lil bit weird.

[parodeity]

Isn't it more likely he was searching in there like we were the med bay...? If it was while Jessie was standin' guard, it was when everyone was pokin' around basically everywhere. Unless he was acting suspicious in some way, that's not much of an argument.

[muties]

Yeah, tho unlike us he is a suspect. But since everyone was searchin' around, that could be it. Esp if no one found anything in there.

[parodeity]

Yeah. Maybe we should like, figure out the how and shit before we worry too much about the who, though. We'll just fall apart into a shoutin' match if we start pointing fingers without anything to back up our pointing fingers.

[muties]

Oh, but Dave, that sounds like such a fun and helpful idea.

[ sass ]

We've got a working theory for the how, but it's just a theory still, so. [ vague hand gesture ]

[parodeity]

Yeah I. Might have missed the theory on the how if you heard a full one, uh.

[muties]

David Marie Strider, shame.

Actually, idk if it's. A full one, just shit tossed out? Like. We know if the key knife was the weapon, they had to get it away from Calypso. It's possible she stabbed out at the killer, whether to start shit or defend herself [ mimes stabbing outward ] and then they grabbed it, and stabbed her. [ more miming ] Then, we can probs guess they went to the med bay to congeal their own wound, making us none the wiser.

Ok maybe it's just my theory? Who even knows.

[parodeity]

Roxanne Reginald Lalonde. ...Yeah ok, that is a thing I did hear I thought you meant something like, more in depth. Also I missed us confirming the key knife was the weapon, oops.

[muties]

That's cause idk if we have, actually? Have we? It's just. Reasonable assumption, I guess.

[ also iron bull is apparently checking that or stabbing the body or something roxy doesn't know ]

[toprotecttheworld]

I guess one part of what you just said is true.

[The pretty part. Maybe she should've spoken to Roxy earlier.]
