WEEK 1 - Trial
| 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. |

that being said, she'll be relaxing with some video games and some good ol' instant ramen. she had considered something a little more substantial, but her stomach wasn't feeling too up to it. she's made a small pillow fort out of the ones she requested, and has taken off her uniform jacket in an attempt to be a little more comfortable.
she needs a player two! ]

He approaches the other, but keeps a respectable distance, looking at the pillow fort, raising a brow.
People seem to be mostly relaxing by playing video games. }
And which game are you playing?
no subject
Keeby Ultra Star. It's a pretty old game, but it's super fun and cute! Wanna play?
no subject
{ It looks embarrassing for someone like him to even play.
... but, in times like these it's not like the others would be paying attention to him. They were all conferring with the others -- plus it was a little cute. Which he would die before even admitting. }
I'll join. Only because there's nothing else better to do.
Since I've never played, keep in mind you'll have to show me "how".
no subject
[ she can't actually promise that. but she's going to try her darn hardest! ]
That's okay! It's pretty easy to pick up, so you'll be playing like a pro in no time.
[ and she'll hand him the second controller. are you game, arumat? ]
no subject
{ Not budging on this one!! Ugh, pls let no one else see him play a cutesy game. Yet, he's game. }
That easy? Does this require aiming at enemies and killing them?
{ Arumat, no. }
no subject
[ she has him down to play, so that's a win for her already. she'll start out on the easiest intro level, just for him. ]
Kinda! Your goal is to get through the level, but you don't have to kill stuff if you don't want to. There's stuff to collect along the way, too!
no subject
{ He'll start -- he's talented at many things. But, he's also the type that needs to play more than once to get super good at it.
So when they start, he'll probably fall into a pit first thing and glare at the thing like its at fault. }
This is irritating already. What would I even want to collect?
