WEEK 1 - TRIAL DAY TWO

[al2955]

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

saturday TRIAL DAY TWO (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. The trial will end at 9:00 PM, at which point all players will have been expected to cast their vote.

How would I have incapacitated someone like that? I can punch you full force, if you like, you probably wouldn't even feel it. What's more, she doesn't have any sort of marks on her body, as I recall.

[tevinteriscoming]

Please don't, I think I would probably feel it.

[Alita he was going to defend you, but you aren't helping yourself.]

Fancy that. Not a mark on her, definitively proving she can't have been knocked out by any means. That is, unless there was some sort of serum available that would heal any mark, but that would be quite a coincidence, wouldn't it?

[cherubize]

That doesn't make a lot of sense to me, either. She had light bruising on her back, so why would the killer neglect to cover those up? So little was used, so I can't imagine it was used on a wide area.

[tevinteriscoming]

The bruising on her back doesn't distract from the killer's narrative, that there was a fight in the daycare. A bruise to the head or a puncture indicating some sort of sedative would.

[hatslinger]

I dunno how many people you've stabbed, but knives leave bruises, too. Even if the serum was used on one, the bruise would probably still linger.

[tevinteriscoming]

I have not made any significant effort to stab anyone, no.

[Mage??? Anyone???]

But I'll keep it in mind.

[thatbites]

You don't have to physically knock someone out to make them fall unconscious. Intoxication, dehydration, a whole ton of different drugs. Pretty sure a nurse would know all the different causes better than me so you can fill the gaps I missed.

[Just saying, miss defensive.]

[hatslinger]

Don't think there's any kind of poison available to use, though. Not that I'd know or anything. I think the painkillers in the medical bay are too weak to knock anyone out.

[ not that she knows anything about poison!!! totally! ]

Unless she locked Coweta in her room all week, I doubt she was dehydrated. Maybe that's why no one knows who the hell she is?

[thatbites]

I really hope it's not that last one unless we want to start roll calls every morning.

[Joking aside, she crosses her arms.]

I'm not familiar with the whole clinic deal but does it seriously only have healing goop and cheap pain killers? Although considering how loud the watchdogs [read: mad scientist trio] are I guess they would notice if a packet of anesthetic was mysteriously missing. Guess that just leaves intoxication and that's pretty far fetched too.

[Ugh... Someone just figure this out already.]
