WEEK 5 - Trial

[al2955]

the pygmalion. . . ONLINE CAPTAIN'S LOG: WEEK (5)

saturday TRIAL DAY ONE (32) 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.

[probings]

[and once her alibi is all up to speed?

harold's going to ask The Important Questions™ here.]

All right, so how long before we get the room searches and the strip searches done? We already know those are coming at some point, don't we?

[or she can be asked other things, but she wants to get that part out of the way.]

[parodeity]

Uh, I guess I'll help with a room search or whatever. I call not dibs on strippin' this time.

[probings]

Sounds good to me, not that I think I get much of a say this time around.

[she shrugs.] It doesn't matter who does what with my room, but I've got a ladies-only policy with stripping down to the skivvies! [at least dave would have been spared that either way, probably.]

[parodeity]

Luckily there's a ton of ladies who like to strip people.

[ what is this ship. ]

[isodope]

I've been waiting for this moment.

[Finally...it's his time to shine.]

[probings]

Aww... what a shame that I'm not allowed to do the searching this time around. It could have been F-U-N!

[isodope]

Yeah, maybe some other day you nut.

[breakshot]

... Best we take care of them sooner than later. Anyway, I'll help too.

[probings]

Try not to yell too much while you're working, kay? ♪

[breakshot]

Would you stop. ... Ugh. Anyway, I guess I'll take care of your room. That won't be a problem, I hope?

[antietam]

Yeah, looking through rooms is usually pretty useful. [ Why are they still strip searching tho. ] I can help.

[probings]

The quicker we can find any signs, the better. I guess you guys can sort out who goes where among yourselves!

[being a suspect and all, she gives up her right to choose, and that's okay with her.]

[laptopper]

Sure, I'll help with the strip searching.

[probings]

Does that mean you'll give me a hand, Fumi-Fumi? [best science friends...]

[laptopper]

Sure. The sooner we get through this farce of an investigation, the better.

[brooches]

I'd like to see Hancock's room, if possible.

[ :( Buddy... ]

[chiseler]

Can't believe this has become a standard...I can help with room searches. [Anything to get out for a bit.]

[thanatosincarnate]

How about we search Minako's?

{ Since they're deciding this now. }

[chiseler]

Fine by me. [He's pretty detached from this case, so he'll go wherever.] I'm ready when you are.

[tevinteriscoming]

I'm always happy to get out of the room for a stretch. I'll help with the rooms.

[parodeity]

We can take badly in need of a haircut, if you want.

[ since arumat snatched up luke, dave picks another person he doesn't mind to potentially pair with. ]

[antagonize]

[Harold, why.]

Not sure strip searches will be necessary this time [yet], but I can lend a hand with the rooms.

[bloodbiter]

I will assist with searching the rooms as well.

[qundercover]

If you want to see it, you just gotta ask.

[muties]

I'm always down to dig through people's stuff. Just. So interesting.

[ light sarcasm but yes ]
