WEEK 7 - Trial

[al2955]

the pygmalion. . . ONLINE CAPTAIN'S LOG: WEEK (7)

saturday TRIAL DAY ONE (24) 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.

[ oh my god judar you could give the paper to dave!!!! but anyway he flips through the papers i guess? ]

Makes sense. I don't see what good callin' anyone would do, tbh. It's not like they're going to let us talk to anyone who can mount a rescue.

[douchemag]

[The bottom bunk's completely untouched aside from a couple of his bangles that he's tossed onto there because the closet was all the way on the other side of the room. Also peach pits, because again, the trash can is all the way over there. The top bunk's much messier, because hahaha what is making your bed, sounds lame??? Thankfully, there's nothing actually in the sheets or mattress...but there's uh. Definitely some of Dave's finest works taped up on the wall next to the bed.

The papers consist of surprisingly detailed diagrams and complex equations. They start off in a foreign language Dave won't be able to recognize, but around the third page switch to English - it looks like he was working on some sort of long range teleportation spell. There's explanations of how he's attempting to adjust or refine it that get cluttered with more and more curse words the further it gets.]

[bloodteller]

[ well. there's probably peach pits flying everywhere as yuno shakes the sheets to make sure that he's not hiding some kind of clue. she'd pick them up but she definitely draws the line at picking up stuff that was in judar's mouth WHO KNOWS IF HE BRUSHES HIS TEETH?

dave's art is definitely noted, though. hard to miss such distinctive work. good taste, judar ]

I was thinking that, also. It's probably just tempting us, trying to get us to kill each other more... Anyway, Judar wouldn't go for it. So it's definitely not him.

[ just sayan ]

His bed isn't clean, but there's no clues! How goes the desk?

[ also, once she's done with the bed, yuno goes to inspect the weird props. SHE HAS NO IDEA WHAT IS BEING PLANNED HERE, what the fuck is going on. ]

[parodeity]

It's def not him or mom. Or Adrien.

[ OR EMILY dave stop being biased to the suspect list? but uh since he already said to roxy's alibi he'd stab people who voted for her his bias has been evident since minutes one...

dave's eyebrows raise. ]

Huh. I think he's been tryin' to figure out some sort of spell to get out of here, with apparently zero luck.

[ he pencils in some swear word suggestions. and then will go to check out the bathroom! ]

[douchemag]

[The bathroom's also messy as hell. There's kohl and eyeliner and eyeshadow just lying around scattered on the counters, as well as some sparkly pink accessories he's apparently stolen from Clover. There's also a few broken combs in the trash, because uh have you seen his hair.

The weird props are just. Shitty fish. Shitty crabs. Shitty seagulls. In the middle is the lyrics to a rap/vocal duet of Kiss the Girl which he has actually made an attempt at memorizing because he is just that dedicated.]

[bloodteller]

[ yuno holds up a shitty fish prop. this is terrible. ]

Dave? He has fish props and lyrics here.

[ the beat of these lyrics are so strange... ] I think Judar watched another Disney movie...? The one with the mermaid.

[ what is the purpose of this. either way, it looks harmless, mostly. she's all for judar having fun, so she'll just, uh. she's taking the shitty fish prop with her to inspect some of these drawers. ]

[parodeity]

Oh yeah we were gonna do that this week but then like. Whatever the fuck happened the day before yesterday happened?

[ dave "that" doesn't clarify anything... ]

The bathroom's a complete mess you don't wanna come in here.

[ but dave will do his due diligence and sort through all this crap to see if there's anything he should care about (he doubts it). he debates putting on one of the sparkly pink accessories but decides not to. ]

[douchemag]

[Yeah, there's nothing else except Judar's shame in the bathroom.

Are we talking desk drawers or clothing drawers, because in the desk drawers is a whole stack of shitty art just for Dave. Enjoy your 'princess riding a giant dick' pictures, Yuno!!

In the clothing drawers though, it's all...the same outfit...jesus christ this is sad. Some might be different shades of black or different material, but it's all shit. Except for a couple of elaborately layered and gorgeously decorated Chinese robes that look pretty similar to what his phone people were wearing and have been stuffed all the way in the back. Why isn't he wearing this instead ugh.]

[bloodteller]

[ okay, we're gonna move away from the whole ALIEN HORRIFYINGLY MURDERING HAROLD thing and focus on "that" ]

I believe you on the bathroom, but what were you planning to do with Judar? Were you guys going to draw some more? [ because that was cute, the people she likes having fun is good

as for the drawers, well... yuno quickly searches the desk drawers before running off to the clothing drawers because dicks are something that alarm her more than like, people she dislikes. dicks, man

but the pretty clothing is noted, and it's something else to tease judar about... ]

His drawers are clean, too. Well, there's some gross things in it, but no clues that I can see. [ ... she moves the chair to make sure there's nothing under it, though, and then gets down to look under the desk. gotta clear judar entirely, my dude ]

[parodeity]

[ ok what about the closet dave will look there i guess!!! ]

Nah, we got like, this entire thing planned? Musical show and dance, don't tell anyone. We figured the props would make it, like, more legit. We'll still do it next week.

[ BECAUSE JUDAR DIDN'T DO IT? ]

He's actually really fun to hang with.

[douchemag]

[IT'S JUST MORE OF THE SAME SHITTY CLOTHES IN HIS CLOSET WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS GUY please. Please someone introduce him to a different outfit. I'm begging you.

Nothing under the desk or chair except more peach pits.]

[bloodteller]

[



you know what. yuno is coming in here with a vacuum after this trial, he's gonna get sick like this. food on the floor? do you know how UNSANITARY THAT IS, JUDAR? UGH... she's still clutching the fish prop when she stands up.

there's a cursory glance over the room, and... god, the peach pits. it's a pit of peach pits. she hates this, but at least she's pretty confident judar's got nothing on him, now. ]

...Yeah, Judar has been a big help for me. He's nice, even if he doesn't seem like it. I think he's clear on the room, too. I didn't find anything, so he absolutely didn't do it. No reason for people to even think he did, right? [ DONT TELL HER THE FLYER THEORY ]

Which means you better let me know when you guys put on your performance. I wanna see!

[parodeity]

Of course I'll let you know. You can get a front-row seat and everything, okay?

[ DUDE DAVE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW THE FLYER THEORY but fuck that theory because the two flying people are his bros ]

[bloodteller]

[ hell YEAH dave knows what's up. yuno gives him a thumbs up. ]

I'll make sure to bring flowers to toss on stage at the end, too.

[ she totally will. terrifying tbh... what is she picks one with thorns. be safe, judar and dave...

but with that, they're done here, nothing but a bunch of peach pits on the floor of this joint ]
