WEEK ONE: TRIAL

[retellers]

WEEK ONE: TRIAL (38 remain) Rise and shine, gremlins. Hopefully you found it in you to make and eat breakfast, despite yesterday's news. At 11am, everyone will receive a message on their PHS, simply stating: empoti enp emporium. by the strike of twelve. Shortly before 12pm, every participant will feel compelled to move towards the Emporium, if they aren't already there. No exceptions! Though they will have to navigate around shelves and merchandise and the like, everyone will fit neatly inside the room. Once all the participants are present and the clock strikes twelve, the doors lock behind them. Three of the Leaders are there with them: Swan, Tiger, and Goat. Tiger speaks. "You have nine hours. Try not to stab each other during them." ༶•┈┈⛧┈｡o°✥✣ 　　 ✣✥°o｡┈⛧┈┈•༶ Hello, everyone, and welcome to the second trial! For the next nine hours, the characters are expected to discuss among themselves, ask questions, examine the bodies of the victims, look over the evidence found yesterday, and revisit locations as needed in order to find the culprit(s). There'll be a one hour break from 5-6pm EST, where no mod tags will occur. Before the trial is over, please remember to place your character's vote over on the voting page. Voting will close at 9pm EST/6pm PST, and will serve as our activity check for the week, so please be sure you get your vote in before it ends unless you have contacted us previously. If you have any questions at any time, please let us know by pinging us on Discord!

INVESTIGATIONS

[retellers]

[ Once a location has been requested, a mod will post a sub-top level will be posted under this comment. ]

MOON

[retellers]

[ Here they are on the moon, as they step out of the portal.

Goat hands the sword to Taako now. ]

Let me know if you require assistance.

[uhhhmagic]

Teleporting, fun!

[i love that taako is by far the least qualified in this group to be carrying this fucking sword but he is SO EXCITED to be doing it, swinging it around with all the strength in his wizard arms (not much).




also do we need spacesuits. I hope we all just died.]

Let's go commit some interstellar crime, amigos!

[yamantaka]

If there were three people on the moon and we killed an alien, would that be messed up or what?

[ shima has his staff out and he's READY ]

[laid]

You know, we really don't have ta kill the thing, do we? We just have ta get the evidence back.

[TIREDLY. He also has his weapon out, it's a bow right now. Now we have an even class spread.]

VR ROOM

[retellers]

[ Teleportation is dope. Here they are in front of the VR room. ]

I'll be here if you need anything.

[reconnective]

Thanks, Swan. [and into the VR room he goes. the first thing's first, is the classroom set-up still the same as yesterday's investigation?]

Alphinaud said there was a message written on the board in this room. Do you think maybe that was Cater, too?

[recrowns]

[he nods along with that and - MODS, THE SETTINGS DON'T CHANGE RIGHT so like if someone went to the planetarium and railroad station after inves yesterday the writing would've been there??

IF THIS IS TRUE, soo-won is going to investigate the writing to see if it matches!!]

That is my current theory. It said 'Hurry up', correct?

[frostythehitman]

[ He sideeyes Swan as he steps further into the VR room, but gets to work. ]

There was other writing too, right? Do either of you know what those notes looked like?

??? ROOM

[retellers]

[ They step out of the void portal, before it vanishes. Here they are at the ??? room. ]

Let me know when you want to return.

[dianxias]

Miss Izumo, you checked this room first, right...?

[ xie lian's going to check out that operating table! is there anything weird on it besides the blood stains! because that's weird.

it has restraints: were any of them used? how many of them are broken? are there any bloody spots or fibers or anything on the inside of the restraints?]

[sacredchants]

I did, but I can't say that I took a good look at everything.

[ she did not want to be back in here, but it's fine. there's a murderer that needs to be caught. but hmmmmm. kano made an interesting comment about the sink so, she's going to go investigate the sink. does it still work? hmmm. ]

[retellers]

[ Nothing weird on the table besides blood stains! None of the restraints appear to be used either, and there are no bloody spots inside of them. I have no idea how many are broken.

The sink still works. Is Izumo turning it on? ]

ANDROMEDA ROOM (KANO + CLAUDE)

[retellers]

[ Swan is using the power of teleportation to skip the locks, and also, if Claude left anything in here rip to us eski isn't here. anyway here you are ]

[evocationary]

[ alright, lup is tired so she's just going to immediately trash the room. bedsheets, off! look under the beds! slap the pillows! check the closets! ]

[supremity]

[ Poor Claude is fucking unconscious but whaddya gonna do

Hua Cheng will release Kano back to his other handlers because he's going to be a hindrance more than a help. Honestly checking Claude's corner, too, but the ceiling and if there's anything between the TV and the wall. ]

[suddenlybees]

[ Oh my god, Kano sinks down to the floor and just sort of lies there in front of the door while the blood returns to everywhere else but his head. ]

SHARON'S ROOM

[retellers]

[ bop. ]

[siblingless]

[i'm crying please tell me goat teleported her inside

IF SO, uh. Is anything immediately off at first glance? If not, she will look at the ceilings, the walls, floor, and then head to the pods. I'm so sorry, mods.]

[retellers]

[ Everything is neat and tidy and nothing is out of place. ]

[siblingless]

[Nothing under the bedsheets or mattresses? Do they even have mattresses anymore? Screaming. She will also check the storage compartments, too.

If that yields nothing, she will check the TV, and then the area with the shower.]

TECH LAB

[retellers]

[ Here they are. Tiger is here. ]

Go and look.

[sacredchants]

[ OKAY.

SO. this place looks like a wreck...but is there a sense of the wreck? what kind of chemicals were disturbed? ACTUALLY. what do these fumes smell like? is there any traces of them??? like... is it foul smelling??

other than that, we know that lye was missing but was anything else disturbed alongside it? ]

[retellers]

[ The fumes don't smell like one thing in particular, mostly because if you look at what's knocked over it is many different jars of different chemicals. The jars are all just on the ground and smashed.

The smell isn't as strong as it was yesterday, but it's still there. ]

[sacredchants]

[ do they looked like they were smashed as a result of a struggle, like knocked off because someone was thrown against them? or do they look smashed on purpose like someone decided to throw them on the ground??? ]
