week 9 - trial; day 1

[vicedirector]

seven vices case 9 trial, day 1 ♫ friday At 9AM, every television will go off, loud enough to wake anyone sleeping. The calm, apathetic voice will advise everyone to gather in the chapel for the trial. Static will continue to blare in the head of anyone dillydallying. Once all of the guests have gathered in the chapel, the doors will lock. Most of the pews have been moved aside to allow for more space, and a few tables have been set up on the altar. On the first, there is an additional copy of the rulebook, and the information cards of the victim and suspects laid out, with space for the suspects to provide their whereabouts, as well as an autopsy report. There is also a large wheeled chalkboard upon which you may write theories. On the second table is a pitcher of water and some glasses, as well as very simple sandwiches and pastries. The door behind the altar has finally been unlocked. It's a rather plain room with an area set off by a folding screen. Inside, you will find a table on which the victim's body has been laid out. Next to the table, two black and white photographs have been hung on the screen. they are close ups of the victim's body, as it was found when the body discovery announcement chimed. A few sticks of incense burn in the corner to avoid any smells. At 6PM, the trial will adjourn. Everyone will be escorted back to the hotel by Miata, after which everyone is allowed to head to either the kitchen to get dinner, or to their rooms. Attempting to wander off into the other areas of the hotel will trigger the static alarms in everyone's heads/televisions. >Discuss? victim   suspects      cast setting rulebook

[Is that a death flag. That seems like a death flag.

But he gives her a slightly strained smile and links his pinky with hers without hesitation.]

Yeah. It's a promise.

[Also like a smooth motherfucker, he's just going to let go of her pinky after a moment to take her hand. He's still behind the pew, but it's close enough for now?]

You didn't talk about me at the sleepover, did you...?

[Look, the important questions can come later. First, if he can make her smile, that's what's important.]

[muties]

[ Would I do that to you, wow.

Hinata is rewarded for his effort, Roxy does turn and give him a mischievous smile accompanied by a wink. ]

Wouldn't you like to know.

[ guys this a murder trial ]

[hopefragment]

[UGH he's happy to see the smile but At What Cost. For a few seconds, he can't think of a response, so instead just darts in to peck a quick kiss to her lips in an attempt to fluster her even a little. He's not good at that game, though.]

Then I guess I'll just have to settle for reading the fic you shared with Astrid, huh?

[muties]

[ Her grin widens at the kiss, but she's not flustered until he mentioned The Fic. ]

Ohhhh my god, no, I didn't share it with her. She found it and refused to give it back! It's so embarrassing babe, you don't wanna traumatize yourself with it.

[hopefragment]

You know that just makes me want to read it more, right?

[Ah, no, he's grinning now. He's absolutely going to traumatize himself with her fic.]

If you're writing it, I bet it's great.

[Pecks a kiss to her forehead. You're doomed to this life of affection unless you get executed tomorrow.]

But... based on the fact that she found it, it's safe to assume you guys slept in your room, then?

[muties]

Uuuugh.

[ Why u kill her this way, boyfriend. Also wow where is the trust, Jade. Where is it. ]

Yeah we did. [ ... ] I guess whoever searches my room better watch out for traps? She put some up, and I have no frickin' clue where.

[hopefragment]

T-traps, really?!

[Oh... good....... rip in pieces Hinata and Poland.]
