week 7 - trial; day 1

[vicedirector]

seven vices case 7 trial, day 1 ♫ saturday 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? victims suspects cast setting rulebook

Look. All of the games I've recently played on my laptop are eroges - porn games.

[ As for theories. . . ] First we have to stop this game. For good.

[herbgrace]

[Why do you play things like that, Himeko...] I agree, but I have no idea where to even begin with that.

[dereban]

[ Inaba is hella thirsty. ]

Well, I don't either. I think the first thing we should do is fix that whole "roomfriend" arrangement because clearly it's not being done right.

[herbgrace]

Yes, it really could be going better, couldn't it? [So much roomfriend failure.] It works for Poland and me because we both wake up if the other gets up, but I believe we're lighter sleepers than most of you.

[dereban]

I'm a light sleeper myself. [ Unless she like, collapses, but... ]

To be honest, I was thinking that if people are in groups of three or bigger, they should sleep in shifts rather than altogether.

[herbgrace]

That's not a bad idea, though it won't stop whoever's awake from wandering off without telling anyone. [Which people seem to enjoy doing?]

[dereban]

Clearly this "shifts" thing shouldn't be just one person being awake.

[ Or she could give up now. ]

[herbgrace]

You'd think we could just trust people to either stay in their rooms or inform whoever they're with when they're leaving. [AND YET.]

[dereban]

... Yeah. That's the main issue here, isn't it?
