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

IT'S OK SHE GETS IT NOW...

[ THANK YOU RHYS, that was better than Roxy's electricity explanation. Astrid does, in fact, nod along - and she looks a hell of a lot less confused. Still kind of baffled about certain points, but at least the generalities make sense. ]

Okay, so - they probably got caught setting up the pool...but they couldn't have gotten to the pool until 6am, right? Isn't it restricted until then in the mornings?

[ The timeline is now the confusing thing, not the electricity. PROGRESS... ]

GOOD JOB YE OLDE

[ at least he did one thing right!! ]

Yeah, but I guess depending on how strictly the pool is cleaned up, they could've set it up last night or at least left the pool light running all night and smashed out the lightbulb once they were able to get inside.

[ running a hand through his hair as he considers, hm. ]

Do we know how hard it is to get into the pool before six? I've actually never been there because...

[ just gestures at his arm. ]

[ A SHRUG. ]

I've never bothered to try to get in there during restricted hours. We can ask Miata if the doors lock or if it's just "hey, don't do this", I guess?

[jackhole]

We should probably ask her, yeah. That makes a big difference here.
