week 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? setting rulebook |

No need for thanks.
[Really it's okay. There's a slight pause of silence before he says anything again.]
Hey, I'm gonna let you go back to what you were doing, but can I ask a favor first?
no subject
Of course, what is it?
no subject
He reaches out and knocks a little on Faizes head as he talks.]
Just...get your head on as straight as you can before the trial tomorrow. You've got all the time in the world afterward to beat yourself up, but we've only got tomorrow to catch the person who killed her.
[Wow he sure is good at this. At...least he's not telling him to cheer up or anything though? He could be worse at it.]
We can't do it if we are not all working together as best as we can. And remember I'm always here to talk and junk. [After this though why would you want to talk to him about anything.]
no subject
[So while Faize doesn't particularly look cheered up, he at least doesn't...look worse? That's something.]
..of course. Thank you, Bill.
no subject
That knock on his head turns to a friendly hair ruffle.]
You're welcome. Now go get outta here and get some of that dumb sleep thing. You could probably use it.
[You're free to go Faize, he won't soak up any more of your sulking time.]
no subject
[But...Bill's right. They only have one day let to catch their killer. And as much as he feels like he just plain CAN'T sleep (or eat, for that matter), he won't be of much use if he continues on like this for another night. So...congrats, Bill. You convinced the elf to actually try and sleep tonight.]
Mmm...you too, Bill. As you said, we have only one day left? We should all be at our best for that...
no subject
Hopefully.]
Sleeping tonight is the least I can do for Alisha. I'll probably be up a little while longer brainstorming this whole situation, but I'll sleep tonight. Promise.
