week 8 - trial; day 1

[vicedirector]

seven vices case 8 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? victim   suspects      cast setting rulebook

Should I be wearing pants for this?

[Don't look up her skirt.]

[hopefragment]

...You can just take your shoe off and hand it to me if you're that worried.

[POLAND... PLEASE....]

[sobowtor]

[Poland slips off her boot and hands it over.]

Here.

[muties]

No, you shouldn't be wearing anything except underwear. We gotta be thorough.

[hopefragment]

No, Roxy, that's fine.

[muties]

Oh, all right.

[ SHE WAS TRYING TO HELP ]

Just hope no one's hidin' evidence in their bra.

[sobowtor]

Who would put things in their bra I mean-- [Is she sweating? She's sweating.]

Ha ha! Ha!

[muties]

[ narrows eyes DAMN IT POLAND will this be the shortest trial ever, does she have evidence in her bra gdi ]

Poland, what do you have in your bra.

[sobowtor]

What's supposed to be there!

[She'd say boobs but a lie detector would give her away immediately anyways.]

[dhaosu]

[ For once he's glad a human is leading this investigation and it is one of the few reasonable ones. ]

[dereban]

But what if they're hiding something under their underwear? What then?

[ Inaba, that's not helping. ] Do we still strip them of that, too?

[ This is why she's not allowed to talk at trials when it's not serious. ]

[hopefragment]

...Look, we might have to resort to that later, but for now, I'm only interested in matching up shoes.

[UGH UNDERWEAR... Break better not look toward him, Hinata never wants to see another suspect's dingle dongle ever again.]

If you want to lead a strip search, that's your prerogative.

[sobowtor]

What do you mean later?!

[HINATA HOW DARE YOU BETRAY HER]

[hopefragment]

It's Inaba who said it!!

[Why does he always get penalized for this stuff????]

I don't think it's relevant right now, anyway, don't worry!

[muties]

[ guess he better strip poland and satori then

er, and sans?? ]

[dereban]

I'll do it if it's necessary. I don't discriminate between naked guys or girls, I've seen it all.

[ And she's actually legit telling the truth. ]

[muties]

No one needs to hear about your days at the all genders strip club, Koko.

[sobowtor]

No!

[Poland at least needs underwear.]

[dhaosu]

Thankfully, we're not going allow that, correct?

[ Agree with him, Poland. This is not happening. ]

[sobowtor]

[Poland's busy hiding in Dhaos' multiple cloaks.]

[dhaosu]

Absolutely not.

[ Dhaos is firm on this one. ]

[okuri]

No.

[thebonezone]

[HE'S A SKELETON]

[dereban]

See? At least you don't have a bone to pick with this situation.

[ I N A B A ]

[thebonezone]
