week 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? setting rulebook |
yoite's room
And that's it. That's the joke. Somehow Ranulf has partnered up with the wild beast that devoured Poland's bra stuffing and is going to search Yoite's room. He has no idea what will happen here but, hey, if anybody can communicate and understand the dog it's probably him.
He takes note of anything outside the door first and then walks in. OKAY. What is he seeing/smelling and does he have to stop the dog from eating something on the ground? ]
no subject
[the dog is also bounding towards the bed to go take a nap]
[who signed him up for this]
no subject
When they step inside one thing Ranulf might notice is that the room looks very clean and tidy. There's nothing amiss on the floors, it almost looks like a stock room-- like Yoite hasn't bothered to try to personalize it at all.
The two beds are made perfectly too, so they'll be nice and comfortable for the annoying dog
to mess up.]no subject
Oh well. Maybe the dog will be useful. He could... make conversation, maybe. Laguz to animal. ...
Also, he's very grateful that Yoite's room is tidy. Every time he enters these rooms he expects another faceful of Vegeta musk and is pleasantly relieved when it isn't the case. Sorry, Vegeta. Sweat might be something he's used to smelling but it doesn't mean he likes it.
And Vegeta is the person who he attributes to sweat here, apparently.At first glance there isn't anything on the beds so he leaves them to the dog. Ranulf begins his search at the closet. Any glittery clothes, clothes that smell like Clover, or nefarious things in this closet, Yoite? ]
no subject
[HE IS A GOOD DOG, THAT'S HOW]
[haha jk he continues to roll, making the bed a total horrible mess. he then grabs one of the blankets and goes under the bed, dragging them with him]
bark bark!!!
["i am very tired. i have a quilt to patch back home. please, let me go home."]
[wait that can't be right]
no subject
It doesn't smell of Clover though, but it does smell of a certain other female who loved earmuffs. There's no trace of glitter anywhere.
The annoying dog finds nothing under the bed! But it does look like a good place for a nap.]
no subject
And ah yes, the ever-efficient animal language that condenses long sentences into short barks, growls, meows, and so on. How he has missed it. The barks get him to turn his head toward the bed and see the mess being made. He sighs before turning back to the closet, kneeling in front of the safe, and opening it. ]
Honestly, I think we're all tired. This level of stress isn't good for anyone. [ Sorry, dog. ]
no subject
["that's rough, buddy."
[the dog leaves all the blankets there. it will make a nice nest Later. for now, the dog will start pawing at the dresser in the hopes of opening it.]
bark!!!???
["is this where he keeps the bones too?"]
no subject
The dog is (somehow) successful in opening the dresser. There are many, many pairs of gloves here, all in shades of brown. There is one pair however that is pink and also smells like Sadie, if the dog knows what she smells like.]
no subject
I doubt it. Usually beorc keep clothes in these drawers, not personal effects. [ Which makes sense, that's what they're for.
And really beorc have too many clothes. When do they even find the time to wear all of these? Still, better clothes than armor.
He at least picks up the paper and turns it over to make sure it has no other clues on it. Since it probably doesn't, he puts it back in place. As long as letters are properly addressed he won't read them. Sorry, murder confession. You'll have to remain an unvital clue because privacy is a thing.
He closes the safe and briefly checks around the television before going to the nightstand. ]
no subject
["patching it is so long. i might just leave it as is."]
[the dog does know what sadie smells like! he has no idea how to express this because he doesn't know names, though.]
bark bark???
["this smells like sloth!! that's terrible. there are no bones. this is no way for a person to live."]
[the dog is going to go stare out the window dramatically. it's angsting, shh.]
no subject
Around the television, there's nothing at all-- house keeping is pretty thorough. As for the nightstand, there's the complimentary pad of paper sitting on top of it, but there's only a few pieces of paper left in it.
Annoying dog can angst out the window all he wants and the view is nice, but there's nothing to see here.]
no subject
Ha. You might think that, but beorc lives aren't as terrible as you might believe. They're really efficient, and usually rely on logic to make their decisions instead of their instincts. [ Is Ranulf a human lover? Why, yes.
Yes he is.
He's about to move on to fix the dog's mess but, wait. That pad looks like it's seen some heavy use and maybe exciting things were written on it (like a second murder confession). He can finally test out the pencil trick Lithuania and Bill taught him! Does nothing happen? Are letters revealed? Is it Yoite's math homework? Much mystery, much intrigue. ]
no subject
["humans are capable of both very good and very bad things, if given the chance."]
[that sure is dramatic for a dog. the dog moves on to exploring the bathroom.]
[where is his toilet spaghetti, yoite.]
no subject
There is a disappointing lack of spaghetti in the toilet bowl. There's nothing out of place in the bathroom, like the rest of his room it looks like a stock room.]
no subject
[ After all... he stares at the math and goes down memory lane. It takes him a minute to snap out of it and push the pad away. None of the numbers make sense to him, a secret math prodigy he is not.
Since the dog is in the bathroom this is a good time for Ranulf to research the areas the dog looked at, just to confirm what's been found with his own eyes. Once he's done he joins the dog in the bathroom.
Again, gotta confirm everything!! Is there anything else he needs to find here? Is this everything? ]
Oh. And I should probably ask, did you see Clover yesterday morning? [ He pauses. Does the dog need a description of her?
A shitty one.] She's one of the wraths and she's a friend of Undyne's.no subject
["the small pink one!! she was on undyne's shoulders. undyne is very strong but she lets me eat the bones papyrus gives her. it's nice. people should be nicer to dogs."]
[the dog has decided that this is boring. he is going to go into the mess he made, underneath the bed.]
ruffffff...
["good night."]
no subject
no subject
[ Is it too late? Probably. He can't exactly leave the dog in Yoite's room like this, but he doesn't know if he wants to wait for it either. He debates waking it up for about a minute before sitting down on the second bed and deciding to wait.
If it takes longer than ten minutes he's going to fall asleep and someone will have to come wake him and the dog up.
Sorry not sorry, Yoite. ]
