trial #1
![]() Complex Population: 34 At noon, the same tone from the morning rings out, and Judy's voice filters out over the intercom. "Good afternoon, residents. As per Safety Protocol 6227-A, it is time to conduct a trial to bring justice for the victim. Please proceed to the courtroom on the first level." If you're confused as to what she means, you'll see that the room across from the cafeteria is unlocked, as well as the room connected to it. Just as at night, if you don't go to the courtroom, you'll be treated to an electric shock of increasing strength until you go to the courtroom or are unconscious. Though considering the ominous penalty for not participating in a trial, you should likely just go rather than risk not voting because you've been knocked out by your own stubbornness... Once you're in the courtroom, you'll find that bottled water and light snacks are provided, but otherwise you'll have to bring anything else you may need. As you come to your conclusions about who to vote for, you can step into the judgement theater to cast your vote at the terminal. You may change your vote as many times as you'd like, but at 7PM, your vote (or lack thereof) is locked in. You have until 7PM to discuss and vote for who you think the murderer is. ic rulebook character statuses character profiles Voting will close at 9PM EST on 10/8. voting |

If you're telling the truth who's going to back you up on that? Just saying "I'm telling the truth" isn't really that helpful without a witness.

Shishi fell asleep on top of me and by her own admission she didn't wake up all night, so either I'm telling the truth or I'm just really good at slipping out from under people without waking them up.

[ this is the dumbest alibi ever, but o k ]

Considering some of the things you've told me I'd lean toward the latter. But let's say it wasn't you. What other questions would you start asking people?
no subject
It's really basic stuff, but nobody's perfect, so if someone's lying they'll let something slip eventually.

[She makes a face at the courtroom.]
...but I think the whole point of this was for us to try and catch someone, so maybe it wouldn't have taken as much preparation as we might expect.

Okay. Did somebody ask Judy how long Charles was dead before we found him? That might help us, too.

That might be easier to find than bloody hands or clothes.

[Watch them find it on a shelf in the community kitchen or something, gross.]
Maybe we should be asking if anyone here has a foot fetish. ♡

That might be less weird to admit than killing the kid, I'll admit. But if they were going after the ankle monitor maybe we should be investigating to see if anyone knows more than they should about those things.

That's not a bad idea.
