trial #2
 Complex Population: 32 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." 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 10/15. voting |

...? Anything else?
[WHAT'S THAT why did she cut herself off. What sordid sickness details are you hiding, Alice!!]
If it gets worse... Do we have any way of caring for the ill here?
no subject
[She shrugs. She doesn't know what antibiotics are - they don't have them in Sylvarant - so that didn't even ping her radar when she was looking at the terminal.]
And we're the only ones here... I don't think any of us are doctors.
no subject
The antibiotics may help. I was told they're used to help treat illnesses... And I have a small amount of medical knowledge myself, if you require assistance.
[Don't go to him for help, Alice. He beefarms broken noses back into place and literally stitches his own open wounds shut with sewing needles and sake.]

[Well. Shit.
Alice looks down at her pocket and slides a hand into it, then looks back up at him.]
So if there was something else in there that sounded like it might be medicine... does that mean it probably isn't?
no subject
I don't believe so? Or rather, I didn't recognize anything else on the list that seemed like it could have been used for treating illnesses.
no subject
Where I come from, they sometimes referred to medicines as drugs, so I thought...
no subject
[WELL IT... IT MIGHT BE MEDICINE?? He's not really optimistic, but he doesn't need to say that to Alice.]
no subject
I asked for it before I got sick, because if it was dangerous I didn't want it used against me. But then when I woke up this morning, I thought maybe it was medicine after all. They were so prepared for everything else [like the whole death thing, providing a courtroom and voting protocols and all] I thought maybe they knew getting sick was something that might happen.
no subject
I understand the logic, but still... You didn't use it, did you? If you took it and felt even worse after, that's not a good sign.
[in before Alice ends up dying mid-trial Spain Style™ because she consumed poison.]
no subject
[Alice shrugs. He's right about it not being a good sign, but...]
I don't really feel better, but I don't feel worse, either. I'm more clearheaded than I thought I would be, since being sick can make it hard to think straight and remember things sometimes... so maybe it was the right medicine after all?
no subject
Mm... It might be something of a symptom-reliever, in that case? But you should keep an even closer eye on your health, then. If it does have any ill effects, we'll need to act quickly if we intend on finding a way to counteract it.

But she's right, so he nods.]
Having a clear mind will help us out in the meantime. Just take care.
