trial #2





DAY 4 (afternoon)
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.

Voting will close at 9PM EST on 10/15.

voting

[Okay, Alice can't help but giggle at that. Jack, you're cooler than she thought? She guesses she can put up with being babysat by you.]

I promise I'll vote for him if you get killed! ♡

You're-- kinda worryingly cheerful about that.

[ Jack laughs, though, and he shrugs. ]

But, uh, fine with it, considering the subject! Because man, if I die, I at least want to be avenged?

[personal profile] selfsufficiency 2016-10-15 09:42 pm (UTC)(link)
There's no point in being all gloomy, is there?

[Not even when talking about killing people. Especially not then, apparently...]

I think even the people here want us to be able to avenge the victims. That's why they're letting us be the ones to execute whoever we vote for, right?
heroizes: (and make sure the doors are locked)

[personal profile] heroizes 2016-10-15 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
...I mean, wanna say no, but I also don't feel like being cheerful about torture is... ideal....

[ He trails off awkwardly, but shrugs as his grin gets cockier. ]

However killing one of the staff? That- That would be fine? I mean, murder's totally cool when they're a dick that had it comin'.
selfsufficiency: (in gorilla warfare and i'm the top)

[personal profile] selfsufficiency 2016-10-15 09:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Exactly!

[They're agreeing? Oh, god, why.]

I can't wait until we catch one. I want to see them get what's coming to them! Sooo... do you have any guesses? About who the staff members might be?
heroizes: (they say you and the devil)

[personal profile] heroizes 2016-10-15 10:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[ because you're talking to the future space hitler tbh alice ]

Yeah, I mean, bad guys? Totally desserve what's comin', no complaints there.

[ Though for actually theorizing, Jack looks thoughtful, then shakes his head with a sigh. ]

I mean, depends on which theory you wanna go with. Personally? I'd rather look at how people have acted here instead of, uh, skills. For admittedly selfish reasons, because if y'all are looking at Rhys for being a tinkerer, that's... I mean, same for me. I could get into one of those monitors no problem, and I'll admit that. So. The other one.

[ He sighs again ]

How things went down last week. First trial, they've gotta make sure to get people voting for someone, right? 'Cause either they're taking a gamble and one of them might get caught, or they get their numbers revealed. So... I mean, to me, that makes that interrogation of whatshername pretty, uh. Worrying. Not that she was helping herself out there, but I kinda agree with what Fran is saying in that department.
selfsufficiency: (over 300 confirmed kills i am trained)

[personal profile] selfsufficiency 2016-10-15 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[The awful part is if she knew that was what he was going to become she'd just admire him more.]

I guess you have a point there... and Franzy does, too.

[Even though Alice doesn't actually like admitting it. Sigh. Something about Franziska's attitude just rubs her the wrong way.]

I mean, I can see why everyone interrogated her. It was suspicious that she had a history of being violent with the victim, and then she just kept digging her own grave after that. I think I'd agree with it more if not for that, actually... it would have looked really suspicious if she wasn't giving them a reason to keep asking questions, but since she was, I can't really blame any of them for what they did.

[She tilts her head to one side.]

What about for the person who actually did the killing? The idea that the actual killer might be someone young or frail has been brought up a few times because of how young the victims are. Do you think that holds any weight?

[ ALICE... you're grounded oh my god ]

Nah, I can't either. And I mean, if the circumstances were any different? I'd totally blow it off. But... We're not that lucky. So, uh, as things are, I've gotta think that maybe it was convenient for them to have some crazy chick and really jump on that.

[ He looks thoughtful for a moment at her second question, and it takes a moment for him to answer. ]

I mean... Possibly. Hell, we don't even know for sure that they even pick them, do we? Might as well be randomized with how that "bug" went for all we know. So it's hard to say. But assuming that it's not just friggin' random, yeah, that's the best idea we have to go on. Pick a kid because they're not gonna fight. Which... [ That thought makes him uncomfortable, but he shrugs ] Then that becomes a question of who's frail enough that they're gonna pick a kid even when they get some hotshit weapon?
selfsufficiency: (and i can kill you)

[personal profile] selfsufficiency 2016-10-15 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm...

[Alice hums, thinking about it.]

Well... there is Cici. He was in Charles's room and I know he wanted to have the bed... they might have fought about that. And he was pretty quick to point the finger at other people earlier on in the trial. He's pretty small.

[She looks around the room and points out a couple of others - Minatsuki, Franziska, Shijima, and Hitsugi.]

They're all pretty short, too. But I don't know if I would describe Shijima as frail, she put up a pretty good fight for the bed the first night we slept together.

I've taken on two people bigger than me since getting here. They can surely attest to the fact I'd be able to kill a bigger opponent.

[ THIS IS IMPORTANT i guess ]

[personal profile] jackhole 2016-10-15 10:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[ oi ]

Are you talking about that time you almost slit my throat? [ wait ] Did you do that to someone else too?
liven: (INSULT ► let me be blunt.)

[personal profile] liven 2016-10-15 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I didn't pull a blade on the other fellow. I just kicked him very hard.

[ he called her smol ]
jackhole: (pic#10153577)

[personal profile] jackhole 2016-10-15 10:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[ also apparently flat view doesn't tell you where these threads are from SO HE'S AWAKE ENOUGH TO VOUCH AT THIS POINT ]

Oh. Well, alright.

[ you know, he'd be weirdly jealous if she did pull a blade on the other guy. which is. really embarrassing. rhys, get a hold of yourself. ]

[ RHYS...THAT'S CONCERNING........... ]

Still, it should be obvious I am perfectly capable of taking on bigger targets.
jackhole: (pic#9980891)

[personal profile] jackhole 2016-10-15 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[ look, he likes her now so he wants to be one of the only ones she stabbed. what if she stabbed someone he hated AND him?? he'd be so hurt. ]

Yeah, pretty much. You're definitely a threat.
liven: (CALM ► regard.)

[personal profile] liven 2016-10-15 10:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[ RHYS THAT'S WEIRD but ok whatever the fuck i guess shijima is ok with that. one of her canon allies is a dude who is literally just obsessed with her bro and herself because they're immortal. why not.

she preens a little. ]


I am.

[ SHE IS A MIGHTY HUNTRESS of mice and rats and shit ]
chiseler: (ain't it beautiful? so unusual)

[personal profile] chiseler 2016-10-15 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[Slides in here...]

Can agree, actually a threat. [That's all he has to say but considering he's the one that was kicked because he assumed she was too small to deal he feels like he can vouch for that.] But don't worry, I think you're the only one she'd care about stabbing.

[ Okay, before he gets to most of this, there's an important question first: ]

...Wait, hold up, you lost me. Who's Cici?
selfsufficiency: (sniper in the entire us armed forces)

[personal profile] selfsufficiency 2016-10-15 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Ciel! I call him Cici. ♡

[Because she thinks he's hilarious, so he earned a nickname.]
heroizes: by which i mean don't judge me (no third)

[personal profile] heroizes 2016-10-15 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh. Ohhh.

[ Jack nods, but it comes with a sour frown. ]

Yeah, that punk just called me out right away. Which, fair normally, rude from him because damn, what an unpleasant kid.
selfsufficiency: (as we speak i am contacting)

[personal profile] selfsufficiency 2016-10-15 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
He sort of has acted a little suspiciously all along, hasn't he? But... he's also a child, so people probably won't want to vote for him.

Because, if we're wrong, then...

[Then they all get to watch one of their own kill a kid. So. Uh.]
heroizes: (every carpet)

[personal profile] heroizes 2016-10-15 11:03 pm (UTC)(link)
No, yeah, I'm not saying vote for him or anything. Just saying he's a jerk.

[ Though something seems to dawn on him, so he adds: ]

Which, related, what if that's... I dunno, a part of it? Like, from where I, a sane, rational adult [ jack shut up ] stand, there are a lot of kids here. So, hell, just statistically speaking, there's probably someone I'd call a kid on it.
selfsufficiency: (secret raids on al-quaeda and i have)

1/2

[personal profile] selfsufficiency 2016-10-15 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[if jack is a sane, rational adult then they're all screwed]

...there probably is. That might be how they expect to get away with this.
selfsufficiency: (and i've been involved in numerous)

2/2

[personal profile] selfsufficiency 2016-10-15 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
But if a kid is involved with this... I won't show them mercy just because they're young.

[ alice what the fuck ]

You are so bloodthirsty, holy crap. Look, all- All for punishing bad guys, but c'mon!
