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 |

It's pretty risky, yeah, but where I'm from...people like me usually don't live long enough to be as old as I am anyway. I'd like to take my chances here while I can, and Adam feels the same way. It's better than trying to face this alone isn't it?

[His expression falls slightly - he knows too much about the latter. There's a long pause, and then:]
...What if one of you was a staff member? What would happen then?
no subject
Then... we'd do what we had to. I don't want to be with someone who's a murderer and I doubt Luke wants that either. I know I'm defending him at the moment and that's because the logic doesn't stand up. If someone comes up with a good reason why he might be staff... then I won't argue.

We kind of talked about that possibility, too. It doesn't matter how much Adam and I like each other and want to stick together. If there's logic involved that points to one of us being staff, we're going to do what's right and call it out. Both of us want to catch the staff members and stop this from happening. I think we're both level-headed enough not to let biases blind us from what's true.

I see. You'll do what must be done, regardless of your own emotions on it? How brave.
[He nods.]
I hope that your opinions will stay the same, if that time ever comes.
