trial #3

[judgejudy]

DAY 6 (afternoon) Complex Population: 27 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 10/22. voting

She was hardly crazy, you're just a coward.

[newlugers]

[ WOW ]

Oh, shut up, gramps! What kind of normal person threatens strangers with a whip? They don't!

[toyotamane]

How many times did she hit you with that whip? People like their scare tactics, I ain't gonna call that crazy.

[It is mean though, but. Stop being a weenie Steve.]

[newlugers]

It's still crazy even if she didn't actually hit me with it! If you started swinging your dumb sword gun at me, I'd call you crazy, too.

[ he calls it dumb but in reality he wants one too ]

[toyotamane]

[he smells the jealousy Steve]

Yeah, but that'd actually be a threat. What's a whip gonna do? Make you cry 'cause it stings?

[newlugers]

You know they use whips to torture people, right? Idiot.

[toyotamane]

Yeah, when you're tied up and can't move. When did that ever happen?

[Look, whips are for babies okay, he's an expert.]

Nah, Miss Prosecutor was just grandstanding, and you were intimidated anyway.

[mansplains]

....She was pretty scary.

[look the weenie agrees with you]

[grimdeity]

You think all women are scary.

[mansplains]

I do, but she had a whip....

[grimdeity]

Not into BDSM, then?

[mansplains]

....


Aren't you a little young for that kind of talk.

[grimdeity]

In some cultures, I would be married with several kids by my age.

[puffing]

Like Ciel's.

[ Bigby here with sound knowledge to provide. this has been his role for the evening. ]

[newlugers]

[ INSTANTANEOUS BOND FORMED. ]

You have no idea. I had to live with her.

[mansplains]

[Listen..... he feels you.....]

Did she try to use that whip on you?

[newlugers]

Yeah, the very first time we met! 'Cause she wanted to sleep in the bed. That's it!

[ you shouldn't speak ill of the dead, steve?! ]

[mansplains]

[Shudders....]

Sharp, but scary. I'm glad I never ran afoul of that whip.

[newlugers]

Consider yourself lucky. Although I guess you don't have to worry about that now.

[ he's less sad about her death and more troubled by it... he's seen too much death (and undeath) to get depressed by it now. ]

[mansplains]

I guess not.

[someone please steal that whip and terrorize these weenies]

....Poor Franziska, though. Scary or not, she didn't deserve this.
