trial #5

[judgejudy]

DAY 10 (afternoon) Complex Population: 15 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 11/5. voting

I don't believe Shijima is staff, but...

[Sorry, Leo. She's giving him a glance wherever he is.]

It's always struck me as strange that Leo was able to remove his monitor without suffering any repercussions. Not to imply amputation isn't negative enough, but without our monitors — both Judy and the staff are unable to control us.

[So, you know. Unless the staff is able to get Judy to shock him in any other way? It seems weird to her.]

I agree. I thought they would've killed me for it by now. [Unless they just figured he'd out-stupid himself and wind up bleeding out on the stairs to the library, which, y'know, is not at all impossible. Nerds will be nerds.] But then, the monitors don't seem to be a priority anymore. I'm still forced to sleep and wake up like everyone else, and that's the only thing I've really tested.

[Since he hasn't been voted for or forced to be executioner, and Alice dragged him around during the trial immediately after his amputation... which he's still salty about.]

Lee-Lee's a lot of things, like stubborn and an idiot, but I don't think a staff member is one of them. Besides, he can barely get around now. If he tried to kill anyone, all they'd have to do to escape would be push him over and run.

[She shrugs.]

If he was really a staff member, I doubt he would have let me cut off his foot.

[Not just for the above reasons, but also because if she was at all suspicious of him? It would have been too easy to "accidentally" chainsaw him in half or let him bleed out.]

I'm not. I told Elizabeth I wasn't the doctor, either. She thought I might be because I kept patching our room members up, but those skills don't have anything to do with roles, really...

[ she sighs. ]

Bigby accused me of being the doctor, too. Obviously they were wrong, but really, what was I doing to make them think this?
