trial #5
 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 |

He might have tried to kill one of you guys, but I know he wouldn't have killed Elizabth, or me, or any of the others who shared a room with him!
no subject
[ Still. ] Doesn't mean because he wouldn't kill a couple of people that he was good. He killed Kei so his hands aren't clean even if Elizabeth was an accident.

[Alice scowls.]
Elizabeth was one of the people who he wouldn't have killed. So start thinking about why they both ended up dead, if you want to figure out what's going on here. He's already dead, so going on and on about how he was a staff member isn't going to accomplish anything!

[ HE SIGHS and moves along. ] Elizabeth made herself too big of a target after the last trial with Rhys. If Elizabeth already knew Bibgy was staff given her "think tank" status then it's possible the overseer, whoever they are, didn't like a staff and think tank working together. [ This is all assumption but that's pretty much all they have to go on. ]
I find it hard to believe aside from the will Elizabeth didn't leave any clues. Did Angel hear or see anything else before Elizabeth died?
no subject
[ a sigh. ]
I still believe that anyone who enters a room in the dead of night and isn't smart enough to make the first blow count doesn't really deserve to have survived, anyway. But "clean hands"...who's stupid enough to think that's true of any of us? Even those of us who haven't killed a person here directly have been party to these deaths. I'm getting tired of debating our morality when the truth is none of us have any.

[ he folds his arms. ]
We can't get him back for it now, but now that we know he's one of the bad guys, we might be able to guess the other ones.

[Especially not since, you know. #borderlands.]
Regardless — Bigby is dead. We're only wasting time by arguing about his role, rather than who could have wanted him and Elizabeth dead.
no subject
[ hands on his hips. ]

[Steve might want to get out of Alice's line of sight, because she's absolutely going for the whip to try and hit him with it.]
Who cares if he was staff? Elizabeth was the victim, the one person other than Bigby and the killer who was there, and she said not to blame him! So if we want to get anywhere with this, we have to start thinking about who we should be blaming!

[Says Alfendi, smiling as peacefully as ever.]
Please do shut up, Steve. This discussion is taking us nowhere. What's done is done. The man is dead. Let's focus on the future, shall we?
