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 |

I don't know. It's bittersweet, I think. I spent my entire life... chasing freedom and when it's presented to me like this - I'm not sure if I want it. It doesn't feel real to me, knowing what I know.
It's just another cage, but.
Bigby is here. Lara is here. Veronica is here. Jack is here. Good people are here. I can't condemn ending their existences because of my own trauma.

Elizabeth I'm so, so, so, sorry. It should've never been like this. You don't deserve this.
What do we do, Elizabeth? If we save you, what do we do? Condemn staff members to your state and then decides who leaves?
We can't stay here forever. I've already asked.

That is an answer you must discuss with the others. I learned a long time ago that we are responsible for the choices we make and how it affects others. My actions brought on my own demise and I'm okay with this.
I need you to get Alice, Shijima, Angel and the others to safety. For me.

I failed you. We both did.
[Give him a moment.]
I can, but if we get everyone out, that means that you'll be deleted. To keep you safe, I need to pick and choose. Only five people can go out, including me.
There's no way to rewrite the code in Judy for that, is there?

I'm not a programmer. Jack may know more than me. I believe there's always another way to look at things. Variables, you know.

I don't remember much from my life but I know that I wasn't happy. I don't think I had many people on my side. I don't blame them. So to have something like these connections is something I almost feel like I don't deserve.
At this point, it doesn't even seem like I may even have a family left, depending on what everyone is saying. Maybe having a family here is something to be grateful for.
[Flora...Luke...Katrielle...his father. God, his father, how is he not going to see his father again...?]
Anyways, I'll ask Jack. Maybe we can do something. Make it so everyone can leave. We'll do what we can.
