WEEK 0 TRIAL     45 CREW ACTIVE

 

ALL CREW MEMBERS, PLEASE REPORT TO THE CONFERENCE HALL AT 1200 HOURS. REPEAT, ALL CREW MEMBERS REPORT TO THE CONFERENCE HALL AT 1200 HOURS.

I.R.I.S. SYSTEMS ARE UPDATING TO ALLOW SHIP AND CONCOURSE-WIDE ACCESS AT THIS TIME IN PREPARATION FOR INVESTIGATION AND RESOLUTION OF THE EVENTS FROM THURSDAY EVENING AND FRIDAY MORNING.

ATTENDANCE IS MANDATORY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING AND COOPERATION.

Good morning, junior crew. With the heavy news of last night carrying into Saturday morning, things are incredibly quiet around the CSS Eudora. You may carry on with your personal business during the morning, but come 11:00, a soothing voice will cut into the air and announce that at 12:00 everyone must report to "the Conference Hall." Strange, however, that it's not on the map.

Never fear, your I.R.I.S. will automatically project a small beam of warm, orange light on the ground, directing you towards a large gated lift that has risen from the floor by the mess hall. Come 11:50, if you aren't on the lift, you will certainly find yourself moving there physically whether you intend it or not. The lift is capable of carrying every occupant of the Eudora to a sublevel that leads towards the mentioned Conference Hall.

The enormous hall opens up past two large, double doors with the word EUDORA printed over it. Within, a lengthy monitor sprawls across the entirety of it, displaying Thursday night's victims profiles along with a large map of the Eudora herself. With plush, dark seats in rows and a long table at the head of the room where four members of your senior crew await, it is clear what exactly this space is for, especially as the words TRIAL IN SESSION appear on the monitor and an ominous-looking countdown:
09:00:00

Welcome to your first trial! Over the course of the next nine hours, characters will have the opportunity to discuss, investigate and theorize about Dahut's murder. Characters will have time to examine the body of the victim and explore relevant locations.

There will be a mod-tag break between 4 PM EST / 1 PM PST to 5 PM EST / 2 PM PST. While the trial may continue and players can tag each other, mod-led threads such as questions and investigations will be on hold.

Finally, we have a voting page for characters to vote on the culprit! Please be sure that your vote is in by the time trial finishes at 9 PM EST / 6 PM PST, unless you've spoken with the mods previously, as we'll begin tallying votes on the dot. Voting is mandatory for Spacecoast, acting as our weekly activity check in this game.

Good luck!

I don't go in a big giant group...

[discomfort]

I would recommend it. You can clean each other's backs.

[inequals]

That's way too comfortable for the amount of time I've known you guys!

[discomfort]

I feel as if we have spent enough time bonding to get over any shyness.

[inequals]

Is this offering...

Sorry, I'll pass. I won't even let Greg do it.

[ I swear it's not because of the bug arm. ]

[verminous]

['well, thanks, i... guess?']

[discomfort]

Well, if you ever change your mind. It is part of my normal job.

[ he takes in the knowledge she is not bug racist ]

[polliwog]

Oh! I can clean your back next time, Owner.

[ going in a group to the showers is fine actually ]

[discomfort]

Sidon-sama... thank you! I will do the same for you.

[ ....

[tombtaker]

[ wow ............. good for them. ]

[discomfort]

[ you can come too..... ]

[satisficing]

Yes, well, there is only so much bathroom for all of us. I think most of us thought it would be more quiet.

...But we were wrong.

[inequals]

Your minds melded for the super-shower......

[pyromance]

[ she really just says things. ]

[inequals]

[ Someone has to. ]

[satisficing]

Only one of us was showering!

[naeddre]

[was it the fish]

[inequals]

Was it Dondon?

[inquired]

Were you all assisting....?


[ lol ]

[riverbeans]

Sounds like you had a nice chat after the initial freakout, at least? Heard you wanted a laboratory.

[satisficing]

We decided not to induce excessive panicking.

[Sidelong look at Todo. You know.]

I was just answering a question asked of me. Who... told you this?

[Now looking at everyone who had been in the bathroom with them.]

[riverbeans]

C'mon, are you worried that someone leaked private bathroom details?

[polliwog]

[ what is going on in this conversation! ]

[satisficing]

[DON'T LOOK THEY'RE REALIZED YOU MIGHT BE CONSIDERED PERPETUALLY NAKED]

[drymonster]

We just happened to be there at the same time!

[ he spent like 20 minutes on his nighttime skincare routine so there was a lot of time for overlap ]
