WEEK 1: TRIAL

[dropoffs]

WEEK 1 TRIAL     43 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 an enormous lift stationed by the mess hall. Come 11:50, if you aren't on the lift, you will certianly 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 ramp 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

DE̶ÇO͝MḾIƧ̸S͢IO̵ИED͞

Welcome to your second trial! Over the course of the next nine hours, characters will have the opportunity to discuss, investigate and theorize about Viktor'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!

[THE WAY EUNHYUK WAS LIKE I WILL KEEP PEOPLE ON TRACK AND THIS IS NOW HAPPENING]

[inequals]

[ That's what you get for being an omega. ]

[naeddre]

[samhyuk winchester you have failed me for the last time]

[inquired]

[ pats his back ]

[frotag]

[ POINTEDLY LOOKS AWAY NOW THAT THE EUPHORIC HIGH OF LITERAL SHITPOSTING HAS RUN ITS COURSE ]

[naeddre]

[oh my god come here you actually]

He has a hole in his head, there are screws in his lower back and his hand was crushed. Talk about that instead of whatever it is you're talking about right now.

[inquired]

Thank you.

[ but also like, concerned look? there's a brief nonverbal communication eyebrow raise here. ]

We can at least begin to consider what kind of weapon might have caused that sort of damage.

[solesuccess]

...for what it's worth, the screws are supposed to be there. So we can worry about that part less.

[inquired]

[ nods... ]

The crushed hand and what was ostensibly the killing blow. We will have to wait for a more thorough report, but it is a start.

[solesuccess]

Yeah. Throné'll be thorough and then we can go from there.

[frotag]

[ he looks confused for a sec, but then nods with a surprising amount of understanding. ]

Probably as spinal support, yeah? Given his condition.

[solesuccess]

Yeah. He told me once about how doctors put screws in his spine and that's why he made a brace for himself years ago.

[naeddre]

[she's fine she just doesn't want to hear you guys scream about poop anymore]

[pathematic]

[CLOSES EYES]

I'm sorry.

[GRIEF!!!!! looking around the crowd, hi guys. no more pooping. looks over at evidence. HELP. DID WE LOOK AT EVIDENCE YET? DID SOMEONE CALL DIBS ON IT]

Did anyone look at the piece of metal on the table yet?

[discomfort]

Not yet, no. That's a good idea.

[inquired]

[ nods ]

Mm. Let's check it twice, as well - and if the others bring back the robot creature, it may bear comparing to that.

[teenrebellion]

I think everyone just took it as another sign to check out the food court first?

[pathematic]

[help he can't say anything because he was everyone

glances over as sheba and the others,]

Looks like they're back. They might recognize the panel.

[polliwog]

I think the week's events are wearing on people. [ sometimes you just go insane for 3 hours don't worry about it. ] Why don't you go ahead and take a look at it to get us back on track, Eunhyuk?

[pathematic]

Alright.

[he nods

sees spoon mention it in disco

he will let dion see it first]

[agamid]

[ me cutting ahead of you for the second time....... ]

[ravenry]

I don't think anyone has said they'd look at it yet.

[pathematic]

Dion just went to examine it.

[doesn't think that this is a bad idea even though dion is fantasy french]

metal panel update

[agamid]

It's from the hostile robot, and it doesn't show any evidence of forced entry, which means that whoever pried it open had a tool with which to undo the screws.

[ HE KNOWS WHAT A SCREW IS! ]

[frotag]

[ ok yes for real he sobers up now. ]

...Right. Thanks for your hard work, Necchan.
