WEEK 3: TRIAL

[dropoffs]

WEEK 3 TRIAL     36 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 fourth trial! Over the course of the next nine hours, characters will have the opportunity to discuss, investigate and theorize about Margaret and Sora's murders. 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!

—Hm?

[ I will acknowledge MYSTERY THING and so Mizuki will bend down to check what it is. ]

[dropoffs]

[ They're drops around not in a pattern that matters, but scattered on the cinema stage ground floor seats facing the big screen. It's more that there might have been conflict here and blood flew sometimes. Same can be said for the blood drips found along the chairs along the close to entry stairway that Guy saw earlier.

I read the trauma in your words and I understand. You're rewarded with Dion will not find more under the seats in the cinema stage area. There is nothing up in the high ceiling.

Guy and Mizuki are not where Dion is, so everything Mizuki and Guy are seeing is different. Dion's at cinema stage that is the ground floor. Guy and Mizuki are at the back-most aisle at the top of the stairs.

As Guy checks to see if it's a crystal or whatever on the floor, he will find that it's a broken sphere-shaped item and shards next to it. Mizuki also looks down after ogling the suspiciously torn seats a little bit to find a partial footprint nearby. ]

[agamid]

[ thank you for this

okay, dion will move on from this area. are there seats on the other side of the stairs as well? is it like seats - stairs - seats - stairs - seats, or are there only seats in between the stairs?

if there are more seats he will move through those rows as well but i am getting the sense we're kind of wrapped up ]

Have you found anything else?

[mansplains]

There's more here, at the back. [ taking a picture of the broken sphere and splatters before i forget. he will then examine it a bit closer, do the shards look like they're from whatever broke? can he tell what it is? ]

[ if mizuki gets too close he will scream like a loser ]

[psynchroneyes]

[ Mizuki WILL get too close, thank you. ]

Wait, it's only partial... Ugh.

[ snapping a pic of that anyway! ]

[dropoffs]

[ (stairs) (all the seat rows in between) (stairs)
and the cinema stage ground floor has its ground seating rows.

Dion does the same thing as Guy, will see that there are blood speckles/droplets on the seats closest to entry way stairway, then will reach the top where the other two are with only those torn up seats worth looking at. He can see that the top are torn, with some more torn up than others.

Guy can get a closer look at evidence, but it kind of looks like a moon with craters. Mizuki gets photo. ]

[agamid]

[ okaay! ]

I think we've gleaned as much as we can.

[mansplains]

[ is there anything else, please have mercy on us ]

[ also yeah he's screaming and jumping away, that 1 i rolled lasts the whole trial baby ]

[psynchroneyes]

—?!

[ jesus, guy.

BUT YEAH WE ARE DONE..... ]

[dropoffs]

[ Nothing you can see with your eyes. Back into trial to deliver things... ]
