Rise and shine, Camp Gatonina.

With yesterday's announcement weighting on your mind, you are left to your own devices for the entirety of the morning. The 7:00 AM bugle call will announce breakfast as usual, and those who still manage to retain an appetite under the current circumstances are free to make their way over to the mess hall in order to grab a bite.

It is not until 12:00 PM that something changes. Coming as a surprise to none, given your past experiences, your body will move of its own accord towards the Mess Hall. You are powerless to resist. The Mess Hall doors will lock once everyone is inside, and for some reason — your vision will momentarily blur before everything snaps back into focus.

Winter Wizard, Purple Heart and Black Shadows will be seated at a table by the enclosed bulletin board. Their bunnies will be beside them, dressed impeccably. They share a look, visibly uncomfortable, before they rise from their seats.

"So it seems one of your own has been killed. Now's the time to work together and find the responsible party."

"Nine hours remain to discuss and locate. Still have time."

"We'll help you as much as we can from our end, too, so... Good luck."

Well, you know the drill by now.

Hello, everyone, and welcome to the third trial!

We'll go over a few notes briefly as we will be playing this trial a bit differently than other games.

While there was a mini-investigation on Friday, today is the day participants can really dive in to investigate areas in the game setting, check over the body and review evidence that they find! Please see the toplevels in this post for more information. To help with the ease of the trial and for IC mechanics, only one location may be visited at a time. One of your NPCs will also be accompanying you on these visits.

Most importantly, before the trial is over, please place your character's vote over on the voting page. Voting will close at 9pm EST/6pm PST, and will serve as our activity check for the week, so please be sure you get your vote in before it ends unless you have contacted us previously. Please also be sure to read the voting page carefully.

[ his reactions are a little sluggish, but he'll shake his head. ]

I'm fine; don't worry about it.
shixiong: of me finally accepting (70)

[personal profile] shixiong 2020-06-27 05:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[ hm.

yin yu lifts his hand with all the speed and dexterity of someone trained in all of the martial arts you can shake a stick at, as if he's going to strike him right between the eyes with a chop.


of course he's actually going to just very gently bop him on the forehead if it hits but that depends on giyuu's reaction time huh ]

[ giyuu would normally be able to dodge that no problem and since it's instinct on some level, he does move out of the way, but not completely and yin yu will end up bopping him on the edge of his eye.

he doesn't even say anything to that?? he just??? hello????
]
shixiong: that i deserve forgetting (72)

[personal profile] shixiong 2020-06-27 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
When we sparred last week, I was impressed by your speed and reflexes. You're quite young, but very skilled. [ he says, by way of explanation. yin yu gives a brief apologetic duck of his head for the action itself, pulling his hand back. ]

Have you not been sleeping? [ sir. ]

[personal profile] baori 2020-06-27 05:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[ thanks for the random compliment???

but he also...hesitates more so than he would normally even when he's thinking of what he can say.
]

Some days I find it hard to sleep.
shixiong: my stomach's sick (60)

[personal profile] shixiong 2020-06-27 05:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ..... raises eyebrows. he's not masked today so you are treated to his neutral expression.

the face says "please continue explaining".

(teacher voice) i'll wait ]
baori: (pic#13921679)

[personal profile] baori 2020-06-27 05:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[ neutral expression meet "i'm dead tired" expression.

...

but ultimately, he'll shake his head.
]

It's nothing to be concerned about while there is a murderer to catch. [ which sounds like he's deflecting so have a treat?? ] ...I'll explain more after we're done here. Come find me.
shixiong: or elaborating upon my mediocrity? (68)

[personal profile] shixiong 2020-06-27 05:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[ he wins!

a beat, but. ]
...alright. [ he'll acquiesce with a nod! we'll talk later. ]

baori: (pic#13969059)

[personal profile] baori 2020-06-27 05:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[ a mutual nod.

they can have another old man talk later. it'll be fine.

[personal profile] overruns 2020-06-27 05:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[ he looks briefly concerned, but nods along to this. ] I'll confirm that it doesn't have anything to do with what's going on here.
shixiong: some faster than the others (86)

[personal profile] shixiong 2020-06-27 05:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[ nod nod. just gotta cross every t and dot every i, dimitri! ]
overruns: (14)

[personal profile] overruns 2020-06-27 05:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[ he answers with a little bow of his head. ] I appreciate your attentiveness all the same, Yin Yu.
shixiong: that i'll be alone forever (71)

[personal profile] shixiong 2020-06-27 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course, my lord. [ besides they gotta look after their lil island crew, considering.

someone just tuck giyuu and shinobu into bed for 24 hours ]

]

Thank you, Dimitri.

[ there's so much to be worried about, please ]

It's nothing. We have to eliminate false leads as necessary if we want to avoid making the same mistakes as last week.

[personal profile] baori 2020-06-27 05:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[ giyuu is 45% fine.....or like 30%. it depends on the day. ]

Agreed. We need to only focus on what the we can prove.
