Murder Mysterium - Day 1

Who: You!
Where: The Game Tower
When: TBD - Day 1

[ When you come to the Game Tower, you find yourself in front of a large mansion couched in between two large garden mazes, and though you're not told to step inside the mansion yet you're free to roam around the gardens. Encouraged, even—there are alcoves in the gardens with flowers wrapping around the gates that are to your unit's color, and upon entering them you'll be able to speak to your unitmates without fear of being overheard, as though there were some sort of soundproofing barrier. You may only enter your unit-specific alcove. There are also plenty of other non-unit specific alcoves for you to enter and converse with someone, but it won't be entirely private—these pockets don't have soundproofing.

The rules are already available on your phones, and in fact, that and the photos app are the only things you can access on your phone right now. Your powers are off too, although you were allowed to bring whatever items are ordinarily on your person—provided they aren't any weapons.

Incidentally, your clothes have just changed in general—they're now distinctly early 1900s Americana, ranging anywhere from the Roaring 20s (Great Gadsby party-chic, flapper dresses, vintage and mobster suits) to Golden Age 30s (Hollywood regency glamour) to WWII 40s (bomber jackets, furcoats, oversized winter coats, sweatervests).

The game starts now. ]

...

With how willing others are to attack certain units, even though we cannot choose properly, I'm not certain this is a realistic option.

Not accounting for those who have already chosen weapons.

If people picked already, they still got time to change their minds.

And even the teams that're stab-happy gotta know it'll be better for everyone in the long run if no one gets hurt.
vitainmorte: (trying to comfort me)

[personal profile] vitainmorte 2021-05-15 05:18 pm (UTC)(link)
How will you convince the units who are here who cannot afford to lose? They aren't like us. And I have no intention of letting Lilis die, either.
crossmyheartandhope: (Just the image of our maker?)

[personal profile] crossmyheartandhope 2021-05-15 05:23 pm (UTC)(link)
They're in it for the points, ain't they?

Everyone knows lives get more points than games, anyways.

[personal profile] vitainmorte 2021-05-15 05:28 pm (UTC)(link)
They may not see it that way. In addition, I don't think they would trust any of us enough to follow this.
crossmyheartandhope: (I wanna die with you)

[personal profile] crossmyheartandhope 2021-05-15 05:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, well - they're kinda sus, too, y'know?

But even they gotta be able to realize it's worth giving it a shot. We're looking at like 50 people biting it, versus a chance at no one.

[she is a little stiffer around Cypress but]

We figured we’d try at least this round.
vitainmorte: (I'm talkin to you)

[personal profile] vitainmorte 2021-05-15 05:17 pm (UTC)(link)
We'll have to see, then.

For Lilis' safety, I cannot promise anything.
adorabilities: (Uh. Okay. I guess?)

[personal profile] adorabilities 2021-05-15 05:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Well…

I thought that might happen, but if we can play without regrets then, I wanna try.

Miss Cypress, a moment of your time?
widenessofthesea: (when he left)

[personal profile] widenessofthesea 2021-05-15 05:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Since our units have an alliance, if you'd like to shelter with ours as an alibi, we would consider it strongly.

This would of course require both our units to either choose no weapon or coordinate on picking the same weapon, which I realize carries an amount of risk, but I felt it would be remiss not to propose.
vitainmorte: (No doubt is left inside my mind tonight)

[personal profile] vitainmorte 2021-05-15 05:27 pm (UTC)(link)
... we had actually considered the same thing. Choosing the same weapons, I mean. ... choosing no weapon comes with a high risk I'm not certain we're willing to take, but-- if we could assure safety together...
widenessofthesea: (that showed the darkness under it)

[personal profile] widenessofthesea 2021-05-15 05:29 pm (UTC)(link)
As long as we're all fine with injury, but I think we've all got a bit of steel to us at this point.

It's probably safer to write down preferences for weapons and locations rather than say them aloud, though, if you have them.
vitainmorte: (Achilles achilles)

[personal profile] vitainmorte 2021-05-15 05:38 pm (UTC)(link)
... of course.

[ And she always has a sketchbook with her, anyway.

quickly writing down "gun" and "garage" to hand to her. ]
widenessofthesea: (and every time god laughs at this)

[personal profile] widenessofthesea 2021-05-15 05:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[ looks at the paper, and nods, crisply. ]

I think we have a unitmate who'd prefer a different weapon, but she's already the weapon she wants to see in the world.

Thank you.
vitainmorte: (it's a pointless resistance for you.)

[personal profile] vitainmorte 2021-05-15 05:45 pm (UTC)(link)
It is simply the first that came to mind.

Of course. See you soon.
