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. ]

If you are willing, we would be happy to coordinate something. What did you have in mind?

Cloak Room. Would you rather we meet there or not?
caniscorde: (I'm gonna break break break)

That would work for us.

Bring something sharp.

I assume no one being armed is not actually reassuring for you and yours?

[ He's not saying 'no', but he does want to see if he's got the right read on why he's being asked to bring a weapon as opposed to none. ]

[ a long pause. ]

... though many of us would not wish to harm others, we have no reason to trust many of these units when our predecessors were apparently more than happy to cause carnage, and there are those who remember and are likely to retaliate based on that.

Mutual injury is preferable to death, but if you insist on no weaponry, I can attempt to convince the others.

It's fine. I can understand that; I just wanted to know if my read on this was correct enough.

... I understand that besides my tie with Crane, the rest of you don't have many reasons to trust me or my unit. If mutual injury is more trustworthy than the risk of going unarmed, then I can deal with it. I suppose the injury in of itself can be an alibi.

It would be ample proof, at least.

It would also give you some measure of defense, in some way, should we be greeted with another unit. Or at least perhaps a chance at it.

I can only hope it doesn't become weird like that, but ... well, that's how it goes here sometimes.

See you tonight, then?

See you tonight.
