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. ]

[ As a quiet aside, rather than part of the larger discussion: ]

If you don't pick one, you're gonna get killed.

That’s not a guarantee.

Adora--

[ Taking a steeling breath before giving up on that actually and just letting her tail lash ]

Look how many people literally just told you they weren't going to play along!
adorabilities: (Anything ELSE to say?)

[personal profile] adorabilities 2021-05-15 05:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I know, I’m not stupid.

[most of the time]

But we figured we’d try, at least once.
hissterics: (465)

[personal profile] hissterics 2021-05-15 05:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Great -- you tried. And it didn't work. So give it up!
adorabilities: (Uh. Okay. I guess?)

[personal profile] adorabilities 2021-05-15 05:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[she should’ve figured this was gonna go poorly]

Yyyyeah.

You’re definitely not wrong.
hissterics: (497)

[personal profile] hissterics 2021-05-15 05:44 pm (UTC)(link)
This isn't the Princess Rebellion, Adora. It's the Horde.

Everyone is just waiting to put a knife in your back here. That's not going to change.

[she rubs her face.]

We tried. And I’m tired of our entire team dying.

[she is very clearly rethinking the weapon strategy]
hissterics: (395)

[personal profile] hissterics 2021-05-15 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[ THANK GOD

She's just going to lean on this moment of weakness ]


The weapon is a crapshoot if you end up in a room with someone you didn't coordinate with ahead of time. Don't come to the attic, period.
adorabilities: (Uhhh what's wrong with him.)

[personal profile] adorabilities 2021-05-15 06:14 pm (UTC)(link)
… okay.

[SHE HAD SUGGESTED IT, so good to know.]
crossmyheartandhope: (Are we drowning?)

[personal profile] crossmyheartandhope 2021-05-15 05:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Not if everyone goes along with it.
hissterics: (485)

[personal profile] hissterics 2021-05-15 05:30 pm (UTC)(link)
A bunch of people just said they wouldn't.

You go in empty-handed, you die!
crossmyheartandhope: (I wanna die with you)

[personal profile] crossmyheartandhope 2021-05-15 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
There's still time to change their minds.

We can do this.
hissterics: (235)

[ She'll save the brunt of her yelling for Adora because that's just how it goes.

Ignoring the continued optimism to instead ask: ]


What room are you picking?
crossmyheartandhope: (Always did what you were told)

[personal profile] crossmyheartandhope 2021-05-15 05:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Zhongli don't want us to say with a whole lot of people around, if we're going no weapon.
hissterics: (405)

[personal profile] hissterics 2021-05-15 06:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't come to the attic or the cloak room.
crossmyheartandhope: (Always did what you were told)

[personal profile] crossmyheartandhope 2021-05-15 06:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[Hesitates, then nods]

[Takes a shaky breath in]

If it makes you feel any better, we didn't get enough people to go along with it.

So - so the plan's off. We're probaly gonna go armed.

But, yeah. We'll steer clear.
hissterics: malagraphic (168)

[personal profile] hissterics 2021-05-15 06:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Good.

Don't get killed.

[ cuz they all have so much control over that ]
crossmyheartandhope: (Lord we are all cinders)

[personal profile] crossmyheartandhope 2021-05-15 06:34 pm (UTC)(link)
...yeah.

You, too, okay?
