Murder Mysterium - Night 2, Master Bedroom

[ LILIS and PEP!PEP! enter.

The master bedroom is dominated by gilt. From the curling handles of the double doors-- each of them fashioned in a cobra’s likeness-- to the glimmering mural painted above the bed of a city shining above dark water, gold shines everywhere. The gaudy effect is only offset by contrast of the deep black used on most every large item of furniture and every otherwise empty space: the velvet bedspread, the scalloped headboard, each of the three un-muraled walls. Exploring the chest of drawers and armoire yields fancy dress attire to be purloined, provided you don’t mind looking like you were invited to a gatsby theme party by someone with a limited grasp of historical accuracy.

Beyond the usual decor of the room, a number of baseball bats, maces, hammers, and other blunted weapons are strewn about on the floor—easily within access for anyone who wants to pull the weapons out and fight.

Both units will find the weapons fairly easy to wield—it is their selection of weapon, after all. They're also aware that, by the end of the night, they'll probably end up hurting themselves on these. ]

[ a,

pause, eyes wide. ]

-- where is Bad End?

[He's a little concerned too, honestly.]

Did something happen to them, do you think?
vitainmorte: (no one asked for your thoughts) (You asked for my counsel)

[personal profile] vitainmorte 2021-05-16 07:46 pm (UTC)(link)
They wouldn't have gone back on their word...

--Shit-- [also glancing around HATE WHEN A PLAN GOES IMMEDIATELY WRONG]

[ worried, clearly.

but goes to sit on the bed. ]

They had to have picked the same thing. There's no way they wouldn't have.

They do like ta stick ta their guns. If we're both here that means someone else picked this room 'n they got paired off...?

[personal profile] runawayprince 2021-05-16 08:03 pm (UTC)(link)
No, but something must have either changed their mind or something else came up.
vitainmorte: (no one asked for your thoughts) (You asked for my counsel)

[personal profile] vitainmorte 2021-05-16 08:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Can there be two of the same room?
vitainmorte: (trying to comfort me)

[personal profile] vitainmorte 2021-05-16 08:03 pm (UTC)(link)
No. No, I don't think so. They wouldn't have swapped without saying anything.
worldlyafflictions: (ch012pg11p1)

[personal profile] worldlyafflictions 2021-05-16 08:11 pm (UTC)(link)
That's what I dunno either--if somebody picks a room with more than one unit in it, they can't hurt every unit unless they have the explosive, so--how would they get one unit without witnesses ta have a trial otherwise, right?

No, they wouldn't have, but it still feels like they did. What else are we supposed to think?
vitainmorte: (Achilles achilles)

[personal profile] vitainmorte 2021-05-16 08:23 pm (UTC)(link)
That this place did something to mess things up.
vitainmorte: (No doubt is left inside my mind tonight)

[personal profile] vitainmorte 2021-05-16 08:24 pm (UTC)(link)
... if there can't be witnesses, there has to be a limit on units per room, then.
worldlyafflictions: (ch090pg20p1b)

[personal profile] worldlyafflictions 2021-05-16 08:26 pm (UTC)(link)
But is it just a room limit or are they off I dunno, killing or dying--damn it!!
vitainmorte: (You are absent of cause)

[personal profile] vitainmorte 2021-05-16 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
We'll find out soon, I guess.
quickpersuader: (turns into a cloud)

[Looking around, observing the various weapons strewn about and listening to the discussion about BAD END.]

If there's a limit to how many units can enter a room together, and this place has some kind of trick to it... putting extra units into separate rooms, or that sort of thing - that could make solving the murders even harder during the trials. Even if we talk about agreements made beforehand, if the house itself is setting us up to make it look like those agreements weren't honored, people will be more suspicious.

[Kicks clubs and bats and things out of the way--cursing when he inevitably stubs a toe. LAYS DOWN.]

Hateful. I hate this. Stop punishing me for trying.

[ baby...

Pets his hair, gently ]

quickpersuader: (Blown by)

[personal profile] quickpersuader 2021-05-16 08:55 pm (UTC)(link)
It can't be helped that the games will try to make things even more difficult for us wherever they can. You did the best you could with the information you had.

Besides, I'd rather see if we can push the limits of the game than meekly agree to play along with the rules. If we need to make apologies for it later, that's just how it is.

[personal profile] worldlyafflictions 2021-05-16 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
If bad end died or had ta kill someone 'cause of this I'm gonna be pissed...

[Holds his phone up and takes a pic of the ceiling mural]

[personal profile] runawayprince 2021-05-16 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
True. Like separate us on purpose or something. What about Pep? were they not supposed to group with us?
runawayprince: (18)

[personal profile] runawayprince 2021-05-16 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[Shit is right. He doesn't know how to make of this.]

Is Luna with you guys or is it just you?

[If she isn't that might be easier in some ways. He still wants to look out for them though.]
runawayprince: (2)

[personal profile] runawayprince 2021-05-16 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Good point. I don't really think Bad End are the type, so that kind of puts a wrench in things if that's the idea this place is going for.
worldlyafflictions: (fanart050)

[personal profile] worldlyafflictions 2021-05-16 09:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Haven't seen her. Doesn't mean she couldn't be lost in the maze I guess, but. [shrug]

Yeah, I guess. Figured I'd ask. So, what do you think happened with Bad End? They were supposed to be here, right?
