Murder Mysterium - Day 3

Who: You!
Where: The Game Tower
When: TBD - Day 3

[ When morning comes, you find yourselves more than freed from your rooms—you're completely kicked out of the mansion. You may access the twin garden mazes, 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. Players should comment to relevant private threads that are being eavesdropped.

But before you run off to discuss, you'll want to gather around the fountain (mind the executed bodies). Its water's stopped, though rather than any stillness in water you can instead see . . . murder.

The details of each murder, as well as the rules, are 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. ]

I mean, I ain't surprised it's a temp team that got voted out round one. That's all I'm saying.

I wouldn't be surprised if they did it. If they had nobody to meet up with, or even to coordinate with, and felt they had to go armed simply for self-defense... that would be all it took. That and a chance meeting, and ill-fortune.

[personal profile] crossmyheartandhope 2021-05-16 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Even we went armed, and we were the ones who were trying to get people to take it easy.

Whoever does whatever, it's all chance anyways.
scattershot: (✶ a hopeless race)

[personal profile] scattershot 2021-05-16 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Precisely. What we might have intended has nothing to do with it.

Forget everything I said. I don't actually want to solve their stupid mystery. The only thing that matters is protecting who we can.
scattershot: (✶ the emperor's wont)

[personal profile] scattershot 2021-05-16 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[She nods.]

I almost forgot who was truly responsible. I won't let that happen again.

[Hesitates, then reaches out and offers his hand]

...c'mere. Let's go sit down for a few.
scattershot: (✶ cradle)

[personal profile] scattershot 2021-05-16 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's Alisaie's turn to hesitate for a moment, then she cautiously takes his hand.]

Where do you wish to go?
crossmyheartandhope: (Are we crying?)

[personal profile] crossmyheartandhope 2021-05-16 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I dunno. There's gotta be a bench in this maze somewhere, right?

I got a couple snacks on me. We could take five.
scattershot: (✶ beyond the unknown)

[personal profile] scattershot 2021-05-17 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
That's not a bad idea. We'll think far clearer if we decompress a little.
crossmyheartandhope: (Lord we are all cinders)

[personal profile] crossmyheartandhope 2021-05-17 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. So...?

[Takes a step toward the way out of the fountain alcove]
scattershot: (✶ four-fold knowing)

[personal profile] scattershot 2021-05-17 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
[She follows.]

It's a shame. This would be a nice place to visit, had we been brought here for any reason aside from this.
crossmyheartandhope: (Just shine a light into the wreckage)

[personal profile] crossmyheartandhope 2021-05-17 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
[Poking into the next alcove over]

Yeah, well.

We don't really get nice stuff for nothing. So.
scattershot: (✶ safety in numbers)

[personal profile] scattershot 2021-05-17 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
I presume someone appreciates the irony, but it's lost on me. Do you think anyone can sit here?
crossmyheartandhope: (So far away away)

[personal profile] crossmyheartandhope 2021-05-17 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
They ain't stopping us, right?

[There's no bench, but he just plops himself down on the ground]
scattershot: (✶ game theory)

[personal profile] scattershot 2021-05-17 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
[The ground is fine with her.]

What do you think we should ask? I don't care about the mystery, but if the missing units can send us pictures, they have to be in some sort of condition to do so no matter what we saw.
crossmyheartandhope: (Are we drowning?)

[personal profile] crossmyheartandhope 2021-05-17 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... yeah. I guess so.

[Digs in one of his super hero belt pouches and comes out with a pack of Pretz, which he passes her way]
scattershot: (✶ tomorrow and tomorrow)

[personal profile] scattershot 2021-05-17 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
[Huh.

[She turns the box over in her hands.]

What is this? Are they biscuits?
crossmyheartandhope: (Cast from trees)

[personal profile] crossmyheartandhope 2021-05-17 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
Naw, they're like salty snack sticks. These ones're salad flavor.
