Murder Mysterium - Day 4

[idolpro]

Who: You!
Where: The Game Tower
When: TBD - Day 2

[ 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. ]

.... well, on paper, I guess. The real reason is just... that I wanted to protect Nageki in Hitori-- sorry, "Khonsu's" stead. I understand the feeling of wanting to protect someone so much that you would do anything.

[agentgymstudent]

[And his expression....]

[Shudders. Something hard to read, but the look in his gaxe is piercing. Extremely intense, especially for his apparent age.]

Do you? [The question, however, is gentle.]

[stayathome]

... the whole reason I'm here in the first place is to bring my sister back. [ he like. hasn't even told this to HER, so saying it now is kind of awkward but this guy is looking at him weirdly so he feels? obligated to? for some reason?? ]

If you're afraid we're going to betray you, I get that. It's hard to trust anyone here, and there's really little reason for outsiders to protect each other... so all I can do is ask you to trust me anyways.

[agentgymstudent]

[There is a long, long, LONG stare.]

[Then he blinks and, well, he's not very expressive, but at least its not laser intensity anymore.]

I can understand that. A friend got brought down with me. She didn't deserve that.

I...need to talk with the others.

Really though, we're bottom two anyway. We're already working to shake up the rankings right now.

[stayathome]

Technically... I don't think I have to win this game to get my wish, I'm on another contract. But winning it will put me in "better standing".

For now I just want to fulfill the promise I made.

[agentgymstudent]

...heh.

You took that deal too?

Looking at the points, when they made the offer....well, it takes longer, but it'd be worth it, right? Mostly only been trying at all for the sake of those still on the original deal.

[stayathome]

Money really stresses me out..... it will take longer, but I'm used to being in debt so it's fine. I'll put up with it.

[agentgymstudent]

Its more the time frame.

Plus....well, I have other people here to consider. They don't want her to die either.

So, gotta do what's more likely to work.

[stayathome]

I'm not sure that my team is all that concerned with the competition..... [ they have uh. 50 points, last he checked. ]

Who's "her"?

[agentgymstudent]

....that is a good point.

My friend.

[stayathome]

[ gonna take that vagueness to mean "don't ask me anymore" ]

Well I hope that you manage to save her.

[agentgymstudent]

[Listen, admitting he wanted to save his sister got he's trying to save his friend, and that's pretty huge without a lot more to back up the olive branch.]

That's the hope.
