Murder Mysterium - Day 5

[idolpro]

Who: You!
Where: The Game Tower
When: TBD - Day 5

[ When morning comes, you find yourselves more than freed from your rooms—the mansion collapses behind the last person leaving, completely and utterly demolished. There might be a couple rooms left standing, but . . . you certainly can't have a murder mystery game like this.

The game isn't quite over yet, though.

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.

Its water's stopped, though rather than any stillness in water you can instead see . . .

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. ]

Everyone! Everyone attention! [For those who haven't noticed Pink and Rye vibrating.]

We asked if we're all the killers and the picture seems like its a yes. We're all guilty.

There are seven dead teams. Alcheme and Future is Now are assured revivals from earlier. It's the other five in question.

If we all killed Avante and Lilis, that means we're all serial killers.

If we all vote no one, if we all get away-

We might be able to revive everyone.

[nothingtomourn]

[This is like the most alive he's looked this entire time.]

[crossmyheartandhope]

So then - all we gotta do is make sure everyone's covered... right?

[protectshisown]

-yes!

We should have that all confirmed, in case they ask before we can talk about it.

I assume Heart has Avante covered?

[crossmyheartandhope]

Yeah. We got Avante. If - if they let us pick.

[stayathome]

[ ... okay but ]

Are you alright? Do you need to sit down? .... I think you should sit down.

[ this is also @ pink

... in fact this may be especially @ pink ]

[protectshisown]

Listen, if this fails, then I won't be all right, but right now, I'm on a high and going with it.

[stayathome]

[ ... oh. ]

Really I think you should sit down now before you get hurt.

[worldlyafflictions]

I really need ta sit.

[stayathome]

I'd make you some tea, but....

[ they only have um. corpse water? and garden hedges? ]

[widenessofthesea]

...huh.

[scattershot]

Have we heard anything yet from LiliS?

[She's hopeful, yes, but: someone was raised as a scholar. The dataset looks promising, but it's incomplete.]

[protectshisown]

I haven't asked LiliS anything yet. Has anyone else?

I'll ask them the same.

[scattershot]

That's a good idea. So far as it's possible, we should try to ask them all the same questions. They probably won't have the same images, but mayhap they have enough repeated themes we can check for an overlap.

[irregular]

How the fuck does that work?

[protectshisown]

We all had bombs.

When teams are together with a bomb, they send them away and become accomplices. If we're all guilty, and it seems like Avante says we all are, then we're all accomplices. If Lilis is the same, we are all killing accomplices who have killed more than one team.

Which makes us serial killers if we get away with it.

And we each get a revival.

[!!]

S-

[nothingtomourn]

[...But then he stops himself.

...]

[nothingtomourn]

...sea.Di. Gryphon... wanted to help sea.Di.

If we can revive a unit... it should go to sea.Di.

[agentgymstudent]

I got rainbow hands on a black background for all guilty.

Which might mean 'we all had a hand in it' or....honestly, its bright in the focus.

Someone else should ask a confirming question.

[revolutionista]

[That's SUCH a ridiculous plan.








She can't help liking it, but damn if she'll admit to it.]

Embracing the roles we were given instead of struggling in moral anguish, huh?

[protectshisown]

If the bad role gets you the good end, certainly worth it.

[bofa]

Oh noooo this is going to cause so many tangles...

[protectshisown]

It should actually be straight forward.
