Murder Mysterium - Day 5
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. ]

[She shakes her head.]
It's nothing. I'm just thinking.
You know, when a popular movement fails, people remember it. They're bitter, and they're angry, and they feel like they were made to be fools. And then... it gets so very much harder for them to trust in that hope again.

I'm afraid that we've seen what we wanted, and we're twisting the facts to make them fit. There's so much we're simply ignoring, when half the clues point exactly the opposite way - just two 'killers', and the victims know exactly who they are. And then there's the matter of the bomb in your room. Nothing's accounted for that.

I ... want to ask them to switch and for us to cover Avante since it seems more likely that our group and Bad End would be considered responsible, if nothing else. That way we could have the highest chance of undoing the situation. But, everyone is pretty firmly set...
I mean, maybe we are all guilty, but that doesn't mean that the rules of the game consider it that.
I also don't know... like if it was the bomb that came from our room but it wasn't our personal bomb, who is the game going to consider guilty?
I like their optimism, but... maybe a little too convinced.

And that's all that matters. What they intended. Not what we might make of it.
There's nothing the matter with optimism, so long as it doesn't become self-delusion. If we're letting it blind us to the reality of the situation - I can't still call that a good thing.
