GAME 2 - DAY 1

[ You stir awake on the cold floor, and find yourself in a REALLY CROWDED dressing room with some other people. They may be strangers, they may be people you know, but then you wonder, where are you?

Then it hits you. The last thing that happened before waking up was that you found a message in a bottle. You read the note, blinked once, and someone behind you hit you in the head. You fell to the floor, but that was it. That was all you remember. You must have passed out, and now you're here. Wherever here is.

The room is what it is. It seems to have been a murder scene. Who was murdered, no one knows. Try not to destroy the crime scene, would you? There's only a couple of drops of blood by the outline - and that's a really huge outline, the guy must be at least 6 feet tall. A tile from the floor is missing. Well, whatever. Is that really important? (No, it's not! Not at the moment, anyway…) What may be of importance (?!?!?!?!) is the note written in lipstick on the mirror. It reads: MAKE FRIENDS.

If you exit the dressing room, you'll find yourself in a hallway. There's another room next to the one you came from, but it's locked. There's some noise coming from inside, though… If you put your ear to the door, you may hear a possibly familiar song. But you might even check that out later, because right on the wall in front of you hang twelve square mirrors - about twelve inches in length, and eight in width. Each mirror will reflect only one specific person, no matter how many people are standing in front of it. (Eg. if Person A stands in front of Mirror A, he'll see himself. If he stands in front of Mirror B, he won't see any reflection at all.)

Upon looking at your mirror, you'll find someone behind you. Before you could even react, you hear the words "find wolves, keep secrets" whispered in your ear like an itchy and spine tingling thing. If you look back, the beautiful creature is gone. Its reflection is gone, too.

And when the badger disappears, you'll feel something heavy in your pocket. Pull it out, and you get a Nokia 3210. It's a pretty bulky and heavy device, but hey. It's a cellphone. Although… there are only four features to the phone: Rules, Vote, Calculator, and Snake.

If you check out the vote feature, you'll find a list of names. It seems you can only choose just one pair of names. Once someone votes on it, the bar right below their name grows longer, and you can see how many people voted on it. Everyone should know who their partner is from this list alone.

Welcome to (one part of) the Sunshine Coliseum! The broom closet is locked, and so is the room with the red light. Don't go there, Roxanne. If you head to the stage, you can play with the instruments. Feel free to chill out in the audience area. The chairs are very comfortable to sit on. There isn't much to do, but one should be crafty enough to find means of entertainment. This is game, after all.

Lastly, YOU HAVE NO MONEY TO BUY ANYTHING IN THE VENDING MACHINE. (It has soda and potato chips, by the way. Please don't steal anything...! Or you can. You know. Whatever. It's not like there are cops around!) ]

(SUSPICION POLL)

---

CLUE
* only one member of each team may vote, so please coordinate with your partners!

Schedule:
[ 00 EST 18 April: Clue/Activity!!

00 EST 19 April: Suspicion poll comes to an end and Ousting poll gets put up.

00 EST 20 April: Ousting poll draws to a close. A new day begins, with two teams out of the game. ]


For any team posts or if your character(s) will be talking to another team in private, please remember to filter the post and add [personal profile] protoshepherd to it! Characters will have whatever they had on them, or if they have any pets, then they can have those, too.

Regarding pets/items: SURE GO AHEAD AND HAVE YOUR CHARACTER BRING THEM. If it's a magical item, then it will NOT work.

Hurting other characters is fine, but please ping @sytry on plurk if and when your character tries to kill somebody, or beat them up senseless. There will be an IC punishment for something like this, and they also can't kill anybody, so!!!

Y-your horse...? [He gasps and looks downtrodden.]

I'm not staking claim to anything... I'm just making friends, pal! A-and what do you mean, distance? Little Maggey and me are like peas and pod, it's too cruel to separate us!

How presumptuous, to think it your right to give any creature you find a name simply because you stumbled upon it! I would prefer that the same was not done to me, for I am certainly not "pal"!

[And now she's going to try butting right past him! Though she's kind of tall for a lady, heels and all, she's...not really that physically imposing overall, but she is awfully determined if nothing else. Also she's got that staff she's waving around; that maybe helps a little?] Back! I have no qualms in separating a would-be thief from what is mine!

So, am I to take this as a confession from you? Has this been an attempt to steal this woman's horse?

[He's not going to actually put up resistance as she butts past him, he just starts moping. First he looks at the judge.]

Wh-what?! No way pal, I haven't been stealing anything! [And then he looks back at the green girl.] And Little Maggey... She likes that name, I just know it!! The two of us, we're as thick as thieves already! ...E-Except without the thief part!!

So not only are you a thief, you're delusional as well. [ There's a shift in tone as his speech almost becomes condescending. ] All you are doing at this time is implicating yourself.

It sounded quite like a confession. [She takes her horse's reins and, in a huff, leads it a couple of steps further away from Gumshoe--but certainly not far enough that she can't keep yelling at him.] How uncouth, to insist on a false name even once you've been caught and halted! Have some measure of shame!

I would suggest keeping an eye on this one. If he's capable of stooping to such heinous acts this early on, there's no telling what he'd do in the future.

[He frowns and slumps under these words, but he still manages to protest. For his new horsey friend.]

H-hey, I haven't done anything! And I can't think of a truer name for this horse... just look at her eyes! Those're the eyes of a Maggey, pal!!
curedham: (get down ladies you got nothing to lose!)

Certainly, though I pray this company is not long shared, circumstances considered... But I must express my gratitude for your intervention! It pleases me to see the spirit of justice is ever-vigilant, despite my being delayed.

[personal profile] notjustanytoon 2015-04-18 02:19 am (UTC)(link)
Of course. While I have a vested interest in going home, I share the same enthusiasm for justice, and being placed in such unfamiliar territory will not douse that.
curedham: (come on baby let me get to you)

The mark of a true agent of righteousness is tirelessness. I have no doubt our virtuous campaigns will only hasten our journies home! Oh, and I believe proper introductions are in order, yes? [She gives a short curtesy.] I am Princess L'Arachel of Rausten. Though the circumstances are not ideal, it is pleasure to meet you nonetheless.

Of course - it is my intention to find my way back without delay.
