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!!!

[Huh. Does he look nervous?]

Have you been to LA before, Jesse?
yeahscience: ([4-5] what about a--)

[personal profile] yeahscience 2015-04-17 04:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, a couple of times, when I was a kid. Disneyland, you know?
specialest_agent: (This is it Zach.)

[personal profile] specialest_agent 2015-04-17 04:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Have you ever heard of the Sunshine Coliseum before?
yeahscience: ([4-5] rly)

[personal profile] yeahscience 2015-04-17 04:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Not unless it's a new ride or something, no.
specialest_agent: (My eyes are beautiful Zach)

[personal profile] specialest_agent 2015-04-17 05:21 pm (UTC)(link)
It's where we are right now, if the rules on our phones are accurate.
yeahscience: ([4-5] wash out)

[personal profile] yeahscience 2015-04-17 05:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay. Great. I got no clue how I wound up here from freaking Albuquerque, but whatever. So what?
specialest_agent: (This is it Zach.)

[personal profile] specialest_agent 2015-04-17 05:51 pm (UTC)(link)
According to the rules, the LAPD is involved. But neither of us have heard of a Sunshine Coliseum in LA.
yeahscience: ([4-5] look down)

[personal profile] yeahscience 2015-04-17 05:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Well... Judge Creep-o over there -- [He nods towards Doom.] -- thinks that part about the cops is bullshit, and my, uh, partner thinks that the murder is probably bullshit, so maybe the LA thing is, too.
specialest_agent: (I haven't shaved in two days.)

[personal profile] specialest_agent 2015-04-17 06:28 pm (UTC)(link)
That would be a lot of lies. Wouldn't it be simpler to build your lies upon one truth, at the very least?
yeahscience: ([1-3] srsly?)

[personal profile] yeahscience 2015-04-17 06:35 pm (UTC)(link)
So which one you think's the truth?
specialest_agent: (FBI Special Agent)

[personal profile] specialest_agent 2015-04-17 07:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[SHRUG.]

I don't see much of a reason to stage a murder. That could change, though.
yeahscience: ([1-3] doubt it)

[personal profile] yeahscience 2015-04-18 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
Really? 'Cause I was assuming it was the LA thing.

[Is it good or bad that he can think of plenty of reasons to stage a murder?

is it good or bad that he can think of them in the abstract but can't see one in front of his freaking face]
specialest_agent: (Oh I'm listening.)

[personal profile] specialest_agent 2015-04-18 12:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Why? [Let's hear your DEDUCTIVE REASONING, Jesse.]
yeahscience: ([4-5] are you there god it's me jesse)

[personal profile] yeahscience 2015-04-19 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
I mean... I can see as how maybe whoever's doing this wants us to get pissed off with each other, start accusing each other. Or maybe they want us all to wonder if we did something while we were unconscious. Maybe a fake murder's a really good distraction from whatever the hell else is going on.

But why fake the location, if none of us got any way of getting in touch with the outside? I mean, why bother?
specialest_agent: (Can you hear me?)

[personal profile] specialest_agent 2015-04-19 10:28 am (UTC)(link)
[Time for another aside to his invisible friend:] He's not bad at this, Zach.
