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!!!

[He'll be tilting his head right back! November 2525? She honestly believes that? He considers keeping the truth from her, because who even knows what will happen if she has a faux reality that could be shattered? ...Nah, he'll take the plunge and see where it takes him.]

You're off by more than five hundred years, baby.

[Now that absolutely explains everything and she's not going to put it past the Covenant to have invented some kind of time travel. If this affair ends up being their doing, of course.

She frowns as she's regarding him, nodding slowly.]


It would explain why you haven't heard of the UNSC. It wasn't founded until the twenty-second century. [Somehow she's taking this really well...]

[Is a calm response like that better for the sanity counter, or worse? He can't quite tell. ...Not that he has any right to talk. He's trying his very best to keep his pleasant demeanor too.]

Oh yeaaah? That explains it, alright. [...] So would this knowledge make you less of wolf, or more of a wolf, I wonder?

[It's not like all of the Spartans are completely sane or ever claim to be, but hey, she's at least telling the truth when it comes to it.]

Take it as you will, not like I have evidence saying one way or another. None of us have an alibi and none of us seem to have a method of killing someone. [A small frown as she shifts around to pull her assault rifle off of the magnetic part of her backplate, opening it up to show the contents where the ammo should be.]

They seem to have taken any method of protection we might have had on us.

[Whoo-whee. That is one big rifle. Part of him is relieved that it doesn't have any ammo, but part of him is curious. He takes out his own gun, which pales heavily in comparison to the rifle (but hey, not like he needs to compensate for anything) and checks it. All the bullets are still in there.]

Seeems like they only thought to disarm you, baby. [Or they only thought to arm Cabanela, which would make him look mighty suspicious for reasons that aren't even within his control, so let's not point that out.]

[Psh, there's no such thing as small weapons for Spartans, unless you count the pistols, but an AR is a much better thing to be using and more effective in the long run. Though now she's both curious and agitated by not having any damn ammo while someone who probably shouldn't be having on, in her own opinion, still has their's.

Figures.]


Somehow I'm not surprised. [A small bit of a snort, crossing her arms in probably more of a child-like manner than she'd like.]

Probably afraid I'm not responsible with it or something, or that it's fare more dangerous than a simple pistol...

[As they'll find out within a few hours' time, allowing Cabanela to have a fully loaded weapon was indeed a very bad idea. Until then, he's counting his blessings.]

It certainly looks far more daaangerous than a simple pistol. The sort of gun that could blow a man's head clean off, even.

I cannot type today for the life of me

[personal profile] speedy_rabbit 2015-04-19 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[Which will be duly noted and secured away for later if weapons are ever a necessary thing.]

With enough bullets it could, it's not shotgun caliber. It's far more effective in a mob scenario than one-on-one.
inspectormacarena: (Coupé)

[personal profile] inspectormacarena 2015-04-19 05:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Ohh? ...Sounds like you're talkin' from experience.

[Please tell him you did not seriously take that thing into a 'mob' to start shooting at people.]

[personal profile] speedy_rabbit 2015-04-19 06:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[Do aliens qualify as people?]

Comes with the soldier experience. I only, only shoot when is necessary and that's if someone is threatening mine, an innocent, or a teammates life.

[Errr. Depends how sentient they are.]

Ahh, I seee. [...] Would you consider this game to be threatening, by chance?

[... They can speak English and kind of have a whole society and religion thing, not that she knows that much about them yet.]

Unless it's an active threat of death, no, I wouldn't. At least not enough to warrant the use of a weapon.
inspectormacarena: (Danseur noble)

[personal profile] inspectormacarena 2015-04-19 06:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[...Then yes. Yes, that counts as people.]

Good, goood. Then I certainly hope you'll stay on our side until we find a way out of this stiiicky situation, baby.
speedy_rabbit: (pic#5986152)

[personal profile] speedy_rabbit 2015-04-19 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well shit.]

Wasn't planning on changing any side until we find out who's responsible for this, so no worries on that.
inspectormacarena: (Danseur noble)

[personal profile] inspectormacarena 2015-04-19 07:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[... Interesting wording on the sides, there, but at least she agrees there's a common enemy.]

Suuuper. Thanks, baby.
