RECORDING 3: THE FIRST TRIAL

[foundationmods]

The worst has happened... and now you're all here, in the living room where you first met Todd. As all of you enter, the Vessel is there - glowering at all of you, still missing the arm Dazai shorn from him with his touch.

On one of the tables away from the center is a small enclosed box entitled 'VOTES', with slips of paper nearby and a pen. It's sufficiently away from what will be the 'main' action, but not enough to really give anyone complete privacy as they vote.

Once everyone is inside, the doors automatically shut and lock themselves, leaving you trapped in here with the Vessel...and each other.

One of you is a murderer...however, in this game, the guilty do not need to be voted out. As long as there are enough people voted out that matches the victims...then it will be accepted.

...But, can you really let someone get away with murder...?

The choice...is up to you.

VICTIM: OLYMPIA
PEOPLE TO VOTE OUT: 1

WEEK 1 VOTING

[She will close her eyes, and also Ky gave her a bit of his shirt to wipe with... that gives her the courage to start breathing]

[eyeforai]

[Well, that's a good sign. He'll just give her a bit of time to get used to breathing again before speaking up once more.]

I'm going to pick you up and carry you out of here. Are you ready?

[golden_dream]

[She just hangs her head, honestly not sure... but then, she needed to be anyplace but here, so she nods, finally.]

[eyeforai]

[Even if the rest of the mansion isn't necessarily welcoming with the threat of the miasma and whatever else is in place around here, it's still better than sitting in a puddle of blood and gore. So, as gently as he can, he'll shift her so he can pick her up in a princess carry before walking out the room. There aren't really that many good places to put her, but... the bathrooms probably make the most sense at this point.]

[golden_dream]

[that's good... it's a nice feeling.

There's no neck support so she can't fully relax, but she does try to keep herself up enough for that.]

[eyeforai]

[Thankfully, it's not a long trip so she won't need to strain her neck or anything. When they get there though, he'll lower her to the ground near a wall so she can at least use that as support if she's still feeling weak.]

Sorry, this is about as far as I can take you. Will you be okay cleaning up on your own?

[Otherwise he's just going to have to fetch one of the other girls here.]

[golden_dream]

... [Even with her shell-shocked and covered with guts, she almost wanted to ask him to help. She could use more attention. But, no. It was better for her if she didn't associate blood with that, she reasoned.]

...Just turn the water on when you go. I'll make myself a new outfit when I'm done.

[oh, wait.]

Wait. Here, take these... keep these safe for me.

[she'll hand over her inventory: gun (unloaded!), box of shells, her fountain pen, handbag of cosmetics, and a bottle of tranquilizers.]

[eyeforai]

Right. Make sure to take advantage of it while it's still hot.

[There's a blink at the items though and while he doesn't protest at unloading her inventory on him, there is a slightly quizzical expression on his face at the whole thing. Still, considering how out of it she seemed, maybe it's better not to ask for now.]

Sure. I'll drop them off at your room later.

[If there's nothing else, he'll do as she asks and turn on the water before leaving.]
