RECORDING 6: THE SECOND 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 - Olympia, staring balefully at you in all of her robotic glory.

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: JACK MORRISON
PEOPLE TO VOTE OUT: 1

WEEK 2 VOTING

Unless they're hoping to get caught.

[reanimania]

[ Hm. ]

I suppose that's a possibility.

[ Though he can't really comprehend that mindset... ]

[kaliedoscopes]

The other possibility I can think of is that they thought we wouldn't check the garbage can, but that seems faulty as well unless they thought we were all that dense. Or averse to getting our hands dirty.

[ So yeah that doesn't seem likely to him, but gotta consider everything. ]

[noneforall]

Ah, then you're throwing in for the accidental death side of this? I wonder. It would require a lot of assumptions.

[kaliedoscopes]

It's reasonably likely. There's a few other possibilities, like the culprit believing we were inept or unwilling to rummage through garbage but that likewise makes a lot of assumptions considering last trial.

[noneforall]

They might have believed that their personal magic was unlikely to be deciphered far enough for anyone to pin them down. Otherwise, the accident would have to involve, at the very least, both the culprit and Morrison-san failing to notice the apple's toxicity.

They would have to be a very careless spellcaster to get this sort of result.
