day three - afternoon

[guestcontrol]

dreamland day three 34 players remaining. [As the day wears on into the afternoon, the dead aren't getting any deader. It's late in the afternoon, and the air is beginning to cool, when the chimes play again over the park loudspeaker. "All of us here at Dreamland wish you luck, guests! Let's meet up in the Hall of Mirrors!" Wherever you are, it's time to make your way over to the House of Horrors, where you'll have to brave the funhouse to find the room on the top floor. Don't delay, or your guest identification bracelet will begin beeping. The House of Mirrors is a large room, more than capable of fitting a crowd. Tall mirrors line every wall, and the door you entered through seems to vanish into a mirror as well. The mirrors give the impression that many, many more are among your number, standing in the background. In the back is a jar filled with blank raffle tickets. You'll have to take a ticket, write down a name, and place it back in the jar. Hopefully you already know who you're voting for, but if not, you only have time for a brief discussion before you're out of time. rulebook character statuses private conversations graveyard Voting will close at 10 PM EST on September 30.

Even Nick explains his arguments better, and he mostly just makes things up...

[edealistical]

While on death row, I request that you please don't look so cheerful when I'm trying to defend my life.

[poyoyon]

If someone said something like "I'll cut through that argument", Ibuki'd feel a lot better about it...

[fanbase]

[ She is gladly pleased to be able to explain this to Ibuki! ]

I think Edea is saying that Missile is a convert since nobody would wanna kill him since he's a dog, but that he was also previously the detective. Which is weird, because he didn't say anything when Levi claimed to be detective. Miko's saying Missile wasn't here to hear Levi's claim, so he wouldn't have been able to disagree with it until he heard someone saying that. We thought that Levi was a VIP, but Missile's just a dog so... we weren't able to understand that he was saying that he's innocent, just not a detective.

When Malik threatened Missile, Nui claimed that it didn't sit well with Edea. Which seems a little weird because... now it looks like she's ready to say he might be a VIP.

[unbridledjoy]

I think that he thought that delivering the pictures was all he had to do.

It wasn't until the trial that it became obvious that we still believed in Levi.

[edealistical]

...




Um.

Is there anyone else with an objection?

[perfectstrike]

[Here's Peko hours late with Starbucks. She's just kind of standing there frowning at the reporter, as if debating with herself whether or not she even wants to approach.

It's not for a few seconds longer before she finally does step forward, uncertainly holding out her hand for the letter.]

You are certain there is something addressed to me?

[fanbase]

No, I'd do the same thing. It's just... there are a lot of things that don't make sense. You stood up for Missile, didn't you?

[poyoyon]

...A shared letter?

[ A letter at all? They were all supposed to believe they'd get out of here together... ]

[edealistical]

But that's exactly the reason I suggest. He is above suspicion. Missile is intelligent enough to act as a player but has no particular value in strategy and the like. However, as a defensive measure, the best choices would be the small children or the dog.

[She shrugs slightly.]

And I am indeed desperate. What do you expect in a fight for my life? None of us have any evidence to actually use in these 'trials'... only circumstancial inference and groundless accusation.

[belgian]

Maybe he decided to only send the pictures to try and remain anonymous? [As anonymous as he could be, given his manner of getting information across.]

[mediumburgers]

I never knew how helpful people yelling "objection!" was until now... It makes it a lot clearer who's arguing with who about what!

[edealistical]

I'm not going to keep standing up for him when he wants me killed!

...If we want to talk about how adorable he is, I'd be happy to do it, but this is really asking too much.

[poyoyon]

[ CLASH, YOU'RE SO SMART. Or at least the condensed version is a lot easier to follow than Edea's was, since Ibuki bluescreened from confusion for most of it. Too...too many words, not enough helpful pictures and accusations from Hajime-chan. ]

So Clash-chan's voting for Edea-chan?

[edealistical]

I'm saying you're more willing to suspect a human than a dog.

I explained that earlier - that one of our two animal trainers played a role in this somehow. But that's only conjecture, of course.

[crueltobekind]

Don't ask for that!!

[mediumburgers]

Oooh, that makes more sense! I mean, as clever as he is he probably didn't realize we needed a bigger shove in the right direction than just pictures.

[sparklyrichbastard]

S-sorry...

[mediumburgers]

[ STICKS OUT TONGUE ]

[edealistical]

My premise here is that Missile would be one of the enemy, so I don't think what 'Missile says' can be a fair objection.

As for that, that's exactly why I think any detective would have immediately investigated the false one.

[fanbase]

It's not even that he's a dog. If he were a person, it would be the same thing! You stood up for him and now you're going to throw him under the bus? You're really not going to stick to your word? Or even your loyalty?

[ She sounds confused, maybe even a little worried. It seems Clash can't sit still when it has to do with staying loyal. ]

[unbridledjoy]

Yes. And that is why I think he was acting on his own.

If someone had trained him to try and clear Legion, and pin the blame on Edea, then he would have done so immediately and would not have waited until the last minute like he did, is that not so? Because the people training him would have known that we were still suspecting Legion and would have prompted him to act sooner.

[edealistical]

Convenience, I think. I was probably his first day pick, so he was already familiar with my appearance and could be trained more easily.
