day four - afternoon

[guestcontrol]

dreamland day four 31 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 11 PM EST on October 3.

...Yeah, we can do that. I....was wondering why Kyo-chan didn't do anything or leave anything behind, but...

Let's discuss the oddities of each of them, starting with that one.

[harepiece]

We can talk about him next. [Said with an affirmative nod, because he knows that Kyouya was part of a group here.]

For them... I think the biggest oddity is why they were placed the way they were. And why they were separate, too... The lack of any struggle is strange too, isn't it? But I think that could be said for almost all of them.

[cakelover]

Right. The only one who tried to get away, from what we know, was Hiko-chan.

For them, being placed separately was definitely odd - why not just take them to the same ride? Unless...they were killed at different times or by different people?

[harepiece]

That might make the most sense. We already know that more than one person is probably involved in these murders because of Fuyuhiko's, right?

[cakelover]

Right. So, for some reason...they probably split them up to kill?

[harepiece]

Right... But I have no idea why they might have done that. It probably isn't something to do with a time limit, since splitting them up with take more time, I think.

[cakelover]

Well...what possibilities can Oz-chan think of for them having done that?

[harepiece]

Sheba mentioned something about maybe only one person being allowed to... strike the killing blow. Maybe it's something like that?

[cakelover]

It could be. So...that night...Dipper-chan and Mahiru-chan ended up in the park. For some reason - perhaps because of rules we don't know about - they were split up by those people...

And both somehow ended up sitting in two different rides, where they were shot. Why...did they stay seated to be shot at...?

[perfectstrike]

Is it possible they were shot in the same location?

[Sup friends, talking about concrete theories? Peko is here.]

And the bodies were moved later?

[cakelover]

Well, it isn't impossible - but it looked like they'd been sitting in those places before they died, right?

[ /casually went to check the log ]

[harepiece]

I don't understand that part, either. Maybe because there are so many VIPs and only one victim? [As in, it'd be pointless to run anyway.]

I didn't look at the bodies closely, but there wasn't anything to indicate that they were held in place or something, right?

[cakelover]

I didn't see anything that would indicate that...

[harepiece]

I can't think of any other reason why they'd stay still, then... Unless they were threatened, maybe?

[cakelover]

What kind of threat would cause them to allow themselves to be shot...?

[harepiece]

They could have threatened to bring someone else out, maybe... Everyone that the VIPs have picked so far- [EXCEPT MALIK THE OUTLIER] -has been close to someone else here, right?

[cakelover]

Except Malik-chan...that's true.

[harepiece]

...I would really like to think that they wouldn't do something like that, though. Especially if a person like Edea was one of them.
