DAY 00

[Good afternoon, Citizens!

Your consciousness blurrily returns as the transport tube your comatose body was stored in opens up, admitting you access to an unfamiliar room. One wall is covered by vertical tubes, one occasionally sliding open to admit another confused person. The wall across from you has a sign saying "PROCEED TO CENTRAL HUB", with an arrow pointing at a red doorway in the corner. The wall to your right contains an unlabeled, dusty, and poorly-lit hallway with blue walls, floor, and ceiling. You can't see the end from here.

Somewhere on your person, you will find a thin, smartphone-sized object that wasn't there before. One side of it is lit up with a red background and a number of disabled menu items. Most of the screen is taken up by another message saying "PROCEED TO CENTRAL HUB".

What is this place, anyway? And who are these people stumbling in through the transport tube array?]

[[Beyond the three prompts below, anyone may start their own prompts to mingle or go off and do their own thing or whatever else they want!]]

[And all at once, Robins face lights up. She pumps a fist and hops into the room, quickly shutting the door behind her.]

Yeah! Thanks a lot, man! I was afraid I'd end up sleeping outside somewhere!

[Which is an honest fear, since you could die.]

Don't mention it.

[He'll do you the admittedly half-assed courtesy of sitting up, at least.]

I don't think I got your name earlier.
fullonbraced: (It's all about the art maaaan!)

Oh yeah! I'm Robin Newman! Prosecutor in training!

[She's so pumped up about that. It'd be contagious if Kimbley gave a damn.]
alchemicals: (005.)

A prosecutor...

[It'd be more contagious if he hadn't spent so damn long in prison; he's not exactly thrilled about the legal system, apologies.]

As excited about justice as our boy Fulbright out there?
fullonbraced: (I'M READY! WOOOO!!!)

[personal profile] fullonbraced 2014-11-03 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, man! Me and my friends are gonna bring an end to the dark age of the law!!!

[....]

But that Detective arrested my friend for murder! Even though she's totally innocent, man!

[He tips his head a bit at that before he answers; it's good to have allies in a game like this, right? So let's see...]

Yeah, I know how that goes. That actually happened to me, too, a long time ago.

Good thing we've got people like you around that want to make it so shit like that doesn't happen, right?
fullonbraced: (It's all about the art maaaan!)

[personal profile] fullonbraced 2014-11-03 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
Uh... yeah! I don't want that to happen at all, man!

[Not sure where he's going with this, but okay. Justice!]

It did? That totally sucks, man! Were you framed for murder too?
alchemicals: (010.)

[It's at moments like this that he kind of wishes Archer was here; he's always so much better at spinning this shit than Kimbley is.]

There was some sort of government cover-up that I found out too much about. I was framed for killing my superior officers and they put me on death row to shut me up.

I got out of it, but it wasn't my idea of fun.
fullonbraced: (I'M READY! WOOOO!!!)

[personal profile] fullonbraced 2014-11-03 06:21 am (UTC)(link)
Whoooa! That's horrible, man! We're still trying to find my friend innocent though, but good for you!

It'll come around, if she's really innocent.

[He is, at least, managing to keep a mostly straight face.]

So tell me about yourself, why don't you? You're a prosecutor in training, what else?

You wanna hear about meee?! Uh, there's not much to tell! I'm a second-rate member of the fine arts club! I always wanted to be an artist, man!
