TRIAL 02

[thecomputer]

Attention, Citizens! You have ten minutes to proceed to the Loyalty Chamber. Anyone who is late to the Loyalty Chamber, or who brings any weapons into the Loyalty Chamber, will be immediately executed.

[Once you arrive, you will find a large chamber, with twenty podiums spaced around the room in a circle. On the ceiling, a massive screen showing the digital eye of The Computer, turning to look at whoever is talking.]

You have one hour to come to a consensus about who to eliminate. Ties will be broken randomly.

[The floor of the chamber begins to split apart, eventually only leaving the twenty podiums as safe places to stand, above a seemingly bottomless abyss. Each podium lights up with a touch screen showing twenty user IDs (the dead are grayed out), plus the word “ABSTAIN”. However, ABSTAIN has now been grayed out as well. The trial begins now!]

We should at least know if they revealed anyone as safe. Even with the chance of the inhibitor covering the person the loyalty officer investigated, it may give us better odds of making the right decisions in votes.

I'm sorry, Detective. We've got one unlucky Loyalty Officer on our hands. The only names they've cleared are mine and Greed's.

[thefaceofjustice]

So that's why you're speaking for them? That's not all unlucky. It's good that there's at least one person that they can talk to.

[schrodingers_man]

It'd be better if everyone believed me about it.

[ Keep this good faith up, Bobby, and maybe you'll even make Yomiel start feeling charitable about Cabanela. ]

It's something. Until now, we didn't have much of anything.

But if the message really wasn't from the loyalty officer, I guess we're out of leads.

Unless another citizen made the message. But I don't know what they'd base it on. Just that she voted differently? Or because of a private conversation..?
