Round 2 Test Drive Meme
TEST DRIVE 1. ARRIVAL You're here, in the Mall. Wherever the Mall might be, right? And what happened to your powers? Your memories? Who else has been so unlucky as to be brought in with you? Also, why are the rules littered with emojis!? 2. POWER You have been, er, "blessed" with a power. Its not a power you want or care for, but its yours now. You might want to try an control it, lest you hurt someone else. That is...unless you want to. Just don't blow up any public property while you're at it! 3. HOME So now you live in a mall! All right! Modern conveniences galore! And hey, there's a cat cafe and a bar! Maybe living here forever won't be so bad. Unless you're looking for a way out, but surely, you wouldn't do that, right? 4. MINIGAME The Life Coach has decided to do 'games'. Those who win the games will get prizes, the Life Coach has promised. The Test Drive Meme's minigame: a costume contest! The best costume made in five hours wins! Work alone, or in teams - the Life Coach is ok with either~! 5. MOTIVE The Life Coach has announced the motive for the week. Clearly someone really wants to give you a reason to kill someone. How will you react? Will you stand against such an insult and help others to fight the temptation? Or perhaps, you yourself are tempted...? 6. DEATH One of your own has died - no, been killed. The Inquisition has started. The body lies before you, and now you must discern the truth from the clues before you. But can you when you mourn? Or, perhaps you don't mourn the dead. Perhaps you're only playing along because you know more than you let on. 7. TRIAL Well, it looks like the Life Coach wasn't kidding when they said there would be a trial. So now you're here, looking to condemn the responsible killer. If you do, they die. If you don't, you die. Whatever happens, you have to figure out what happened. Can you? 8. WILDCARD Anything not mentioned above. Go wild! |

One thing worries me... There are those who value their freedom highly enough to kill for it, but in an environment such as this, where most needs and wants can be met, the majority would not be inclined to go so far.
If murder is what our hosts desire of this, just what else are they planning?

Of course, if nobody proves to have sufficient motivation on their own, I wouldn't be surprised if they begin limiting access to luxuries or even basic necessities. If there's not enough food to go around, for example, you could eventually expect all but the most sacrificially selfless of individuals to be willing to kill to ensure they get a next meal.

That's quite a legitimate possibility. Though given there does, as you said, seem to be some twisted amusement of their own involved in this, I wonder if that wouldn't be too straightforward for them.
[Kurama tugs out his copy of the list of rules, flicking it in Akechi's direction pointedly. His expression shifts to one of almost pained reflection.] This alone, I think, indicates something very askew at work. Emojis, colored ink, valley-girl speak... And the mood whiplash of the entire thing is truly astounding.

Yes, I honestly have to wonder about the age of this alleged 'Life Coach'. This seems more like the work of a teenage girl than a hardened criminal. Either it's an attempt at convincing us to underestimate our situation, or we've been left in the care of a truly deranged individual.
