TDM: ROUND 3

15 STRANGERS ROUND 3
TEST DRIVE




There are 15 strangers in this place. Someone knows why. And its clear the odds are stacked against you.

1. ARRIVAL
Oh god, you're inside a Base. Why are you here? What happened to your powers? Your memories? Who else has been so unlucky as to be brought in with you? What are you wearing? What are these strange rules? And...why do you feel like the person who wrote them is going to like yelling at you?

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. Or if you want to try and see if you can break out of your new domicile. Or, hey, go ahead and blow things up - there's no rule against property damage aside from the camerabots, after all...

3. HOME
So now you live in a Base of some kind. Whee. Maybe living here forever won't be so bad, since there are things to do with your free time. Unless you're looking for a way out, but surely, you wouldn't do that, right?

4. MINIGAME
The Commander has decided to do...erm, 'games'. Those who win the games will get prizes, the Commander has promised. This Test Drive Meme's minigame: a laundry folding contest! The most items folded in one hour wins! Work alone, or in teams - either way, you get the feeling there's an ulterior motive to the Commander making you do this while they watch and laugh...
5. MOTIVE
The Commander has (somewhat too gleefully) announced the motive for the week. Clearly someone out there really wants to give you a reason to kill someone else. 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 Commander wasn't kidding when they said there would be a trial if someone was murdered. So now you're here, looking to condemn the responsible killer. If you do, they die. If you don't, well, you'll end up killing an innocent person, as the Commander has announced what would happen if the majority votes incorrectly. Whatever happens, you have to figure out what happened. Can you?

8. SCAPEGOAT
Oh dear...the Commander has just announced that the person everyone just voted for...was actually completely innocent! Not only that, but they've revealed who the real culprit was! Maybe you're that innocent person, trying to say your goodbyes or beg for your life. Maybe you're one of the ones who voted for the innocent person, trying to cope with the horrible act you've just committed. Or maybe you're the true culprit, who now has to not only deal with an innocent dying for your actions, but also the fact that you can now be killed without repercussion!...

9. WILDCARD
Anything not mentioned above. Go wild!

Cesare Borgia || Cantarella ~Poison of Blue~

[personal profile] poisonofblue 2018-06-17 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[[ OOC: Due to the sensitive nature of some of canon, please see my permissions here. ]]

[ I. Arrival ]

...What in God's name are these disgusting clothes?

[ Yup. Of all the things Cesare could focus on, this is the first he's going to actually voice. He hates this. This isn't his beautiful home with his beautiful sister and his wine and poison collection. So what the fuck is happening. He'll sit up and stare forward, with the most disgruntled look on his face ever. ]

[ III. Not Enough Alcohol ]

[ The winery with the rules is practically torture, even if he's pretty sure that the wine would be atrocious. And he knows wine, he's from Rome. But really, he kind of needs it right now as he stares through a history book that mentions his family! Because this is all wrong. ]

...I never had any brothers. It was just Lucrezia and myself. And I am most certainly not a bastard child! My parents were legally wed! Think of the scandal if they hadn't been!

[ ?????? What is with this. ]

And Lucrezia only married once for a year, what is with this incredibly inaccurate telling?

[ HE IS OFFENDED!!! ]

[ VI. Death ]

Well. I can tell you right now, unless the blood is all around the mouth, it's not likely poisoning. Now excuse me, I've not had enough to drink for this.

[ Who cares about the rules on this, he's going to the winery unless fucking stopped. He's not drunk enough for any of this shit. ]
coralroot: (I don't need tinder boy anymore)

Not enough booze

[personal profile] coralroot 2018-06-17 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
You want me to set the thing on fire?

[ There's no rules against property damage, yo. She's carrying a spear in one hand. ]
poisonofblue: (pic#11792273)

[personal profile] poisonofblue 2018-06-18 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
You might get into trouble. And I'm not about to let someone get hurt over a silly, inaccurate book.

[ He's just slamming it shut and shoving it back. ]
coralroot: (His pet bird was perched ON HIS DICK.)

[personal profile] coralroot 2018-06-18 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
Hey, ain't no rule against property damage. Although I gotta say, you seemed pretty pissed off for something that's apparently silly.
losergod: (Teehee!)

Death

[personal profile] losergod 2018-06-18 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, my. You're not going to go into winery, are you? You know that wine isn't yours, Mister Borgia.

[ This is one brat who looks VERY amused, tbh. ]

How like Cesare Borgia to know whether or not it was poisoning!
poisonofblue: (pic#11792291)

[personal profile] poisonofblue 2018-06-18 01:50 am (UTC)(link)
...Yes, considering "poisons" is one of my likes, that is patently obvious.

[ NOT. COMMENTING ON THE OTHER THING. ]
losergod: (Smile.)

[personal profile] losergod 2018-06-18 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
[ He tsks, clearly amused. ]

Naughty, dipping into the captain's wine. I wonder what would happen if someone told on you?

[ ... He wouldn't--

Oh god.

He would, just because. Of course, in his mind, normally he'd also possess the captain just to freak Cesare out, but he keeps forgetting he can't do that here, it's really quite frustrating. A shame, really. ]


In any event, you really should be more careful. Fleeing from the scene makes you liable as a suspect, you know. You cannot simply walk in here and announce you doubt it's poison and leave. People will want to know where you are, and where you were.

[personal profile] poisonofblue 2018-06-18 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
If I wanted to kill someone, you'd know I'd done it. Because Borgias don't hide themselves like sneak-thieves in the night. I'm just not drunk enough for this entire situation and the idiocy that caused this.

[ He is a proud man, you know. ]
losergod: (Q84.)

[personal profile] losergod 2018-06-18 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
[ Just. Still smiling. ]

... Inebriating yourself is, of course, a proper reaction to the situation? Diluting your senses? Very adult of you, Mister Borgia. I do wonder how you drinking will aid us in finding the killer, though.

And, dare I say it, a very common action most men would take in this situation.
poisonofblue: (pic#11792273)

[personal profile] poisonofblue 2018-06-18 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
It makes about as much sense to do as this entire damned place.

[ Listen he. Has had a bad time here. Because he understands nothing. Help him. ]
losergod: (Gentle.)

[personal profile] losergod 2018-06-18 02:02 am (UTC)(link)
You know, if you have trouble understanding the technology, perhaps it might be prudent to ask someone such as myself for aid? I know you are rather proud being, well, a nobleman and whatnot, but...

[ Hm, it might be a more gentle smile here. Somehow, he is oddly... unbothered by their Dead Friend. ]

I wouldn't mind.
poisonofblue: (pic#11792274)

[personal profile] poisonofblue 2018-06-18 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
.......

[ Quit being creepy. ]

I think I'll be fine.
losergod: (Siiiigh.)

[personal profile] losergod 2018-06-18 03:12 am (UTC)(link)
[ A ~dramatic~ sigh. ]

Will you really? Your demeanor and freakouts over historical inaccuracies do not instill me with much confidence.
poisonofblue: (pic#11792291)

[personal profile] poisonofblue 2018-06-18 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
If they're going to have books about me, they might as well be accurate and not throw around baseless accusations or invent entire siblings from the air.

[ IT'S IMPORTANT. ]
losergod: (Thinking.)

[personal profile] losergod 2018-06-18 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
Actually, as far as I remember reading, it was very correct. Plenty of sources stated the very same thing. However...

[ ... Hm. How to phrase it? ]

Reality isn't as simple as you'd probably like to stipulate it to be. To my understanding, it's likeliest the inaccuracies fall more from your perspective, but you think the books are false, yes? The real problem lies in that both are correct.
poisonofblue: (pic#11792273)

[personal profile] poisonofblue 2018-06-18 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
...I feel like my perspective, as Cesare Borgia, is all that matters on this. We had many enemies, so it wouldn't be hard to assassinate our family's character.

losergod: (Siiiigh.)

[personal profile] losergod 2018-06-18 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
I AM saying that matters, though.

[ He sighs once more, the sound of someone older disapproving of a child, perhaps. ]

You may not be aware of this, but there are many realities. Think of it like... there being multiple pages in a book, but they're all the same passage, with slight alterations on the same subject. I have seen such things firsthand.

Death

[personal profile] soldierofspacetime 2018-06-18 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
Is this really the time for that? We need to concentrate!

[Honestly, how are you not dead from alcohol poisoning Mr. Historical Domain Character]
poisonofblue: (pic#11792303)

[personal profile] poisonofblue 2018-06-18 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
And what would it matter? It's not like I know enough to help.

[ He doesn't know modern shit, and if it's not poison he can't help. ]
soldierofspacetime: (Default)

[personal profile] soldierofspacetime 2018-06-18 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
We all have to work together. We're all in this together and anything you can find or see would be helpful. Someone else can interpret the evidence if you need help.

At the very least, help here and I won't stop you from drinking after.

I don't really have skills to contribute to this, Miss Meiou. My skills are with poison and religious matters and leading people. But I'm severely out of my element. I'm not sure what you think I could contribute, so I'm best staying out of the way.
