POPULATION: GHOST TOWN

You die - and then you wake up.

For a second, it feels as though you can't breathe, and then your head breaks the surface. You crawl out of a pool of blood and into a large, crystalline room. Moving images play across the crystal walls, and if you watch close enough, you'll realize that you're seeing the land of the living; a familiar space station with familiar faces. You can watch these images for as long as you'd like - there are several very large benches (as in, you have to climb them to sit on them) around the room for you to rest on while you do.

Regardless of how you died, it seems as though you're not quite gone completely. You're in one piece, at least. That's good news. However, your surroundings are not exactly what you remember.

When you exit the first room, a bleak, empty city sprawls out ahead of you.

The city itself is large. The framework of it seems to tower higher and higher than you can see, up into the black opal sky that shivers and curls every so often. A river entirely made of blood runs through the city, winding around buildings and ending at the crystal room. The most noticeable thing about the buildings themselves is the fact that thorny vines made of pure white steel dig into the walls and floor, cracking the foundations.

The residential building is worn down and old. It's two floors, and has a few small studio apartments built for one or two people to live in. The beds are extremely uncomfortable. It has a communal area downstairs, but the TV is broken, and the couches are torn apart. Sometimes, this building feels obscenely hot in temperature, and smells like rotten eggs.

The grocery store is your typical convenience store. There's a large selection of food in this area, but it all tastes the same - like chalk. On top of this, every so often there will be bloodstains on the walls, the floor, and the displays. They change in size and location, each time you enter the store.

The clothing store is thrifty in nature. All the clothes here are uncomfortable and scratchy, and don't fit quite right. While you're here, time feels... weird. Distorted, almost dreamy. As you're picking out clothes and trying them on (no money needed, just take what you want), you swear you can hear a gunshot in the distance.

Enjoy your time in this city, and remember...your story isn't quite over yet.

WEEK 3 TRIAL WATCH

[holeful]

[Fukuda has dragged himself to the crystal room, somehow even more Sad Dog than he has been the rest of this week, especially after seeing the state Envy is in.]

Poor Envy... everyone aligned with them, dead without justice being served.
[Seems he's already assuming Omi and Douman's murders aren't going to be solved???]

[niceguyferatu]

Mmm, they don't seem to be taking it well, do they?

Have you spoken with them at all since dying?

[holeful]

Envy? No... I didn't think they'd want to hear from me, and I haven't had much energy besides...

[The potent Envy Despair Sloth combo.]

[notaccurate]

You should, they like the company. Even if it's only over texts.

[niceguyferatu]

[ raises an eyebrow ]

What makes you think they wouldn't want to hear from you?

[notaccurate]

Give it time, we'll see if they can find a murderer today.

[holeful]

What makes you think this week will be any different?

[bachelorbored]

[kaz seems to have dragged himself to the crystal room too, but instead of contributing in any meaningful way, he's

sleeping on one of the stone benches under a blanket. there's also more pillows than he could possibly have brought alone, implying that Hk-47 is also probably lurking around somewhere.]

[holeful]

[What if Fukuda just tries to gently steal one pillow bc he wants to lie on the floor too.]

[niceguyferatu]

[ when Law confesses and Harrow's just addressing him very calmly and civilly despite all that:

is there tea here? I'm gonna say there's tea here and that Vlad's been drinking it, so that he can spittake ]

What? And that's it?!

[holeful]

It almost seems too easy, how quickly he admitted to it...

[That's what Vlad means, clearly.]

[notaccurate]

Four people are dead because of you. And it will soon be five, if Law is voted out. I hope you're proud of yourself.

[He says that deadpan.]

[executeprogramming]

[HK is just here enjoying the vibes of everyone accusing each other of murder and the imminent possibility of another execution

however, when he sees aoi give sqx a surprise attack shove into a table he...applauds?]

Commentary: Oh, how very proud I am of the fake meatbag. What a wonderful display of unexpected aggression. And here I had thought my lessons had failed to take root in her scrambled programming.

Statement: What an exciting week this has proven to be. I am beginning to like it here.

[holeful]

[SUDDENLY SERIOUS.]

Don't call miss Aoi that.

[bachelorbored]

Oh, god. [he likes both of them. he can't watch.]

This is just like the great servant war the other day. Why are they doing this?

[kokytos]

[ Steven's got nothing to say throughout the trial. Just sitting and watching silently on his own. ]

[holeful]

[Fukuda will just silently scoot closer to him whether he wants this to happen or not.]

[notaccurate]

[Well.

How do you say "you get to see your boyfriend again" without being insensitive?]

[holeful]

[After Mineo mentions it offhand;]

Omi and Gojou were dating?
[He looks sad but then he's looked sad most of this week so it's hard to get a read on his feelings on this matter.]

[bachelorbored]

That's very modern of them.

[executeprogramming]

Commentary: If you are experiencing jealousy I would be happy to kill whichever one you like. Free of charge. [there's no money here]

[brightred]

Oh? Are you jealous?

IT'S OVERRRR

[notaccurate]

Well. At least they can get it correctly when the answer is handed right to them.

[holeful]

Even though several people refused to vote for him... even after he admitted he'd done it. It doesn't seem fair.

[kokytos]

[ Will Steven ever be easy to read??? No. Because once the trial's over, all he does is do a small little sigh, and get up and walk away, hand in his pocket and the other one running through his own hair. See ya later losers. ]
