superhighschoollevelooc | Mock Trial OOC Mingle!

Hello, lovelies, and welcome to DRRP's second annual Mock Trial! Congratulations on surviving the reserveucopia! We have an entire crop of newbies this cycle and all three of us mods are ecstatic to have you.

At some point today (4/21) the IC mingle post will be going up in the main comm (

danganroleplay ). If you have any questions in regards to the game please feel free to hit up the mod plurk (

monomods ) or one of our personals (

resplendentri ,

winterbolt and

frickninja) and have a look at our last official round's FAQ for how the game/trial mechanics work! The mock trial investigation will be going up Friday, April 24th between 12 pm and 2 pm EST and the trial will be posted Saturday April 25th between 12 pm and 2 pm EST barring any OOC circumstances that might delay them.

In the meantime feel free to use this post to get to know your fellow ~~tributes~~ students and introduce yourselves. Make friends and then suffer gleefully as you wait to see if they'll end up going to the big murder train in the sky! That's the name of the game after all!

Have fun, everyone!

HOO BOY let's see if I can type up a good intro on my phone without an embarassing number of mistakes.

Hi there! I'm Dani, and I'll be bringing in the lovely Hiyono Yuizaki from Spiral: the Bonds of Reasoning as your friendly SHSL Newspaper Club President! Expect complaints about how needlessly unwieldy and specific it is. Seriously, there are so many better options! SHSL Bishoujo, SHSL Detective Assistant.... Isn't this overdoing it?

As for Hiyono herself, she's one of those obnoxious newspaper club students who always seems to know everything about everyone due to a combination of a far-reaching network and... less than ethical methods of invstigation. Typical anime high schooler stuff, right? Given she normally makes use of all this knowledge to assist in murder mysteries, don't expect a whole lot of surprise from her when the corpse shows up.

You can contact me at

danidanidanica if you need me and/or just want to start up the friendship brigade! I can't wait to play with everyone! ♪

How much death has this girl seen to be so calm during investigations??

Honestly it's probably less of a 'getting used to seeing bodies' thing and more of a 'oh, wow, the murderer must have been really sadistic to pull this off, I WONDER WHO COULD HAVE DONE IT?'

The girl's got her priorities and they don't include being freaked out by the dead. Or... a lot of things you would normally describe as horrifying, really.

...Most people take time to mourn over a dead body, kid. At least Duster can count on you to investigate the body while he goes off to do other things.

I can't believe you people are forcing a cute and innocent girl like her to investigate a corpse. Her fragile maiden heart might not be able to handle it, you know!

/rustle rustle

I can only see this meeting going well

A/s/l/bloodtype/day of birth/measurements/mother's maiden name?

16/m/on a train???/a/dec 3/hold on let me find a tape measure/i dont have a mom i was made out of time travel slime

Sorry could you repeat the last one she seems to have dropped her notebook, silly her.

Technically it might be Lalonde?? Shit's confusing when you don't really have any papers on account of slamming down to earth on a meteor as an infant and killing a perfectly innocent pony

Does she just attract people with crazy birth stories?

There's no way this could be coincidence, this is getting ridiculous.

>less ethical methods of investigation
she's gonna know everyone's underwear before it's even written on an application

She can narrow down a list of suspects from the entire school population to twenty students based on measurements and daily routine.

Underwear is easy mode.

then hopefully a trial never involves narrowing the culprit down by chest size, luca will cry if those numbers are relevant................

idk what you're talking about that title is perfectly reasonable in length (says the guy whose title is Way Longer than most troll titles are supposed to be).

This might possibly be more comforting if it didn't come from a terrifying 12 foot alien

No offense meant or anything sir

Wow excuse you, space racist

spacist

It's just something about your build, man, it looks especially

Murderous

Unless that's a common trait with your people in which case she is very sorry

porque no los dos

I'm canonblind but she sounds amazing! I hope she gets her info network chugging along in the short time we have on the murdertrain, we're gonna need it.

IT WILL BE AN EFFORT but she's not one to let puny concerns like 'impossibilities' and 'respect for privacy' get in her way!!

And it's perfectly fine to be canonblind, I feel like I am probably overinvested in her series considering it's like. Over a decade old. Floppy disks and tape recorders are among her tools of the trade, man.

It's been forever since I read it, but I loved Spiral. +_+

OH NO SOMEONE WHO KNOWS ALL MY SECRETS INSTEAD OF THE OTHER WAY AROUND.

p-please do not judge me too hard for still being incredibly invested in this old and ridiculous series 8'D

OH GOSH NO

No judgment here, I still want to reread it one of these days. ~~Besides, I can't judge, I like silly idol shows.~~

I've been rereading it in prep for this, no regrets ever.

Well okay maybe a few whenever I get to the last arc but what's a little gross sobbing, right?
