ROLE — SECURITY PATROL 🔦
SECURITY PATROL
welcome, crewmate shu.
Early in the day on TUESDAY, Shu will hear the familiar ping of the I.R.I.S. at his wrist; the moment that he lifts up his hand to check what the noise is for, a window immediately pops up. The projection fills in a spread of blue, and a message sent only to his designation loads in the window.
I have something of a job for you. Pick a location to set up an off-network camera, to catch anything in the area; if the system is going to pull a stunt on us again, we can certainly work smarter, not harder.
If it does, meet me in the morning after the lockdown ends. I've updated some of your credentials so you should be able to get up before anyone else. We can go get the camera, maybe squeeze in a second location before we have to lock down everything and everyone's awake.

ADRASTEA
Come FRIDAY, early in the morning, a message notification sounds again. It's loud enough that it rouses him from a very groggy sleep before anyone else. No one else even twitches at the sound or the blue light, and there's nobody in the halls the moment Shu steps outside, so might as well head to the location that pops up - right?
It indicates where Shu needs to go to meet Adrastea. The walk there is eerie, and lit only by the emergency lights of the ship - a sickly, golden orange in a strip that barely brightens the dark corners. The senior officer can be found easily there, spinning something almost absently around one finger, the other hand cupping their elbow. Once Shu is close enough, they stop spinning the item in their possession and instead toss it at him for him to catch.
It's a flashlight, one with a strap on the end. Huh. Pretty useful, considering the darkness that surrounds them.
Adrastea taps a flashlight of their own against their shoulder, something serious but enigmatic in their filtered voice as their helmet remains blank, only a faint, cool blue glow just barely visible from within. "Let's go."

RULES
As the role responsible for security patrols, along with the information that is acquired on patrol, Shu is expected to follow a few rules:
1. For now, keep your new designation a secret. Should this designation be shared with anyone without prior authorization, consequences and termination of position are possible. This can be revisited at a later date.
↳ As of w2, you can share your role with ONE non-role person.
2. You may use your knowledge during trial to guide, suggest, or prioritize investigations. If you otherwise distribute any information acquired, it must be done anonymously or without referencing the true source. This can be revisited at a later date.
3. Each week, Security Patrol can do the following:
📹 A. one location can be chosen on Tuesday; this location is where the role can place a video camera, completely separate from the Eudora's system, which is tamperproof and will remain hidden until retrieved.
↳ As of w3, you can place TWO cameras in separate locations.
🔎 B. a second location can be chosen Friday, with two chances to pick again if your choice doesn't get a hit; this is the location which can be investigated before the curfew lockdown is lifted and crime scenes are marked restricted areas prior to being locked down.
Currently, junior crew capsules require a valid explanation as to why you want to check or monitor them, and senior crew capsules are off limits. Anywhere else that has been unlocked on the Eudora is fair game.
4. While patrolling on Friday before lockdown lifts, 1 piece of evidence can be retrieved from the location that you visit. Choose wisely.
↳ As of w3, there is a chance to increase this to TWO pieces of evidence depending on the investigation.
☠️ If Security Patrol finds a dead body, this does not count towards the pieces of evidence that can be retrieved, regardless of whether it's physically located or found in their video log. Adrastea will ensure that the body is brought to trial first thing to give the crew a head start.
5. Once you have completed your patrol, you can choose whether to share the recording (if there is one) anonymously on the public network. If you share it privately, the source of it cannot be revealed at this time.

RESULTS
anyways, the following can be seen entering and milling around the concession area until you all go to the actual showing room:
- Harley and her hyneas
- Sora
- Mizuki
- Shoma and Roboji
- Charles
- Shouxue
- Diluc, bearded
off to watch the glory of shrek you go, and for a while... that's it. but 12:30 hits, and then 1:30 follows - the doors to the multiplex are open again, and a figure leaves in a hurry. it's hard to make out with only the emergency lights for illumination, but this time it's at least easier to see that it's a smaller figure that exits before eventually coming back, after you fastforward enough to get to their return.
the last thing you see, eventually, is yourself exiting to meet adrastea. you may discuss the results here if you like! ]

shu just looks up at the ceiling for a moment ]
I’ve really got to stop sleeping where I put the camera.

[ sounding fascinated by this, in a way, but it's not a good way. ]

[ he'll keep the gift of prophecy if apollo lets him stay in a quiet room. ]
no subject
At least this particular suspect pool is much smaller, given the fact that we can make out the figure coming and going a bit better. Narrowing it down from the group of you in the multiplex further will help.
no subject
... Second opinion: do they look on the smaller side to you?
no subject
Mmhm. So I wouldn't say it was Charles or Ragnvindr. I also wouldn't say it was Shoma, considering they don't look like they're having trouble moving like I would expect him to after his trip.
no subject
So, that leaves... Harley, Sora, Mizuki, and Shouxue.
no subject
Suspect pool narrowed down to four. You could scope them out today, or keep an eye on them tomorrow - depends on what you think would be the best angle to come at it from.
no subject
... I'll think of something. [ me knowing i'm going to pass out in a bit ] Maybe it's better when there's lots of eyes on them. But-- there's nothing stopping them from getting in a pod today, is there?
no subject
... no. But I'll hole up there with Io and Metis to keep an eye on the place. We were running scans on different nanite samples, anyways, so we have a perfectly valid reason for being there all day.
no subject
[ also, honestly, if roboji murdered i'd be fine with that he can do what he wants. ]
