WEEK 1 - Trial
| the pygmalion. . . ONLINE  CAPTAIN'S LOG: WEEK (1) |
saturday TRIAL DAY ONE (40) survivors  At 9 AM, a klaxon alarm begins blaring in every area of the ship. The alarm will continue to go off until everyone has gathered in the conference room. Should anyone be running late or avoiding the trial for whatever reason, a robot guide will appear wherever they are and gently but firmly escort them into the room. Once all the living players are present, the conference room doors will lock shut; anyone who wishes to leave for whatever reason will need to ask AL-2955 or one of the robots. Anyone leaving for non-investigative purposes, such as bathroom breaks, will be accompanied by a robot escort. The large round table in the center of the conference room has been set up to help the trial run as smoothly as possible. Three holographic screens hover above the center hollow of the table, visible from every angle. The first screen displays the pictures and profiles of the suspects and victim; the second displays the autopsy report; the third displays a blank word processor. Each of the chairs comes equipped with a virtual keyboard which can be used to type information directly into the third screen, such as theories and updated information; they can also be set into privacy mode, which will transfer whatever notes someone writes directly into their datapad instead of on screen. There's also a tablet function for those who wish to draw charts or pictures on screen. The keyboards will detect the DNA of whoever's using them and record who's typed what - simply press an area of text and the name of whoever wrote it will pop up. The area to the right of the table has been temporarily sectioned off with a glass partition and sliding door for hygienic issues. Inside, the victim's body has been laid out on a metal autopsy table, covered by a plastic sheet. Above it is a holographic screen that displays a close-up color photograph of the body when it was found. A hand sanitizer dispenser has been considerately attached to the wall nearby for anyone getting up close and personal to the body. To the left of the conference table is a display case. Any evidence found during the investigation will be carefully collected by the robots at some point the previous day and placed here before the trial starts. Beneath each piece of evidence is a small tablet where players can type up information, such as a short description or where it was found. There are also empty areas left over for any evidence that may be found during the trial. The shelf at the very bottom of the case has been reserved for an extra rulebook in case anyone needs it. Food will be served throughout the day by the robots, who will take individual orders whenever you're feeling hungry. At 7PM, the trial will adjourn for the day. All players will be escorted by the robots into the cafeteria. From there, they're free to head into the lounge, the viewing deck, the chapel, or back to their rooms. All other areas of the ship have been locked off, and every player will be accompanied by a robot until they return to their room for the night. Any attempts to enter a locked off room or physically interfere with the trial or evidence outside of their room will cause the robot to raise a ship-wide alarm. |

The paper Fumi finds is labeled 'Wedding Expenses'. It goes on to list various elements of a wedding and a projected cost. Some highlights include:
Wedding Cake, Tuscany Made Artisan Chocolate Center - $2000
Performance from The Gavinners - $5000
Address from the President - $100,000
Looks like someone has high hopes for her reception. ]

At least it doesn't seem like it was used for any obviously murderous intents. Somehow Shelley immediately takes it as 'yes, most likely self-defense', as she continues viewing other people's actions according to her own.
So going for the rest of the outfits! There seem to be many dresses, but any of them is bound to have something, right?]
no subject
[ Ugh. She'll just check to see if the desk contents are less stupid, but she doubts it. ]
no subject
The rest of her outfits are fine as well. No tears or stains or anything like that. They're perfect, pretty, and look expensive.
There's not really anything else on the desk besides a an empty cup. Seems like Alita wasn't pursuing any scientific inquiries in her downtime, unlike Fumi. Just indulging in fantasies about her dream wedding. ]
no subject
Nothing here. At this rate you're going to be right and the only thing worth noting is that Alita likes to throw cash down the drain. This isn't how this was supposed to go.
[Shelley has a very optimistic vision of justice and investigations. Realizing it is never so easy and pretty is something she hates. She is getting desperate, to the point that she starts checking the scarves and accessories, hoping Alita had smeared some of that medical goop on any of those or anything incriminatory like that]
What other places could have something? Under the bedsheets, the bathroom...

In the bathroom, Fumi finds some stuff pretty typical of a woman's lavatory. Around the sink are various tubes and boxes of makeup, including eyeliner, a foundation compact, some light colored blush, a few nude lipsticks, and mascara. There's also some brushes lying around for application. Besides that, the shower is still wet, as if she'd taken one sometime that day. ]
no subject
...yeah, you're right. This is useless.
[Maybe she was wrong about suspecting Alita? She is beginning to have doubts, yeah]
no subject
Any non-idiotic murderer would have known we'd be checking their rooms and would have done everything in their power to get rid of the evidence, anyway.
