week 4 - trial
[At 9 AM precisely, the old grandfather clock chimes once again, and the doors to the drawing room are opened. They will remain open until everyone has come inside, after which they will shut behind them. It is not possible to leave on your own, although perhaps if you have a specific purpose the hostess will allow you to go, as long as you are accompanied by a partner.
The room is set up comfortably, with several tables by the fireplace set out to assist with the trial. The Hostess will also remain in a seat near the fireplace, next to the scales on the mantle. At lunch, the doors will open to bring in a large meal on an automatically rolling buffet, and at 3 PM, tea and finger sandwiches will be served. You'll be able to enjoy the trial in comfort, of course, but the information cards set out on tables will not allow you to forget your true purpose here.
At 7 PM, the trial will adjourn for the day. Players will be escorted by the Hostess to the ballroom, where dinner and wine will be served until 10 PM, at which point players will be required to return to their wings in groups with their wingmates and will be locked in their bedrooms until 8:30 AM the following morning.]
Gundam Tanaka's room
So, Gundam's room is pretty neat, surprisingly enough. There is a lot of crap lying around, but most of it seems to be pretty deliberate. The bed is made, all of his clothes are hanging in the closet, and his shoes and boots are lined up against the inside of the dresser. That's not to say it isn't a weird room, though.
There are homemade curtains hanging in the windows - he seems to have drawn pentagrams on them, and there is also a large pentagram drawn around the space of the floor in coal dust. His desk chair is set up in the middle of the floor and stacked with books - mostly reference materials from the library about plants and animals, but there are a few fantasy novels as well. Surrounding the chair and spread out over much of the floor of the room is what looks like a complicated hamster obstacle course. There's a maze made out of books, some tunnels made from cardboard tubes, a billiard ball, and some stacked items for climbing. The course circles the chair, and little piles of dried fruit is left at the ends of the various obstacles.
His bed is well made and barely looks slept in; on closer inspection, it seems like he may actually be sleeping in the chair. There is, however, an empty teacup and a few books stacked on his bedside table - there is a very dated book about etiquette and a few books about European history.
In the corner of the room, there is a white dove sitting on what appears to be a coatstand. There is paper lining the floor beneath it, and a cup of dried fruit and bread set out of it.
Gundam shuts the door behind them, and, the whole time Stiles looks around, is watching with suspicion.]

Might as well get down to business though. He heads to the cabinet.]
Mind if I open this? [He's going to, whether Gundam gives permission or not, but he'll try to make it less uncomfortable for the guy at least.]
no subject
[He doesn't seem particularly anxious about it. Inside is what seems to be a school yearbook.]
no subject
Anyway, he'll move onto closet from there, inspecting the clothes and the shoes.]
no subject
Gundam is watching closely.]

Hang on, I'm pretty sure my closet doesn't have this....
no subject
[He stays still, watching. It actually seems to be a panel carved into the wood.]
