fandomhigh | Forensic Science, Wednesday 2/14, 5th period

There were wee heart lollipops alongside the lab coats this week as the students filed into the Danger shop. Abby was sitting on one of the lab counters, her pigtails held up with bright red fuzzy ties.

"Happy Valentines Day, guys! Eat your suckers during the lecture because you are not going to want to take them into the practical this week." Grinning at the students, she clapped her hands. "This week we're going to be using the forensic skills you've learned to find out what happened at a crime scene. The only catch is that you won't be the only people there this week. You'll be dealing with other departments, people who will be in charge, people who might mess up your crime scene. As always, you want to figure how what happened to the victim, but this week you're going to learn how to deal with firemen and cops. Cooperation is key, guys. You're an important part of the team so don't let them walk all over you...but don't get too uppity. They can throw you off the crime scene. Today that'll mean you get a lower grade but in the field it'll mean that you can't do your job and evidence could get lost or destroyed while they wait for a replacement."

Passing out handouts and messenger bags to each of the students, Abby talked a little about the tools that they'd find inside. A camera for crime scene photos, several evidence bags and vials, notebook and pens, and most importantly, identification. "Crime scenes can be like circuses and being the lab geek means that not everyone at the scene will know who you are. Unless you want to be tossed into the back of a police car, keep your ID on you at all times."

Opening the door of the lab, she ushered the students through. Instead of walking into the crime scene like usual, the scene was set outdoors. They stood in front of a burnt out shell of a house, still smoking in places as ~~NPC~~ firefighters crawled over it. The stench of burning wood was heavy in the air as Abby directed them to three firefighters who were waiting near the front door.

"Go get 'em!"

[ooc: OCD up! Go ahead and play!]

Grab your labcoat and lollipop in a collapsey fashion please!

Talk to Abby, ask questions, eat your suckers!

[ooc: Handout = things you need to figure out in crime scene threads]

Pippi, Annette and Dean, the three firefighters were standing by the front door; ready to take the students through the house to the crime scene. Don't they look hot in their gear?

[ooc: Wait for the firefighters to ping in first, please! There's three of them so try and even things out when getting one of them to take you through]

Sakura, M and Z, the three cops are waiting at the entrance to the bedroom crime scene; ready to take the students from the firefighters and be in charge of them at the crime scene. Don't they look arresting in their uniforms?

[ooc: Again, wait for them to ping in and as there's three of them go ahead and try to even things out amongst yourselves.]

The burned bedroom is pretty barren. The bed and it's occupant is a burned up mess, the vague lumpiness of the mannequin showing the students where the 'person' died. A dresser off to one side of the room holds a couple of items (you should talk to the cops about them). Your dead person isn't the mannequin but the black cat on the floor nearby. Knowing Faithful, probably ready with a snarky reply or two....or ten.

[ooc: Faithful isn't really dead so normal playing rules apply. Don't do anything to the character if you haven't checked with the mun first. The mannequin is really dead though! Yay for dead plastic things!]

Test the evidence! Go over crime scene photos! Talk about the cops and firefighters!

No bad guys this time, just Abby sitting in front of a laptop where she's watching tapes of how you interacted with the other departments. Go ahead and present your theorys of how this crime happened.

[No bad guys to mod this time but you can still mod how you think the whole thing went down.]

Thanks to Faithful for dying for us this week! Thanks to Annette, Pippi and Dean for playing firemen and women! Thanks to Sakura, M and Z for being our cops!

You all rock so very, very much!

Pippi stands by the front door, acting like a tough-as-nails fire-person.

Annette pushed her firefighter goggle like glasses back up on her nose and hooked her thumbs through her red suspenders at her waist. She chewed some bubblegum as she waited for the students to arrive, popping bubbles and maintaining her authoritive stance with her booted feet braced apart.

Every now and then she would rock back on her heels and snap her suspenders. She did wish there was a firefighter dog though. She could really go for one of those.

M really didn't have to work that hard to look stern and intimidating. She stood near the entrance to the room, radio in hand, glaring at the students as they approached.

William Kessler

Dean stood at the door, waiting. He may have been enjoying playing a fireman a little too much.

Faithful was on the floor, looking very dead, really. Ignore his playing with a ball of fluff he found.

Ami Mizuno

Lana Lang

The look on Sakura's face might have been interpreted as stern and forbidding.

In reality it was a mixture of "How did I get roped into this?" and chagrin at realizing that the uniform she was wearing was one she'd appropriated from a guard at the Shina Heavy Industries facility during an undercover operation.

Not that you could tell the difference.

Lana made sure her ID was showing and walked up to one of the firefighters. "Hi, she said. "I'm Lana Lang one of the crime scene investigators. I was told you'd be able to take me to the scene."

Z stood there with her arms crossed, attempting to look Very Serious. Her uniform was definitely not what police officers wore in modern times, but hey, it was what she had.

Zero Hopeless-Savage

Dean looked her over. "Not until you're dressed properly. Go get a turncoat and boots. We don't need any more additions to the casualty list."

M. Parker

Parker's feeling those nic cravings again afte Sunday's backslide. So she's definitely licking that lollipop to death while she has it.

"Hey, Pippi." Parker tapped her Crime Scene Investigation ID on her lab coat, and coughed a little from the dissipating smoke. "Ready to guide me through the wreckage?"

Interestingly enough, Pippi, who had taken Jarod's "pretending" class, sort of based her tough-as-nails firefighter persona on Parker.

"Hey Parker." she said glancing at the ID. "Sure thing, it's still a little hot in there but it's safe enough. You got good shoes on?"
