OOC: That was perfect Amber. :) Now get ready for the actual Cross-Examination... BIC: Zack nodded at the testimony. Everything seemed to fit with Mop Top's speech. Of course, it was the Prosecution and Defense's job to bring out the truth of the matter. "Alright. I don't see anything wrong with the Testimony. The Defense may begin their Cross-Examination." "Well, I know we haven't been introduced formally..." She held out her hand for a handshake. "My name is Naminé. It's nice to finally meet you, Denise."
Unless VGN has any objections, I don't see why not. :) I'll get working on the lines as soon as I can. :D You can always re-record the lines if you wish (or just PM me the original recordings). It's up to you if you think the quality would be better otherwise. And thank you. ;)
Man, I wish I could stay up for this, but I'm probably going to have to go get some sleep. :sideways: I'll have to check in the morning. :huh:
Me too. :D
OOC: That's what makes this so exciting. She's pretty much a wild card that neither the Prosecution nor the Defense has any control over. It's better having an outside witness testify than one of us that's pretty familiar with the whole debate...:sly:
Editing mistake. :xp:
OOC: Speak for yourself. This is the first time I've been excited in anticipation all thread. :sweat: BIC: Naminé glanced over at Denise, who just seemed to be doodling or something. She seemed a bit lonely, so Naminé decided to go and make some new friends. After all, the memory witch wasn't involved in this case anyways. She walked up to the court stenographer and gave her a warm smile. "Hello! You're Denise, right?" Kairi was still busy massaging Sora's shoulders, but it seemed the boy didn't even notice. So with a heavy sigh, she gave up and sat back in her seat. She glanced over at Yen Sid and was still amazed on how the wizard could sit there with his crotch on fire for an entire hour and not even flinch. She gave a sideways glance at Riku. "Do you think the judge was being fair with that call?"
:woohoo: Seriously, without you, Demyx just wouldn't have that same "kookiness." (Pun intended) ;)
OOC: I believe Amber's pretty new to the whole RPing thing (unless I missed it somewhere else), so I guess you should ask specifically what she should testify about. Guiding would be nice. She's your defendant after all. ;) It's up to you if you want to wait until everyone else has their say. Zack's pretty much cleared the path...
I used to call it "flicking" until I was told it was "flipping." :sideways: And from what I've watched in sociology class, the very action of doing it represents a man's erect...er...manhood. Mainly in North America it is taken as an insult. However, (don't quote me on this) in the rest of the world, it is a meaningless gesture. Personally, I don't do it and I'm too nice to everyone around me for them to do it to me. Yeah, I know it's more commonplace now than it was in the last decade, but I find it insulting if someone does that to me or my family. :huh: It's a lack of respect... ...but it's okay if you're among friends, I guess.
Coolness. :D *tickle glomps*
OOC: Well, she's been a bit intimidated by our "Repliku-sized posts." But I'm pretty sure she's still in. Just remember that since Demyx is your defendant, the Defense has to be the one to instigate the Testimony. Otherwise, we'll be waiting for Demyx to say something when he hasn't been asked anything yet.
It's pretty simple. All you have to do is write your testimony in bullet points. The Defense will ask you what to testify about and using whatever knowledge you have, you just tell it like it is. Hey, if I can do it, you can do it, Amby. ;) ...Just wait until the Defense (ICSP or *TN*) asks Demyx to testify first.
Well, Amber. You obviously know what's going on in the RP. Please tell me that you're still going to be Demyx and Denise! I've got the perfect sentence ready that I'll know you'll like. :sly:
OOC: And here I thought I was actually going to have to say something. I've been watching the whole thing and the only post I was waiting for was ICSP's, because he should have a chance to defend himself. But geez, you guys pretty much said everything I was about to post. :sweat: Anyway, I needed some time to think about it, so I could think about this logically without any bias. And I'll go talk to Amber in the Cookie Castle if no one's tried PMing her yet. I'd rather her be Demyx than anyone else... ...it also spoils the surprise that I have in store...:sly: But anyway, since all of you have finally got everything out of your systems... ...And remember not to take anything personally. This is Zack's doing, not mine. :sweatdrop: BIC: Zack was busy massaging his temples in frustration. 'So this is what caused the other two judges to go down...' he thought. Taking a deep breath, he said, "Don't insult my intelligence, Janexna or I'm going PG-13 all over your..." He stopped himself and cleared his throat. "The same goes for you Birdman. I can tell perfectly well when someone is biased. But..." His eyes narrowed. "May I remind you four that this trial is about Mullet Head over there, not Zola, and DEFINITELY not Zweiback. Although I may hate all of you to a point, the Defense is just doing their job of trying to defend their client. Attempting to destroy the witness' credibility is frowned upon, I'll admit, but I never said that Sora's testimony was going to be disregarded. Hell, we all know that without him, the Prosecution doesn't have a solid case against Demyx." "Here's how I see things. We've heard one side of the story. Fuzztop even admitted that he was faulty in his actions as well. And being the goody-two shoes he is, it's clear that he's blonde underneath all that brown hair of his." "The evidence that both the Defense and the Prosecution have presented only shows what the water constructs are capable of. This evidence, however, don't change anything. It disproves the Defense's statement that they are only capable of dancing around harmlessly. They can attack and cause physical harm." "However, the Defense's point that the water clones wouldn't have attacked first is also valid. So, their counter is justified." So my judgment on the matter is this. The evidence presented by both the Prosecution and Defense doesn't change anything whatsoever." He turned his glare towards Xelax. "Sora's testimony stands as is. He's been a credible witness so far, but we all know that it's only one half of the story. If you wanted to discredit him as a witness, you should've done it back at Marluxia." Then he whirled around on the Prosecution. "The evidence you've presented doesn't change anything at all. Only that the water constructs are capable of damage...which wouldn't have happened if they hadn't been attacked." OOC: I checked the battle in question myself and it's true that the water clones don't attack unless Sora, Donald or Goofy attack first. :huh: BIC: Finally he turned his stare towards Janexna. "As for you, the counter-evidence that you've presented didn't show anything that we didn't already know. The "player" that was "controlling" Sora was obviously not going to let himself be attacked at all and wouldn't stand around and get damaged. So the counter-evidence to irrelevant evidence was indeed irrelevant as well." "So in conclusion..." Chaotic energy was rising from him in waves. "ALL FOUR OF YOU will be penalized. I told you before that I won't take any crap from any of you. You've wasted enough of this court's time with pointless bickering." Xelax: ! ! ! ! ! Janexna: ! ! ! ! ! Birdman: ! ! ! ! ! Power: ! ! ! ! ! "I don't want to hear any arguments. We all want to get this trial over with, so get Mr. Crew Cut up here so we can finally hear his side of the story." He raised an eyebrow. "And this time, Defense, tell him what to testify about or else he'll just sit around waterlogged and unsure like he's been doing for the past half hour." "WHAT?!" Kairi couldn't help but yelp. "You've gotta be kidding me!" Naminé was just in shock. A quadruple penalty? Either this judge was an idiot or he knew more than he seemed. OOC: Again, please don't hate me for this. :cryinganime:
Okay, look. The digital Twilight Town and everything in it was basically connected to Sora's pod. Roxas was digitized by DiZ. All the events that happened in the prologue was happening in the digital world. And the digital world with Roxas in it, was hooked up to Sora. So when Roxas merged with Sora, all that happened was his digital self and consciousness was fused with the Sora in the real world. Make sense? :huh:
Do you think you could relate to Chisame? How about Setsuna? Ayaka?
Well, I could come out two ways. One end or the other. Up to you. :sweat: But I'll detonate my attack if I'm not out soon. :sly:
Would you object to me going over to Shiki, tying her up and tickle-torturing her for stealing my hypno/tickle questions? :sly: If I ever hypnotized you, what's the first suggestion I'd most likely try out on you? What'd be the second? The third? And after that? How well do you think you know both of my halves?
"Birdman? I never said I was tossing out his testimony. I just said that the Defense had some points and there was not really any new information to add to the Court Record. But if you have evidence that contradicts what the Defense is claiming, the court is all ears." "The Defense claimed the following:" "Keep in mind if the evidence is irrelevant to the Defense's claims, BOTH of you will be penalized."
