~~*Organzation XIII goes to court*~~

OOC: Dead horse?? ><

And I don't know what to do with Luxord, due to the fact Erkz has neither decided to come back, so ergo, he has not picked a sentencing for Luxord which I gave him a few fair ideas.

 

About Erkz...

OOC: Okay, I've been talking with Erkz and he said that he's realized his absence has been lagging the RP. So he's requested that since I'm a neutral party that I take over for judge temporarily until he gets back. Now I know that I've been mainly been on Repliku and Pika_Power's side outside this thread. But let's say Zack (of all people) gets promoted from bailiff to judge. He's unbiased toward both sides due to the fact that he hates everybody. So none of that "He's on the prosecution's side" or vice-versa.

In other words, if Zack does become judge, I promise to be as fair as possible and maybe we'll be able to get through these cases much more faster than we've been going for the past few months. :)

So are there any objections or do you still want to wait around for Erkz? :huh:

 

OOC: I have no problems with you running the Judge since yeah, you aren't already a prosecutor or defense attorney. How about not using Zack though since the way you have casted him is as evil and only held in restraints by law etc? You could instead say Judge Erkz had to go for an appointment and walk a new Judge in to resume court business since you've been keeping up etc.

 

OOC: Maybe...but it wouldn't be as interesting, though, don't you think? I mean, Zack would still be kinda restrained by the fact that since he's only a proxy, Erkz could always come back and overturn his decisions. Plus, just because he calls himself "evil" doesn't mean that he necessarily is. He's like Riku said, he's just a poser. :p

Besides...we've had nicety-nice judges so far. Having a judge that everyone actually fears or is annoyed with would make the proceedings a bit more...random. :D

...Well, that and the fact that adding a second custom character would be a bit unfair to everyone else, right? :huh:

BIC: "Naminé!" Kairi couldn't believe what she was seeing. As soon as Roxas started tickle torturing her poor sole, Naminé had let out a shriek before her body jerked once and fainted from the over-stimulation. Before Roxas could do anything naughty, Kairi pulled Roxas away, put Naminé's sandal back on and smacked Roxas across the back of the head. "What the hell is wrong with you?!" She picked up Naminé in her arms and gently placed her unconscious form in Repliku's lap. "Could you please watch over her while I get something to revive her?"

Zack noticed that the judge's eyes were glazed over and unfocused. Not knowing what else to do, he bounded up to the judge's level and started shaking his shoulder. "Yo, judge. You still with us?"

 

OOC: If others are for it, I'm fine with it. I just was voicing the concern but it could work out fine.

Repliku stared at Namine as she was plopped into his lap. Oh man, he didn't want anymore trouble with this girl...but he didn't think what Roxas was doing was exactly 'gentlemanly' either. He took her and sat her down beside him carefully and then took a seat back in his chair and looked at Roxas. "Can you stop it now?"

"Wow, Kairi sure showed you. Maybe you ought to calm down now, Roxas." Sora snickered though he did look over at Namine, wondering if she'd be okay...who passes out from tickling?

Riku looked over at the scene unfolding there and shook his head. He then turned back to see what was going to happen with the case.

 

Kairi flashed a smile at Repliku. "Thank you." Then without another word, she grabbed her purse, headed down the steps of the witness box and headed out for the courthouse shopette. 'Maybe they have smelling salts or something...' she thought.

 

Mewtwo was stuck for a second, unaccustomed to talking about himself . "I was never a doll, or treated as you were. I was considered a pokemon. In their eyes, a weapon. So you see, they left me little choice. Erasing their memories was the easiest route. Considering we were on the top of a mountain, I think it was a relatively merciful action."
Mewtwo looked at the girl on Repliku's lap, a bit confused. "You humans always surprise me. You got your memory twisted by her. She wrecked what fragment of life you had. Why do you protect her? You can think clearly and you use the darkness, something that draws out emotions such as anger, hate or revenge. you certainly have the means to destroy her. Why not?" Mewtwo was genuinely interested. He did not quite understand him.

Roxas jumped away from Namine, A bit shocked. "What happened to her? Is she okay?!"
Worried, he glanced around. He remembered Kairi's face, and decided he should probably let them have some time alone. Before anyone could object, he walked over to Axel and sat down beside him. "Tap-dancing? Really? I guess if you feel that strongly about it..." Roxas let it hang in the air, then punched Axel's shoulder, laughing. "Axel, I am sure I speak for anyone in earshot when I say 'What the hell?'"


Donald and Goofy heard the scream, and leaped up, weapons at the ready.

 

Repliku looked at Mewtwo and listened to his words. "Yeah, in that way I guess you were merciful". His question wasn't one of challenge it seemed but actual curiosity. He knew the same words from some others would have been an attempt at brainwashing and control. It was kind of refreshing in a way. He looked over at Namine and then back at Mewtwo. "I guess in the end I'm not mad enough to want revenge for things she did because it wasn't really what she wanted to do. Marluxia, Larxene and Vexen are responsible for it and she was just a tool. Being one myself, I know how it is to be forced or conned into doing things that otherwise I might have never thought up. Also, though the memories of a life were fake, at least it had some kindness in it so I could learn off it and so I don't want to waste my time just hating anymore. There are a few people I may never forgive but they don't care any way. It seems maybe finally she actually does."

 

So, Pika, *TN*, are you guys okay with Zack taking over as judge until Erkz gets back?

I promise he'll be as fair as possible. :D

 

OOC: I don't have any problem with Zack taking over. It's all cool as long as we can move on I guess. Also, I'm sure that *TN* won't mind either, considering she's also been waiting for a while. Anything to get us out of this rut, at the moment. If necessary, for some out of the world reason, then the sentences can be changed later on by Erkz or something.

Axel pondered over that dream and his spiked cup of coffee from earlier when suddenly he felt a familiar presence take a seat next to him. He hadn't really talked to the blond since the Captain Sparrow, rum and getting wasted incident, and it felt like eternity since then. The trial was halted for some reason, and it seemed like an 'automatic break' moment again, so everyone was, once again, fooling around. Looking at the boy, Axel wondered why he'd co— wait . . . considering he'd just screamed out his name and something about tap dancing, it only figured that the boy would make his way up here sooner or later. “Hey, Roxas.†He grinned, rubbing his shoulder. Not because the small punch hurt him, it was merely a gesture. “Hmm . . . Actually, I was thinking more of Ballet . . . Let's put you in a pink tutu and have you perform The Nutcracker on stage . . . I think my coffee was spiked.â€

 

Roxas had a thought. "Okay Axel, I would love to do that! It sounds like fun!" Roxas grinned at the look on Axel's face, then contiinued. "But before I squash that last bit of reputation I have left, I would like to share a blue paopu fruit with Riku." Roxas' grin grew wider. "Whaddya think? We could get ol' Marly to join in too!"

OOC: Killing Erz? Fine by me!

 

OOC: We aren't exactly killing him . . . just taking his spot until he's free from reading and deciphering from those little symbols which we call a code. xO

“Blue . . . paopu fruit?†Axel asked, a little confused, and a little suspicious. “Why?' Oh, he was up to something, most definitely. What surprised him even more was the fact that Roxas actually agreed to perform The Nutcracker in a pink tutu . . . strange indeed. Was he still dreaming? No, he wasn't, for his head was pounding with pain, and it felt pretty damn real. “Er . . . why the heck would I include Flower Power into this? He's fine at that gutter of a place.†Referring to the Fanfiction world, where he was dealing with is hilarious sentence. “Let's hope he stays there . . . but why a blue paopu fruit?â€
If there was something the boy was hiding, or planning, he was going to get to the bottom of it beforehand.

 

Roxas whistled innocently. "No reason. It's just something I wanted to do a couple of days before doing ballet."
Roxas sat back, smiling. Let Axel wonder. I am sure he will appreciate the joke once it is over. Roxas lazily answered Axel's question about Murluxia. "Oh yeah, I would love flower power to join in. Perhaps we could invite mans - Excuse me, I mean Xemnas too? Could we also include some nudity?"
A problem struck Roxas. What if Mansex's toyboy does not eat the fruit? "But if I can't share the fruit, the deal's off."

Changing the topic slightly, Roxas whispered to Axel cheekily, "Let's try and make up names for people in the courtroom! Whaddya think of this one for Riku: Mansex's toyboy!" Roxas stiffled a giggle. "Your turn. How about one for him?" Roxas pointing at Yen Sid, wondering what Axel would come up with.

OoC: Pyro, have you read any of D.F.'s fanfics? Oh, and yes, I am shamelessly referencing them.

Mewtwo nodded understandingly. "So you are tired of the fight. I can accept that. But what about now? You have been resurrected, yet you seem to be confined to this courtroom. After this, are you return to your past state, or are you free? You are not out of the fight yet. You may be able to escape, but I would seriously consider your future. You have never run before, but you may reconsider."

 

OOC: I am quite familiar with them, Pika, and I know exactly what's on Roxas' mind . . . though Axel doesn't. xD

“What's wrong with you, Roxas?†said Axel, placed a hand on his forehead as if he was taking his temperature. “You're more devious than usual. It's usually I, who come up with all the pointless things to do . . . what are you on?†Roxas was really being extra idiotic today, not that it was a bad thing of course. It was rather amusing for Axel. Taking the hand off of Roxas' forehead, he rubbed his chin, wondering what made Roxas so freaking hyper, more so than usual. “Roxas, I've known you long enough to know that there's something on your mind. And considering that you're being extra hyper today, I just know that whatever you've got in mind, it somehow does not have a happy ending for . . . me.†He eyed him suspiciously, finishing the sentence. Truthfully, Axel was proud to see him taking after him. A Kodak moment. “No blue paopu fruit. You do the The Nutcracker in a pink tutu, and I'll even throw in my awesome hair gel . . . and a month supply of Sea-Salt ice-cream. Deal or no deal?
“ . . . uhh, that guy seriously looks like a child molester.†He mumbled. He reminded hin of Herbert, though Vexen would fit that description better. “Ye Old Sex Master?†He shrugged, he'd gotten nothing.

 

OOC: Nice referance, Pika.

And @DF: Now that you're the judge, could you pick from one of these optional punishments for Luxord?
I do plan on running out, but not forver.

a.) Luxord is sent to different "Costume worlds", and must help the denizens of said worlds to move onto the next one. Goes on as long as I can think of different old and new costume worlds. (No longer an option)

b.) Luxord is sent into any one Live-action Disney movie, of my choice.
Won't be PoC, since it's already been done ironically. xD (No longer an option)

c.) Luxord is stuck in the castle from Super Mario 64, but without Mario.

d.) Luxord is sentenced to spend one day in the Cartoon network show: Chowder. One day will probably make him go mad. It is a very annoying show with a very annoying main character.

EDIT: NEW OPTIONS DUE TO COMPLICATIONS:

e.) Luxord is sent into any Adam Sandler movie of DF's choice. I just wouldn't be able to decide..xD

f.) Luxord is sent into the 1950's.
Just pick, so I can work off of one.

I think it's time Luxord was sentenced, so you can just skip to that I guess...I don't know.

BIC:

Luxord eyed the Glazened-eyed judge curiously.
If he croaked then what happens to me?
Luxord asks himself, showing that chilvary isn't dead.

Luxord budged a bit in his seat, nervous of the outcome.
Whatever it will be[The sentence], I will run anyhow.
Luxord plotted, eyes peering at the court room doors.

 

OOC: I don't really think we need a judge, at least for now. We can always leave Luxord pending (which court sometimes do when there are many people being prosecuted in a group), have him sit back down, and go ahead with Demyx's case, then they can receive their verdict at the end. Zack can write the arguments for the judge to look over since the judge is out of focus or you can make up a one hour long disease, and give the green light for the Defense and Prosecutors to continue. I think that would be a better way to do this so it is fair to everyone from both sides.

The thing is, now, ICSP is out until Sunday, and I don't want to start without him :/. I mean, you know, if he had some things to say. I guess we can prepare Demyx up, though.

She stretched her arms wide as she grunted in her self-induced sleep, breathing out a long haul of wind, before fluttering her eyes open, killing the wonderful dream she was having. It seemed her body was refreshed enough and not tired, and weakly looking around in a daze, she saw nothing had changed. The judge was still looking into another world, Luxord was in the same place...and she thought that the verdict must have not been given, or else Xelax would've woken her up. Oh man, what would she give to get out of this court room. She had packs of Skittles, but those were merely sweets, and now, she needed food.

Her stomach growled in agreement.

"Yeah, yeah!" Axel began to sing once more in his perfect Steven Tyler impersonation as he cracked on Marluxia. "Dude looks like a lady! Yeah, yeah-" He gestured with his hand to the only girl with them in the vortex of this fanfiction realm, right next to him.

"Dude, looks like a lady!" Larxene joined in earnestly, a evil and nasty little smirk on her face as her slick, yet big doe eyes stared at Marluxia in cruel spirit, who appeared like he wanted to guillotine their heads off, but remained admirably collected. Ever since knowing Marluxia's punishment, they've done nothing except to waste time teasing and taunting him with whatever, gay, trans, queer jokes and songs they can come up with. A game to see how much longer can the Graceful Assasin stay calm. It was strange at first for her, seeing as she was teaming up with Axel somewhat, and the last time they ever got together that was similar to this was to give ill humor to Vexen back at that damned castle. Yet, she could not pass up this opportunity. Is not like she was going to be all kinds of goodness to any Axel after this one small goal.

Giggling, she simply tilted her head innocently at her former partner, enjoying this for what it was. It gave happy tickles to her hidden sadism that wanted some blood. Larxene knew first hand that while Marluxia remained relaxed for most of the time, he also had a awful temper once things start to irritate him, or even, not go his way.

"I hope you know that you're both making fool out of yourselves," Marluxia stated plainly, though his tone quite tight as if holding back animosity to their immature actions. Perhaps they were a bit too bored, and being as he had the "amusing" verdict, he was the prime target. He knew Larxene was doing it to fulfill her usual lust of seeing someone on the spot, yet Axel, he was sure, was doing it because he didn't like him. Hmm. The "feeling" was mutual then. However, he was slowly getting out of his wits to not summon his scythe and slash them in half. A half hour of these specific two ganging up on you, will do that. Especially, as they were aiming at your manhood. In fact, he never noticed how much Axel and Larxene resembled each other in certain aspects.

"She had the body of a Venus, Lord, imagine my surprise...ironic enough, that was my first impression when I saw you," Axel went to whisper loudly in a sing-song voice, getting in one more line, seeing Marluxia give him fleeting, sharp glance, ignoring that he just called him and Larxene immature. So what? It was in Marluxia's expense, and something needed to be done to have some fun in this otherwise dull place. It felt like waiting on the doctor's office. And there was nothing to do anyway. While he was sprawled on the platform lazily, sitting, as his arms were on the back supporting his weight, Larxene was beside him, laying on her stomach as her chin rested on her hands. Axel had always kind of suspected Larxene had this childish naïveté about her, sometimes creepy as some would call it, in the way that she dubbed her victims cutely like a three year old girl "toys", and sometimes "pure", as she was quite coquette and playful... when she was in a good mood. That proved so as his eyes trained on her raised legs swinging back and forward like a kid watching a ant crawl on the ground in interest, and he smirked to himself. She could seriously fool anyone with that face and that deceiving innocence.

Being as he was written, his eyes trailed on her figure from top to the bottom, though when Marluxia said something, it distracted him from his "studying".

"I would be surprised, Larxene, that you're actually joining him, considering on the way he used you before," Marluxia casually commented, who unlike the other two, was leaning on the wall on his feet, trying to drift away from the current "conversation" that centered on him. Yet, his curiosity was peeked. He had seen how Larxene was with Axel in the past, and while he never bothered to question it, or even cared, it was something that seemed appropiate to question. "But I should figure, that you always had some spot for him within you."

Larxene just gave a mocking smile, though her face was soured at the last added sentence. "Oh, it doesn't mean anything. Is more like me joining to pick on you, than him, actually. And trust when I say, I thoroughly despise his every cell. Funny, though, how you don't mention you were just his pawn as much as me." She fluttered her eyes when she saw him become disgruntled, knowing that nothing angered him more than aiming at his pride. Either way, she gazed at him intently, though more piercing, as her memory went back to her trial. "However, you're no better. Guess I was being played by two. What would have happened if this whole plan would've worked?"

Marluxia chuckled deeply. "I don't know. What would have? Would you have remained loyal?"

"Maaaaybe," she emphasized enigmatically and playfully, a devious grin forming on her face as she replied truthfully, her eyes fixing on her gloved nails. "Depends on what I would have gained in the long run. Would you have remained loyal to me?"

"Depending whether you were for or against. If it came down to getting rid of you at the time for further order, I would not hesitate," Marluxia replied, sounding as if he was talking about the weather instead of what would be their supposed flawed team up of betrayal. It was a shame, that they couldn't feel the guilt to be able to stop themselves and cared. His own smirk built up as he eyed the blonde woman, who appeared to know all this and was just requesting for outloud confirmation. "You can never be too careful, you're not one to stay second to anyone else."

Larxene laughed at that, though it didn't have cheer. "I suppose, I'm not one to being a sidekick level. Of course, not that you would've gotten rid of me that easily." The look she had on her furthered that point. She could be just as guileful if need be, the problem was, that she was foolish that time to place her trust in anyone. And she fell on this with Axel the most. "Power is tempting, and I know is what you wanted, no matter if you didn't give me reason enough."

"And you weren't?"

She raised a eyebrow knowingly. "I was more in for respect." She didn't bother to explain herself, because really, it wasn't like it mattered anymore, did it? Still...Castle Oblivion was such a lovely little playhouse, she thought almost bitterly, yet she found it funny at the same time. Hmm. Well, that surely proved never to trust men. Like if life hadn't taught her to fend for yourself before all that.

Axel had chosen to listen and be silent as this odd, yet revealing discussion took on between the two, spoken coldly and closely recalling them as it was a joke in itself, feeling in his skin the tension and atmosphere change. He wasn't there at that time, but referring to simply this, he wondered how in the world did anyone in that building cooperated. His vision simply shifted from one to the other quite nonchalantly, everything lapsing into a weak quiet air, not to mention, a uncomfortable one. Axel didn't mind though, he just closed his eyes and smiled at the whole thing. The story of traitors, how quaint. Though, while he was kind of proud of what his other look-alike had done, bravery had to be given to these modern Bonnie and Clyde to actually do what he knew many members were imprisoned on: Xemnas rule. It was a basic do or die situation that was a unspoken law.

Despite that, he began to ponder over why this was lasting so long. Was the CEO waiting for something in particular? Because really, while he was glad to have Larxene's company, having her, him, and Marluxia now in the same room was awkward. He was befuddled that the only fight he had was with her. And that was predictable.

But it seemed he had a knack on cues, because at that moment, a booming, dark, yet suave male voice welcomed them, and soon after, the floor shook, until the platform moved up suddenly like a quick elevator, as they headed to the destination they were set a path for. He eyed Larxene who now laid on her back as her blue eyes stared upward, and then Marluxia, who was standing up smoothly.

 

OOC: Really? The only thing that's kept us from continuing is a judgment on Luxord. And if we do go to Demyx, we'll need a judge eventually to keep things in order. :huh:

Despite the clashes we had in the past outside this RP, I promise you that Zack won't be biased.

I talked to ICSP as well, and he said that he doesn't care either way.

If Zack WERE to become judge and rule against Luxord, I was planning to have the sentence be a Submission street-fight against Zack, so Base would get his fight, Zack would get to pummel someone and the punishment would technically be lighter than Marluxia and Larxene's. :p

Of course, it would only happen if the prosecution and defense agree that Zack would have those rights.

Besides, you might actually be interested in Demyx and Axel's sentences...:sly:

Aaaanyway...

BIC:

Zack shook the judge roughly and was slightly startled when Erkz' head slammed into the desk as if the life were cut out of him. "Oh crap." He looked at the double doors of the courtroom as if expecting another judge to come in to take over. When there wasn't any, he began to feel slightly nervous. Of course, he didn't show it. His eyes scanned the table for a clue of what to do in this situation. Finally, his eye caught a familiar-looking orange book. Picking it up, he muttered to himself, "Judging for Dummies."

Dummies? Preposterous! He was an evil genius! He didn't need no...

He quickly opened the book and looked for anything that might help in this situation. After scanning for a few moments, he found what he was looking for. "Judge Pro Tem," it said:

He stared at the page for a long moment. He could do it, couldn't he? He was more than qualified (and a lot more reliable). Before anyone could say anything, Zack scooped up the inactive judge and sped toward the hospital ward. After making sure that the judge was comfortable beside his father, Judge Erkz, the bailiff ran all the way back to the courtroom.

After making it to the judge's bench and sitting in Erkz' vacant chair, Zack said, "Due to unforseen circumstances, Judge Erkz has been temporarily removed from his position as overseer of this courtroom. Don't worry, though. Under the current circumstances, I will be acting as judge pro tem until the judge returns, due to being the only one qualified (and available) for this position." He smirked. "Now I believe we were about to rule on Luxord..."

Kairi came in with smelling salts tucked safely in her purse when she heard the tragic news. The bailiff as judge?! "Oh, we are so screwed," she muttered.

 

ooc: I really need to pay more attention DX​

"So whatcha drawing?" Demyx asked the young teen beside him.

Denise looked up. "I'm... not really sure..." she laughed a little. "It's someone's head, I think."

When they heard Axel's outburst, they both just sat there and blinked.

"Did someone spike his coffee or something?" Denise asked.

Demyx laughed. "Maybe..."

Denise pointed. "Is that dude taking over as judge?"

He looked and saw that indeed, Zack was taking over. This can't be good... he thought.​

 

OOC: I thought we were being held on about what to do, whether to continue without Erkz's ruling or not. Whatever the case, it doesn't matter, obviously. I asked of ICSP cause he's gone until Sunday (and I don't think is good to start without him, as he might have something to argue) so the best we can do is set Demyx up with the charges, and get ready.

But are you going to do what Base asked for in a earlier post (cause he kind of put something...there, and I don't know if you plan on taking one of them...).

Janexna was still halfway asleep, as she was just finished waking up, so when she heard that the judge was moved away because of something and taken somewhere else, and Zack of all people, was going to be the new judge, she had to do a double take, and blink, wondering if she was still dreaming. How many judges did they have to go through now? And....Zack? The womanizer? It didn't matter if he was judge, the verdict might be different, but as Marluxia was one of the worse ones, he only got to be in a M-rated yaoi fic...that was kind of horrible. She really wouldn't want to be forced and stay stuck in a fanfiction world while making love or kissing another girl. That would be really hard, and she halfway wondered if Marluxia was going to go through with it, or else he's going to be there for awhile. The point was, it could not be as bad as that. But Zack as a judge...flirt, violent, and all. Not that she didn't like him, but his personality was very...eccentric?

Thank goodness Larxene's trial was over before he took the judge's seat though, her punishment might've been something naughty of that sort. That is, if Larxene didn't castrate his manhood in the long run. Either way...was this it? Now to Demyx?

 

Zack twirled the gavel in his fingers. He had forgotten what true power felt like...

Sitting up straight, putting on his mirrored sunglasses to prevent people seeing what he was looking at (he gave a slight glance at Janexna's chest) and summoned up the holographic display of the Court Record. "So, just to be final and clear, the charges are:

2 Counts of Theft.
4 Count of Attempted Aggravated Assault
4 Count of Coercion.
1 Count of Assault.
1 Count of Grievous Bodily Harm.

I believe that's what the Prosecution and the Defense agreed on, right? It was originally 1 count of Attempted Aggravated Assault and 1 Count of Coercion, but Janexna...excuse me, the Defense increased it to 4. Any other objections?" He raised the gavel, daring someone to object...
