[Maya's Heart]

[soulping]

[Everything goes white, almost blindingly, as you enter Eveningstar's heart.... it's so overwhelming that you forget, for a moment, what you're doing, why you're here, and details about yourself start to slip---]

[but then it all stops, abruptly, and your senses return to you]

[The Judge pipes up:] Have a care how you speak, Miss Schooler. Otherwise, I might have to penalize you.

[The prosecutor just laughs derisively] No, in this entire place. All of you who came in here.. you're intruders. You're here to destroy everything!

[gandere]

Why is everyone picking on us just for trying to help? [ FLASHES HER BADGE AGAIN BECAUSE WREN BROUGHT IT UP, SEEMS LIKE A GREAT IDEA. ]

See? We're here to help!

[pchaaair]

[quietly:] Maybe they are the splinters.

[and then a bit louder:] We are here to help, okay. If we wanted to destroy everything, we would be causing all of those cracks, and weird tendrils, but do you see any tendrils or cracks on me, and Schooler? I mean, Schooler is kind of weird, sometimes, but she does not actually put cracks in things.

[he thinks.]

[soulping]

[no this is just how it is in for defense attorneys]

I only see you both blundering in here parading as defense attorneys. Do you have any other <font color="orange'>evidence</font> that you're trying to help?

[gandere]

The trial hasn't even started and you want evidence? Sheesh.

Why don't you get this thing started so I can show you up?

[pchaaair]

The sooner this starts, the sooner we can prove that we are actually helping. So, please stop being weird, and grumpy, and let us start?

[soulping]

The trial has started.

Your evidence. Now.

[The Judge seems to agree!]

[gandere]

Are they... [ Groaning as she looks through the evidence.

... presents THE BURGER ??? ]

[pchaaair]

I think they are serious.

Uh. Take that!? Am I saying that right.

[soulping]

[UNIMPRESSIVE]

And your argument with presenting this burger is....?

[they both seem to be losing patience]

[gandere]

This is Eveningstar's favorite food!

... if we weren't here to help her, how would we know that?

[grandstanding]

[from behind them, someone mutters:]

This is a farce.

[soulping]

Is that really the best argument you can come up with?

[About a third of your life bar is flashing! Think fast!]

[gandere]

[ Looking to the others for help. GUYS?? ]

[pchaaair]

[WHAT]

And... um. She gave them to us, because she wanted her friends to taste burgers, once? Plus, we are teammates, when it comes to things like Bakeman! Since, I am Bakeman, and I only want to save the people that I work with, like her. Um.

[grandstanding]

[oh, fine]

If we were going to cause damage to this place, the very first thing we'd do is throw that burger in the trash. That's probably tantamount to treason.

[soulping]

[...the Judge does seem thoughtful at Blade's point]

[the prosecutor, however]

OBJECTION!

What proof do you have of being Bakeman?!

[pchaaair]

[PRESENTS: HIS PROFILE]

TAKE THAT!

Wait. I'm sorry, that was kind of loud. But, take that.

[grandstanding]

[leans around the side to read the profile]

[gandere]

[ Leans with Blade. ]

[pchaaair]

Blade, Schooler, it's my secret identity. Please do not look.

[that defeats the point of a secret identity to say it anyway though wren]

[soulping]

[the Prosecutor staggers back as if physically hit]

U...Ugh!!

[pchaaair]

[—wait]

I'm sorry!?

[grandstanding]

That his argument was so easily destroyed?

[thumbing through his own copy of the profiles since he's still playing catch-up]

[gandere]

Don't read mine. [ Guilt, guilt, guilt. ]

Can we continue already?
