My friends:
In case you haven't been keeping track...
I am set to appear in court to face various charges.
(This will probably be a short thread but with a lot of Moynalogues. It will only cover the part where Christian is questioned and cross-examined, while he is waiting for the jury to decide, and when the jury comes back with a verdict. That's the only part that's important because that's the part where Christian's going to blow the government's whole gig to smoke.)
These are not charges that I will take lying down. For one, my rights as a Special were violated both during my interrogation and my arraignment, and it's time our government put an end to all ability-centered discrimination. More importantly, however, the government has been harboring a secret from its people that is not only of far-reaching consequences, but that it failed to act upon in a timely manner.
Originally, I planned to keep their secret to avoid causing public concern, but being arrested for trying to save the country tends to change one's perspective.
I am hoping to see at least a few familiar faces during the trial, particularly my friends to support me. (Or who just want to be there out of curiosity or to watch him drown in his own arrogance. Whatever you like.)
Lucius, Maurelle, Alex, Niri, and Alice immediately come to mind. The Rahals and perhaps Frank Rook as well. I do not expect to see anyone there, but standing alone will be so much more difficult.
Gabriel has already given his word that he will be there, and Dakari is my lawyer. (Laz, if you want to throw a lawyer at this too, you're more than welcome to. They can cross-examine Christian too. I don't know if tag-teaming is something that actually happens in courts, but hey, this is fiction!)
I imagine that my closer friends would sit together, and perhaps nearer to me. But, again, I do not expect anything. I'm only hoping for it.
(Post here if you're interested, or let me know somewhere else. Also, BG, if you want to jump in, let me know beforehand so I know not to use any icons.)
