MAGICAL FUN SLEEPOVER PARTY

[weeabird]

[ Time to hang out on this set for a children's show and never sleep or eat fried chicken again. ]

[ Except Taka. Taka is still loving the fried chicken. ]

[Well that was a nice long night of not sleeping, though Bobby doesn't seem particularly affected. Now he's poking at the syrupy bun of a McGriddle with a plastic fork like he can't understand it.]

[weeabird]

[Simon watches him idly. I mean, what else is he going to do.]

[thefaceofjustice]

What do you want to do, Prosecutor Blackquill? Someone volunteered to take all the votes. So we're going along with that, right?

[Offers him the fork with a big piece of pancake-bun speared on it. Hungry?]

[weeabird]

Yes. But things won't be so simple.

[At first moves to push it away, then changes his mind and reaches for the fork instead.]

[thefaceofjustice]

[Hands it over, then takes off a piece of the cheese for himself.]

You mean people might not comply with voting plans? There does seem to be a lack of accountability...

[weeabird]

Exactly. Engarde, for one, is something of a wild card. I've no doubt there are others who are simply waiting to gum up the works.

[Takes a bite. It beats prison food, anyway.]

We must be vigilant.

[thefaceofjustice]

Wait, I just remembered, isn't he a convict? And he's loose?????? I need to get some shackles on him!

[weeabird]

Heh. Watch that he doesn't claw your eyes out - after all, you wouldn't want to make Taka jealous.

[thefaceofjustice]

A violent criminal... Hm, doesn't look like I have the extra shackles on me. Maybe we can detain him in one of the rooms.

[weeabird]

He could borrow mine.

[Holds up his wrists to display the shackles he has already broken and laughs.]

Besides that, he's not the sort of person who gets his hands dirty, so detaining him will do little good. He'll more likely go against the voting. I don't think it would be wise to attempt to confiscate his tablet, either; the hosts are rather trigger happy.

[thefaceofjustice]

I know! We could monitor his and everyone else's votes! Just get everyone to show their screen as they cast it!

[Which is maybe cheating...]

[weeabird]

A splendid notion. Ours can be the next heads to roll.

[thefaceofjustice]

Justice is ever vigilant!

[weeabird]

...Let's start by simply encouraging everyone to vote appropriately.

[thefaceofjustice]

Good idea, and we can set you up with people for private interrogations, like we do with witnesses!

[weeabird]

Well, what do you know? Even a dotard like you has a sensible idea from time to time.

[robosb4bros]

I'm fairly certain it's meant to be food.

[thefaceofjustice]

[Stops picking at it and salutes in greeting.]

Oh, Ms. Blackquill! How are things going with you and Prosecutor Blackquill?

[robosb4bros]

Neither of us were placed in a deep fryer, so there's that. You seem cheery this morning.

[thefaceofjustice]

Do I? I haven't slept a wink!

[robosb4bros]

As a homicide detective, I'd think you'd have a tougher stomach.

[thefaceofjustice]

Well... I'm not sure I've seen anything as bad on the force as someone being live deep-fried...

But besides, I need to keep an eye out! I have a responsibility to protect Prosecutor Blackquill!

[It was either that or protect other people from him. Close enough, right?]

[robosb4bros]

So the unnatural foodstuffs are meant to keep anyone from coming too close?
