—THE SECOND TRIAL—

Once again, at 9 AM sharp, a familiar bell tolls to alert the hour. You've become familiar with the flow of things, haven't you? You know what tod o — find your answers before the final ring chimes. Even if you try to avoid it, eventually your legs will bring you towards where you know you'll have to be. The courtroom doors swing open, welcoming.

Come by again, and it looks just like last week. Take your seat on any one you wish, and peruse the table lined with (non-alcoholic) refreshments and snacks. The same sign, promising a lunch break. And of course, your observers, sitting by the jury's seat shuffling about a stack of papers. Ask your questions and they will answer.

The judge's seat shows the same message as it has always done: "GRANT WE THINE JUDGMENT — ABSOLVE THEE THINE GUILT," and the same, strange, incorporeal form stays seated at the high seat, hand resting unto a gavel's handle.

"Today we will be investigating the cases of: Akeha, Valvatorez, and Vicious. Court is now in session."

The same blue, translucent field prevents you from leaving freely once you're in. You know the drill, don't you?

[ then--he glitches out for a second, and when his form stabilizes again, it's just absolutely slathered in butter. Glistening, dripping butter, from head to toe. ]

[emptied]

[um,]

[alyricalassassination]

[ glances down at his glistening metal hand, butter slowly seeping into the seams of the metal plating. He clenches it into a fist. ]

If this is my penance for violence...then so be it.

[emptied]

... Please at least pretend to be disgusted by it. It's getting in your prosthesis.

[alyricalassassination]

Better butter than blood.

[unbested]

Oh... that's like a tongue twister.

[ ...but also why are you buttery ]

[alyricalassassination]

A twister of the tongue and the morals.

[ but also let it be known that after 5 minutes of butter, it disappeared and he is now butterless. ]

[unbested]

[ congrats on your new life as a butterfree ]

[notbymyside]

[Ssssso is he getting hit by a butter-fist? Or...]

[alyricalassassination]

[ no, the buttering happens right after the punch. you get an unbuttered fist to the jaw. ]

[notbymyside]

[Welp.

He's already been shot twice, might as well add punched to that too. But at least there's no buttery sheen on him.]
