Pretty much I get to take care of troublemakers in court. I won’t be super active, but if you need someone thrown out, just mention me and I’ll be here.

Jury Member Myrtle Crumbs woke with a start. She had arrived late to the proceedings, sneaking in as Mr. Ghostblood had begun his address. By the time he had finished speaking, Myrtle had begun to doze off. Luckily, she was spared the embarrassment of sleeping in court by a clamorous chorus of indubitabilities.

“I unfortunately have not had the pleasure of giving her any cookies. I have given her many hugs though.” I shrug. “Hugs are nice. I like warm hugs.” 
I clear my throat. “May I call a witness?” (I definitely know what I’m doing)

“I call @The Wandering Wizard to the stand to prove that hugs are just as or more valuable as cookies ESPECIALLY if the child’s love language is touch.” 

[RoyalBeeMage he/him]

judge royalbeemage sits back sipping his tea. "this is good stuff. what in it?" he asks @Ravenclawjedi42 while the witness is coming.

[Ravenclawjedi42]

Ráven looked disapprovingly at the jury members who arrived late, but turned and addressed the court. “Chairperson Eddie, ( @Edema Rue ), you did pass this law, correct? I have no memory of it existing.”

@RoyalBeeMage

“Rooibos with a touch of oatly,” they whispered back.

"I was proposing a recess because i had to leave, evidently the court is falling apart already" he lifts his chin. "Let us begin again. from the beginning. High Judge, you may have your gavel back but if you whack it, i will not give it back"

Mr T. T. Ghostblood strode forward slowly and deliberately. He gazed around the room at each and every member of the jury. Finally, he set his suitcase down on a table and withdrew a few papers. He licked his finger and lifted a page. Finally, he cleared his throat and began to speak.

"Your Honor and the jury, before you consider this case I must bring to light the following facts."

he lifted another page, straightened the stack, continued. "Several people have been accepted to various Shardic families in these esteemed forums. Several to different ones. Is it an outlandish proposition that the child can be a part of both families? And, in the situation where there are conflicting interests of the mothers, that perhaps a third party can step in and make the final decision? Your honor, I propose that a regulating authority be brought into the fray. Thus, there is a final authority to conflicts between the two regarding the child."

The lawyer straightened the papers, lifted one, continued, "And, one more thing, I would like to bring to light a law. That law being: she who gives cookies is mother. This was passed on the 32nd of Undecember in the Guilds forum by the Senatus Dessertus, led by Chairman @Edema Rue. Shall I continue?"
