Immortal Platypus

right now we're not talking about you, we're talking about Noodles as far as I understood. But if you are convicted, there is a possibility of death.

uh, probably. We can always use extra prosecuting attorneys and witnesses if you want. don't worry, this is in a remote location and the job comes after the trial, if Noodles is convicted, so it'll be fine!

wait. 4 dimensional beings? I thought we were three dimensional.

I didn't need to earn it. I assign roles for the trial, so this is now her job. She can have her privileges un-unrevoked afterwards, I don't care that much.

she's just paranoid. I don't know if we can have such a person as our prosecuting attorney

oh, it's that one. it's okay, i thought that was going to be much worse I'm always scared when I see people mention me here

this is really weird. I'm on a computer rather than a chromebook and the sparkles look different here Shortcake, I un-revoke your fire privileges. for our trial, you can light the celebratory candles of Noodles' death if he's convicted and executed stop lying. you take that back about Adrian. He is practically a holy man.

it's that or read for me

Are you sure you want to be a witch? You might get killed. You probably will get killed.

he's not my favorite, but i wouldn't call him bad

We just need Kasja to give us what the rest of what we're doing make sure the trial is fair, ya know?

not specifically. but the point is, you're still getting your power from where you're from in boarding schools. You just can be in the same area as others now. We haven't had our trial yet!

Platypus pulled himself out of his mind. He wakes to X's hand near his head. "Scud!" He rolls and stands up in a swordsman's stance, Blades in hand, before realizing that it was X. "Oh. Sorry. It sounds like you were worried. Sorry, I'm not normally like this. I think the explosion from Emma point blank had an effect after all. Although... it did seem like i was... knocked out forcibly or something. I'm sure it'll be fine."

no, they're adults then, the magic isn't affected by location at that point, it's powered by the Earth's core magic. Not the Earth's locational magic.

yeah, but their magic leaves. All the magic in our area, for example, is being channeled through Noodles.

YES!

hi

because only one witch can go to a public school! It has to do with the space. Only one witch can be born in an area where it goes to a school. Basically, only one witch can be born in a certain school's boundaries. That's why colleges and boarding schools don't count. People move to go there.

Ok. Shortcake is the most likely to be a witch, so you're off the hook. For now. After all, only one of you can be a witch. so if Shortcake is a witch, this clears Insa, Ranryu, Cellist, Snail, Fae, Bookwyrm, and Almond from being witches. Never mind, you're all off the hook. Some emojis work, so Shortcake just got lucky. Check the Sharder one-liners thread for more detail.

Wait, is it college or boarding school? Or is it public school? Cause that's important in proving your innocence or lack thereof.

Platypus grimaced. "I suppose I should have mentioned this. Did you check my wrist? Or my neck? Because my pulse can't be found there. I have a very different biology than you humans. Remind me to tell you about it sometime when we're not pressed for time to stop Emma." Platypus looks around his mind. "Actually, hold that thought." Platypus walks a few steps away as a thread the size of a ribbon appears in the space that he was standing just moments ago. He walks to it. "If I pull this, whichever person is trying to sense my mind will be brought in. That's how I brought you in, so I assume this is either X or Matra. Will you still show a pulse? Your mind probably won't appear to be working as it is mostly in mine at the moment. Either way, we should probably exit here soon so they don't get too worried. If they don't know what's going on, this could look bad, especially since it would seem to them like I'm dead and somehow touching my mind killed you." Platypus pushes the thread away, and then notices there is a thread still connected to Thaidakar's shoe. "That's probably how you get out of here. Either pull, push, or cut that line and you'll be back to your own body. Probably. I'm new to this."

Wait. @InfiniteInsanity, do you and Bookwyrm go to the same school?

*sniffles* "I'm... actually not sure, but Telrao stole it!" *starts crying again*

She legally stole some Sanderson books and mourned her nonexistent DogeCoin because sentient Marshmallows attacked Kelsier.

I assume that you didn't count the @ in it or it would be 8
