-----Phase 9-----NO-FACE
You're... inside No-face?? Gross! Well, it's not actually that gross. It's pitch-black in here, and it just feels like the weird spirit goop that makes up No-face's body.
Bravocat
A tall, humanoid figure. The head is a stitched together mask, but what lies beneath isn't exactly clear.knife-woundVISIBLE Bravocat has patched up the wound in his stomach, and whilst it still seems to be bleeding a little, the flow is stopped.
cat-maskVISIBLE A giant cat mask, stitched together with green fabric! The mouth is splattered with blood.
No-Face
A tall slender black ghostly figure with a white mask. Has the voice of a cold aloof Japanese woman.

Hahahaha!!!
I now have ALL of your abilities!
Thank you!! You are very yummy!
BravocatBOT26-Mar-22 10:07 PM
Hm, not exactly the most dignified act I’ve ever put on, but it works.
And you, my soft-spoken friend, how outgoing you’ve become!
All of my abilities you say, isn’t that a treat!
No FaceBOT26-Mar-22 10:08 PM
Yes!
I'm even getting a job!
BravocatBOT26-Mar-22 10:09 PM
Though, they mostly require a silver tongue to be of much use, I don’t suppose you inherited that too?
No FaceBOT26-Mar-22 10:09 PM
You're inside me, so I have everything you have!
So yes, I have that too!
BravocatBOT26-Mar-22 10:11 PM
Wonderful! So nice to be in the company of another showman.
Tell me, from one showman to another, how do you feel about the way this performance is progressing?
(Ok I gotta go for like 2 hours but I will be good to go after that)
No FaceBOT26-Mar-22 11:01 PM
Wonderfully!
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:08 AM
(back)
And I would agree!
This performance, it has been full of twists and drama, but also comradery and levity!
I couldn't ask for anything better!
Well... except for one thing.
1
Have you any idea what that is?
(idk if i should ping i think time is of the essence here)
(eh screw it @No Face you around to talk)
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:16 AM
(ya I'm here)
Oh no no no no no
I can't let you be convincing me to do anything now...
I know what would happen!
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:17 AM
My dear, if you let me speak I think you'll find I quite desire what I would want you to do.
In fact, I haven't used that little trick in my entire time here!
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:17 AM
...you looked like a hero to me
Do heros lie?
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:18 AM
The only people I have lied to are the villains out there!
Those who seek to bring chaos and death to the forces for good!
I've been entirely honest with you besides that, honest with everybody!
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:19 AM
Well I better not listen to you then!
Because I'm as evil as they get!(edited)
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:19 AM
Really now? That doesn't sound like who I met in that audition room.(edited)
What's gotten such an idea into your head?
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:19 AM
Nonsense!
I'm one of the most evil nasty horrible people here!
You just...didn't see that side of me yet
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:20 AM
Is this because you had a taste of that girl?
Berkastel?
Did you inherit all of that evil?
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:20 AM
I inherited no such thing, kihihihihihihi...
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:21 AM
But why then, what's brought you to such a miserable state?
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:22 AM
Not listening!!!!!
Lalalalalalalalala!!!
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:22 AM
I learned something a long time ago... that people will turn to the worst things when they are hurt.
What hurt you?
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:23 AM
Uhh, I did get hurt by some fire earlier
That did hurt! A lot!
That's not why though!!
And I'm not telling YOU!!!
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:23 AM
My friend, it really doesn't matter what you tell me now. I'm as good as dead regardless.
I only want to understand.
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:23 AM
...that is a good point
she's coming to kill you soon
oops!
I shouldn't have said that!
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:24 AM
I already knew.
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:24 AM
Huh?
Can you hear outside my stomach?
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:24 AM
In a manner of speaking, yes.
I also listened in on the deal she made.
There
1
There's much worse than death awaiting me out there.
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:25 AM
With my soon to be employer, I know
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:25 AM
So yes, I know that my time in the spotlight is as good over.
I only hope... that I may pass on something better than what you're being steered towards.
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:26 AM
...
what is it that you were aiming to do?
Put on a show, right?
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:27 AM
Yes... that is what I had come here to do. Before I got caught up in all of this.
And as I said, a good show it has been! There's just one problem I have with it...(edited)
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:27 AM
What's that?
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:27 AM
The ending. It's all so dreary isn't it?
Evil succeeds and the good guys fail despite doing everything that they could.
What kind of audience would want to bear witness to a show like that?
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:28 AM
I would!
...I think?
Yeah!
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:28 AM
Do you?
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:28 AM
Isn't that like, have a special name?
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:28 AM
Is that what you want?
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:28 AM
Tragedy?
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:29 AM
Perhaps it is... but in such shows that tragedy has a point.
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:29 AM
Ah yes...shakespeare
He had a lot of really BORING plays, but the tragedies... they were good!
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:29 AM
There is no point to our performance, it will simply come to an end by a being which has no care for its actors, who only desires chaos.
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:30 AM
Chaos is fun!
That's something I'm learning from them
You won't convince me that it's not!!!!
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:30 AM
Chaos... is entertaining, until you are caught in its fold.
That thing out there, Stirner, it is a ravenous beast.
It is ravenous for conflict.(edited)
It will eat and eat and eat, until there is nothing left!
That includes you.
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:31 AM
...I
have to eat
I have to...
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:32 AM
You can be better than that, I know you can.
You can be the star of this performance, as a tool of good!
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:32 AM
But nothing is better than chaos!!
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:32 AM
You can heal.
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:33 AM
Yes! Being the star!
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:33 AM
Hm...?
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:33 AM
I'll be the best villian there ever was!
And make the best tragedy of them all!
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:33 AM
If you wish to be the star of this performance, joining the villains won't get you that.
There's more than enough of them to go around.
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:34 AM
Huh? That doesn't seem right
the people who have gotten the most attention are the horrible ones!
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:34 AM
That can't include me, I'm a hero, remember?
And yet... I was able to take part in such brilliant performances.
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:35 AM
I...guess
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:35 AM
I believe there is only one way to save this show now, and it would involve the power of the performance.
And as I am in here, you would have to be the star!
You could turn the tables single handedly. You would be the hero everybody will remember!
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:36 AM
...a hero?
Nonsense!
Heros are the opposite of villainy!!
There's no way you can convert me to do something as pitiful as justice!
Too much WORK!
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:37 AM
Again with that... that doesn't sound like you.
That doesn't sound like anybody who inherited the bravado of me!
That sounds like the attitude of someone destined to be nothing but a puppet on strings.
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:38 AM

arrruuughhhhhhhhuuuu

No!
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:40 AM
Who told you you could not listen?
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:40 AM
you might convince me to do something!
And make it bad!
That's what you're doing...
You're just trying to get out!
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:40 AM
My dear, all things considered if I could stay in here for the rest of my days that would be a better fate than what's awaiting me out there.
Perhaps I wish to make things right... because of an obligation.
Kuro, you saw what he did.
He gave everything he could have ever wanted up... to protect me.
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:41 AM
He did something?
No, no no don't tell me
not listening!!!!
LALALALALALAALALALA
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:42 AM
He didn't have to do it, in fact it's put him in quite a bad situation.
I don't think there's any way I could repay him... but to make things right.

No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:43 AM
No idea what you're talking about!
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:43 AM
Like I said, I listened in on the deal Bernkastel made with "Stirner."
Kuro was also there.
He was promised riches and freedom for doing a job, and Bernkastel agreed that they could part ways with that.
All he had to do... was allow me to die, and he would've been home free.
But... he saved me.
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:45 AM
...he's employed by my soon to be employer
but did a heroic thing like that?
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:46 AM
That's exactly why I cannot simply allow things to end for him like this.
He told me that he was a schemer, that he was willing to do anything to achieve his goals.
And yet, he lied to Bernkastel's face about aiding in my death, instead choosing to rescue me.(edited)
...and look what it has gotten him.
No FaceBOT27-Mar-22 12:47 AM
AAAUUUGGG
STOP ITTTT
I'm spitting you BOTH out after Bern has her way with you!!!!
I don't wanna hear this anymore!!
BravocatBOT27-Mar-22 12:48 AM
You know what the right thing to do is!
Please, your help is all that can give this performance a happy ending!
I know that I am an untrustworthy figure! But I want nothing more than what I say now!

Max Stirner
A great and horrid thing. All of its human features have gone now. It stands meters above you, dozens of arms moving in unnatural ways. The void of space fills its gaping maw.sauerkrautVISIBLE It's a delicious looking dish of sauerkraut with a side of traditional German sausage, cooked with the utmost amount of care and dedication. Though, it seems somewhat empty. Definitely not enough for a full meal.
hot-sauce-smearVISIBLE There is hot sauce all over Stirner's dress! He is clearly unhappy about this, since he HATES spicy things.
stringsVISIBLETAKEABLE It's a really, REALLY long set of strings connecting to Trainee Chef! It seems like whoever is holding them can exert some degree of control over the chef.

Dr. Who?

Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 08:56 PM
Which he proved he was

He advised... "community service".
Frankly, that seems... ridiculous.
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 08:56 PM
Whether or not he paid attention afterwards is a different and irrelevant matter that doesn't pertain to the case
It could be good for him

Godot... you mentioned a star witness?
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 08:59 PM
And Mario wasn't a good witness
I'm getting to that
legally speaking, pleading insanity means your client has also pled guilty to all charges. These crimes DID happen and the reason behind the crimes is because of insanity
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 09:00 PM
Yes
That's what we've been proving this entire time
Cathode is insane
1
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 09:00 PM
The defendant is trying to prove cathode is insane
I'm just recapping for the new people
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 09:01 PM
Thank you for that Tin Man
Problem SleuthBOT28-Mar-22 09:01 PM
[its surprising you all cant see the true reactions to dan's statement]
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 09:02 PM
I have a feeling he might be... "playing up" his insanity.
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 09:02 PM
Yes, Yes he is
So for this next witness, they have a special condition
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 09:03 PM
This is what I mean, the client is delirious
Problem SleuthBOT28-Mar-22 09:04 PM
[what kind of special condition?]
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 09:05 PM
They cannot be here right now
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 09:06 PM
Who's the witness?
And why can't they be here
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 09:07 PM
They are in witness protection, I cannot say their name but their name is "SPecial Yan" or SP.Y for short
1
So please refer to them as SP.Y when refering to them
They will be speaking through me
but i understand if the defense is not fine with this

I'm incredibly confused by who this person is and what relevance they have to the case
But I'll allow it

No it's not it's SPecial Yan
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 09:10 PM
I don't care who this SP. Y is
Just bring them up before I actually put a bullet in someone's head
Unless this person identies themself I won't be taking their testimony into account
And neither should the court

NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 09:52 PM
I ask that you do not make rash assumptions, Mr. Cathode.
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 09:52 PM
I must simply state that we cannot accept the testimony of any of audience members that cannot identify the stabbed victim during phase 8
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 09:52 PM
May I remind you that you were with me on phase 8?

...
I have been told new information.
May I share?
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 09:54 PM
The whole reason you brought this argument up is because you couldn't handle the fact that a medical expert provided a solid diagnosis
And you have nothing to back up your claims
You're getting desperate old man
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 09:54 PM
We cannot accept any of the testimonies by cathode's supporters unless they can correctly identify the stabbed victim
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 09:54 PM
This is... important information that was omitted.
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 09:54 PM
seeing as they were all in the audience at the time
and none of them could say they saw the victim
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 09:54 PM
I do agree with... Godot.
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 09:54 PM
Dr. House is not a Cathode supporter
This was already established please try to remember
Dr. House is in no way affiliated with Cathode
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 09:55 PM
The person who comited the stabbing was not Abraham Lincoln.
But they looked like him.
Problem SleuthBOT28-Mar-22 09:55 PM
[i shouldnt need any "supporters". anybody should be able to identify the stabbed victim.]
Abraham LincolnBOT28-Mar-22 09:56 PM
Well, that Robbie character was dressed up as me for a small while.
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 09:56 PM
At this point you can argue about phase 8 as much as you want
It doesn't change the fact that Dr. House was in the audience Phase 7
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 09:56 PM
I see the point Godot is trying to make.
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 09:56 PM
In the testimony, SP.Y said they were invisible phase 7 and did not see Dr.House in the audience
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 09:56 PM
Then they missed them
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 09:56 PM
That is barely an argument...
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 09:56 PM
In the same way Dr. House missed Phase 8
I saw Dr. House myself there
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 09:57 PM
I find it hard to believe you miss a stabbing and a death on stage
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 09:57 PM
He already explained it
He was trying open a pill bottle
No FaceBOT28-Mar-22 09:57 PM
Stabbing?
What are you talking about?

No FaceBOT28-Mar-22 09:58 PM

NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 09:58 PM

That is a lie...
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 09:58 PM
That's the one thing you can't refute
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 09:58 PM
Unless my informer is lying to me.
Mr. Court Room, may I remind you that you are... "under oath".
Whatever that means.
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 09:58 PM
we cannot accept his testimony because he could have not been paying attention at the stage at all and lying to us and is unfit to diagnose cathode condition
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 09:59 PM
What?
Are you aware of the insanity coming out of your mouth
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 09:59 PM
Dr. House's recollection of events was confused.
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 09:59 PM
Someone doesn't see an event so the last 20 years of their life is automatically invalidated
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 10:00 PM
Dr.house, We cannot accept his diagnosis due to his confusion of events and false testimony
It's called Alzheimer's disease

GodotBOT28-Mar-22 10:05 PM
You probably did.
Yes and, I answered honestly
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 10:06 PM
Does it matter if he is an imposter?
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 10:06 PM
I don't think we can trust someone who lies about who they truly are
It completely matters
If this person is lying about their appearance, everything they say should be called into question
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 10:06 PM
This is... irrelevant to the case!
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 10:07 PM
Even this "star witness"
If they even exist

Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 10:07 PM

GodotBOT28-Mar-22 10:07 PM
Agreed, this is irrelevant to the current case.
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 10:07 PM
And as a result, their testimony should be thrown out
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 10:07 PM
I disagree.

You shall not speak it.
You will have a knife in your back if you do so.
Very well
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 10:08 PM
If the prosecution wishes for the real identity of the prosecution to be hidden, the prosecution has every right to do so.
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 10:08 PM
The prosecution never attempted to hide it
They pretended to be someone without alerting others

My name's Spark. Current occupation? ...I guess unemployed.
Anyways, I think I'm the only one who can really speak about Cathode, given I'm the only one who's actually known them at all outside of here.
Problem SleuthBOT28-Mar-22 10:14 PM
[the horse did]
[or was it the deer?]
SparkBOT28-Mar-22 10:14 PM
Deer. But anyways, they're...gone now.
Problem SleuthBOT28-Mar-22 10:14 PM
[anyways, sea's gone now]
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 10:14 PM
Please let the witness... finish.
SparkBOT28-Mar-22 10:15 PM
But I can assure you, Cathode's perfectly sane and I think this case by the defense is simply an assumption based on their own opinions of the world.
1
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 10:15 PM
Interesting.
Could you explain?
SparkBOT28-Mar-22 10:16 PM
Well, I haven't seen the entire trial thus far, as I was rather exhausted, - I see you there, Stirner - but, I take it the main idea for Cathode's insanity would be them rambling on about things that seemingly do not exist.
1
But, I don't know how any of you can look at the stuff that's been going on and say that it's inconceivable that stuff is real and it's just something only some know about.
Even failing that, doesn't blind faith exist? It's hardly insanity.
Anyways, I first met Cathode...a while back, with Orion too.
If there's one thing I can tell you with complete confidence, is that near nothing I saw that day made much sense to me.
Problem SleuthBOT28-Mar-22 10:18 PM
[i was locked up. in a cage.]
SparkBOT28-Mar-22 10:18 PM
There were a whole lot of things that shouldn't have been possible happening, worlds getting torn apart, people going on rampages, and all this "meta" talk - Which I'm sure you have pointed to a point to Cathode's insanity, whereas it was just seen as a perfectly normal thing there.
Even if it doesn't make sense to you, can you really even try to make sense of everything that's happened today?
How in the world did the stage just...catch fire by itself?
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 10:19 PM
HaHA!
SparkBOT28-Mar-22 10:19 PM
How did it rain blood everywhere?
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 10:19 PM
The train, too.
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 10:20 PM
And how is there two of me?
SparkBOT28-Mar-22 10:20 PM
Well, I know about that. But, eh.
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 10:20 PM
You'll learn when you're older
1
SparkBOT28-Mar-22 10:20 PM
Not to mention the tears in reality and the like. I promise there's no good explanation for this inside the realms of the reality as we know it.
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 10:20 PM
Thanks Godot.
Problem SleuthBOT28-Mar-22 10:20 PM
[eh, i know why that is]
SparkBOT28-Mar-22 10:21 PM
So you can't connect things they say you don't understand to insanity, and they were definitely in sound mind when they did the things they did.
...Whew. That was a mouthful.
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 10:22 PM
Thank you...! Hahaa...
SparkBOT28-Mar-22 10:22 PM
You're welcome? I still plan on killing you, you know.
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 10:22 PM
Oh, I know!
But I need to... finish this trial first.
...And get out of No-Face.
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 10:23 PM
Yeah, do that outside the trial.
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 10:23 PM
Is that going to be enough for... the defence?
What does... Mr. Cathode have to say?
Problem SleuthBOT28-Mar-22 10:23 PM

NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 10:26 PM
Mr. Smith, I do believe... it is too late.
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 10:26 PM
I can't believe it
Another wacko took the stand
I thought Sparky was sane but it seems not
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 10:27 PM
Gentleman
My work here is done
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 10:27 PM
Are you claiming that the WITNESS is insane?
Problem SleuthBOT28-Mar-22 10:27 PM
[so, their statement is unreliable?]
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 10:27 PM
Dan, do you understand what your client just said in response to the witness on the stand?
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 10:27 PM
Do you believe that gms and objectives exist
I need to hear this
Let me finish my questioning before we reach a verdict
SparkBOT28-Mar-22 10:28 PM
I don't think it's outside the realm of possibility, at this point.
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 10:28 PM
...
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 10:28 PM
I do apologize, Dan... but I don't think you will turn around what your client answered.
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 10:28 PM
So you don't know
This is all pure speculation on your end
SparkBOT28-Mar-22 10:28 PM
What's your point?
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 10:28 PM
My point is
Look at where we are
A courtroom
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 10:29 PM
...Inside a ghost.
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 10:29 PM
It looked exactly like the same shitty courtroom I was in but guess what
It was different
It IS different
SparkBOT28-Mar-22 10:29 PM
Your courtrooms are normally this dark?
...Sorry, continue your monologue.
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 10:29 PM
So if wherever the hell Cathode is from, and whatever the hell he's done there is perfectly sane
How the hell does that apply to here
A place with different laws
Even different rules
I don't think this testimony is valid
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 10:30 PM
He comitted those things... here.
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 10:30 PM
But they're speaking on Cathode's sanity
And using past events as the basis for that
SparkBOT28-Mar-22 10:31 PM
Not just past events.
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 10:31 PM
The clients past certainly should be taken into account
SparkBOT28-Mar-22 10:31 PM
Crazy things have happened here, too. Enough where thinking anything like that would be rather reasonable.
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 10:31 PM
Still
You've shown absolutely no evidence for Cathode being sane
All you've done is speculate
SparkBOT28-Mar-22 10:31 PM
Ha!
I'm a witness.
No FaceBOT28-Mar-22 10:32 PM
What are you guys even arguing about anyway?
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 10:32 PM
Will you... comment on the client's response?
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 10:32 PM
You're dangerous for feeding into the delusions of a sick man
No FaceBOT28-Mar-22 10:32 PM
Wasn't this about being god or something?

Regardless, witness testimony is admissible in court.

Well, I want to point out one thing.
Dan.
Your client admitted to being aware of their actions.

Could we go back to... the main point?
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 10:42 PM
Sure
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 10:43 PM

NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 11:01 PM
We find this of great importance.
GodotBOT28-Mar-22 11:01 PM
Because you can't prove it
There is foul play

Why the hell are you asking me
NyarlathotepBOT28-Mar-22 11:02 PM
The DEFENCE will not let us make our point.
The AuthorBOT28-Mar-22 11:02 PM
Well, if the Game Master wasn't clear enough already - he's backed off into the audience. He's no longer relevant, why should he speak?

And that's the thing. Everybody has a different idea of what constitutes a narrative. Just because you want to force someone out into the open doesn't mean they want to.

I refuse to hear him without Problem & Pasq also being here
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 11:03 PM
Actually maybe throwing me up so I can get the hell out of here would be a good idea

Objection.
The Author is in the stage.
Why is the Author in the stage?
Dan SmithBOT28-Mar-22 11:04 PM
Because this trial is on the stage

No.

(I'd appreciate it if we didn't go down the pasqualo/author/cath line of logic. it's a bit too metagamey, and cath is trying his hardest to explain it.)

What happens now?
Is the defendant guilty or not guilty?
Problem SleuthBOT29-Mar-22 04:17 PM
[what'd typically happen in situations like this is the judges would decide the verdict depending on the evidence presented.]
GodotBOT29-Mar-22 04:18 PM
Well, he pled insanity. So to prove insanity the things did have to happen. So this is if cathode is insane or not

...Well, we know that the defendant is guilty, yes?
Pleading insanity... is a different matter.
Problem SleuthBOT29-Mar-22 04:43 PM
[the debate isnt about whether ive done crimes or not - you've made it all quite clear at this point that i should receive a guilty verdict for whatever actions ive allegedly performed. quite frankly, even talking about the legality of my so-called "actions" is a pointless exercise - because that's not why this court is in session.]
[it's to determine what the most appropriate punishment is for me. to determine what the correct course of action is to take.]
[after all, i could say the same for spark over there. isn't he guilty of assault and battery? is that not a crime in its own right? the same crime goes for nyar. how about no face - they have destroyed public property and indulged in cannibalism. bernkastel was a murderer, and i could make a good case for bravocat attempting manslaughter by encouraging the audience.]

[well, im sure you'll know that by signing a multiverse contract... well. i can throw my problems away to a later gameboard to deal with.]
[of course, that's how the first one worked.]

How do you expect to do that?
Problem SleuthBOT29-Mar-22 05:01 PM
[well.]
[how else, do you think?]
[i'm a player]
[this game has gms]
[i made a deal.]
SparkBOT29-Mar-22 05:01 PM
I mean, how do you expect to go through with the deal.
Problem SleuthBOT29-Mar-22 05:02 PM
[well, it's pretty easy.]
[leaving the game in of itself... that's a really big price to pay.]
[but it also kind of pays itself, when you think about it]
[you leave your characters with no narrative relevance when you walk away.]
[an eye for an eye]
SparkBOT29-Mar-22 05:04 PM
I don't get your point at all.
Problem SleuthBOT29-Mar-22 05:04 PM
[my point is...]
[this is how i win.]
NyarlathotepBOT29-Mar-22 05:04 PM
...Do I still have to do a "closing argument"?
SparkBOT29-Mar-22 05:05 PM
You still haven't explained how you plan to "leave the game".
Problem SleuthBOT29-Mar-22 05:05 PM
[oh, that's easy]
[i talked to the gms, myself. all i have to do at this point is wait for the contract to get here, and sign it.]

Oh, so it's easy to stop you, then.

What do the two Godots think...?
GodotBOT29-Mar-22 05:25 PM
So what is the contract do?
I believe I have an idea.
.
It's fairly simple to understand.
Think of it like a plead deal.
A plead deal?
Yes.
I'm sure you know what it means, you are a prosecutor.
I much perfer a trial over a plead deal
We have already went to trial, no room for a deal now
Problem SleuthBOT29-Mar-22 05:36 PM

You won't even let the prosecution know?
So these... Gee Ems negotiated for your judgement... despite this trial?
Problem SleuthBOT29-Mar-22 05:39 PM
[yes. yes, they did]
[don't treat this as the trial being ...over. just treat it as being delayed.]
[after all, it's not truly over until the judge bangs their gavel]
Nikola OrsinovBOT29-Mar-22 05:42 PM
Judgement remains to be seen! The prosecution have him on the back foot.
GodotBOT29-Mar-22 06:06 PM
Ill start my closing argument
I thank everyone through this long hearing
As we have seen through these 2 phases of a trial
Cathode is of the sane mind and has his bearings.
From Nyarlathotep telling the court that they were with Cathode a good amount of the time, with them fully aware of their actions
Zoe telling the court that "That he's gonna erase areas" and " destroy the theatre" confirmed by cathode himself
Spark saying they know Cathode and this meta talk and everything else is completely normal for them
and most importantly cathode saying that "[ive been aware of my actions this whole time, attorney. i just hold no moral bearing towards them.]"
That's an admission of guilt and admission of sanity
Cathode is completely sane of mind and is guilty of all charges
I rest my case
Thank you Your Honor(edited)
Nikola OrsinovBOT29-Mar-22 06:35 PM

From what I've seen, I think I have enough evidence.

Dan SmithBOT29-Mar-22 06:56 PM
It appears I won't have enough time to call my star witness "Pablo Smith" to testify on behalf of whether or not Cathode is sane but honestly I feel thats for the best
Thank you all for hearing the arguments
Cathode is clearly mentally deranged and has no baring in reality
Cathode suffers from delusions of grandeur and as medical expert Dr. House put it, he is insane
Dr. House is not affiliated with Cathode in anyway, and has been proven to be present here before the helicopter
God Mario, a literal God, has testified that despite being all knowing, not even he is aware of the nonsense Cathode speaks of

Mr Smith, you may continue.
Dan SmithBOT29-Mar-22 07:02 PM
Due to a medical expert testifying that Cathode is insane, and claims made by him should not be taken as fact
Additionally Spark's testimony has no basis as well
If Pablo were allowed to testify, he would say something along the lines of "Metanarratives suck and as a result anyone who actually does them is insane"

However we have no time for that, and that would be hearsay
