wtfox | [seasonality] catchall for maya

[let's say this iiiiiis after their debates!!

and it's the (spins wheel) cafeteria, because after all that arguing lila is hungry. and maya probably is too? wowee.]

...that was something else, huh!

[ of course ]

Yeah, no kidding.....

It was kinda fun, though. Reminded me of a courtroom trial!

Oh, that's right... You mentioned, like, doing trials and stuff before all of this, right?

Yeah! So I have some experience. This was closer to a real trial than what happened on Saturday... even if we did end up cross-examining an animal in the end....

...wait, so you normally cross-examine animals in court? Really?

Weeeell...... twice? The circumstances were pretty unique.

[she gives her a look along the lines of "go on, explain!"]

Well, the first time.... it was like, we were up against this super horrible prosecutor who kept forging evidence and intimidating everyone. He'd do anything to win... and I mean, anything. So... one of the killers was this boat rental shop man, but he acted like he had lost his memory and even burned off his fingerprints so we couldn't verify his identity.

But.. he did have a pet parrot.

A pet parrot...

[there's a beat, and then - ]

Oh! Parrots talk - so did his pet let something important slip?

Yep, that's exactly it! You know, the horrible prosecutor actually retrained her not to say something.... but we still managed to fish info out of her, anyway. Plus, we found out his safe combination!

Pretty cool, huh?
