2nd Turn

[taimdala]

Also, I would like the record to show that I am not suited to play the Judge Advocate, Prosecuting Attorney, and Defense Attorney. I don't know enough about law to play those parts convincingly, not without a script. As a script was not mentioned in the call for volunteers, I have to assume that those parts being played will be unscripted.

So ... yeah. Without a script, I will have to bow out of playing one of these. Sorry Pale!

[Morse]

I am a theater major with a great deal of experience in writing and playing rather pointed people, and have run numerous table tops with socially aggressive antagonists... as well as allies...

I would like to volunteer myself as Prosecuting Attorney.


(I will note this has nothing to do with my joke earlier, I just think this'll be a lot of fun)

[Quinn]

You're a dick, but you have a point Morse.

And Taimdala, you'd make a helluva defense lawyer. There is also the point that Quinn's parents are highly placed corporates and this might be politically motivated.

Also, anyone detonating a nuclear weapon would likely face up to a Board of Inquiry, which is what I was expecting. But I guess the brass has nothing better to do but get in real Marine's way.

[Corporal Hicks]

Pale, I volunteer for Judge Advocate. Dibs!

Taimdala, you might be onto something there. Even if the trial isn't involved, it could still easily be a hit on one of us or all of us. And if it wasn't intended to be, you probably put a good idea into Pale Rider's hands haha.

[taimdala]

Quinn--thanks for the endorsement!

Hicks--and this is why I'd be a crappy lawyer: I can't keep my big mouth shut! LOL!

Thanks, guys. Y'all made my day.

Thanks, guys. Y'all made my day.

Even if our characters look down on you for being a civilian, we all like you in real life! Lol. And speaking of which... when are you gonna join the marines and be one of us?! ONE OF US. ONE OF US.

[taimdala]

Awwww, gee, Hicks.

Oksana's not free to sign up just yet. But barring getting shot in the head in a skirmish or getting munched by a xeno, I plan to tag along with y'all as long as you'll have me.

[Quinn]

Speak for yourself Hicks, Quinn doesn't look down on everybody. Don't want to step on Morse's toes.

[Morse]

Haha, I was about to say. Your all scum in the eyes of Morse, regardless of rank and experience. He is the self declared king of every shit rock we land on, weather it be Earth or Alexandria

[Quinn]

Well, if Taimdala doesn't want the job, I'd like to volunteer quicksilver.

As I explained to Quinn in a pm, I tried to find a loop hole but I could not.

Also Taimdala did not give me the idea for what I posted to Dirk that came off the cuff. I like to shoot from the hip and with this group I typically have to.

I am working on a plan for the recruitment of one of Taim's characters.

As far as a script goes you all have the evidence. For inspiration watch A Few Goodmen.

[Morse]

I'll offer to also play judge to help streamline things. - Though I admit (and Quinn, Marcus, and Rina will attest to this) I do have a bad habit of presenting no way out scenarios, and if I'm running the 'bad guy' in this scenario.... it probably won't be fair.

[taimdala]

Oh yeah. Speaking as Rina, I can confirm that Morse as Judge will be tough. Morse as Prosecutor would be even tougher. I pity annyone who has to go against him in either role.

(Dude, you owe me an arm!)

[Corporal Hicks]

Hey, I called dibs on judge advocate! And from the sound of it, you all would rather have me then Morse...

[Quicksilver]

I can fill a role if there's still one that needs to be filled.
