[ For those who want an action post, you’ll find Terezi in the gardens acting out an intense COURTBLOCK DRAMA with a variety of colorful Scalemates. The stage: a courtroom, with an imposing chalk-doodle on a tree serving as the PRIME ADJUDICATOR. Terezi is the prosecution and executioner, as emphasized by nooses hanging from the surrounding trees. There is no defense.

Over the course of the day (and well into the night), Terezi will be putting her dragon plushies on trials for many different crimes and will probably drag you into her roleplay if you approach.


For those who would prefer a video post, Terezi will be broadcasting the best part of her roleplay scenario: the hangings. Periodically, she’ll begin a video and announce a brief:

"Senator Berrytush, for crimes against the empire and treason, you are sentenced to death!"

Or

"Madame de Applesnuggle, for bribery and corruption, you are sentenced to death!"

before hoisting the offending dragon plushie up to her makeshift gallows (read: garden trees) and hanging it. All trials end in death. Justice has been served. ]

Video because he's trying to never be in the same room as the law...

*Tim for the defense!*

What the hell are you doing?

video; one day, tim. you cannot escape the law.

[turn4bout.livejournal.com]

He can't escape, but he CAN hide forever...

Aren't you supposed to have a defense lawyer present? And uhm.. that doink doink sound?

[ Jade was just making her daily trip to the garden when she stumbles upon... a courtroom drama? The multiple ropes hanging from the trees is admittedly disturbing to her, but Terezi is a single female lawyer
fighting for her client
wearing sexy miniskirts and being self-reliant.

Okay not really, but she is still fun to watch. So, Jade sits and observes until the trial is over. Do you hear that? It's Jade, clapping for JUSTICE. ]

Yaaay!

[ Do you think your applause will make her break character? We're dealing with a professional here.

She turns (dramatically), pointing her dragonheaded cane in Jade's general direction (also dramatically). ]

Our lead witness for the next session has arrived. Lady Citrusjoy, do you have any reservations before we begin?

[Action]

[ironlass.livejournal.com]

[ Jade takes a look around her only to realize that Terezi is actually pointing at her.

She is Lady Citrusjoy. She giggles and plays along, getting up off the ground. ]

None at all Madam!

oh my gosh. I know I owe you other tags first but OH MY GOSH.

"Terezi?"

Broadcast via audio, because she seems a little busy for text.

"I've got some books for you."

Finally. He wouldn't interrupt her game, but he wants to get this done before something else comes up.

"Is there somewhere I can leave them?"

>:]

[turn4bout.livejournal.com]

Nothing will make her break character. Nothing.

[paper-knight.livejournal.com]

He shrugs. "Miss Redglare it is."

And off he goes to the garden with his stack of books. He's got some law, some ethics, and, because this is what he'd loved at Terezi's age, The Maltese Falcon and Charles Fort's Book of the Damned.
He stands to one side, waiting for a break in the game. He's planning to simply hand the books off and let Terezi get on with her reign of terror justice.

[Action because it had to be action. Plus after the event, Minato had planned to just... sleep. And outside it was nice during the day. But it looked like Terezi had already claimed most of the gardens. Time to go see what she's up to and finally meet a troll in person.

For now, he'll just be standing nearby in the shade of another tree and watch her play out... whatever it was she was playing out. She really did like dragons, didn't she?]

[action]

[turn4bout.livejournal.com]

[ And she'll continue to play. Questioning a dragon, shaking another for information, explaining things to HIS MOST HONORABLE TYRANNY-- until, she suddenly pulls out a knife and makes one of the dragons fucking stab another one.

There's a moment or two when she carries on about her business. She addresses the crowd of other dragons, and then calls forth her star witness.

The star witness with the knife through its plush stomach. ]



[ that's your cue, Minato. ]

[action]

[jivitadana.livejournal.com]

[... Wait, what. She was way too passionate about this case. It was intriguing, to say the least. But then again, he thought it might be best to play along. This was the same girl (troll?) who somehow and some way discovered something about him that he never said a word to anyone about.

Okay, so he stepped out of the shade and into the world of her imagination which just so happened to be a courtroom full of dragons, dead or alive. And how could he stand around while justice was at a standstill?

He took off the headphones from his ears now. Now it was serious, dude.]

[Feferi hadn't so much planned on going outside as she had caught one of Terezi's broadcasts and had decided to go and see what was going on from a not quite as safe vantage point.

Because she is at least somewhat aware of Alternian customs, because she pretty much has to be, she knows not to interrupt a trial in progress and so she simply sits and observes, lest she herself incur the wrath of the Prime Adjudicator and more importantly the prosecution]

[action]

[turn4bout.livejournal.com]

[ Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand we have a hanging after a rather intense cross-examination period. Terezi waits for the Scalemate to stop "twitching" before ascertaining death (with a furious cane drubbing).

Once she's done, she'll give Feferi a bow. ]

[action]

[cull-means-care.livejournal.com]

[Feferi applauds a well-deserved execution beautifully played]

As usual, Redglare, your devotion to justice has seen another deviant glub his last. You should be congratulated for your hard work.

[Hey, just because she never roleplayed with them doesn't mean she doesn't know about it, at least enough to use the appropriate character name]

[second-first.livejournal.com]

[Okay, Rei thought being in the gardens was a good idea.

Appaaaaaarently not.

She stops and watches the execution of Madame de Applesnuggle in silence.]

....Terezi.

action;

[turn4bout.livejournal.com]

[ A furious cane drubbing is necessary to ascertain Applesnuggle's demise.

Okay, check. Totally dead. ]

[wings-of-vanth.livejournal.com]

[It's not everyday your laps around the mansion take you through a mock courtroom.

Akihiko stops to catch his breath and wipe his brow, curiously glancing at the troll and the arrangement of dragon plush.]

[turn4bout.livejournal.com]

[ Oh, man. You've arrived just in time for the action. Terezi and a particularly nasty-looking blue Scalemate are rolling about the ground, engaged in mortal combat.

There's also some shouting about pirate ships being on fire, too. It's pretty incoherent.

At some point, Terezi gains the upperhand and tears one of the dragon's eyes out with her teeth. The dragon, like all rationale beings, "decides" to abscond the fuck out of this situation.

Which means Terezi is throwing it. At Akihiko. It'll make a little SQUEAK on contact. ]

[Brennan was taking a walk through the gardens right at sunset to enjoy the newly blooming flowers in the orange cast.

She rounds a hedge, and stumbles upon one of the trolls she's yet to meet. The young troll has numerous toys set in an arrangement that, to Brennan, resembles a courtroom.

She pauses to listen to the troll girl's speech, and finds that she is staging mock trials of a number of stuffed dragonlike creatures. The most recent, apparently named "Madame de Applesnuggle", has been sentenced to death for bribery and corruption.

She chuckles.]

Isn't the death penalty rather harsh for bribery?

[Action]

[turn4bout.livejournal.com]

[ She says this as she beats the corpse of Applesnuggle with her cane. Gotta make sure she's dead, you know. ]

This guy.

He's the casualty.

It's him.]
