The Watchers court p2
BigB: Defendant, who will be your defence?
Punz: I will.
Grian: Defendant, do you accept...
Punz: Punz.
Grian: Punz as your defence.
Dream: I do.
Pearl: Then so it will be, defence do you have an opening statement?
Punz: I do. May I?
BigB: Go ahead.
Punz: Thank you. I'm going to be quick, this court is all a sham based on the whining of a delinquent desperate for attention.
Tommy: Oh I'll show you delinquent you bitch! Come here you-
Grian: Order! Order in the court!
Tommy: But-
Grian: 👁️👁️👁️ORDER👁️👁️👁️
Tommy: ...
Punz: ...
Grian: My apologies, go on.
Punz: Y-yes, the defendant just did his job as an admin and the prosecution was just punished for breaking the server rules.
Pearl: ... Is that all?
Punz: ... Yes?
BigB: Ok then, It's time to bring the first witness to the stand.
*in the jury*
E1!Jimmy: Oh wow, you look so cool!
Kristin: Why, thank you dear.
Knight!Grian: Pay attention people. This is important.
Martyn: Bring the first witness.
Tommy: Wait...
Ranboo: U-uh... hi?
Tommy: Boob boy!?
Ranboo: Hi Tommy!
Tubbo: You're alive?
Tommy: How is he alive?
Pearl: Magic.
Grian: We needed him for the court so we took him.
Tommy: You can do that!?!?
BigB: Ehm ...can we go on?
Pearl: Right. Can you state your name, pronoums and occupation for the court mate.
Ranboo: Right! U-uh... Ranboo and uh... what are pronoums.
Pearl: How should we refer to you?
Ranboo: ... Ranboo?
Tubbo: Psttt, they mean if you use he/she/they or something else.
Ranboo: Oooh! Phil was trying to teach it to me! Uh, He/They ... I think?
Jimmy: Writing that down!
Grian: And occupation?
Ranboo: I don't really- uh... I worked at the burger stand for a while? I guess?
Grian: That works. Now you can begin with the examination.
Punz: Objection your honors, this isn't a valid witness.
BigB: Why?
Punz: Ranboo here is famously known to have a terrible memory.
Pearl: Is this true?
Ranboo: Y-yes m'am... but I... I have my memory book with me!
*He holds up a leather book*
Grian: I think it might still be helpful to hear from this witness, objection denied.
Tommy: Hello boob boy.
Ranboo: It's not... *sigh* nevermind.
Tubbo: Sooo... What can you tell the court about Dream?
Ranboo: He's evil! H-he destroyed the community house and put Tommy in exile.
Tommy: Damn right he is!
Ranboo: And he stole the disks right? I don't really remember why they are important but I know they are!
Grian: Anything else.
Ranboo: He ... Killed Tommy, I think I remember it! In prison!
Tubbo: And the book, you haven't made additions to it recently have you?
Ranboo: No! I... I didn't really use it after I died.
Grian: Can we take a look at this book of yours?
Ranboo: O-oh sure!
Pearl: Well... this is actually pretty small. How do you keep all your menories here?
Ranboo: I don't, I had another book before this but it got lost.
Pearl: Oh, that sucks... we'll copy it and put it in the evidence if you consent.
Ranboo: I ...sure?
BigB: Taurtis? Could you bring the book to be copied?
Taurtis: On it!
Grian: Now, is that all you have to say about Dream?
Ranboo: Y-yeah.
Grian: Defence, you can begin your cross examination now.
*in the jury*
Knight!Grian: Not exactly a strong start for the prosecution, all of these acts are hardly illegal.
Voice of The Star: Maybe so, but based on the testimony we may still look at a case of abuse of admin powers.
Kristin: Indeed, and we still have more witnesses after this one.
Punz: Ranboo, you have stated that Dream is evil, why?
Ranboo: What? I-I just said he destroyed the community house... And exiled Tommy.
Punz: Well that's untrue.
Ranboo: Uh?
Punz: Dream did not exile Tommy, that was Tubbo.
Ranboo: W-well, yeah... but Dream was behind it!
Punz: As the one who caught Tommy committing arson and the one who put him on trial, yes. Are either of these crimes, your honurs?
Pearl: ...no?
Punz: Exactly. As for the community house, there is no proof he was the culprit.
Tommy: Bullshit! He admitted it!
Grian: Order! ... Punz, is this true? Did ge admit it?
Punz: ...
Grian: Well?
Punz: He did. However, it was at axe point under threat of violence, his confession is therefore invalid as it was coerced out of him.
Ranboo: W-what about the disks?
Punz: Ah yes, did you forget that Tommy gave those disks over willingly as part of a trade?
Ranboo: I-
Punz: Cleary the witness doesn't know what he's talking about-
Tubbo: Objection!
Grian: ... To what?
Tubbo: All of it!
Jimmy: ...pstt...Can he do that?
Pearl: I don't know, but it sounds interesting.
BigB: Uh...go ahead.
Tubbo: Thank you bossman! First of all, Dream threatened L'Manberg and me into exiling Tommy. He promised the death of every citizien should we not exile Tommy, if his admission is invalid then so was the exile which he should have known as an admin!
Grian: It's true, when I was admin of Evo I had to learn a lot of laws so yes, he should have known.
Tubbo: More then that, he personally curated Tommy's exile! Nowhere in my decision did I ever say that Dream should have done anything more then bringing Tommy outside the country which means all actions Dream took during exile were done illegally!
Ranboo: wow...
Tommy: ... Holy shit.
Tubbo: Second of all, the disks were first stolen by Dream as punishment for Tommy not listening to Dream, what do the admin laws say about stealing players valuable as punishment?
Grian: ... Taurtis, please bring a copy of the admin codex?
Taurtis: Here you go G!
*Grian reads a bit*
Grian: It seems that you shouldn't have had the authority to do so ... however this is a minor offence...
Punz: Ah!
Grian: However you have hidden a lot of information, I suggest you do not do so again.
Pearl: You cunt.
*a lady in the back shouts*
Ianite: That's my son! Wooo!
Tubbo: Mom? Why are you here???
Ianite: To cheer you on! You're doing so good!
Tubbo: Mom...
Pearl: Lady Ianite???
Ianite: Oh greetings saintess.
Grian: Right, Ranboo you may leave the stand.
Ranboo: Y-yes sir!
Martyn: Alright, now there is going to be a 20 minute break before we go to the next witnesses.
