ON THE STAND: DORMOUSE



The Dormouse approaches the stand, yawning,
“Hello…” He smiled, looking around to all the expectant faces in the crowd, “What is this?”

“You’re on the stand as a witness!” The Queen huffed, lifting her chin,
“We have received word that you have an alibi for this Knave?”

The Dormouse blinked, staring at Spark for a long time before shaking his head, “I’ve never seen him before today… Humm….” He pauses, tapping his chin as he thought, “When this happened I was napping at The Hatter’s House and then we had a big party with lots of good food,” He held his arms out with a smile, before beginning to ramble “The Hare’s my good friend and he made sure to give me a lot of goodies but I mostly slept because they were fighting about words I didn’t understand but it was nice to be included anyway. They love ribbles a lot so they played those with the tall blue man. Then I went back to sleep. It was a good day.”

The Queen secretly smiles to herself, enjoying all the compliments she's been receiving.

How kind. I should really give everyone fashion tips, then you could all look fabulous.

ON THE STAND: MAD HATTER



The Hatter wheeled up to the stand, a teacup in her hand as she waved to the crowd cheerfully, ”Hello! I hope you don’t mind, but we are missing tea right now,” she said as she took a sip, humming thoughtfully.

“At the time of the incident, I believe the Hare and the Dormouse were visiting my home. The Hare had it in his mind that me telling him that this statement is false made it true, but as I told him, I said it was false so it had to be false! And as you can understand we had to dedicate some time to resolve that issue. My, we took so long that we were late to our own unbirthday party! Imagine!” She laughs, before shaking her head, “After that we ventured to the woods to the table, and the festivities had us too busy to be stealing sceptres. I’ll add, the only thing we broke was the fine china and this young man’s determination to find his siblings, briefly,” The Hatter signaled to Static with a laugh, “Oh we had him doing riddles for hours…”

@angelus: She frowns deeper, cheeks puffing slightly in annoyance, "You would do well not to question a queen."

@dipper: "Hm? Of course. Are you saying it's not kind to let somebody live?"
Posted in Ch. 12 Queen's Court Posted 6 years ago
The Queen frowned, unimpressed by this line of questioning.

@angelus: "I will have you know, I abuse nobody. I only administer punishment to those deserving of it, and fairly. In fact, I've shown him kindness and forgiveness by not taking his head, despite his many transgressions. Are you implying that I, monarch of this land, do not deserve care?"

"Hmmph..." The Queen sounded as she pursed her lips slightly, making a mental note of The Rabbit's testimony.

ON THE STAND: WHITE RABBIT



The Rabbit walked up to the stand, slumping in his seat, “Hey.”

“Straighten up and pay your proper respect, servant!” The Queen shouted, causing The Rabbit to grimace but straighten himself out immediately. He seemed subtly displeased as the Queen continued, “Good. Continue, but take this seriously or I will have your head!”

“Yes, Your Highness,” The Rabbit put on airs, stiffly bowing his head to her before continuing, “The day started rough and it made me be late to work. First my watch was busted, then I decided to help out a tourist here,” He nodded to Static, “He helped me out first so hey, least I can do right? Heh. He had some trouble keepin’ up but I lead him right to the castle. Nothin’ more to it.”

I will allow 5 more minutes to ask questions before we move to the first intermission.

@rainbowpanda: The sceptre is a very valued and powerful object, passed down for generations. It should only remain in the hands of those qualified and revered enough to handle it, dear. That is why it was in my possession and should have remained there.

She shoots a cold look to Spark.
