Come to Order
"Now, in the interest of erring on the side of caution, this court will have none of 'the subject' or 'the product'. The being self-identifying as 'John 'Jack' Smith', will be referred to as 'him', or 'the individual' if the plaintiffs insist on being clinical." The judge cast a stern eye around the courtroom. There was more than a fair representation both of the Thunderbolts and the Leap Foundation. A few notable superheroes with impressive civilian credentials, such as Doctors Pym and Samson, were also on the witness list.

Some shuffling of papers and agreements are issued, before the lawyer for the Leap Foundation steps up.

"We call Beatrice Dayspring to the stand."

	"Oh..." Jack looks crestfallen. "I.. guess so?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kelly nods, looking towards the probably pleased looking defense, and lets it hang for a second. She's admitted to not necessarily being fond of Jack. Is she going to leave it at that? A few moments later. "Are you afraid of me, Jack?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jack blinks. And blinks again. "I... I'm...sorry?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm scared of you." Jack says, with more volume and a lot more indignation. "Because you're crazy and have access to way too many power tools and weapons." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Were you afraid of me before you joined the Thunderbolts?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"No. I didn't know you then. Or that you were crazy." He's repeating himself a little bit on the crazy matter, but he feels its an important detail. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kelly nods. "Your honor, ladies and gentlemen, learned behavior based upon interaction and new information. Your witness." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Objection, your honor." Primm is already on his feet. "This is clearly rehearsed testimony." The judge looks as though he's acknowledging the outburst, but doesn't sustain or overrule, yet. "Miss Wilson, do you have anything in response?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	goesbothways 2012-11-29 02:55 am UTC (link)
	"I do. You were trying to program a civic minded super hero. Jack swore an oath in court. Was he programmed to lie under oath in front of a judge? Because, if so, are you so sure its super heroes you're trying to program? And honestly, Mr.Primm, do you truly believe Jack is that good of an actor? Do you expect anyone else to?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Primm's jaw locks for a long minute. "Objection withdrawn... no questions for the witness, your honor." The judge nods, then allows Jack to step down. "Are there any more witnesses or evidence?" Silence. "In that case, we'll reconvene in twenty-four hours. I'll have my final decision for you all. Court is adjourned." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	goesbothways 2012-11-29 03:25 am UTC (link)
	Kelly grins, and looks towards opposing counsel. "I'd suggest not leaving town, and making sure every scientist involved can be found, Mr. Primm. I'm sure you'd rather deal with local authorities checking your records over the FBI. You're going to look great in prison orange. Pretty sure Bubba will think so too." (Reply to this)(Parent)
