"Eve: Order Zero" -- a KSP Graphic Novel (POSTLUDE COMPLETE...bet you didn't see THAT coming.)


Recommended Posts

Witness bribed by a PATCH!

Mort could always move that the witness be disqualified for literally wearing his loyalties to the defendants on his sleeve... but then again, Kenlie was called as a prosecution witness so Mort's kind of screwed. Anyway, there go all the charges for:

--unlicensed manufacture of an intoxicant

--contributing to the delinquency of an enzin

--pickpocketing

--unlawful abandonment

--piracy

...for which Kenlie is the sole witness. And yes, I do have a complete list of charges (as does Deeman... er, Dman) but there's no way we can properly deal with or even mention all of them in the comic. I'm sure Parkaboy and Aryam can appreciate how tough it is to do a trial scene like this and have any part of the page NOT be text :)

That's not written in the manual. It's written in our hearts.

Your honor, I move to dismiss Juror Parkaboy for prejudice!

Silly Kuzzter! There's a reason that the best comic strips plan their stories out in advance! You should try it sometime!

Says the one guy who's already read the script of Bob's testimony :P

This is the list I sent Dman... JB refer to Jeb abd Bill respectively, of course:

Mutiny (JB)

Climbing a flagpole without authorization (J)

Public performance without a license (the Hamlet scene) (J)

Operating a commercial vehicle without a license (the truck) (B)

Attempted aggravated theft of rocket parts (the M7 parts on the truck) (B)

Failure to adhere to a filed flight plan (the fundstar) (JB)

Grand theft aircraft (JB)

Barratry (first count--the fundstar) (J) -- Accessory to same (B)

Grand theft spacecraft (first count) (JB)

Barratry (second count--M7) (J) -- Accessory to same (B)

Liftoff without a valid flight plan (J) -- Accessory to same (B)

Failure to signal a gravity turn (J)

Unlicensed manufacture of an intoxicant (B)

Contributing to the delinquency of an enzin (JB)

Counterfeiting of mission patches (B)

Petit larceny/pickpocketing (J)

Unlawful abandonment (of Kenlie) (JB)

Piracy (JB)

Grand theft spacecraft (second count) (JB)

Aggravated failure to file a flight plan before changing SOI (J)

There are some others, but I may need to hold them as surprises.

"Carrying out mining operations without a permit" (JB)

"Abandonment (second count, of Billmobile)" (JB)

and probably a few more Eve-based transgressions.

Nope, the mission was sanctioned by that point--though if Kerbfleet were a really serious organization they'd have something to say about Bill, Bob and Tedus throwing a party when they were supposed to be guiding the M7.

The one that I worry about is 'Failure to signal a gravity turn.'

Now that sounds really serious. :D!

Among the many fine tropes we're using this week... arson, murder and jaywalking :)

...i hope i can still show up without beeing bashed for any spoken words...:rolleyes:

You did great! You gave truthful testimony to help the defense establish that while 'no one gets left behind' isn't in the book of General Orders, it's none the less a key part of Kerbfleet culture and academy training. That's the real question here--and yeah, I did take this whole line of questioning from "A Few Good Men" but I'm a pastiche artist and that's what I do :) Now, let's see whether Mort can add some cement to the wall of evidence that is the written Orders, or if Deeman can chip some of it away...

Very happy I got Bob's testimony all on one page. Am really hoping to get this chapter in at a reasonable size. Just one witness left, after Tedus...
