[from here]

[She smirks a bit as she glances over to him, before tipping her head to the side.]

But where's the fun in that? If you can't win a debate when you're drunk, then what kind of half-assed debater are you?

[To be frank, she won't be that drunk. Her dad taught her better than that and she came here partially to escape her father's alcoholism, not develop some of her own. She's never said no to a good glass of wine, though.]

[idkiforgot]

I mean, I'm great. I'm sure I could win a debate drunk, sober, hanging upside down handcuffed to a roof, whatever. I was just trying to be helpful.

[prosecutorial]

[She laughs.]

Handcuffed to a roof? Now that's something I think I have to see.

[idkiforgot]

For example. Not that it's a thing that's ever actually happened to me.

[prosecutorial]

[Laurel thinks that's an oddly specific example, but she shrugs.]

All part of the training, right? To be quick on your feet with an argument, no matter what the other side throws at you?

[idkiforgot]

Yeah, exactly. However, if you wanted to handcuff me to a roof ... actually, no, I'm still gonna pass on that.

[prosecutorial]

[And that makes her laugh.]

Probably smart. Maybe it's my dad being a cop but I usually find it wiser to try and stay out of handcuffs.

[idkiforgot]

That's probably smart. Anyway, debating. It'd probably be a waste of time, anyway. I'd just win. You seem like the only real competition, so ...

[prosecutorial]

Hey now.

[She turns to face him with a bit of disbelief.]

You haven't seen me in action. How do you know you'd win?

[idkiforgot]

I mean, like I said, you're my only competition. You could win. I'm good at reading people, you seem pretty sharp.

[prosecutorial]

[So long as he still sees her as competition.]

I am. But if this is going to be a real challenge, guess I'll have to study up.

[idkiforgot]

What are we even debating about? Do they draw topics out of a hat?

[prosecutorial]

They were having us come up with topics before. Maybe we can get a sneak peak at the list?

[idkiforgot]

Yeah, sure. The advantage couldn't hurt.

[prosecutorial]

[She glances over her shoulder.]

Where did the people in charge go?

[idkiforgot]

Uh ... that's a good question. Inside?

[prosecutorial]

[She nods.]

Let's check it out.

[And off they'll go to investigate puzzles and debates /scene?]

[idkiforgot]

[yes sounds legit!!]
