Dear Lord Chief Justice Stronghart,

Why didn't you translate the 3rd page of the Asogi Papers? You had Seishiro Jigoku right there who probably would've translated it for you. I'm sure you are smart enough to figure out the 3rd page's riddle and find Klint's will.

"Asogi's will?" "I did carefully ask Jigoku to read it over for me and let me know its particulars." "He informed me the last page was merely a haiku. A poem. An act of sentimentality for Asogi's son, I expect." "You say it was a riddle?" "If that's truly the case, then I am rather fortunate Jigoku didn't figure it out for himself." (I do doubt it, but... I wonder what has become of that last page now.)

Lord Stronghart, with the utmost respect and sheer pure curiosity I can extend with this question, why are you dressed like that as a figure of authority and face of law ? I wonder what the Queen thinks, genuinely. Quite bold, if I have to say. ( ooc for context op, please if you havent, check this silly treasure of a gem about stronghart's design [ more like outfit ] down there because good god it gave me a good cackle for the shits and giggles and i hope it gives you one too as well ) https://www.tumblr.com/infamouslydorky/731292473749618688/i-have-a-few-thoughts-on-mael-strongharts-overall?source=share

"Interesting. It seems as if you are running a bit slow on men's fashion." "Perhaps acquire a new watch." "Now, as it concerns Her Majesty..." "I've never heard her object."

Yo, Stronghart... why was Klint's alias when he was killing folks, "The Professor?"

"That was the name the newspapers came up with following the second killing." "The first two victims were criminals whose heinous crimes were an open secret for much of London's populace." "Subsequently, their killer was described by the more vulgar as 'teaching' them a lesson with their deaths..." "And so the lesson grew, with each death after." "I find such things to be more arbitrary than not; it is not a name I expected to catch on."

*Context: Lovett had been mugged and is being treated at the hospital*

Mr. Sithe: Ah, Courtney! Do not worry, I'm going to be alright. A thing the nurse said to me...uh, I mean the nurse told me the bleeding was internal. That's where the blood is supposed to be!

"The nurse said what?" "Oh, Lovett you incorrigible fool!" "Your color is off. Do you feel dizzy?" "Who is your surgeon? Do you know that much?" "Nevermind. I'll find him myself." "I'm bringing you something to eat. Don't move from that bed, I mean it." "OUT OF MY WAY."

Kazuma, how did you end up going to France with Gregson as the supposed Reaper's assassin?

"After I got my memories back, I approached Inspector Gregson myself and told him I had remembered my mission." "Of course, he didn't know what my real mission was at the time." "To say nothing of my search for the truth..." "He got me a ticket and had me come along with him to intercept Judge Jigoku." "...It was a bit awkward going back without him. He speaks French, and I don't."

Lord Barok van Zieks, how long have you known Gregson was involved in the Reaper conspiracy, and has it made it difficult to continue working with him?

"It was after I'd taken my break from prosecuting." "I did not step into a court of law, but I could not sit idle; a year into my self-imposed exile, I'd begun to uncover the truth." "You wonder if it makes it difficult for me to work with him? No." "What has changed from knowing?" "I had no trust to misplace. I can't possibly be any more betrayed."

Stronghart: Attention, Reapers. My hair looks amazing It has come to my attention that while you are all connected in my undetected machinations, we are in dire need of team-building. To ensure your loyalty to me, and by extension your fellow Reaper, I will begin an activity. I am the hunter. You are the prey. Find a hiding spot, and pray I do not find you. I call it... hide-and-seek. Last one to be found gets a day off.

I will begin the countdown, during which you will find an appropriate spot for you to conceal yourself. Now then...let's begin.

30...29...28...27...

"You must be joking." "You can strong-arm me into many things, my Lord, but playing social games is not one of them." "Consider me caught. I have work to do." "....... Stop counting."

Queen Victoria: I have heard from the people of London that they deem your wardrobe inappropriate. You will rectify this immediately Lord Stronghart.

(The people of London, hm?) "Oh?" "Of course, Your Majesty. I shall address these concerns posthaste."

"That all depends on what you mean by the term 'wet', doesn't it?" "To be wet usually connotes that something is 'covered' in water." "Whereas... can water be covered in itself?" "I certainly do not consider myself to be 'covered' in Courtney Sithe." "I'm going to answer no to this one."

Do you do any charity work?

"Myself, no." "I am not an... overly enthusiastic proponent of 'charity'." "Though my wife heads a committee that arranges charity bazaars." "Frivolous things, but it gives her some satisfaction... which I imagine is its true purpose to begin with."
