Playing both hands

[blindingtrust]

This trail was driving Ivy nuts. She knew with every fiber of her being the accused was guilty. She could tell by the evidence. She had been at this long enough to know when someone was guilty. But she knew it would be hard to do much of anything with Glenn as his defense.

She hated that Glenn was just as good as her. Better even because he had charm while she was more like an Ice Queen here.

That was what had her on her feet quick as she could for her next deflection. Did he just use Edward Nygma versus Gothan City, July 2002? Oh hell no.

"I object Your Honor. In that case it was thrown out latter as it turns out Mr Nygma was never a flight risk. The Court had every right to assume that Mr Whitaker was a flight risk while he continued to take his medication, which he has access to and has been reported as taking." Oh ex-hubby of hers do not make her forth with rage outside of court, she likes to keep her cool. She knows he will know he just got under her skin here.

She might smile if he says that and that will only get her madder at him.

She glares in his direction feeling her temper starting to rise again. Damn it she lost to him and she knows it. In a way he is offering her the easy way out so she can save face.

"We'll take it.... Honestly Councilor, I believe that he can turn himself around. He's not like the.... usual crowd I have to put away."

"He's not the normal kind I get either," he admits. "C'mon. I'll take him into the other room, we can glare at each other a little more and we'll -"

He stops mid-sentence with his eyes glued over Ivy's head. She'll know what the tone and the quck squeeze on the arm mean when he says, "Would you excuse me?"

"Ah yes, like we do," she teases him gently cooling down a little from her earlier temper spike.

She can't stop the way the smile fades from her face. Of course dear she understands. "Of course Councilor."
