With Schwarzritter in compacted form floating beside her, not yet sent to Sukoro as that'd be tomorrow, Lucy seated herself on the vacant dining chair across the table from Maximilien's position. She was clad in pretty much the same outfit as earlier in the day, although her beret and short coat had been removed and hung on the same rack by the door. Naturally, she was served with the same menu as her host, the golden-brown roast duck glistening underneath the singular lamp reigning above the table. A private dining room, something Lucretia wasn't a stranger to, although she was more accustomed to a bigger table and a couple more chairs around said table. [color=76c0f0][b]"It is regarding Jeanne du Bordeaux and the crime of arson she committed against the Central Monument Library. I've been made aware that you're handling the legal process of her trial."[/b][/color] She replied as she watched the older boy prepare the duck for them, already wanting to get into the main topic immediately, but a few seconds later, the white-haired Polymath decided to partake in the private feast as well, using the silverware to join him in enjoying the roasted fowl and its accompanying side dishes. Even for an ambitiously obsessive Polymath, hunger was truly a strong motivator, a primal need that no humans are immune against. They enjoyed dinner for a moment before she continued her previous statement, [color=76c0f0][b]"It is only right that she is to be severely punished for her wanton barbarism, the senseless destruction of valuable knowledge, and the shame she smeared on the Occident and Polymaths as a whole. After what she did, to call her as one of our own is simply heinous,"[/b][/color] The white-haired German paused for a moment, leaning ever so slightly forward toward the black-haired Frenchman, [color=76c0f0][b]"What does it take for justice to be achieved?"[/b][/color]
