IT IS NOT THAT BAD!

[yuberdemon]

Now, now, Elena. You and Shu both complained that I didn't do a public opinion poll, so now I am.

[im_not_a_rookie]

This isn't-- But that wasn't about this! It was about you stalking me!

[yuberdemon]

We already passed that resolution yesterday though. We can't vote on that twice. Today's is on your cooking and whether or not serving it to someone qualifies as deadly intent.

[regenerable]

Don't think, so no. Just an unfortunate accident.

[yuberdemon]

Accidental homicide then?

[regenerable]

Who did she poison with her cooking?

[yuberdemon]

It's all theoretical. If it did kill someone is it 'death by misadventure', 'accidental homicide', or just 'murder with a deadly weapon'?

[tinminiskirt]

Accidental homicide, unless she deliberately poisoned it.

[yuberdemon]

Thank you for your vote! Tell a friend!

[astagnantpause]

"Manslaughter's" less leading than "accidental homicide," though.

[yuberdemon]

Good point. I'll add that as one of the voting options.

[astagnantpause]

Ideally it supplants "accidental homicide."

[yuberdemon]

I would, but we already had a vote for 'accident homicide'. I could put them together. That way people know they basically mean the same thing, but someone was trying to be nicer.
