"There IS something that I wanted discuss!" he declares loudly, his finger still pointed right at the leopard. "Jurisdiction." Magnus swishes his finger down and casts a look back towards Anagram, recalling the events of the criminal's reformation, before turning back towards the leopard taur. "Ever since I joined up with the K9 unit, I have been pelted over the head with the importance of sticking to that one, very specific part of the city that we are allowed to operate, to set up sting operations, to perform raids or to bust criminals!" |

She shakes her head though, and writes down what Magnus had said and prepares to record the offical's responce. | ||

+ | Mr. Jupiter doesn't look too pleased by Magnus's outburst, a slight sneer coming to his features before he contains it. "Yes, it is important though that we make sure our various districts and departments work within their boundries to ensure that proper coverage and enforcement is upheld. There is a possibility for cross district cooperation, if the heads of the districts and departments, in coordination with the Chief of Districts, decide that such is a priority on our city's resources. I can understand your concerns though, umm... Officer..." He stops a moment to check the paperwork to see who is representing the K-9 department, "Officer Ottkins, and I'll bring them up the next time we have a meeting with the Chief of Districts." He clears his throat, "I do suppose that this is a good time to open the floor to matters of law enforcement that have been on the city council members' minds for a while. We do have a few complants about things that are bothersome, things that may need to warrent a punishment that don't currently. There has been some talk of instatuting traffic controls on our streets, and laws that outline what should be done if such is infracted upon, for example, a few months back a family of Fennecs was injured, two critically, when a Panther Taur, who was running late for his work, and was talking with his boss on his COMM unit, ran into an intersection at high speeds, impacting the family. Everyone involved has since made a complete recovery, but, what should the city do to help prevent this from occuring again? Are there any other incidents that there is no current law written for that should be discussed?"</div><br> <br><div title="Merv">Merv Merv pops up and chirps. "So how do you... direct flying? There are no light signs up there... traffic lights." His companion Melody purrs "More space to move though."</div><br> <br><div title="Bilyso">Bilyso dooks, "you don't really need traffic lights for flying unless you're as big as a plane or something like that. For smaller folks like me, we can pretty much just fly anywhere."</div><br> <br><div title="Korune">Korune chimes in from the side of the stage, "Current FAA guidelines have not applied, however general rule of thumb is managed in the rule the larger mutant has the right of way. I have yet to see an operating vehicle in the air but it would be safe to bet that they are a hazard and thus should always get the right of way, and by that I mean you should get Right Out of The Way!"

He starts typing out pages of notepads on his comm using nanomagic programs. He should really get a flash drive or something for later, he thinks to himself. He's been studying law from training courses and libraries for months now, and now there might be a crowd worked up enough to accept his plans without too much medling.</div> |

Magnus huffs softly to himself as he spots the cracked ceiling just above the entrance. He rubs at his neck as he recalls exactly how that damage was done, his expression telling that it was not a pleasant memory. His eyes glance over to the spot on the wall where basketball hoops hung, flashbacks wafting through his head of those long roundball games. He was so much taller back then... pointlessly so. His glance snaps onto the corner of the gymnasium, a soft sigh parting him as he recalls the yoga mats that rested there once, upon them the gymnists and that first crush he had as a stupid teenager in the new world, the girl he never had the balls to ask out. His ears flit left and right for a moment, distant echos of sports events being held, airhorns ringing and games being played by the best of the best in this modest school... he had a pretty good early months all things considered. It put a smile to his face... for it was so long ago now.
His attention is pulled away as he finds himself at the front of the crowd when a familiar face makes her presence known. "Figures." Magnus mutters under his breath as he spots Sasha taking the stand. She was the outspoken type, event host and what not. Still, seeing her so... round, while on duty, the fox doubted it'd ever stop being so jarring. He crosses his arms, and listens in, there was nothing to comment on right now, after all.- THWAP* the fox' footpaw strikes the ground. "This is absurd!
