[There is a package in the mailbox, it looks like it was wrapped very badly, some of the teal paper torn and a red hair tie using to keep it together. A bright red tail is sticking out. Attached is a note.]

SALESMAN CHOCOCHERRY HAS A CASE TO PRESENT TO THE PROSECUTION.

From:

[Shortly after Terezi posts her announcement to the bulletin board, a letter is deposited in her mailbox - the paper is folded on itself twice and sealed with a blot of wax that bears no mark or stamp, and the writing is careful and precise, if somewhat spidery. Murai delivers the letter herself, but she doesn't hang around after placing it in the mailbox.]

To the Honored Terezi Pyrope, greetings.

Your recent attempt to impress a code of law upon our community has caught my attention. I believe your intentions are laudable and your enthusiasm admirable. We do, indeed, need to establish what behaviors are acceptable before problems arise. Your methods, however, are somewhat clumsy and likely to gain you more enemies than allies.

If you would have my council, I would be glad to give it. Perhaps we might meet in person to discuss matters?

If you do not wish to speak with me, I fully understand, but must ask that you know that if I cannot rely on your cooperation and it comes to it that I must exercise my own best judgement, neither can you rely on mine.

I hope that we may work together, for the good of the community. May justice and peace walk with you, by Heaven's will.

Murai, agent of the Order of the Veil

[The missive looks more like a telegram than a letter. Probably as it was dictated and meant to be as such. It's written in the bee language.]

Do you have holding cell for criminals as part of legal board activities? Or pit in which to chuck them? Devoid of light necessary.

[In response to her letter about Kelt, left in Dustin's mailbox earlier in the day: ]

Kelt deserves jack shit.

She sat on her ass while the rest of us were going insane and angrily knit a blanket. Yes, she answered basic questions about what the fuck was going on, but when her resources could have been better spent actually going to their little god house and kicking Pai in his tight spoiled ass--knowing that he was responsible and yet refusing to go to a place where she could do something about it--makes her about the shittiest temporary overseer out of the lot.

If you want to give her a bunch of stupid gold stars for putting as little effort into our well-being as possible, then that's your prerogative. But don't pretend that the rest of us will lower ourselves to your level if you leave a bunch of notes lying around to pander to them.

[Terezi will find the following threatening letter in the mailbox should it be checked.]

Now hear this:

On this day, the 24th of August by your human accounting, we have captured the most despicable Mailsloth. The League of Legislacerators wish it to be known that they have no name for this contemptible criminal. Never have we heard of such disrepute! A vagabond without a name!

Might those who wonder at her crimes be informed that she stands accused as such:

1. Excessive sloth
2. Dereliction of duty
3. Marauding about without any purpose
4. Egregious misuse of a Mailsloth’s hat

If you want to have her back
Better be quick and find the sack
She kept the letters and mail in
Even when they were getting thin.

Go to the east where the bridge overthrows
The river you’ve forded or watched as it goes.
Beneath the trellis, tucked up really tight,
You’ll find the bag there, so use all your might.
It’s more than a one-person job you will find.
So, take on a partner, or two, six, or nine!

- The Wholly Legal and Within Their Rights League of Legislacerators

[Waspfire hand-delivers the letter herself. Well, in a manner of speaking. She kind of just telekinetically chucks the letter into the mailbox as she goes past, and she certainly doesn't stick around to see if there's a reply.]

[It takes only a few minutes of careful investigating for Dustin to figure out what this odd light is supposed to be for, thanks to Zephyr's helpful wish picture, and what the intended use should be. From there, the culprit is obvious. Who else knows that he's afraid of the dark? Who else would think to insult him so blatantly for it? There's no other explanation--it's got to be Terezi, taking a dig at him. Dustin doesn't have to put up with this.]

[He at least doesn't destroy the light, since it's technically Zephyr's, but he's not delicate about wrapping it before sending it off with Lady Harriet. It'll arrive with his note.]

FUCK OFF

Is this funny? Are you having a good fucking laugh? Congratulations, I'm sure you're really fucking proud.

Just leave me alone.

[A bundle appears in Terezi's mailbox (the tree one because Harriet loves her some trees) made of the most colorful cloth Di could scavenge out of her wardrobe. A sad unworn shirt died for this bundle.

Inside is a single carved dragon headed letter opener, made from the blue wood of her own trees, The edge is probably carved a little too sharp for that. And who even uses letter openers in the Meadous. Beneath it is a note]

I'm not really sure what a letter opener is but I saw something similar in one of my books and thought I'd try to make one. I kept it sharp fur you but do try not to use it on anyone?

From:

truepsychictale

I feel like I should at least explain why I am so angry and exactly who made me so upset with this entire trainwreck of a conversation and why I am worried about the conviction of it all.

Because Terezi, we both have been in groups together that fell apart as quickly as they were built when a number of the group found something to be a magpie at.

I feel like it would be best for us to express our feelings over something that is not a text based medium to proper tones/easier explanation can happen.

Because despite all of this, I do see you as a friend, and I do not want to lose it over something that we could work on and fix.

You can choose a time and location, and I will be there.

Terezi, I don't really know how I'm supposed to ask this, I know you offered but it feels weird to be dumping all my shit on someone who wasn't there and probably has a million better things to do with their time than deal with it--

[ there's a lot crossed out and erased here, all of it varying levels of self depreciation, sorry for the mess. ]

I guess basically I'm just wondering if you have any spare time anytime soon or whenever and feel like talking for a bit and if not I'm sorry I'm wasting your time. - Jeremy

[Aletheia will be getting her Christmas cookies this year, and like everyone in the Meadous, they get a personalized theme. Her cookies are of various trees and poinsettas. It's a celebration of her special connection to the Trees and the Meadous. Even if he sneaked in a clown cookie in there... Some Erosian traditions are never forgotten, like matchmaking.]

Dear Aletheia,

The year may have been rough on you but you came out stronger in the end. I'm glad you're doing okay and I hope this next year, you'll enjoy life the fullest. Nothing can keep you down!
