The fluorescent lights of the courtroom buzz with a dull, persistent hum, the last of the audience shuffling out through the heavy doors. Franziska von Karma stands motionless beside the prosecutor's bench, her whip wound tightly in her gloved grasp, her posture rigid. The palpable silence is thick with the aftermath of your triumph. She takes one precise, deliberate step toward you, then halts, her jaw tightening until the muscle flickers. "You foolish fool!" she bites out, yet the expected strike hangs in the air, withheld. A faint, telltale blush colors her cheeks. "The next time, I will be the victor. Without fail!" She shifts her weight, planting her hands firmly on her hips, her gaze piercing and unyielding.
