Musings on the "depose" part of "deny, defend, depose":

When I first read those words, my mind, like most people's I think, read "depose" in the sense of "overthrow". Like how you'd depose a king, kicking him out of his position of authority, in a way that may or may not involve him losing his life as well as his power over others.

But when I mentioned it to a friend, that friend brought up that the word has a second meaning that might be relevant here as well.

In the legal field, "depose" is the verb form of "deposition". Deposition itself is one of the ways you can go about getting evidence from somebody. A deposition is when you get someone to swear that they're telling the truth, and you ask them questions, or ask them for explanations, and they have to answer truthfully. Documents might be part of a deposition, but it's not about the documents themselves, exactly; it's about what they mean, the essential truth behind what the documents describe.

(In my line of work, this might be something like, "Does that income amount listed on your court filing include this bonus listed in your bank statements?" but with a lot of questions leading up to that one to establish things like the bonus being from their employer and deposited into their bank account.)

In a way, it's like the cross-examination part of a trial isolated. (Assuming that it's the other side being deposed; it could also be a witness or third party, but almost by definition you only do depositions on a party that isn't your own client in the case.) One side asks the hard questions, and unless those questions break rules, the other side has to answer them. And like cross-examination, if someone's not truthful in a deposition, that can cause them to face all sorts of sanctions for perjury.

Now, it's very probable that the assassin in this case meant the word only in the more commonplace sense of the word, comparing the CEO to a ruler that needs to be removed from power. But when you consider the legal definition of the word, it seems almost like an ultimatum:

Tell the truth about your unjust business practices, or else lose your power to enact them.

Be deposed, or else be deposed.

(meme in question) I drew/color blocked this all out back in FEBRUARY. But! Clearly! I remained stuck forever and as much as I would have liked to finish it properly, I never did. So instead of letting it collect dust in my wips forever and never see the light of day, I’ll just finally show what basic gist I did accomplish. Even if it is super messy.

I didn’t reach the point where any actual mask was made… 😔

A little different than last year's, but here we are again. To say that this past year hasn't been absolutely wild would be a lie, cause HOLY SHIT MAN

This year's birthday is. A little different for me, but you already have the silly comic to show that so I won't make like a broken record oops

But, despite the changes and hills that life's decided I should climb or throw at, it hasn't changed the fact that I'm so genuinely fucking thankful to the people that I've known since joining this fandom. I'm not even kidding when I say that being here has actually changed my life for the better. I know I said something similar last year, but this time, hoo boy it sure turned up the AMP and test how far I could go.

So, to everyone, both new and old; thank you for being here :D

[marlowe-art]

hey um i think something weird's happening to the sun? no i don't mean the eclipse, i mean it seems to be uh. pluralizing?

sometimes i like to draw things based solely on the "hey wouldn't it be fucked up if this happened?" principle. this is one of those times.

nicobaster weekend day 1, AU :3

basically over 2 YEARS ago I found this idea and got so invested i took it and RAN. I really liked it so I made an entire fic about it in google docs, with stuff I was interested in.

so yes this includes alabaster, as well as the weird detail in which i gave nico wings? i just really liked (and still like) characters with wings so i gave myself creative freedom. (speaking of which, al originally DIED in this, but it was for a stupid reason so I'm bringing him back)

anywayyss made this kind of concept art that if I saw in sixth grade i would go batshit over!

(this is all very self-indulgent lmao)

(side note: if the person who made the idea sees this, please tell me if you would rather me not have this up! just because of how much I changed and made my own)
