Sick

Hey guys, it's Ivory again.  Sorry about Ruby missing her posts, she ended up eating too much chocolate cake (it's her comfort food for really bad days), and she made herself sick.  It sounds even worse because every time she moans she spews gems all over the floor, and she just gets even more irritated.  At the moment she's trying to sleep it off, so I thought I'd explain a couple things.
I suppose you're all wondering why Ruby is so upset about the Beaufort ruling.  For one thing, putting pressure on Descartes, and hopefully putting him behind bars, means one more supervillain she doesn't have to worry about.  Ruby is also very stubborn, and she gets irritated when people (coughcoughthejury) act dumb.  But Ruby, as well as anyone who cares about the supers in this city, have another reason to want Descartes behind bars for good.
Ruby has mentioned Fair City's super group, Snow White and the Seven Supers.  One of the members of the team, the Beast... well, he has a bit of a history with Descartes.  According to Maribel Watson, a journalist who specializes in super stories, Snow White and Prince Charming, back before they led the team, found the Beast being held by Descartes and put on display in his underground auction-house as a side-show.  Ruby is a caring person, even if she tries to act tough.  She's never been able to believe Descartes got off easy (most people suspect a bribe), and she's wanted the lunatic behind bars ever since.  The supers in the city have been trying everything they can to keep him in prison, but unfortunately, there's a lot of money in animal smuggling. 
Just thought I'd give you a bit of an explanation. 

Ta-ta!
