001 ❖ [video]

[ The video starts to show a man with a sense of refinement and formality, sitting primly at a desk in what seems to be a rather spacious and neat and normal apartment. The bed is made, the closets are closed, and not a single item seems to be out of place, pretty much. The occupant himself is wearing a suit with a distinct shade of red (if you ask him, he’ll say it’s red, but others might say magenta, or pink), a dark vest and a frilly white cravat. His gray eyes betray a touch of impatience and irritation, but he remains still and clears his throat. ]

Good morning. My name is Miles Edgeworth, and I am a public prosecutor. Like all of you, I have been brought to this...this location against my will and through as yet unknown means.

[ Standing not so primly behind him is a girl. And, while Edgeworth may be the picture of poise and dignity, his companion with the bright pink shirt and the golden key dangling from her ponytail is most definitely not. This could be attributed to the way she’s currently mimicking his posture and expression with exaggerated motions. Edgeworth frowns, she grimaces comically. He clears his throat, she clutches at hers like she’s choking.

It’s probably a good thing that he hasn’t turned around yet. ]


And as of now, no one has found a way to leave and return to where they came from. [ He folds his arms across his chest, tapping his right index finger on his left arm. Edgeworth clearly wants nothing better than to return to where he came from, and still does not notice what the girl behind him is up to. ] Though we currently have information regarding the various districts and our...hosts, there is a dearth of knowledge not only regarding how we got here and how to leave, and why we are even here in the first place.

[ The girl makes a noise, a hoity-toity quiet sort of “harrumph harrumph”, as she folds her arms in imitation of Edgeworth’s pose. When he glances over his shoulder at her, though, her hands are clasped in front of her chest and her gaze is earnest and absolutely innocent. ]

That’s horrible, isn’t it, Mr. Edgeworth? All those unsolved mysteries! All those uneaten Swiss Rolls I stashed under your couch cushions, left to get all moldy... we should get on that investigation bit soon!

[ He lets his arms drop. Though he is now facing away, one could figure out from his voice that his expression is very deadpan. ]

If you do leave anything under my couch, you are responsible for cleaning it up, Kay. [ The prosecutor faces his phone again, forehead furrowed in thought. ] Now, this brings me to my proposal: It would do us and potential newcomers good to have a document compiled with what we know, as it may help us deduce new information and lead us closer to the truth, instead of simply leaving everyone’s findings scattered across the network. I have scoured it for anything worth remembering, but anyone should feel free to contribute.

[ He pauses to reach up and adjust his cravat a bit.

In response, Kay reaches up to arrange her muffler in the manner of his cravat. Except that mufflers aren’t cravats and instead of adjusting hers, she tightens it a little too much and lapses into a squeaky choked noise when it proves a wee bit uncomfortable.

At that, Edgeworth turns around again, a bit faster this time. ]


What are you doing?!

[ Before dealing with his assistant, he reaches out to switch his phone off. The last thing anyone will hear is Kay’s protest of “You’ll scare them all away if you don’t lighten the mood!!” That’s all, folks.

And expect tags from either Edgeworth, Kay, or both of them. ]

[... is he applauding? Yes. Yes he is.

Apparently deciding that neither are quite enough here, The Ninja has shrugged off the comforting semi-anonymity of a simple text or audio reply, meaning that Edgeworth has the pleasure of that trademark vulpine smirk of his plastered across his screen. Whilst he's intrigued by the suggestion of cataloguing what they know so far, he just can't help himself, especially when it comes to people as severe as poker-faced as this man seems to be. Where the pink suit and cravat- and, for that matter, the perky sidekick- fit into that, however, is beyond him.]


Do you two do theatre? There must be some places here crying out for a double-act like that. [There's a brief, infuriating pause- one long enough to let that sink in but just short enough to intercept any less than amused replies- before he continues.] But putting that to one side, you've piqued my interest. What kinds of things did you deem worthy of remembering?

[There was one VERY VERY piece of information here that Apple Bloom HAS to know. Screw the rest of it - it's something REALLY IMPORTANT, OKAY?!]

....What's a public prosecutor?

[... Snrrrrk. Okay, Fiole can't help but be amused by that, but he stifles any laughter he might have and tries to help Edgeworth retain some of his dignity—]

I'm not sure how much useful information I might have [especially considering he was half-dead when he arrived] but I'd be more than happy to help, if there's anything I can do.

Good afternoon, Mr. Edgeworth. And the same to your companion. Kay, was it? Your name is not unfamiliar to me. I am Kristoph Gavin of Gavin Law Offices. [Well, not anymore, but no one has to know that.]

I'd be more than willing to help you with your laudable investigation, but so far I've learned nothing of import aside from those basic facts you have yourself laid out already. If I find myself faced with any new revelations, I will gladly share them with you.

I'm also looking for information on this place. Not that I've found any, but it would be nice to learn why exactly we're here, and why we were brought here. And how.

[It is really weird!!]

Though, I guess I can still learn something from this. What's a public prosecutor?

[Mikio watched in interested silence at the whole event. While he was intrigued by what such a serious looking man had to say, his attention kept turning towards the adorable little girl behind him. Mikio formed the slightest hint of a smile.]

Children. Such pure-spirited creatures...

[That smile turned into a frown once it seemed that the girl was in discomfort of some kind.]

D-don't turn it off. Is she alri-

[Aaaand the phone went off. Great. Hopefully Kay didn't choke to death.]

I think he'd definitely run offstage if I tried...

[ life is so tragic, isn't it, Kay? ]

We've got our culprit!!

You can tell him that he needs to lighten up a little...

[ she might have been scolded.

A lot. ]

[There's a lot of digest here! Mr. Edgeworth is here and with a girl? And they seem to know each other, but Maya's never seen her. She seems pretty friendly and funny. Maya can respect that.

What seems most important though is that she's choking. Oh...oh no.]


DO THE HEIMLICH MANEUVER!

[It was the first medical thing that popped into her head okay.]

Gavin Law Offices...? Are you a prosecutor too?

Basically, it's his job to put the bad guy away!

[ don't worry. Far from being asphyxiated or scolded (to death, anyway), Kay appears once more. Fully alive and a little grumpy, no less. ]

I'm not a child, I'm seventeen. [ a responsible adult of society, don't you know. ]

Maybe you could use a dummy instead. How are you at ventriloquy?

No, although I have a great deal of respect for the prosecution, I come from the other side of the courtroom. I'm a defense attorney.

[personal profile] farakay 2013-03-11 09:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Did you ever face Mr. Edgeworth in valiant battle?

[personal profile] farakay 2013-03-11 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm okay!!

[ kind of gasping for breath, but sure, she's swell. ]

But wow, I didn't think he could yell for so long without taking a breath...

[personal profile] farakay 2013-03-11 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Not so good, but I could practice!

Sadly, I haven't had the pleasure. Perhaps if we're able to return home, I'll have that opportunity someday.

[No, he won't. They generally don't let people defend from jail.]

[personal profile] farakay 2013-03-11 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
I'd like to see that! [ Kay no. ]

D'you know the name Faraday, then? [ because Kay doesn't remember all the defense attorneys her dad went up against, but... ]
spiritualist: ((010) mischievous.)

[personal profile] spiritualist 2013-03-11 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[Good because she would have been yelling medical words that wouldn't have been any help.]

I'm glad you're okay! Mufflers are a lot more dangerous than I thought they would be. You do a great Mr. Edgeworth impersonation, by the way.

1/2

Thanks, I'm pretty proud of it mysel--

Wait a sec, you know him??
