centripetal: (it burned wild)

[ oh, goodness, he even sounds lawyer-y. not that she knows how, exactly, that sounds... but if she knew, it would be like this.

that's getting confusing in her head. ]

I'm Colette. Colette Brunel. We haven't met--except for now, heh heh. [ very much relieved that he responded man. ] I had a couple of questions about being a lawyer...
prosecutory: (♘ choirs are singing)

[personal profile] prosecutory 2013-06-16 07:58 am (UTC)(link)
[One thing at a time, Colette.

A young girl...okay. That begs the question of what on earth she would like to talk to him about that had to do with being a lawyer.]

A pleasure to meet you, Miss Brunel. [Edgeworth isn't sure of the age so when in doubt, address her formally!] What are your questions? I will do my best to answer.
centripetal: (you're running through a maze)

[personal profile] centripetal 2013-06-16 04:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh! Just Colette is fine, Mister Edgeworth. So...

[ hmm. now she has to decide what question to ask. she has so many of them, but there's one that sticks out in her mind. it is the one yozora told her to ask, after all.

so after the smallest pause, filled with a hum, she goes: ]

Um... your cravat! Is that your special item with powers that lawyers have? Can you see and unlock a person's secrets?

[ she is actually quite serious when she says this. ]
prosecutory: (♘ one minute I held the key)

1/?

[personal profile] prosecutory 2013-06-21 03:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[There is a pregnant pause as Edgeworth stares at his phone after Colette finishes speaking. Wait...what? Special item? With powers?

See and unlock a person's secrets?! No, no, that's the blasted green thing Wright lent him that one time.

Good thing this isn't a video call, Edgeworth's expression right now would be pretty priceless.]
prosecutory: (♙ all these feelings I've shared)

2/3

[He tries to gather his thoughts and his composure. Okay, there was that guy who came from a world where dragons existed and credit cards didn't. By now he knows that quite a few people would not be familiar with the concept of lawyers. But to think that lawyers rely on objects with powers to do their job? Preposterous! Only not really.]

Ah...er...

[Edgeworth honestly has no idea how to feel about this. His cravat, a lie detector? This was a new one.]
prosecutory: (♘ never an honest word)

[personal profile] prosecutory 2013-06-21 03:52 pm (UTC)(link)
...

The answer to both of those questions is no. [Although to be fair, his cravat is special to some extent, in that it is one of the remnants of his von Karmic upbringing and has remained as a fashion statement he has adopted for himself.] What - or who - on earth gave you those ideas?
centripetal: (get ready!)

[personal profile] centripetal 2013-06-21 04:01 pm (UTC)(link)
... No? Really? [ what the hell? she sounds so... surprised. almost disappointed. wait, maybe--he had to keep it secret? it sounded so useful, it made sense.

she perks up. ] Oooh, I get it. I won't tell anyone, promise.

[ ha. ha. ha. ]

Why do you wear your cravat then, if it doesn't unlock people's secrets? [ wink, wink. ] And it was my friend, Yozora, who told me about the magical items. I'll tell her not to tell too, don't worry!
prosecutory: (♙ it's not what it was before)

1/2

[personal profile] prosecutory 2013-06-22 08:27 am (UTC)(link)
[What. No. NO. THAT'S NOT WHAT HE MEANT. HE'S NOT HIDING ANYTHING.]

No, no, my cravat really has nothing to do with exposing secrets!
prosecutory: (♘ I can't explain; I know)

[personal profile] prosecutory 2013-06-22 08:40 am (UTC)(link)
[He clears his throat.] It is a fashion statement, a part of my suit. [Does he not have freedom to choose what to wear everyday?]

"Magical" items are not required in the legal profession. [That didn't stop a certain Phoenix Wright from even resorting to spirit channeling, but...psh, that's him. EDGEWORTH HAS HIS OWN WAYS.]
centripetal: (with strength inside you.)

[personal profile] centripetal 2013-06-29 06:43 am (UTC)(link)
[ no, no he doesn't. but at hearing this, there's a bit of a silence. so there wasn't any magical items? were things different in yozora's world? they had to be...

HOW STRANGE. ]

I guess there's lots of different types of lawyers out there, if that's just for fun! [ because that is certainly the weirder thing when compared to a lie-destroying cravat. ] Do you still have to pass the bar in a relay race to become one in your world? A lawyer, I mean. That's my next question.
prosecutory: (♘ it was a wicked and wild wind)

[personal profile] prosecutory 2013-07-06 07:02 am (UTC)(link)
[THAT'S NOT FOR FUN, COLETTE. At least Phoenix doesn't add magic into the equation for fun...at least the guy had enough sense to not do THAT. HOPEFULLY. But before Edgeworth could point out that it's really not for fun ESPECIALLY WHEN HE HIMSELF HAD TO USE THAT MAGATAMA...

A relay race. Passing the bar.

PASSING THE BAR IN A RELAY RACE.]

That's...no, of course not! The "bar" refers to the examination that one must take before he is admitted as a lawyer. Running a race has absolutely no bearing on one's capacity to enter the legal profession.
centripetal: (went crashing through the sea.)

[personal profile] centripetal 2013-07-07 08:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ......

hear the sound of broken dreams, edgeworth. for--guess what--you've just shattered this one's. dreams, that is. ]

You mean... there's no race? [ so. sadly. ] But it sounded so fun. ... Lawyers really are different in your world.

[ how is she supposed to become a lawyer for yozora if there's no race involved? she's been practising so hard! ]
prosecutory: (♙ now that we're here; it's so far away)

[personal profile] prosecutory 2013-07-13 06:30 am (UTC)(link)
[SORRY HE HAS NO IDEA HE JUST SHATTERED A GIRL'S DREAMS...oh no is she disappointed...]

No, unless you count the race against time to finish the bar examination within the given time period.

[IT'S NOT EASY BEING A LAWYER.]
