Good day. This is Miles Edgeworth.

I cannot accommodate you at the moment, but please leave a message and I will respond as soon as possible.

[...oh. Okay. He knows she's embarrassed and decides not to make further note of it.]

Very well. Understood.

[souperb]

[ ............... ]

thats it?

[prosecutory]

I understand that though this was not your fault, you must have felt great embarrassment upon recovering and remembering what you have done and said, and I respect that.

[That's the long version.]

But simply telling me not to breathe a word of it to anyone would have been enough.

action 11/20 or something

[Shirou went to Edgeworth's place for a lesson in Law. He's standing outside of Edgeworth's door taking a couple of deep breaths.]

Edgeworth?

[Knocking on the door once! Okay, so his voice sounds a little hi pitched. He's too nervous and can't deal with this. He respects Edgeworth too much and looking bad is just unacceptable. ]

[prosecutory]

[Edgeworth hears the knocking and answers it promptly. He gives Shirou a respectful smile in greeting.]

Hello, Shirou. [He gestures for his visitor to come inside.] Do come in.

[projections]

Excuse me then.

[Shirou walks inside of Edgeworth's place. It's bad because now all he can think about is his conversations with Athena. Living with Edgeworth must be weird. ]

Let me know when we can start the lesson. I'm ready whenever you are.

[prosecutory]

[No, not weird, just...you'd be surrounded by a lot of organization. And tea. At least everything is in place, the decor is simple and functional, etc.]

Would you care for some tea? I brewed some.

[projections]

Oh, sure. I'll have some tea.

What did you make?

[prosecutory]

Green tea. [Something simple and nondescript, for those days when you prefer unadorned tea. He gestures toward the sofa - predictably clean, as are the two chairs. The small table is devoid of any decoration.] Please, have a seat.

[projections]

[Shirou sits down like he's told to. He prepares a cup of tea for himself and nods.]

What's the lesson today, Edgeworth?

[prosecutory]

Hmm... [Edgeworth doesn't take a seat himself, but walks over to a shelf, looking for a book.]

Today we'll discuss the territoriality principle of criminal law. According to this principle, the laws of a country have no force in another.

[projections]

That sounds like a difficult concept to understand. [Attentively listening!]

Can you elaborate on it more?

Had an x-ray done today. Guess what they found? It was you, safely tucked away in my heart! They said my heart is fine with a friend like you in it. Send this to all the people you love and care for, if you get 5 back no one will break your heart. Xx

[ A message pops up in your inbox from an anonymous source. How strange! If you don't delete it immediately, you'll be greeted with an audio message that's quiet, at first. In fact, it's quiet enough that just in time for you to turn it up, it starts to speak. It sounds suspiciously like Xerxes Break if you know him, but at the same time, there's a totally stupid voice being used, since it's not like Break would send this message along. Emily, though? Of course. She's such a gossip. ]

Send this to all the people you love and care for, because if you don't, then something preeeety bad might happen to them! Heart failure is pretty serious~! Kehehehehehe!!!

(( ooc note ; break is sending this to literally everyone in the game, so I'm sorry... Feel free to figure out he caused it, since it's not like he's trying that hard to hide it. ))

If you're trying to be funny, you are doing a poor job of it.

Miss Cykes, do you really believe in chain letters?

text;

[prosecutory]

[He would have preferred a flamboyant magic trick over this nonsense, Trucy.

Well well. Look who's here and passing around the same chain letter Athena dumped into his inbox. Boy, it's a Japanifornia party up in here and everyone was invited, majority of them from the future.]

Trucy, I'm sure you're old enough to know that chain letters aren't real.

[ICON = HIS REACTION TO THIS FLOOD OF CHAIN LETTERS]

Pearl, do you really believe this chain letter?

text;

[psycholawgy]

Not at all :D

[madhatted]

Of course not. I'm simply concerned for my loved ones! After receiving this from someone else, it's my duty to pass it along.

[spiritpearls]

It's certainly not something to be messed with! You don't want your heart broken, do you Mr Edgeworth?

text;

[prosecutory]

Then why send me one in the first place?

[prosecutory]

Is the heart so easily swayed by a few lines of text?
