[4th wall]

[ The feed sputters on to one Miles Edgeworth giving the network the most confused face. ]

I woke up this morning and went outside for a walk... did the hotel in Olivine always have this wriggling piece of plywood outside its doors?

[ He pans the camera around to show a ragged-looking mascot dancing pitifully, on and on. ]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

What in the name of - [DAT BADGER. First he got dumped into this weird place again, and now...

For now he's just staring at the BLUE BADGER and doesn't notice you. Yet.]

[ BADGER IS DANCING. DANCING. DANCING...

and a miniworth who doesn't remember you is staring at you. ]

[Then - oh, hey, he's not alone. Bigworth looks and -

HOLY FLYING FUDGE that is, without a doubt, himself at age ten. HIMSELF. No, wait, there has to be a trick to this. Something's up. But...but...OMG.]

G-Gah - !

[ WHY ARE YOU GAH-ING.

Shota jumps. ]

W-what is it?

[WHY SHOULD I NOT BE GAH-ING ALSDKFJALDFJDSL he steps back as well. Suddenly, the badger is forgotten as Bigworth just...stares at you and tries to make sense of this.]

You...you are...?

[ he now recognizes the face. He would of course recognize the grey hair he frowned at back home, and the one he now didn't mind so much every morning as he tried in vain to flatten that curl at the back. ]

... It's Miles.

I...I see. [Maybe the boy had a different surname, or maybe the name was spelled differently, like Myles. But somehow, Bigworth doubts it. It's almost like he has traveled back in time to see himself. That look, that hair, those eyes...]

[ There is no hesitation. ]

You're Miles Edgeworth. The prosecutor.

[Urk. Not that he would actually say "urk" because that's more of Phoenix's style.

Looks like he also knows.]

Correct.

[He puts his hand into his pocket and contemplates bringing out his badge, but...nah.

No, this can't be right. Time travel? Meeting his own self? Preposterous! There has to be a logical explanation for this.]

You have heard of me?

Every day, since the day I was born. [ Which is true. He grew up hearing his name all the time, after all. ]

[That's...uh...

...

What. This situation is becoming less and less preposterous because he really does see himself in this kid...]

My name is Miles Edgeworth. My father's name was Gregory Edgeworth.

I live with Manfred von Karma now.

[ The significance of those names... even Miles knows this, even at this age. ]

...

That...that cannot be possible. []

How do you figure? [ THIS IS YOU. FROM SIXTEEN YEARS OR SOMETHING AGO. CHALLENGING YOU. ]

Because I, as you yourself have mentioned earlier, am Miles Edgeworth. I am an only child, and I have long since left Manfred von Karma to pursue my career on my own. ["Left" in more ways than one.

Then he digs into his pocket for his wallet, and pulls out his driver's license.]

We cannot possess the exact same identity.

Not simultaneously. But it was 2002 where I came from... time doesn't matter here. [ Though he does wonder why they could exist here at the same time, as well. ]

[You're not the only one. Bigworth is confused and is trying his best not to show it.]

...

Evidence. If you are truly...rather, surely you know the significance of evidence.

[ He has the saddest look. ] I lost everything I had before I was brought here. Even if I had anything... they're not here.

[Hmmmm.]

In that case, testimony will suffice.

When did you win your first essay contest, and what was the theme?

Edited 2011-06-01 04:33 (UTC)

It was in third grade, on [ INSERT TOPIC HERE. ]

[He's right.]

What did Father give you [DARN IT I TYPED "US"] following your accomplishment?

A book on law.

...

That...is correct...and I finished that book in three days.

And read it over and over, but took care of it so that the pages never fell out and the spine was never damaged.

...in which Edgeworth may finally remember what happened to him in Johto

... best cure for amnesia. Meet your younger self.

Or the worst. XD They'll just bond together all over again.
