010 [video] Fourth wall event!

[miniworth]

---Gotcha.

[So what's Edgeworth up to today? Well... he was catching Butch and Tadpole, who thought it would be a wonderful way to exercise if they stole Edgeworth's Pokégear and run all over Violet. And that's how they spent the day today! Pess, being a good girl, is off visiting Phoenix at the Pokémon Center.

And Edgeworth had just caught up to the two Pokémon. But wait. This isn't Violet anymore. The moment the Gear stops shaking like crazy, the camera manages to focus on..... the inside of an elevator?

Unfortunately, Edgeworth doesn't notice until the doors close behind him.]

......Huh?

....W-where am I...?

[Panic settling in three, two, one.....]

Oh god... [And the feed cuts off as Edgeworth drops his gear, suddenly feeling sick to his stomach.]

[[ooc; FFFFF I hate writer's block, especially those that hit at the best moments. =u= ;; But anyway, a shorter, less depressfail version of Edgeworth's fourth wall event, that I definitely like better. Action posts to people in the department store, on the fourth floor, which is where Edgeworth will THROW HIMSELF OUT OF THE ELEVATOR BECAUSE OH GOD TRAUMA, and video/audio/text responses will come about an hour later, once the kid calms down and feels better! c: Responses will be slow-- I'll probably be busy both Saturday and Sunday until the evening. =w= ;;

Butch used with permission from Phoenix Wright mun cheapblusuits! I think Phoenix is in possession of Pess and her egg for this weekend, as well. ]]

... [Oh boy. You're in for a disappointment, Smallworth.]

I... [He tried folding that perfect quarter-inch paper crane after 3-5 and after Larry brought up those origami memories, but failed miserably. But there was no reason to hide this from himself, was there?] Unfortunately...I have yet to fold a satisfactory crane myself.

... [And Tinyworth isn't one to recklessly share this information with anyone else.]

So Wright is truly from an earlier time...earlier than mine. [So Phoenix here doesn't know about that case...about Bigworth becoming a defense attorney...about Hazakura...

He'd probably remember Bigworth choosing death, at least.]

[miniworth]

.....Oh. [Boy, did the kid sound disappointed, indeed.] Larry's never going to stop teasing me about that, then, is he?

[.......]

I suppose so, if you know Miss Hawthorne.

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid not. He will bring it up again in the future - so I suggest you practice if you have the time. [Which Bigworth doesn't, admittedly.]

Yes. I met her...during my very first trial. Before Wright got roped into her schemes.

[miniworth]

I think I will! I have time, here, after all.

[The last statement catches him by surprise.]

Your first trial?

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

Yes. I was twenty years old, and Miss Hawthorne was our witness.

[And he'll stop there until you ask him for more details.]

[miniworth]

...Terry Fawles.

[...Going to guess Iris/Gumshoe told him about this because I don't even remember.]

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

You know of his case? [WHY DID THEIR CONVERSATION BECOME SAD AGAIN. Bigworth...well, we all know why he doesn't exactly like discussing this case in detail. Looking back, he wonders if Terry could have been saved. Alas, back then he was not as concerned with the truth...]

[miniworth]

I've heard about it after coming here.

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

...

Then...you know how it ended?

[miniworth]

The same way Wright was supposed to end, back in college.

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

Correct.

[Sadface of regret is a go. It could have been stopped...]

[miniworth]

.....

There are a lot of people, aren't there, that we could have saved, yet didn't.

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

...

[He just nods sadly.]

[miniworth]

I--

I want to change that.

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

As do I, but unfortunately, I can no longer travel back in time to right the mistakes I have made.

You, on the other hand...

[miniworth]

I can't promise anything. But I'm not going to sit back and allow the future to play out in such a way when I feel so terrible about it.

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

Contrary to what most people believe, we are more than capable of changing our futures. [We ARE talking about the guy who claimed that the magatama's powers were utter nonsense until SUDDENLY PSYCHOLOCKS.]

[miniworth]

.....The supernatural and superstition aren't things I believe in.

Fate.. the dead, spirits. I don't believe it.

[Unfortunately, nobody explained this thing to him.]

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

[Looks like we're going to end up discussing psycholocks soon, Tinyworth...]

Neither do I; science and logic provide ample explanations for any phenomenon we encounter. Although... [He pauses, recalling using the magatama...basically that case back at Hazakura in general.]

[miniworth]

-- It exists, for others. After spending a couple months here, there's no way I can deny that. The fact that I'm here at all should be enough proof.

But.... for our world...

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

Yes. Magic is rampant in the world I was brought to, and I was also given a power of my own.

...but our world is...different.

[miniworth]

Do you think it's real? That spirit channeling.

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

...Spirit channeling...

I was involved in a case related to the ritual not too long ago by my time. People who once doubted its power who witnessed the final day of the trial...eventually believed.

[miniworth]

---!

It's... real?

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

It was a very intricate case...tied to DL-6.

I still choose the power of logic over any supernatural belief, but...once all impossible options were eliminated in our investigation and the trial, what remained had to be the truth.
