....Wright.
[The video turns on and shows that the boy is standing in a hotel room. The lights are on, and... it looks like the room was in use until just recently. The camera - held in trembling hands - captures the sulking figures of three Pokémon sitting on the messily made bed.]
---Wright.... he's gone.
[[ooc; -- With permission from our dear Gumshoe-mun, who dropped (SOB), Miles will be taking care of Missile from now on... but Gummy also had two other characters and y'all should ask Officer so the poor babes can have homes. ;A; ]

[action; I wanted to get an answer by this week, but mom told me stfu, basically, so. ;; ]
Date: 2010-12-14 04:21 am (UTC)[ "I didn't ever want to see you" would have been the honest answer, but he stops himself from saying it. That was the truth when he moved, but that definitely wasn't the truth now... it wouldn't do either of them good for him to say it.]
[action; I see. D: Bug her again next week and see what she says, I guess. ]
Date: 2010-12-14 04:29 am (UTC)Really, Edgeworth. It's alright. Sure, for a while, I...I was actually pretty mad at you. [He chuckles, rubbing the back of his head.] When you never replied to my letters...I figured you either didn't get them, or you really didn't want to talk to me.
Either way, I was mad. But I didn't stop writing, and I didn't stop trying to find you. I mean... [When he smiles this time, it's genuine, still with that hint of nostalgia.] After all, I did find you again. It took me fifteen years, but...
[action; She says this about almost everything I do, recently. D: ]
Date: 2010-12-14 04:35 am (UTC)...Letters? [He vaguely remembered the familiar scrawl of his old classmate on those envelopes, but he.. couldn't remember ever having the time to open them. They'd moved right after the DL-6 trial, and after that - planning his father's funeral, keeping his mother eating, answering calls from distant relatives and trying to get used to his new school...] ...I'm sorry. I-- I haven't read them. I didn't mean to ignore them..
[action]
Date: 2010-12-14 04:44 am (UTC)[Again, he waves a hand.] I figured. You didn't even remember getting any when I asked you about them in my time.
[action]
Date: 2010-12-14 04:49 am (UTC)[He makes a mental note to read them when he gets home.]
....Did you really write to me for fifteen years, Phoenix..?
[No, he did not notice the slip-up.]
[action; WHOOP ICON FAIL]
Date: 2010-12-14 04:57 am (UTC)[Have fun with that -- Phoenix couldn't keep a straight conversation when he was a kid, and he's no different in his rambling letters. He always remembered to tack on a "write back soon" at the end, though.
Phoenix DOES notice the slip up -- but he doesn't comment on it, chalking the sudden use of his first name to be because of the emotional stress.
...that doesn't stop him from feeling a little warm inside, though. Oh Phoenix, why so sentimental.]
Uh... [And now, he sounds sort of embarassed, complete with sheepish grin.] More or less. Not every day -- I didn't have the attention span for it -- but at least once, maybe twice a month.
[action; GOOD THING I REFRESHED/ at least it matched your ooc ]
Date: 2010-12-14 05:01 am (UTC)....I guess that's understandable. [He fiddles with his sleeve, thinking about those envelopes that his mother let him put in a box, so that neither would accidentally throw them away...]
[action; speaking of icons -- using this one while talking to littleworth bothers me just a bit]
Date: 2010-12-14 05:07 am (UTC)I guess. [He rubs the back of his neck and glances away, looking nostalgic again.] I never really thought it was something to make a big deal over, but Larry would always call me out on it. I don't think he meant it, really...
[action; ...knowing the artist, just a bit.]
Date: 2010-12-14 05:09 am (UTC)--Normal people wouldn't send letters for fifteen years to someone who basically threw them out of his life, no...
[action; oh Otapyon, whyfor you give him iconable expressions.]
Date: 2010-12-14 12:52 pm (UTC)[At that, he chuckles.] Well, maybe. I was just doing what I thought was right, though. You were my best friend -- I couldn't just let you drop of the face of the earth without at least trying to find you.
[action; ...teach me how to sleep gdmit I hate this /facepalm ]
Date: 2010-12-14 12:56 pm (UTC)......Why would you go so far for someone like me.
[action; D: /pats.]
Date: 2010-12-14 12:58 pm (UTC)...didn't I just say it? [A smile.] You were my best friend.
You still are.
[action; I'm sleeping on you at the library D: ]
Date: 2010-12-14 01:03 pm (UTC).....But I left. [Phoenix's smile.. isn't making him feel any better. In fact, it makes him feel worse -- it would have been easier if the man was angry at him instead..] I left without a single word of explanation - I told myself I would never see you again - and you still.. you still..
[action; Yes, sir! ]
Date: 2010-12-14 01:13 pm (UTC)Yeah...you, uh, weren't too happy to see me when I did finally run into you again. [A sheepish quirk of a grin.]
...I guess I'm just stubborn.
[action ]
Date: 2010-12-14 01:17 pm (UTC)Stubborn might be an understatement. [He looks up again, looking like he'll start crying again -- which he usually does, but.. more so than the usual, now.]
[action]
Date: 2010-12-14 01:33 pm (UTC)oh also YAY I RESEVED AT SOUL CAMPAIGN now to look at this app and see what I've got to do...screw what I said last night I want in before the February cycle]
[OH SNAP, he did not mean to make Edgeworth cry again! He mentally flails a bit, the hand that was earlier resting on Edgeworth's shoulder creeping up again. Phoenix is not good with these situations, okay. It shows on his face.]
H-hey, it's alright. It was my choice, after all.
[action]
Date: 2010-12-14 01:43 pm (UTC)Also Luther Pendragon is the meanest man EVER. Worse than Manfred D: ]
[...Fortunately or unfortunately for you, Phoenix, Edgeworth isn't really watching you. He's only looking ahead at the wall across from him, trying to keep himself calm.]
[action]
Date: 2010-12-14 11:00 pm (UTC)...FFFFF. Really? That is. Horrible.]
[Well, there's an abrupt end to that conversation. He's giving Miles a worried look, hand still on the boy's shoulder.]
...will you be alright?
[action]
Date: 2010-12-15 02:25 am (UTC)[A beat.]
I have to be.
[action]
Date: 2010-12-15 02:39 am (UTC)...don't feel as if you have to go through this all by yourself.
[action]
Date: 2010-12-15 02:45 am (UTC)......But I have to be strong, for Missile.
[action]
Date: 2010-12-15 02:55 am (UTC)It's then that Phoenix notices the poor Smeargle. That's right, all of Gumshoe's Pokémon--]
...poor guys. [He holds out a hand to the dog, smiling encouragingly.]
[action]
Date: 2010-12-15 03:09 am (UTC)[Missile is currently snoozing with her head on Edgeworth's lap, so Phoenix doesn't get much of a response out of her.]
