016 [video]

[miniworth]

[The feed turns on this fine Tuesday afternoon from a Gear that hasn't posted in quite a while. The camera adjusts, focuses, and then shows a disgruntled looking child sitting - legs crossed, leaning back in the chair, with a serious line face - at a table in what looks like the café at the Goldenrod Hotel. A newspaper held in one hand, the other holding....

.....a cup of tea. That he drinks out of.

Good afternoon, residents of Johto, Miles Edgeworth has woken up and he snuck out of the Pokémon Center last night, too, but that's another story.]

Plus!

[The sudden voice is accompanied by the invasion of Remus the Plusle, who hops onto his trainer's lap and takes the cup of tea from him, sitting down and cheerily gulping down the warm drink. His moody expression brightening slightly into that of amusement, Miles gives a soft chuckle and lowers the paper, turning his full attention to the Gear that Remus must have turned on earlier.

First, he sighs. And then he glares at the camera.]

Franziska von Karma.

[Oh boy, is he pissed.]

Upon my waking up just last night, I was informed of your ill-mannered conduct upon your arrival in Johto. You acted rudely and immaturely, and - surely - as one who aspires to succeed that perfect Manfred von Karma, being able to civilly interact with those you meet would be an important skill?

First of all, I have done nothing to be called a coward by you.

Secondly, yelling my name into the network was an over-the-top, yet sufficient way of getting in contact with me. However, I was indeed asleep for the last few days, and refusing to believe the tale when told so was foolish of you. Proceeding then to snap at these people and antagonizing them is even worse.

[A pause, as he takes a breath and rubs his temple.]

As your older brother, and the reason why you ended up acting so disrespectfully to those who simply wanted to help you, I suggest that you rethink your actions carefully and apologize to them soon. Your father stressed the importance of perfection in every aspect of life - and if you are still aspring to fulfill that perfection, it would do you good to start by acting, at least, like you know how to speak without angering every face you see.

[Another pause, and then he looks away from the camera looking a bit squicked out.]

... I don't think I'll ever perfect imitating Mr. von Karma's way of talking.

[He reaches over to drink the tea, but the cup must have been emptied by Remus. He stops, sighs, and sends the camera another look.]

I'll be waiting for your call, Fran. That is all.

... I hope you're doing all right.

[Well, this draws his attention. Probably because he's traveling with the girl in question.]

Oh, you're her brother?

[video]

[miniworth]

[Miles tilts his head questioningly at the unfamiliar face, but he nods at the question.]

Yes, I am her brother.

[bakaitoukid]

Ooooi, Miles!

[video | 2/3]

[bakaitoukid]

You--

[video | 3/3]

[bakaitoukid]

... almost sound like a hopeless cause. Where's that joke book I had lying around...

[action]

[usedrage.livejournal.com]

[COMPLETELY IGNORING EVERYTHING ELSE because I don't doubt they've talked a bit more since the log.]

I thought you didn't like tea?

[MEANWHILE drinking his black coffee :|b]

[action]

[miniworth]

[Miles probably dragged Ken to go eat something other than hospital food before they went back to the hotel. :|b ]

[At Ken's question, Miles looks down at his empty cup, then shrugs.]

I guess you get used to it when you had to drink it every day.

[Ciel looks vaguely amused as Miles chews out his baby sister. Having been on the receiving end of Franziska he believes the lecture is quite warranted and would have done the same thing in his position.]

I am glad to see that you are awake.

[video]

[miniworth]

[Miles could never rant as long as Franziska could, but he could try. He gives a polite smile when he sees Ciel.]

It feels nice to be back here as well. How have you been?

[smilegonnakillu.livejournal.com]

It's so lovely to have you back, Miles.

[miniworth]

--!

[He blinks, at first, surprised that she would address him. But he does offer her a bit of a smile-smirk.]

I hope you hadn't missed me too much, Miss Hawthorne.

[her-mouse-jesty.livejournal.com]

Miles! You're awake!

[miniworth]

Miss Minnie.

[He blinks at her. Oh man, it really had been a while since he last saw everyone (at least for him).]

How have you been?

[video]

[usedsubstitute.livejournal.com]

_{[Iris smiles.]} I'm so glad to see you awake Miles.

Oh! She's your...sister? I didn't realize you had a sister...

[video]

[miniworth]

Miss Iris. [A short nod is his greeting.]

I met her after I fell asleep.

[Video]

[foolishwren]

<sub>[Whoa wait what happened.]

[That voice sounds a little older than she remembers it.]

[And she definitely does NOT remember it speaking words like THAT. She's been sort of disconnected, apparently...]</sub>


.... Miles?

[Video]

[miniworth]

[Miles was still making attempts to imitate his great and almighty mentor's speech when Heather messages him. But the face the appears on the screen is that same tiny ten-year-old that fell asleep last Saturday. And hey, he's giving you a smile.]

Hello, Miss Heather.

[staryou.livejournal.com]

Shh!

[miniworth]

--- [What.]


...Yes?

[video] /headaches forever ;A;

[elevatorbro.livejournal.com]

It's a relief to see that you've woken up, Miles.

[video] Rub tiger balm on your forehead! ;A;

[miniworth]

[There's a nod, and a polite smile.]

It's good to see you, Mr. Theo.

[video]

[shocksandawes.livejournal.com]

[facepalm. so much facepalm.]

[video]

[miniworth]

.....Yes?

[itsthebutz.livejournal.com]

EDGEYYYY!

[video]

[itsthebutz.livejournal.com]

[And then it hits him that Miles now sounds very familiar to how he does in the future.]

... So how'd it go?

[1/???]

[recrimination.livejournal.com]

[For a lack of a better way to start this, she just happens to be checking her pokegear and is mentally laughing at all the fools and their meaningless little lives like a spoiled rich girl should etc. etc. moving on--]

[2/???]

[recrimination.livejournal.com]

[WHAT]

[madegrowth.livejournal.com]

I have heard vague reports of what has happened to you. It's good that you're feeling better. My name is Shiho. Nice to meet you. May I also offer my condolences. I know how it feels to have to deal with people who have rather obnoxious behavior.

[video]

[miniworth]

......

[He wasn't really expecting someone completely uninvolved to reply.


Then again, he had ranted quite a bit.]

...Thank you, Miss Shiho.

/spams forever

[reveiller]

[Chuckle.]

That sounds like an exciting thing to wake up to.

/I AM NOT INTELLIGENT ENOUGH FOR YOUR FRANZISKA /sob

[miniworth]

Exciting, you say.

[voice] A-AM I LATE

[shellderkillder.livejournal.com]

[Congratulations, Miles. You managed to make Shelly pause in astonishment for a second.]

... I am sorry to say that, now, you do sound much more like Miles Edgeworth, the Prosecutor.

[voice] NO YOU ARE NOT LATE AT ALL BB <3

[miniworth]

[The sound Shelly will first get from him is a groan.]

That means that the Prosecutor sounds like Manfred von Karma - great, just great.

[But then there's a weird chuckle.]

He's got an interesting vocabulary, at least.

[video; HELLO DID YOU MISS ME also 1/3 or something]

[cheapblusuits.livejournal.com]

[GDI MILES HE'S BEEN WORRIED. And thus, has been obsessively checking his Pokégear so he can keep up with the stats of your condition. While being attacked by small furry things with too much energy.

So when he sees this post, he grins and begins to reply;]

Hey, Mil--

[cheapblusuits.livejournal.com]

[...

.......

This manner of speech sounds eerily familiar.

Whatwhatwhat?!]

[video]

[bottletothehead.livejournal.com]

[ Kristoph notices the difference in Miles's behaviour, but decides not to pursue the matter right away. After all he has the part of the worried friend to play first. He shows a relieved smile to the camera. ]

Good to see that you're back on your feet, Miles. You had us all worried about you.

[video]

[miniworth]

[And it's answered by a smile from Miles' side, as well.]

It's good to be back as well. I'm sorry for the trouble I caused, Mr. Gavin.

[video]

[smudgedface.livejournal.com]

She's your sister?

[There's a long pause.]

Do I feel sorry for you.

[video]

[miniworth]

[Ron's comment is answered by a soft chuckle, as Miles raises an eyebrow and grins at the camera.]

She isn't that bad, you know.

[video] sorry for being so late! D:

[brightlilwitch.livejournal.com]

[She can't help but wonder about this sibling Miles went on so much about, but something else caught her attention.]

Miles? You seem...different.

[video] It's all cool, bb! <3

[miniworth]

Eh--

[Ahahaha..... he grimaces.]

I was just imitating somebody..
