016 [video]

[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.

[She's actually already a little suspicious. She remembers that conversation they'd had-- and though she still doesn't know the exact nature of those comas, they usually seem to go along with ... weirdness.]

[And he's being kind of evasive.]


... Right...

[She could come off as an airhead sometimes, but underneath the dumb blond thing was a surprisingly-perceptive individual.]

[Alessa had been psychic during her life, after all.]


Wait... I'm confused. Sister?

[Had he mentioned a sister before? She couldn't even remember...]

[Also she missed out on Franziska's epic calling-out of Edgeworth because her player is a derp and fell off the wagon for awhile.]

[I-I think I am. ;-; We'll see!]

Oh-- ... wait a second.

Von Karma?

[She remembered THAT name...]

... So you had to go live with him, then.

I see...

... So... did you remember anything when you went back?

...

[She... doesn't even know what to think about that. No little kid should ever have to go through something like that.]

... Hey.

Wanna go grab some lunch or a hot chocolate or something? It's on me.
foolishwren: what doesn't kill you gives you a lot of unhealthy coping mechanisms and a really dark sense of humor (well you know what they say...)

[Obviously she doesn't know about the fight. But god dammit she wants to get the kid some hot chocolate and a muffin or something. Even if it just meant going to the cafe down the street-- or heck, even hiding in the kitchen somewhere.]

I'll be right down.

[You poor child.]

[HANG IN THERE KIDDO, BIG SIS HEATHER IS GONNA FIND YOU SOME HOT CHOCOLATE.]

[She comes hurrying down the stairs a couple minutes later, tugging her coat on-- although the worsening weather outside makes her leery.]


Heyyy.
foolishwren: are waiting to GOOF OFF with you (SILLY GIRLS in YOUR AREA)

[Likewise, Cujo is gamboling around Heather's legs, although even though he's gotten surprisingly massive for a Growlithe over the months, he probably can't give off nearly as much heat as an Arcanine.]

You don't need to call me 'Miss', man.

Makes me feel old.

Just Heather, okay?

[OH GOD CUJO IS NOW A WRIGGLING BALL OF HAPPINESS AND HE IS ROLLING AROUND ON PESS'S FEET HI HIIIIII BIGGER ME.]

[Heather grins toothily and nods in approval of the correction.]


There ya go.

Anyway... you wanna brave the weather or just stick around here?

I'm not a huge fan of the hotel food but it might be easier to get and stuff.

[If it was just her, she'd say 'SCREW IT' and go out, but she figures she should ask him first. The trip's for his benefit after all.]
