Oct. 4th, 2010 04:18 am [The screen flickers on to show a sunny blue sky framed by the branches of trees. On occasion a bird or two or a flock of them fly past, but there is no sign of the boy who owns the Pokégear. In the corner of the screen, something orange flits in and out of view before there is the sound of panting and bounding feet, followed by--]
Ugh. [--the sound of someone groaning, as if something heavy had been dropped on his stomach. The screen turns blurry, as if the Pokégear was being shaken around. The sound of struggling and excited barks could be heard.] Stop, you silly dog, stop, you can't use this-- this contraption as a toy! .....No, you can't chew on my bowtie either but-- ugh, fine you can lick my face. [There is a soft sigh as the screen stops moving. It moves again as the happy-looking face of a young Growlithe comes into view, then, finally the camera swerves again to show the slightly disgruntled, slobber-covered face of a young boy lying on the grass. So that's where he was!]
.....My name is Miles Edgeworth. [The boy seems absolutely squicked out - apparently he's never talked to electronics before. The Growlithe, on the other hand, looks nothing less than deliriously happy as it sits by the boy's head and smiles up at the camera.] I woke up... this morning and found myself in a house that wasn't mine, with a woman that wasn't my mother -- and then I got kicked out. I'm not sure how this happened, or what will happen from now on, but... [Miles averts his eyes momentarily, then turns his head as if staring at the sky and the trees, glancing at the Growlithe before turning back to the camera.] I think the best choice I could make now is to keep moving along down the road. Perhaps I'll meet someone who can give me some hints on.. what's going on. -- ugh. Stop that! [There is a beep, as if Miles had pressed a button, and the screen goes blank, but not before it catches the Growlithe finding a small butterfly on Miles' shirt and pouncing at it.]

Date: 2010-10-05 12:13 am (UTC)WHAT]
Edgeworth?!
[video; 3/4 I think]
Date: 2010-10-05 12:14 am (UTC)[video; 4/4]
Date: 2010-10-05 12:15 am (UTC)[And then the penny drops.]
--oh, man.

Date: 2010-10-05 12:28 am (UTC)Welcome to Johto-- [...Oh, that's a kid. Younger than she was!] --... Miles. That dog looks like it likes you, so it must be your partner for your adventure! [Yes yes, Flora is totally on board with this whole 'adventure' thing, despite how she knows the others she's talked to feel about it.]
You should definitely start walking down that path, because it'll take you to another town and you can meet more Pokémon like the one you have right now!
My name is Flora Reinhold, it's a pleasure to meet you!
Re: [video; 4/4]
Date: 2010-10-05 12:32 am (UTC)O-Oh you can talk to people on this thing... um. How do you know me, Mr...?
[Something seems to dawn on him, but he still looks rather confused. He seems to have not understood half of what Phoenix said.]
You don't happen to know a Phoenix Wright, do you?
(no subject)
Date: 2010-10-05 12:36 am (UTC)Erm. Thank you, Miss. [He shrugs a bit.] I'm -- well, you know my name. Thank you for your kindness.
[video]
Date: 2010-10-05 12:38 am (UTC)oh, man.]
No, no, I am Phoenix. I'm just...a lot older. Er, how do I explain this...
Edgewo--[He pauses, realizing that this Edgeworth is. Really tiny. Short. A kid.] -- Miles. [...that didn't make it seem any less weird, though.] In this place -- Johto -- it's possible for people to travel here from...different times.
I'm from your future.

Date: 2010-10-05 12:40 am (UTC)Mr. Edgeworth!! You shrunk!
And you're really cute!!!

Date: 2010-10-05 12:45 am (UTC)You should check your bag, I think there's a change of clothes and a book or two that'll help you!
Re: [video]
Date: 2010-10-05 12:54 am (UTC)So. You're... Wright. That Wright?
......[He seems to consider this new piece of information, but whether it actually is getting through to him is a mystery, as his expression is that of utter shock more than anything else.]
(no subject)
Date: 2010-10-05 01:06 am (UTC)[The Pokégear comes dangerously close to being knocked out of Miles' hand as his Growlithe pounces on his shoulder and into the screen, a piece of cloth that looks eerily like Miles' "change of clothes". Apparently it is now a chew toy.
Miles sighs and gestures towards the clothes.]
Re: [video]
Date: 2010-10-05 01:08 am (UTC)I did not shrink! [He looks quite angry.]
....
Nor am I cute!

Date: 2010-10-05 01:36 am (UTC)E-exciting? [He stares at the screen with an air of dubiousness and utter... disbelief.]
Re: [text] 1/2
Date: 2010-10-05 01:38 am (UTC)Exciting, huh. Yes, yes you may be right. [He continues to stare at the screen thoughtfully! He's really just trying to get his head around the whole situation, so his 'calm' aura is just a delayed reaction.]

Date: 2010-10-05 02:03 am (UTC)[He finds this strange of course. Why would this girl know how tall she is compared to him, other than the glaringly obvious fact that she's older than him..]
I don't recall ever meeting you, though. H-have we?
[video]
Date: 2010-10-05 02:15 am (UTC)If you're this small, I guess we haven't yet. But at some point in your future, you meet me when I'm about the age you are now.
So, Older You meets Younger Me! Pretty cool, huh?

Date: 2010-10-05 02:20 am (UTC)It sounds extremely far-fetched, but there's no logic or evidence to overthrow your theory, huh. Miss, uh... --
[Awwww snap. Great going Miles, way to be a gentleman and not ask the girl her name.]
May I ask for your name?
[video]
Date: 2010-10-05 02:21 am (UTC). . . Are you all right there?
(no subject)
Date: 2010-10-05 02:23 am (UTC)........Well. Then.
......
Er. Hello. Your name is..?
