[Edgeworth's Hotel Room]

[milesperglower]

[Here's an anything-goes post for anyone who may wish to interact with Edgeworth in any way at any time. All is welcome under the premise that Edgeworth is either entering or vacating his hotel room. Or just walk right in if you want to be an ass about it. Either way, here is where anyone from anywhere, regardless of game or dressing room, can take advantage of the opportunity to harass a random Edgeworth whenever they see fit.]

You may repay me as you see fit. After all, that trip alone was worth a handful of your case victories.

[He'll chalk it up to being shut in a hotel room alone with Edgeworth that money wasn't what popped into his mind right away at the suggestion of repayment. Sigh.]

You know I'm not made of cash like you are. Anyway, you wouldn't have done that if you didn't want to. I know you well enough to know that.

[3tieredcravat.livejournal.com]

[Oh, Wright. Can't you tell by the chronically solemn expression on my face that I was joking?]

I did not actually expect you to repay me in cash.

...Don't misjudge my character, Wright. For you I would have done it, and I did.

[Isn't that always the way? First he delivers a solid blow and then he says something almost sweet and that's...


What's so confusing.]

M-maybe it's a good thing I wasn't as bad off as Larry apparently told you I was... huh?

[3tieredcravat.livejournal.com]

...No, otherwise I would have had good reason to charter a jet.

[WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME EDGEWORTH]

That... doesn't...



...okay! So, if you're busy, I'll just buzz off or something.

[3tieredcravat.livejournal.com]

[Aren't you used to me by now?]


You know very well that there is nothing to occupy my time here...Did you wish to discuss something?

[lawfulwright.livejournal.com]

Not really? I guess I just kind of wanted to come and, you know.

See you?

[3tieredcravat.livejournal.com]

...Is that so?


Just then it seemed as though you were inclined to run away from me as quickly as possible.

[lawfulwright.livejournal.com]

[He takes a deep breath. So Edgeworth is heading him off at every turn of the conversation? Big surprise....]

Well, Edgeworth, I can't exactly say you make conversations all that easy, but that doesn't mean I want to run away.

[On the contrary, really]

[3tieredcravat.livejournal.com]

...I am aware of that.

...My apologies.

[lawfulwright.livejournal.com]

[WAY TO GO PHOENIX now you've upset him nice job breaking it hero]

No, no, I didn't mean... just... okay, look. I'm just here to talk to you because I like talking to you. I wouldn't have tracked down your hotel room if not for that.





And I enjoy your company, anyway.

[3tieredcravat.livejournal.com]

[This is me. Genuinely confused.]








...Why?

[lawfulwright.livejournal.com]

Because!

[Because you're wonderful?]

Because you're a nice guy. And I consider you a... a friend.

[3tieredcravat.livejournal.com]

...Hm. I've never imagined myself to be the most enthralling of company.

[lawfulwright.livejournal.com]

You just don't know how other people see you. Trust me. Just because spending time with you takes a little more effort than it does with other people doesn't mean it's not worth it...

[Have what he hopes is a winning grin.]

[3tieredcravat.livejournal.com]

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

[lawfulwright.livejournal.com]

[He'll just keep grinning as long as Edgeworth keeps up that stony silence.]

[3tieredcravat.livejournal.com]

[...Oh, now you've done it.

...Great was his attempt, but he found himself unable to hold it back any longer. Not too long afterwards, Edgeworth's lips slowly curl into an eventual, magnanimous smile. It is broad, warm, appreciative, slightly timorous...but all in all, it is a much bigger smile than even he, himself, is used to.

...Edgeworth is smiling. Way to go and fuck you, Phoenix Wright.]

[lawfulwright.livejournal.com]

[WELL. Now Phoenix isn't sure whether to pass out or keep going on about how wonderful Edgeworth is or what. At all. And that smile is slowly turning him into mush, no less.

What to do!!]

Oh, there--that's not so bad, is it? You should try it more often! You have a nice smile.

[3tieredcravat.livejournal.com]

[Really, really wants to stop. But can't. So here he is, shielding his lips with two fingers as the smile commences, as if in attempt to stifle it.]


...Hn... An odd topic of conversation amongst men, don't you agree?

[lawfulwright.livejournal.com]

Is it?

[He opts for playing innocent on this one.]

I don't know. If it's true, does it really matter if I say it, regardless?

[3tieredcravat.livejournal.com]

...You just may wish to refrain from giving off the wrong impression to others.

[lawfulwright.livejournal.com]

I dont know--I think I'm pretty capable of understanding what I sound like when I say things.

[3tieredcravat.livejournal.com]

...Not that I am concerned with how you wish to present yourself, just as long as I am not also entangled in any sort of crude misconceptions...any more than I already tend to be...


[And suddenly. Wine. A chilled bottle of one of his favourite kinds appears just as he thought of it. Perhaps this place is not so bad, after all. He takes a moment of silently eyeing the bottle until he retrieves it and says,]

Would you care for a glass?
