[OPEN] It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...
Who: The lesser frilly grumpy evil (prosecutory) and YOU!
When: IC: 03/28-04/04; OOC: Dec. 12-15.
Where: Everywhere, locations under the cut.
What: Miles Edgeworth looking at things and maintaining his buff bod. Choose your own adventure.
Rating/Warning: Nada.
[OPTION A: CERES TECH & AUTO SHOP
Even a stick in the mud like Edgeworth has needs - and quite a few interests, and some things he missed from home. One of the worst features of this colony, as far as he is concerned, is the sore lack of animal companionship. Unless your pets tagged along with you when you were brought here, you either had to be content with a CYbuddy or nothing. While he missed his dog all the way back in his home world and the two dogs he and Genesis owned back in Death City, it was probably for the best that none of them would be brought here and experience the crazy life he has.
Since he much prefers an actual dog, he isn't going to get a CYbuddy. It just wasn't the same having a robot running at your heels and doing time as a search engine.
That won't stop Edgeworth from passing by to look at the CYbuddies available, though. They sure came in a variety of sizes and shapes - or rather, breeds, if one was so inclined to consider them "breeds" instead of "models" or whatever. Seeing a border collie CYbuddy is making him nostalgic...excuse him while he lingers a bit longer at the dogs...]
[OPTION B: ALSO AT CERES TECH & AUTO SHOP
He does have a much better reason to be at this shop than peering at CYbuddies and telling himself over and over that they won't be the same as real pets. Edgeworth needs a better way to get around the colony quickly, so he is looking at motorcycles. Yes, one of the things he learned from CRAUtown was how to drive a motorcycle because Death City was too cramped for cars.
Most likely he is looking at red models that are good for sidecars. Intently, one might add. This is serious business. Either he gets one now, or continues to save up enough credits for something bigger. Admittedly, he misses driving a real car. At least he had some of that when he was briefly returned home a.k.a. had a canon update.]
[OPTION C: CERES GYMNASIUM; morning
Edgeworth hangs out here every morning to train and spar with people. When he's here, he is NOT wearing his complete suit at all, but instead changes into a long-sleeved, collared white shirt - although the burgundy trousers are still there. He exercises and works on what he knows in the realm of martial arts - which is just enough to give him something to use when he's drawn into a fight, certainly not enough to win any awards - and can be seen using this gorgeous blade when it's time to work on his sword skills. They're not that impressive, really, but they're something, since they've kept him alive so many times.
Feel free to bug him; he doesn't mind gathering up more sparring partners and teachers. You may catch him in the middle of a session or just as he's wrapping up and getting ready to haul his butt to work.
BONUS: If you're here REALLY early, between 6 and 7 AM, you might catch him swimming laps in the pool. Dem abs. I'M SORRY MOVING ON - ]
[OPTION D: SHOPPING DISTRICT
One side effect to learning how to use a sword is the sword nerdery that comes with it. Occasionally, Edgeworth stops by weapon shops to look at the display of swords with a careful eye, his own sword carried in a scabbard strapped to his belt. While he likes his trusty saber enough, there may come a time when he'll consider picking up a spare blade.
IT HONESTLY SOMETIMES MAKES HIM FEEL LIKE THE STEEL SAMURAI.
This is the sword nerdery option, you have been warned.]
[OPTION E: WILD CARD!
IDK. Auste you have too many options.]

Do you think you're ready to put people in a chokehold, Mr. Edgeworth?
no subject
A...a chokehold? Er... [He's sure he can defend himself without having to do THAT...]
no subject
Oh! I guess not...
no subject
Edgeworth blinks, and glances away briefly with a slightly awkward expression.]
I...prefer less painful ways to disarm and immobilize my opponents.
no subject
[ She starts poking at her moon earring while she thinks. Truth be told, she was rather looking forward to trying to put Edgeworth in a chokehold. ]
But, okay. What about joint locking?
no subject
Hmm, I don't believe learning about that. [It sounds better than a chokehold, at least. So okay, sensei. Let's do this.]
no subject
[ She jumps as she claps her hands, before hitting her palm with a fist. ]
Joint locking is when you render someone useless by bending someone's joints the opposite way. If the other person is holding a weapon, you could easily disarm them by locking their joints, and once you let go, they'll become weak for a while so you can gain the advantage.
I'll try not to hurt you if I demonstrate, but... [ She walks over to the side to grab a pen, and hands it to Edgeworth. ] Pretend you're charging at me with this pen.
I'll try to disarm you by locking your wrist.
no subject
He's gotten hurt in demonstrations before. All those demonstrations turned out to be very good for his health. And abs. So, he takes the proffered pen and nods, before suddenly jabbing straight toward her with the pen.]
no subject
no subject
[Edgeworth gasps; she is a lot stronger than he thought she was, even knowing that she has flipped a robot over. He drops the pen.
Well, he has DEFINITELY never tried this way of disarming a person before.]
no subject
[ What???
But hey, now that he's completely disarmed, she lets him go. ]
Normally, you'd follow up with a flip there. You wouldn't want the assailant to counter right away, after all.
no subject
[He lets out a breath of relief when Athena lets him go, flexing his fingers before bending down to pick up the pen.]
I...admittedly haven't had many opportunities to flip anyone. [He's satisfied with tossing people over his hip and using his brain to intercept any counterattacks.]
no subject
[ Just like last time...!
And she might have a soft spot for robots, having grown up with them, but that doesn't excuse poor behaviour. She'll promote dismantling them if it's absolutely needed. Well... dismantling, beating them up, and other forms of violence, really. ]
no subject
[He shakes his head. Those security droids with the katanas were approached as a swordsman to a rival swordsman. And the robots never bothered him in general. Probably because he doesn't stay out past curfew.]
