[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.]

...point taken.
The one I gave you is lighter and may be less unwieldy.
...Not to mention less likely to strike passersby.
They just arrive precisely when they mean to...
Oh...I see now.
[She takes another swing, mindful of her surroundings, and this one is much better. Still untrained but...better.]
That is definitely an improvement. Sorry...if I disturbed you or anything.
Like right now.
Not at all. I was just browsing. [And decided to protect the stuff he's browsing. And Rei.]
Sorry for slow...
Well, all the same. Thank you. [A beat.] I take it you're an accomplished swordsman, then?
It's okay, I'm a very slow tagger
I know many who are more accomplished than I am. I learned what I know from them.
Fair
Do you have any advice, for a beginner? If you know him, Abe-san has offered to teach me, and I'm planning to take him up on the offer. But not making a fool of myself at first would be nice.
And I mean REALLY SLOW
[Wasn't that the point of learning? To find something new, and then to become progressively better at it? The real fool was someone who wouldn't try, who wouldn't progress, who would throw in the towel so early on in the fight.
Edgeworth thinks Sousei is more qualified, but then again, he could afford to give her some advice from the experience he had as a beginner. At the very least, Edgeworth likes to think he has moved past that.]
As for advice...keep practicing. Practice everything Sousei teaches you, over and over.
You're already better than many! You replied more than once a week!
And that meant learning what new teachers expected.]
Of course. Good advice, and I appreciate it. [A beat, as she realizes she's forgotten something important.] Oh, and my name is Rei. Rei Hino.
And this is where I get slow ahaha alksjdfsladf
[He punctuates this by giving her a sweeping bow.]
Perfectly alright.
A pleasure, Edgeworth-san. Have you been a resident of this...colony...for long?
no subject
[His tone is even, but the words speak for themselves.]
