[OPEN] It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

Who: The lesser frilly grumpy evil ([personal profile] 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.]

[ Yeah, can't disagree with that. In fact, Heung Soo just nods a little at it - he doesn't doubt that something shitty is going to happen again in the future. It's been pretty consistent for all the time they've been here in this place now, after all.

But people don't seem to notice that. And it sort of unsettles him, but he hasn't really had anyone to talk to about it other than Nam Soon.. but Edgeworth is a Responsible Adult and gets this problem, so-- ]


A lot of people don't seem to think that way. [ --he tries mentioning it out loud. ]
unathletic: (your soul was too defective)

[personal profile] unathletic 2015-04-25 12:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Why?

[ See, now he's been chosen as the resident Responsible Adult, Heung Soo trusts him and what he's saying at least enough to try and get some insight in that sort of thinking, considering Edgeworth seems to get it a little more than him. ]

Do they think it's just going to get better?
unathletic: (requires a strength i can't use)

[ There's a small part of it that's understandable. It's not like it's ever been proven that CERES intentionally caused any of the things that happened to them, but.. come on, how can you stay in a place like this and not see the coincidences and accidents pile up until you get a little suspicious? ]

CERES never helped us. [ Sure, they apologized, but that always felt like such a lame afterthought more than anything else.. Heung Soo has seen a lot of lame afterthoughts, he knows how this stuff works. ] Trusting those people seems like a bad idea.
unathletic: (you only beat me)

[personal profile] unathletic 2015-05-06 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah.

[ But it's said with a "but it's still stupid" kind of tone.. it's just not easy for him to accept it, okay. Especially since he can only imagine how many people are going to get themselves hurt or worse in this kind of situation.

It's not easy being Mom Soo... ]


.. guess I should leave you to sword shopping.

[ How kind, Edgeworth, giving him so many opportunities to over here to ollie out if he must.. you truly understand the less socially gifted.

So Heung Soo just nods a little. ]


Hm.. I should get going. [ Or he'll never be home in time after finishing his work, and then he'll have an angry bastard boyfriend waiting for him.

But at least Edgeworth does get some traces of attempting to be polite from him. ]
Goodbye.
