[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.]

[......She's getting rambly, which is sapping a lot of her energy; so she trails off there, thankfully for Edgeworth, until--]

Is she a friend of yours too, sir?
journaler: (✿ last night)

[personal profile] journaler 2015-04-10 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
[She joins him, dipping her feet in as if to test the temperature. Predictably, it feels cold, but beyond an initial shiver running up her spine, it doesn't seem to bother her much.]

A later point in time, huh...? Like a friend from the future.

[Friend, acquaintance--it's all the same to her. She knows Ludger and Elle are from her past... so it's not totally strange that things could happen the other way, too.]

That must be interesting.

[Leia is quiet at that, not entirely sure what he means; but it sure gets her thinking. Finally, with sympathy (and it sounds like she's speaking from experience):]

It's probably a little weird for her, too.

[Go easy on her, Edgeworth.]
journaler: (✿ i had this dream about you)

[personal profile] journaler 2015-04-22 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
[Leia nods. It'd be like seeing a cry-baby Jude again or something. Or Alvin, back when...

......]


But she bounces back so quickly, she's probably used to it already.

[They're alike in that regard, her and Leia. She won't dwell on the past anymore.]

[personal profile] journaler 2015-05-03 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
[That's putting it mildly.

On that note, though, Leia does wonder. She'd have so many questions for someone from her future.]


And you haven't thought to ask her about your future self?
journaler: (✿ hmpth)

[personal profile] journaler 2015-05-06 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... but that's not the same as truly knowing about him.

[She looks thoughtful at this--though it's hardly her place to butt in here. She realizes this even more quickly than she normally does, given Edgeworth's firm answers.]

I guess some things are best left for you to find out.
journaler: (✿ but...)

[personal profile] journaler 2015-05-07 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
[Leia gives a nod in return, and leaves it at that for now. He isn't the chattiest of adults, she realizes... not like Rowen, but her first impression of him tells her he's probably just as wise.

The silence is pretty comfortable, but Leia breaks it as she peers over the pool he'd just crawled out of.]


Are you leaving already?
journaler: (✿ hands on my hips)

[personal profile] journaler 2015-05-09 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I will.

[If he were to ask, she wouldn't say he was keeping her at all. She was the one who stopped him, if anything.

She half-turns though, and it looks like she's about to dip in when she glances back towards Edgeworth again.]


Race me sometime, okay? [For fun.]

[It's not a firm "no," and that's the best she can really hope for. She'll take that and drop into the water, kicking off from the wall immediately as she kicks her feet and bullets to the other side.

She has no idea whether Edgeworth's watching or not, but she certainly tries her hardest. One might wonder if she'd ever learned to pace herself... but she resurfaces like it's nothing when she reaches the other side.

She clings to its wall and uses the moment to catch her breath, before turning--and in another instant, she'll be jetting back like a torpedo from the direction she came.]
journaler: (✿ shoulder glance)

[personal profile] journaler 2015-05-17 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[After three or so laps (she should be keeping better count, honestly), she stops and hangs on the wall where she began. Going her top speed and all, she's notably breathless, but she doesn't look ready to stop.

She actually feels more awake than before.]


Whew. I'm sure glad this pool is heated...

You must be freezing.

[She can feel the chill on her face--and her neck, and her shoulders. A total contrast to the water.]

[Leia watches him when she realizes he's joining her. The pool is actually deep enough that she's kicking her feet, and the water comes up to just below her nose. She lifts her head up to respond, of course, when he introduces himself.]

Oh yeah! I'm Leia Rolando.

[She forgot, too.]

It's nice to meet you, Mr. Edgeworth.

I never got to ask, but is a morning swim part of your routine?
