Should Oldbag Acquaintence Be Forgot

Who: The Ace Attorney cast, any of their CR, and maybe gate-crashers?! Curious neighbors and other passersby won't be turned away.
When: January 1st
Where: The Wright apartment.
What: It's never too late for a new years party, except when it is.
Rating/Warning: Nothing out there just yet

[A new years party had been in the works for a while now. But the incidents with the Santa attacks plus time suddenly skipping ahead to January 1st had caught everyone off-guard. But Phoenix was convinced to go ahead with the party anyway. It's one way to help keep spirits high after what had happened the night before.

Invitations were dispersed amongst the group of people from their world (except for a certain elderly murderer, sorry Von Karma) and the friends they've made in Cerealia (and everyone is open to invite other people as well). Everything's happening at Phoenix and Trucy's apartment, which has some simple New Years banners set up alongside some surviving Christmas decorations. The Christmas tree is still up too, just in case... but all of the decorations and ornaments featuring Santa and his reindeer have already been destroyed.

Entertainment includes a karaoke machine which plays music normally when people aren't using it, and an assortment of food is set up, with people being free to have brought their own dishes and snacks. There is some alcohol there too, including the customary champagne, but likely the local adults will be trying to keep things down to small champagne samples; Phoenix prefers to respect his original world's drinking age, after all.

And, as they near midnight, the intention is to try to countdown to January 2nd as if it's the new year countdown!]

Hmph... Of course not. Taka dislikes the noise.

[Aaaand... slice! He lops the cracker in half. There's no rescuing the paper hat, but somehow everything else inside is undamaged.]

[ She looks at the paper hat falling into the ground, but her half seems to be relatively untouched. Inside was a pack of cards and the joke... which was still whole. Aura fishes it out, and reads with a deadpan voice - ]

What do you get if you eat Christmas decorations?

shacklebreaker: if you have one lololo (use ur brain)

[He grins in anticipation. Some jokes are just so bad they go straight back around to being funny again.]

Many regrets and a stomachache, I would imagine.

Tinsilitis.

[ There's a few seconds of Aura looking at the paper, before she tears it up into little bits. ]

Happy new year.
shacklebreaker: either that or making a weeb joke (schadenfreude)

[Simon snickers, to annoy Aura as much as anything. durr hurr good one!!1]

I hope not all the jokes you tell in this new year will be that horrible.

[ Sigh. She just sighs. What a treat you are to deal with, little brother. ]

Did you happen to receive any good Christmas presents? I bought my own, as usual so I was happy with it.

[That question makes the laughter drop from his face. Christmas on death row, and her visits along with it, had always been such a sorry affair for the two of them. He'd considered getting her a gift this year, but then deciding against it, wondering if it would just make her cry or get angry at him.

Either way, it didn't feel appropriate.]


... I did, actually. I was... taken aback by the outpouring of generosity from people here.
roboticists: (⧧ show me your badge why don't you)

Huh.

[ That wasn't the answer she was expecting, but no matter. Simon has always been someone who was beloved by the people around him, including Aura herself. ]

Anything good? Or is it all swords and kimonos and crap like that?

[ Simon really shouldn't be trying to compete with Haru to be the protagonist of Touken Ranbu. ]

I did get a collection of swords, actually, but they were far from 'crap', as you so eloquently put it. Their craftsmanship is superb.

[See also: Archer is a horrible enabler for Blackquill's nerdy tendencies. At least they have the practical use of self-defence as well, given the spates of erratic robot behaviour in the city.]

Taka recieved a few gifts too. But neither of us recieved any gadgets or the like that would pique your interest, I'm afraid.
