--one [video]

[Great, one of these things again. This was all feeling a little too familiar. A video shows up on the network, but Lisbeth's face is barely visible. It may seem more like an accidental video. The left side of her body is visible.]

I don't do well in confined spaces.

First - [He clears his throat, self-conscious.] It's good to hear you somewhat recovered. Second, might I inquire as to the root of your relationship with this young woman?

[Oh my god, Edgeworth, how is that your business at all.]

She's my roommate.

She's your friend from before. My question: which "before"?

Does it matter?

I wouldn't be asking if it didn't.

[Yes you would because you're Edgeworth.]

The place I just came from.

[Right.]

And she was your roommate there?

Yeah. Why?

I'd like to find out a bit more about this prior world of yours.

Can it wait? I've got about the biggest clusterfuck like ever going on right now.

Er -

[He clears his throat.]

It...can, yes. That was my intention - to set up a meeting with the two of you. Are you referring to the conversation with Loki?

[personal profile] hostage 2012-08-09 05:18 am (UTC)(link)
No, just -

[Christ, what is this day? With the jump. And Jane. And the heroin. And Lisbeth. And Loki. Even if he wanted to have this manly bonding moment with Edgeworth being all concerned, he wouldn't know where to start.]

We'll talk later.

As you will. I'll be in contact with you in the next day or so. Will that give you time enough to resolve this conundrum?
hostage: (eyeroll ☣)

Maybe. I dunno. Whatever, yeah.

A yes or a no. I want your full attention when we speak.

[He's satisfied with that. It sounds far better than "I don't want to upset you further."]

Maybe.

If you need more time, tell me no. I won't fight you on it; you have my word.

A few days.

A few days. You have them.
