[The feed turns on rather hesitantly, as a face peers in at it, an angular eyebrow arching up.]

Hello? Uh, this thing is on, right-

Are we... we're actually in space, huh? Wow. That's definitely...different.

At any rate, my name's Phoenix Wright - I'm an attorney, back home.

[He zooms in on a yellow badge on the the lapel of his jacket, tapping it slightly.]

I know that might not be of much use in space, but I'm willing to help however I can - is there anything I should be reading, on that note?

[He scratches the back of his head, grinning a bit.] I'm kind of rambling here, aren't I. At any rate - it's nice to meet you all, and I hope I can help in any way.

Now, how do you turn this off again...?

[After fumbling for a moment, the feed ends.]

Oh bloody hell, not another attorney.

[He may or may not have meant to broadcast that to you, Phoenix.]

A-another attorney?

[(Oh no...)]

Edgeworth is a pain enough in everyone's arse. Please tell me you're not his sidekick, and together you make Team Blind Faith in a Faulty Justice System.

(Edgeworth's here? Well, that explains it...)

N...no. I'm a defense attorney. Edgeworth's a prosecutor.

Well thank god for small favors. Though somehow I'm not surprised you know him.

We've met before in court. But...

(Something's off about that...)

Edgeworth doesn't exactly operate on "blind faith", last I remember...

Maybe "stubborn faith" would be a more accurate term. He's the kind of bloke who refuses to see that Earth law as it's written in stone is not always the best or most practical solution, especially in extraordinary circumstances. He has no regard for severe cultural differences on a space ship, and insists on democratic process when we're all quite busy enough just trying to stay alive. Does that sound about right?

(He's not exactly wrong.)

When I first knew him, maybe... but he should have changed.

[ after a moment of staring, have some soft laughter -- nothing mean, just kind of amused. an attorney's something to do with law, right? funny how different this man is from edgeworth. ]

Good evening, Mister Wright. I do believe there's some recommended basic reading, if I could figure out how to send it -- [ some clumsy fumbling with the comm device, stray beeps and whirrs and all. ] -- ah, here we go!

[ ping! message for you! ]

[He sighs at that.]

People come here from different points in time. He might be the guy you once knew instead of the guy you know now. Sorry if that makes very little sense.

W...what!?

Time travel!? You're kidding me!

[His face focuses in as he reads, picking up as much information as he can. He seems to be fumbling with the communicator for a bit, trying to make sure to save the data.]

[► GENERAL INFORMATION has been added to the Court Record.]

This is definitely a lot to take in... and this is all we know so far?

Oh, hey, you know Miles?

Edgeworth? Yeah, we're old friends.

Rad. Hey, I'm Liberty, he's my bro. 'Sup with the cookie badge? Are you a Girl Scout?

Your... brother? Okay.

(I should have known someone would bring it up...)

...It's my state-appointed Defense Attorney's badge. Without it, I couldn't represent people in court.

...he's not my brother, he's my bro. My buddy. My friend? Wow, you really do come from where he does.

And you need a badge for that? What happens if you forget it on your other suit or something?

Oh. Oh! Okay.

(Whatever happened to people just saying they're someone's friend, anyway?)

I never forget my badge, but if I don't have it - well, it'd be like not having identification. I'd get in a lot of trouble if I tried to represent someone without my badge.

I could make that badge by scooping the filling out of a cookie.

...so could I be a defence attorney if I did that? Oh, man, wicked rad.

...I suppose you could, but don't expect to win cases anytime soon. Especially without proper education in law!

(...Then again, it can't be any worse that Tigre's attempt.)

Ffft, you should see how much me and Nedgewart fight already. It'd be easy as fuck.

Edgeworth... isn't exactly hard to start a debate with, that's for sure.

You should hear him yell in court.

[She laaaughs.]

He is such a screamer, huh?

[They're combining forces.]

Not exactly... when he does scream though... oh man. Just never give him a reason to object. Trust me on this.

(Not that I don't have to resist the urge, myself...

I don't know, now I wicked want to. Any pro tips?
