So, look, I get everybody's all jazzed about that list or whatever, and people wanna do the mourning thing. All good, have at it.

What I'm wondering though, is what we got working to find out who helped the dead dude get that way. Still pretty new around here so I don't know what you got rigged up already, but where I'm from something like this happens we mount up before there's a dead guy number two.

[ so that was... kind of a job application. if you tilt your head and squint. and to seal the deal. ]

Wouldn't mind helping out.

Clearly you're not, since your conclusions are wrong.

[voice]

[stacked]

Gee, why does that sound familiar.

[voice]

[jurisimpudent]

Don't be glib. You do not know me. I've collected enough information that I can draw conclusions about you, but the reverse is not true.

[voice]

[stacked]

Oh yeah? Prove it. Tell me how it went down, then.

[voice]

[jurisimpudent]

...I don't need to know the precise details of how it happened.

[voice]

[stacked]

So gimme big picture then. If you know it all already.

[voice]

[jurisimpudent]

[He scowls.]

You killed a man. I need know nothing more than that.

[voice]

[stacked]

That what they teach you in law school? 'Fuck it you killed him, guilty and sick until you die'.

Nice school.

[voice]

[jurisimpudent]

[Brittle:]

It's the only school I ever needed.

[voice]

[stacked]

Popular guy like you? Never would've guessed.

[ now she's just digging back. ]

[voice]

[jurisimpudent]

I am not the one under discussion; do not attempt to sidetrack us.

[voice]

[stacked]

I'm only playing ball with you because-- [ beat. ] I could just hang up, you know. And you can't do a whole hell of a lot to get anything else from me if I don't feel like talking, so you might wanna ask questions instead of shaking your finger at me.

[voice]

[jurisimpudent]

[It's a fair point, but...He clenches his teeth.]

I intend to ask questions. I'm just pointing out that we are not discussing me.

[voice]

[stacked]

[ she makes them, once and a while. ]

You ever been so pissed off you wanted to hurt anybody who gets near you, Edgeworth? I'm talking the kind of hurt it doesn't take an ice pack to fix.

[ ATTEMPTING HONESTY HERE don't be a dick about it. ]

[voice]

[jurisimpudent]

[There's a pause of a second and a half, and then he says - ]

Yes.

[voice]

[stacked]

[ she's going to attempt to be weirdly blasé about this, because actual emotional discussions about exactly how close to rock bottom she was need either a: angel or b: way more jack daniels. ]

Grew up feeling that way, then somebody made me stronger and shoved a piece of wood in my hand and told me to jam it in vampires, defeat evil and save the world, blah blah blah.

You do the math.

[voice]

[jurisimpudent]

[Quietly:]

But someone is still dead because of that.

[voice]

[stacked]

And I was ready to spend the rest of my life locked up for it.

[voice]

[jurisimpudent]

...Were you taken here from prison?

[voice]

[stacked]

More like... I kind of made my own way out a plate glass window.

[ to save the world faith your life would be much easier if you would just offer details instead of making it like pulling teeth. ]

[voice]

[jurisimpudent]

...I beg your pardon. You escaped?

[voice]

[stacked]

Wasn't really my call.

[ in fact, she tried to stay inside that's not right at all. also, kanyeshrug. ]

I owed somebody a life. [ it's clear she means one saved, not one taken here. ] And the world's not gonna save itself, I guess.

[voice]

[jurisimpudent]

[But he frowns.]

Did someone physically remove you from the prison?

[voice]

[stacked]

...more like he asked me nicely to come pay back what I owe.

[voice]

[jurisimpudent]

But your first and foremost debt is to the state. I know that, at times, it might feel as though our actions are of "world-saving" consequence, but you still have a responsibility.
