So.

[ well hey, you guys, have a new face on the feed today. he's one of the new arrivals, trying to get used to this new space lifestyle!! which means friends are... probably a good thing. maybe. he's not sure yet, but he knows he needs to meet people. the ~general populace~, so to speak. ]

Space, huh?

[ wait no. he kind of frowns at that. worst opener. but then he considers all the posts that he's seen (memorized) since he's arrived and well, this ain't so bad. ]

I was... woooonnndering, uh. How many of you are from... New York City? Circa... 2011 or 2012. Ish.

[ man this is chalking up to be one of the most awkward experiences of his life. it's just-- this is like skype alright, except when you use skype you usually know who you're talking to-- here? way different. haha posting to a network, that's weird.

he is usually not this bad but you are also all strangers so. yeah. wait, here's a good idea. i mean, he has a lot of free time now so-- ]

Oh yeah and uh, does anyone know where I could get a camera? Thanks.

[ does he end the post now DOES HE END THE POST NOW he totally ends the post now! yes! good job, mike ross. you successfully completed the goal of posting a video post to the network. next time, maybe have an idea of what you want to talk about beforehand. ]

You too, Miles.

...and go easy on Mike, okay? He's new-- you remember how overwhelming that is. Give him some time, you guys can argue torts-- not the dessert kinds, and check out that legal knowledge-- to your heart's content.

[ don't ask her if she knows what tort law is-- 'not about dessert despite the misleading name, bummer' is her best answer. ]

[A pause, and then he makes a face that's halfway between embarrassed and disgusted.]

...I apologize deeply for that.

Are you kidding? Of course it's staying between us-- I get to be smug that I got Miles Edgeworth to join me in making horrible law puns, I'm not sharing that.

[He looks up; something in that sentiment makes him...oddly happy. So he smiles at her, shyly, and then ducks his head.]

Good. I've a reputation to maintain.

Your secrets are my secrets, kiddo.

[ :D :D :D come on, edgeworth, make a face at her. ]

[jurisimpudent]

[He....makes a face.]

"Kiddo"?

[unparental]

Thought you might like that one.

[jurisimpudent]

It's terrible. And inaccurate. I'm an adult.

[unparental]

You are-- only six and half years younger than me, even.

[jurisimpudent]

Precisely. That's a very small difference. A surpassingly small difference.

[unparental]

Seems like it should be, huh?

[jurisimpudent]

...There's no should be. It is.

[unparental]

Age-wise, you're absolutely right.

[jurisimpudent]

So you're calling me immature.

[unparental]

...actually the opposite.

[jurisimpudent]

Er...Wait, what?

[unparental]

My frame of reference is sixteen and owns more hoodies than I could keep washed. The kiddo thing is more about me than you.

[jurisimpudent]

...Oh. [He furrows his brow slightly.] Your niece, you mean.

[unparental]

Nephew-- although god do you remind me of her sometimes, too.

video ; locked

[jurisimpudent]

Well. I...spoke to her only on occasion, but I did speak to her enough to know to be honored by that comparison.

Just my luck to end up surrounded by kids who are all smarter than me.
