[His voice is low.]

Kelly. I...need to speak with you.

[And instantly, Jack's voice goes sharp and hard.]

What's wrong?

[He's spent a long time rehearsing what he's going to say, so there's very little hesitation.]

In my home, I keep notes on much of my research about this place - research which includes what I've learned about Edelweiss and other such intermediate worlds. Someone, it seems, was after that information. My home was broken into and those notes - among others - stolen. Though they were returned, I've little doubt that the information was taken down or copied in some manner.

[He pauses, taken by surprise, and stays silent after Edgeworth finishes.]

Oh.

[He pauses again, biting on his wrist-- a habit he's picked up from Sirius-- and closing his eyes to try and keep calm.]

How much, exactly, did you write down?

[Very quietly:]

Everything you've told me.

Damn it!

[It's unexpectedly loud, and Jack immediately bites down on his wrist again.]

You-- fuck. Who the fuck did it, do you know?

I'm investigating the matter, and have reported the break-in to the authorities, but we've...not found any evidence as of yet. It's clear that whoever it was is an expert.

So some maniac's got all me notes. Great. What about the usual shits that stir up trouble?

Such as...the Joker and the like, you mean? Or do you refer to SERO and AGI?

cowboy_newsie May 24 2011, 16:57:26 UTC
Both. Either. But I meant the Joker and Yaha and all them.

I...do not know of any who would do something like this. If it is someone amongst the Newcomers, it's...no one who has acted against me previously.

How d'ya know? I mean, it only means they's just actin' now.

mentis_reae May 24 2011, 17:03:16 UTC
Because no one - no enemy of mine - has acted in this fashion before. They've come after me, rather than after my files.

Maybe they changed tactics.
