* Miles_Edgeworth heads outside, away from the chatter of how his alternate is causing drama with Phoenix's alternate.
* Mia_Fey seems to be happy to be away from the others and mostly Naruhodo. "Sorry to drag you out here like this."
[Miles_Edgeworth] Don't be. It is really no inconvenience at all.
[Mia_Fey] That's good to hear. Anyways, I really don't have much to say. I just wanted an excuse to get out of there.
* Miles_Edgeworth smiles a bit. "Well, you certainly had me going for a moment there.."
* Mia_Fey raises an eyebrow to that comment. "What do you mean...Miles?"
[Miles_Edgeworth] I was worried that something was wrong.
* Miles_Edgeworth sips on his tea innocently.
[Mia_Fey] Something is wrong. Him.
[Miles_Edgeworth] Him?
[Mia_Fey] Naruhodo, he isn't what I imagined him to be.
* Miles_Edgeworth glances off to the side. "Well.. I believe Wright said it had something to do with timing."
* Mia_Fey sighs, before taking a long drink of tea. "Hn. Wright has a good point. But then again, I don't think either of them are supposed to be here."
[Miles_Edgeworth] Things worked out for myself and Wright because we met up at.. an appropriate time.
* Miles_Edgeworth looks rather awkward for a moment.
[Mia_Fey] So then, what do you think about this current situation?
* Miles_Edgeworth blinks at Mia. "I am only aware of what I was like at that age. My alternate dislikes me immensely."
[Mia_Fey] "...One more question for you then, what do you think will happen to Reiji and Naruhodo?"
[Miles_Edgeworth] ...
* Miles_Edgeworth finishes his tea, glancing out at the yard.
[Miles_Edgeworth] Well..
[Miles_Edgeworth] I know why Mitsurugi is acting how he is, but I cannot say for Naruhodo because.. he's not very fond of me, either.
* Miles_Edgeworth is such an unliked jerk, unintentionally, too.
[Mia_Fey] ...I figured as much.
* Mia_Fey turns her gaze away from him to stare out at the yard as well. "Then...that makes us no different."
* Miles_Edgeworth glances to her, rather curious. "What do you mean?"
[Mia_Fey] "Me...and those two. We're the same, in the big picture. We're nothing more than alternates; shadows of another person."
* Miles_Edgeworth needs to /stop forgetting about that/. He tries to backpedal with his words. "No, I did not mean.." Crap. "I did not mean it like that."
[Miles_Edgeworth] I mean, I am just as much Mitsurugi's alternate as he is mine.
[Mia_Fey] "...It's not your fault, I've been thinking about this for a long time now."
[Mia_Fey] "It's just...I'll never be the Mia Fey from your world, Doesn't that bother you, in a way?"
* Miles_Edgeworth looks at his almost empty mug a moment.
* Miles_Edgeworth sighs. "The Mia Fey in my world does not exist anymore." He shifts his eyes back to her. "If I were to be bothered by that, that would mean I would prefer to never have a chance at getting to know you."
[Miles_Edgeworth] That... bothers me more than anything.
* Mia_Fey moves closer to him "I think I understand, in a way."
* Mia_Fey puts both of her arms around his waist gently. "I want you to know something."
[Miles_Edgeworth] ...Yes?
* Miles_Edgeworth does reply with one of his arms around her. Of course, the other is holding a mug. Kind of useless.
[Mia_Fey] "...That day, when I had to face von Karma, you was there. And I called out to that other you after court...but he ignored me."
* Miles_Edgeworth looks sheepish again. "Ahh.. my apologies." Even if it isn't his fault. "I was.. a bit of a jerk back then."
* Mia_Fey shakes her head lightly. "No...It was my fault, not yours. Because, I wanted to believe that he was the same as you."
* Miles_Edgeworth manages a slight smile as he removes his arm from her waist and lightly brushes against her cheek with his hand. "Does it bother you that I am not from your time?"
[Mia_Fey] "No...But it makes me sad that he isn't like you."
[Mia_Fey] "I think...I've come to a conclusion. The Nexus, it makes it so none of those things matter."
* Miles_Edgeworth chuckles a bit. "I do not need to contest against myself for your affections." God, not another him running around. "That would make sense."
* Mia_Fey finally gives him a honest smile. "...You know, I think you'll need to remind me of those feelings, Miles."
[Miles_Edgeworth] ...Oh really..
* Miles_Edgeworth raises an eyebrow at her again.
* Mia_Fey gives him a smirk.
* Miles_Edgeworth can't hold the smug look for long. He leans in and gently kisses her.
* Mia_Fey drops the mug to the ground, so that she can place both of her hands on the back of his neck, keeping him from moving away.
* Miles_Edgeworth widens his eyes a moment.. before he drops the mug as well. Ah heck, it wasn't his to begin with. He pulls her closer in return, hands snaking around her waist.
* Mia_Fey allows herself to be dragged in close, kissing his lips lightly every few seconds, only stopping after a few minutes.
[Mia_Fey] "Miles...I don't want to go back to my apartment tonight..."
* Miles_Edgeworth leans his forehead against her's, not letting her pull away. "Ahh.." He falls silent a moment. "I'm sure you could find a nice side room in there to spend the night." He's teasing, of course.
* Mia_Fey laughs a little to his comment. "I don't want to scare Wright if he happens to see the two of us together in a bedroom."
* Miles_Edgeworth smirks. "I suppose that would be too much for him to handle." And might end up with Phoenix killing him. "Would my place suffice?"
[Mia_Fey] "Your place...would be perfect. However, just because your a master prosecutor doesn't mean we're going 'there' just yet. If you get what I mean."
* Miles_Edgeworth does his best shocked look.
[Miles_Edgeworth] I would not expect to.
* Miles_Edgeworth is totally not a perv. Of course not.
* Mia_Fey laughs at his reaction. "I'm grateful that you appreciate my wishes. Although, that still doesn't mean that I won't sleep in your bed tonight."
* Miles_Edgeworth manages a sigh, although that faintly amused expression still remains. "Ahh wonderful. Looks like I have to fight Pess for the couch then."
* Mia_Fey kisses him quickly, before speaking up again. "Now now, I'm not that cruel of a woman. Me and you can share for the night...I see nothing wrong with it."
* Miles_Edgeworth smiles at the kiss. It was hard not to. "I would certainly not wish to impose."
* Mia_Fey smiles back at him. "You're not imposing at all. In fact, I'd feel bad if you had to sleep on the couch."
* Miles_Edgeworth says innocently. "There's nothing wrong with my couch. Pess likes it just fine."
* Mia_Fey nudges him lightly with one hand. "Yes, but you're not a dog. You're a elegant sword-wielding knight, as far as I can tell.
* Mia_Fey laughs a little at what she just said. "That was a rather weak pick-up line, wasn't it?"
* Miles_Edgeworth is nudged, but doesn't move. Instead, he laughs.
[Miles_Edgeworth] Ahh, but it was charming. I would not mind being a knight.
[Miles_Edgeworth] So long as you are my damsel, fair Mia.
[Mia_Fey] I'll be the fair lady who fights valiantly beside my knight, of course, Sir Miles Edgeworth.
[Miles_Edgeworth] Sounds like a deal. Just do not get captured anytime soon.
* Mia_Fey laughs at his comment, giving him a confident look. "I won't be one of those type of women, unfortunately."
[Miles_Edgeworth] All the better for me, then. I doubt I'd fare well against a dragon.
[Mia_Fey] "Well then, instead of fighting the dragon, shall we ride off to your kingdom on a silver horse?"
* Miles_Edgeworth grins a bit. "Of course." He kisses her forehead. "I might have to brush up on olde English if we wish to continue this line of conversation."
* Mia_Fey she smiles at his kiss, moving one hand to grab his. "No need. I think we've gotten to a point where normal conversation is fine. Shall we go now Miles? No one will miss us."
* Miles_Edgeworth lets himself be brought along. "Of course. Although.. I must warn you in advance.." He smirks again, almost slyly. "I might be tempted to snuggle if we share a bed." He holds up his hand, prosecutor's honor. "I promise to not do anything more."
* Mia_Fey leans in closer to him, whispering into his ear with a gentle voice. "I trust you, Sir Miles, and I don't mind it at all."
* Miles_Edgeworth hns, nodding with a smile. "Let's depart then, shall we?"
