Application for Apollo Justice, from... Apollo Justice

Oct 04, 2008 22:57

... So either Trucy had learnt how to improve her illusions, or something really weird was happening to Apollo. And, considering the usual events in Apollo's life, if he thought something was really weird, it was pretty darned odd.

Crowley stared at the kid with the weird fringe. Another fucking lawyer... But all he could say was, "Apollo Justice? Seriously?"

Apollo's hand self-consciously went to his hair. It's just gel, people! Pay attention to the badge, not the hair! ... Please?

"S-seriously!" he answered defensively. "It's a great name for a defence attorney! Er, e-excuse me for asking, but who are you? Are you a new client...?"

Apollo kind of hoped not. Defending Wocky had been difficult enough, and something about this man was suggesting 'mafia' to Apollo.

((My apologies, Crowley. It's the suit and sunglasses XD))

"You couldn't be anything else," the demon retorted dryly. "The name's Anthony Crowley and I'm just one of the resident bastards around the place. I'm not a new client."

He smiled.

"Unless I get caught."

"I could," Apollo answered. "I could be a... prosecutor. Or... judge. Or... er. Police officer?" Okay, so he had to admit, his name didn't leave him with a wide variety of career choices. It was a good thing he liked being a defence attorney, then. Well, most of the time. When he wasn't defending uncooperative clients.

"Do you know what this place is? It... looks a lot like Disneyland."

"Not with that hair, kid," Crowley smirked. "But maybe you should have gone into the police force considering your amazing deductive skills. This is, in fact, inter-dimensional Disneyland. You'll be here a while."

I bet Mr Wright never got so much grief over his hair, Apollo thought glumly.

"You should see some of the detectives on the force," mumbled Apollo. "Wait, hold up. Inter-dimensional Disneyland? ... Aren't we in California?"

Crowley pointed at the nothingness behind Apollo. "That look like California to you?"

"... It could be really, really bad fog?"

"You'd like to think that, I'm sure," sneered Crowley. "No one knows what it actually is apart from a magic barrier that keeps us here and makes us really sick if we try to leave."

Apollo (and his hair) drooped in resignation. "I'm taking it the people already here have tried finding a way to get out?"

"Walking, digging, flying, you name it. Mostly people just disappear without warning. They've found some kind of mysterious door, I guess, but no one can open it. But the food and supplies magically restock themselves, the weather's always nice, and there are some five dozen other interesting people to talk to, so you get used to it."

Crowley smiled. "Oh, and if you find yourself doing or saying things you normally wouldn't, don't worry about it. It's just the park fucking with you."

((Going AFK for a bit now. Love your Apollo. :D))

... For some weird reason, Apollo could actually believe Crowley when he said he'd get used to it. Apollo had, after all, gotten used to working with Trucy and Mr Wright. Well, kind of. Mostly. At least a little bit.

"What kind of things?" he asked hesitantly, not really sure if he wanted to know the answer but having to ask just because he was an attorney and he always had to ask.

"... Wait, flying?!" he added belatedly. I get the feeling Trucy would like it here.

((Yay, thank you! I really hope I'm doing him justice (lolpun).))

"Oh, talking like a pirate; snogging your best friend, your worst enemy, or possibly both; singing and dancing suddenly... That sort of thing."

The demon nodded. "We've got a couple of goddesses and other assorted non-humans around. Like I said, you get used to it."

"... Does it still make you do that even if your best friend and/or worst enemy aren't actually here?"

Apollo highly doubted he had ever been gladder that Klavier Gavin was not around. The Prosecutor was smug enough as it was.

Apollo's eyes made a very spirited attempt to escape the confines of his head. "Goddesses? S-seriously?!" But his bracelet hadn't reacted, so this guy wasn't lying. It was still pretty difficult to believe, though.

"More than likely," he said. "Especially if they're the same person." Which was certainly true in his case.

Crowley normally didn't lie if he didn't have to. The truth was often much more cruel. "Sure. Couple of those, some demons, an android, the undead..."

Apollo couldn't think of a decent verbal reply, so let his expression and drooping hair talk for him. His best friend was... probably Trucy, but there was something extremely weird about the thought of kissing her. (Never mind the fact Mr Wright would probably kill him. And then expect Apollo to defend him on the murder charge). As for 'worst enemy', it was probably either of the Gavin brothers: Klavier was Apollo's official rival, while Kristoph was... kind of evil. Apollo wasn't keen on the thought of kissing either of them.

"... Next you'll tell me the Steel Samurai's here. H-he's not, is he?"
