Never thought I'd ever actually decide to go to school. Oh well, better than staying outside now the snow's gone. Nobody said I've gotta go to all of the lessons. But man, how come everyone in this dump gets cool stuff except me? Give me a break! Free money, mansions, what's next?

Still haven't seen that kid's "Digimon". It's probably not even

You're the kid who was harassing Edgeworth about his hair the other day, right?

[ore_wa_honoo]

His hair? ...You mean that old guy, right? I was just asking him about it.

[forthedefense]

Yeah, the old guy. Though we're actually the same age. I'm not here to criticize, I just wanted to let you know that it was hilarious.

[ore_wa_honoo]

Really? Heh, it was nothing!

But I gotta ask... did he seriously wear that kind of thing?

[forthedefense]

He did. It was sort of embarassing for me just by association. Not to mention that time when he saved me from condemnation by my classmates. I'm sure you can imagine how socially crippling it is to be saved by the kid in the bow-tie.

His choice of neckwear hasn't really improved with age, either.

[ore_wa_honoo]

Man, that kinda sucks. Couldn't anyone take him to a shop and show him a t-shirt or something?

[forthedefense]

We tried. Really, we did. We even said we'd settle for ties, but he was deadset on the bow-tie. Once we hid all of his bow-ties when we stayed over at his house, but he either found them or bought more because there was never a break in the trend.

Now he's on to cravats.

[ore_wa_honoo]

That's a really sad story, somehow.

You could try again! If you keep at it, he'll get the hint.

[forthedefense]

He might get the hint, but there's an equal chance that he'll sic his sister on me. She has a whip.

[ore_wa_honoo]

A wha--?

...But that's why you've gotta be careful. Think of a plan where he can't blame you!

[forthedefense]

Yeah. A whip. If you here a whip cracking, I suggest you run in the opposite direction. It's probably her.

Hmm. An interesting idea. Have any suggestions?

[ore_wa_honoo]

Okay, I'll remember that. Nobody's better at running than me!

I guess you could... buy him a shirt or something, hide it, then when he finds it, say you thought it was his? That could work.

[forthedefense]

As long as she doesn't know how to find you, this will work.

That might just work. First I'd have to get together enough money to buy a shirt... That free money is really going quickly.

[ore_wa_honoo]

It's my plan, of course it's gonna work!

Hey, that's what money does. If I had any free money, I'd help! And I could ask my, uh, friend if he'd help too.

[[...damn it. Now I want a log about this. DX ]]

[forthedefense]

Your "uh, friend"?

[[Damn lawyers and their damn log appeal D:]]

[ore_wa_honoo]

...Yeah, that's right! He's living in a mansion, so there's gotta be some money there, right? Anyway, those were my goggles.
