Where: Somni
Style: First or Third
Status: OPEN OPEN OPEN OPEN. If you're still out in the storm, then you need shelter. Get the hell inside. The courthouse is stable. You may run into some scary soldiers, but hey, doesn't that make it more fun?
Raiden led a very shell-shocked

"Yechhh, that was a nasty earthquake earlier," Phoenix muttered to himself, wringing water out of his jacket. "I wonder how Edgeworth held up..."
Probably not very well, was what ran through Phoenix's mind the next minute. With a sigh, he took a good look around the place, only to find that he wasn't the only one seeking shelter from the storm.

She had only entered the courthouse and brightened when she noticed a familiar spiky haired man. "Daddy!"

"T-Trucy! You're... you're all wet!" he said, walking towards her. "You're gonna catch a death of a cold."
He was thinking of offering his own jacket, but it was just as wet. Well, probably not as wet, but still. He bit his lip, wondering what a real dad would do in this situation.
"Here, give me your uh... cape," he said, extending a hand. "Wearing a wet cape will only make you colder, so it would be best to remove it and let it dry a little."

"Even if we dried my cape, I don't think we'll be able to save my hat," pouted Trucy as she removed her blue magician's hat from her head. Hopefully she could pull another one out of her magic panties...

"Eh, your hat, huh?" He glanced at the slightly soggy silk hat. There seemed to be little hope for recovery.

She regretted not packing another cape in there or a jacket even; without her cape she was left wearing her black dress which was soaked. She sneezed again before zipping the bag shut with another sigh.

"Here, Trucy," he said, draping the jacket around her shoulders. "This isn't that great, but it's better than nothing."

"It's fine, Daddy! In fact its better than great!"

Maybe it was her utterly sweet nature that caught him off guard, but he found himself wondering if just maybe... nah. It just couldn't be. Shaking the thoughts from his head, he decided exploring his new surroundings would be the best thing to do.
"Trucy, do you know where we are?"
Reply
As she glanced around, she did recognize her surroundings though. "But it looks like we're a court house or something. I bet you feel right at home don't you, Daddy?"

Judging by how strange and chaotic this "world" was, he highly doubted that a proper legal system actually existed here. Much less a proper government and whatnot.

Trucy had often found herself bored, and if Phoenix started an office up she'd have something to do! Her blue eyes sparkled, "And there's a prosecutor here too so you two could be rivals! Think of possibilities, Daddy!”
Reply
She seemed to excited, and seemed to know at least a bit of the world of lawyers. She met Edgeworth, apparently. He was the only prosecutor he could think of that he's met so far, unless there were others.
'Why do I feel so alone on the defense all of a sudden?!' Phoenix thought to himself, scratching his neck nervously.

"Plus, Mr. Edgeworth doesn't seem like the type to not stay busy. You two are gonna have a lot of time on your hands."

There was no real downside to this plan, even if he wasn't 100% sure about the idea, but it was probably a lot better than just sitting around moping.

The magician made a mental note to get started on looking for an appropriate location for the office once the rain let up. She would of course have to take her Daddy along; even if his choice of decoration was slightly questionable, he would be working there too!
