[oc funtimes? - the courthouse - WHENEVER YOU LIKE]

[applikates]

[ Kate is not amused. She doesn't like visiting courthouses. She never makes a good impression. Marc once suggested it had something to do with her bright pink hair. She'd stopped to consider this for half a minute and then shrugged it off.

Unfortunately, today, she'd been sent on a stake out. Who she was meant to be staking out was a mystery, but there's some power at work around the LA Courts, and she needed to analyse what. Her glasses darken as she scans the people coming out of a trial. Nothing. But there were people heading that way, maybe she should...

Bump right into someone. ]

Shit. ... Sorry.

is this the universe I think it is

[verily_ergo]

[The only power here is the power of Big Gay Lawyers the authority held by this frilly man.

His name is Miles Edgeworth and he disapproves of your pink hair and your slanderous language spoken in the halls of justice.]

... It's fine.

IT CAN BE IF YOU LIKE IT TO BE. (evil_grin)

[ Guessing the jeans and platform boots don't help. Kate looks at the man. ... Interesting outfit. His dress sense reminded her of someone- what was his name... !

That meant, this was... ] Miles Edgeworth, right?

I WOULD LIKE IT VERY MUCH. let me get on aim...

[verily_ergo]

... Yes?

[It's not as if this is particularly radical dress in the Ace Attorney world though, right? So he shrugs it off. That's Los Angeles for you.]

Do you need something?

OH HO HO

[applikates]

[ There's a brief frown on Kate's face, but she's back to neutral after a minute or two. ] I've got a friend who'd love to meet you. [ Actually... Marc probably would. But more importantly, she was picking something up. ] You knew Manfred von Karma, right?

[Miles stepped back to give himself proper space between himself and this unconventional woman.]

I was his student.

very y

[applikates]

[ SPACE IS FOR THE WEAK. Well, she doesn't mind. If there's something off about Edgeworth, her glasses will pick it up soon enough. ]

Do you know where I can find him?

[verily_ergo]

[Miles' brow furrows visibly.]

If you were truly interested in meeting with him, you would know that he has been jailed on murder charges. Now if you'll excuse me, I have important work to do.

[applikates]

[ Her eyes narrow behind her glasses as data transmits. Something is wrong here. ]

I'm just following orders. I heard he was here. [ Well, she heard there's a power here, and she's beginning to wonder if it's Edgeworth instead. ]

[verily_ergo]

I'm sorry, but I cannot help you.

[applikates]

... Shame. [ Kate glances to the side, her hands in her pockets. Hello, vampire. ] He gave you a lot, did he?

[verily_ergo]

... Excuse me, but who are you and why is my former teacher any of your business?

[applikates]

[ Kate shrugs. ] Kate Galloway. Like I said, it's my boss that wants the details. [ Actually, her bosses want von Karma's head, but she's not saying that to a lawyer. ]

[verily_ergo]

[Miles is beginning to put the pieces together, so it's his turn to fish for evidence.] If your boss is so interested, then he or she should call me instead.

[Here, have a business card. Miles Edgeworth, High Prosecutor of the Los Angeles County Prosecutor's Office.]

[applikates]

[ She'll take that, and looks it over before sliding it into a pocket. ] They'll be interested. [ They'll certainly be interested in this revelation, but whether she'll tell them... well, she's still apathetic towards any danger he poses. Unless HE is the force behind this courthouse, and it's possible. She checks her phone briefly before saying: ] I've gotta go.

[ Though, if Miles happens to be in the courthouse longer, he'll find her investigating. ]

[verily_ergo]

[Miles sniffs irritably and turns on his heel, walking away briskly. As he walks, he slips on a pair of dark sunglasses. It's time for him to sleep until past nightfall, and then he'll return.]
