Why yes I do need CR

It was a couple hours after Franziska's arrival at the house that Ruka first caught sight of her. She vaguely remembered speaking to another her before-an older Franziska, closer to Edgeworth's age than Ruka's-but that had been nearly a full year ago, and she couldn't remember much besides that.

But there she was now, only a couple years older than Ruka herself, left to her own devices in the sitting room. Well, Ruka thought, if she was going to be staying here, too, Ruka should probably get to know her, as well.

Ruka knocked on the frame of the door, not wanting to intrude on their newest resident. "Are you finding everything alright?"

[littlebratziska]

Franziska was sitting primly, knees together, with her hands on her knees and her back straight, looking around the apartment rather uncertainly, though she tried to disguise the emotion as something else. Disdain or boredom or something, it didn't much matter, what mattered was that she shouldn't be uncertain about anything.

She didn't understand this place. She didn't understand how Miles had apparently managed to age almost a decade in about five minutes, she wasn't sure what she could do anymore, which she hated. She hated that she couldn't leave, she hated that she couldn't understand why, she hated that nothing was as it should be-

And then, as Franziska stared in uncertainty/disdain at a bookshelf and tried to read the titles on the spines without moving closer - easier in some cases than others - there was a knock on the door frame. She spun around and almost jumped, but it was just some girl with green hair. So she smiled and lifted her chin just a hair, arrogantly.

"Of course."

[gallitrap]

The other girl sat like Ruka usually did, all straight lines and locked joints, but Ruka could tell she was putting more effort into it than Ruka herself usually did. She doubted the other girl was nearly as put-together and composed as she appeared-knowing what she did about Edgeworth's home, it wasn't as if trans-dimensional time-country-universe hopping was exactly common enough to be gotten used to.

But, if Franziska wanted to affect that sort of face, Ruka didn't really have any reason to make things more difficult but pointing it out. (At least, for now.) Instead, she nodded in return, smiling back.

"I'm glad. And, did Uncle Edgeworth or anyone explain everything, already?"

Okay, so it is totally midday right now. Or mid-afternoon. Details are sketchy.

At any rate, Ema is enjoying some times off work... by going over her own notes and observations since arriving in the City again. She is sitting in the kitchen and going over a small stack of notebooks, with an open bag of potato chips sitting next to the notebooks. A couple stoppered vials of odd-colored liquids are resting on the table just past the notebooks. Once in a while her attention flicks to them for a few seconds, but the notebooks are her main focus here.

[gallitrap]

Like in any household, the kitchen is often a frequent spot for chance encounters, and today is a prime example of such: Ruka slips in for what she presumed would only be a moment to get something to drink before she starts practicing some split-focus concentration exercises, but hesitates on the threshold when she spots Ema with her notebooks and chips and vials. She hasn't spoken to Ema much beyond introductions and other such things; for as personal as Ruka pretends to be, she still gets a little anxious around people she doesn't know.

Crossing through the kitchen and to the refrigerator, Ruka pauses with her gloved fingers on the handle, and looks curiously at Ema's set-up.

"... What are those, anyway?" she suddenly asks, gesturing towards the vials.

[moveovergrissom]

Oh hey, it was Edgeworth's... adopted daughter? Ema was not entirely sure abotu their relation to each other, really. She would have to make a scientific inquiry into the matter later. Regardless, she did want to get to know the girl better. She seemed nice, and was closer to Ema's age than most of the people she talked to on any regular basis. Other people around Ema's age who she could relate to were few and far between, it seemed.

And the girl... Ruka, Ema was pretty sure that was her name. Or Rua... or was that the other twin's name? Well, perhaps her name would come out during conversation.

"Well, the purple one's a solution of..." Ema lapsed into the names of a few different chemicals that made up the contents of the vials, "I'm making sure they don't change while I'm out of the room."

It was late, late evening, though perhaps then closer to dawn than dusk. The house was quiet, but not entirely still; Ruka, who often did not sleep as well as other girls her age, was already awake. Or, perhaps, had never really slept at all.

At any rate, the clock was closing on four, and the girl was flicking through some cards absently, though the room still too dark to distinguish words.

Cheshire had just returned from a hunt, scouring the City for the perfect place for a kill. He wasn't ready to kill anything bigger than a bird just yet, but soon. He hoped.

Silently he wandered towards Ruka's room, fading in and out of visibility.

"Rrrrrrrrrr," he jumped up onto the bed, "learning to read in the dark?"

[gallitrap]

His voice sliced through the quiet darkness and Ruka's on-and-off concentration with it; she looked up with a mild jolt as the cat landed on her bed. Her bearings were slower in coming than in daylight, and it took her a couple seconds to finally brush that off, shaking her head.

"No, nothing like that," she replied in quiet tone for the late/early hour. "Just looking at the monsters."

Ema was in her room when Remus knocked, working quietly on compiling a list of various chemicals she would have to restock on soon. "Going to need more magnesium..." she muttered, jotting it down. she stood up, "Going to need more chips too, I'm almost out."

But what was this? A knock at the door? "Come on in!" she called, pulling her glasses up and turning toward the door to greet whoever it was.

VISITING FOR WHATEVER REASON
