[no game, open RP] The "pester Edgeworth in his office" post

[truthsnomiracle]

[Chances are, when you enter room 1202 of the Prosecutor's Office, you'll find High Prosecutor Miles Edgeworth hard at work. He learned the hard way not to be too quick to throw people out when they interrupt him, so as annoyed as he probably will be once he notices your presence, you'll more likely than not get a sufficient chance to justify yourself. Usually.]

[Why, Edgeworth! Guess who came to visit today? At least she has the decency to knock first.]

Hi! :)

[truthsnomiracle]

[Indeed, a gesture much appreciated since it allows him a moment to roll his chair backward to the shelf under the window to set his teacup down in a spot where it's less likely to be knocked to the floor by a stray whip.]

Ah, Franziska. To what do I owe this visit?

[All of her lashes are well-placed and meaningful, Miles Edgeworth.]

A report from Scruffy tells me you've been neglecting your health, Miles Edgeworth.

[truthsnomiracle]

[Edgeworth appears unimpressed yet unsurprised at this accusation as he rolls back to his usual position and crosses his arms.]

The detective's concern is unwarranted. While I have been burdened with an unusual number of cases as of late, I have been creating or buying meals as healthy as my current schedule allows.

[whipthebell.livejournal.com]

Scruffy seemed more concerned with your sleeping habits, Miles Edgeworth. Falling asleep on your case files is most unbecoming.

[truthsnomiracle]

Grrk! (The detective saw that?!)

I... must admit that under the circumstances I've found it difficult to allow for the proper amount of sleep in my schedule. I can only trust that this workload shall pass and do my utmost to cope in the interim.

[whipthebell.livejournal.com]

...This lack of sleep had better not interfere with your ability to present your cases perfectly, Miles Edgeworth.

[Whipcrack!]

If it does, I will personally see to it that your workload is cut.

[truthsnomiracle]

I assure you, I will make every effort to ensure that I will present each of these cases to the best of my ability. Do keep in mind, however, the possibility of a wrongful indictment. I have my suspicions that one of these cases in particular needs to be reexamined.

1/2

[whipthebell.livejournal.com]

If it exists in the evidence, I'm sure you will find it and explain it perfectly. However...

[whipthebell.livejournal.com]

If you make a mistake due to a poor interpretation of otherwise pristine logic, you will hear it from my whip.

[truthsnomiracle]

I would prioritize the case in question, if not for the fact that another case's trial is set to begin tomorrow. It is not a case that would be cause for concern but for the fact that the defense is third-rate. I'll be in the position of practically having to present both sides myself.

[Yeeeaaah, stressful week.]

Keywords relevant.

[whipthebell.livejournal.com]

Then I suggest you find someone else to handle one of your cases, Miles Edgeworth. You must never do anything less than your absolute best, with every case.

[truthsnomiracle]

Are you volunteering, Franziska?

[whipthebell.livejournal.com]

If that is what it takes. Fortunately, I have the time to spare.

[truthsnomiracle]

Huh. One would think that the cases would be distributed more equally between us than that. Given that they were not, I suppose that I must carefully consider which of the four cases I've been assigned to would do best in your hands.

[whipthebell.livejournal.com]

I have merely been busy with other things of late. I am between cases now.

[She'd been fairly put out to discover they'd distributed things without her. So what if she finished her other work faster than they expected! That was no fault of hers.]

[truthsnomiracle]

(It wouldn't do to hand the case Meinrad Vocate is defending against off to her; that would be akin to sending a rabid wolf to do the job of a well-trained dog. It will have to be one of the other three. It would be best for my own performance to give her the other case that I've already mentioned, but I am left to wonder whether she possesses the necessary flexibility to deal with a situation that appears so open to interpretation past the first layer...)
