Still 1st evening

[doubledefense]

[ AFTER SOME APPROPRIATE AMOUNT OF CRYING AND/OR MAKING OUT it's time to get down to business. just like all the other times it was time to get down to business after a lot of making out. Mia is straightening up her blazer and adjusting scarf over hickies expertly. ]


... in any case, what do you make of the situation? If we're trying to root out bad apples, there's a shiny red one that's hard to miss.

[ It was highly inappropriate ( like most of the other times ), but Diego was feeling, for once in a long time, close to happy. Of course, he's too old for dopey smug smiles, but he's considerably more relaxed.

He sits on the bed, smoothing out his wrinkled tie and his slacks. ]

It's someone's sick game of life and death and treachery. About half of the people here are actually convicts.

Still, when it comes to who's getting picked tonight, I've only got one person in mind.

Hawthorne.


[ It isn't a question. ]

[talldarkbitter]

[ He taps the end of his nose. ]

We may all be doomed no matter what and it's just a matter of deciding which order we go in. It's impossible to tell this thing's motives or its goals at this moment. The clock is ticking. If we're going to possibly find a way out of here, we've got to figure out who to throw on the fire in the meantime.

[ He doesn't like it. Of course he doesn't like it. But that's how it is. ]

...

Of course, your protege is out there playing Clue.

If someone has to burn, we should make sure it's the actual witch. She has no business outside of hell anyway.


[ SHE DOESN'T MIND IT ONE BIT. Not if it's Hawthorne. ]


Protege... erm, you mean Phoenix Wright?

[talldarkbitter]

That's... yes.

[ His bitter heart warms a little for what she says about Dahlia. It's exactly his sentiments. ]

I guess that's after your time.

[ And his, to an extent. ]

I'm not sure what he did to win you over to training him. But it's a fact.

[doubledefense]

[ Yes well, she's still a little sore on the whole "murdered my boyfriend" thing. Certainly Armando can sympathize. ]


I'll talk to him, I know he's a good kid, but an attorney?


In any case, I won't accept that this is a hopeless situation. I won't let anything happen to you or Maya, or even Mr. Wright.
