14: An explanation please.

[samuraiprosecutor]

How did you all get these things into my apartment?

And in case anyone still wishes to say it, I would prefer no 'Happy Holidays' or 'Merry Christmas' or any other such nonsense. It's a relief to have this foolishness over with for another year.

I...slept well last night. It won't last, but I suppose I can enjoy it while it does.


((OOC: Since Edgeworth's not saying it [because, well, he's Edgeworth], thank you to the characters who got him presents. :D His schwag list is as follows, as far as I've seen. If anyone else got him anything feel free to comment and mention it. The fact that he got anything at all confuses him greatly.

Bourne: A selection of nice black teas
Mikaela: Gourmet dog treats for Sigi
Lisa Cuddy: A warm scarf and a book [his choice really]
Possibly something from Zelos, should I assume he got it, Yami?))

Aw, a little Christmas spirit didn't hurt anyone, Scrooge.

Since Christmas has gone and pass: happy holidays, man~!

[samuraiprosecutor]

I shouldn't have talked to it. Now it's never going to leave.

Bah. Humbug.

[lol-shinigami.livejournal.com]

It? I know the braid can throw people off but really, man. How old are you? Maybe your eyesight is going bad.

Well, you're just a cheery guy all around, aren't ya?

[samuraiprosecutor]

Old enough to consider you young. Maybe you should cut your hair.

If you insist on staying here, you'll find out.

[lol-shinigami.livejournal.com]

Hell no. The ends of my hair have been with me longer than anything else; my hair's got memories I don't even know, and it's not going anywhere.

No need. I should've figured it out from the fact you're one of Quat's buddies.

[samuraiprosecutor]

If your hair has memories, perhaps you need someone more specialized than a stylist.

Buddies? Judging from the ones that were here before you, it does seem almost a requirement.

[lol-shinigami.livejournal.com]

Lemme guess: you know who your parents are; you grew up in a nice house where there was always a fridge full of food; and when you realized you had a name, it wasn't "hey, you!" You've never had to wonder who you're parents are; you've never had to hope you can find a comfortable place with the hobos; you've never had to hope that when you use the five-finger discount for a fucking apple, your legs can carry you fast enough before a soldier shoots you down; and you've never had to make up your own name. Everything's been constant for you; my hair is the only thing that has been for me.

You are his friend, aren't you?

[samuraiprosecutor]

The next time you decide to pull out that story, perhaps you should find out more about the person you're trying it on first. Not everyone is going to be impressed. Though, oddly enough, you are right on all counts. My life must have been an idyllic one.

I wonder which is worse: having no constants, or losing the only constants that actually matter?

You would have to ask him that.

[lol-shinigami.livejournal.com]

What the hell makes you think I was trying to impress you? You pushed it; I only gave the reason why I won't cut my hair. You think I was actually trying to get something like sympathy from you? Tch, don't fucking flatter yourself.

Depends on what you think matters. I'd rather lose them. Guess we should've swapped lives.

I know his answer. What's yours?

[samuraiprosecutor]

The tone of your writing. If you were only looking to give a reason, your last sentence would have more than sufficed.

Judging from your comments, something you didn't have. Which again begs the question, does it hurt less if you don't know what you're missing? Is ignorance truly bliss?

That is between him and me.

[attorneyatlol]

You found presents, too, huh? It was probably Jordan. He did say he'd be playing Santa, after all...

[Locked]
Hey, is everything all right? What's with that guy up there?

[Locked]

[samuraiprosecutor]

I suppose. The how isn't really what concerns me.

Apparently, none of Quatre's friends have his level-headed personality.

[Locked]

[attorneyatlol]

Then... the why? Edgeworth...

Apparently not.

Re: [Locked]

[samuraiprosecutor]

Something to say, Wright?

[Locked]

[attorneyatlol]

Yeah, uh. How's your day so far?

Re: [Locked]

[samuraiprosecutor]

The same as any other day. Yours?

[Locked]

[attorneyatlol]

About the same.

Re: [Locked]

[samuraiprosecutor]

...I see.

[Locked] 1/2

[attorneyatlol]

Yeah, so...

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

MERRY FUCKING CHRISTMAS :D

[samuraiprosecutor]

...

[re-formed.livejournal.com]

Jordan was dropping presents off.

Um. Is the tea alright?

[samuraiprosecutor]

...It is. I'm enjoying a cup right now, actually.

[re-formed.livejournal.com]

Oh. Um. I'm glad you like it.

[samuraiprosecutor]

I do. It is a very good blend. I...appreciate the gesture.


((OOC: Oh lawd, is that a thank you?))
