[ARCHIVED] IC-inbox

[cantacquityou]

...This is a general post for Paradisa residents, should anyone wish to harass visit or contact Edgeworth ICly. If you are not from Paradisa (I.E., from another game/dressing room, etc), you are welcome to interact with Edgeworth via his Hotel Room. 

 LOLNOPE. Edgey has a new inbox now. Go there.

Room at various angles.

...Because Edgeworth is very well-off, there will be no question that he will request as much from the castle as he can to feel 'at home.' Therefore, his room will be inspired by a room of one of his favourite hotel suites - the Hazlitts in Soho, London. The hotel room is a bit smaller than it appears in the picture, but is extremely richly furnished and decorated. However, with opulence comes a price, as usual, and because of Edgeworth's fastidious tastes, the castle will inflict upon him at least one temporary loss per month. Unbeknownst to Edgeworth, of course.

At any given time, there will be a book or two on the bed, and others placed sporadically at various crevasses within the room.  There is another, smaller partition of the room containing a couch, small table, and chair. There are a pair of small speakers, a heated blanket, a small fridge with at least two wine bottles, and a heating apparatus that doesn't emit microwaves. There's also a burgundy/blue chess set. There's no television, no futon, and of course, no Oldbag . There is a black box on the desk that requires not only a key to be opened, but a sliding puzzle to be solved. There's also a medium-sized kitchen. The bathroom is nothing particularly fascinating, as he doesn't spend enough time in there to feel the need to expend too much effort in decorating it, and it is much smaller than one may expect after seeing the room. There is, however, a clean bathtub lined with a few red/gold, unused candles.









See the chess piece? Definitely Edgeworth's room.

The kitchen is similar to this, but quite smaller:

I wasn't aware that I was playing to 'win' anything, Wright.

[takethat]

[Just ignoring that.]

If I leave you alone to your own devices... will you be happy then?

[cantacquityou]

No, not necessarily.

My happiness is not dependent on your absence, Wright. But I haven't a clue what I could say to express what I'd like without making matters worse. I am drained. So, as for now, I would like to plead the Fifth, and I will return to Paradisa in an effort to hopefully quell this nonsensical feud between us...


...that is, if you have no objections.

[takethat]

....no. I have no objections. You can do whatever you want to do--whatever you think is best.

[cantacquityou]

I am no longer considering what I think is best.

[takethat]

...whatever you want to do, then.

[Because honestly? He's just too worn down to bother with any of it right now.

Congratulations, Edgeworth. He's systematically moving toward not caring anymore.]

[cantacquityou]

[Ditto, here.]



I would appreciate a more honest answer.

[takethat]

This is my answer. I'm not talking to you about it anymore.

[cantacquityou]

[...The man I called my 'best friend' hates me :< Edgeworth slumps into his chair.]


...Alright, then.

[takethat]

[Now he's just standing there, awkward and unsure whether or not he should stick to his guns and leave for the night.]

...I hope Vera isn't tearing up my room or anything.

[cantacquityou]

Quite unlikely if she is asleep.

[takethat]

[So much for small talk...]

...maybe Magikarp is tearing up my room instead. You never know.

[cantacquityou]

[...Ah, small talk. One of my weak spots.]



...I'd say it's lucky she's asleep. Veritas does have a liking for fish.

[takethat]

Magikarp's probably too tough to eat. He hurts... look, look what he did to me.

[Rolling up his shirt sleeve to reveal a new, very angry-looking welt stretching from the back of his wrist to his elbow.]

[cantacquityou]

...Hmph. Sharing battle scars, are we?



[He rolls up a pant-leg to reveal a large, circular red mark from a recent, 1st degree burn on his leg.]

[takethat]

Did Vera do that to you?

[The sight of it causes a quick, sudden jolt of desire to take care of Edgeworth, but he shrugs it off, certain that won't help strengthen the tenuous cord that's holding things together between them right now.]

[cantacquityou]

But, of course. That very day.

[takethat]

Are you taking care of yourself?

[Such a question isn't really just about the burn...]

[cantacquityou]

I've been trying my best.

[takethat]

[Muttering, though still audible with effort]

You could let somebody else help for a change.

[cantacquityou]

...I did.

[takethat]

...ah.

[He reaches for another piece of that sushi, although he's still standing.]

[cantacquityou]

...Now, have you changed your mind about leaving, or will you be coming with me?

[takethat]

...if you're still actually serious, I'll come with you.

[cantacquityou]

...Good.
