No, uh. I bet it doesn't.
[she smooths his hair back a little.]
Miles had the same problem. It's uh, it's more like a witch hunt than a trial.

He did?
[ he frowns, looking down at the floor. ]
...I was thinking about that. How he was always being really annoying saying the truth was more important than anything. And in the last thing I was in, I thought I finally kind of understood, because if we didn't get the true culprit, then we'd be punishing someone who didn't do anything wrong.
But then today... I don't know if it was a good thing, finding that truth.

[she tilts her head back, thinking about it.]
... Emotionally? No. [she says, after a long moment.] It didn't feel good, figuring it out. And it won't. It'll continue to not feel good, and most times, it probably won't be the right choice morally.
But the thing is about these places is you have to play along. [...] You have to play a part, until you don't. So, right now, the truth is that we have to find the people who dealt the killing blow.
Because that's the only constant. If we try to vote based on who we think might have started it, based on vague evidence - we have no idea if that's right. It gets all uh, mixed up, and people's opinions and biases get in the way, and then we end up doing something worse.

[ sebastian will head over to say hi to lup whenever he sees her!
...and with a puff of stardust, she will see a familiar cravat aficionado in a scene extending from here at 9:00 to 13:16 (minus the section from 10:35 to 11:38 while he's off making a phone call). ]
Hey...!!!

Hey...!!!
[okay, well first, she just has to take a second, because she unfortunately is very fond of miles edgeworth, and when he speaks, it kind of. takes her out, a bit. lup closes her eyes for a second, sucking in a breath, and then... brushes off the stardust...]
Oh, look at you go. [she says, a little faintly, smiling.] Haha. Don't pay any attention to him, he's a brat.

[SEBASTIAN SDFSK
her ears go bright pink...]
No! [a beat.] Maybe! I don't know. Don't give me shit, I know he's your nemesis or whatever!

[sometimes you have terrible taste in men]
It's a long story. It's also not G rated, so you're not allowed to hear it. [a beat.] Was that right before you got pulled in?

Okay, well, remember that you said you're not twelve, so - yes.
I don't see what difference it makes, though.

Oh no. I've broken him.
[she says, dryly.] You didn't answer my question, by the way.
[she says, dryly.] You didn't answer my question, by the way.
Huh. I wonder when that was in comparison to when I knew him.
[she tilts her head back.]
It's funny to see the difference.

Something about the dark age of the law? We didn't talk a lot about before. Kind of busy being eaten by a furby.
