WELCOME TO YOUR PRIVATE CHANNEL, PHOENIX/'ACEATTORNEY' . FOR SECURE COMMUNICATION, USE 010.12.020.01 *** PHOENIX/'ACEATTORNEY' has joined 010.12.020.01 <ACEATTORNEY> Hello, this is Phoenix Wright of Wright & Co. Law Offices <ACEATTORNEY> ...Well I don't have that office here. But leave a message anyway. | ||||
<aceattorney>
I'll be honest, I'm not sure why either.
I only arrived here just after that case had finished so I guess she's fresh on my mind.
[Except in the dream world, Iris' hair color kept changing, alternating between red and black to resemble the woman he knew in college and the one he knew to be the genuine article.]
I had just had a bombshell dropped on me about my first love who turned out to be a cold-blooded murderer, but then turned out not to be one. It was a lot to take in.
I've heard that dreams are ways for your mind to work through things. Maybe that was what it was?
<SignalRed>
[Haha. Ha. Haha. Yes. Yes when he said that thing he was just working out some issues. Issues worked out. Thank you, very cool. Miles Edgeworth is extremely mentally healthy and not at all emotionally repressed.]
Did it help you out at all?
[Miles, this is probably medically classifiable as self-harm at this point.]
<aceattorney>
I don't know. I think it gave me some clarity that I've grown up a lot since college.
[And it helped him realize that with the whole Iris and Dahlia thing laid to rest, perhaps it's time to move on from that period of his life. Maybe.]
But I also think I just so badly want to not be here that it was easy for my mind to latch onto the last thing that happened at home.
I'm not a psychologist or anything so I don't know.
<SignalRed>
...no. Hope is a fool's emotion, putting stock in things that won't happen and never will.]
One of the last things that happened at home was that I came home from my trip to find a murder victim in my office, so I'm rather glad my dream was just sticking to the usual wants from me.
As awful as it was being captured like that, it was good for me at least to see my father. If painful.
<aceattorney>
Yeah, that would have been a weird dream to have I'm sure.
I'm glad you got to see your father. I'm glad I got to meet him too, at least in a way.
<SignalRed>
I'm sorry I missed seeing your performance in court. It must have been something to watch when I wasn't on the receiving end.
<aceattorney>
The court battles were a little too easy in my dream.
[Then it's almost like he admitted something horrible, quickly rushing in to address that flaw.]
Not that I enjoy all the stress that's come from the cases you've seen me in!
But you know. I think I understand why you like to keep busy.
<SignalRed>
[Sarcasm? Taking what he can get? Neither? Both? Pick one.]
There's something to be said for a spirited battle, I've found.
<aceattorney>
In my dream world, it was like having Winston Payne's incompetence times 100 as the prosecutor. I guess it took my desire to help the innocent a little too seriously.
