Case #06. Wut.

[cantacquityou]

 

[One day, nearly a fortnight ago, Miles Edgeworth disappeared from Cair Paradisa to seek temporary, reclusive solace at a hotel in the City Royale. He alerted no one of this little vacation, and ceased all communication with everyone - be it through the journals, or otherwise...

...but he's back - however unintentionally - and not in any way he could have ever foreseen. His clothes - remnants of a white undershirt and reddish-pink pajama-bottoms - are in scorched tatters. 

In one hand, there's a 4.5 ft. baguette. In the other, a machine gun...A gumball machine gun.

...and with that, he is chasing a massive growlithe around the castle grounds. 

Perhaps you're one of the unfortunate souls to witness this. After all, there is a perfectly rational explanation.

...maybe.]

[He brings himself to his feet, and in the process, accidentally releases the safety on the machine gun. Almost immediately, the gun begins to uncontrollably spray gumballs all over the courtyard, the force of the machine jerking Edgeworth around like a poor ragdoll.]





GAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!








[...Oh, btw. Ever.]

[Jade enjoys the show until the gumball machine goes off and he ducks under the sill to avoid getting destroyed by the thing.]

[cantacquityou]

[It takes about three minutes until the machine has emptied itself completely. Seething, practically crazed and shaking from the ordeal, he flings the offending machine to the ground and yells at TEH TOP OF LUNGHS!!111


...At least you can have a year's supply of bubble gum?]

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

[Still ducked down, Jade looked around his room to see the damage.

Nothing big, a glass had been knocked over and there were little tiny gumballs everywhere but he and his room weren't too bad considering.]

[cantacquityou]

[Oh, look. He's gone. To alert more onlookers, no doubt.]

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

[A moment later, Jade peers back over the windowsill to look down into the yard where Edgeworth was. What in the world.]

[cantacquityou]

[I don't know. I really don't know. He calls again:]


...I take it you're enjoying the show.

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

[Jade looked around the room, then picked up a gumball and popped it into his mouth, crunching down and chewing on it. After that, he blew a bubble and let it pop before he wrote into the gold, hanging letters again.]

'Yes.'

[cantacquityou]

...Glad to provide your entertainment for the evening.



[That was sarcasm. Yes.]

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

'How kind!'

[cantacquityou]

...




...I hope you are aware that was sarcasm.

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

'Quite aware'

[cantacquityou]

...



Splendid. Now that you've been sufficiently entertained, would you mind returning the favour?

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

'Depends. I'm not the entertaining type.'

[cantacquityou]

I think it goes without saying that I could certainly use some clothes...




...Or a drink...




[mumbled]...Or some sympathy...

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

'I can supply the drink. I believe Paradisa has a bar I've yet to see. However, I think you could just wish for new clothes if you'd like.'

[From his vantage point, Jade can see he's too small for anything of his to fit on Edgeworth.

The last part Jade can't do; he didn't hear it and he just doesn't do sympathy.]

[cantacquityou]

[He thought about that, yes. But does the castle answer requests from all the way out here? He knows that such perks from the castle are not available in the City (he tested this, yes.)... After all, going inside the castle is the last thing he'd like to do at the moment.]


Do I not have to be inside for that to work?

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

[Jade disappears into his room to wish up some pajamas that are large and wraps them in twine a moment later.

A large ball of pink cloth comes flying at you, Edgeworth, and Jade seems to still be in his room.

You have pajamas, but do you want to wear them?]

K. Was NOT alerted of this. Alerts are failing me today. :/

[cantacquityou]

What in the name of--!!?


[DUCKS the flying pajamas]



Are you trying to kill me?!

XD

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

'It's a bundle of clothes. They're not hard or dangerous unless you're made of dandelions.'

<3~ XD

[cantacquityou]

[Oh. Seriously? S/he/it is helping me? He picks up the package and inspects it. Wow. It's uh...pretty gay pink. He unfolds it, glancing it up and down.]


My sincerest gratitude. However, if I am to wear this, I am inclined to believe that the drink is to come first...

|D <3

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

'You'll hav to come inside, then.'
