Two - Turnabout Reopening [video]

[ace_attorney]

(You know, for all the oddness that came with that time warp thing, it definitely fulfilled one of my college wishes: to have extra time to study for my exam. So I guess I shouldn't complain.)

[Phoenix clears his throat, then activates the video. He's sitting behind his desk at his rather vacant-looking law offices.]

Hi, everyone. This is Phoenix Wright... Thanks to everyone who helped me when I got here last month. I guess I'm settling in a little bit, for better or for worse. Again. If you knew me from before, I'm sorry, but I don't remember most of you. It's, uh, nothing personal. I'd actually like to talk to as many of you as are out there... to kind of see what "I've" been up to before, if anything.

As far as further news goes... I guess coming on the heels of the last post, it's as appropriate a time as any to mention that Wright & Co. Law Offices are open for business again for anyone who needs a defense attorney.

I do need one, actually. But not for me.

[ace_attorney]

Oh? For whom?

[fightswithpurpose]

One of the other Espada, Szayel Aporro Granz. He is in prison right now. He used his phone call privilege to contact me.

It's good to hear you're settling in, Mr. Wright. We were mostly acquainted through work, so there hasn't been that much to catch up on.

Er, Maya says you still haven't found a place to stay. Are you really sleeping at the office?

[ace_attorney]

That's fine, Ms. Katsuragi. It might still be nice to know what we worked on together, but it's not all that important, I guess.

As for the office... Uh... Well, it's not all that bad, really.

(Maya....... I don't think talking about that kind of thing really helps me get clients!)

Well, you've heard of the Newcomer Political Party, right? Your job was helping to manage the Newcomer's fund, so I mostly knew you through that.

I've seen your office, you know. It's not exactly... well, I don't think that couch can be all that good for your back, that's all.

[He's sipping coffee on his couch. Stoic as ever, the look on his face is impossible to read without view of his eyes.]

Passed the bar then, did you?

[ace_attorney]

Yeah. Yesterday, in fact.

[beenwaitinglong]

Ha...! Well now. Congratulations.

I guess this means I get another chance to see you in action.

[acemedium]

[So Maya's in the office with him, finishing up some paperwork for Edgeworth and getting ready to break out some baked goods she's saved to celebrate him passing the bar. The post, though, makes her pause]

Why do you want to know that stuff, Nick?

[Action]

[ace_attorney]

...Well, wouldn't you want to know what "you'd" been up to if you didn't remember?

(I hear that's what college students do on Saturday mornings all the time.)

Well, I don't need a defense attorney for a case of my own, but I would appreciate some clarification on some licensing and contracts I have been considering.

My name is Iroh, I am a manager at Brooke's, a restaurant and music store. Would you be able to assist me?

[ace_attorney]

Well, I'm not an expert, but I can handle the basics, Mr. Iroh.

[thelightbringer]

What cases do you defend?

[Video//Private//Unhackable]

[ace_attorney]

Well, criminal cases... I'm a trial lawyer. But I'm willing to look at any case where there's a client in need.

[cowboycop]

Congratulations, Mister Wright. Big accomplishment 'round these parts. Newcomer lawyers an' cops are hard to come by as it is, like water in the desert.

Reckon that means you got the whole place all cleaned up and the like?

[ace_attorney]

(...Well, the toilet's clean, anyway.)

T-Thanks. Yeah, it's mostly cleaned up around here.

[Speaking of Von Karma...]

You managed to pass the bar? Hmph. I'll be seeing you in court then, relatively soon.

[Video; Private Filter]

[ace_attorney]

(...I hope not.)

...Just so you know, I won't stand for any of your tricks with evidence or witnesses, von Karma.

[Naruto's staring, his expression a mix of caution and sympathy]

Don't worry 'bout it. Happens to a lot of people. This place likes to fuck with you.

[video]

[ace_attorney]

Yeah, I'm sure it does... But I still need to catch up, one way or another.

[herausgesucht]

I remember you. You're Mr. Edgeworth's friend, right?

video;

[ace_attorney]

Yes, that's right. Did we know each other, then, Miss...?

[video]

[rapturescreed]

Congratulations, Mr. Wright. It's a very good day indeed when there are more lawyers that are Newcomers.

[ace_attorney]

Thanks, Mr. Creed... I'm ready to do my best, as well.
