❮❮ 01; video. ❯❯

[The video feed flickers to life, revealing the face of a young man decidedly still in his late teens. He's calm enough, almost professional, and his words will be spoken with the deliberation of someone who's put some thought into what they're going to say.]

I'm going to bypass what I assume are the usual comments concerning the... inconvenience of being brought here. I'm sure I'm not the only one who was either in the middle of something important or simply has more pressing matters at "home", so there's little point in being redundant.

[All-in-all, he appears to be taking this alright. There's only the slightest twitch, a furrowing of the brow -- but to anyone who claims to know Light well, this is merely an indication that's he a lot more irritated than he's letting on. (Consider it a blessing that no one really knows Light all that well.) He continues.]

My name is Light Yagami; I was a first year college student in Japan before my arrival. I understand that there are shared residencies here... in that case, if you happen to be one of my housemates, I'd appreciate you letting me know. I'd like to familiarize myself with your names, faces, backgrounds, personalities and et cetera, just so I can get a sense of [what he's getting himself into] who I'm living with and what daily life is going to be like. Just out of curiosity.

Secondly -- and this is directed to anyone seeing this -- I'd like some advice as to how to adapt here. This is a - [a pause because the notion sounds ridiculous but here he is] reality that isn't my own, so as far as I know, down could be up and up could be down. Explanations of do's and don't's are welcome, as is just general information if that's all you have to contribute. And yes, I know I've already been given a summary of what's supposedly happening; it's just that I wouldn't mind getting second opinions, or just meeting the people here.

[He looks as if he's about to end it there, and then, as if remembering something:]

Oh, and is the calendar on this thing right? February 26th? It's almost my birthday again.

Anyway, thanks for your time.

Don't worry. I can take care of myself.

[That, unfortunately, is a tack that will never work with Edgeworth.

Unless you're a lady.

Sorry.]


Mr. Yagami, it is an unfortunate fact to which you will have to become accustomed: I am not a polite person.

[Edgeworth is quiet a moment, then lets out a quiet hmph.]

That determined to show me kindness, are you.
glassinine: (bowing)

Throwing your home open to some jobless layabout who's spent the past twenty minutes criticizing you mercilessly.

Yes, that's of course a human universal.

[personal profile] attractedtodarkness 2014-03-02 05:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. See you around.

[and her camera goes off]
glassinine: (confident)

[personal profile] glassinine 2014-03-02 05:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[Levelly:]

I do not.
glassinine: (trying to look cool)

[personal profile] glassinine 2014-03-02 05:22 pm (UTC)(link)
What is your job here, Mr. Yagami?
glassinine: (troubled)

[personal profile] glassinine 2014-03-02 05:29 pm (UTC)(link)
...I presume you will not want to stay in that position indefinitely.
glassinine: (troubled)

[personal profile] glassinine 2014-03-02 05:35 pm (UTC)(link)
To advance, you will need to have a strong standing in the eyes of the authorities here.
glassinine: (trying to look cool)

[personal profile] glassinine 2014-03-02 05:38 pm (UTC)(link)
...It is something that ought to be taken into account.
glassinine: (confident)

[personal profile] glassinine 2014-03-02 05:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Shall I quote those words back to you about my living situation?
glassinine: (troubled)

[personal profile] glassinine 2014-03-02 05:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Then therein lies the difference between us, I suppose.

Well, you'll make new friends here. You've already got one.
