[There's a bit of button mashing but Brenda doesn't take long to figure the phone out. It's not too drastically different to the cellphones back home at least. Which is something of some small comfort. Little, (mostly) familiar things around this strange Heropa place. When the video feed starts, she shifts back a bit more, giving a nervous wave of sorts.]

Uh. Hey? I know some of you might already know Jaime, so I'll just. Introduce myself as his friend. I'm Brenda. Completely new here and totally not....way out of my depth. At all. Nope.

[Yes, that was totally sarcasm. And hey, for Brenda, since she isn't yet yelling or punching anyone? She's taking all of this remarkably well, actually.]

I mean, I'm used to the whole...superhero thing. I mean, you know, we had them back home. Just....I wasn't exactly one myself. So me actually having powers? That's new. I guess I should be glad I have him around, at least one familiar face in all of this crazy. I don't suppose anyone else knows much about the powers? How they work? I'm going to need to practice, I figure. But with this er, super strength? I don't want to like, accidentally hurt someone or break something while doing it? But I figure it's best to at least try learn to control it.

[There's a sigh, a hand running through her hair as she considers and pouts for a moment. There are only a million questions she has, but Jaime has already been a huge help with that.]

I don't suppose the whole school thing? The work we do here will cross over back home?

[Yeah. Brenda would ask something like that. Study nerd that she is, aspiring lawyer and all. Of course. Though balancing that and her hero thing here will be much more difficult. She'll be getting something of a better idea on what poor Jaime has been going through now.]

I can imagine at least one if not both of Jaime and Paco would probably do the same, yeah.

[But oh no. No she is not thinking of Paco then going around imitating Mr T all day with that ability. Nope.]

Parrots are usually pretty talkative though, right? I wonder why it would be that specific with the type of bird?

I think I can answer that by introducing myself. I'm Kay Faraday, the Great Thief Yatagarasu - and the Yatagarasu is a three-legged crow.

A three-legged crow? Okay that's. New.

[Because don't birds have two legs?]

It's not real but it's a legend and a symbol of truth and justice. And I keep it alive!

Oh. Right. That makes more sense. I guess I don't know too much about some legends and things overseas. But that seems pretty appropriate for someone in law, the meaning behind it. I like it.

The previous members of the Yatagarasu were with the law, too. It's only me now, but I'm still keeping an eye out for potential recruits.

Yeah? I'd like to try help. I mean, I'm still in high school back home, but I want to study law once I graduate.

[Which. Is obviously something of a work in progress here, given any progress she makes is null back home.]

Really? You're gonna be a lawyer? That's great! [She sounds very impressed and interested and excited. Well, she knows lawyers, and the majority of them are usually good people. Right?]

That's the idea. The goal once I graduate, at least. Yup. Jaime mentioned he knows someone who was one back home. I'd appreciate any tips or help, really. I know the study is....a lot. But I reckon it'd be worth it.

[Helping people like that. And the money isn't bad either.]

There are other lawyers around here, if you'd like to ask them a thing or two. I could even introduce you! Brenda, right?

You would? That would actually be awesome! Yeah, it's Brenda. I'd owe you big time if you could help like this, Kay!

Just contact Miles Edgeworth. He's a bigshot prosecutor. I'm pretty sure Simon Blackquill is another.

We might even run into each other in the courthouse! I'm a juror-in-training at Teen Court.

Miles and Simon. Got it.

Yeah? I'd like to come visit at least, if I can.

You should! It's great we have one. What job did you get?

Ah, helping teach martial arts. At least I learned aikido back home. Even if I've never actually taught it before.

Hey, that's a pretty good gig! I'm sure you'll do a good job.
