[The thing about employing text is that when you start using it when all your broadcasts are in video, people tend to question why you've suddenly switched. So he makes the decision to instead compose himself as best as he can and use video instead.
Unfortunately, he always sort of overestimates his ability to compose himself. He certainly doesn't seem distraught, or panicked, or anything of the sort, but he's definitely shaky. This is definitely a far cry from his normal, slow, quiet, lengthy broadcasts.]
I'm leaving on a business trip abroad for...some length of time. I'm - not certain how long. Please don't try to contact me; I'll be far too busy to answer any messages.
Good day.

Phoenix sits down at a bus stop bench nearby. ]
Those are some words I've said and heard before. None of us knew how to control our powers without practice. [ And if he knows Edgeworth, practice is likely the furthest thing from what he's been doing. ] Hiding yourself away in some corner of the world isn't going to help, you know that.
no subject
Wright, you know what I do. I make people...miserable. With just a touch. So it's different for us. Fires can be put out, but this...This is something that destroys people.
There will be no practicing. There will be no taking risks. I'm going where there's no risk of hurting anyone.
1/2
2/2
My point is, there's nowhere you can go where you can't possibly hurt someone. Even if there was, do you really plan to stay there for the rest of your life? Don't be stupid, Edgeworth.
no subject
I plan to stay there as long as possible. Think about it, Wright. What happens if Trucy sees me on the street and comes over to give me a hug? Or if I bump into someone on the street? The streets are crowded in Heropa. I need to be somewhere where no one knows me, and where the population density is lower. And I need to stay there until this...stops.
no subject
There are plenty of telepaths here and people with mind powers who can help you learn how to control it.
It's not going to stop. [ Even if it did, it'd only be a temporary reprieve. ] Maybe for a little while, but not for good.

[ Maybe it seems like one to him, but there's no way Phoenix can accept it. ]
no subject
no subject
But it still isn't any kind of long term solution.
So this is Phoenix stewing in silence for a few seconds. ]
... What about the program for new imPorts?
no subject
I'll keep working on it long-distance.
no subject
Where are you planning to go? [ Pause. ] Don't tell me you're actually going to Canada.
no subject
[ Edgeworth speaks quietly. ]
Which isn't just about the remoteness. Canada is a close neighbor and a close ally to the United States; I want to go and get some sort of idea of how they stand in this conflict. After all, if it comes to all-out war...We have children here, and I wouldn't count on them being excused from the fight. I do want to seek out someplace they could flee to.
[ With a bit of weary dryness: ]
I'd like to at least put all of this foolishness to use.
no subject
War is war... I don't know how much we can count on another country to take in who knows how many refugees. Even Canada. [ And frankly from what he's seen, he's not certain the children in question would even cooperate with being sent away. ]
But that's the worst case scenario. It might not come to that.
no subject
[ Though it must be admitted that Edgeworth spends a great deal more time on the preparing part than on the hoping part. Take, for example, the current circumstance. ]
I'll let you know what the situation is once I get there. You might be quite right; it might be thoroughly unsuitable.
no subject
Anyways... I expect to hear back from you regularly, or I'll get Trucy to start pulling your stuff back out of her hat. [ Starting with his cravat, right off his neck. ] You know she can and will.
no subject
Is that a threat?
no subject
Think of it more like a promise.
no subject
[ For just a moment a very small, small smile. Then it's gone. ]
Stay safe, Wright. I'm counting on you.
no subject
You know me... I always stay out of trouble. [ Hah... haha... ]
