[For anyone in the vicinity AKA First District of Somni, you might just notice a girl standing in front of that water park, talking excitedly into her Dreamberry.]

I can't believe there's a water park here! You know what this means? We gotta investigate that water park! [If you know what I mean. There's a mischievous lilt in her voice. "Investigate". Suuuuure. If by "investigate" she means "tear it up like there's no tomorrow and have the time of your life", then yes, let's investigate. One can tell she's grinning while speaking, even.]

That huge twisty slide looks really suspicious. I should investigate that first!

Oh. I guess I should tell them I'm not working for them anymore. I still can't believe I wasn't a thief for a while...

[prosecutes]

I wouldn't say that, necessarily. You remained a thief of the truth, did you not?

[dedikayted.livejournal.com]

...Yeah, I guess I did. Only...I wasn't really a thief.

[prosecutes]

You say that as though it's something utterly dreadful.

[dedikayted.livejournal.com]

Well, I can't imagine not being a thief!

[prosecutes]

Can you at least imagine the legal consequences of actually stealing something?

[dedikayted.livejournal.com]

But I'm not gonna steal just anything! Only the truth!

[prosecutes]

That's fine, as long as it really is limited in such a way.

[dedikayted.livejournal.com]

Besides, I doubt I'd be able to steal an entire water slide.

[prosecutes]

It would be nigh-impossible, even for a professional thief.

[Please don't take that as a challenge.]

[dedikayted.livejournal.com]

Well, I don't have the gear I need yet, for one thing. [Too late.] And I dunno where to hide it.

[prosecutes]

Where could you even obtain such gear?

[dedikayted.livejournal.com]

I'll ask around if anyone has stolen a water slide before! But I think I'd need to steal a pool too...

[prosecutes]

You are not stealing either one of those things!

[dedikayted.livejournal.com]

Okay, okay! Calm down, Mr. Edgeworth! Can't you take a joke?

[...but she DOES sort of want to steal them if she can't pay the entrance fee.]

[prosecutes]

I am not highly fond of jokes made regarding criminal activities.

[Just get Edgeworth to pay it somehow, he's rich anyway.]

[dedikayted.livejournal.com]

[OH SHE WILL.]

But it really was only a joke! Anyway, are you coming with me to investigate?

[prosecutes]

I trust that you can handle this investigation on your own.

[dedikayted.livejournal.com]

Don't they always say two heads are better than one? It'll be fun! [No, she is not cooking up a scheme to push Edgeworth into a swimming pool. What makes you think that?]

[prosecutes]

[That's okay, he's got enough excuses to fill a briefcase.]

It's a work day.

[dedikayted.livejournal.com]

Can't you take a day off?

[prosecutes]

Not without good reason.

[dedikayted.livejournal.com]

Then tell them you're going on an investigation!

[CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.]

[prosecutes]

I will not lie to get out of work.

[dedikayted.livejournal.com]

But it's really an investigation! And you could pay our entrance fees!
