Wait, so you didn't go through my closet?

[yatagarasu]

Uh...no? [She sounds very certain, bordering on sarcastic.] Why would I?

[There are many reasons for her to root through his closet but it just so happens that she chose not to.]

[takethestairs]

...Kay. Did anyone else go into my apartment while I was gone?

[yatagarasu]

There was no one in there when I dropped in.

...

I dunno.

[takethestairs]

[Sighs]

I'll figure it out soon enough. Thank you for taking care of the food, at least.

[yatagarasu]

Whoever they are, they didn't leave any clues! And actually I didn't really poke around that much.

[takethestairs]

[Oh. Well. Good.]

Or they came in after you did. But I'll worry about that later - there's something else I want to discuss with you, first.

[yatagarasu]

Hmm? [What could be more important than figuring out who barged into his house and took his stuff?] What is it?

[takethestairs]

I don't need to tell you how dangerous this place can be, Kay. It's chaotic, unpredictable, and when bad fortune befalls someone, we often don't find out until it's too late.

[yatagarasu]

...

Yeah, I kinda picked up on that already...a lot of people have.

[takethestairs]

Well...perhaps it might be in our best interests to stick closer together in the future. There's safety in numbers, as they say, and it will give us both one less thing to worry about during the next crisis we face.

[Not if they're in danger, when.]

[yatagarasu]

You got a point, but we're not always together. We live in different parts of Heropa, I have school and Teen Court, and you have work...then again, it's summer so I have more time to be your assistant...

[takethestairs]

I don't exactly need an assistant, Kay. Besides, I was thinking about sticking together outside of work.

[yatagarasu]

You mean we gotta find each other right away whenever something goes down?

[takethestairs]

That's one thing we can do. [And one thing they probably should do, come to think of it] But I was thinking of something a little more consistent.

[geeze Edgeworth just spit it out already]

[yatagarasu]

...Are you gonna chaperone me wherever I go or something?

[She sounds skeptical.]
