First entry...like, in a while, I guess?

[chevrolady]

I guess it's been a while since I've updated, but there hasn't been all that much to talk about. I've finally stopped sleeping with a pillow over my head so I don't hear the cars outside my cell window at night. It still ticks me off, but there's nothing I can do about it. Wright said I lost my face and my sister, but he should have mentioned that

I didn't realize that prisoners were allowed access to the internet, much less personal journals.

You know the Fey family?

[chevrolady]

Yep. Lucky me, right? Some of the head honchos around here actually encourage it. It's probably part of some sort of secret study or therapy or something. As long as I can still discuss my passion with at least a few people who get it, I'm a-okay. It's not like I need money anymore.

Let's just say I know them so well that I wish I never did. We had a bit of business that didn't go exactly as planned, and...well.

[agent_andrews]

Well, it makes sense from the perspective of rehabilitation. I wish we had had access to these when I was serving my sentence.

That must have been some bad business. They seemed to have made it out all right, though.

[chevrolady]

An upstanding woman like you, locked up in here? Now I'm curious. (Well, appearances can be deceiving.) I don't think you missed too much. I dunno for sure but I'm sure everything we do here is monitored. You're back on the outside, as they say, right? So congrats.

Pfft, those Feys have the luck of the devil. Hell, they've probably got him on speed dial with all that channeling mumbo-jumbo they do.

Hey pal, you don't sound one bit sorry for what you did. Aren't you guys supposed to be repenting while in prison or something?

[chevrolady]

I can assure you, "pal," I'm not. I've got nothing to feel sorry for, except maybe being caught. That slimeball Grey and I both wouldn't have ended up where we are if he hadn't treated his employees like they weren't fit to lick the dirt off his overpriced shoes. He got what was coming to him, and as a plus my old coworkers don't have to deal with him anymore. I consider killing him a "public service."

Come to think of it, don't those prosecutors you serve so loyally treat you like trash? You should know what it's like, then! Especially the one with the whip. What nerve, I should press charges for her assaulting me in court. And maybe as I side bonus I could have her job. She failed to find me innocent, after all.

Don't go badmouthing Mr. Edgeworth and Ms. von Karma! Without them, criminals like you would be free to run around in the streets as they please!

Ms. von Karma's whip might sting, but you probably deserved it! We all deserve it! She doesn't whip you unless there's a good reason.

[duck_gimshoe]

Er, well usually. Because sometimes I think she just does it when she's in a bad mood...but that's my fault too for standing there at the wrong place at the wrong time.

[young_maiden]

Hmph! Another rotten youngster wilting away in prison. You whippersnappers ought to learn a thing or two about respect and decency!

[chevrolady]

Please, Grandma. The only difference between the bad guys in your time and the bad guys is mine is that my generation's criminals prefer subtlety rather than simply kicking open doors of banks, robbing everyone and running. Me, I didn't feel the need to turn my personal crime scene into a bloodbath. I used to take care of people who were hurt, ya know.

Speaking of subtlety...

[young_maiden]

Don't be ridiculous! How can you have a crime scene without blood? What did you do, murder an alien from outer space?!

Listen, missy, back in MY day young girls wore all their laces up so tight you'd be lucky to be able to breathe, let alone kick down a door! We learned to be so subtle we were silent and did nothing but blush and stand around looking beautiful! That's what's wrong with your generation, these days it's all about being loose and free and thinking how clever you are and now the result is hordes of stuck-up bratty delinquents just like you!

[chevrolady]

Look, all I meant was that I didn't feel I had to kill a bunch of innocent bystanders like all those guys in the Mafia and stuff did. They used to kill EVERYBODY. Like, talk about going overboard.

And that's why I'm glad corsets are out of date. Well, while I can agree girls getting giggly and obnoxious and loud over men is annoying, I have a hard time believing you were ever so silent that you did nothing but stand around and look pretty. Not that I blame you, women aren't wall flowers. You don't have to be one, or alternatively, dress like a dime store trollop if you want to be noticed. Me, I was blessed with a pretty ample figure. Getting noticed isn't too hard if you, like, work with what you have.

[nosugar_nomilk]

As far as I know, that woman is locked up where she can't hurt anyone else.

And as for you, don't you talk about your betters like that. That little girl has more intelligence in a single hair than you do in your whole head.

Complaining about being bored? This place isn't here for your entertainment. You should be thinking about what you've done, coming to understand why you're here and what you did wrong. I guess that's too much to ask for from someone like you.

I can't stand people who won't own up to their mistakes.

[chevrolady]

Ooh, so defensive. Let me guess, you're familiar with the Feys too? Well let me tell you something that I learned from living as my sister: plenty of people in history believed disturbing the dead for personal gain is wrong, and that's why people interested in the occult were treated like freaks. If those jokers really are bringing back the dead, it's only natural that their boat would keep sinking into a sea of trouble. I did my research, and I wasn't the start of it

[nosugar_nomilk]

Defensive? I've got no reason to defend myself.

I wasn't a prosecutor. I was a defense attorney. Maybe you've got me confused with someone else.

You've got a lot to say for yourself, don't you? All I hear is a lot of excuses, like so much hot air rising from the surface of a particularly bad cup of coffee.

I don't disagree with you where Morgan Fey is concerned. But you know how you could have gotten that young woman to thank you? If you'd turned yourself in and exposed her mother for what she was. Getting caught out doesn't count as a good deed, no matter how you spin it, and there's never a good reason for murder.

[chevrolady]

Really? My bad then. The information isn't always reliable around here.

Maybe, if she'd been any direct concern of mine. In the end all the "good guys" got their little happy ending, so why should I feel bad? People who didn't suspect Grey of framing me for a certain malpractice called me a killer long before I fired any gun or picked up any knife. My mother probably thinks I killed my sister on purpose. Whether or not I deserve it, I've gotten used to the title by now. But all the deaths that "I'm" responsible for, including Grey's, would never have happened if Grey hadn't made it his life's goal to torture his own workers. And that's no excuse, it's a fact.

[knights_edge]

Don't you think that advertising your possession of a makeshift weapon in a public forum is rather foolhardy?

[chevrolady]

Well, whaddya' know. So you're this "Edgeworth" guy I've been hearing about lately. This detective I've been talking to seems to be quite a big fan of yours. Gumshoe, that's it. He says you're the king of prosecutors.

Guess you've got a point there. Whoops.

[knights_edge]

That detective is prone to saying quite a deal of useless things.

Enjoy your body search.

[chevrolady]

Yeah I noticed.

Hmm, if anyone in this prison looks half as handsome as you, I don't think I'd mind. O_~
