[#2 - Video/Text/Action] Hey look! I managed to travel without freezing.

[this time, it seems that Apollo has actually meant to turn on the gear as the shot focuses on his face suddenly.]

Um, well, okay. Hi everyone! I guess I finally made it somewhere.

[he grins a little, but he's also shivering quite a bit.]

It's really cold out, and I had a hard time keeping fires going. But at least I made it here! To, uh...

[Byrne would've simply skipped over this feed if the kid hadn't mentioned two particular words that caught the prosecutor's attention - court record. And now there's this biting curiosity about who this kid is and where he's from, just from hearing those two words.]

Pardon the sudden question here, but uh. You wouldn't happen to be a lawyer, would you?

[is_fine]

[oh my gosh, somebody who actually cares about him being a lawyer! BEST! swings the camera a little to show off his attorney's badge (which he is still wearing for some reason...)]

I am, actually! My name's Apollo Justice!

[video]

[corvus_veritas]

[....Be prepared for a slightly disappointed look when Byrne notices the defense attorney's badge you got there, Apollo. Hate to break it to ya, but this fellow's somewhat-biased against defense attorneys. Don't fret though! The disappointed look only lasts for a moment before he's back to normal, friendly Byrne.]

Nice to meet you, Mr. Justice. I'm prosecutor Byrne Faraday. [There is no badge show-and-tell here, however.]

Where're you from, if you don't mind me asking? [Byrne's got a baaaad feeling it's L.A...]

[video]

[is_fine]

[doesn't notice the look. is too busy being extra proud of himself for being pegged as a lawyer.]

It's nice to meet you too, Mr. Faraday. [though, doesn't seem to mind that Byrne is a prosecutor really.]

Oh, um. I'm from California.

[vague enough.]

[video]

[corvus_veritas]

[Crap crap crap crap crap.] Los Angeles, by chance?

[video]

[is_fine]

[blinks.]

Yeah! ... how did you know?

[maybe a little weirded out.]

[video]

[corvus_veritas]

[FFFFFF] Lucky guess.

I'm also from L.A. I've run into quite a few people that's where we're from. Mostly lawyers.

[video]

[is_fine]

[oh gosh, he's from L.A. too? dang, talk about coincidences. or not. Apollo, stop being so dumb.]

That's... kind of weird... I mean, that we'd all be lawyers...

[video]

[corvus_veritas]

Isn't it? Out of all the people that could've ended up here from L.A., you'd think there'd be a little more variety. [Now now, Byrne, no conspiracy theories.]

Hm. Now that I think of it, I remember talking to another defense attorney on my first day here. [Give him a second to remember. Ahh yes, that guy.] Phoenix Wright's his name. I don't suppose you've heard of him, being a defense attorney yourself?

[video]

[is_fine]

[almost splutters. almost.]

You've talked to Mr. Wright?? I mean, I found out he was here, but... I thought he was...

[trails off awkwardly. ugh. clears his throat and tries to sound professional, dammit.]

I mean, yes. I know Mr. Wright.

[video]

[corvus_veritas]

[Blinks. Multiple times. Er. Not the reaction he was expecting, honestly.]

You thought he was what?

[video]

[is_fine]

[hnnngh, looks mildly bashful.]

Iris said he was in a coma... that's why I haven't gotten to talk to him yet.

[video]

[corvus_veritas]

A coma?

[Aww, doesn't that suck? Oh yeah, didn't someone say something about that already...Byrne forgets at the moment.]

I'm sorry about that.

[video]

[is_fine]

Yeah... but she said he'd be okay! So I'm not really worried.

[shrugs a little.]

[video]

[corvus_veritas]

I've heard that something's been going around like that. People going into random comas and then waking up a short time later. I don't know all the details, but I do know that everyone who's been affected by it wakes up just fine.

In any case, I'm sure he'll be alright.

[video] -- SORRY FOR THE LATE RESPONSE!

[is_fine]

[nods a little and rubs the back of his head.]

Yeah.

[clears his throat.]

S-so have you been here for very long?
