Beeeeeeeeeeeep.
The number you have dialed is no longer in service.

[ It's been awhile since this message reached Miles Edgeworth's ear. But while he was now very much aware that this was a frequent occurrence, he never expected to hear it from this gear.

... A sick feeling settling in his stomach - but you can't be gone you just went to go get that

What.

[one could say Godot was so angry he couldn't see straight, but...well.]

[miniworth]

[ Godot's reply is a slight bit confusing... but Miles will answer. ]

He's gone.

whoops, [text]

[amargo_sombra]

That's impossible. What do you mean he's 'gone', people don't just vanish into thin air!

[Someone doesn't talk to many people, can you tell?]

s'okay! [text]

[miniworth]

We appeared out of thin air into this world; what makes you say it's impossible the other way around?

It is possible, in this world. Phoenix Wright has returned home, like many others do.

[philanthrotaku]

Phoenix...really?

I'm sorry, Miles--are you going to be alright?

[text; /crushed under the nao :|a ]

[miniworth]

His number is disconnected.

I'll [ Be fine? Probably. Miles is used, after that last November-December period, to people going home from Johto. And loss? Loss isn't new either.

There was just so much he wanted to say and ask. ]

I'll be fine.

[philanthrotaku]

...just like my father's and Raven's.

Are you sure? If you want to talk about anything, I'll listen if you need me to.

[text; /definitely crushed with love <3]

[miniworth]

It happens, to every gear that belongs to someone who goes home.

... I wanted to ask him a question.

[text; fuuuu- eleven knew him too please don't eat me for the spam]

[usedreturn]

I'm sorry. I really, really am.

[text; I... I like spam though. ]

[miniworth]

Thank you, Doctor.

But he'll be fine, and so will I. It's not like he's dead.

[text; ;; <3 ]

[usedreturn]

No, of course he isn't. But he's not here, and...well, if it were me I'd be a bit distressed over that fact.

[text; ]

[miniworth]

I am upset, but I guess it still hasn't sunk in yet.

[recrimination]

[Because would she honestly use text--]

Phoenix Wright... the name does not appear to ring a bell. [... can you tell she's great with remembering people?]

video.

[miniworth]

[ ... so kind, Franziska-- but Miles doesn't even know you know him. ]

He's from our future.

video.

[recrimination]

Our future? And did you happen to discover how far along in the future he was from?

video.

[miniworth]

I think.. 2017.

text; how am I later than franziska :|

[usedrage]

[How do you deal with people disappearing? Ken still doesn't know how to get over it. Or help ;;]

I get off work soon. Do you want to meet me at that restaurant?

text; ...idk

[miniworth]

[ Miles isn't sure how upset he is over this - if he is at all, right now at least. It's an odd feeling to lose the person who said you were his best friend, in the past, in your future, and to be left with unanswered questions and uncertainty. ]

That sounds fine. I'll be there in a few minutes.

[usedrage]

I'll pay tonight.

[miniworth]

... Thanks.

[ And in a few minutes, he'll be at the restaurant, sitting on the bench in front of it and swinging his legs. ]
