[Luck clears his throat as the post begins, unaccustomed to such machines. His only previous experience being with a cell phone, the video and network are entirely new things to him. His expression is all business, though it's clear he isn't exactly pleased to be here.I suppose I can save you all the trouble of answering the same questions that new

[He drops the seal in his excitement, then hurriedly scoops it back up.]
LUCK!

[He pretends to look offended, but can't keep his smile from shining through.]
...And that's all ya got for me? No 'happy ta' see you?'
[ooc: Sorry, I couldn't restrain myself.]

I suppose I can muster up some enthusiasm for you, Firo.
It's certainly good to see familiar faces after all this time, after all.
How have you been?
[[ ooc: no it's okay! /wasn't complaining ahahaha I just felt bad for leaving you guys hanging at first. ]]

How 'bout you? Last I left we still had that problem with those outta-towners.

I believe I had just settled that problem back home before leaving. [Meaning he passed out but chances are good that it ended in their favor.]
If you mean the matter with the Runorata family.
What exactly is the last thing you remember, Firo?
Reply
Nah, this was another one. Those Chicago kids?
[He smiles]
You did end the Runurata problem, though, last year. From what the others told me, pretty stylishly, too.
What I remember last... [he winces] ...Kinda got into a fight with Isaac and Miria.

[Luck blinks, but otherwise remains unaffected. This is the first he's heard of anything beyond his own time, technological advances aside.]
Chicago kids?
I hope you don't mean we get involved with a family from that far.
Aah. That, yes, it was quite the incident.
Was it anything serious?

Was it serious..?
[He takes a moment to think about it. It's rather serious to him, but maybe not in the grand scheme of things..?]
...Not really.

[At least the fact that Prohibition was going to end was not a shock.]
That's good then.
Though I'm afraid it's obvious that we're from different points in time.
[[ ooc: Times like these, I really wish they had all of The Grand Punk Railroad arc translated on baka-tsuki to fill in more than what's in the anime. :I ]]

Funny how that works... What year is it for you?
[ooc: Oh gosh, me too. :( ]

It isn't unusual that even people from the same world are brought from different times. It seems to be how these places operate.
1932. The very beginning of the year to be exact.
And you?

Wow... That's a while ago. It was September 1933.

Aah. That is quite the difference. Though it's technically been months since I've seen Manhattan.
Prohibition is really ending then, hm?
Is there anything else I should know about the future, Firo?
[It isn't too surprising, though he had originally thought that Edgeworth was bluffing about it being so soon.]
Reply
That really sucks, pal.
Anything else..?
[He grins]
You know that girl with the swords Claire fought against in the Runorata incident? Well, accordin' ta' Berga, she works for you guys now. Apparently she never shuts up and breaks a lotta stuff.

[Well, good job Firo, you've hit him with something that he genuinely never expected. Luck's mouth drops into a slight frown. Not that she wasn't skilled enough, or that he wouldn't hire her. But--]
Is that so? I wonder how we came to that decision.
Do you happen to remember her name?
