[ Her "scoops." A reporter, then... ]

You've been investigating this place?

[she spins her pen pridefully]

Sss, sss, sss. I've been poking around a fair bit.

Name's Myriam Scuttlebutt. Senior at Themis Legal Academy, and top reporter for the Themis Herald, the school newspaper.

[ Hm. That's a very good school. ]

A pleasure, Ms. Scuttlebutt. Miles Edgeworth.

What have you observed of note?

Sss, sss, sss. You want the inside info on one of my scoops?

Actually, I thought you were going to be a solid lead. You were walking around like you were looking for something. Like you had a purpose...

[personal profile] ergomaniac 2014-08-30 09:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Hm.

[ Well, at least I did look the part, even if I haven't the faintest idea what to do next... ]

Perhaps I do.

Sss, sss, sss, sss! It's still in the "speculation" stage. But, hey, even that can make a good story.

So besides the ballot, and that we, most of us anyway, haven't actually been arrested... "conspiracy for mass-kidnapping" seems to be the most likely solution.

Sss, sss, sss. Do you agree?

[personal profile] ergomaniac 2014-08-30 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
...I agree that there is evidence of significant misconduct in this institution.

Sss, sss, sss! Oh, that's good. Nice and succinct. Can I quote you?

[personal profile] ergomaniac 2014-08-30 09:40 pm (UTC)(link)
You may.

Have you looked into the identity of the warden?

Sss! Whoever it is, they're a megalomaniac! Criminally deviant! Mad with power!

Sss, sss, sss. They abuse their authority and have such disregard for rules that they even mutilate those of the English language.

[personal profile] ergomaniac 2014-08-30 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
...Yes. Their missives were...painful to read.

I'm no criminal psychologist but it seems to me their personality is warped beyond belief. Cold, calculating... maybe even inhuman.

Sss, sss, sss, sss...

[personal profile] ergomaniac 2014-08-30 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Well. Regardless. There's no question that they've questions indeed to answer.

[personal profile] cardboard_journalism 2014-08-30 10:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Sss, sss, sss...

Well, they've obviously gathered us here for some sort of... purpose.

Though it frightens me to think about it.

[personal profile] ergomaniac 2014-08-30 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
And divided us into "teams."

[personal profile] cardboard_journalism 2014-08-30 10:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Sss, sss, sss! That's another thing! What was the purpose of dividing us like that? Is a game of capture-the-flag going to be held after the popularity contest, you think?
