[ in the park letting the monkey go to town on the playground in the hope that he will use up his energy and stop trying to steal cars
simon glances over when he sees alex out of the corner of his eye — her hair is pretty distinctive! — and tentatively raises a hand in an awkward little wave. ]
um ok i'm just going to copy/paste what i already sent to jonas because it's like a lot
[ and neither he nor i want to type this out a second time. ]
it was like we woke up in some weird mansion where we were each? compelled??? to pick up one of these colored eggs that were set out in front of us and then we just split up and started looking around the rooms since we had no idea what else to do and there were uh... a lot more eggs everywhere for some reason but also we started finding this creepy stuff like this woman's diary about her missing kid and bloody clothes
then monika actually found the woman who wrote that stuff just like, in the bath?? and she started coming after us so we ran upstairs and hid so i guess she went to the basement where gerard and fei du were instead and attacked them down there? anyway her husband had turned into like this huge axe hand monster guy who was hiding in a painting and when we eventually regrouped in the garage to try to leave the painting was there and he came out and fought everyone
and uh we found the kid dead in the trunk of the car
and then the mom found us again and attacked us instead of her husband who'd actually killed him and it was a whole thing and she ended up dying eventually we all got in the car and broke out of the garage in it but then we just immediately ended up in a lake and had to abandon the car and swim while stuff kept trying to pull us down
finally we got to the other side and there were more eggs and then we went into this building that was also an egg
And also... Okay, so same question, about about the detention center...? [ she is usually much nosier about stuff, but this time does add a: ] If you want to tell me.
Well, the warden there was like, super into animal therapy, so she hired the circus to come do an animal show for the prisoners once a month. So I'd always do all the stage setup in the courtyard and everything.
And, uh... w-well, I didn't actually do anything bad, and they let me go eventually after Mr. Edgeworth proved who the real killer was! But, um, I had gotten arrested 'cause they thought I murdered someone. M-my best friend.
It feels kind of pathetic that I died so soon after him, after I told everyone I was gonna work hard to be the best wild animal tamer I could be for his sake. I barely improved at all.

no subject
Oh well. Most important thing is that everyone made it back.
week 3, tuesday
he's just lightly touching one of the bars of an empty cell upstairs and looking into it kind of absently. ]
no subject
... Kind of spooky.
no subject
Ah—! Y-yeah, it... is, a little. It's a lot different from the prison I'm usually in.
[ not the... best way he could have phrased that, probably ]
no subject
Why're you in prison?
no subject
...W-well. I guess I was kind of almost in there once, but that was just the detention center...
no subject
And also... Okay, so same question, about about the detention center...? [ she is usually much nosier about stuff, but this time does add a: ] If you want to tell me.
no subject
And, uh... w-well, I didn't actually do anything bad, and they let me go eventually after Mr. Edgeworth proved who the real killer was! But, um, I had gotten arrested 'cause they thought I murdered someone. M-my best friend.
no subject
Oh. Uh... Sorry. About your best friend. I can't even imagine...
[ well that's a lie and she can imagine, but. whatever. ]
no subject
...Sorry, I know that's a really big downer instead of like... a fun crime story or something...
