[Action]

[She remembers falling asleep on the couch of the Wright Anything Agency. She and Apollo had been studying notes for a case since that afternoon, it was well into the night and he'd passed out moments before she did.

Where she woke up reminds her more of the Space Center, but she would recognize if she were there. No, this is an entirely different place, and judging by the weight on her chest she'll have a panic attack if she doesn't...no, no, that's a box. Phew!

Box added to court record!

Okay, a pamphlet, a walkie-talkie and a necklace...and according to the pamphlet she has to wear it.]

This could get complicated. I can't exactly stuff Widget into my pocket...

[Video]

[Eventually, she does put the necklace on, trying to keep it from tangling with Widget's cord. Soon she has the video function working, and is making her first attempt to communicate with this place.]

Er, hi! My name's Athena Cykes, and I'm a defense attorney. I'm new here, so...I guess I need to find a place to live, and a job. Where's the law office in Genessia? I don't have my portfolio with me, but I can write one up!

Most people here settle their legal disputes with weapons.

[Athena shudders visibly, an angry look crossing her face]

Well, that's not right! Where I come from, that kind of thing is punishable by incarceration-it's why we have courts of law!

[unhappy]

That's great, but most of the 'you did it!' here seems to be the biggest piece of evidence anyone uses as an excuse for locking people up and throwing away the key to begin with. If they do that instead of just offing who they think did it, anyway.

Maybe you should start a court of law so you can help out all the people who get screwed over by the current system.

Hi, I'm Levy. Their should be a map of Genessia there. If not the employment office has them.

[Her tone is light and easy though her small is shy and small.]

I think there was someone else here who was an attorney. I haven't seen her for a while though.

[Video]

[sensesyourdiscord]

Oh! Oh, I see one now. [She must have overlooked it before] There was? ...what was her name? [Maybe that person was from back home...]

[Video]

[skilledwithwords]

Trucy Wright? I don't know if you've met her or not.

[psychic_supremecy]

[Have a psychic mutant murdercat.]

What exactly does an 'attorney' do?

[sensesyourdiscord]

[She barely bats an eyelash at the talking cat creature. All she can think is that if Orla could talk during her trial it would've made things...a little easier. They did manage to uncover the truth, but it was still tough going.]

An attorney protects the innocent. They find the truth behind crimes and injustices, and they believe in their client no matter what!

[psychic_supremecy]

[That sounds all well and good but doesn't explain one crucial matter, in Mewtwo's eyes.]

...How?

[video]

[gundesign]

A defense attorney?! But you look so young!

[Blurted out without thinking, of course. But hey, Tori's impressed! That's a good thing, right?]

Re: [video]

[sensesyourdiscord]

[Athena momentarily frowns at those words, but quickly gets over it.]

I know, but I studied extra hard in Europe and I've always been a fast learner! [For...reasons. Yes.]

[video]

[gundesign]

[It's not as if Tori's much older than Athena, in all actuality...]

Really? Wow! That's super cool, you know? I can't imagine learning all the things that go into that sort of thing so quickly...

[rakuganzuki]

What's a defense attorney?

[ He maybe old (and only maybe visible but he doesn't know that one. ]

video

[sensesyourdiscord]

Someone who protects the innocent from false accusations. They fight for justice, believe in their clients and smile no matter how grim things get.

[Yes, this young woman is a 'graduate' of the Phoenix Wright school of lawyering. Which is technically the Mia Fey school...Mr. Wright told her about Mia after Orla's case.]

[rakuganzuki]

...eh? [ What now? ] Like some samurai?

[magicpanchira]

[ Trucy has to do a double take here, because holy crap Athena is a sight for sore eyes. She hasn't seen the other girl in months... so please, Athena, try not to judge Trucy or being more than a little excited. ]

Athena! When did you get here?!

[ Video ]

[sensesyourdiscord]

-Trucy! Someone just mentioned you, and I was about to go looking for you! [She's bouncing a little, she's so happy!]

[magicpanchira]

I can't believe you're here! Where are you? I can come to you, if you'd like! [ SHE IS TOO, ATHENA. She's already moving around, grabbing her keys and everything, because she's definitely going to go and find her friend! ]

Hello Athena. I'm Pyrrha Nikos. I know it's a bit strange when you first get here, but I'll try to help out however I can.

There are various cities to choose from, so it depends on what your preferences are.

[sensesyourdiscord]

It's nice to meet you, Miss Nikos! And thank you.

I'm used to big cities, with lots of buildings and stands...especially noodle carts!

[fallsuccession]

You might like Nova City then. It's more technically advanced of the all of the other cities too. I could show you the way if you'd like?

[gohomeivar]

What exactly is a "defense attorney"....?

[Sorry, Athena.... Milla is pretty clueless when it comes to the human world.]

[sensesyourdiscord]

They're someone who protects the innocent. Like a knight, only instead of fighting with swords they fight with the truth.

Hi Athena, my name is Kou. [It's actually Gou, but details.] There are a lot of different jobs here, but I don't think there are any law offices here yet. You could probably open one? I started my own swim club business here myself.

[As if her swimsuit wasn't a givaway, the pool in the background might be.]

[sensesyourdiscord]

That's what I'm going to do, yeah! [she smiles] Swimming, huh. I haven't been swimming in a long time, but I did go to an aquarium for one of my cases.

It's nice to meet you!
