[RL: Sunday, Noon - Lunch [Freud!Virus] | Phoenix; Edgeworth]

Phoenix stared at the piece of paper in front of him. The prospect of eating raw fish didn't seem as appetizing as his lunch companion made it out to be, and the fact that he didn't recognize a single item on the list only served to make him more skeptical. Magura? Hamachi? Kani kama? Perhaps if there had been some kind of explanation, he may have been less inclined to set the paper aside in favor of the regular lunch menu, although that was a very large if.

As he scanned the selections, he sighed in relief. At least you couldn't go wrong with a teriyaki beef bowl, right?

A smirk crossed Edgeworth's lips as he glanced up to find Wright setting aside his sushi menu. The man had probably never set foot inside a sushi restaurant...for that matter, he doubted Wright had ever eaten at a restaurant where crayons weren't available upon request.

"Not a fan?" he asked, his tone politely curious. He perused his own menu, noting a few items that he would not have normally ordered but which seemed appropriate considering his company.
samuraiprosecutor: (Try using this.)

The wide-eyed stare Wright directed at the menu provided further amusement, but it was cut short as their waiter returned. As Edgeworth folded his menu he watched Wright's difficulties with his straw. The waiter's prompt and discreet correction of the situation garnered further notice, and Edgeworth mentally adjusted the man's tip in accordance.

Nodding in response to Wright's question, Edgeworth rattled off several types of sushi in well-accented Japanese, along with sides of miso and rice. After a pause, he added kanzake for two to the list, then handed the waiter his menu as he turned his attention to Wright.
samuraiprosecutor: (Curious)

Menus gone and with nothing else to occupy them but talk, Edgeworth found himself slipping into silence. Idly he surveyed the restaurant; it was only half-full despite the lunch hour, but that was one of the things that usually drew him to this particular place.

Edgeworth glanced at his companion out of the corner of his eye. It was...strange seeing him casually. Not necessarily in an unpleasant way, yet... He tried to remember the last time they'd even seen each other. Or the last time before 'Maraich's trial, as business obviously didn't count. Nor did that one drug-induced night when Wright had come to the apartment...all Edgeworth could clearly remember of that visit was that Sigi had been crucial to the night's events. Their...discussion in the cafe came to mind, but he couldn't recall anything else more recent.

'Has it really been so long?' With a slightly curious gaze he turned his attention back to Wright.

[personal profile] samuraiprosecutor 2008-03-20 06:38 am (UTC)(link)
Ignoring his own growing discomfort, Edgeworth met Wright's eyes levelly and smirked at Wright's pronunciation, a clumsy but fair approximation of his own polished delivery of the word. "You want me to ruin the surprise?"
samuraiprosecutor: (Smiiiirk)

[personal profile] samuraiprosecutor 2008-03-20 06:40 am (UTC)(link)
Edgeworth's smirk widened. "I'm not about to engage in a round of twenty questions." With a forced casualness he lifted his glass of water and squeezed the slice of lemon over it before taking a long sip.
samuraiprosecutor: (Uncomfortable)

[personal profile] samuraiprosecutor 2008-03-20 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
Wright's sudden and deliberate move coincided perfectly with the completion of Edgeworth's drink; he caught the gesture just as he opened his eyes again, and when he set his drink down a bit too suddenly the ice tinkled sharply. "It seems that patience is a lesson you have yet to learn."
samuraiprosecutor: (Whatchoo talkin' bout?)

[personal profile] samuraiprosecutor 2008-03-21 07:27 am (UTC)(link)
A frown twitched at the corners of his lips, and he quirked an eyebrow questioningly. "You disagree?"
samuraiprosecutor: (Uncomfortable)

[personal profile] samuraiprosecutor 2008-03-21 07:31 am (UTC)(link)
Their eyes held for a few moments until Edgeworth's gaze dropped to the gentle smile on Wright's lips. The expression was one that had become damnably familiar to him, and his eyes lingered on it a few moments too long. "I'm finding that hard to believe. Patience notwithstanding, you're not a man who waits for answers, Wright."
samuraiprosecutor: (Whoo boy?)

[personal profile] samuraiprosecutor 2008-03-21 07:34 am (UTC)(link)
"That your methods do work is nothing short of miraculous." He paused and wrapped his hand around his glass, though he waited to drink again until after he finished saying (in a tone of complete professionalism), "Have you taken on any cases since the last one?"
samuraiprosecutor: (Angry footsie)

[personal profile] samuraiprosecutor 2008-03-21 07:35 am (UTC)(link)
Edgeworth rolled his eyes, unconsciously mimicking his companion's response. "That would be the last trial we were both involved in. Though technically you could say it wasn't Maraich who was on trial."

He paused and gave Wright an appraising look. "You take on clients quite infrequently."
samuraiprosecutor: (Uncomfortable)

[personal profile] samuraiprosecutor 2008-03-21 07:38 am (UTC)(link)
The rhythmic drumming drew Edgeworth's eye as well, and he watched Wright's hands until he dragged his gaze away, only to let it fall on his own hand spread comfortably on the table. Almost without thinking he compared the two (Wright's had large knuckles; his nails were cut close but clean. His own fingers were longer, thicker but with smaller knuckles, nails perfectly manicured.) until he realized he was taking just a bit too long to respond and a few moments of awkward silence had already passed.

"Mia Fey's legacy included an incompetent secretary? Overflowing filing cabinets shouldn't be your problem."
samuraiprosecutor: (O RLY?)

[personal profile] samuraiprosecutor 2008-03-21 07:41 am (UTC)(link)
Masking his embarassment Edgeworth met Wright's eyes, his gaze firm. "Ms. Fey did her own filing?" His tone was a confused mix of impressed and mildly contemptuous. "She handed down an interesting catch-22. Perhaps when you can handle a larger clientele you'll be able to afford a professional secretary, in addition to upgrading your suits, but getting to that point will be difficult without a full-time secretary."
samuraiprosecutor: (Another sidelong glare)

[personal profile] samuraiprosecutor 2008-03-29 08:51 am (UTC)(link)
'Managing' was hardly reassuring; it brought to mind an image of the Wright & Co. Law Offices, every available surface hidden by folders and stacks of paper. It was difficult to imagine either Wright or his young 'assistant' as being particularly well-versed in the running of an office. A slight frown furrowed Edgeworth's brow. "I'm sure."
