Character Name: Miles "can't spell prosecutor without cute" Edgeworth
Canon: Ace Attorney

Info:

Edgeworth is the protagonist's rival character and frenemy from the Ace Attorney series: a genius prosecutor who started his career at the age of 20 and racked up a perfect win record up until, y'know, Phoenix Wright Happened™. His wiki describes him as "calm and level-headed, but typically seen as a snob due to his cold, ruthless, and generally aloof nature. He has a certain lack of social skills and tact, making him very insecure and awkward around others. In fact, he was taught as a child to glare at people who looked at him, unwittingly intimidating them."

However, thanks to character development and a whole judicial conga of shitshow during which he was suspected of murder twice, actually put on trial for it once, and subsequently had some very rude awakenings about the level of corruption inherent in the legal system he'd devoted his life and career to, Edgeworth in recent times has been reevaluating a lot of his previous decisions and priorities, and is taking steps toward deciding what values he really believes in, and what course he wants to take moving into the future.

Magic & Familiar:

He has Cognitive magic (investigations) and his familiar is a Phoenix, which is technically appropriate to his character arc because of its "kill the old you and be reborn" themes and also because lol the series protagonist.

Desired CR:

1) Found family, in the long-term. It's an Ace Attorney staple to wind up being weird not-dad to Young People™ and therefore I see no reason why I shouldn't adhere to that same principle.

2) Confidants! Please. Please. This man needs someone to talk to, holy shit.

3) Pretty much anything else! His arc in Avalon is still pretty new so I'm really flexible about just kind of tagging out to people and seeing where things go naturally.

Known Plans:

I absolutely want to do as many support quests as possible because 1) it's canon for Edgeworth to ascend the ranks of achievement very quickly, 2) he doesn't care about accolades so I think it'd be funny if he wound up with a Lordship mostly by accident, and 3) Capcom Cafe just gave us King Edgeworth so I mean. I gotta.

Also, Edgeworth has a lot of bad memories wrapped up in the Christmas period because it's the time of year when his father was murdered! So. He's going to be a little moody about that, and potentially a little more likely to talk about some of His Issues™ than he might be otherwise, just because it'll be weighing heavily on his mind. For those who want a crack at accessing his level four tragic backstory!

Finally, he's working as an arbiter/mediator in a tiny shitty courthouse office on the outskirts of town, but he is on some level a minor public official authorized to decide disputes, so if you and your CR are having an incredibly stupid dispute, he's here to render a verdict!

I'll take What Is Found Family for 500, Alex.

I LOVE THEIR CR SO MUCH I was legitimately not expecting Edgeworth to abruptly get concerned about Hope's well-being but HERE WE ARE i guess

It's safe to assume that Edgeworth has been drafting him for odd jobs and things in the interim, both to make sure he's got some semblance of an income and also to just kind of keep an eye on him o/

[distantfuture]

Hope apparently has that effect on people??? I love it, haha

Yeah, he's fine being a glorified errand boy and such! Honestly, Hope is a smart kid and does eventually grow up to be a leader of a nation so I think he also might get interested in learning a thing or two! He was more an archeologist in 13-2 before becoming Director but that curiosity and eagerness to learn is there.

PLAY CHESS WITH HIM OVER LUNCH, HOPE

I could definitely see that sort of thing evolving over time, where as Edgeworth gets more familiar with him being around he starts giving him less errandy things to do and more actual responsibility, so that's certainly a path we can go down!

im assuming they're roomies at this point so MAYBE they can talk about ole edge's christmas problem. cae will be an ass and comment on his moodiness if he notices it.

[jurisprudence]

i'm thinking i'm gonna have him put up a network post in a minute being MOODY so rest assured there will be plenty to notice

[casaposa]

drown ur problems in wine and squid ink pasta not social media edge gosh

[emet_sulk]

Hmm, I can offer my guy for tea (or coffee in Emet's case) and chatting and see where that might lead? Maybe nothing will come of it, maybe something will! Emet's got some issues of his own that he's working through.

Like committing genocide...

WHO DOESN'T LOVE TALKING ABOUT ISSUES

nobody, why would you talk about issues, just lock them all up inside of yourself forever and then someday die

[emet_sulk]

The only appropriate way to handle issues!!

More seriously, if you have a quest or something you're thinking of having Edgeworth take up, I can tag in? I do have an open post for Emet but it's a smattering of quests he's taken up himself.
