Mr. Corinthian,

A word with you if you please.

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

I told you before you can stop with the "mister" crap.

What's up?

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

And I told you it's not polite to do so.

I saw what happened to Mr. Edgeworth. I was wondering if you want to be able to talk to him again to know exactly what happened and what you two can do to change it.

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

....I already know exactly what happened, and how I'm going to change it.


....and not that the offer isn't appreciated, but....why?

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

Did you managed to find a way that don't cause more trouble to your acquaintances? Miss Morrian seems to have a temper.

I though I could give you two a hand. He is not able to talk now, but he would be able to talk in the sort of dreams from my world because they're on the mind.

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

You ask an awful lot of questions, has anyone mentioned that?

Unless it's currently so ingrained on his mind that he silences himself even there.... He's not like you. Lucid dreaming is far from his forte.

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

Many people, many times.

There's only a way to discover. You would be surprised, I have my ways to turn him into a lucid dreamer.

[And those are, basically, drag him to a dream and tell him he's dreaming. :P]

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

Enlighten me, then.

[Pfft tricky Arthur is tricky, I see. XD]

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

A but telling would be boring, I rather show you two. I need him here with me.

[It's the 'Mr. Charles' strategy. He never liked it, Cobb used it only in extreme situations. But he's not working now, so it's safe :D And all this is so he can tell you about Eames and Cobb, even if it's too late..]

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

Not until I know what you're going to do to him.

[Awww, Arthur, so helpful~ ;3; Pffft, he can still tell him more about Cobb, and he hasn't even met Eames yet.]

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

Nothing, just talk. I can show it to you first. I promise no giant spiders this time.

[Because Cori will eb the dreamer, therefore his projections would be there and not Arthur's. Alwayyyyyyyyyys ;3; ok!]

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

....

Whatever the hell it is, just make it quick.

[I dunno if Cori will have projections in the same sense as Arthur, since his dreams are almost solely memories with a few tweaks here and there. He'll get to see an awful lot of Eye Scream material? :D; ....wanna action spam something quick out here and then do an RL for all three elsewhere after?]

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

You can worldhop, come to my world.

[Oh god..i will pm you about it! we can Rl here this two and then RL here a new thread with Edgeworth if the mun wants.]

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

I'll be there after I finish some things.

[ It all sounds good to me! :> ]

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

All right.

[aaand action?]

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

[At least he doesn't take too long? There may or may not be a nightmare outside his door now. Don't ask how he found him.]

[Action]

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

[Arthur won't ask, but once they're done he's moving to a different hotel again.]

Mr Corinthian, welcome. Make yourself at home. [He moves so he can get inside the room. There's a metallic suitcase in the bed, apart from that the room is pretty scarce in objects or clothes that indicates it's occupied. ]

Re: [Action]

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

[Arthur can move as much as he likes but Cori is watching him. Always. (&hearts)]

You know, the next time you call me that I might have to break something on you. [....it is a little strange to see someplace that looks so very unlived it, but he walks inside anyway.] Now what's so special that you have to drag me all the way out here for it?

Re: [Action]

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

[Pervert. He's not concerned about Cori, more about law.]

Good to know that your charming ways hasn't changed since the last time we met. Arthur says, face serious but there's an amusement in his tone of voice.] Take a seat and I will show you.

Arthur opened the suitcase.

oOOOo

[Its a simple coffee shop, with wooden floors and columns. The view of the Eifee towel saluted them when they looked outside. Arthur sips his coffee quietly as he watches it, Cori by his side.]

[Action]

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

[And Cori is....well, he actually seems to be almost enjoying the view. He's pretty much ignored his coffee, though.]

You know, I kept meaning to visit this place at least once. I'm not sure why it took so long....

Re: [Action]

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

[Turn it into a beer if you want.]

Paris is a lovely place, one of my favorites. With your powers you can go anywhere, right? I bet it's faster than flying.

[Action]

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

I could if I wanted, yeah.

[Action]

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

What's stopping you?

[Action]

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

[He shrugs, sounding almost detached.] Sometimes I'm not always sure I'll come back.

[A pause, and finally he turns to Arthur as if just now noticing he exists.] You wanted to visit for a reason. You should hurry with that before I have to strand you here.

Re: [Action]

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

[Arthur gives Corinthian a strange look. I sounded liek he was talking about limbo.

Then his back returned to a neutral expression again.]I'm not the one visiting, Mr. Corinthian. You really don't notice anything strange, don't you? No one does at the beginning.

Re: [Action]

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

[Confused nightmare is confuuused.] You're not exactly the first person I'd choose to come here with, but other then that....

Re: [Action]

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

[But of course.] And how we get here? [Sips coffee again.]

Re: [Action]

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

I....

[A pause. Then a frown. Wait, how did they....?]

[Action]

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

[The plate in the table and Cori's own coffee starts to move at the sudden tremble that seems to shake the whole coffee shoot. Just like a small earthquake. Arthur pays it no mind. ]

[Action]

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

[And it doesn't seem to last long. The room seemed to flicker, shadows and dull splatters staining the shop and everyone in it, the dreamscape shifting and twisting into something might have seemed more comforting if it wasn't a mess of endless hallways covered in glass and mirrors. He barely suppresses a snarl as he turns on Arthur.]

Next time I ask what you're going to do? You're going to tell me before I agree to anything.

Re: [Action]

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

[Arthur is studying the next scenery as he replies, not looking at Corinthian.] I told you. You wouldn't be here otherwise. You don't remember because we never remember the beginning of a dream.

[Action]

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

[The halls are nothing like the real thing, fortunately for Arthur. Nothing but glass here. Cori scoffs quietly.] I'm waking up now.

Re: [Action]

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

[In fact..they coudl be, subconscious, remember? They can be worse than the real thing.]

It doesn't work that way. And what for? You wanted this.

Re: [Action]

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

[True, but he'll hold it back just so Arthur isn't scared into a coma or anything. That might be bad.]

I did. And now I saw it and we can move on.

Re: [Action]

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

[Limbo is not a funny place, better not to end in a coma, no.]

We are not doing this only for you but your friend. Why the mirrors?

Re: [Action]

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

And the sooner I'm awake the sooner we can get to him, right? [Aaaand watch him ignore the last bit.]

Re: [Action]

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

[Arthur checked his watch.] We still have 10 minutes before the kick. [He noticed the lack of response :/]I'm partial to steps, I guess everybody has a special taste in some things.

Re: [Action]

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

[rrrrrgh can Arthur tell Cori hates waiting?] I described my job to you before, didn't I?

Re: [Action]

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

[Yes, he doesn't care 8)]Briefly. [He looks interested.]

Re: [Action]

[darkmirror-vr2.livejournal.com]

[Bad move, Arthur, actually looking interested. He seems to relax, letting something loosen, and motions to the closest section of mirrors.]

Take a look for yourself.

Re: [Action]

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

[It's what a point man does, ok? 8| He's also suspicious.]It's your subconscious, you really want me to do that?

[Because, you know, he wont' be his fears and worries but yours.]
