Case 1: Here Comes Justice! [Video]

[justjustice]

[The screen flickers on to reveal Apollo, who seems to appear a little more self-confident than usual, if such a thing can be quantified by appearance.]

Hey, everybody! This is Apollo Justice. I'm just letting you know that, as of yesterday, I've officially been hired as an attorney in Hinoto-Ri! So if any of you ever get into any legal trouble, like being falsely accused of murder, I could probably help you out. My first client in Hinoto-Ri is someone who's accused of murdering another person during the chaos of that incident in the arena. Wish me luck! [He's probably going to need it.]

By the way, I'm currently looking for someone to serve as my co-council. You might not think you're qualified to help out a lawyer, but believe me, if a 15-year-old magician girl could serve as a reliable co-council for me, I think some of you could, too. [Not to talk smack about Trucy or anything, of course.] Granted, said magician girl was the daughter of one of the best attorneys I know, but if you bring some deductive skills, I think you should be fine. If you're interested, just let me know and I'll tell you when I have to come into court.

Oh, no, I was just wondering! My co-council back home had pretty much no history either, so that doesn't worry me so much. You sound like you'd be a great co-council, though, if you're that good with logic.

[justjustice]

Good! Information gathering is good! Outside the courtroom, I have to gather evidence, so it'll be good to have someone help with that. By the way, do you have a Support Persona? Just wondering.

[justjustice]

Um... well, she was completely willing to help...? Darn, I never thought of it that way. I wonder why no one called me out on it.

[justjustice]

I heard about that. I'm not surprised...

Yeah, definitely! Nice to meet you again, Amagi! But... um... "Justice-san?" [Nope, someone has no concept of Japanese honorifics or name ordering. Whoops.]

[ghost_shield]

Hey, it's not like I know how the rules work around you guys. Maybe they thought it was perfectly fine.

[gigglesnortpriestess]

Oh, it's like 'Mr' in English speaking countries; they're called honorifics and they're common in Japan. We also introduce each other with our family name first then our given one.

[The more you know. :) ]

"I'm from the 23rd century. Just let me know when you need things logged and I can set something up to log everything. That and if you have a computer I can tie you into my data network."

[Video]

[beautifulmemory]

I see. So you're something of a negotiator. That is very useful, after all. I'm assuming you collect chat logs and the like to help prove what the facts are.

[terra_nullius]

I would be more than happy to assist you if you wish. Just let me know when and where I would be best of service.

[hadronknight]

Unfortunately, that is not the case, my Personae are geared towards melee combat rather than a support role.

[justjustice]

Ohhh boy. Well, I can say for sure that my world is just about completely non-magical. I'll have to leave the magical-technical stuff to you, then.

[justjustice]

"The 23rd century... wow. I'm just from the 21st century myself. And I do have a computer now, so... tell me what I need to do to get into your network."

[justjustice]

Rest assured, I will! I'll let you know when we should meet and discuss the current case.

[justjustice]

Ah, that's okay. My Persona has a skill that lets me know where potential evidence is, so I've got that covered. How can you help me gather other information, then?

[Video]

[justjustice]

That's right. I haven't had to use a chat log as evidence yet, but I do collect lots of evidence for proof.

[meaningdies]

Most people thought mine was as well,, until the demons showed up. But that's a story for another time. It's something of a specialty of mine.

[Not to brag or anything... okay it's totally bragging.]

"Come talk to me on my ship. Its the um... Space ship in the park. Its very visible from the train. Or you can see it from the few food stands that set up here."

[beautifulmemory]

Interesting. If there's ever something on the network that you need, but can't access, let me know.

In the meantime, store up some interesting things to trade.

[hadronknight]

I'm... quite popular in certain areas, so getting intel on something within would probably help you, wouldn't it?

[yep.]

[Video]

[justjustice]

Oh... Oh. [Now he gets it.] Oh, man, that's embarrassing! I'm sorry, Yukiko! Anyway, how did you do after the incident at the tournament?

[justjustice]

Maybe they did... I do know someone who had a girl who was close to her age as his co-council.

[justjustice]

Popular...? Do I want to know what you mean by that? Anyway, I think that would help, yes.

[video]

[justjustice]

"...Space ship?" A pause. No, this is not what Apollo is used to at all. "Well, I imagine it would be easy to find. I'll keep an eye out for it."

[justjustice]

Demons?! Uh... yeah. I guess we'll save that story for another time. Thanks for offering to help!

[Video | Private]

[justjustice]

Hmm... sounds good. Thanks! But what do you mean by "interesting things?"
