...I think, on retrospect, that that was officially the stupidest damn thing I've ever done in my life.

Wright, what did you do?

Damnit, Edgeworth, I'm a fool. But Otto and Rei, they burned some sort of kanji into his forehead, and he was pissing me off so much...

I told him. Not the whole truth, not about his father. Or I didn't mean to. But I overheard part of the conversation, and someone else... filled in the gap I left.

God. I've just ruined it. You can hate me now, Edgeworth.

...

You.. wait.. Otto? The truth?

...

You told Mitsurugi about DL-6? Are you serious?!

So he knows that his mentor..

[wright-idea.livejournal.com]

I didn't want him to know about his mentor! But Rei... Damnit, she didn't get it. Didn't get the need for subtlety. And just as I was about to head into my apartment, I heard her tell him...

It's ruined. It's all ruined. His father will find out somehow, and everything's going to move too fast... I've let you down, Edgeworth, me and my big fat mouth. I... I'm sorry.

Wright, there is no need for that. It was bound to happen one day, correct? The fact that it occured in a spurt of uncontrolled emotion does not change the fact that the truth was revealed.

There is a chance that things will turn out different from them, correct? Our time lines do not entirely coincide.

[wright-idea.livejournal.com]

I... I guess. I hope... I hope I haven't ruined things too badly. But... I think, now, that we're going to have to keep an even closer eye on things. In case... in case the worst happens.

At least Naruhodo doesn't know.

[cutslikeasword.livejournal.com]

Do you think it is wise to not tell him? Certainly he will find out eventually, but the difference there lies between you telling him and Naruhodo finding out on his own.

[wright-idea.livejournal.com]

...I'm not sure which is best. I've already opened my big mouth once...

...but on the other hand, Naruhodo may never get the urge to investigate Mitsurugi because of...

...I'll think about it. For once.

Whatever you've done, stupider has been.

[wright-idea.livejournal.com]

I... maybe.

Though at the moment, it's hard to imagine WHAT.

[nosfloratu.livejournal.com]

Of course. Come over sometime, will you?

[wright-idea.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'll do that. Thanks, Isley.

What has happened?

[wright-idea.livejournal.com]

Me and my big mouth happened. I told Mitsurugi something I really shouldn't have.

[devilsphyscian.livejournal.com]

"About the possible future, what would've made you do such a thing?"

[wright-idea.livejournal.com]

Ugh, Georik, Otto and Rei... they branded a goddamn word in Mitsurugi's forehead. And I... I guess part of me wanted them to understand he already felt like a criminal, and part of me was pissed at Mitsurugi for letting himself do something illegal for real, and... it just sort of came out. I wasn't going to tell him who actually did it, but I made the mistake of telling Rei, and she... well, she filled in the gap.

I may have really messed it up this time, Georik.

... ... *he suddenly growled, the expression is almost inhuman, voice barely above a whisper, very terse, and controlled* How dare they - especially Octavius, especially after what he tried...

You did what you could, If I see Octavius' face again...
