WEEK THREE MINGLE
ᯓ⭐ WEEK THREE MINGLE
Happy third week, lovebirds! Here's to hoping you're riding high on the wave of success of one whole pair being correct! Surely you must have an idea by now how to win this thing!
Probably?
The good news is that you're not going to have to find yourselves in any weird clothes this time around, except maybe that just leads to a strange sense of foreboding for a future scenario...? Who knows. You can't quite brace yourself for it this time.
But don't worry, it's not like there's nothing happening. On the contrary!
For the entirety of this week, you'll find yourself feeling... clingy. It's going to start feeling very strange if you're not leaning on someone, holding their hand, cuddling with them, sitting in their lap, stealing a kiss, or engaging in some other form of affectionate physical contact. And if it's someone you're already feeling fond of OR someone you actually can't stand, guess what?
That feeling is doubled!
You may realize this is an unusual feeling, but so what? Trying to ignore it is only going to make it feel stronger and do you really want to make yourselves feel miserable?
Shut up, masochists.

I think we should... send Phoenix in with someone... If we manage to find his Perfect Match, then at least he won't have to deal with the rest of this mess anymore...
[ Phoenix Wright you deserve better than this, ]
no subject
no subject
See? That's... exactly why... we should find your match... You really are the best of us!
no subject
Wait. ... Where'd you get that pizza bagel...?
no subject
[ as she continues happily munching on it. ]
Aaanyhow, out of allll the pairs from this past weekend... I think you and Maruki have a better shot...
no subject
You think so? I supposed that we do have a fighting chance. Even given what we've learned today. ...I mean, there is a chance that could make us an even stronger pair in the executives' eyes.
no subject
R-Really?
[ wait. that's free bagel. back into her mouth it goes. ]
Even stronger... in what way? And you really... are all right with being paired with him still, right?
[ Because... that would be incredibly kind of Phoenix, and that sort of kindness that she thinks Maruki could stand to have more of in his life. ]
no subject
Well, I guess you could say we've taken parallel roads in our lives and our careers. He... tried to remake reality and ended up leaving his job after going back on his plans. I was disbarred from my profession for years and worked towards reforming the legal system while making my way back to it. I... still feel like maybe we can learn from each other. Even learning all of that, I don't feel dissuaded from being paired with him.
no subject
[ And she may not even understand the full extent of what that undertaking must be like, given her limited knowledge of, uh. Modern legal systems, but Phoenix has been nothing but earnest, and it's easy enough to understand that it must not have been an easy path. ]
If that's how you feel, then I think you two could very well be a Perfect Match...! You know, heee... [ gestures with her bagel at wherever Maruki has been seated by Lin ] Told me before he's big on second chances... Who's better at giving second chances than someone whose life's work is making sure others get just that after being accused? Ehehe...heh.
[ Rare Wise Ori moment? Is she being wise? She's being wise, right?? ]
no subject
He smiles as he listens to her. And blushes a little.]
You're saying some real smart things, Ori. It's definitely helping me feel better about our chances! I know I'm ready to be in his corner. Thanks for helping me out!
no subject
Phoenix, eh?
I think that's fine, provided he has an opinion on who he wants to go in with. He and Maruki were floated as an idea earlier, but I'd like them both to weigh in on the possibility of that now.
no subject
[ Slooowly angles her head to wherever Maruki's government-assigned spot is at Lin's table. ]
Maruki made himself vulnerable by saying what he did... and I think Phoenix can see... how much he wants a second chance to do right by the people who made it possible for him to even want one... Hic. Ehe. That's what I think, anyway!
[ She casts Lin a knowing look. Second chances are important, right? ]
Anyway, if that falls through... maybe you and Manuela? Too bad she doesn't seem interested in women, thouuuugh...
[ Yup. We're just saying that out loud now. ]
no subject
[ Personally, she can't relate, because unlike her mom, Lin is not blind and there are plenty of good looking women in their cast. ]
I don't know about me and Manuela — she's... good looking, don't misunderstand. [ manuela is hot okay everyone acknowledges this she just doesn't want it to come off like she's saying manuela is NOT HER TYPE ] But she seems a little... lax.
[ Granted, it's not like she knows everything about her... but the drinking and the eating pizza bagels off the floor... it leaves an impression in her mind. Perhaps because of her own high-strung-edness, it's hard to imagine herself with anyone who is not also like that. but lbr lin just hates fun ]
I lead a very strict life, and I don't know if we would be compatible.
no subject
Do you think I'm a little lax, too, then? [ fellow drinker and floor pizza bagel eater here. She is eating a floor pizza bagel right now. ] Ehe...
Maybe... That's exactly why you might be a pair, though. Maybe your life is too strict, so you might be paired with someone who can... get you to loosen up a little...
[ A knowing smile that cuts even through the goofiness of her drunken expression. ]
Even if it's just... little steps... heh.
