[...aaand then Edgeworth realizes too late that Kay just provoked him into giving himself away more.]

Gkk... nrrrrgh...

[And will point towards the exit before growling:]

We will continue this conversation in a less public location. Do I make myself clear?!

[agreatandnoblethief]

O-of course! Sheesh....I was only kidding! [She'll follow him anyway. What's the big deeeeaaaal, Daaaaaad?

Then again, he seems quite fond of the Steel Samurai...hmmm....]

[truthsnomiracle]

[And Edgeworth will lead the way out the door of the store, out the nearest exit of the mall, and into a cul-de-sac in the building's design which holds of the mall's emergency generators. He ultimately stops behind said generator and fumes at Kay.]

In the future, I would appreciate being afforded the dignity of being allowed to retain my anonymity when shopping in embarrassing places!

[agreatandnoblethief]

A-all right! You don't have to yell about it. [GEEZ.]

[truthsnomiracle]

Kay, one aspect of this disguise takes days to prepare -- [meaning the stubble, of course; have you ever seen Edgeworth with a 5 o'clock shadow, after all?] -- to the point that I must plan my schedule around such excursions as this! I don't appreciate having such carefully-laid plans disrupted!

[agreatandnoblethief]

Huh?

[And then, an amused grin forms on her lips. She starts to whisper.]....Mr. Edgeworth, are you saying that you didn't bother shaving for the past few days and donned the weird getup just so you could go and buy some Steel Samurai stuff? [Kay's about to laugh again but she places her hand in front of her mouth to stop herself so that she doesn't rile Edgeworth up even more.

Still, she can't help but let a loud snort escape.]

[truthsnomiracle]

[Less further anger, more acting like a cat caught falling due to a miscalculation.]

W-well, yes -- is that so wrong?!

[agreatandnoblethief]

Well.....no, although I personally think the Jammin' Ninja is way cooler.

Still, why don't you just go into the shop normally like everyone else?

......Unless you're trying to practice your special thieving techniques? [She's kidding of course but whether or not Edgeworth realises that...]

[truthsnomiracle]

Nothing of the sort! [It's a good thing he at least remembers the context of Byrne, Kay, or his reaction would have been worse.] I merely wish to prevent my personal life from unduly intruding on my professional life!

[agreatandnoblethief]

So basically you're saying you don't want anyone to find out that you buy Steel Samurai toys, right? [Come to think of it, Kay wouldn't put it past Mr. Edgeworth to do something like that.]

Keywords.

[truthsnomiracle]

......... [SIGH.]

Essentially, yes.

Re: Keywords.

[agreatandnoblethief]

I thought so! [Giggles. This will make a great story for her to tell Gummy later!]

But seriously, Mr. Edgeworth! It's kinda obvious that you do that anyway if you think about it. [Like that toy in your room. As well as the autograph and how you reacted when Quercus Alba said that he was a fan of the show. Sheesh even Larry worked it out.]

[truthsnomiracle]

[Slowly and firmly:] That case was a fluke.

[Because clearly the way he was completely humiliated in the embassy was all Kay meant, right?]

[agreatandnoblethief]

Uh-huh. And what about that doll in your office?

[truthsnomiracle]

That figurine was a gift from the same person who supplies my office with flowers! Would it not be strange to display one and not the other?!

[And in today's entry for Worst Excuse Ever...]

[agreatandnoblethief]

A gift....?! [And she frowns.]

Uhhhh....you mean it's from that old lady we met at Gatewater Land and the Codophian Embassy? [Guess what Gumshoe told her. And it's weirding her out.]

[truthsnomiracle]

[Edgeworth winces, then sighs and rubs his forehead.]

The very same, unfortunately.

[agreatandnoblethief]

But that's.....weird. I didn't think you'd be the type to want gifts from someone like her. [She IS kind of annoying and scary. And she was rude to Kay as well.]

[truthsnomiracle]

While she is an abhorrent woman, she chooses her gifts all too well.

[agreatandnoblethief]

Ah-ha! So I guess that explains the doll! [Good luck in talking your way out of this one, Edgeworth.]

[truthsnomiracle]

Gg -- guh -- ngkk -- gwuhah?!

[More like good luck talking at all.]

[agreatandnoblethief]

Awwww c'mon, Mr. Edgeworth! It doesn't take a genius like you to figure it out.

[truthsnomiracle]

That doesn't mean I want it known!

[agreatandnoblethief]

Hey, maybe you can come over to my house one day and we could have a Steel Samurai and Jammin' Ninja marathon! [C'mon, second Daddy it will be fun!]

[truthsnomiracle]

After you're responsible for all this?!
