[Text; Response from Sakurako]

[Early in the Morning, everyone who was reported as murdered will get the following text:]

Hey! ! know you all have been through a lot and probably feel k!inda down so come to the bookstore ton!ght at 7 and well cheer you up!!

Action: Gil's bookstore

[Anyone who comes into Gil's bookstore around 7 am will find it decked out with a banner saying "Welcome Back!" On a table stands a sheet cake frosted with the letters "You're Alive again!" and a post of soup simmering away on a hot plate. Around both of these are a number of smaller plates holding a much fancier cake, strawberry and all, each with the name of one of the victims written on it. The cafe cats are decorated with a ribbon of their own, to varying degrees of annoyance to each of them. They have been joined by Sakurako's cats Cookie and Biscuit, who seem to be enjoying their stint as the center of interest to a number of their fellow felines.

In the back stands a small Karaoke machine, beeping away in an attempt to generate interest. The couches and chairs have been pushed flush with the outer bookshelves to create a bit more space for people to mingle.

Miki is sitting at the counter, waiting to get coffee (or I guess, sell books) to anyone who is interested in buying some extra stuff.]

I dunno then. You still can't use it as an excuse to handle it all yourself.

[truthsnomiracle]

If I did nothing, then who would act?

[assaultedramen]

So you aren't even gonna try and get some people to help you out? Hmph.

[truthsnomiracle]

OBJECTION!

I have been trying! In fact, I spoke to one woman just last week who seems as though she may be a good candidate for a judge and is willing to learn about the job. I also have two people working on a form of punishment for criminals like our serial killer. There are still several matters that need to be addressed, but why do you think I'm here if not to speak with others who have an interest in the form our justice system takes?!

[assaultedramen]

Don't point that finger at me! I don't keep track of everything you do. I thought you came here because parties were illegal or something else to ruin tonight.

[truthsnomiracle]

If parties in and of themselves were illegal, I would think that would have become obvious by now given how regularly kidnappees throw them. Furthermore, if I were motivated to ruin parties, than why would there have been no signs of anyone attempting to do so since my arrival four months ago?

[assaultedramen]

This is the first one I've thrown and you seem determined to ruin my fun so I'm sure you'd find a way.

[truthsnomiracle]

I'm not out to "ruin your fun"; I merely want to ensure that you don't harm anyone who hasn't already agreed to it, which I highly doubt you would through something of this nature.

[assaultedramen]

Tch.

[truthsnomiracle]

[Edgeworth takes a sip of the cup of soup he's holding.]

Now, if there's nothing else, shall we leave each other to our respective business here?

[Miki stomps off with a low growl, searching for someone who wont piss her off as much.]
