[How the heck--yes okay he is not questioning that.]

Manga's just another word for comics. Books with pictures, basically.

As for lawyering, well, when I get a chance to uncover the truth, or defend someone in court, that's the best feeling in the world, pretty much.

[foxpas]

Oh... Such as "doujins"?

I see. "Uncovering the truth" means you are a detective, too?

[imfine1111one]

. . .[A look of why do you even know what those are.]Er, yes only more official, not fanworks.

Detectives and lawyers are two separate entities. Detectives investigate, and lawyers use the gathered clues to defend their clients and clear false charges.

[foxpas]

[a very creepy person and an unfortunately trusting nature]

Um... I see, I think... They gather the clues, and you put them together?

[imfine1111one]

Exactly! We work together sometimes, but most detectives are on the prosecutor's side of things. It's really the courtroom that separates us.

[foxpas]

I see...

[She seems to be very aware of what a prosecutor is, anyway.]

... Why would those gathering evidence be partial to one side?

[imfine1111one]

Well--think of it this way. When police go to make an arrest, they go for the most likely suspect, correct? So then the detectives follow up, making sure they have enough evidence and the right suspect. And then the Prosecutor steps in to put it all together, present the criminal's motives and methods, and put them behind bars.

So they all work together and sort of flow to one another naturally. The odds are stacked against the suspect--that's where defense attorneys like me come in. If it weren't for us looking at things from a new perspective, a lot more innocent people would be in jail.

[foxpas]

It makes sense... It is the duty of a knight to make sure the ones who are arrested are the right ones. But such a method is only worth as much as the honor of the knights partaking in it...

You are the check, then, to make sure their power cannot be abused.

[imfine1111one]

That's a factor, true. Thankfully most of the prosecutors and detectives I've dealt with have been fine. [Except for the one spy and his own boss doop doop.]

That's a good way to put it, yeah. Ideally we all come to understand the truth, for better or worse.

[foxpas]

Is the truth ever worse?

[imfine1111one]

[OFFICE STARE AT CAMERA....]

It's a mixed bag.

[foxpas]

... Truly? I feel the truth is always preferable.

[imfine1111one]

Oh, I agree, it's just sometimes the truth is hard to take. No matter what though, it must always be revealed.

[foxpas]

That is also regrettably true...

[She seems troubled by something, but isn't going to say anything more on that.]

Ah, we will be arriving momentarily.

[imfine1111one]

[It's fine, neither of their social links are high enough for Truth Talks just yet.]

--already? That's surprising. And way less scary than I thought. [So long as he continues not to look out any windows.]

[foxpas]

[And neither of them are arrested enough, either.]

If you talk to someone, it goes faster and alleviates the fear, does it not?

[imfine1111one]

Yeah, I guess so. . .but I'll still feel better when we stop moving!

[foxpas]

... Do you want to just close your eyes until we are there?

[imfine1111one]

. . .

[Does that 8|]

[foxpas]

[... awkwardly pats his shoulder.

good job, apollo.

AND THEN SMASH CUT TO THE WAYSTATION I GUESS]

It is not to my taste, but it seems that many here like this manner of place.

[imfine1111one]

[They made it, it's a miracle. Apollo's finally peeking out.]

What even is this place? Just like, a general hang out area at every planet? Like a gas station, only not as creepy as the ones peppered across the desert.

[foxpas]

It seems to be a place around and between planets to stock up on some small supplies, as well as to simply stretch your legs. This one appears to be heavily modified, however.

[imfine1111one]

[He looks around and.........wow the place looks kind of sketchy. But he DOES have a little money thanks to the drama last month, this could be his only chance in a while to do some shopping.]

. . ."heavily modified?" I hope the other stops look less skeevy. But there are places to buy things, right? I should get some more writing utensils.

[foxpas]

Yes, though the money is somehow moved without any physical coin. It is rather uncanny.

[CREDIT CARDS ARE WEIRD AND EVIL MAGIC.]

Writing utensils?

[imfine1111one]

. . . [Buddy.]

Mm, that's right. Some new pens, a sturdier notepad. I've been taking notes up til this point but I didn't really have much on me. This way I can properly record everything!
