I'm glad you're alright. But those other things do sound concerning... Anything you need help with?

voice

[flaredo]

No, it's fine... Naoki's powers are actually sort of dangerous for a lot of people, so it's better this way.

voice

[bewrightback]

Oh! Oh... okay. [Ridiculous powers are one thing I can't do much about...]

Then at least... I don't think I have to tell you to be careful.

voice

[flaredo]

You really don't... I was hoping everyone else was having a better time of it.

voice

[bewrightback]

Well, I guess I'm fulfilling that hope. But I wish there was more I could do to help everyone else who's having trouble.

voice

[flaredo]

I guess you could go out and offer yourself as a guide... person to the blind people, but...

voice

[bewrightback]

I could do that, couldn't I? That would be a nice chance to help...

...

...But please don't tell me that's literally the only thing I can do...

voice

[flaredo]

... Well, you could probably do more? I don't know what everyone else is going through right now.

voice

[bewrightback]

Fair enough!

Maybe there's... people who can't hear, either! ...I'll have to look into sign language...

voice

[flaredo]

I don't think suddenly deaf people are going to be able to understand that.

voice

[bewrightback]

...On second thought, written messages might work just fine! So I guess that makes... one more thing I can get done!

voice

[flaredo]

You do kinda seem like the one adult who tries to get a lot done anyway...

[ But maybe she's wrong?? ]

voice

[bewrightback]

[I try all the time... in this institution!]

Is that a good thing or a bad thing? I can't be the only adult around here trying like that...

voice

[flaredo]

You're... probably not? Hopefully...

[ Edgeworth's having issues, though. ]

voice

[bewrightback]

Right! Let's keep hoping. [I bet Edgeworth and Iris are on the ball at least.]

But, um, aside from all of that... How've you been, Yang? [He's sounding a little more serious now.]

voice

[flaredo]

Me...? I'd kind of like a break.

[ But she does sound more like herself than she has in awhile, even if she's not at full-level energy and exuberance. She may never be like that again. ]

voice

[bewrightback]

[Phoenix does think something along those lines before you answer.]

I - I hear you. I wish it could be possible to take a vacation... one that isn't sponsored by CERES or the spirits.

voice

[flaredo]

Yeah, unfortunately, that doesn't leave a whole lot of options.

[ Like. None. None at all. ]

voice

[bewrightback]

Right, unfortunately... At least until we get out of this mess.

voice

[flaredo]

One mess at a time.

[ It's really how she's managing. ]

voice

[bewrightback]

I guess that's the best way to look at it.

I'll get my broom.

voice

[flaredo]

Trust me, if I thought a broom could solve all this...

[ Instead of having to chase Naoki down... ]

voice

[bewrightback]

...then our victory would really be a clean sweep, I know.

voice

[flaredo]

... Seriously don't quit your day job.

voice

[bewrightback]

...Tough crowd. [He says sarcastically, but punctuated by a soft chuckle.]
