Well, I finally did it. I passed the bar in the city. Now you've officially got one more prosecutor.

That being said, does anyone have any cases that they want me to look at? I just got here, but I'd like to start working already. My life usually ends up being the office. Besides, with all the criminals here, there's bound to be something I can do.

Oh, and more good news. I've got an apartment to myself now. It's pretty shabby, but the rent's cheap and all the utilities work. That's really all I need. So, I was thinking, maybe we could have a housewarming party. And by 'housewarming party', I mean we all come to my place, eat some chips and drinks and just...hang out, I guess. Maybe I can rent a movie.

I am trying to imagine Ivy at a housewarming

Congratulations, Mister Dent.

xD That would be awesome for the awkward.

[notthebatman.livejournal.com]

Thanks.

So, do you want to come to the party?

god and he had to invite her

[apathynotenvy.livejournal.com]

Honestly it depends on the hour.

That is, I think, the best news I have heard in some time.

Congratulations, Mr. Dent.

Thank you.

Oh, and your last post? The one about working within the system? I agree. Vigilantes are too much of a wild card. You don't know if they'll be helpful or harmful to the investigation. Granted, the one I knew was actually pretty helpful, but they can't all be like that. A guy in a cape isn't a replacement for the law-he can just act as a helper.

[private] Edgeworth is delighted to hear this. Srsly.

[bluffing-ruffle.livejournal.com]

I quite agree. It is normally enough trouble dealing with and coordinating the officers themselves; asking for full cooperation and organization from people who insist upon working alone is an exercise in futility.

Ah--it should ease your mind to know that several replied to it with offers of help. Most are on the younger side, as well--I believe it to be a good sign for the future.

Congratulations.

[notthebatman.livejournal.com]

Thanks.

Housewarming party, huh?

[notthebatman.livejournal.com]

Yeah. With all that's been happening lately, a party would be a good idea.

[luckpuns.livejournal.com]

You're right about that.

The city's getting worse, not that I'm surprised.

[shulkie-00.livejournal.com]

Congratulations, Counselor.

I passed too, but I still haven't decided if I want to work as a prosecutor or a defense attorney. I think we need someone to defend the heroes here in civil cases, but I don't want anything to do with some of the criminals that have turned up. I've had to work with scum before, and I don't want a repeat of that.

[notthebatman.livejournal.com]

Hey, congratulations to you too.

Both of your options are really valid points. We need people to put the criminals behind bars, but we need people to keep the heroes safe. Well, if you're really stuck you can just flip a coin.

[apathynotenvy.livejournal.com]

You should avoid those sorts of...habits.

[shulkie-00.livejournal.com]

I'd rather not leave a decision like that to chance.

[nanofragment.livejournal.com]

Congrats.

[notthebatman.livejournal.com]

Thanks.

[igotsawarhammer.livejournal.com]

Oooooooooohh what kind of movie?

[notthebatman.livejournal.com]

Well, if you're coming it'll definitely have to be kid friendly. Not anything R-rated.

Got any suggestions?

[phobiaasphyxia.livejournal.com]

Congratulations, Harvey. I'm assuming you'll be restructuring the system in a matter of hours, hm?

[notthebatman.livejournal.com]

Thanks. And yeah, here's hoping. To be honest, there isn't much of a legal system here. Restructuring it would be pretty easy.

[rwb-hero.livejournal.com]

Congratulations Mr. Dent, I'm looking forward to seeing what you can do with the legal system here.

[notthebatman.livejournal.com]

Thanks. Don't worry, I'm going to start working on getting things in order as soon as I can.

Are you coming to the party? The more the merrier.

[immortalitea.livejournal.com]

When you say 'we all', who exactly are you referring to?

[notthebatman.livejournal.com]

Anybody who wants to come. I'm not that picky.
