Summary
An errant strand of jet black hair bobs to and fro as he pores over Miles’ face. "Edgeworth? You with me?"
He’s surrounded by an emulsified blurb of noises: easy laughs, accompanying shouts, a beat. Miles isn’t feeling quite up to a lengthy conversation about his rationale, not when he’s hell bent on convincing himself that Wright is happy, he is happy, that the fire brewing inside of him is a fluke, and that perhaps it was time for him to move forward with his therapy sessions—
“I was asking why you did it.”
If he were to tell Wright that he already knew the answer: that he'd been spurred into action due to his creed, his pursuit of justice, he knows he’d only be propagating a half-truth. A secret by omission. In other words, a lie. “I wanted to help you,” he says, earnestly.
Wright's shoulders rise and fall, an even rhythm. He takes a deep breath in, and the silence scatters. “Why?”
Miles Edgeworth does not long for more than he’s already been given.Sometimes, though, he thinks about it. Day 16 of Fictober: “No, I’m not okay”
