"That's good to hear. He seemed a little... lost, you know? I'm glad he can settle a little, now."

[agoodname]

I am, as well. He's...had a difficult road.

[enigmaster]

"I can tell. I don't know a lot of the details, the files I got were kind of bare, but... Well. Anyone can tell just from being around him."

[Harvey feels for him, really he does.]

"Wish I saw less kids like that in this job."

[agoodname]

Unfortunately, as kind as the world can be, it can also be quite merciless if you have the bad luck to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. [he smiles, a little] At least they have someone looking out for them, who will step in on their behalf.

[enigmaster]

"Hm. Well. All the better that Edward met you, huh?"

[agoodname]

[aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhH??!!! Oswald immediately goes red, flushing, glancing away] Ah, well...I would hazard that I'm the lucky one. [BUT HE'S....STILL PRETTY OBVIOUSLY FLATTERED BY THE COMPLIMENT....]

[enigmaster]

[Harvey smiles a little.]

"It can be both." [And he gives Oswald a quick pat on the shoulder, before stepping away.] "Well, I'll leave you to it, then. Good luck."

[agoodname]

[alskdhflskdhfs] ...yes. Thank you. It, ah...it was nice to see you, Harvey.

[enigmaster]

"You too, Oswald."

[Annnnd off he goes.]

[agoodname]

[aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh compliments from Harvey Dent why is that still just such an amazing thing help him. BUT YES HE'LL try and just...focus on his research again until lunch is over in ten minutes]

[enigmaster]

[Are you going to be home on time or late today, Oswald?]

[agoodname]

[today on time. He has some cases he could stay late and work on but he doesn't want to so he'll just.

put in some extra time tomorrow instead

He just wants to go home and spend time with Edward. Besides he can do some work on the couch or something.]

[enigmaster]

[Edward is watching TV on the couch and holding his phone, when Oswald gets home. He looks a little annoyed... right up until he registers the sound of Oswald coming in.] Ah... Welcome back.

[agoodname]

I'm home~ [he hums a bit, noting the look of annoyance]

How was your day?

[enigmaster]

Ah... Fine, really.

[When Oswald comes closer, he'll notice the channel on right now. It's... one of those shows where a "psychic" talks to people's dead relatives.]

...Yours?

[agoodname]

Another ridiculously busy and stressful day, but I did talk to Harvey. [and he drops his case files on the table, before moving to sit down next to Edward] He said he'd be happy to come.

[enigmaster]

Ah... I'm glad... [Two whole (living) people at his birthday might not be much to some, but for Edward it's more than he ever could've hoped for.]

[agoodname]

I thought so. It will be nice to have him.

[.....he frowns, glancing at the TV]

...any particular reason why you've chosen this show in particular to watch?

[enigmaster]

I came across it while looking for something to watch. Then I got angry. Now I'm sending them a lot of emails.

[agoodname]

[he is. trying so hard. not to smile]

Oh? What about?

[enigmaster]

About the fact that what they're doing is a scam and they should go to jail.

[agoodname]

Well, I can't really disagree with you on that. These things are usually a scam most of the time, aren't they?

[enigmaster]

Pretty much always. It's just... some asshole doing cold reading or hot reading to make money off of someone's grief.

I dislike them.

[agoodname]

I can't imagine why. [dryly]

[enigmaster]

There's literally a ghost standing next to him and he has no idea. Honestly.
