I mean. You're the first person who's ever believed me, for one...

[agoodname]

...oh. Well.

[he just kind of....shrugs a little, uncertainly]

....after I thought about it, and with that kind of evidence....I couldn't just ignore it.

[enigmaster]

Most people would. And have. And... I don't know. After you left, when you got mad, I didn't think you'd come back again. But... you did.

[agoodname]

Of course I did. [his eyes flick up to Edward's] I told you I don't drop cases, no matter what.

[enigmaster]

...You did. [He takes a sip from his wine again.] I still wasn't expecting it. And your entrance was... um...

[agoodname]

[he flushes a bit at that, but still doesn't look away from Edward] Not my most elegant, I just wanted to make sure I got there in time.

[enigmaster]

No, it was fine. It was um... [...He hides his face a little with his glass.] ...kind of cool, I guess...

[agoodname]

[. . . . . . . . . . . what] You.....thought I was cool?

[enigmaster]

I mean, it was a very dramatic entrance at just the right moment, I don't know. [he may have swooned]

[agoodname]

[and yep he's blushing again, but this time not from embarrassment--but still eh can feel it spread across his face and into his ears--and he's making an attempt to hide a smile that he can't quite help in his wine glass] Oh. [....] Thank you.

[enigmaster]

...I should've asked if you were okay, afterwards, but I was too surprised you were even there at all.

[agoodname]

I couldn't, I mean--[ahsldfhs] It's fine. I was fine. I-I mean I wasn't fine, my car went in a ravine, but I wasn't permanently injured or anything.

[enigmaster]

Yeah, that... that did happen, huh. [like hey what the fuck]

[agoodname]

It did. [ Oswald's mouth twists a bit, frowning] I wanted to check on the brakes afterward, but they told me the car was too totaled, so they'd just gotten rid of it. [there's a hint of suspicion there, definitely]

[enigmaster]

...Someone must have been very upset with you.

[Listen, he don't trust like that.]

[agoodname]

I did have that thought. [he swirls his wine a bit] Whoever wanted you framed really wanted you framed.

[enigmaster]

...They're probably not very happy that I was acquitted then. [That's. Probably fine.]

[agoodname]

...that as well. [he presses his lips together] We'll have to figure out who wanted that so badly. And find a way to take care of them. Otherwise they might come after you again.

[enigmaster]

Mhm.

[why is his life like this]

I really picked a bad night to go for a walk...

[agoodname]

....I'd say so, yes. [He huffs a bit] Either it was random or planned somehow, though I can't really imagine how, considerint what you've told me.

[enigmaster]

I can't really imagine that either. It was just kind of chance. I mean, I probably would've stayed away from the body entirely if not for the ghost, too, and they definitely couldn't plan for that...

[agoodname]

No. [the corner of his mouth quirks just slightly] That would be nigh impossible to plan for.

[enigmaster]

...Can't really fulfill that request now, either. Now that I think of it. [... edward your priorities]

[agoodname]

[eyebrow arch] What was it?

[enigmaster]

He wanted me to bring his necklace to his boyfriend.

His family doesn't know about him, so... you know.
