Once the Honeymoon is Over... [Video]
[The face on the camera is tired, the look in Diarmuid's eyes making it clear that the source of his weariness isn't physical, but mental and emotional as it so often has been since he arrived here.]
Has anyone see my brother? Ah...you probaly know him better as Lancer. I know he is still in the tower because his belongings are here and his name is still on the door, but I cannot find him anywhere and I have looked. Those who know my skills know quickly I can do that.
I am worried because I just remembered something he said to Jason a while back. He said he would volunteer for his next experiement and since this is Jason's month in charge and so many others have gone missing, I fear for what that means for him.
If anyone has seen him in the last few days, will you please let me know?
[Diarmuid pauses a moment, suddenly looking a lot more uneasy.]
Also, I want to apologize to all the people who were affected by my curse about week ago or got caught up in everything that was going on. For those who don't know, I carry a curse that forces the women who see my face to fall in love with me. It has been mostly inactive in this place but for some reason during the end of March and the beginning of April it flared back to life affecting both men and women. Unfortunately, I have never been able to tell when it is active and when it is not so far too many people were affected before I knew what was going on.
I...do not know why this happened. It has gone inactive again and I think by this time all those affected should have had the effects wear off. If not, take the knowledge that your strange feelings are caused by something outside of you and focus on that...
[Suddenly, he turns away from the screen as if someone has tugged on his arm, which they have. When he speaks his voice is quieter and directed at whoever is standing just off camera.]
Tony, just a moment, okay? I will play with you then.
[Diarmuid turns back to the camera, quiet for a moment as if he is collecting his thoughts and then continues where he left off.]
Focusing on the fact that your feelings are not your own will help you overcome the effects sooner. It is not something that worked that well during my first life, but there is a very strong pattern of it working here...
[There is a sudden scuffling behind Diarmuid and he is yanked away from the camera. The scuffling continues as his voice drifts back toward the terminal.]
Tony! Tony wait! I'm not done...
Gah! Does anyone know how to stop an alien abduction?
==============================
(OOC: Diarmuid's responses will come a few hours later when he has given Tony the attention that the little gray alien seems to want so badly.)

I'm.....still considering it. [Although Dia's offer is becoming more and more appealing every time something happens in this damn tower.]
She's a young woman from my world. Nineteen years of age, dark hair, often wears a short purple and pink kimono. She's a bit.....odd, so to speak. [Nice way to talk about your friends, Edgeworth.] Happens to be a spirit medium.
Video
Unfortunately, I don't recall seeing or hearing about someone matching that description so perhaps you did not after all. However, if she works with spirits and the unseen it is no surprise that she may seem a little...odd...to you.
[His eyes narrow slightly, not missing the tone of Edgeworth's words.]
However, those people deserve the greatest respect because of their talents. I hope you realize that and treat her with the respect she deserves.

That is good to hear. Too many people do not give respect to those who deal with that kind of thing. It is a dangerous job at times and one very few can perform well. Is she an associate of yours then? Someone from your world?

Back to Maya.]
In a sense, yes. I was wondering if you could, say, keep an eye out on her? Maya, let's say, is the type to get into trouble occasionally. [This is Edgeworth talk for: I'm worried about my friend and I don't want to see her in danger.]
Video
He smiles gently.]
I would be glad to help out as much as I can. The tower is large, but I will keep an eye out for her and feel free to let her know she can seek me out if she needs my assistance. Perhaps we could all meet sometime?
Re: Video
For a long while after the incident, Miles Edgeworth had refused to believe in spirit-channeling and anything else supernatural. He did not resent Maya for it, though. The fact that Maya was a good person aside, the spirit medium in the incident happened to be her own mother. Maya had not seen or heard from her mother for years after that case so, in a way, she was a victim of the whole incident as well.
Then there was the Hazakura Temple murder, where one of the witnesses turned out to be an executed convict in the body of a spirit medium. Not only that but Edgeworth was introduced to some bizarre gem which somehow revealed bizarre locks whenever somebody was hiding something. Ever since that event, even the young prosecutor began to realize that there were perhaps some bizarre things in the world that could not be explained. That did not mean that he would necessarily stop being skeptical about other out-of-the-ordinary things, though.
Then Animus happened.]
Perhaps that is for the best. I don't why Maya would object to that.
