Eva and I put our Ace Attorney snark on hold

for months and months due to homework conflicts, but she's off from school next week and no homework so we finally finished case #4.

I tell you, there's nothing so enjoyable as reading all of Phoenix and Miles' lines in the most over-dramatic way possible, making sure to stick all the innuendos.

And now we've just started case #5, and all I can say is this: Yes, Phoenix, that chessboard does mean something. It's all in the subtext.

Also, this game really plays fast and loose with the idea of "justice" sometimes, not to mention legal ethics. I'm no lawyer, but I'm fairly certain that Edgeworth should not be allowed to prosecute a case against his boss, especially not when the body was found in his own car, stabbed with his own knife. That's got to be at least three different conflicts of ethics.

Spent the better part of the day trying to get this computer to load.

Critical update my ass. It'd get to 95% and then freeze. Had to do a heck of a lot of troubleshooting and I'm still not sure what the problem was, how I fixed it, or whether or not it's really fixed at all.
