Thankfully, no. They're more concerned with keeping me in good spirits; especially the younger ones.

[ the thought makes him smile. aron and beldum don't battle much, which means that their energy is more focused on keeping him company when he doesn't want to open up to his human friends. he appreciates it more than they know. ]

Still, I can't help but worry if I'm putting too much pressure on them. [ he pauses, but he doesn't want to dwell for too long-- ] And how is Pess?

[prosecutory]

[That's always a relief, the Pokémon keeping Steven company. Even though Steven had friends here, it's the Pokémon who've known him for a much longer period of time and therefore know him better.

Edgeworth gives a relaxed smile of his own.]

He's the same; a constant source of companionship.

[A brief pause.] I don't think they feel any pressure from you. They're probably only too happy to oblige.

[geophile]

It's reassuring, isn't it? To have a small part of our worlds by our sides.

[ that much is true. even if they weren't human, his team knows him in a way that most, if not all of the people in the colony do not. there's a special relationship there. ]

I can only hope so. We've been keeping up with our training, but it's difficult to predict what might happen next.

[prosecutory]

[The mention of training makes Edgeworth's smile wane.]

At least they can fight. Pess, on the other hand, was never trained in combat.

...Then again, neither was I until my first foray into a different world.

[He's not talking about Cerealia.]

[geophile]

[ he can tell he's not speaking of cerealia, both from his expression and the the information edgeworth has given him in the past. he's an odd case, in the sense that the world he was taken from was not his own. ]

The one that you resided in before this one, correct?

[ it's something that steven is admittedly curious about. ]

[prosecutory]

That's correct.

[He nods, watching a waiter return with two steaming cups of green tea.]

At least, Pess never experienced that.
