There's a ladylove or beau in your life you are aiming to please; You seek to prove your love, obtain their affections, or have them swooning off their feet by the end of the night. Or perhaps your intentions are less than pure…Either way, you know this, of course, because you've chosen to bring them here. The Grey Line is an elegant restaurant whose very atmosphere is a recipe for romance, and tonight, everything your special someone needs to have an evening solely dedicated to passionate desire between the two of you will be provided for, to enjoy at your leisure.

Tonight is going to be perfect. Tonight is special.

Let the siren's song of love overwhelm you as you enter; open the doors, and walk inside.

The staff will greet you as an old friend, and take your coats, their friendly smiles a gentle contrast to the elegant decor around them. There's a feeling of euphoria which flows gently through the air, basking all those who attend.

And why shouldn't there be? The very design of the Grey Line is a masterful one, the modernity and sleekness lending to its natural beauty, played up by the fact that the structure of the restaurant itself is set into a shallow bay, with wall to wall glass windows in the main dining room which allow for the majesty of the ocean to be seen with the coming of the tides. By night, underwater lighting installed in the rocks outside attract a strange array of monstrous sea creatures.

You'll be lead back into the grand ballroom and placed at a table of your choice, a live company of instrumentals set back on a higher tier in front which overlooks the dining area.

The colors from the City bleed from the sea with the tide sweeping up the sides of the glass, bleaching it a deep aqua color.

Quiet awe overwhelms you as the soft illumination descends and caresses the faces everyone inside, giving them a soft, gentle look that adds to the undercurrent of tranquil calm.

Now, you're ready. Seated, you can observe who else is here with you, or bask in the ambience of your surroundings. Baskets of wine and chocolates are set at each table, along with a centerpiece of roses.

"Anything that you desire on the menu, sir, madam? Please, order anything you like. Compliments of your host."

Then go tell him.

[ergomaniac]

Maybe I will.

[thelightbringer]

He's right over there.

[ergomaniac]

...Right.

[And yet he still hesitates.]

[thelightbringer]

You have nothing to say to him. You can't tell him to beware of me because I've given you no reason.

[ergomaniac]

This isn't a court of law. "Gut feeling" is perfectly admissible.

[thelightbringer]

So go on.

[Although there is a small twitch of discomfort this time. It's possible Sam will side with Edgeworth. Sam doesn't go off of rumors, but a close friend's word is something else.]

[ergomaniac]

[And yet Edgeworth suffers that same uncertainty. What if Sam sides with Lucifer over him?]

Give me a reason not to.

[thelightbringer]

I'm not afraid of you talking to him. You have nothing to go by but envy.

[ergomaniac]

Envy of what? Your status as someone who wishes to embark upon a physical relationship with him?

[thelightbringer]

Since you already have, it'd be natural to feel that, I'm sure.

[ergomaniac]

[His head whips around. His eyes go wide.]

I...What?

[thelightbringer]

Trying to forget it doesn't mean it didn't happen.

[ergomaniac]

I'm...quite certain I don't know...what you're talking about.

[thelightbringer]

Well, I'll refresh your memory then.

[ergomaniac]

[Edgeworth shakes his head and turns away. His fists are clenched.]

This is foolish. You let your imagination get away from you.

[thelightbringer]

[Sigh. Really, Edgeworth, you made him do this. He reaches forward and touches him, to spark up some of those images of that camping trip.]

[ergomaniac]

[The images seem to last an eternity - of the cherry blossoms, of that evening, of the feelings of guilt and betrayal that followed...Edgeworth stands stock-still while they last, until finally turning, in fury and horror, to knock that hand away.]

You - how - How dare you!

[thelightbringer]

Don't lie to me. I'll know.

[ergomaniac]

[And Edgeworth just glares at him - furious, powerful, defiant.]

You - know nothing of the situation.

[thelightbringer]

[Lucifer smiles and spreads his arms]

So tell me.

[ergomaniac]

[Edgeworth scowls.]

And what entitles you to know?

[thelightbringer]

Because now it involves me. It wouldn't if you weren't so up in arms over Sam getting a little private time with me, but...you are, so....

[ergomaniac]

And so I've already given you perfectly legitimate reasons for why I disapprove of that. There's no need to bring - history into it.

[thelightbringer]

But it's part of why you object.
