I would be a wonderful asset

[hejhej]

Who: Lisbeth Salander (as Irene Nesser) and Phoenix Wright
When: Forward-dated to Friday, March 23, 10 AM
Where: Wright & Co. Law Offices in Sector Four
Summary: Lisbeth interviews as Irene for Wright's law offices. She needs money to pay her rent due next month.
Warnings: Nope! Lisbeth is playing a professional; she can't curse.

Lisbeth woke up early that morning even though her appointment with Mr. Wright wasn't until 10 AM. She put on a pot of coffee around 7 AM and began her work. After pulling out all of her documents that proved she was in fact Irene Nesser, she showered. She smelled like a summer meadow as she stepped out, walking naked around her apartment. She took cover up to her wasp tattoo on her neck, but did nothing about the dragon tattoo on her shoulder nor the phoenix tattoo on her thigh. After doing that, she carefully removed her piercings and put in rather impressive clear spacers. She was suspicious of the man at Tits for Tats when he said they were virtually invisible unlike the spacers used at home.

After doing so, Lisbeth put on a push-up bra and then changed into her clothes: a lovely green skirt with a maroon blouse that she tucked in. She put on make-up, jewelry, and all of the other things a young professional woman was supposed to have before finally tying up her jet-black, short hair in favor of a blonde wig with fringe bangs and fell like a waterfall over her shoulders. Lisbeth made sure everything looked okay before she grabbed her suitcase and her documents and headed out the door.

Balancing on five inch heels, she walked down from the Tower Apartments towards the address she had lifted from the network's resources. She wasn't in the least bit nervous about this interview. Lisbeth knew she would impress.

She entered the building and told the building's security that she was there to meet with Phoenix Wright. She was given a temporary pass, logged in her entrance time, and took the elevator up.

After checking in with the receptionist at the office, she sat down and waited to be called.

Comments

[hejhej]

[She pauses briefly to think of the question.]

Yes, if the legal procedures weren't followed to a T.

[ace_attorney]

I see. Would you say there are any rules that a person should follow, even over the dictates of the law?

[hejhej]

[She certainly did. She followed her own moral code.]

As long as they are willing to face the ramifications of their actions, then they are allowed to follow their own code. There is a fine line between free will and being told what one can and cannot do.

[ace_attorney]

I agree... Sometimes, your own beliefs may run counter to the law's, and if you're willing to face the consequences -- if it really is a good cause -- then it should be done.

How would you face potential threats and intimidation from people with a stake in cases? Are you prepared to deal with people who won't like Newcomers much-- and those who'll like Newcomers defending other Newcomers even less?

[hejhej]

[A small smile appears on her face.]

I'm used to people not liking me too much.

[ace_attorney]

Good.

...Well, not good, but... That's useful. How so?

[hejhej]

They think I'm too curious. I'll do even the most dangerous thing - without jeopardizing a case - to get the information we need for a trial.

[She smirks.]

I guess you can add 'private investigator' to my resume.

[ace_attorney]

...Really? What kinds of things have you investigated before, Ms. Nesser?

[hejhej]

Financial fraud. I have a knack for numbers. I did this before I joined the Prosecutor General's office, in one of the smaller law firms I worked for.

[ace_attorney]

I see. Okay.

Well, that's all good, Ms. Nesser. Do you have any questions for me?

[hejhej]

[Lisbeth paused, her eyes still on him. She was pretending to think. There wasn't anything she couldn't ask that a little investigating on her own couldn't answer.

She finally blinked, as if coming back from some daydream.]

Nothing comes to mind.

[ace_attorney]

[He nods. Usually, they ask one or two things, but that's fine, too.]

All right. I'll check through things and see what I can offer you in a few days, then.

[hejhej]

[She stands and there's a brief pause before she holds out her hand.]

It was a pleasure meeting you, Mr. Wright. And thank you for interviewing me.

[ace_attorney]

[He takes it.]

Likewise, Ms. Nesser. Thank you for coming in. I'm always glad to see Newcomers interested in the law.

[hejhej]

[She gives him a small smile.]

My pleasure.

[She turned on her heel and made her way out of the office.]
