(1) An Introduction, No Matter How Brief:

[hadhefidelity.livejournal.com]

Adjusting quickly is something that I am not unaccustomed to, especially when there are those clients who are in need of my immediate aid. I will make a short introduction, as I would rather not surprise anyone with my current means of smoothing out the obvious folds in our current legal system. It's quite the mess.

Hello Babylon, my name is Kristoph Gavin. I'm a Defense Attorney. Haha, yes, make all the dirty lawyer jokes you wish, I'm familiar with them all.

Since my arrival this morning, I've acquired a handful of cases from all different directions. I assure everyone I'm working with the utmost care on every case that passes through my hands. I know that some of the citizens of this community are currently facing false charges and penalties (also known as "strikes") after a series of murders last week, as well as other events prior to that. I intend to rectify that. I would also like to offer myself to anyone else in need of a defense attorney.

I simply haven't the time right now to find an office, so my current apartment will have to be adequate for the time being. Please feel free to drop by and introduce yourself. I would like if those who are currently facing penalties to contact me. It's always an easier journey into legal proceedings with an attorney at your side. I would appreciate all the patience and cooperation my clients can offer.

It's a pleasure to be here. I have my own inquiries and comments to share, but I'll keep them to myself until a better time. This distraction, however brief, was enough to refresh my focus. I assure you that after all of these passing events, that we will all come to the truth. I very willingly make myself part of this community, for the very least, to see that through.

Also, I need the number for some good take-out.

You're a defense attorney? I worked for one once! Well, sort of... it was kind of only for a couple days! And it was a long time ago...

Anyway, I think what you're doing is really great, sir! People need to be properly defended!

[hadhefidelity.livejournal.com]

Yes, I agree. There's nothing like throwing lawyers into the midst, is there?

You worked for a defense attorney? If you'd like, we could play a little game where I could guess the name of the attorney's presence you graced.

[perkyscience.livejournal.com]

Really? You can do that? Should I give you a hint, maybe?

[hadhefidelity.livejournal.com]

Do you think I need one?

[perkyscience.livejournal.com]

No, but there are a lot of defense attorneys out there, aren't there?

[hadhefidelity.livejournal.com]

Not many that were good friends with Mr. Phoenix Wright.

[perkyscience.livejournal.com]

Really? You're good friends?! That's amazing!

Mr. Wright is one of the best attorneys I've ever seen. He practically saved my life! I owe him a lot!

[hadhefidelity.livejournal.com]

He added a certain something to the courtroom, I will give him that.

I see, that doesn't surprise me. Ms. Skye, is it?

[perkyscience.livejournal.com]

Yes, sir! You can call me Ema!

[hadhefidelity.livejournal.com]

Of course, Ema. Have you been helping the police with the current cases?

[perkyscience.livejournal.com]

Oh, no, I have a different job! I'm not qualified to help the police quite yet, not until I graduate from the university! I still have a lot to learn.

[hadhefidelity.livejournal.com]

I'm sure you'll be quite the investigator one day. I'll look forward to working with you.

[perkyscience.livejournal.com]

Me too, Mr. Gavin, sir!

[captnkennit.livejournal.com]

Hello there, Mr. Gavin.

I think I would like to arrange an interview.

[hadhefidelity.livejournal.com]

I've been expecting you, Mr. Kennit. Your hearing is quite soon, isn't it?

Do I need to make a visit to the detention center?

[captnkennit.livejournal.com]

I am not currently at the detention centre. I felt it to be unsafe after the recent action, but if that hinders my case in any way I'm sure I can plan a... temporary return.

[hadhefidelity.livejournal.com]

Then why don't you come by my office? From there, we can see what plan of action would be most beneficial for you, Mr. Kennit.

[captnkennit.livejournal.com]

Captain Kennit, and I'll be sure to drop by.

[hadhefidelity.livejournal.com]

Of course, Captain Kennit.

[behemothed]

Do we have to go back to prison?

[hadhefidelity.livejournal.com]

That's the question at hand, is it not? I can only say that it depends on the circumstances.

Crimes you've committed, crimes that were falsified as your actions—now, which one is the truth? Why don't you come by? If you're innocent, there should be no need to go back to prison.

[sharkish]

Ah, you'll really help us?!

Thank you so much, sir, Agito really didn't do anything!!

[notwalking]

I'm Charlie Dalton, and I think we'll be meeting a lot under these circumstances.

[tokencommoner]

You're a defense attorney? I wasn't even aware that there was a court system in place here.

[hadhefidelity.livejournal.com]

Of course. It would be a terrible place if a defense attorney couldn't defend those who need it the most.

[hadhefidelity.livejournal.com]

Ah, yes, that's the problem, isn't it? It seems that there are far too many here who have been taking the penalties for crimes that they didn't commit. I can't say that I will change anything at all, but I would at least like to pursue the truth.

[hadhefidelity.livejournal.com]

It's a pleasure, Mr. Dalton.

That seems to be the case. I hope I fulfill your expectations for defense.

[notwalking]

You really can just call me Charlie.

If you're willingly taking on this many cases, you must be good.

[hadhefidelity.livejournal.com]

Indeed, Charlie. I would say that, or a very noble cause.

[notwalking]

Then I guess I don't have as much to worry about as I thought. When can I meet with you?

[hadhefidelity.livejournal.com]

Is right now suitable, Charlie?

[notwalking]

The sooner the better. I'll see you soon, Mr. Gavin.

[hostbu]

Isn't it great, Haruhi? You can follow your dream!

[tokencommoner]

That's a very admirable goal, sir.

[tokencommoner]

I was planning on it anyway, but it'll be nice to have someone who's already done it ahead of me.

[hadhefidelity.livejournal.com]

As it should be for any lawyer, don't you think?

Ms. Fujioka, is it? Mr. Petrelli mentioned you.

[tokencommoner]

I can't disagree with you!

Petrelli-san, in spite of his current rather unfortunate circumstances, has been very kind to me over the past few months. Yes, I'm Fujioka Haruhi. It's a pleasure to meet you, Gavin-san.

[hadhefidelity.livejournal.com]

The pleasure is all mine, Ms. Fujioka. Perhaps I'll take Mr. Petrelli's recommendation. I may need an assistant.
