11:32 p.m.

Miles Edgeworth sat upon his bed, back rested against the headboard. He had a book in hand, reading a particular passage on cosmic rays when the narrating astrophysicist had delved into a particularly fond memory of his childhood in which he would hide and wait in a tree after class for another young friend of his, in order to procure a particular piece of confectionary that was otherwise forbidden to him at home. This friend would provide him with his sugary fix while he would help his friend with his homework. Clearly, a mutually beneficial arrangement.

...Not that it had much to do with cosmic ray spallation, in any case.

Edgeworth smirked, reminded promptly of a fond memory of his own. In his youth, he was also quite fond of climbing trees. Such a simple, relaxing activity gave the shy, introverted boy a moment of solace whenever he wasn't being drilled for an upcoming flute recital or playing a rousing game of chess with... well, the faceless person in his memory.

He could almost picture himself on one of the top-most branches of his favourite tree as a child. He would lay on his back as his eyes traced out patterns of sky shining through the leaves, as his little fingers stripped away small chunks of bark.

"Miles?"

In the younger form of his memories, he looked down at his spiky-haired friend standing at the base of the trunk with those large, blue eyes peering back up at him.

"Yesterday, I was Nick," he sighed, exasperated at having to explain this, "and tomorrow, I don't know yet!"

"Why 'Gravity Man'? What can he do?"

[takethat]

"Control gravity, of course!"

Phoenix rolled his eyes and then turned to make a dramatic leap into the air. "He can jump as high as he wants to! Or he can make himself weigh two tons because he might need to be really heavy for something!"

[cantacquityou]

"Oh, I get it! So you can...squash evil-doers by sitting on them!"

[takethat]

That might've been meant as a jab, but Phoenix nodded seriously. "Yes! Now you understand!"

[cantacquityou]

"In that case, I'll call you Fat Man!" He then proceeded to sing to another well-known superhero tune, "Na na na na na na na na, FAT MAAAAAN!"

[takethat]

"No!" He shoved Miles and frowned. "Gravity Man isn't fat! He's just about gravity!"

[cantacquityou]

Miles laughed. "I think 'Fat Man' sounds cool."

[takethat]

"Then you be Fat Man!"

[cantacquityou]

"But I'm already the Defender! I can't have two special powers!"

[takethat]

"And I'm already Gravity Man! So there!"
