Disclaimer: I like music. You should know this if you've read, oh, anything I've written ever. I blame my parents and the influence of gathering around a campfire to sing several times a year. Try it kids, it's fun!
010: Waits For You
Prompt: Something based on the song 'Vienna' by Billy Joel, featuring Edgeworth. Well, the prompt was something like that, anyway.
Wright had to be doing this intentionally.
Every day, without fail, for two weeks now, at least once a day and sometimes as often as three times, Edgeworth had intruded on Wright singing the same song.
"Slow down you crazy child, you're so ambitious for a juvenile… but then if you're so smart tell me why are you still so afraid?"
Wright had it playing in his office. Wright had it playing in his apartment. Wright was sprawled on the floor of his office teaching it to Maya when he should have been seeing about getting a case.
"Where's the fire, what's the hurry about? You better cool it off before you burn it out! You got so much to do and only so many hours in a day!"
Wright was apparently teaching it to all their mutual acquaintances, because Gumshoe was singing it under his breath nearly every time Edgeworth saw him.
"But you know that when the truth is told that you can get what you want… or you can just get old."
Wright was driving him utterly mad.
"You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through When will you realize…"
He kept it up for two months. Edgeworth counted.
It took him that long to reconcile what Wright was saying with what he meant.
"…...Vienna waits for you."
Guardian: There is now a part of me which wants to do this to someone. Damn.
