I was hoping my next chapter wouldn't be until after Valentine's Day, but I got a BOMBASS cover from another fanfiction writer called cutekitty5597 (aka Tash Curry) and I just had to show it off with an update. Thanks for the love and tight pic!
Chapter 18: Fool of a Client
"Neku, remind me again why you felt the need to appeal your charges…you were caught red-handed. Literally! The paint hadn't even dried up from your hands when they arrested you!"
"Aw, shut up, Rhyme. Bail was bad enough; why do I have to pay a fine too?"
"Because you were GUILTY!"
"I was just doing what you said! I just wanted Shiki to notice me…"
"Oh, she noticed you all right…along with half of the city."
"Well…if that makes her like me, maybe it was worth it."
"Let's see if the judge agrees with you on that."
"There's no way the judge will convict me. I'm sure to get off scot-free!"
"You have that much confidence in your attorney?"
"My attorney? No, I'll be representing myself."
"Oh, Neku…a man who is his own lawyer has a fool for a client."
"Doesn't matter if the client is a fool as long as the lawyer is smart."
"I…I can't even…you ARE your lawyer!"
"So I'm smart?"
"But you're also the client!"
"So I'm lucky I've got such a smart lawyer."
"Maybe I shouldn't have bailed you out. Jail would have done you some good."
"You're lucky I don't sue you for slander."
"Freakin' lawyers…"
