A friend. It's...well, it's weird, hearing that from Edgeworth, of all people, but it's also sort of...amusing, in a way, and it only makes Phoenix's smile grow. "I see."
--only to cause it to vanish and be replaced by wide eyes of shock at that, his pace slowing abruptly to a stop as, for a second, he takes that literally.
"You saw your--"
...oh.
Wait. Blackout. Black = Hallucinations. Doy. He mentally facepalms at himself for not immediately coming to that conclusion, and instead...his brows furrow with concern, and the look in his eyes is one of sympathy.
"It's...it's just a blackout. There's no one here that can hurt you." Quietly, and with the tone of someone who knows that this has probably already been said like ten times already, but it can't do any harm to say it again, right?
...or so he's saying. What aren't you telling him, Phoenix? About how there's a murderous woman skulking around the halls right at this very minute? The thought makes something in Phoenix's chest clench with anxiety, and he maneuvers his free arm around Edgeworth's shoulders protectively, keeping him as close as he can without tripping over the kid's feet.
