So, my favorite character in Apollo Justice is far and away Ema Skye. So, I wanted to start working on a little song for her for the second day of the investigation--when she's in a really foul mood, but then you find footprints together! I'm not sure how the investigation days will be condensed, at the moment, so I tried to keep it flexible.
I haven't actually finished the lyrics, and am a little bit stuck. I would love to work on them with you guys! So if you have ideas, share 'em!
Here are the important beats I think the song needs to cover:
>She flunked out of becoming a forensic investigator
>She considers Trucy and Apollo to be friends now, since this song takes place after they give her the fingerprinting powder (though we could probably reconfigure things to have this song cover that scene as well)
>Wright was disbarred in part by Klavier Gavin
>She REALLY HATES Klavier Gavin
(You would never guess I am a hardcore Klema shipper by how vehemently I insist that she hates his guts during pretty much all of Apollo Justice.)
LYRICS:
(KLAVIER is likely leaving the scene as APOLLO and TRUCY enter, since you run in with him right before this scene in game, and he warns you that Ema is NOOOOT IN A GOOD MOOD today.)
EMA:
(munching and grumbling)
APOLLO:
...Looks like today’s forecast calls for gloomy Skyes.
TRUCY:
...Maybe we should come back later?
EMA:
Hey. If you guys are gonna talk about someone behind their back, can you at least do it quietly?
TRUCY:
--Eep! Sorry, Detective Skye--
EMA:
(sung)
I REALLY HATE THAT GUY (Trucy: Who??)
Did you see him
Can you BELIEVE him
Leaving me to do his job
Like he's too good for legwork
That preening snob.
(spoken) ...Sorry, did you need something?
(I feel like there should be another verse here to transition from "Wow I hate that guy" into "Let's do SCIENCE")
...Well, now that he's gone
I think that you and I will get along
Partners in science--you and you and me
This look on your faces makes it plain to see
That you hunger to let science find the truth and set it free!
So come on, let's get cooking! I think I have the key--
(Spoken)
Let's get spraying!
TRUCY:
Spraying what...?
EMA:
Luminol, of course!
(NOTE: It occurs to me that you don't actually use Luminol in this scene, but I kind of want to go over all of her forensic tools in the song?)
(Needs some kind of transition verse)
(sung)
Did you see that??
Can you believe that?
Just a spritz and then you'll see
How powerful science can be!
(then some other stuff happens and I run out of ideas, but here's more about how she hates Klavier:)
A prosecutor should be more... simmerous!
This guy? He's just... Glimmerous!
He's a flirt! He's a fop!
He thinks that he can drop
All his paperwork on me
While he goes out on a spree
So that's what I have!! LET'S COLLABORATE
