Summary
It's April of 1985. First Lieutenant Mia Fey of the U. S. Air Force's Strategic Air Command has been assigned to the most unusual post of her career: she will be the Deputy Missile Crew Commander of an outpost deep in the heart of Alaska; the last of the Titan II nuclear missile installations, intended as an experiment to determine the viability of a nuclear defence program in the region. Here, Mia will come to meet the eccentric, ragtag crew of the base, including its witty, laid-back, yet dedicated commander: Captain Lana Skye. At first, things turn out quite well, as Mia accustoms herself to the peculiar social workings of life on the base.
But things take a turn for the worse when commander and deputy commander find themselves staring face-to-face at the worst case scenario one can imagine in a place like this.
How will they handle the crisis? Can the crew of the remote, isolated base keep it together? What will be the consequences of their actions?
Written for the 2024 Ace Attorney WLW Minibang. Inspired by the 1984 film Threads. LanaMia Cold War AU, no actual violence. Updates on Sundays; currently on hold.

Summary
Phoenix Wright has a secret. He can hide it from the world, but he can’t hide it from himself. At least, not anymore. When stumbling over one old memory digs up one after another, the dominos fall and he finds himself in a place where he hasn’t been in many years, in more ways than one. Here, in the deepest chasm of his soul, he must go face-to-face with something that he has avoided for a long, long time.
(Full synopsis in initial author's note).
Dedicated to WingSongHalo for starting me on the path of fanfiction-writing by showing me, through the writer’s art, what fanfiction really is and what it can be.
This story is also dedicated to the memory of Marcel Dupré: a French organist, composer, and music teacher, whose work and aspects of his life greatly influenced this piece.

Miles Edgeworth: Warrior of Neo Olde Los Angeles by Cesar_Franck
Fandoms: 逆転裁判 | Gyakuten Saiban | Ace Attorney

Summary
As much as he’s loath to admit it, Miles Edgeworth’s Steel Samurai obsession is not as much of a well-kept secret as he’d hoped. Case in point: he receives an offer to play the character in an upcoming theatrical adaptation of the show.
Miles Edgeworth is going to be the Steel Samurai.
Meanwhile, Phoenix Wright decides that enough is enough, and that the time has come for him to try and do what he's wanted to do for so very, very long.
Between him and Edgeworth, what he wants is more than just friendship.
Will Miles succeed in his role as his beloved hero? Will Phoenix be able to make his true feelings for Edgeworth clear and get what he has been pining for for so long? And how will the sudden appearance of a vigilante hero in the city of Los Angeles affect both of these goals?
Takes place post-SoJ.

Oh, what is a loving husband to do?

But his daughter is standing at the prosecution’s bench.

Summary
Franziska von Karma and Maya Fey are reunited under relatively (at least, for them) ordinary circumstances; a murder case which both intend to take on in court.
However, when ordinary circumstances quickly become not so and one of the two are incapacitated such that they require the constant companionship of the other, the increased amount of time they spend together, the sudden dependence, and the rather unusual changes that came about, force the pair to confront their long-simmered feelings for each other. Will their new arrangement become permanent? How will the two react to the sudden changes? Will those same changes affect how they feel about one another?
Takes place vaguely post-trilogy era but pre-Apollo Justice and beyond.

Summary
Time has passed since Franziska von Karma had tea at the household of the Lees, but her resolve to confront Phoenix Wright has not diminished. She just… hasn’t found the right opportunity, that’s all.
Miles Edgeworth never thought he’d be finding himself about to attend the type of social gathering that frequently occurs around the end of the year (having a rather significant childhood-related reason therefor), but he has plans of his own, and it just so happens that attending said gathering would be in his best interests. When in doubt, there’s no better person to depend on than his closest and oldest friend, after all.
Phoenix Wright will probably never be able to enjoy Christmas the same way ever again, given how much his life had changed in such a short time, but perhaps one last hurrah would be in order while he still had the chance.
Takes place around Christmas-time post-disbarment, with lots of good old Christmas fluff. Part 2 (the conclusion) of the ‘tea’ saga.

Summary
A strange vision calls a certain individual and their friends into the depths of the old world in search of its mysterious origin. What are they looking for? How were they called there? What awaits them in the land of thieves and phantoms?
Inspired by the vampire films of the silver screen. Notably, F.W. Murnau/Prana Film’s Nosferatu: Eine Symphonie des Grauens (1922) and Tod Browning/Universal Pictures’ Dracula (1931), with elements drawn from the book upon which both were based; Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1897).
Takes place in the short timespan between the end of Gyakuten Kenji 2 (the second Investigations game) and before an important plot-affecting event that would make this story canonically impossible (if you have played through Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney, you will know what I mean, but it isn’t part of this story and not knowing it won’t affect the experience).

Summary
Trucy is a well known stage magician, but what if her magic was more than just for show? What would happen if she suddenly realised she had a little more than just tricks up her sleeves? A story about if Trucy had actual magical powers.
Also it’s a shitpost.
And inspired by Fiddler on the Roof.
