Summary
"All you have done since returning is criticise me." In reality she doesn't mean for it to come out as harsh as it did.
"You weren't exactly happy to see me either."
//
Franziska and Miles finally reunite and attempt to have a conversation about everything that tempts them with remaining bitterly beneath the surface. Fate has other plans. Gumshoe ends up being rather helpful in picking them both up from the shock.

Summary
All the dead voices. All speaking at once. Like feathers. Like ashes. Like leaves. Nobody thinks to tell you it won’t be enough. Not clearly. Not in any way that matters until it’s too late and nothing you do will ever be enough.
Listen: Diego isn’t dead. He also isn’t dead yet.
Or, Diego Armando is poisoned in the courthouse basement cafeteria on August 27, 2013, and falls into a coma from which there's little hope he'll ever wake.
Somewhere along the line, he ends up being okay with that.
(In which immortality is an inevitability, the children have all been left to fend for themselves, and Diego submits to the mortifying ordeal of being known.)

Summary
They say she’s been a pirate since the very day she was born, brought up on her father’s thievery and lies. They say she is ruthless and cunning and cruel, that poison runs through her veins instead of blood. They say the sails of her ship turned black the night after her father hung from the gallows, stained with ash from the town she set aflame.
Those who speak of her rarely use her name, as if uttering it might call her like a siren’s wicked song. But her name need not be spoken for those to know of whom they refer to. The traitor to the throne, captain of the Silver Sword and daughter of one of the most infamous pirates to have ever sailed a ship, the dread pirate Franziska von Karma.
But this story does not begin with her.or, how the pirate captain Franziska von Karma and the spirit medium Maya Fey cross paths in a sapphic pirate romance about found family, magic and the sea

“Okay,” said Phoenix, rocking backwards in his chair so that the front two legs lifted off the ground, “here’s my question: if a genie gave you three wishes, what would you wish for?”
“Genies aren’t real,” Miles said. “Could you pass the burnt sienna?”

Summary
After clicking on a supposedly “cursed” online video game website that Trucy had accidentally sent him, Miles is thrust into another timeline thirteen years in the past with just one objective: earn 100 heart points from a younger Phoenix before the year ends, or his soul will fade from existence.
And so, with Miles stuck in the past, he must find a way to romance Phoenix Wright, the man who is already his husband in his own timeline…in only four months. However, with this Phoenix hating him, his reputation as the “demon prosecutor”, and the looming threats that want him dead, it seems that the universe is hellbent on keeping them apart.
Miles is in a race against time not only for Phoenix’s heart, but his own survival.
He only hopes he could pull this off.

Summary
Erica loved Jessica more deeply than she ever did her own mother. She felt no guilt over this; her previous life had been a different one, with so many things taken for granted. Her parents had been a constant, diffuse presence, as all-encompassing and dependable as the very air around her. She could freely stomp her feet in anger and still know the earth would keep supporting her.
Now she lived underground, and Jessica was the sun.

Summary
It was cold in the von Karma manor. It had always been cold, and Miles had grown accustomed to it. The north German winters were harsh, and Herr von Karma was of the opinion that complaining was for weaklings and cowards. Miles was neither a weakling or a coward, so he sat at his desk reading through an old astronomical textbook and pretended like his hands weren’t shaking.
On a cold winter's night in north Germany, Franziska von Karma decided she wanted her ears pierced. Who better to aid her than her little brother?

Summary
After losing his father, Miles Edgeworth’s life drastically changed all too quickly before he could process it. It was suddenly a new country, new home, new life in the von Karma household. Always striving for perfection to be the model disciple of Manfred von Karma. At times, it was suffocating, to keep up with his studies, all while the nightmares and his grief about his father’s death continue to plague him every day. But even on the darkest days, he could always rely on his sister Franziska, even when he felt like he was all alone with nothing but his own thoughts. However, eventually, as all things in life, their close sibling relationship started fading away, too. But perhaps, there is hope for Miles to become a worthy brother, once again, one whom his sister can rely on, just as he relied on her in their childhood…
Or: Miles and Franziska’s lives together as adopted siblings, helping each other through Manfred’s abusiveness, drifting apart as they get older, until they finally get reunited again and mend their bond.

Summary
Sometimes when you die, if you're lucky, you get to argue your case with Death themself. You don't remember this, of course, if you successfully convince Death that you aren't actually dead. But that doesn't matter, not when no one person has ever won an argument with Death twice.
No one person, that is, until Phoenix Wright.
