    Summary

    Lifeguarding at Buddy Beach is pretty simple. Plus, the job comes with plenty of perks: free snacks, a whistle, and an exasperated on-site medic named Miles Edgeworth, to name a few. Phoenix thinks he has it pretty good.

    Maya throws her pen at his eyebrow with surprisingly good aim.

    “Ow!”

    “Will you stop drooling over the medical staff and at least pretend you’re doing your job?” she says. She shoves her clipboard and walkie-talkie into his stomach. “You’ve got people to watch.”

    Summary

    "If neither of us is going to get any sleep with you on the floor," Miles said, "you could at least have the decency to come up here instead of tossing and turning all night."
    "I -- what -- Edgeworth, are you serious?"
    "Deadly serious." He paused. "Poor choice of words."

    (or, miles and phoenix manage to pick up the pieces after 1-4 despite not knowing how to talk about their feelings even a little bit)

    Summary

    In the ranks of hopeless cases, determining whether Phoenix Wright or Miles Edgeworth deserved the top spot was a fiercely contested debate (one described by outsiders as “kind of cute” and “just like an old married couple” and, when polite terms failed them, “gross”). Both could agree, however, on third place: for the only case nearly as hopeless as their love for each other was Phoenix’s self-proclaimed quest to find the perfect pet name for Miles.

    Summary

    Miles Edgeworth was content to stay behind the circulation desk with his tea, maybe wander through the stacks and locate any books that had been mishelved if he was feeling particularly restless.

    What he didn't expect was for someone to burst through the doors, sopping wet blue suit practically fused to his skin, looking around frantically as if he was being chased.

    Summary

    Miles looks at him. “I’ve wanted to marry you since 2024.”

    Ear-burning, forthright truths revealed rarely, randomly, and in the tones of a comment on the weather: Miles’ specialty. Phoenix is about to melt from the inside out. It’ll create a horror scene (in the name of love) and result in a stain that Mr. Soriel will never be able to fully get out, but then, a curiosity eats through all of that, leaving nothing behind except the question: “Wait. What happened in 2024?”

    And Miles says, “I’m not telling you.”

    Phoenix and Miles take a trip to the tailors to get adjustments made ahead of their wedding. Something passes between them that, deep down, they already know, and a spontaneous decision gets made. Written for the Right Words nrmt zine.

    Summary

    As far as Miles can tell, Agent Lang's initial impression of certified hot mess Phoenix "That Man" Wright upon their first meeting wasn't exactly the most positive, and tragically enough, it's not like Miles can really blame him for having that perception.

    That said, they both probably should've known that Phoenix hadn't been named the Turnabout Terror for nothing.

    (Or: what it means to judge solely based on first appearances and then have all of your expectations rocked off-balance, especially when they revolve around one of the most outstanding attorneys the criminal justice system has ever known).

    “But you’re getting better, right? You’re less… uh… catty? Than before?”

    Edgeworth looks at him steadily without changing his expression but his tail flicks back and forth in displeasure.

    Summary

    Miles Edgeworth, the feared pirate captain, is on a suicide mission no one can distract him from, no matter how hard his sister and his friends try to dissuade him. Closed off and angry, he has unwillingly turned his whole crew against him by denying them to make port, too focused on his revenge to see the mutiny brewing right under his nose. Until Phoenix, a stowaway with earnest brown eyes and a dry sense of humor, disrupts his plans with a charming personality and his tendency for loud, erratic gestures.

    It's clear to everyone that their new deckhand is not as defenseless as he seems to be, but there are more pressing matters to attend to for the crew of the Steel, namely: the attempted murder of the Captain and his rivalry against the British Crown as a whole. Franziska, Kay and Sebastian will try to save their Captain from himself. Phoenix will help, in his own way.

    Summary

    “You ran away from me,” Miles says, breaking the awkward silence that was threatening to settle around them, “you kissed me and then you ran away.”

    Miles has always been good at hiding his emotions, but his expression is absolutely steely now in a way that Phoenix has never seen it. He has no idea what Miles might be thinking, which is probably the scariest part of all this.

    Phoenix swallows against the lump forming in his throat. “O-ob-objection?” he stutters out nervously.

    Summary

    Phoenix is minding his own business, wistfully and pathetically rereading his texts with Edgeworth when Pearls walks up to him, asks him, “Mr. Nick, who’s your sugar dah-dee?” and walks away before he can respond. Understandably, Phoenix’s brain takes about 3-5 business days to reset and fully process the statement; he wakes up in a cold sweat a week later.

    “Holy shit,” Phoenix says, “I have a sugar daddy.”

    “Miles wasn’t a foreigner to lucid dreaming, it was one of the ways he finally expelled his decades-long nightmare. He knew this dream, he had it maybe one a month, more or less. Feeling particularly lazy, Miles didn’t do much, only pulling Phoenix close to him. Phoenix made a little noise of confusion, and Miles huffed a laugh.”

    Summary

    Some legends are told; for that is, of course, how they become legends in the first place. Some legends prevail over the test of time, outlasting their subjects for years, centuries, even millennia. Some legends, however, are not so lucky. For one reason or another, these legends become mere stories scattered through time; rumors at best, and entirely forgotten at worst.

    This is the legend that was not told, until now. This is the true story of the man known today as the Evil Magistrate—but what history forgets is that he, too, was once a man like any other. He loved, and lost, and at the very end where it mattered most, he too fought for great justice.

    Or: Miles Edgeworth decides to write fanfiction.

    The judge hesitated, “Mr. Edgeworth, for such a request to be granted, I am afraid I must ask you to please share with the court what this emergency is.”

    Edgeworth stopped partway through stacking a pile of papers, “Ah, yes.” He said. “Of course, Your Honor.” He paused, “You- You see… The thing is… W-Well, I have been just been notified of… My- That is to say that… Phoenix Wright…” He faltered.

    The bailiff tittered for a moment, watching Edgeworth stumble, before blurting out, “Mr. Wright has been shot, Your Honor!

    Summary

    “You are a fool, Miles Edgeworth,” Franziska scoffs.

    Miles scowls. "So I suppose you cannot help me with this curse, then."

    “No one can. It is not a curse, of course.” The sentence is accented with a loud crack! of her whip, followed by a crashing sound. “You are in love. With that foolishly foolish fool, of all fools. It is sickening. Do not bother me with this matter again.” She hangs up.

    “Ngooh,” Miles says into the dial tone.

    Summary

    "Who am I supposed to go to Samurai World with? I don’t want to go alone like a loser!”

    Nick taps his chin. “You could try asking Edgeworth. He’s probably not a theme park guy, but he likes the Steel Samurai. There’s a pretty nice figure by the windowsill in his office.”

    Maya’s face screws up. “I can’t ask Edgeworth to go to a theme park! We’re not nearly close enough for that. It’d be so awkward.”

    “You’ve got a few months.” Nick takes a swig of his coffee. “You could try getting closer to him.”

    “You want me to befriend the world’s most unapproachable man."

    ***

    There's a Steel Samurai theme park opening and Maya's buddy of choice is unavailable for opening day. Phoenix might know a fellow super-fan she could convince to attend in his place.

    Summary

    “I’ve been doing some investigating,” Trucy declared.

    Miles nodded obediently. He had long since learned that investigating is a key part of a young girl’s childhood. “Of course,” he agreed, with all the gravity the situation clearly required.

    “I think I have a case,” she continued. Miles did not interrupt. She cleared her throat, stood up, and pointed straight at him. “Uncle Miles, everything in my investigation proves that you are in love with Daddy!”

    And so began the downfall of Miles Edgeworth.
