    Summary

    Allison leans back, studies her. Touches her hands again.

    “You’re not real, are you?” Her voice drops, saturated with exasperation.

    “Nay,” Cio shakes her head. “Thy mind has conjured me.”

    “Of course,” Allison sighs. “One more torture my own brain throws at me.” She drops back onto her pillow. “Be gone, now.” Allison’s tired voice cracks.

    Cio lies down beside her, propping her head up on her arm. “I don’t think so,” she says, looking at Allison. Staring at the ceiling, Allison closes her eyes.


    Allison meets Cio in her dreams after her death.

    Just- godfuckingdamnit, Ema thinks, picking everything up and speedwalking towards the bus stop. How is she to face Franziska now, exactly?

    "Hey, thank you for the coat you left me there, when you took the fucking car, leaving me in the middle of nowhere. Asshole."

    "Hey, I'm sorry about your impromptu nocturnal meltdown after we accidentally woke up in each other's arms. Fuck- I wish I remembered how to be a better person than that."

    "Hey, I'm sorry you got stuck with me. I'm sorry about everything. Can we forget everything and get back to where we were didn't care how much of a miserable and lonely asshole each of us was?"

    It’s Miles Edgeworth who teaches Phoenix Wright to play the piano, and it’s a fact that will always strike the both of them as funny, in retrospect.

    Summary

    In a fit of impulsiveness, Klavier asks Apollo on a date. Unexpectedly, Apollo accepts, but under one condition: in the interests of avoiding further awkwardness, Klavier must resolve his remaining differences with Phoenix Wright.

    What follows is excruciating for everyone involved.

    Summary

    Miles sighed, curling his other hand around the curve of Phoenix’s bare shoulder, just above his collarbone. “Yes. And I like it, I like the idea of going house hunting with you. And furniture shopping. I want to pick out expensive plates for our kitchen and put them on our registry list.”

    Phoenix quirked an eyebrow. “With an air-fryer we don’t need?”

    Miles hummed, “And crystalline champagne glasses. Those are a must.”

    Phoenix and Miles go house hunting. Los Angeles, 2027.

    Summary

    Could Apollo feel his heart stuttering—that furious, rapid press against his ribcage? Because Apollo’s always been aloof at best—snorting at Klavier’s canned lines, rolling his eyes at Klavier’s gratuitous physical affection. Granted, he’s never leaned away from Klavier’s touch. But he’s never leaned in, either.

    So what’s this brush of their skin, that twinge of pride in Apollo’s eyes as he looked Klavier up and down? Is it anything? Maybe so, maybe no.

    Summary

    Because, look: in the open pantry, there is Klavier’s favorite tea, nestled beside Kristoph’s. And if you were to peek in the cupboards, there would be that chipped mug—Klavier’s favorite; injured in a scuffle with Vongole—that Klavier refused to let Kristoph throw away. And Kristoph wasn’t cruel enough to discard it anyway. And there, on the counter, is that dog-patterned utensil holder some former employee gave him, ugly as sin, yet Kristoph adored it—

    A hand lands on Klavier’s back. It’s warm and firm—keeping him still and upright. “We don’t have to do this today,” says Apollo, somewhere far away.

    Or: someone has to handle Kristoph's estate. Apollo helps.

    Phoenix has something special in store for tonight, and keeping her cards hidden is promising to be a bit more challenging than in a game of poker. She is pretty sure the strap tucked away in her boxers and concealed beneath her baggy sweatpants is going to be a welcome surprise.

    Summary

    “Trouble sleeping?”

    “Something like that,” Klavier agrees in that same hushed little voice. She swings her leg over Apollo’s, repositions so that she’s all but straddling Apollo—and Apollo goes easily with her, of course, moving onto her back. The movement is familiar—enough to dredge up the memory of when they talked about this. That Klavier sometimes wakes up needy, with that coil in her stomach; that Apollo might want to do something about it.

    Summary

    He doesn't feel bitter. He feels fragile, and he is grateful that Apollo has recognized this fragility and has been mindful of it without being demeaning. He thinks of Jane Austen: There is no charm equal to tenderness of heart, and he allows himself in that moment to see Apollo as a person of the present instead of a shadow from his past to outrun. He watches Apollo walk away, and after a beat, he follows.

    Summary

    An anonymous love letter finds its way into Apollo’s employee locker mere days after his long-awaited return from Khura’in. At first, he thinks it’s just a stupid prank. But when more start to arrive, each one more heartfelt than the last, he finds himself wondering if they’re for real. As always, he’s determined to find the culprit and arrive at the truth - which would be easier said than done if Prosecutor Gavin could stop teasing him about it.

    Summary

    Klavier wants something amazing for the Gavinners' next tour, something awesome and awe-inspiring, even if the rest of the band maybe doesn't get his vision. When auditions for a collaborative act uncover Apollo Justice, heir to Troupe Gramarye's spectacular magic and the son of a legendary rocker, Klavier isn't just convinced that this is the act he was waiting for—he's smitten. But Apollo doesn't like Daryan, or the Gavinners' music, or even Klavier, it seems.

    Which begs the question of why he even came to the audition in the first place.

    Summary

    Some days are better than others. Falin has always been good at moving forward.

    She buys new clothes. The old ones feel strange on her. They are too warm, and they are loose in a way that makes them feel more restrictive than comfortable.

    Falin leaves. She leaves, again and again.

    -

    Falin tries to figure out what life looks like after the end of a story she wasn't part of. Mostly a character study, with a little Falin/Marcille thrown in there for flavor.

    Summary

    Shortly after opening the app, a new message rolled in. Much to his disappointment, the profile had no name, no profile photo, and the bio read simply: ‘28. Top. Can host.’
    The fact that the user was within walking distance was a plus, though.
    Apollo considered this for a moment. This person had messaged first, so they probably knew what they were getting into when hooking up with a trans man. They weren’t terribly far away, were within his preferred age range, and could host. It was almost too good to believe, so with a sagely nod, he let himself open the message.
    > hey.
