Summary
“Hey,” Gregory said in a voice just above a whisper. Moving slowly so as not to startle Miles, he sat down on the bed, and Miles sat up to scoot closer to him. “Bad dream?”
Finally looking up, Miles nodded, his eyes shining with tears.
“Come here.” Gregory opened his arms, and Miles leaned against him, wrapping his arms tightly around Gregory’s waist and pressing his face into the fabric of Gregory’s nightshirt. Ignoring a twinge from his shoulder, Gregory reciprocated the hug, holding Miles close and rubbing his back as he continued to sob.
(Gregory comforts Miles after a nightmare, protecting him as best he can while helping him understand what happened in the elevator two weeks prior.)

Summary
“…Merry Christmas.” Miles barely heard the words before the deafening shot rang out and the muzzle flash filled his vision, and fractions of a second stretched into aeons for him as the unstable rickety dark vessel where he was trapped was no longer the boat but the elevator and he was no longer twenty-four but nine and it was the nightmare all over again but this time he knew with certainty that it would have a different ending— this time, remarked a part of Miles’ brain that he usually went to great lengths to suppress, it would end justly.
(The events of December 25th 2016, the second-worst day of Miles Edgeworth’s life, told from his perspective.)

Evidence is Everything: A Comprehensive Essay on Narumitsu by sophie_inthesky
Fandoms: 逆転裁判 | Gyakuten Saiban | Ace Attorney
05 Jul 2020
Tags
Summary
A five-section essay exploring the entirety of the Narumitsu journey, compiling the reasons to ship them and the base of evidence supporting the idea that they could be confirmed as a canon couple someday.
I've done my best to cover more or less all the evidence pointing towards Narumitsu, from what we see in the games to what the anime added, to hidden hints in the expanded universe, out-of-universe events that support the ship and some meta/analysis thrown in for fun. Enjoy!
Done for Narumitsu Week 2020.
