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.

Summary
Life is never meant to be predictable, or easy for that matter, Raymond Shields is quite aware of that, but fate has a fucking sick sense of humour anyway, because here he stands, barely nineteen years-old, still years away from passing the bar, having just lost his mentor and anchor in life, and seriously considering the idea of fatherhood in the midst of the chaos.
Or. AU where Raymond tries to adopt Miles following DL-6.

Summary
Perhaps unsurprisingly, it turns out to be impossible for a disgraced and single ex-attorney to get approved to adopt a child he only met two weeks ago. He's not sure why he thought that would work.
A couple might have a chance, though. Especially if half of the couple is a prosecutor with good standing and deep pockets. Isn't that what friendship is all about? Getting (platonically) legally married, moving in together, co-adopting an eight-year-old, and keeping it all a secret?

Summary
“I didn’t want to pressure him to explain, sir, but… I think it has something to do with the death of his father.”
Klaxons blared in Manfred von Karma’s mind, though externally he remained perfectly composed. He had asked the night nanny about the content of Edgeworth’s recurring nightmare in the hope that learning the boy’s fears would grant him a new weapon, but this was a potential security risk of the highest degree. What did Miles Edgeworth know?
(That night, he finds out exactly what Edgeworth knows… as well as what Edgeworth thinks he knows. Manfred gains a better new weapon than he could ever have anticipated, and over the years, he uses it to do plenty of damage.)

Sebastian liked puzzles, even if they were sometimes hard to solve. The problem with the puzzle of Klavier, though, was realizing that there was one in the first place.
Good thing Sebastian had always had an ear for music.

Summary
Wright grimaces. “Sorry to tell you this, but as of six hours ago, I’m officially a stay-at-home dad rather than a lawyer. I might be able to recommend you someone else if-”
“That’s why I’m here!” Apollo half-yells, and then feels the tips of his ears flush because he just shouted over Phoenix Wright. “I know we’ve never met before, Mr Wright, but I think you’re being framed, and I want to help you clear your name!”
~*~
In which Apollo is 15, Trucy is 8, and Phoenix is very confused as to where all these children keep coming from. (Also known as the 'Apollo goes to the Enigmar trial AU')

Summary
There's this one writer in Steel Samurai fandom who over-identifies with the Evil Magistrate and writes amazing fic about him. It's a shame he doesn't ship Steel Samurai/Evil Magistrate, though.
A love letter to fandom, told through author's notes, comments, AO3 stats, and discord enthusiasm.

Summary
The full reason for why he dodges certain questions is a little more complicated. Usually he’d be glad to talk about his past, especially when it comes to Miles, but there is a little complication when it comes to talking to his subordinates. See, there is a good chance that if he starts talking about Miles, the fact they might mention the first time he and Miles met in court. And if they do, they might make a comment about how it was the first time they saw each other since they were kids. And if he does not voice his response to that very, very carefully, then Athena and Apollo will immediately realize he’s lying.
Because in reality, that is not quite the truth.
*****
“So you’re a gentleman.” Phoenix says, and in a strange sort of word association that he’s not entirely sure makes sense even in his own brain, he follows that up with, “Does that mean you’re straight?”
“I do not believe being a gentleman requires heterosexuality,” the man states, which is such an unwieldy sentence that Phoenix almost wants to laugh, but his hindbrain has other concerns at the moment.
