Summary
"It’s a normal situation, for a bereaved woman of a certain age, to.. to start making new friends, and if some of those friends are a couple, that’s even more friends to have. And if Sofia sometimes feels like a third wheel on their dinners out and their dinners in, she can always excuse herself to start the long, crowded journey home."
Esther and Ricky do their best to court Sofia, while she convinces herself this is a very normal intimate friendship and not polyamory.

Summary
"In Ayda’s hands the clippers seem less like a past mistake and more like a tool—something Fig can take up again now without falling back on self-destructive habits. Fig sometimes feels like everything that passes through Ayda’s hands becomes a kind of arcane focus, a repository for all of Ayda’s calm attentiveness, an effect that Fig has tried and failed several times to capture in song. A spellbook, the clippers, even Fig herself, all enchanted objects resonating with Ayda’s power. She grins to herself. Sometimes resonating three or four times a night, if she’s lucky.
'So, how about it? Gonna give me the rockstar look?'” -

Summary
"Endless Sky might not be the ideal spaceship for the journey Gorgug has in mind, but it’s coziness is going to be essential for Gorgug to keep himself together if he’s really going back to find his friends, his crèche, his… whatever Zelda and Ragh were to him. (If either of them are still alive, or sane, he doesn’t quite let himself think.) He’s not sure where to start except back at the beginning, at the same lab he broke out of five years previous. If it’s still standing, if anyone is there. He sings a little nonsense song to himself as he fumbles with the circuitry and effortlessly lifts fallen debris, preparing for his journey. His ship is a home and his home is a ship."
Gorgug escaped from the laboratory which made him into a cyborg super soldier dependent on the compound R.A.G.E. to keep his emotions stable. Now, he's going back in to find the people he left behind. He wasn't expecting to find two romantic partners and a whole bunch of experimental embryos, but hey, he's always thought he could be a good dad.

Summary
“Riz pulls back from a kiss looking thoughtful. He hesitates for a moment, and Ragh briefly worries he’s done something wrong, but Riz runs his fingers along Ragh’s jaw and says, ‘Hey, I have an idea - a plan. For when Fabian gets here?’ Since in Ragh’s experience Riz’s plans either involve awesome detective stakeouts or really creative sexual positions, Ragh agrees immediately.“

Summary
In the end there is really only one thing to say. Thank you, Miles writes, and a few days after he sends this last message he sees Phoenix Wright in the Arrivals area of Dublin Airport for the first time since that grey spring morning over two and a half years ago.
—
Six times they come together. One time Miles comes home.
Spans across canon (mostly taking place during the disbarment era) — from the end of Rise From The Ashes to before Dual Destinies. Somehow, somewhere along the way, Miles Edgeworth learns to stop looking back at shadows, and into what cast them in the first place. (COMPLETE)

Summary
Phoenix harbours no illusions that getting his badge back is going to be an easy task, even if the hardest part of clearing his name is technically over. He's fully aware that his reinstatement is going to be a bit more complicated than just passing the bar and is going to be more of a case of:
Step 1: Save money to retake bar exam
Step 2: Study frantically to pass said bar exam
Step 3: Pass bar exam
Step 4: Hope and pray that he'll somehow be able to still pull in clients after his reputation got burned to the ground
Step 5: Haircut
Step 6: New suit
Step 7: Finally, finally confess his passionate love for Edgeworth that has been eating him up inside for the past 25 years
Step 8: ???? Lawyer???Thankfully he has a pretty solid support network of people willing to help him out. And if Edgeworth has anything to say about it, they'll probably be able to cut out a few of those steps along the way.
Which is why Phoenix promises himself one thing. If he passes the bar again, he is absolutely going to kiss the Chief Prosecutor square on the lips. Whatever happens after that, they'll just have to wait and see.
