    Summary

    A mere month before the royal tour- in which the crown princess of Khura'in will visit each of the seven realms before she ascends to the throne- Nahyuta Sahdmadhi, royal regent, has a problem. The princess, already troublesome at the best of times, has become obsessed with tales of the Jackdaw- a notorious outlaw who has taken the realms by storm, his exploits inspiring an entire cottage industry of trashy penny dreaduls.

    Still, so long as Nahyuta can keep the public from finding out that their future queen is a devoted fan of a violent vigilante- in fact, so long as he can avoid the topic of said vigilante altogether- everything should be perfectly fine.

    Avoidance of the Jackdaw, however, is about to become nigh impossible.

    Summary

    Gale and Elayne are trapped after a cave-in, waiting for the other members of their party to return and free them - unfortunately for the bard, they don't return in time to stop her from making a humiliating mistake.

    Although, in her defence, Elayne really did think she was dreaming.

    Summary

    Trucy is leaving on a post-graduation trip around the world, leaving Phoenix more alone than he’s been in a long time. Before she leaves, Trucy asks her Uncle Miles to keep her father company while she’s gone. And Edgeworth takes his job very seriously.
    Meanwhile, Ray Shields reminisces on Miles’ growth over the many years they’ve known each other.
    On the other side of the world, Apollo and Nahyuta will be working with some new, but very familiar prosecutors in Khura’in.

    Parts of this fic are very dialogue-heavy, and use Ace Attorney game style text boxes in place of dialogue. Because of this, AO3's word count is not accurate. FINAL word count: 422,600

    Summary

    Normally, Simon would have no issues working with someone else on a case. There’s just one tiny, specific problem with this assignment in particular.

    Simon Blackquill does not like Nahyuta Sahdmadhi.

    (At least, that's what he tries to tell himself.)

    Or: enemies-to-lovers, but they were never really enemies in the first place and I lean way too much into their narrative parallels.

    Summary

    Nahyuta's search for identity leads him to the last place he would ever want to encounter a coworker -- let alone his least favorite. But when he takes a chance and has a "kink counseling" session with that coworker, he's made an offer that will turn his worldview inside out.

    Can he have his physical needs met and also find himself along the way? And can he trust Simon Blackquill to be his guide?
