something that i love about narumitsu is that you can come up with any headcanon for them in terms of marriage and it will make sense. oh they got married the day they confessed by signing their papers during lunchbreak in a hurry? for sure, they are weird little freaks and wouldn't waste any time. oh they had a proper wedding that turned into a murder case? that is so them. they had a beautiful ceremony? yeah, marriage is a legal procedure and what else would they value more than that? oh they divorced like three times? yeah c'mon look at them it makes sense. they proposed to each other simultaneously? god i love these losers they totally would. they didn't get married at all because it's against the law in japan and that's why edgeworth always talks about never getting married? so true so tr

Okay, so while it’ll be extremely inaccurate to say that Phoenix never gets paid for his legal services (and believe me, I have Literally Checked)… he still probably doesn’t get paid enough. Not to mention the months-long 'dry periods' he always seems to have between cases.

I THINK I just figured out why Miles says "that man" instead of Phoenix-
You know how Gumshoe tells us about Miles talking non-stop about "Wright over and over"
Do You think he says "that man" instead now because he doesn't want Gumshoe telling him about it again and knowing the detective he just knows he wouldn't figure it out
Do you think that once Kay/Sebastian meet that man they realize it's him and tell Gummy who kinda had a guess but wasn't sure they just INMIDIATELY tell him about all the times Edgeworth talks about him?

A young Miles and Franziska at the mall 💖, featuring Miles’ little music player.
Maybe Manfred is still in one of the shops asking for their manager or something.

krisnix is great because you can interpret it in so many different ways and it still works.
was it just bitter hatefucking and mindgames? tasty
was phoenix fooled, even if only briefly, and genuinely had feelings for kristoph? the ANGST of him discovering kristoph's actions, the realisation that the man who caught him in freefall is the same one who pushed him off the edge
did kristoph get too swept up and accidentally fall for phoenix, leaving him in one-sided love with the man he ruined? im kicking and screaming and crying. even better if he refuses to acknowledge it like the freak he is
did they, against all odds, fall for each other, but were doomed before they began? kristoph could never admit it to himself, every flutter in his chest and every ridiculous sappy thought gets pushed down to swirl deep in his gut, because if he lets those feelings get to his heart they just might kill him. phoenix would be putting the pieces together and the day he first starts to suspect kristoph makes him feel sick, he wakes up next to kristoph's sleeping, vunerable face each morning and hates himself for suspecting the only man who believed in him.

headcanon: when phoenix visited miles to discuss a case, he noticed how secretly sentimental the prosecutor is. though he had trouble admitting and showing it, he loves the people in his life dearly, and his home shows it. all over the house, and even in his home office, are pictures of the people he holds close. while looking around, phoenix finds pictures of kay, sebastian, phoenix and trucy, apollo and athena, franziska, maya and pearl, gumshoe and maggey, and even one of klavier.
however, phoenix doesn’t see any pictures of his father, gregory edgeworth.
when he asks miles about it, the prosecutor goes silent before explaining that it was due to von karma. manfred hadn’t wanted any pictures of the man who ruined his perfect record, so miles wasn’t allowed to bring any pictures of his father. he tried to secretly bring one and keep it a secret, but manfred found out about it and burned it in front of the boy.
now, miles doesn’t have any pictures of his deceased father, and he comments with a bitter laugh that his memories of him get hazier and hazier every day.
phoenix, determined to be a hero and make miles happy, will not let this stand and gets to work.
it takes a few months, but he’s able to find and get into contact with people who know gregory edgeworth and collect photos from them. in the end, he has a few pictures of the defense attorney… and several of gregory and miles together. he figured he wouldn’t have any luck with those, assuming they would be destroyed or in some storage unit, but raymond shields turned out to be a godsend.
so, with the photos he collected, he visits miles under the false pretense of going over a case together. once he’s there, he gives the photos to miles, watching the prosecutor intently as he looks through the photos in shock.
he had expected the shock. he had half expected the tears. what he hadn’t expected was the hug and the barely audible murmur of “thank you, phoenix.”
he couldn’t completely undo all the damage von karma had done, but he would repair all he could and do what he did best: hold miles and let him know how loved he was.
and that’s just what he did.

can i rq edgeworth who has liiike a huge crush on fem reader :3 but reader is like super oblivious to it and she keeps accidentally doing things to fluster him 😭😭
Hellu anoon! I hope you're doing fine and that you take care of yourself! This is so cute, so I hope I wrote it well enough for you to like it ;v; Have a good day and remember the water! <3 -----------------------------------------
Miles Edgeworth x an oblivious crush:
Tumblr media
We all know that Miles becomes emotionally incapacitated when it comes to handling feelings different from discomfort, anger or simply his neutral state of mind;
So you can perfectly imagine how many times he stumbles over his words and blushes per se when he's with her;
To start a conversation he has to think about what to talk about, at least two possibilities of her responses, and how to continue it afterwards;
That's the exact motive why her behavior DOES NOT help him, at all;
He doesn't understand if she does it on purpose or if she's that unaware of his own behavior in her regard;
But, from many points of view, Miles doesn't dislike it completely, since it allows him to be somewhat more free without necessarily embarrassing himself, since she doesn't suspect anything;
He often buys her small gifts or takes her to eat after work, but even if he tries with all his strength (which he never can fully use), she always sees it as a "date" between friends;
She probably starts to doubt after Miles' continuous kind gestures, but it's also the last thing she wants to illude herself of, so that's the main reason why she believes anything Miles does for her is just form a friend to another;
So she just tries to reciprocate his affection;
When she finds some particular tea leaves, he's the first one that comes to her mind, so she buys them for him;
Whenever they're together, she likes to hold onto his arm or when they're in very crowded spaces, she holds his hand nonchalantly and just drags him;
She sends some photos of her days and always makes sure to wish him a good morning and a good night;
When she can, she comes to his office to keep him company if she knows that he has to work for many hours (and sometimes even falls asleep on his sofa);
U s e l e s s to say that Miles is even more confused and flustered with each of her actions;
Mostly when she proposes to help him choose the outfits of the day and, once together, she fixes every inch of his, from the shirt collar, that irregular fold on his jacket and her beloved hair;
Oh dear, she has to only skim his scalp to make his temperature rise suddenly, his hands trembling in his pockets when he feels his locks being gently pulled to be styled;
And, of course, the nonexistent distance between their faces (a thing that Miles tries to ignore by keeping his eyes closed);
And at this point, even a whole poster on which is written "I LOVE YOU" will leave her doubting.
"Miles look!" She tugged his sleeve and dragged him near the lakeside "There are little ducklings" She knelt immediately and tried to have a closer look at them "Maybe we should leave them alone; if the mother's around I don't know how she would take two strangers" He lowered himself and made sure she wouldn't fall into the water "I'm not doing anything, yet" She grinned and looked around to see if there was something to feed them "Don't- They probably aren't even developed yet to digest something that isn't water-like textured" He held her still when she tried to get up to take whatever she saw "But I wanted to hold one" She got up anyway and waved to the babies when they started to go away "We should adopt some ducks" She went behind him and hugged his neck, slightly putting her weight on his back "Some? I think one is more than enough, and I'm sorry to say but you'll be the one to keep it" He tried his total best to control the trembling of his voice and put his hands in the water to stop them too, from trembling and to at least try calming the hot wave that started from his face and went everywhere "But why! They're cute, maybe noisy and not exactly calm in the house, but they are soft" "Dogs are also soft, and are way more manageable than a duck" He stood up, attempting to get her to break away from him, but she remained hugged to his neck, on her toes "Just becaaause, you already had one and blah blah, we'll see who's truly right" She moved her arms from the neck to his chest, squeezing him to bother him and prove her point. The laugh that came from her mouth made Miles melt for a second, breathing to calm himself down and -HE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW HOW AND WHY- placing his trembling hands on hers, taking the courage to turn around and seeking to clarify whether something could actually exist, between those two.

lots of people say shit like "the gavinners is the aa worlds one direction" but personally im a big fan of headcanons that use the aa world alongside the real world. klaviers first male crush was harry styles, he didnt realise it was a crush until he was way older. He cried when 1d broke up. going to music awards is surreal because he gets to meet his childhood artists (and daryan always made fun of him for how excited he got). Kristoph listened to eminem as a teen. Ema has tumblr user music taste (since i personally nominate her as the aa character most likely to use tumblr). Trucy listens to viral tiktok hits and thats most of her music taste. Athena loves 2010s girlpop. Klavier is best friends with Olivia rodrigo. I could go on.

can't imagine morgan fey being bothered enough to handle mia's funeral but i can imagine a 17 YEAR OLD maya fey pushing herself to make sure her sister has a perfect funeral while trying to ignore all the trauma and grief of losing a sister and being accused of her murder with only one person truly being in your corner (who she barely knew well enough to fully trust but she had to force herself to trust). and also while still being a fucking child who has been forced by circumstance to grow up when she remains unprepared.

I'm in a head canon mood so ace attorney characters and their caffeinated beverages of choice
Phoenix: coffee if he's at work. Energy drinks of he's not.
Miles: tea, obviously, and he's obnoxious about it. I do think he will submit to coffee if he's really really tired though.
Maya: she'd say herbal tea. In reality it's a lot of soda.
Gumshoe: a coffee man of ever I saw one. He puts milk and sugar in though because he doesn't like the taste otherwise
Franziska: she had an insane order with a million specifications and she gets mad if it's wrong in any way at all
Pearl: fancy Starbucks coffee of the season. She has coffee mornings there with Maya and they try them out. That's the only time she's allowed caffeine because she gets hyper
Mia: coffee but she's not picky. Milk no sugar
Godot: do I even have to say?
Apollo: coffee but absolutely no preference beyond that
Trucy: teas, I think Miles taught her how to be snobby about it as well
Ema: that woman shot guns those cold espresso shots and redbull back to back daily
Klavier: frapaccinos. But if he's prepping for a gig it's herbal tea.
Kristoph: takes caffeine pills instead because hes paranoid about his drink being spiked because that's what he would do.

Did Phoenix, Maya and/or Edgeworth teach Pearl and Trucy to drive?
Hello friend! Edgeworth is still the only one who knows how to drive, although this happens with Trucy when she's 21 years old...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And then after failing to be persuaded by Phoenix to teach Trucy how to drive, Edgeworth at least chips in to help pay for Trucy's driving school.
Thanks for the question!

Okay I did this quiz before but I got a lot of good ‘Other’ write-in answers that I overlooked originally, so the whole thing felt a bit lacking to me so… Well, let me try to do this again?

okay do you guys think edgeworth would listen to fnaf music. because i think he would listen to fnaf music.
it probably wouldn't be intentional though. like he's shuffling a house music playlist and spotify reccommends him you can't hide or something and he's like "hmmm. this artist is particularly intruiging let me check out their discography" and then he goes down a rabbit hole and suddenly he has a playlist full of fnaf music and he doesn't even know what fnaf IS.
and one day he's hanging out with maya he puts on the playlist and she goes "oh! i didn't know you liked fnaf edgeworth!" and he says "what is this fnaf you speak of" and shes just like "😶😶‍🌫️. WHAT" and then she gives him a two hour presentation on fnaf lore and makes him play the games etc etc thank you for coming to my ted talk 👍

I wrote this tirade about the Gavinners' theme in my notes app months ago but I had no Ace Attorney fans to share it with but I have a tumblr blog now so I will unleash it upon all of you:
We only know 2 of the 5 Gavinner members. There have to be 5 since there are two guitarists, a bassist, a drummer, and a keyboard player as established by the instruments in Turnabout Serenade. But the only ones with canon appearances and names are the guitarists, Klavier Gavin and Daryan Crescend. Since we know less than half of the band, it sends my mind running who the others could be. It would have been so fun to see all the designs of the band, but we don’t! So I just have to imagine what they look like, possibly based off of Klavier and Daryan. Some people have made their own headcanons and fanart, and I like them but I feel like there’s an important matter they never touch on.
As far as Klavier goes, his design is straightforward. 
Tumblr media
(sorry his png is so damn big. I figured out how to edit in html to make the image smaller but every time I save the textpost draft it undoes my edit. no I will not open a photo editor to size him down)
When I show a picture of him to my friends who haven’t played Ace Attorney, they ask if he’s a rockstar. And he is! His design conveys the fact. He’s also a lawyer, so his style strikes somewhere between courtroom attire and rockstar. A lot of the Ace Attorney designs are fun and great at conveying character, and I’d say Klavier is a pretty solid design.
But then there’s Daryan, who is dressed like a shark. 
Tumblr media
Idk if anyone else agrees but I’m not a fan of Daryan’s design. I also don’t really like him as a character either tbh. If he wasn’t holding a guitar, would it even be clear that he’s a rockstar? All the Gavinners members are part of law enforcement, but you can’t really tell Daryan is a police officer either. His design kind of bewilders me. With Klavier, you can tell a lot just by looking at him. What comes to mind when you look at Daryan is “shark man”. I mean, shark man’s a sick design concept, but I don’t like looking at Daryan! I think it has a lot to do with his ugly ass hair. His hoodie’s fun, but I don't like his hair. It's an unfortunate shape. And I think the people agree: half the fanart I see of him, they change his hair.
Usually with bands, you expect them to share a common style. But in the rock band the Gavinners, one of the members is dressed like a rockstar, and one of them is dressed like a shark. Like, I guess you could argue that Daryan is kind of in line, and his fashion fits into the rocker style. But I don’t know, in my mind the fact he’s a shark guy makes him very inconsistent with Klavier to me. So that got me wondering, what percentage of the Gavinners is dressed as rockstars vs Gavinners dressed as marine animals? I thought through some of the possibilities and proposed the ones that are funniest to me
Ratio 1 - 4 Rockstars to 1 Marine-Themed Star
This would mean Daryan is the odd one out. The weirdo who is a little too into Sharkboy and Lava Girl. A band of 4 guys who wear similar rockstar styles and then there’s just Daryan in his shark hoodie. 
Ratio 2 - Split 2 to 3 Either Way
In this scenario, the band can’t agree on what their theme is. Half are dressed in chains and leather, the other half are out of a marine biology textbook
Ratio 3 - 1 to 1 to 1 to 1 to 1
The Gavinners has no theming in the costume department. Each member is dressed however they like. Aesthetic nightmare
Ratio 4 - 1 Rockstar to 4 Marine-Themed Stars
I imagine it like this:
A 16-year-old Klavier Gavin walks into the studio, which at that time is the Gavin family’s garage. The Gavinners have just come together recently, and are rehearsing for their first show. But when Klavier enters, he finds his band mates are dressed up as a shark, a wrasse, a clownfish, and a lobster.
Klavier is confused, because he thought that the Gavinners was going to be themed after Klavier Gavin. He expresses this thought to his band.
Daryan tells him that since Klavier decided to name the band after himself, it was only fair the rest of the band mates got to choose the theme. And they were all super into sea life, so they dressed up as their favorite marine animals.
Klavier is annoyed they didn’t talk through it with him and says that maybe their theme is getting a little muddled. But since they’re all so enthusiastic, he’ll try it out. And he wants to be a merman. 
All the other members side eye Klavier. A merman isn’t a real animal, they tell him. Maybe he could be a manatee, a seahorse, a sea angel, a parrot fish? All of those creatures are just as majestic and beautiful as mermen, and they actually exist. Despite Klavier’s protests, the rest of the band does not budge. They persuade him to be a parrotfish.
The day comes for their first show. They got Klavier a parrotfish costume, which he keeps making faces at as they set up.
Klavier tells the other Gavinners he doesn’t want to wear the fish head hat since it will cover up his fresh haircut, but they insist he should. As they get ready in the dressing room, Klavier excuses himself to the bathroom.
When they’re called to the stage, Klavier has not returned. They assume he might already be onstage, or will be there soon. As they all get there and Klavier does not, they start to feel concern. Klavier is their lead singer and guitarist. He’d been thinking of nothing but their show for days, so it’s strange he’s suddenly missing. They ask the manager to delay the curtain call for a few minutes. The manager denies them, saying they’re on a tight schedule and they don’t want to delay the performers coming after the Gavinners. The band considers going into the bathroom to check on Klavier, or if they could perform without him.
As the curtain begins to rise, Klavier finally walks out on stage and joins the rest of them. But he’s not in a parrotfish costume. He is in a matching black shirt and pants combo with silver chains. Not even close to being parrotfish themed. The bandmates are shocked, but know they can’t make a fuss about it when the show is starting. They give him glares while they play. But they know they must look so bad when they’re all dressed up as various fish and an arthropod while their lead singer isn’t. The performance is received well despite the tension, but there are some mild comments on how strange the costuming is. Once it’s over, the bandmates confront Klavier, but he absolutely refuses to dress as a parrotfish for any of their future shows. When they realize they can’t change his mind (and they still won’t change their minds about letting him be a merman), they agree to just go to shows that way. Four of them dressed up as ocean animals, while the lead singer is not.
Over time, the other bandmates eventually give up on the whole marine life shtick. If they’re not all coordinated, what’s the point? And from their dressing room in the AA4, it looks like the band’s styling is in line with Klavier’s. But as the other members shed their marine life costumes, one keeps his through it all: Daryan. As the band builds regard and a fan base, he remembers how Klavier ruined their theme. So many of their arguments over the music and the band image are started because Daryan is secretly wounded no one dresses up as a fish with him. Now this gets into theory territory because I believe this could be his true motivator in Turnabout Serenade—

Personal head canon: Lotta constantly confuses Phoenix and Edgeworth as husbands
“Hey Spikey where is ya husband I need him for a sec”
“My uh.. what”
“Ya husband, yknow I last saw him getting chased by that mean ol security guard”
“Ohh Nick she means Edgeworth you know, your husband”
“Oh Edgeworth! We’re not-“
“Ah, I just kinda assumed y’all been together for years. How long have y’all been dating?”

“Nick is trying to say is Edgeworth ‘isn’t gay’”
“He isn’t? He’s looks like a strawberry fruitcake”
“That’s what I said! Nick said it was ‘rude’ or whatever”
“COME ON MAYA WE’RE LEAVING (I’m praying Edgeworth didn’t hear that. He somehow shows up at the worse times.)”
“Wait, Spikey come back! I still Need-a find ya boyfriend!”
