The Ace Attorney translation is so funny because if it were translated today it would probably just be normal but since it was the 2000s and American brains couldn't comprehend Japan there's randomly an insular village that strictly practices Shinto divination in Southern California

saw your post about the Steel Samurai parallels in fics and was wondering if you had any recommendations :^))
Well Anon, it looks like you’ve come to the right place because have I got the fics for you!
Now, a lot of fics that do this only do this in the sense of “This is a one-off piece of dialogue and a one-off thought about the Steel Samurai being a mirror to Ace Attorney that probably won’t be mentioned again” and only a couple make it a big plot point, so it’s pretty hard to find and remember what fics do this. The ones that I’ve picked for you are the ones that have the most obvious connection with the Steel Samurai and Ace Attorney, I’ll probably update this again if I find more but these are the ones that I can find at the moment.
Sorry if that made no sense, but here you go!
I have organized them into smut/non-smut, multi/one-shot and finished/on-going so you can pick and choose!
(Also, if you need anymore recommendations for Ace Attorney fanfictions, Anon, just ask because I have read MANY and this is only a small-batch)
-
“Written” by Limey
(Smut, Multi-Chapter, Finished)
Was one of the first fanfics I read of Ace Attorney and one of my all-time favorites because of how good it is! It’s about Phoenix accidentally finding Miles’ Steel Samurai fanfiction that’s all based on their dynamics with each other. It’s very popular, so I wouldn’t be surprised if you had read it or heard of it before. But, it does the exact thing I said in my post about having the Steel Samurai be a mirror of Ace Attorney world. Not to mention that it’s just good!
-
“To Dust Or To Gold” by HopeStoryteller
(Non-Smut, Multi-Chapter, Finished)
A fic I have bookmarked and am on chapter 2 of (Mostly because it doesn’t keep my interest long enough) This one is about Miles writing Steel Samurai fanfiction and using his dynamic with Phoenix as a helpful tool to characterize the Steel Samurai and the Evil Magistrate, but it’s written in a way that seems like Miles is actually writing it on A3O (When you click on the link, you’ll see what I mean) the story is told through the comments on the fanfiction he writes, at least from what I can tell. (Again, have not finished it) but it seems very good!

“A Beginner’s Guide On How No To Write Steel Samurai Fanfiction” by ChemoeleonWrites
(Non-Smut, Multi-Chaptered, Finished)
A fic about how a court stenographer uses the trials Miles and Phoenix have as inspiration for her Steel Samurai fanfiction and about how Miles reads said fanfiction. This one, personally, was not my cup of tea when I read it. But it is very good. Recommend it fullheartedly!
That’s about all I have for you right now Anon, I’m sorry I can’t help more but it’s very hard to find fics like this (I’ll have to write some myself if more don’t get written) The worst part is that I probably have more fics that do the whole mirror deal thingy but I have so many Ace Attorney bookmarks and I don’t wanna search through all of them at the moment. But I hope I helped anyway!
(You can find a lot though by just looking up “Steel Samurai” On A3O, those were very easy to find so I didn’t put them on here)
Also, here’s a small ficlet that I like, it’s just a one-shot, but I found it cute.
“It’s Three Am And Maya Is Connecting The Dots” by Dumb-Pen-Ren
