Will probably add more. Also, not saying that people are wrong for viewing the characters like this, it’s just sometimes when they do this it really irks me because I interpret their relationships and characters differently.
Also feel free to add in the comments and stuff! But don’t be mean, please.
Wait okay. I was thinking about how my childhood friends, while they remember our childhood ofc, genuinely don’t remember me being a girl. They know I’m trans obvs and know I was "a girl" but it’s like their memory has replaced kid me with a boy me
Phoenix says "in the 23 years I’ve known Larry" etc in the first turnabout implying he’s known him for his whole life and it’s just never mentioned again and the class trial implies that’s when they became friends so it’s weird but whatever. It’s 2am I was literally falling asleep when I thought of this so this is probably nonsensical. My point is. What if Larry just doesn’t mention them before 9yo because that was before baby Phoenix told people he was a boy and his brain just fucking erased it
• The prosecutors office parties doesn't feature alcohol because a quarter of the staff is underage (consequences of an over abundance of prodigies)
• during the 7yg Trucy and Pheonix stayed a few times at the german Von Karma Mansion while helping Edgeworth with investigations (Trucy loves the pool)
• Maya is friends with several guards at the detention center from all the times she was framed
• Edgeworth recieved his inheritance from Manfred Von Karma. Apparently because he faked his death, MVK didn't bother removing him from his will. Though everyone knows he would have removed him if he knew he was alive but it was all legally binding.
• Franziska's and by extension the Von Karma family line natural hair colour is actually blue. Manfred had blue hair when he was younger. The carpet matches the drapes if you know what I mean.
• Pheonix and Maya were roomates during the trilogy, first out of financial obligation then considering each othe family.
• Pheonix taught Pearl how to tie her shoes.
• one of the reason Pheonix didn't take any cases between turnabout goodbyes and rise from the ashes is because Edgeworth paid him 20 times his regular rate. Pheonix didn't feel like taking cases and he didn't have to.
• Larry's picture book Franzy's Whippity-Whip Trip did wonders for Franziska's public image. She hates to admit it but it helped her secure a high ranking position in interpol.
We have moved past Maya and Franziska wingmanning narumitsu as a society. They would not fucking do that. We need to realise the truth which is that Larry and Gumshoe would try to wingman them and only succeed through failure
