flowerhusbands… to me… is just, “I’ll wait for you forever”. And Scott does no matter where when or anything Scott’s always there waiting patiently for Jimmy. Empires rats limited life, it’s always going to be them meeting, and it’s always going to be them not working out.
Ranchers to me is “I’ll go to hell with you. I’ll go to heaven with you, I’ll go anywhere with you.” They’d go anywhere together holding hands and laughing. I doubt they’d notice where they’re going, I think they’re lost.
desert duo to me is “I’ll follow you to hell and back but I swear the next time you go to hell I’m leaving you there”. Grian will never leave him. They are tied together.

The way Jimmy should’ve died after Etho’s kill. The way Etho said as much in the chat and no one called it out. The way him saying it was a bogey was cut out of Grian’s video. The way Etho got his extra time but Jimmy didn’t get his taken. The way he was already dead but he was still fighting for his life. The way Grian cheated the system to keep Jimmy alive just a little bit longer.
The way Grian accepted Joel was gone before his final death. The way he was treating him like he was already dead. The way Grian resisted the Watchers the rules to give Jimmy an extra chance but it still wasn’t enough. The way that he didn’t have it in him to hope Joel would make it through the day. The way he was making plans, waiting for it to happen. The way he begged Joel to kill him when it came down to it. The way it still wasn’t enough.

I love the idea that the youngest Afton just fully and completely kicks it in 83’ so much. I cannot fully explain it. Like it makes more sense to me (he died before Charlie did and Charlie aided in the possession of the robots) (also he dies in the hospital, away from any and all of the animatronics) but I’m also in love with it thematically.
Like the motive Bill gives himself for continuing to take lives is so he can try and bring his kid back but that is, ultimately, impossible. Even if he were to fully understand remnant and how possession works that ship has SAILED. That toddler is in the great beyond, bucko. All the awful things you do are for nothing and all the reasons you give yourself for it are futile and self-serving.

Hello I see you are succumbing to the Ace Attorney Brainrot TM. If Harrow is Edgeworth, then presumably Gideon is Phoenix. Does that make the very bad teens or Palamedes her court-assigned weird little girl?
WELL, thank you for asking!!! You might just live to regret it.
The main connection is really Harrow 🤝 Edgeworth: I only think I killed my own father daddy issues, and that special kind of dorky tsundere approach to relationships. "Thanks to you, I am saddled with.... unnecessary feelings." vs. "[You were born so attractive] because everyone would have throttled you within the first five minutes
otherwise," ect.
Then, of course, there's the counterpart of Gideon 🤝 Phoenix: "All books are basically the same size, right?" vs. "I tried to read a law book, and it made my head hurt. Then I dropped it, and it made my foot hurt." A sarcastic internal monologue that rarely becomes external, a drive to help others boarding on the self-destructive. And, of course, so desperate for a certain someone's attention, they'd switch career paths and life's ambition rather than be ignored. If some spoilers I've seen for later AA games are to be believed, they also both get the depression and hole themselves up in response to the world's overwhelming shittiness. 😔
So! To finally answer your actual question, Gideon's court appointed weird girl could go two ways:
1) Jeannemary and Isaac assigned baby siblings at crime scene when Gideon's mentor, Abigail, is murdered.
2) Completely change the dynamic, and Camilla is the "assistant" who herds Gideon around, gives her hints in court, and is occasionally possessed by Gideon's kind and wise mentor, Palamedes. I think I like this one better because Abigail never actually met Gideon, and making her Mia is trading solely on her psychopomp cred. Palamedes and Gideon had a connection. She trusted him. And Camilla standing trial for Palamedes' murder is so juicy.
I think that's about as far as I can take it. Slotting the rest of the characters into the Phoenix Wright setting would mostly take writing entirely new mysteries.
Unless.....
Pyrrha should be high up in the police force, but she's no Gant. If John isn't Von Karma, he could be Gant as a different breed of genial monster with a taste for the grandiose. Ianthe has potential as Lana—extremely unhelpful, in over her head, and trying to protect her sister.
Ortus is Gumshoe. I am not accepting constructive criticism at this time. <3

Still not normal about the bad boys
I think Jimmy and Joel's deaths change my brain chemestry forever, like- they didn't expected to died like that but there was nothing they could have done to avoid their destiny.
How different but similar their deaths were. Jimmy went out with the lighting and everyone seeing him, the histerical laughs of his bad boys that couldn't believe it, the shock of everyone asking how and more histerical laughs because the first of them was gone, they were the first alliance to lose someone. And it was so anticlimatic because Jimmy had time, he had an entire hour to try to get some kills, to survive, they were taking it easy and didn't expect it.
And then you have Joel, the one chased by Scar and Scott, leaving with seven minutes and refusing to kill Grian even when he begged him "KILL ME JOEL. I HAVE THE TIME. KILL ME" to finally do it and killing Scar. He is in an hour and some minutes, he has the time to regroup with Grian and get some kills but he gets kill. And the clock is ticking fast and fast and he needs the kill and Grian is there to say him to kill him at least one talking about how there is gonna be two hours less for him and Joel just jumping back down because he doesn't want to kill his last friend. And Grian jumping behind him, trying to calm him and said he can make it, making the tnt minecarts. And there it was the lighting and nothing. No screams, no laughs, just the calm sound of the water before Grian gets hit with the reality that Joel is gone to and screaming just his name.
