I may be a sucker for People Being Nice To Godot Post-Trials And Tribulations but I still refuse to believe any of these people can successfully play Mario Kart

Of all things in the final case of the Original Trilogy, this is the one that made me cry.
I'm not arrogant enough to pretend to be able to decipher Misty Fey, she's a very enigmatic character whose motivations and actions are complicated. However, I can't remain unmoved by her choice of photograph to keep in her Master's charm.
She did not pick a family photo where everyone was smiling, she did not choose a picture where her children accomplished something traditional parents would be proud about.
She chose a spontaneous photo of her children being very worried that they would get in trouble for a common childhood antic. A picture that represents their sisterly bond and respective personalities more sincerely than any other planned photo
What's worse is that, seeing the broomsticks near each Fey kid, the conclusion is obvious: they broke the urn while playing together. They also both feel responsible, as seen by Mia trying to fix the mistake (classic older sibling behaviour, I get you, girl) and Maya crying over being in trouble.
How did it make Misty, whose relationship with Morgan turned sour to the point of homicide, feel to see her daughters get along so well?

the way both Maya and Dahlia were perfectly aware of the generational trauma in their family but they handled it in completely opposite ways…much to think about

just proves once again that maya is an underrated character, she could’ve potentially become a similar person to Dahlia if it wasn’t for her kindness and strength

Currently playing bridge to the turnabout and omg im having so much fun playing as edgeworth
Like
This man's inner monologue is so funny to hear. He just trails off randomly while speaking and finishes his thoughts inside his head. Seeing him wear his lil defense attorney pin and take his temporary role as a defense attorney so seriously for the sake of Phoenix is so endearing
In conclusion Miles is blorbo #1 taking up all my current brainspace

One thing I think the game and fandom gloss over a bit is the fact that Godot has a very understandable reason for his grudge against Phoenix. By and large, both canon and fandom focus on Godot's anger at Phoenix as a projection of his own guilt and grief at Mia's death (and fandom likes to willfully misconstrue this as sexism, a take I'm sick to death of.) But it is also pointed out that Phoenix was very much an accessory to Diego's poisoning.
I mean, not willingly, of course. Phoenix is another unwitting victim of Dahlia's manipulations, and he clearly has no idea he's being used to hide the necklace that would implicate her in a crime. He would never be found legally culpable of Diego's attempted murder. But I feel like it is completely natural and understandable for Godot to be angry about it, learning after the fact that his blatantly obvious "murder" was an unsolvable mystery for nearly a year because some dingus walked off with the evidence. How could anyone have fallen for Dahlia's act like that? How could he have been so stupid and gullible? And now that idiot has "inherited" Mia's legacy? Of course Godot's pissed off about it. I would ALSO be pissed off if someone I perceived as culpable in an awful, life-ruining crime against me were enjoying what I perceived as unearned success tangentially on the back of my suffering!
There are also, no doubt, plenty of desperate "what ifs" in his mind, what could have happened if the necklace didn't go missing. What if having a sample of the poison could have helped the doctors save him? What if there was a way to reverse it, or mitigate the damage to his body? What if he could have woken up sooner than he did? What if he could have been there and saved her?
Is Diego's poisoning in any way Phoenix's fault? Of course not. Would having the evidence in hand have saved Diego, or changed any of the horrible toll the poison took on his body? Who knows? Is any of this rational? No, but human feelings rarely are, and Diego falls into a particularly awful place mentally and emotionally when he awakens. With his life ruined, his body a wreck, and his love gone forever, he feels nothing but hatred for the oblivious idiot who fell for Dahlia Hawthorne's act. The man who let his guard down and let her manipulate him. The man arrogant enough to call himself a "defense lawyer" who wasn't there when Mia Fey was brutally murdered. And what if he could have saved her, if only he was?
Tumblr media
And also he's mad at Phoenix. But only incidentally for the more concrete fact that he unintentionally "helped" Dahlia poison Diego. I think this is partially why so many people accuse Godot of holding a grudge "for no reason." The narrative gives much greater weight to the self-hatred/projection aspect of Godot's anger, and that's a lot more nebulous and hard to nail down than a straightforward "I hate you because you did X."
Phoenix didn't really "do" anything. Neither Diego's poisoning nor Mia's death were in any way his fault. But crucially, that's one other thing glossed over too easily: it wasn't Diego's fault either. Though T&T leaves off with Diego once again heaping the blame on his own shoulders, I desperately hope that in the aftermath, Phoenix or Mia or a licensed therapist get to sit him down and help him realize this.
Diego doesn't need to forgive Phoenix. He needs to forgive himself.

I keep forgetting that he's a prosecutor. He hasn't even seen the half of it when it comes to the bullshit that the defense deals with. Poor guy has no idea what he's in for.

It is SO strange to me that it seems like the default punishment for anyone convicted of murder is the death sentence. At least it makes for a good joke

Full disclosure, I never got the Franmaya ship, aside from maybe thematic parallels between Maya and Franziska as different takes on the "inadequate successor" archetype, until
