#disbarment era

[basterbinkers]

can we talk about how phoenix unintentionally presents forged evidence (indirectly given to him by kristoph gavin) in the gramarye trial, thinking that this was the pivotal piece, this would finally complete the puzzle ...

and how edgeworth unintentionally presented forged evidence in the sl-9 incident as given to him (directly or indirectly) by lana skye that finally led to the verdict.

phoenix, always the one to find the forged evidence, to uncover the truth, to see past all the lies—disbarred for forging evidence. edgeworth, the demon prosecutor, protege of manfred von karma, constantly surrounded by rumors of fraud and forgery—never condemned.

do you think they ever talked about it.

[itlearns]

“I’m sorry. I’m sorry I’m making you… go through all that”, you lean towards Miles’ neck to make your apology more substantial.

 “Phoenix”, he calls you out. He’s not angry, not annoyed, not scared. Calm and soft.

“Please”, you hoarse. Kristoph trained your well. It’s almost a reflex. If you kneel and ask nicely maybe you get to be torn apart as a rewarding distraction.

“Phoenix”, he keeps pressing, and that’s clearly a “stop”. And a word from Miles is more than enough for you to obey. “Not now. Not like that”.

You hide your face in his shoulder with a quiet growl. You need something – anything – to make you forget. And alcohol doesn’t really do the trick for you anymore. It doesn’t leave anything in you except the desire to run away.

But he’s right, of course. And he knows a lot about for how long the right thing hurts until it starts resembling healing.

“Miles”, you say, with no continuation in your mind. It’s an affirmation on its own. There’s so much in it.

“Hm?”, he runs a hand though your hair and it just might be enough.

“…Thank you”.

You get to fall asleep in his embrace that night. Something you wanted to do for years, except you never thought you are going to be so broken and he would be the one to hold you so you wouldn’t fall to pieces.

Bearded teds from Twitter that never made it over to tumblr for u all

[milesdadworth]

ok but wait franziska said she looks forward to seeing Phoenix again 'in battle' and we haven't had another Phoenix v Franziska case

[inquisitivevet]

Uh-oh, Phoenix

[science-lings]

me, looking at a male character: for totally not sapphic reasons I'm going to turn you into a woman

[azuresquirrel]

Phoenix Wright really does have a tumblr girlie vibe to me, ya know?

[ryuuisnotpresent]

so I'm replaying the ace attorney series again, and I'm on justice for all rn, and can I just say how unreal it is that phoenix actually gets amnesia??? like I get it from a meta perspective that they want new players to be able to play the game without seemingly missing anything but holy shit is it really necessary

[littlestuffstohide]

Miles is infamous.

It looks like Gumshoe is his only friend.

Either he's upset about turnabout samurai case or just in angst. Or just what his therapist told him to do. ehehe.

On the funny side of things, I just realized how unbelievable this trio of friends are. Like Phoenix, Miles and Larry had been accused of murder at some point in their lives. That says a lot about them.

After showing him a picture of Misty Fey, we got him talking. He admits it that Phoenix is that good of a lawyer. Or determined.

Despite being not seeing each other so long, we all know they all thought dearly of each other.

I also realized another thing when Phoenix said "...pay you back." OMG. How did I not see it. These two are all about doing one another favors under the pretense of paying back for all the favors. Even wonder when these favors they do for each other ends.

And he doesn't know yet. ehehehe. Plus I don't have a ss of his thinking face yet.

Phoenix thinking if Miles is innocent and his chances of winning. He doesn't think Miles is guilty at all!

GhostBat's "distractions" giving me the same energy as Wrightworth's "unnecessary feelings"

A game of poker

"Do you wanna deal?” He shuffles the deck deftly. It’s mesmerizing in a way.

“I trust you”, you shake your head. Definitely not because you don’t want to look awkward with all the cards sliding out of your hands and falling everywhere.

“Huh. An interesting statement. I expect a fair game from you then.”

“The expectation is mutual”, you respond through your teeth.

Some family feels for the pokeattorney AU <3 I noticed I have the tendency of drawing them either sleeping or dozing off... I swear it's not intentional. I think Umbreon would fit very well for Phoenix during disbarment era (and ironically, Umbreon has a connection to poison), while the idea of Trucy + gigantamax Eevee is just too funny to pass up (Apollo will have nightmares) Espeon fits Miles' refined aesthetic. Also note how Espeon and shiny Umbreon both feature the lighter version of Miles and Phoenix's signature colors. They meet the whole Eevee family during a smuggling ring case, Trucy begs to keep them afterwards. Espeon and Umbreon both evolve at the same time, but they're in different timezones - it occurs during a case that involves incidents in two different countries, so they're working separately but something happens and their mons evolve to protect their trainers. On a side note I think Trucy + overalls is the cutest thing so I need to draw a fullbody version sometime.

your vocab is really rich, what's ur secret

oh! uhm... excellent question!

Read! And every time you stumble upon a word you've never noticed before or know but don't often use, put it in a list, write down its meanings, and try using it the next time you write! (I'll put my list after the cut)

Read different things! Different authors and different styles, especially poetry! I mean, if you're looking to fatten your vocab, reading poetry is one of the best ways to do it. Poetic writers must search far and wide for the perfect words to create rhymes and rhythms and audibly pleasing sentences---they practically do all the work for you! Honestly, I am so serious about this. One of the best things you can do is buy a fat compendium of poetry with all different authors and eras. Get you some Edgar Allen Poe, Sylvia Plath, Emily Dickinson, and Shakespeare if you want to hurt your head. Also! The same goes for music! Try listening to the lyrics---you'll probably hear some words you've never thought of using in your writing.

Here's a cheap trick for bilinguals---write something in your own language and put it through Google Translate. Honestly, I've found so many words just by doing this.

Every time you feel you've used a word too much, or anytime a word bores you to read, search up its synonyms and try using something you've never used before---don't stop the search until you're satisfied. Sometimes, it takes me more time to find just one word than it takes to write an entire post. Not only does this enrich your vocab, but you've probably just written a whole other sentence with newer meanings and more nuance!

Make your own synonym lists! Seriously! Because you can only find that many creative synonyms by searching up "word+synonyms."

Additionally! Think outside the box! Often, the best synonyms are those words that aren't actual synonyms at all. If you read poetry, you'll see poets use unorthodox words in place of something all the time---it's called a metaphor. Take flesh, for example---you can use fat, meat, muscle, brawn, beef---but you can also use cake, down, plume, pillow, softness, etc... I find this one especially useful for writing erotica, as you have to describe a lot of the same actions and body parts over and over and still make it interesting. (I'll add my synonyms list after the cut)

Also! This one is trickier, but instead of using words and synonyms, try making sentences that can replace the word instead---such as longer metaphors and fuller descriptions! This aligns with the literary device of "showing vs. telling." Of course, outright telling has its uses too and should not be disbarred entirely from writing, but often, it's showing that persuades the reader more. For example, instead of saying nervous, make sentences that describe how the character in question showcases nervousness---does their throat close up, do they sweat, do their eyes go wide, do they stutter, do they fiddle with their fingers, pick their nails, bite their lip, kick the ground, hunch their shoulders, look away, blush, flush, cry, run away or do they feel stuck? Describing these things helps the reader better understand the type of nervousness the character is experiencing. Hence, it makes for not only more interesting writing but also clearer writing!

A similar literary device is "focus and expanding," which slows down the reading or puts focus on certain aspects of the text by describing something to a great extent. If, say, this nervousness the example character is experiencing is of great significance, then that's what the readers' takeaway should be. But the reader won't think too much of it if the text simply states that they're nervous without underlining it. Luckily, there are plenty of ways of doing that, firstly through showing vs. telling, such as in the examples above, then metaphorically, such as "the ground seemed to swallow him up, down the guzzle of a monster with an appetite for disaster---darkness ensued like a storm cloud, cold and clawing with a weight heavy enough to nail him to the spot---all eyes were on him, unblinking and all-seeing, no matter what, he couldn't escape, he was stuck, glued to the ground by the soles of his shoes." I mean, the options are truly endless. These metaphors piled together are also a form of focusing and expanding, but you can take it even further than that by focusing on a small detail and giving it significance. For example, say the character is sweating because he's so nervous---you might focus on a single droplet of sweat instead of everything else, "A chill ran down his back. No, not a chill--sweat. Cold and creepily tracing the rigid bones of his spine. He can't move--if he moves, then they'll see. The sweat will seep into his shirt, and everyone will know what a sweaty and pathetic wreck he is. So, he can't move. No, yes, leave it alone. The droplet continues, running down the cold skin of his clammy back, sliding undeterred until meeting the band of his boxers and disappearing in the fibers. He swallows thickly and sighs with relief--only for another to pill at his nape, tracking the same course as the former. A vicious cycle is forming. He needs to get out of there!" And that's focus and expanding, folks! Focusing on something minuscule and expanding it by using it to describe what the character is feeling. It's a way to have a fresh take on something that's been written a thousand times before, such as "he was nervous."

Anyway, I might have gone a little above and beyond, but really, all these literary devices are ways of "expanding vocabulary" or at least giving an impression of it.

Angsty Psychic Lawers AU stuff?

like Separation Arc or Disbarment era

yeah so I decided Reigen’s disbarment was only gonna be 6 months since that’s the length of time that Mob was stuck in the mindscape world that Mogami made, and so it’s then the length of time that Mogami is Mob’s mentor (and also this allows the ages to not be all messed up LMAO haha)

[doydoune]

disbarment era... yeah

[science-lings]

Yeah I get that Edgeworth and Maya are besties who obsess over the steel samurai but that leaves Phoenix and Franziska time to hang out and you cannot tell me that they wouldn’t be a terrifying duo. They both get hurt in a way that would kill a lesser person and just end up at the courthouse like two days later to save the day running purely on spite and righteous fury. If their goals align they would be unstoppable and I am so serious. They meet up while their spouses are occupied with samurai con to go to the renaissance fair and immediately solve the murder at the renaissance fair.

I need disbarment era Phoenix weirdgirling all over Franziska’s interpol level crime scene. I think he should give her some weed to see if that would make the viewing experience of the steel samurai and other related franchises slightly more enjoyable. I think she needs some guy who can kick down doors to drag around when she doesn’t have Gumshoe access. She bullies him relentlessly and he’s just enjoying the nostalgia of it all.

They’re buddies and no one knows how it happened
