ace attorney is like here's how we can make good side characters

[kayfarafey]

when phoenix and edgeworth get married i know realistically they would keep their own surnames but i think it would be VERY funny if edgeworth changed his name to "miles edgeworth-wright" and phoenix changed his name to "phoenix wright-edgeworth" and everyone calls phoenix "mr edgeworth" and miles "mr wright"

not to be crazy at 10 am on a wednesday but dahlia's surname is hawthorne as a reference to nathaniel hawthorne's short story rappaccini's daughter, in which the character beatrice is immune to poison because she herself is poisonous. but the thing about beatrice is that the reason she's poisonous is because her father experimented on her from birth. she's a genuinely kind person who is horribly lonely because nothing can get close to her without dying--flowers wilt in her hands, her very breath is poisonous. the protagonist lusts after her and then is disgusted by the fact that being around her has made him poisonous as well. he objectifies her, he's cruel to her, he explicitly tells her she's a monster and that she deserves death. the narrative explicitly states that the only way she can ever be happy is by crossing through the gates of heaven.

the story is widely regarded as a metaphor for the garden of eden, but also... from birth, beatrice has been isolated. she has only ever been viewed as an object--a test subject, a monster, a figure to lust over. she's no more human than any of the plants in the garden, and she's just as feared. she doesn't get a choice to be loved like she so desperately wants. she doesn't get a choice to not be lonely. her father has already made that choice for her.

and that's... the character her name is a reference to. that's a character dahlia hawthorne is connected to. the girl who was fed poison all her life until, at last, she became poison.

i'm so fucked up about aa1 actually. this rookie lawyer comes from nowhere, crushes the demon prosecutor's record on his second ever trial and gets the ceo of bluecorp, who has blackmailed and by extension caused the deaths of dozens of significant public figures, arrested for murder; defends a celebrity from murder, revealing a five year old blackmailing plot that involved a member of the mafia, who was the producer of one of the most popular child tv shows; gets the aforementioned demon prosecutor acquitted of murder and additionally solves the fifteen year old unsolved murder of gregory edgeworth, both of which lead to the conviction and arrest of manfred von karma, a world-renowned prosecutor with a forty year win streak, for multiple counts of murder. and THEN. he reveals that a two year old conviction and execution of a spree killer was unlawful because the prosecution (unknowingly) presented evidence falsified by the Chief of Police and the Chief Prosecutor, as well as revealing the chief of police's killing of both a prosecutor and a detective. all of that within SIX MONTHS.

that's FUCKING INSANE. you go through the rest of the games and you kind of forget how insane the first one is. no wonder his disbarment was the beginning of the dark age of law. that motherfucker GOT THE CHIEF OF POLICE ARRESTED FOUR YEARS AGO.

[kayfarafey]

found family makes things a little confusing. like hi, my name is phoenix wright. this is my husband miles edgeworth, and our children trucy wright and kay faraday, and this is maya fey, kay's partner and also my sister. not a single one of us are related by blood in any way and your nuclear family is fucking seething with jealousy right now.

[kayfarafey]

not even god nor any of his angels can prevent me from thinking about dgs3 with a beanix-esque ryuunosuke

[kayfarafey]

if phoenix were a demon would he be called phoenix rite or phoenix blight. discuss

[kayfarafey]

@whats-a-reading wait extremely good explanation this makes a lot of sense i guess the aftershocks of the case (esp with peoples lives being "ruined") would be based more on public opinion than the actual legal ruling..... and it would make sense for edgeworth especially to still view yogi as a murderer even if the insanity plea was accurate

ok post cancelled we figured it out. ace attorney = redeemed

[kayfarafey]

wait one more thing. BRATWORTH TOPS.
