Second (lower left) is a lineart drawing of Eustace attempting to solve a Rubik’s cube, with a bewildered expression on his face. Third (center) is a coloured drawing of Eustace in an alternative outfit, composed of a red jacket, blue vest, blue skirt over tights and black shoes with ankle straps. The original outfit is to the right for reference. Fourth (lower right) is a lineart drawing of Eustace with the thought bubble containing the ‘You’re Winner’ meme image. End Description]

Ace Attorney law school headcanons because I'm trying to wrap my head around how all these characters are lawyers so young

Applying to law school in the AA world requires specific prerequisites and you have to take the LSATs, but they don't specify the ages for that. As long as you have the classes and the score? They have to consider your application

Once you’re in law school you take all the classes and eventually take the bar exam at the end to be certified and then you can practice

If you're a normal person like Phoenix, you'd take these pre-reqs in college and take the LSAT shortly before or after graduation then go to law school (ending up a lawyer ~24 years old)

If you're a normal but insane person like Apollo, you'd take as many of these pre-reqs in high school as u can so you can graduate college early and expedite the process (ending up a lawyer at ~22 years old)

Since lawyers are like celebs, there's a lot of pull around Lawyerly Degrees and whatnot. Prep academies started realizing "hey we can teach those classes to rich lawyer-nepo-baby kids with absurd amounts of money. Let's do that" and a bunch of legal prep high schools started cropping up that allowed kids to enter law school without college bc technically a bachelor's isn't a requirement, only the classes and test

If you're rich and / or have connections (the gavins, the von karmas, debeste, etc) you usually end up in one of these schools and are practicing law by the time you'd normally be in college (lawyer at ~18 years old)

I need to see an office christmas party where all the prosecutors and defense attorneys are chatting about Themis and practicing law before they could even pay taxes and whatever and Apollo and Phoenix are standing off to the side like "YOUR EXPERIENCES ARE NOT UNIVERSAL"

How to be a successful Ace Attorney Prosecutor:

Step 1) Pass the Bar exam. This is presumably very easy, considering how young some of the lawyers and prosecutors are in the series. They hand those badges out like hotcakes. Presumably it's part of Themis Legal Academy's graduation package, so you might not even have to TAKE the bar exam! Step 2) Only take murder cases. This will probably happen to you regardless of whether you want it to or not, so I'm including it in the list so you feel like you have SOME control over your life. Step 3) Be an honest and morally good person who seeks for truth and justice above all else in court. This one isn't TECHNICALLY mandatory, but eventually you'll end up facing off against someone from the Wright Anything Agency and once they're involved you'd better get on the level fast, or you risk either humiliation or being arrested for murder. Better to get this one out of the way sooner rather than later. Step 4) Pay the Detectives. Please. Gumshoe desperately needs a raise. If you aren't going to pay your Detectives, you should at LEAST take a summer sabbatical in Europe. Germany would be best. Step 5) This is very important: Be a sadist. Just a bit. Be a troll. A gremlin. A deranged little maniac. You're going to be watching a lot of people suffer on the witness stand (and behind the Defense's bench), and if you don't enjoy watching that happen then you're in for a very miserable career. Might as well get SOME entertainment out of it. Trust me, if you aren't capable of making Phoenix Wright recoil in fear, you're doing your job wrong.

It is funny that at the Themis Legal Academy, where future lawyers study at the AA, the prosecutors' students wear red uniforms, while the lawyers wear blue uniforms. Judges' uniforms are black!

Trucy's First Trail (Alexia AU)

"(My name is Trucy Wright, and I am the youngest adopted daughter of the famous defense attorney, Phoenix Wright. Although, in truth, my biological parents are Thalassa Gramarye and Shadi Enigmar, but I think that's all in the past… literally. Anyway, as I was saying, even though I come from a family of magicians capable of performing unimaginable magic tricks, I chose to become a defense attorney like my adoptive father and sister. What else can I say? Oh, technically, I have two sisters. The older one is Pearl Fey, who is like another big sister to me, and the other is Alexia Wright, who was adopted nine years ago when she fully moved in with her biological father. I also have an aunt/adoptive mother, her name is Maya Fey, and she’s the master of the Kurain channeling technique.)"

"(I also have a senior colleague, aside from my sister. His name is Apollo Justice, someone who came to ‘Wright & Co. Law Offices’ thanks to Alexia’s recommendation. He arrived when he was still a law student at Themis Legal Academy and took all the experience he could here, being dad’s protégé and Alexia’s legal assistant, before becoming a full-fledged defense attorney.)"

"(But anyway, you might be wondering, why am I so nervous? Well, it’s my first case in court, and I’m the one handling the defense, of course. What’s the case about? Well, it’s not that simple…)"

"(A young, famous actress, Liliana Strato, has been accused of murdering the director of a play during rehearsals for her latest production. The director’s body, Julius Clair, was found in the theater’s prop room, with a ceremonial dagger embedded in his chest. But according to her, she would never do such a thing, which is why she asked me to defend her, even though I’m just a rookie.)"

"(Or, well, technically, the case was taken by Apollo. But it seems he thought it would be funny to leave it to me as my first case… I guess he didn’t appreciate me teasing him a bit when I was his legal assistant back when he first started taking cases on his own.)"

"(Why couldn’t I just pass this case to my father or my sister? Well, I could… if they weren’t both visiting Kurain to see Maya and Pearl. At least Apollo took pity on me and will stay by my side as co-counsel.)"

"(But even with all that, I can’t help but feel nervous. When I was a legal assistant, the attention would be on me for a moment, and then Apollo would take over, but now the eyes will be on me the entire time. And even if I wanted to, I can’t back out now. I’ve already made a promise to get a not-guilty verdict, and that’s exactly what I’m going to do!)"

"Come on, Truce. Show them this is where you belong."

"Y-Yes! (It’s time for the truth… Here comes Trucy!)"

Ace Attorney: IF (... Part 9)

… I'm going to be a little weird and begin jumping around the timeline now that we've reached the 2016-2019 era. As expected, JFA is tough for me to drum up inspiration for. And rather than rush it out haphazardly, I'll sit and stew on 2017. I'll also hold off on Trials and Tribulations because let's be real, I derailed much of that game with Diego and Mia as they currently are.

So rather than immediately dive into characters like the Berry Big Circus, or Mask DeMasque, or Tender Lender… Let's just… Put all those on hold for the moment. (人◕ω◕) I want to have fun with these posts, and I think I'm seeing one of my problems: I'm diving too much into the mysteries and crimes. I like dabbling in those, but these posts are supposed to be outlines anyway. So I'll endeavor for…brevity, and not get weighed down by details of cases. If they come up, they come up. If not, we can chat about them if you guys are ever curious. (人◕ω◕)

So let's look to the future instead. Add a bunch more new colorful characters to our merry brood. (人◕ω◕) Let's start with… 2019. April. (人◕ω◕)

Zak Gramarye. Charged with murdering his mentor, Magnifi. We all know he only works with people that he can acknowledge, and with Phoenix as a prosecutor that already changes quite a bit. He still dismisses Kristoph as his attorney, but that leaves the question of who he'd seek out for representation instead. … The answer is… Interesting. Initially he wants Edgeworth, but Miles isn't as quick to rise to the bait as Phoenix was. This leaves Uncle Ray to nominate Sebastian, who's freshly graduated from Themis Legal Academy at only 17.

Naturally, this goes about as well as you might think. Miles and Ray both have separate cases that day, so Sebastian makes a solo debut as an attorney against Klavier Gavin, who's also a fresh prosecutor (… And been given a hot tip of forged evidence at play). Sebastian receives the fake notebook page from Trucy, and assuming that she got it from Ray or Miles, thinks nothing of it. However, Sebastian does show the page to Zak to ask about its contents, and Zak takes pity on the boy. He knows that page is fake, so he tears it up into tiny pieces after reading it. Aghast at Zak's reaction, the greenhorn demands answers… and the magician explains Sebastian should be more on-guard against such traps. Sebastian isn't the attorney Zak wanted, but they all work with the cards they've been dealt. He won't babysit Sebastian, won't spoon-feed him answers, but he won't let the boy sabotage his own career when he's just starting. Even if Edgeworth's cold shoulder rankles somewhat, Zak won't take his frustrations out on the kid.

The trial proceeds without the forged evidence. It's slow and pretty back-and-forth with Sebastian and Klavier both making mistakes. Jake is the detective in charge, and he's pretty sure Klavier is going about this case all wrong. The police are all but certain this case was a suicide based off surveillance footage from the hallway and the hospital equipment (the EKG feed) confirming the time of death. However, Klavier is still running this as a murder trial and only the defense can steer him back on course. Valant still messed with the IV bag, so there's also that to contend with.

In the final recess, Zak decides to call off his grand escape after witnessing the sorry excuse of a trial. Sebastian being new is understandable, he didn't even get to investigate the crime scene. But Klavier has no excuse after a week of investing with the police, and it really tries Zak's patience. So the magician loans Sebastian the real diary page, sensing the trial will come down to that. And as suspected, it comes down to Klavier presenting the diary, to which Sebastian presents the page to prove Magnifi wrote more.

Klavier calls in Drew Misham as a special witness, but Drew denies that page was his work. Because it isn't. Analysis on the page further proves it's the real deal, and since Zak was granted the rights to the Gramarye magic, he has even less motive to kill his mentor. With Klavier's slip up it becomes clear that HE may be caught up in something nefarious. Despite the prosecutor insisting for an extensive investigation into Edgeworth Law Offices, he has no evidence or witnesses to substantiate him. Just a forger who confirms there was indeed a page created by him, but they have no idea where it went.

In the end, Klavier is dismissed as the prosecutor, and the P.I.C. fully intends to investigate him for this supposed "tip" he received. He fully cooperates and confesses he got the tip from Kristoph, but his brother frames him for the whole affair. Klavier winds up disbarred for the would-be forgery, and to drown out the humiliation and betrayal he feels, he throws everything into his music career now. … It's all he's got left. He knows trying to turn everything back on Kristoph won't work, not in their current court system. He just doesn't have the evidence. But he WILL keep an eye out for every opportunity… He doesn't want to give up law. Klavier just has no choice at this time.

Meanwhile, Phoenix takes over as the prosecutor and listens to the police's findings, putting the case to bed without much fuss. Zak is cleared of all charges, and Valant faces a short time in the detention center for tampering with the crime scene. Trucy doesn't take that betrayal well, but Zak is willing to keep working with his partner - they were both in Troupe Gramarye, so they were both victims of Magnifi's cruel whims after Thalassa vanished. Sebastian thanks Zak for working with him, and promises to grow to be a man, an attorney that Zak can respect. The magician is sure Sebastian will do just fine. There's the matter of Kristoph, but… Zak isn't too worried about the coward's machinations. If Kristoph wishes to throw his brother under the bus, that's on him. They both know Kristoph was the real Mastermind, and they'll be watching each other warily from now on.

Phoenix and Calisto look into Drew Studios with regards to accusations of forgeries. Vera's nail polish that she received from the client was examined, and atroquinine was discovered and confiscated. Though as an apology to the girl, Calisto ordered a replacement bottle to be mailed to Vera. … On Phoenix's account, of course. Ariodoney Nail Polish is expensive. (人◕ω◕) Atroquinine was also found on the Gramarye stamp, and replacing that commemorative stamp was harder to pull off… But Tyrell pulled some strings. For a while, they'd post an officer as a guard detail in case the client ever tried to make contact again…or in case another murder attempt was made on the Mishams.

Thus, Magnifi's death and the trial surrounding it came to a close. There remains some loose ends with Kristoph running loose, Klavier framed and disbarred, but Sebastian's fledgling career remains intact, and the Gramarye's continue practicing their magic. In a way, the "Dark Age of the Law" is still on track… People are still going to begin doubting the courts more than ever. It's just going to be very different going forward. (人◕ω◕)

Dear Anonymous,

Oh, of course! Mr. Wright said a few things about it when he came to speak at Themis Legal Academy. I could tell he was being sincere when he talked about it.

I...do have to wonder about the legal ramifications of it, though. Calling a witness from the great beyond is sort of an unprecedented procedure, after all...
