Ok so. Miles Edgeworth is trans. Gregory was definitely a trans affirming father so when Miles told him he was like “sure son. What name do you want to go by?”

And so all Manfred von Karma knew was that Gregory Edgeworth had a son. When he gains custody of Miles, he just. Does not realize that the kid he’s now in charge of is a trans boy. (Maybe Miles already had a name change. Idk. Somehow legal name wise, von Karma just. Does Not realize.)

So Miles grows up being raised as a boy and von Karma just. Doesn’t realize. Until puberty begins.

And he notices something, that Miles isn’t experiencing puberty the way he would have expected and he’s like hmmm. I am not sure what is happening.

And then like preteen Miles, incredibly nervous, comes to him and he’s like, “excuse me, Mr. von Karma, sir, but would I be able to start puberty blockers please?”

And von Karma’s just like “WHAT!”

He’s so caught off guard and so used to thinking of Miles as “Gregory Edgeworth’s pathetic son” that he just… kinda lets Miles medically transition bc he’s so caught off guard by the realization.

And for his entire life, Miles is like. Unable to wrap his head around von Karma being surprisingly trans accepting???

#especially because von karma was decidedly NOT accepting of the fact that miles is gay #for the rest of miles’ life he is forever confused about this. and he never realizes that von karma just. didn’t know he adopted a trans kid #in my headcanon franziska is also trans and basically i think that like. von karma was so shooketh by having one trans kid in the house #that he was like. I. I. I don’t know what to do #and also Franziska would TOTALLY weaponize the fact that miles had transitioned without comment #‘why does miles edgeworth get to but I don’t??’#also also. Manfred von karma probably has some toxic ideas about what it means to be a man. that were definitely taken to heart by miles #especially bc he wanted to prove himself as being ‘valid’ in the eyes of bin karma #I like to think that as he let go of the other ideas von karma taught him he also let go of this ideal and let himself embrace #less ‘traditionally manly’ things #this is the ‘not traditionally masculine transmasc’ in me coming through #I feel like that’s such a specific thing to work through when it comes to reconciling masculinity ESPECIALLY if you’re someone who’s #felt like they’ve had to fight to be accepted for it #wow. that got actually serious on my stupid lil post.#anyway miles as of chief prosecutor wear jewelry and makeup and maybe sometimes skirts #also fun like trans kid headcanon: Phoenix comes out during the year he miles and Larry were best friends and his mom went to Gregory #for advice about how to support your trans son :)#ace attorney #miles edgeworth #phoenix wright ace attorney #manfred von karma #trans miles edgeworth #miles edgeworth is trans dammit #and so is Phoenix Wright #Phoenix Wright #mention #gregory edgeworth #franziska von karma #tw transphobia #like.
