Thoughts on Phoenix x Iris?

I like it for what it is in the story! It's obviously not my main, but I think it's a really interesting facet to Phoenix and his tendencies to go headfirst into who he will go to bat for, whether it's romantic/platonic/familial, etc. Namely, that he believes hard, and when he falls, he falls HARD! They're kind of like a bittersweet first relationship for me. For all intents and purposes, they were a sweet couple in love-- they were sappy dorks who gave each other gifts (the sweater, what Phoenix believed the necklace to be, and so on), They had adorable nicknames for each other, they were THAT sappy adorable couple that you see on campus that you gag at, but they're really harmless, so you just let them do their thing. I think the tragedy with them was that for a time, despite Iris pretending to be her sister, and the reason for dating Phoenix was to keep him from getting straight up murdered to get evidence for ANOTHER attempted murder off of him, it was real. They were a real couple that loved and cared for each other, and it wasn't all a big lie. I can see them trying again, or attempting to, after 3-5 just to get closure (especially for Iris getting another go with her real name), but I think Dahlia was just too big of a presence for both of them-- they couldn't quite get rid of her shadow. Every time Iris sees Phoenix, she just sees that blissfully unaware dork who called her Dollie, and every time Phoenix sees her, he can only see Dahlia. I like to think that they remain friendly, but definitely less close than before after that. One thing I love about Iris is that she's also a little unhinged, one of my favorite parts of 3-5 is where she admits that she would have done ANYTHING to protect Phoenix, implying that she would not be afraid to take Dahlia's life if it got to that point. I think it really hammers in the point that despite being the "good" twin, they really are sisters from the same cloth. Thank you for the ask, it was a very pleasant surprise!! :D

Mini Fanfic #1261: Love-Filled Memories As Told by Sister Iris (Ace Attorney)

2;45 p.m. at the Wright's Anything Agency Office: Other Side of the Room.............

Apollo: (Snickers at a Picture Him and Gumshoe Are Seeeing of his Boss Wearing a Pink Sweater on Iros' Phone) No way. Is that really Mr. Wright in that photo?

Gumshoe: (Chuckles Lightly) Shocking, ain't it? He looks like such a dork here.

Iris: (Playfully Smirks at the Two Boys) Hey now. I, for one, think it looks absolutely lovely on him. It makes more cuter and handsome than he already is currently~

Apollo: You picked that sweater out for him at that time, didn't you?

Iris: (Giggles Softly) I wish!~ But no, i only brought him the red scarf. The weather has gotten cold and windy in our time at the Ivy University together, all those years ago. So I knitted two scarfs for Feenie and I to wear, with Sister Bikini's help and guidance of course.

Gumshoe: (Smiles Brightly) That's another name I haven't heard in a good while. Hope she been doing well too.

Iris: She has. Still as cheery and headstrong as she always been. Ooh! Which reminds me....(Swipes to the Next Picture of Her Giving a Grinning Phoenix a Kiss on the Cheek as He is Seen Holding Up a Small Trophy in His Hands) This was taken after Feenie participated in the National Hotdog Eating Contest.

Apollo: (Genuinely Surprised by What He's Looking At) Was not expecting Mr. Wright of all people, to be a competitor eater.

Iris: He isn't. In fact, he lost his appetite seconds before the seconds could begin and ended up in 8th place. (Smiles Fondy and Blushes Over That Memory in Particular) After he was rushed to the hospital, he confessed that he did all of this just to prove to the constants that tried to flirt with me and everyone else in the world that he is worthy of my attention love~ ('Sighs Dreamingly') Isn't that truly romantic of him?~

Gumshoe: (Felt a Sweatdrop) I'd say it's more dumb and reckless if anything, pal. (Grabs his Chin) But not too surprising considering all the crazy stunts he survived from-

'WHIPASH'

Phoenix: (Yelps in Complete Pain in the Distance) YEOOOOWWWWCH!!

Franziska: (In the Distance) Cease your useless rebuttals at once, you foolish fool of a fool!!

Maya: (In the Distance) Give 'em to it straight, Franny!!~

Phoenix: (Wincing in Pure Pain In the Distance) Jesus Christ, Franny......

Edgeworth: (In The Distance) We are this close to the goal post, Wright. Do not drop your guard down for a second!

Phoenix: Kinda hard not to when your crazy demon of a little sister is- 'WHIPLASH' AH! 'WHIPLASH' ACK!! 'WHIPLASH' ARUGH!!

Franziska: (Continues to Whip Phoenix Again in the Distance) Your foolish words will NOT go without repercussions, Phoenix Wright! And I am NOT little sister! I'M THE BIG SISTERRRRRRRR!

Phoenix screams in agony by Franny's fierce whiplashes, causing our three lucky non-participants to the Great Debate, to sweat even more bullets.

Apollo: (Already Has a Deadpinned Look on his Face) And the crazy amount of high pain tolerance he seems to carry......Hm? (Notices Something on the Picture) Hey, Sister Iris?

Iria: Yes, Polly?

Apollo: (Looks Up at Iris in Silence)

Iris: (Giggles a Bit) I'm sorry~ It's too precious of a nickname that I couldn't help but to call you that for now on. I hope you don't mind~

Apollo: ('Sighs in Defeat') At this point, I say knock yourself out.....But seriously though, was your hair always red beforehand or....

Iris: (Begins to Frown) Not....necessarily. But since you've asked, I believe now it's the time for me to explain myself in true detail.

Gumshoe: (Gives Iris a Concern But Firm Frown on his Face) You think you'll be alright in doing so, pal?

Iris: (Smiles Softly in Reassirance as She Bows her Head to the Detective) I will be, Mr. Gumshoe, thank you. (Takes a Deep Breath Before Speaking and Turning Back to Apollo) Despite our history together, I....wasn't exactly the person Feenie thought I was at the time.

Apollo: Is that so?

Iris: (Simply Nodded) Yes. I went by another identity entirely. My twin sister, Dahila Hawthorne.

Apollo: Dahila...Haw- (Eyes Suddenly Starts to Widen Up at the Realization) Wait a minute, isn't that same Dahila that was responsible for two seperate murders on the Dusky Bridge, all those years ago?

Iris: (Turns Away and Lowers her Head Down a Bit) The very same I'm afraid......

Gumshoe: (Turns to Apollo) I'm guessing your boss already given you guys the rundown of those cases at one point, huh?

Apollo: Mostly the crucial details. He always seemed conflicted whenever he talks about it though.

Gumshoe: Considering all the trouble that conniving snake caused to him in the Fey Family over the years, I don't blame him one bit. (Notices Iris is Still in the Circle With Him and Apollo Before Quickly Corrects Himself in a Sheepish Manner) N-Not to say I think she was completely bed from very beginning or anything like that! I don't even know the girl!

Iris: (Place her Hand Up to Gumshoe in a Reassuring Fashion) It's okay, Mr. Gumshoe. I am well aware and accepted of how....terrible of a person she was. And yet.....

Gumshoe: You still feel bad for her in a way?

Iris: (Simply Nodded) Yes. I mean, how could I not? She's my twin sister whom I used to admire a lot growing up. (Starts Frowning a Bit Sadly) Even if she thought very lowly of me. She was dealt a bad hand in life the day we first parted ways, having to spend her whole life with a father who never truly loved the two of us to begin with and to be looked down upon by our own mother beforehand....I was certain those key details were more than enough to drive her to her breaking point. And yet......

Iris then starts to think back at the time her and Dahila reunited for the first time in years after their separation. About how she blindly agrees to help along with her scheme....and how she then decided to abandon it entirely for the man she truly loves, only for that to result in her sister going back to despise her once again.

That was the one incident in her life she wished she could put behind forever.....If only it wasn't too depressing for her to do down the road.

Iris: I didn't do much of anything to stop her, all because I was so afraid and worried of cutting ties with her again and having Weenie get involved in this madness at the same time. None of this would've happened If I had half the courage to do so as Mystic Mia had on taking her down during that trial years ago. Maybe then she would've start improving as a person and we could try and rebuild our relationship as sisters.......(Wipes Off a Single Tear From her Eyes Before Letting Out a Heavily Sigh) But it's far too late for that now. In the end, Dahila had long since paid the ultimate price for the tragedies she caused over the years, with her body and soul getting wist away into nothingness. And I had to pay mines for helping her along the way.

Apollo: Iris.......

Iris: (Smiles a Bit) But that's okay. I've been doing a lot of thinking and reflecting during my time in my cell. What happened in the past might have been painful to go through at time, that doesn't mean I have to let it take control of me forever. I will continue live and fight for the present and future of the life i have, while also improving myself as a person.

Gumshoe: (Smiles Brightly at Iris as Him and Apollo Are Notlw Moved by her Struggles and Redemption Over the Years) That's the spirit, Iros! Our pals and I are gonna keep rooting for ya all the way.

Apollo: (Happily Nodded in Agreement): We'll even provide help for you if you need it.

Iris: (Heart Begins to Melt in Genuine Happiness as She Bows her Head to Both Apollo and Gumshoe in Front of Her) I can't thank you both enough for your kindness and time. (Smes Sheepishly) I apologize if the story has gotten too depressing down the line......

Gumshoe: Nah, don't worry about it. It was your story to tell after all.

Apollo: Exactly. I can see why Mr. Wright thinks highly of you now. (Forms a Grin on his Face) You're a pretty strong lady, Sister Iris.

Iris: (Giggles a Bit While Turbing Away, Blushing) Oho my~ How sweet of you to say~ But I'm not nearly as strong as Feenie, is in comparison. Despite everything he had to go through in life, he still continues to fight for what he believes in. Even when he was at his absolute lowest, the fire in his eyes still remains as bright as ever. (Clasps her Hands Together While Smiling Dreamingly) Bright enough to make me fall for him all over again!~

Apollo: (Watches Sister Iris Giggling and Swaying her Hips From Side to Side Over Her Feenie Along With Gumshoe) So this is what becoming in puppy dog love could do to a woman.....

Gumshoe: (Snickers a Bit) She seems more like a shy kitty getting into happy trance by the second, if you ask me.

Iris: (Let's Out a Satisfied Sounding Sigh) I'm ready to face anything this new year has to offer going forward and (Smiles Softly at Apollo) And I have you kids to thank for inspiring me to find that courage, Polly.

Apollo: (Raises an Eyebrow in a Bit of Confusion) Us kids?

Iris: You, Athena, and Trucy. Feenie would always brag about you three every chance he gets during his visits to the center years ago. It's really cute~

Gumshoe: She's ain't wrong there. (Snickers a Bit) I've seen the dope talk more you guys on hours on end, than he does showing off his badge these days. You really changed his life for the better, pal.

Apolll: (Smiles Sheepishly While Rubbing the Back of his Head Back and Forth) It was nothing really. To be honest, I would've never gotten as far as I am now as a lawyer if it weren't for Mr. Wright and the others for taking me in and helping me improve myself as a lawyer over the years. I love those guys-

APOLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Apollo: (Gets Startled by the Sudden Outburst of his Name Before Letting Out an Annoyed Sigh) No matter how much of a pain they are most of the time.......

Gumshoe: Oh no.

Trucy: (Angrily Marches her Way to the Trio Along with Everyone Else in the Great Debate) What in the world of magic and wonders are you and Mr Gumshoe doing over in that corner!?

Gumshoe: (Smiles Bery Awkwardly at the Gang) H-Hey there, pals! Don't mind us, we were just standing around and-

Apollo: Tried not to be a part of this dumb debate as long as possible.

Gumshoe: (Sighs and Slouches his Upper Body Down in Defeat) Yeah. What he said.....

Edgeworth: (Raises an Eyebrow at the Ywo) I beg your pardon? There is nothing DUMB about this debate whatsoever!

Maya: (Pouts at the Duo) Yeah! It's a lot more historic and important than you guys think, Polly!

Phoenix: (Gives Apollo a Fatherly Glare) And unless you want me to double up your bathroom cleaning privileges starting tomorrow, I suggest you and Detective Gumshoe to quit stalling time and choose a side right this-

'Ahem'

Phoenix: Huh? (Turns to the Source Clear Throat Before Him and the Step-Ladder Girls Gasps at Who is Standing with Apollo and Gumshoe the Whole Time) I-Iris!? You were here this whole time?

Iris: (Smiles Brightly) Only for a few minutes or so. You all seem so busy with your debate so I brought the boys over here to talk for a while. (Bow her Head to Phoenix) I apologize for the trouble, Feenie.

Phoenix: ('Sigh') It's fine, hon, don't worry about it. (Should've at least said something though. You're as quiet as a mouse!)

Maya: (Smiles Brightly at her Cousin) Big Sis Iris!!~ (Rushes Over to Hug Iris Along with the Other Girls)

Athena: It's been so long, girl!~

Trucy: We missed you so much!~

Pearl: We truly hope you've been doing well~

Iris: (Giggles Softly) I am!~ I missed you all as well, Happy New Year!~ (Turns Over to Franziska) Oh and good evening to you as well, Franziska. I do hope you have been treating Mystic Maya well these days.

Franziska: (Politely Bows to Iris) Why, of course, Sister Iris. I have been treating her nothing short than the queen of my life~

Maya: (Giggles Softly While Blushing to her Franny's Compliment Towards Her)

Iris: Spendid. (Gives Franziska a Darkened Glare on her Face) I would hate to find out otherwise, Franziska.

Franziska: (Eyes Widened in Fear by Iros' Glare Before Quickly Bowing her Head to Her) I-I-I can guarantee you, Sister, that would never come to pass! I would be a foolish fool of a fool to break her heart!! H-Honest!

Klavier: (Watches Franziska Muttering and Bowing to Iris Along with the Others, Partily Dumbfounded) That was not something I expect to see happening on the New Year......

Ema: The Intimidating Franziska Vom Karma getting scared straight by a nun. That sounds even more ridiculous just saying that out loud.....

Wocky: (Scoffs While Crossing his Arms Together) Told ya she ain't scary.

Ema: (Turns to Wocky) You wanna go over and tell her that yourself?

Wocky: (Forms a Bit of a Cocky Looking Grin) Don't have to when I have the proof right here. Also, I don't wanna ruin a start of a good thing we're having here, so.....Best to keep my mouth shut for now, ya know?

Ema: (Turns Back to the Scene at Hand) Smart.

Edgeworth: (Politely Bows His Head to The Nun in Question) It is always a pleasure to see ypu again, Sister Iris. Though I must ask, how exactly were you able to arrive in the first place?

Iris: By taking a bus and taxi ride. I thought about surprising you all until Polly and Mr. Gumshoe opened the door for me.

Athena: Oh really? (Slowly Turns her Head to Apollo and Gumshoe With a Glare on her Face Along With Rest of the Ladies) I surely hope they didn't think about escaping along the way....

Ladies: Mmmhmmm.

Apollo: Will you ladies relax? The thought never crossed our minds.

Gumshoe: Yeah! At least not after we opened the doo-mmph!? (Immediately Gets his Mouth Covered by Apollo's Hand)

Apollo: See? Never crossed our minds.

Phoenix: (Gently Grab Hold pf Iris' Hands With a Soft Smile on his Face) Well, surprise or not, it's always great to have you around, Rizzy?

Iris: Rizzy?

Phoenix: (Smile Now Turns into a Sheepish One) It's just a nickname I thought of giving you as of late. Doesn't sound too bad, does it?

Iris: (Hugs Phoenix) Of course not. It's wonderful just like you are to me, Feenie~ (Gives Phoenix a Peck on the Lips)

The Ladies: AWWWWWWWWWWW!~

Phoenix: ('Sigh') Okay. I think it's time we put this debate on hold for now.

Apollo: (Raises an Eyebrow at his Boss) Oh, NOW you want to call if off?

Phoenix: Don't give me that lip, Apollo. Iris is here now! The last thing I want to.do is overwhelming her with our madness.

Iris: (Giggles Some More) Well, aren't you as thoughtful as ever~ (Playfully Raises an Eyebrow) But you do know I am a lot tougher than I look, yes?

Phoenix: (Chuckles Lightly) Are you kidding? You're one of the toughest women I know. I'm just making sure you don't lose any brain cells from us is all. How about spend the rest of the evening here watching some movies?

Everyone in the Room: (Nodding Their Heads in Agreement) Yeah/ I don't mind doing that./ Okay/Yes, that's much better than screaming at each other by the hour.

Iris: (Smiles Brightly) That would be a lovely idea, Feenie.

Phoenix: (Smiles as Well) Then it's settled. Operation Movie Night has officially started. (Turns to Miles and Gumshoe) Hey, Edgeworth, do you mind if you and Gumshoe go out to the covenant store and get some snacks for us?

Edgeworth: ('Sigh') Not at all, Wright. I never even got the chance to take my jacket off since I first got here. (Turns to Gumshoe) Let us make haste, Detective. (Walks Over to the Door)

Gumshoe: (Salutes to Edgeworth) I'm right behind ya, Mr. Edgeworth!! (Follows Edgeworth Behind) I wonder what they're selling this new year around.

Edgeworth: Hopefully that bag of tea. I happen to grow a fondness to it these days.

'Closes Door'

Maya: Ooh! (Turns to her Girlfriend) Franny, could you go with them and bring me back a bag of those smackoos Ema told me about?

Franziska: (Simply Nodded to Maya) Of course. (Walks Over tp the Door) I am starting to get famished myself.

'Closes Door'

Phoenix: (Turns to Ema Next) Ema, turn the TV on in the living room so we can pick out which movie we should watch first.

Ema: (Smiles Brightly) You got it, Mr. Wright. About time we eo something productive around here. (Walks Over to the Living Room)

Phoenix: (Turns to Apollo) And Apollo, for deliberately dodging the debate earlier- (Forms a Smirk on his Face) I hereby placing you on Cuddle Duty for the night.

Apollo: (Eyes Widened in Complete Disbelief) What!?

Athena: (Happily Raises her Fist Up in Rejoice While Letting Out a Cheerful Laugh) Ha-Haaa Yeah!~ The Cuddle Party idls on, ladies!~

The Feys and Trucy cheer in rejoice along with Athena as they pull their Polly into their ever so lovely group hug.

Ladies: Hiiii Polly!~

Apollo: (Has the Strongest Urge to Facepalm Himself to Oblivion) This is beyond ridiculous.....(Starts Hearing Collective Laughing as He Turns and Glares at Twp Quarters of His Friend Group) And what the hell are you three laughing at over there?

Klavier: Oho don't you mind us, Herr Forehead, we're only capturing this wholesome moment is all.

Wocky: (Forms a Teasing Smirk on his Face While Snickering) Yeah. I can see your promotion pitch right now: Apollo Justice, Ace Attorney by Day, Cuddler by Night. (Starts Bursting Out Laughing Along with Klavier)

Ema: (Walk Back to Klavier and Wocky Snickering) Apollo's on Cuddle Duty again?

Klavier: (Turns Back to Ema While Wiping a Single Tear From his Eyes) Ja. His refusal to pick whether side of the debate got that role.

Ema: (Forms a Teasing Smirk of her Own) Should've known~ (Calls Out For Apollo) No need to feel gloomy over there, Cuddle Boy! At least you don't have to clean toilets all night, am I right?

Apollo: (Fuming with Irritation Before Looking Over at the Ladies Hugging Him) Hey, could you get off of me for a second so I can flip my dumb friends off?

Maya: Nooope. We ain't letting go of you one bit, Polly.

Apollo: Oh come on. It's just one flip of the finger and that's it! I won't go anywhere after that.

Pearl: We know you wouldn't. Because we're not gonna let you out of our sights.

Trucy: You gotta learn how to ignore the teasings more, Polly. It'll do your health wonders. (Gives Apollo a Big Kiss on the Cheek)

Apollo: (Groans in Utter Annoyance and Defeat Before Turning Back to Iris) You see what I have to put up with everyday of my life, Sister Iris!?

Iris: (Giggles Softly) Now, Polly, there's no need to have yourself a fit. (Lays the Side of her Head onto Phoenix's Shoulder) It's always a blessing to spend time with the people you know and love.

Phoenix: Yeah, Apollo, be more thankful in your life!

Apollo: I NEVER SAID I WASN'T THA- ('Ugh') Forget it.

@aa-described @aceattorney-described

phoenix wright's bisexuality is actually not about the male-female attraction spectrum but about the "how innocent will the defendant turn out to be by the end of the trial" spectrum. the colors match perfectly. has this been said before it must have been

[g0ldenboi333]

Got sick again and doodled to my heart's content

[theredcuyo]

I imagine Mia seeing her student get every single piece of paper where Miles Edgeworth is, this guy with a terrible personality and dubious methods as she remembers, and then think to herself “I already knew you had bad taste, but i didn’t think it was this bad”

For the record, i do think she knew about Phoenix becoming a lawyer for the chance of seeing him again, but that doesn’t change the fact that she can’t understand this crush he has on the man

[dullahandyke]

going back to last night's aa3 thoughts, it's baffling to me that that game isnt more controversial in the fandom. aa fandom's rampant refusal to play the games aside, i feel like aa3 is in the upper echelon along with aa1 and aa4 in popular perception and like! that's weird! yeah it's been around for the better part of 2 decades so it's just indisputably In the popular conscience in a way that aa5 and aa6 aren't (not that aa5+6 dont fuck up their rep well enough for themselves) but like. the abrupt shift to romance is weirddd godot is a weirdddd prosecutor hell the fucking LOCALISATION is weirdddd!! fuckin 'amateur bimbo' 'my hemorrhoids are doing the harlem shake' game! why dont people spotlight how weird this game is!!! i like this game but it is weird!!

bridge to the turnabout (ace attorney: trials & tribulations, 2004)

[pyropsychiccollector]

Ace Attorney: IF (... Harem Edition)

Gonna make this one short and sweet. Apologies to those that don't like harems; this is just my creative decision as writer. No NTR in my house. (人◕ω◕)

As usual, I entertain 3-4 girls for the guy. That's become my average for harems. This first post is about Phoenix; I'll make a separate one for Apollo later. Those will be the only guys with harems, at least at this time. To be fair, I don't have ships for Edgeworth. He's just a cool character for me. XD

Iris

Though a lot changed in this AU, I've kept the Phoenix-Iris relationship intact. They still went through the canon motions of Iris posing as Dahlia, and though I haven't touched on their reunion yet... You can rest easy they do eventually. (人◕ω◕)

I won't get into the full details, but after meeting again Iris agrees to leave Hazakura Temple with Sister Bikini's blessing. Iris gets a job as a nurse, and over the next seven years she rekindles her relationship with Feenie. She only has to get over her guilt of deceiving him when they first met; in this AU she never became an accomplice during a Hazakura incident. Phoenix is pretty busy as a prosecutor, but it's not his whole life. Making room for Iris again is very doable~...

Their attraction to one another is pretty strong. Outside any physical attraction, Iris enjoys that Phoenix can still be a goofball but he's evened out a lot and become very mature; Phoenix is still quite smitten with her reserved and kind nature. He sympathizes with her family tragedies, and is more than happy to be there for her. Though she does connect with her cousin Mia as well, and gradually makes friends over the next seven years. Iris works at the Dye-Young Hospital, so Phoenix is on pretty familiar terms with Nurse Karen Jensen, who becomes one of Iris's best friends, and her grandmother Bonnie Young.

After seven years they decide to go for marriage. Iris wanted to wait that long to make sure their relationship was genuine, and not just something they returned to out of pure sentiment. Admittedly, she does have to put up with sharing Feenie... and that also takes getting used to... (人◕ω◕);;; She often butts heads with Franziska because of the whole whipping shtick. Iris can be surprisingly bold when it comes to caring for others... Not that Franziska stands for all the insubordination, but she knows Iris is a "favorite" of Phoenix Wright... so there's not much she can do. (人◕ω◕);;;

2. Franziska

Franziska got acquainted with Phoenix around the Dahlia trials. She wasn't that fond of him at first, he was a foolishly foolish fool of a college student. (人◕ω◕) ... But Phoenix got interested in her as a friend, especially when Franny "allowed" him to be declared innocent and threw the book at Dahlia. Sure, his idealistic mindset clashed with Franziska's perfectionism. But he threw himself into studying law to become a prosecutor that pursued the truth regardless of the accused's innocence or guilt.

... (人◕ω◕);;; Again, not something Franziska was thrilled about that he kept reaching out... But eventually she folded and helped him become a proper man of law (and not just a bluffing fool). Due to her father being the Chief Prosecutor, she couldn't be too close with him, but Phoenix did rub off on her over the years. To the point that she didn't fully agree with her father's idea of perfection even before he was fully exposed as a criminal.

After returning to Germany for a bit to collect herself (after her father was imprisoned), Franziska came back to find out what sort of prosecutor she wants to be. She and Phoenix were still somewhat distant for that year as Franziska clashed with Mia and the Edgeworth lawyers in court for several cases... And then they grew closer again through the Matt Engarde/De Killer trial as Phoenix took the reins on that one. Franziska already knew she wanted to be a different prosecutor from her father, but around this time she stopped caring about any win records.

She and Phoenix worked together on a few cases over the next year, Phoenix's rep growing. Eventually they ran into Shi-Long Lang, and all the drama that goes along with that. Franziska decided to work with Interpol as a prosecutor around that time, which meant that she would be away from Japan a lot... But with Phoenix, she always had a reason to come back home. (人◕ω◕) Because yeah, their friendship blossomed into love over the next seven years. They helped each other grow as people, and Phoenix helped smooth out any tension she had with Miles over his "betrayal" of becoming a defense attorney. You know Franziska by now, she's not the kind to be open with her feelings. Not in public. (人◕ω◕) She somewhat envies Iris for that, but you didn't hear that from me.

With Iris and Phoenix talking about marriage, Franziska hopped in on that. Taking a break from her globetrotting to secure her spot as a Mrs. Wright. ... Though she still goes by "Von Karma" while with Interpol. She won't let that name die, and she won't lose to Iris. (人◕ω◕)(人◕ω◕)(人◕ω◕)

3. Calisto

Calisto... This is perhaps the most interesting one. The gist is that she was caught and arrested for attempting to murder Byrne and Mack Rell, and got rehabilitated through working as a detective under Tyrell. Eventually she got assigned to Phoenix as a partner, and she usurped Franziska's role in molding him into a worthy prosecutor. Their dynamic has always been unique, if not distant on the surface.

Yet Phoenix became a friend of sorts that Calisto didn't wish to lose. Wouldn't let him get convicted of murder, and ensured criminal elements didn't lay a finger on him. The protectiveness went both ways, and despite her past Phoenix placed his trust in her. She also got some merriment out of messing with him. (人◕ω◕)

They've been working together for a decade by now. Their relationship has never been "romantic" in the traditional sense, but in some ways they do operate like a married couple. So when Franziska and Iris came into the scene, Calisto wasted no time in sinking her claws somewhat. Mostly to mess with them, but also Calisto had no plans to get in a relationship with anyone else. She had no interest in such things... Phoenix was probably the closest she'd ever get to such attachments. (人◕ω◕)

Calisto had no issue becoming a Mrs. Wright, even though Franziska and Iris balked at her shamelessness. She doesn't remember her real name, so "Calisto Wright" will do good enough. And really, Calisto strikes a middle ground between caring Iris and whip-happy Franziska. Outside of her giggling fits, she's a pretty serious woman that won't put up with foolishness while on the clock. She's not very intimate with Phoenix...at first... But married life has a way of changing that. (人◕ω◕)

Phoenix x Miles for that OTP/OT3 meme.

Ask meme: Send me a ship and I’ll tell you who I could make them into an OT3 with.

If a V is allowed for the purposed of this game, then Iris, with both her and Miles dating Phoenix. If not, then Gumshoe.

Thanks for the ask!

[Image description: A meme from an old Spider-Man cartoon of two identical Spider-Men pointing at each other. They are both saying “You need to be honest about your feelings and tell Phoenix Wright that you love him. I know you two can be happy together and all I want is for him to be happy. I already caused him so much grief, I know he could never truly love me but he obviously has feelings for you and I'm sure whatever you did in your past, you have already grown beyond it and he'll understand and forgive you… He's just so wonderful and he deserves happiness and I know you're a noble person at heart and so he'll accept y-“.
