    Summary

    Dahlia Hawthorne ended three times. Once, sinking into the waters below a rickety bridge. A second time, with a noose around her neck. The final time, spiraling upwards into the unknown.
    She always found a way to come back, fight for her place in the world, until she couldn't.

     

    aka my dahlia character study, meant to analyze her motivations throughout her life.

    Summary

    “That’s good news.” Mia Fey chuckles but she doesn’t sound very amused. “I’d have hated to see a repetition of our first trial together.”

    Miles closes his eyes. Exhales. He, too, doesn’t want to experience another defendant dead by suicide at the hands of Dahlia Hawthorne.

    “We are in agreement, then.”

    She eyes him warily. Miles stands perfectly still. After a few seconds, she sighs.

    “Let’s move this conversation to my office.” She opens the door and enters the main office room, leaving Miles at the doorstep. He follows suit and - abruptly stops.

    Because there, on the office sofa, asleep, is Phoenix Wright.

    Summary

    “Something’s wrong with Charley, I think he’s dying.”

    “Dying?!” Horror and incredulousness pushed Miles’ first question—who the hell is Charley?—to the back of the queue. “Wright, are you insane? Call an ambulance, why would you call me?”

    “I don’t think he has the insurance for that.” Before Miles could criticize Wright’s flippant tone, Wright gestured to the potted plant in the corner of the room. “Edgeworth, meet Charley.”

    Summary

    “Shh, Shizun, it’s alright,” Luo Bingge says, voice lilting in a singsong manner. Shen Qingqiu can’t look away from his red, red eyes. He blinks, and they aren’t eyes at all, but feathers, perched on a mound of coiled, shifting vines that are dotted with white thorns dyed their own bright red from Shen Qingqiu’s blood.

    “Go to sleep, Shizun,” the black-and-red bird sings, coaxing.

    “Go to sleep,” Luo Bingge repeats, as he flickers back into being.

    or: Shen Qingqiu is attacked by a monster that drops him into a dream of a perfect world--with Luo Binghe featuring front and center.
