#turnabout goodbyes spoilers
Text
I’ve seen people be confused about Miles picking up the gun in the boat in 1-4 but like… the answer is simple, he was having a PTSD flashback, that’s why he did that.
Like… think about it. He’s just gone through a traumatic and confusing series of events precision-designed to remind him of his previous trauma. He’s trapped and it’s dark and then “Hammond” is saying things that make no sense and pointing a gun at him and I’m sure in that moment Miles was like “this is how I die”. Then there’s a gunshot, and being trapped in a dark unstable boat must have felt a lot like being trapped in a dark unstable elevator in that moment.
It’s the nightmare all over again, the nightmare that he’s probably having even more often than usual this time of year, but this time it will have a different ending. (And remember how just a few months ago, Miles reacted so strongly to the notion of Jack Hammer being killed the same way he killed someone years ago…)
Before Miles has even processed that he is still alive, there’s another gunshot, and yet it somehow misses too. I don’t blame him for not noticing “Hammond” jump into the water; his mind is solidly 15 years removed. And there he is, trapped in the dark on the swaying floor of this horrible place, and then lying there in front of him he sees a gun, and he is not surprised, only tired.
Miles knows his role in this story. For thousands of nights, he has fulfilled it without fail. Involuntarily, he reaches for the pistol.
…For all this and more in actual fic form, read my new fic! It grew out of this idea and ended up covering his POV on the whole 24 hours of the second-worst day of his life. There’s so much juicy angst in this bit of canon when you think about it

If I had a nickel for everytime the prosecutor of the final case was a murderer, I'd have 3 nickels.
Which isn't a lot of nickels, but it's concerning that it even happened once.
Especially as one of them was the fucking queen

You know you've written an effective & terrifying villain when he's scarier OUTSIDE the court than in.
In court, while Manfred does end up bending a lot of the rules, there are still rules when working behind the bench. The Judge still has enough power to refuse his demands/objections (even if he's too intimidated to try most of the time). He plays the game well and you've seen him do it twice, both of them requiring Maya or Larry to save Phoenix's ass and the latter getting a Guilty verdict before the Judge retracts his decision. But Manfred is still beholden to the rules of the game and not even he has total control over what said rules are.
Out of court? No such luck, buddy. No one's going to kick him out the room for being in contempt or anything so petty. He can get away with anything provided he isn't caught. You know what he's willing to stoop to when he's limited by the rules of the game and even techinically won at one point - just what is he willing to do when there are no such restrictions?
That initial terror is followed by an insulting deflation; he doesn't even remember your name. You, the lawyer who managed to put up a fight against him for two days and dodged a Guilty verdict, yet he doesn't even recognise you when you're both face-to-face. All that hard work? All those last-second narrow triumphs? Those were nothing to him. Edgeworth is going to be convicted for Hammond's death or DL-6, no matter how hard some mere defense attorney and his assistant fight against it. Why even acknowledge their existence when they're practically redundant? Manfred has 40 years of precident on his side and you just have a short string of lucky breaks. You're challenging a god with a pointy twig. Good luck with that!
It helps that he's an absolute unit; the mere physical presence is enough to assure you that you aren't winning any altercation with him if it ever comes to it. He just stands there at attention, facing directly towards you with his eyes locked into yours the whole time (though not calling attention to it as much as Gant's infamous stare). There's just no way around it; you have to look this undefeatable giant dead in the eye in the single worst place you could have bumped into him and give him every reason under the sun to stop you in your tracks.
All of that manages to make him pulling out a NON-LETHAL weapon meant for self-defense a dreadful turn. What's more, it plays into his cunning and foresight as well; there won't be a track of evidence that he attacked anyone in the evidence room so there's no point in trying to press him on it or - heaven forbid - try to get that evidence back. The letter especially he could easily destroy without a trace. The only reason he could even be taken down was Maya snatching the bullet from him without his notice - a clue that doesn't hold any relevance until she nudges Phoenix to make the then grand leap of logic towards accusing Manfred of the murder, which requires an unorthodox explaination of where the second bullet went and an even wilder way of proving its existence.
The encounter with Manfred in the police records room sticks out in my mind for how it sets a man who's terrifying when restrained into a place where anything - from being punched with bourgey knuckle-dusters to being surrounded by mafiosos - could happen to you. It's the most intimidating the living legend had ever been in that case. Other villains will later surpass him by threatening us from inside detention or even beyond the grave, but Manfred's simple yet effective method of shaking you to your core is too memorable to discount because later villains get more elaborate with their schemes.

Seems like it was all just a nightmare after all...
Description:
Miles Edgeworth is at the stand, looking up in disbelief at the shower of confetti that is raining down and celebrating his innocent verdict. A soft golden light bathes his features, and the ghost of a smile is tugging at his lips.
Approx. time 25-30 hrs

My favourite part about ace attorney is when you talk to your defendant and they end up confessing to some crimes bcs there's always this random ass guard hearing this entire convo. Edgeworth dramatically confesses his guilt over possibly killing his own father, Phoenix dramatically refuses to give up on him, and this random guy just hangs out in the background hearing all of it
Or, in this case, Lana practically admits that Gant has been forging evidence and blackmailing her for two years, and the dude is just there like 🧍♂️
Not to mention Matt Engarde
