    Summary

    Phoenix harbours no illusions that getting his badge back is going to be an easy task, even if the hardest part of clearing his name is technically over. He's fully aware that his reinstatement is going to be a bit more complicated than just passing the bar and is going to be more of a case of:

    Step 1: Save money to retake bar exam
    Step 2: Study frantically to pass said bar exam
    Step 3: Pass bar exam
    Step 4: Hope and pray that he'll somehow be able to still pull in clients after his reputation got burned to the ground
    Step 5: Haircut
    Step 6: New suit
    Step 7: Finally, finally confess his passionate love for Edgeworth that has been eating him up inside for the past 25 years
    Step 8: ???? Lawyer???

    Thankfully he has a pretty solid support network of people willing to help him out. And if Edgeworth has anything to say about it, they'll probably be able to cut out a few of those steps along the way.

    Which is why Phoenix promises himself one thing. If he passes the bar again, he is absolutely going to kiss the Chief Prosecutor square on the lips. Whatever happens after that, they'll just have to wait and see.

    Summary

    The phone rings and Miles answers, voice sharp and forbidding, jarred from a rare restful sleep.

    “Do you have any idea what time it is, Wright?”

    “No,” a soft, contrite, feminine voice says over the line. A young voice.

    …and that is how Miles Edgeworth finds out about the disbarment.

    ~~

    Miles Edgeworth and Trucy Wright have a lot in common, actually.

    Summary

    “Me and Miles… we’re dating,” he says, all at once, rushing the words out. Like pulling off a band-aid.

    There’s a pause, as people look around at each other, and Phoenix gets a sinking feeling in his chest.

    “Uh… we’re really happy for you!” Larry grins, after a moment.

    “You already knew,” Miles says.

    Summary

    “Sometimes I think you might just be going along with me. Retaking the bar… How much was getting carried on by someone else’s will? I confess it weighs on me.”

    Phoenix raises his eyes slowly. “You think I wanted to play poker in a bar the rest of my life?”

    “I think you wanted what I wanted,” Edgeworth admits. “And that scares me sometimes.”
