phoenix, klavier and edgeworth on discovering their s/o has been murdered... feelings, whether they’re up for taking the case etc
this one may be a bit rough but i’m curious... and please feel free not to do it if it’s too much for you!!
interesting!! not too rough at all!
mentions of death/dying and blood!
phoenix is devastated. absolutely destroyed. he’s used to death at this point but nothing could have ever prepared him to lose you. he’s crushed. he dedicates himself to finding your killer and doesn’t sleep until he finds them. after that, he’s nothing like himself anymore. he’s colder, sadder, and sharper with everyone.
klavier is mad. no, more than mad. he’s enraged. the second he learns you’ve been murdered he bangs his fists against his office wall until they’re bleeding. he feels like his whole world has come crashing down. he wants to take your case, to bring you justice. but he knows that if he saw your killer he wouldn’t hold back. he asks edgeworth to take the case and keep him updated on what happens. once it’s over, he secludes himself even more now. he doesn’t open up to anyone about you.
edgeworth is quiet. he isn’t one to show his anger but he feels it bubbling in his chest. he takes your case. of course he does. and he’s relentless. he doesn’t hold back in court against your killer. you deserve vengeance, you didn’t deserve to die. as if he wasn’t cold enough, miles is even more secluded and harsh. it’s almost like he reverts to how he was when he was still operating like von karma. he works ungodly hours and rarely leaves the office.
