ok wait NO i need to talk about this actual official Ace Attorney art some more
- obviously, the fact that Miles Edgeworth has a picture of Phoenix Wright wearing only a towel is pretty fucking great
- Miles Edgeworth owns a ruffly pink apron
- Charley the plant is there, suggesting that this is taking place in the Wright & Co. office. how did all four of these people wind up in Phoenix’s office together? did they plan this ahead of time or were they just all there like “so…..you know what we could do to pass the time…..”? how did that conversation go
- Phoenix’s office has spiderwebs in it
- they are so dedicated to building a life-sized chocolate sculpture of Phoenix Wright that they took the time to build a wire base for it
- in addition to Phoenix’s nudes, they also have another picture on the wall, handwritten notes, and a to-scale sketch of Phoenix that I would bet was drawn by Larry
- look how serious and studious Miles’ face is omfg
- Phoenix somehow missed all of this going on in his office. where has he been? what has he been doing? how long did it take for them to build his entire torso and head?
- how much chocolate did they have to buy for this? none of these people have money except for Edgeworth. how much money did Edgeworth spend on making a life-size chocolate sculpture of his crush
- and, finally, just to make this picture even weirder: that calendar seems to say that it’s from 2008. per the canon timeline, in 2008, Phoenix and Miles would have been 16 years old, Larry would have been 15, Maya would be 9 and Pearl would be a fucking fetus.
in conclusion, this is a truly fine piece of art and belongs in a goddamn museum
