ACE ATTORNEY, BATTLE

[joshuaorrizonte]

Title: Choosing Death
Author: Josh
Fandom: Ace Attorney
Characters: Miles Edgeworth
Rating: PG
Warnings: Implied suicide



He starts to die at age 9. He didn't really survive the ordeal in the elevator, it was the beginning of the end.

Still, physical life continued, and it would continue through adolescence, trauma compounded by an icy father-figure and comforted by a sister, if only according to the heart.

The letters helped, too; he would never admit it.

When the world falls down, when von Karma is caught, the ghost of his father is laid to rest, his career is revealed to be a sham, though through no fault of his own:

Miles Edgeworth finally loses his battle to live.

Oh. Oh ouch. This one is such a punch to the gut. Excellent work. ♥

and thank you for using the warning. that is especially appreciated. ♥

Thank you. :)

I actually wasn't sure if the implication was strong enough to warrant the warning. I debated it for a number of moments; I don't know if you've played past the first game or if you mind spoilers, so I won't say WHY, but, eventually decided that there was no harm in being cautious.

Well, outside of small text since this is a minor mod note: Always, always err on the side of caution with these warnings. If you're not sure if a warning is needed, go ahead and warn anyway, just to be safe.

Oh, Edgeworth. :(
