Summary
Richard used to talk about these things: ‘fatal flaws’, he called them.
If that is the case, then this must be yours: an inability to act for yourself. You have only ever floated along, twisting yourself to the whims of others, never striking out, making a name for yourself in any kind of significant way. A leech, a parasitic, opportunistic insect that pathetically follows anybody it sees fit, latching on and drawing blood until none is left. Expensive schools in Europe, therapy from odd Swissmen and three years of mentorship from an illustrious classicist- and none of it taught you how to grow a backbone.

Summary
Love, love, love. It makes space for itself, even when he has none left to give. Crushing the delicate fibers of his heart and spilling out into his ribs, seeping through the cracks in his skin.
Where did it all go wrong?

Summary
He wonders if others can see it. Can they see the maggots feasting on his flesh, the peeling skin on his palms, his teeth yellowing in his mouth? Grief has no physical form. It can’t. Grief is the absence, the feeling that somebody who should be here isn't.
And whose fault is that?
It cannot be hers. It can never be hers.

Summary
“The first time that Miles has an earthquake induced panic attack in front of Phoenix Wright, he's in the detention center, and being accused of murder.
The next time that Miles has an earthquake induced panic attack is also in front of Phoenix Wright. He's convinced that the universe is out to get him.
And just the mere thought of being so willingly vulnerable with Phoenix is enough to make his knees weak, even in spite of recent events. It's different, to choose vulnerability, rather than to be cracked open. And it’s different when it’s Phoenix. For whatever reason, for maybe a million reasons that Miles can’t bear to admit to himself, everything is different when it’s Phoenix.”
~~~~~~
In which Miles gets the support he so desperately needs, and maybe a little more.

"Daddy...
"You have black psyche-locks." she gulped. "Five of them to be exact, all crossing over your heart."(Or, Phoenix didn't realize he repressed a lot of things)

Summary
Sometimes you could do everything right, but things still go wrong.
_____________It goes like this:
Yanqing is falling. The mara-struck surge, their blades biting, cutting every inch of his body they can reach. It's cold. He feels it building inside him. Snowballing, filling him, overwhelming all his senses until all he can see is icy blue and all he can feel is the gnawing cold. It surges, bursting outwards, ripping, tearing, consuming everything in its path. And it hurts, shredding him apart from the inside out until suddenly that turns into a cold numbness too.
