AA In This Style Is So Good! ಠ‿ಠ 👍

It’s time for a ‘this fic will live with me’ kind of

Narumitsu Fic Rec

I read this over two days ago and it is still haunting me.

This one is on FanFiction.net and is just amazing. In the aftermath of the Skye vs State trial, circumstances bring Phoenix and Miles closer. Phoenix comes to terms with his sexuality, and Miles comes to terms with his life. Beautifully written, sweet, wonderful banter and on point characterization, warm and tragic. This one really moved me. I wish I had the skills to illustrate some of the scenes. I will never listen to Aida the same way again

Happy 7 Year Gapiversary!

On April 19th, 2019, our beloved Phoenix Wright lost his badge and thus began my favourite fanfic era. To celebrate, I did a drawing:

Tada! My very first piece of fan art ever. 🫣😬

And oh yeah, I have obsessively put together a 4 part series of favourite fanfics set in the 7 year gap. You can find those here: https://www.tumblr.com/fatcathappycat/780651246265712640/7-year-gap-narumitsu-fic-recs-part-1

Narumitsu Hanahaki fic recs

What is more suited to Narumitsu than a good Hanahaki Disease fic? The term "Hanahaki disease" literally comes from the Japanese words "hana" (花, flower) and "haki" (吐く, to vomit).  Hanahaki au stories are often tragic, with the protagonist struggling to breath, their lungs becoming overgrown with flowers. It can be fatal, and can only be cured if the beloved reciprocates the feelings, or if an invasive surgery is performed that removes the flowers but also the memories and feelings associated with the beloved. Many Hanahaki victims refuse to give up their 'unnecessary feelings' and so the scene is set for some delicious angst and confessions, a perfect set up for our two sweet (and often idiotic), long suffering attorneys.

I should also mention that all the fics listed below are whumpy ‘lite.’ I would say all fit in the hurt/comfort category, but do read the tags.

As usual, these are in no particular order, because fics are to be enjoyed and celebrated, not ranked ;p

Enjoy!

1. Fall Where They May by flybykeylimepie

Rating: M Words: 9,014 Read time: 40 mins

A really creative and unique Hanaki story. I tend to come back to this one over and over when I'm feeling that need for something a bit whumpy but romantic. Recommended if you likes your beauty cut with a little pain. (Seriously my lungs kinda hurt at the end of this... but it's so good 🫁 🌸)

2. Hibernation by nonisland

Rating: T Words: 5,607 Read time: 25 mins

"The petals he spits out, wet and brilliant, curl at the ends. He wonders why they’re always blue. It is hardly as if he is in any danger of forgetting who this is for." A beautifully written ficlet from Miles' point of view.

3. and when the morning comes, i'll breathe again by quantum27

Rating: T Words: 1,747 Read time: 10 mins

Interesting and fast-paced take on a Hanahaki au. Covers major milestones of the trilogy plus a bonus Larry fic!

4. Cyclamen Persicum (Resignation) by Axolotl_Supremacy

Rating: T Words: 10,467 Read time: 45 mins

Cute , wholesome and satisfying (well, as cute and wholesome as bloody flowers and an angst filled Hanahaki tale can be), filled with affectionate little nods to the characters we love.

5. Blood red (golden yellow) by Ballad_Of_Firefly

Rating: T Words: 326 Read time: 5 mins

A bloody charming little ficlet about unnecessary feelings.

—ڿڰۣ✿ڿڰۣ—

6. Perseverance by Udaberri for narcissasdaffodil

Rating: G Words: 2,336 Read time: 10 mins

Beautifully written hanahaki disease one-shot. I really enjoyed some of the imagery and phrasing in this one. "As the years pass, he’ll gain a reputation for ruthlessness, but his breath will still smell of flowers..."

7. feelings are fatal by spacekidmidge

“I have been in love with you, dumbass!”

Haha! Brilliant.

8. love most definitely requited by TheEclecticLibrarian

Rating: T Words: 9,556 Read time: 40 mins

What a gorgeous title and what a gorgeous story… Seriously, I feel like this one should be on the 'Required Narumitsu Reading List.' (hmm, I think this might be a future post?)

Franziska, Kay, Maya and Trucy are featured strongly and there is dialogue between Franziska and Miles in the opening that just got me right in the feels. And finish it with a beautiful and funny confession scene? This fic deserves all the flowers.

Super sweet Hanahaki one-shot with one of my favourite versions of Edgeworth: worried and action-driven {;-)

10. not a flower on the wall by PennamePersona

Rating: T Words: 5,166 Read time: 20 mins

Excellent take on this genre: Hanahaki as a neurological condition, with a very kind of bitter-sweet ending. Refreshing and creative.

It was a good guess (it wasn’t)

Ooooo! Thank you! There are some ones here that the YouTube algorithm gods haven’t fed me yet!

For those who are interested, I have a Narumitsu playlist with a bunch of videos including animatics, compilations, edits, etc. from different authors, which I have been collecting for a long time. So you can check it out if you are interested.

Columbo believes in you.

Where does he keep finding them????
