   If he was feeling a little dazed, then surely he’d understand the racing of her own heart, right? It was too easy, remembering why she ended up falling for him. Playfully teasing his spiky hair, being charmed with every overly-cheesy line and compliment he showered upon her. Enchanted with how his eyes sparkled or how big his smile could get. It was like dating the embodiment of sunshine...

   ...It’s just a shame she was a cloud on that point in their lives. Doing all she could to keep that shred of happiness going, but... It had been built on lies, peppered with little truths. The hints of Iris’ true self behind the deception. Not that...they mattered much, in the end. Still helped Dahlia deceive him, nearly cost him his life, and the resulting trial never made her want to confront and apologize the person she loved most.

   Dahlia...did always say she was a coward, huh?

   “Of course,” the words fall out naturally, half stuck in her own fretful head while the other half... He gives her such an intense, yet soft gaze sometimes. It’s making her flush. “I can promise you that my sister wasn’t very good at crochet or sewing... Her writing was lovely, but place some needles in her hands and she couldn’t make a hat.” A pause, looking down at her lap.

   “...I always tried to leave hints of myself with you. She wasn’t much of a cook, but I’ve helped Bikini in the kitchen for years. Knitting is easy for me, so giving you that sweater... I don’t like lying. Yet, I didn’t...want to abandon my sister, either. Not when everyone else already had.

♥ : Name one thing about the way their emotions work that they despise.

Apollo can be really hot-headed. It takes a lot to get him angry, but once he becomes impassioned over something, he stops thinking straight. He can name a couple times where he’s said or done something in the heat of the moment that got him in trouble later!

☆ : Would they ever wish upon a falling star? If so, what would they wish?

It’s not his first thought to when he sees a falling star. His first reaction would be “I gotta tell Clay about this”, but in the event that Clay is there, it’s probably him that urges him to wish on it. In the case that he does, it would depend on when in his life he’s wishing on it. Wishes would vary from wishing to be a big-shot lawyer like Phoenix Wright, to just wishing for the general well being of his loved ones.

❤ : Describe a physical action that shows complete trust.

If Apollo sleeps around you, he trusts you completely. He can be really jumpy, and has a bad habit of assuming the worst out of people, so the idea of being asleep around someone he doesn’t trust is a total no-go.

 ☾ : On a sleepless night, what would they be found doing?

He tends to toss and turn a lot before finally falling asleep, so he would probably try that until he gives up! Once he resigns himself to getting no sleep, he’ll probably get up and get some work done, or watch some terrible late night television. He falls victim to the occasional 3 AM snack, too.

❣: Describe a way that will earn affection (whether platonic or romantic) from them.

FLUFFY / BLUSHY SENTENCE STARTERS

“Oh? You’d miss my company, would you?”

The two had been reviewing files together and...hmm. What else was new around here, really? Their work had taken up...too much time lately. The two rarely got the chance to see each other at all outside of court, despite how...disappointing Miles found that fact. 

He had already begun reorganizing his files in preparation to leave when...

“ Are you sure you don’t have any secret boredom-destruction weapons on the backburner you’re not telling me about? A case you’re putting off? A big, secret trip to the burger shop you’re setting up just for me? Something? I feel like the boredom’s about to swallow me whole, Nick...! You wouldn’t let that happen to your beloved assistant, would you? ”

No one knew how to use those puppy dog eyes filled with crocodile tears the way Maya Fey did.

Kiss??

“Oh er, alright. I-If you’d like, then...”

He presses a gentle kiss to Phoenix’s cheek, face bright red, pulling away fairly quickly. 

Tell Me About Your First...

“...!”

Really...?

SEND 🎤 TO OVERHEAR MY MUSE SINGING

“...!”

He’d been softly singing to himself whilst organizing files and...hadn’t realized someone else had joined him.

His immediate reaction was to stop, then to glance over his shoulder to see...

Wright? It had been Wright? Of all the people!

“ I’ve got to figure something out, but I don’t know where to start. “

     At this point, he feels like he’s read over the case files hundreds of times. He knows his client is innocent (even if it’s just due to a feeling in his gut), but as for proving that to a judge? He’s at a loss.
