Mia Fey - Blog Posts
i’m sad for this queen’s death man may you rest milady
Its the way that I've been replaying the games recently and every now and then I feel compelled to rant to my friend about how STUPID Phoenix Wright is
Mia fey was too pretty and smart to die 😔
I’ve experienced this case like 4 times and did not realise that, oh that’s actually fucking insane????? WTF????
turnabout sisters is so insane in hindsight. you are miles edgeworth. mia fey, the first defense attorney you ever went against, has been murdered and you are prosecuting her little sister for the crime. not only are you intrinsically tied to her because of the circumstances surrounding your father’s death but you both watched a man kill himself your first time in court. you think this case could not be more emotionally charged. then you walk into court the day of the trial and who do you see on the defense? your fucking childhood best friend who you haven’t seen in 15 years.
redesign/headcanon ace attorney girls!!
i never said i’d lie in wait forever
if i died we’d be together
i can’t always just forget her
(but she could try)
Technically Dec 26th is still almost Christmas, here are some doodles to celebrate.
Phoenix, how’d you get into this situation?
ok ok ok so recently i've been playing through the ace attorney games (i haven't started three yet but i remember most of the plot bc of the anime) and for some reason i wanted to take a shot at what an "accurate" no DL-6 AU would look like! I just think it's interesting to see what might've actually happened if DL-6 never happened bc DL-6 is kinda the major butterfly effect in the AA world. Idk if i wanna make this an actual AU or just a ramble on how the series would be completely different without DL-6 lmao. We'll see! Maybe you guys decide :D anyway MAJOR AA TRILOGY SPOILERS AHEAD
I'll start with the characters. Gregory Edgeworth would still be alive, Miles would become a defense attorney & work with his father at his law firm. Phoenix would most likely pursue his artist career. Narumitsu/Wrightworth tbh would still happen bc they need to be canon PLEASE CAPCOM. Just that there would be no rivalry.
Anyway the Dahlia case would've been so different but also kinda the same without DL-6. It was because of DL-6 that Misty Fey left Kurain Village and Mia also left to become a defense attorney. Without Mia, it would've most likely only been Diego Armando taking on the first Dahlia case with Terry Fawles. Fawles would probably still commit suicide, and I believe Diego still would've investigated Dahlia further & gotten poisoned by her, but without Mia becoming a defense attorney & being killed by Redd White in 1-2, Diego would've never had a reason to become Godot so he probably would've stayed as a defense attorney. Furthermore, without Mia it most likely would've been Miles taking Phoenix as a client in 3-1 bc childhood friends never losing touch bc no DL-6 (you get the point lmfao).
Like, I think about maybe half the cases in the original trilogy would've NEVER happened if DL-6 never happened bc we would've never met Mia or Maya or Pearl, Yanni Yogi wouldn't need to take out his revenge, Von Karma wouldn't have been arrested, Franziska would've never wanted revenge so she most likely would've never come to Japanifornia, I think the only person that would never change is fucking LARRY and that's honestly the craziest part LMAO.
agh i'm getting kinda tired bc it's late so i'll probably finish this ramble tomorrow. there's so much I wanna talk about but my mind is going at like 1000 mph so I need to get my thoughts together lmfao
TLDR: DL-6 is the butterfly effect for the entire ace attorney world & many of the characters we know and love wouldn't even exist/be introduced if it weren't for it.
EDIT: removed the censor for suicide bc apparently tumblr is weird and idk how it works (please be nice ab me making mistakes next time I didn’t appreciate you guys basically yelling at me)

"Mia kind of sucked actually" yeah geez she only grew up in a resentful death cult, got parentified at age 12, fled the only home she's ever known to avoid being pitted against that same sibling she had to raise, graduated law school alone, overcame trauma and depression to start a successful law firm alone in her mid-20's, and spent whatever free time she had researching emotionally painful cold cases and planning to take down a corrupt CEO. even if therapists existed in the trilogy (real therapy, not Athena's bs), when would Mia have had the time? she covered an incredible amount of ground just breaking free of Kurain and adapting to the world outside the village - again, without anyone she could entirely trust to catch her if she fell. but still, she changed and grew as a person in just the 3-year span we knew her. she got much better at managing her anxious and aggressive tendencies. she was more openly supportive toward Phoenix than any adult was to her. and she was literally TRYING to open up more to Phoenix and Maya on the night she died, by introducing those two halves of her life to each other despite the risks! if Mia Fey "sucked", then how high a standard should women be held to, hmm?
gonna be playing turnabout beginnings soon <33
AU idea: when a Fey woman dies of unnatural causes, she can return to life by sacrificing her spiritual power. She wakes up healthy and whole, but normal.
Possibilities include:
Mia or Misty thought they were okay with turning away from their spirit medium heritage, until they wake up unmurdered and realize that they actually can't go back now. (They could even discuss the matter after they both survive!)
Maya could survive the 2-4 Bad Ending, or survive 3-5 in a painfully ironic way
Dahlia and Iris don't have spiritual power because they used it to survive a childhood illness or something
Morgan is sentenced to execution but it just ... doesn't stick. Law enforcement is baffled. She claims she can do it again (she cannot, she's just trolling as many men as possible before she dies)
Tender Moments <3
Bonus:
//i rly want an Ace Attorney, Mia Fey game so i did a shitty dialogue exercise of Mia meeting her FANTASTIC ASSISTANT

Mia went to college and Immediately started struggling. Because while the Fey's had educated her a great deal they were happy to neglect anything that didn't fit there bubble of a world. She asked what world war two was and got Screamed at for being a ww2 denier, because who Hasn't heard of it?
She spends Hours on top of her already overwhelming schoolwork studying all the 'basics' they never taught. (Or blatantly taught wrong) she goes to a party with lots of alcohol and a room thick with weed smoke and one guy puffing out rings like he's motherfucking Gandalf (a reference she does not yet understand) says "you were in a cult man."
She was in a cult.
Mia gifts Maya some accurate history and science books. Maya, who wants her sisters approval and attention SO bad devouring them and relaying everything she's learned. It makes her feel so nice that Mia calls her every week and pays such close attention- asks questions and clarifications and everything! - despite how busy she is.
Meanwhile Mia's taking desperate notes to Maya's impromptu lectures because she will NOT be seen as a uninformed hick again. She's Mia fucking Fey goddamn it.
let me see if I understand these rarepairs correctly:

some sherlock inspired detective mia sketches that i made before for the DGS meiji theme zine
but I couldn't really nail it so went with miko Mia instead in the end so here are just the sketches 😔
So I’m obsessed with the idea of a Mia game. I know it’s very unlikely to ever happen but one can dream. I adore the concept, but something I’ve always wondered is what would actually be the point ? Because we know Mia’s story and the story surrounding her. There isn’t much left to explore, right ? We know what her life story is, we know the Fey lore, etc.
But then I thought, that’s on the assumption that this hypothetical game is… only played when she’s alive.
This is just a ramble post not a serious analysis so this is gonna be messy, but bear with me. I think it could be very interesting for a Mia game to have sections from when she was alive and sections after her death. It could explore her character in more depth, seeing how she was as a living person in more detail and how she dealt with her own death, and also the grief her death caused to other characters. Something I’ve seen a lot of people talk about is how they wish Phoenix and Maya’s grief was explored more thoroughly, and this could be an opportunity for that. There could be scenes of Phoenix talking with us while Maya is channeling us outside of court, seeing through Mia’s eyes their reactions to her corpse, scenes of Mia and Maya communicating with their “writing on a notepad” technique, etc.
Now how would the death sections play ? Honestly I have no idea. As I said I’m just putting ideas down instead of thinking through the millions of factors involved in game design. Maybe it could be like investigation sections, where you listen in on conversations of relevant characters as a ghost and investigate the crime scene without being hindered by the police, since they obviously don’t know you’re there, then throw hints at the defence during trials ? There could be a mechanic of having to signal which evidence to look for, like subtly moving evidence on the desk so the relevant ones are most visible for the lawyer to notice. With ghost powers. Idk how ghosts would function in the ace attorney universe but hey this could be an occasion to explore that too.
I’m saying “lawyer” instead of just Phoenix because honestly idk how you could have Mia help Phoenix in new cases without messing with the trilogy story, so maybe it could be a new lawyer. Again i’m just spitballing here
In short, Mia game pls capcom
A Meeting of Souls
I swear if there’s a AA/GT crossover game/movie and Sissel doesn’t interact with Mia Fey then…I just don’t know.
Maybe I should have drawn Pearl instead of Maya, but Maya is such an adorable space-case and I love her to bits.
People say that phoenix learned being a bitch mostly from mia. And while that may partially be true, i think he's had it in him the whole time. Imagine the first time Phoenix makes a bitchy comment about something in front of Mia and she thinks "... this might work even better than expected"
mia fey might have died today but she will forever live on in my heart
Miles Edgeworth is a dog person who has cat energy. conversely, Mia Fey is a cat person who has dog energy.
