Prosecutors As Your Adopted Parent

Edgeworth:

Edgeworth adopted you when you were about 8 years old. This was also right after Phoenix adopted Trucy. So often times, when your father would go help Phoenix with studying for the bar exam, he'd bring you with him and you'd play with Trucy. You and Trucy eventually grew to become best friends as you got older.

And you were the one who suggested adopting Pess. You saw her online and begged your father to adopt her.

---------------------------------------------------------
"Dad, please! You said we could get a dog someday!"

He looked at you before turning back to his newspaper.

"Yes, someday."

You sighed. "Dad!"

You pouted and gave him the puppy dog eyes.

A few minutes later you were driving to the shelter.
---------------------------------------------------------

From a young age, you would go with him to the graveyard and visit his father, who you affectionately referred to as 'Grandpa Gregory'. Edgeworth would watch with a slight smile as you talked to the headstone. At the end of the visit, he would pick you up and wait for you to say goodbye.

He brought you every month without fail. It upset you greatly when you couldn't visit, but he always reassured you that you'd come back soon.

---------------------------------------------------------
Your father stood, dusting the grass and dust off his clothes.

"Alright, (Y/n). It's time to go home."

You turned to him, your smile fading slightly.

"Aw, ok..."

He picked you up in his arms and turned. You waved at the gravestone.

"Bye, Grandpa Gregory! We'll be back soon!"

Franziska:

Franziska adopted you when you were 7 years old. Your mother was the murder victim of a trial she prosecuted and your father was the murderer. You were left orphaned and scarred by the whole ordeal. But she also saw herself in you. You were a fierce fighter through and through.

She taught you the way of the law and of prosecutors. By the time you were thirteen, you were getting ready to take the bar exam.

---------------------------------------------------------

You sighed and turned towards your open bedroom door. "Mother! I need help..." Franziska entered a few minutes later and looked down at the book you were studying.

"Rules Of Law...What do you need help with?" You looked down at the book. "Insanity...Last resort or...?" She sighed. "The insanity plead is something of the past. There's no need to learn it."

She ruffled your hair. "You'll pass. I know you will. You have more skill in one pinky than all of those other prosecutors combined."

---------------------------------------------------------
At the age 15, you were diagnosed with dyslexia and it took a toll on you. You had already passed the bar exam, but you hadn't taken up your first case yet. With your condition, you felt that you couldn't be a good prosecutor. You often read reports wrong or wrote things wrong.

Franziska always reassured you though. She helped you develop a more positive attitude and she often advised you 'Make it make sense' when you struggled.
