before the canon update he was 21 due to an ingame birthday so more like 20 and a half

he was taken from exactly five years from his original canon point

ooooold

which means in 'time lived' he is actually like 25 and 3 quarters WOW LIKE PHOENIX CAN TALK

he's young a heart ☆

you're like 80 in your soul

It's actually been really interesting trying to reconcile his canon development with his Exsilium one, because Exsilium Edgeworth had slightly better self-esteem

is that why his hair's so grey?

he was born that way

touche

Ra Ra ah-ah-ah rama ra-ma-ma ga ga ooh la

im sorry ill stop ruining your meme

I think it's been good for him to be in an environment where he isn't as famous as he was back home (which is also probably one of the reasons for his leaving america)

yeah squigs YEAH

I mean he was probably KNOWN in the international legal community, but less vicious rumours

I mean in hindsight famous isn't even the word for it

infamous?

notorious?

haha yep

I had notorious written but then it just looked so funny

I wasn't sure if I'd spelt it right

famous like gourdie

the other mystery of gourd lake

speaking of gourdy

i just laugh every time i think of that detention centre scene

where edgeworth is like 'I WAS LOOKING FOR GOURDY' when Phoenix asks him what he was doing at the lake

Hey let him have that one childhood dream

jfkjsdksgf

he really just didn't want to talk about his dead dad okok

finding gourdy is like waking up to see your father is alive

edgeworth pls ur issues
