    Summary

    **
     
    “Sisyphus’ cheating of death earns him eternal punishment in the underworld, with the gods forcing him to roll an immense boulder up a hill… only for it to roll back down again.”

     
    Arthur Lester has everything in his life.
    A successful career as pianist, an adorable daughter, and sometimes even a beautiful, talented wife.

     

    So why does everything feel so wrong, like something’s missing?

     

    He keeps meeting a stranger who knows him far too well, and through him, begins to slowly unravel the truth about the life they’ve forgotten, and the brutal choice he made to try and fix the unfixable. Stuck in a loop of his own making, Arthur relives a fractured version of his life over and over again. With changing details and choices, but always with the same goal: a future where Faroe lives.

     

    This is a story about the five stages of grief, written from Arthur’s point of view, loosely based on the Greek tale of Sisyphus and the Australian movie “Triangle”.

     

    The denial. The anger. The bargaining, depression, and ultimately…acceptance.
    That no matter how many times he tries to rewrite his own history, he might just have to let go.

    Summary

    After years of legal complications, it's finally time for the reading of Manfred von Karma's final will and testament. In need of some moral support, Edgeworth requests that Phoenix supply his 'consultation services' and accompany him to the von Karma family estate in Germany (despite having been disbarred for two years and just about zero knowledge of inheritance law).

    Sure, Phoenix had been expecting to deal with the ensemble of judgey relatives (not literally, thank god), jetlag, crushing homesickness for his daughter, and even von Karma's tragic interior design choices. A whole murder case, however? That he hadn't accounted for. (Which, in retrospect, may have been a bit of an oversight because he and Edgeworth really do seem to be magnets for this kind of thing...)

    Summary

    “Merlin!” he calls out, and nearly falls over himself to take the three remaining steps to his manservant. He breathes hard, putting a hand on the raw, red material of Merlin’s tunic. There is something under there.

    A head peeks out, and blue eyes stare at him.

    “Who are you?” a child demands, with Merlin’s familiar eyes and a mop of dark hair falling over his forehead, and two ears sticking out from his face. “How d’you know my name? Are you a knight?”

    “Oh, no,” Arthur says, in what he thinks is a very apt assessment of the situation.

    Summary

    " 'I invited Muichiro to live with me,' Tomioka says, 'and he accepted. So I wanted to-'

    'Why the fuck would you do that?' Sanemi blurts, more confusion coating his voice than anger now.

    'He's a child. I wanted to know if you'd consider coming with us.'

    'This is a terrible idea, me and you.'

    'I know,' Tomioka sighs, 'but I can't ask anyone else.' "

    Or, the war is over, leaving only Giyuu, Sanemi and Muichiro as the surviving Pillars. Though broken and alone, there's half a chance they'll be able to make themselves whole again with one another- even if they're the world's worst roommates.
