Apollo had taken on the babysitting duty like a badge of honour no less than twenty-four hours ago, but now - alone in Justice Law Offices with just him and little Faitah Inmee - he’s at a loss. He’d taken care of the younger children in foster homes, but none of them had ever been babies, and he can't for the life of him get the boy to settle down.
“Hey, uh, how’s this? You’re Faitah Inmee and you’re fine,” he says softly. Somehow, his famous positive affirmation doesn’t work as well when it’s being whispered instead of screamed. “You’re fine, right, buddy? And- and you’re loud. Wait, you are fine, right? You don’t need a doctor or anything? I, um. Is something actually wrong with you or am I just really bad at-”
“Calm down, son! He’s not even half as loud as you were at that age.”

After a minute, he finally spoke: “I would like to borrow some of your clothing.” Of anything, anything in the world he could have asked, Maya never would’ve guessed that. Miles Edgeworth, with his fancy burgundy suit that was likely worth more than everything Maya owned combined… in her ratty clothes? Her Steel Samurai t-shirt with the tear in the left armpit? Her kimono that probably wouldn’t even cover his hips?
“It’s past Halloween,” was all Maya could come up with after a minute of dumbfounded silence.

Sebastian Debeste is a strange creature, Simon finds, one who fails to be afraid of him and more takes than earns a place in Simon's life as he settles back into the world outside prison bars. A strange creature with secrets and past traumas as deep as Simon's own, it seems, and also honor and loyalty that have lasted through years without wavering.
In essence, then, they are very much the same.

Simon stands at the end of the hallway. It’s just as colorless as it had been over seven years ago, and people still dart through it and around each other like fish. It’s his third first day, each terrifying in its own way, and somehow, he feels more out of place than when he was one of the youngest in the room or when he was a convicted killer.
“Different, isn’t it?” Klavier Gavin asks, and it takes all the years of molding himself into someone new for Simon to hide the spike of surprise and fear that shoots through him.

The first time Apollo walks in on Trucy doing her injections, he freezes in his tracks. The sight of the teen sitting on the toilet lid, craning her neck as she mumbles out the instructions written in size five font on the paper that came with the prescription, is more familiar than he’d like to admit. But the addition of Mr. Wright, kneeling on the floor, pouring over the supplies with trembling fingers? That's less so.
He’s about to duck out of the bathroom with a mumbled apology, but there’s something about the tension in Mr. Wright’s shoulders, and Trucy’s expression when she catches his eye, and, and, and. Something inside him clenches, and he hears someone saying, in a voice that couldn’t possibly be his own, “I could help. I mean, if you want.”

She’d apparently then immediately stormed up to the office of the Chief Prosecutor himself, begged for a new assignment, and ended up with the only other prosecutor routinely in need of a detective.
Which just so happens to be him.

When he had frantically rushed to Apollo’s side after he’d been taken out of the wreck, he’d been asked if he was family. Probably because of the tears in his eyes (which nobody needs to know about, thank you very much!), but he’d feared that if he’d said no, he wouldn’t be allowed in the ambulance with Apollo. After all, why would his boss want to go with him to the hospital?
But he couldn’t let Apollo be left alone. He wouldn’t let him be left alone. And he’s Phoenix’s daughter’s half-brother anyway, so he wouldn’t be technically lying.
Yes, he’d said shakily. Yes, I’m family.
