I agree, that someone could make a good fic or something out of it. I mean, it DOES make more sense than alot of other pairings. But, like you said, that does not make it canon, and the only thing that bothers me about the pairing is how people claim that it is.

I've been called a homophobe for just simply stating that "I don't like that pairing" =\

[cftf.livejournal.com]

The only time homophobia should really be brought into it is, uh, stuff like I mentioned. (Or the strange aversion of people when talking about the whole 3-5 Secret to even consider the remote possibility that Edgeworth might be intended to be gay. But I don't think that falls under homophobia per se >_>)

clearly the person who told you that was a fantard. :P


I'm in agreement with Musouka, though. I honestly don't see much of "IT'S SO CANON OMG SQUEEEEEE" in the PW fandom, and I'm pretty damn active there. :/

[misscherri.livejournal.com]

Eh, I suppose.

I'm not the most active person there, I only know from one or two experiences. But if that's true I wonder why they have such a horrible reputation XD;

[cftf.livejournal.com]

You got me. I'm as puzzled as anybody.

[musouka-manga.livejournal.com]

Well, what's what I'd like to know! I understand that fangirls can get on other people's nerves, but I just haven't seen a lot of the behavior people are describing in general.

I mean, me personally, P/E is my only real 'ship' for Phoenix or Edgeworth--but it seems like the vast majority of P/E shippers are pretty open to other pairings. Many of them also ship Gumshoe/Edgeworth or Godot/Phoenix, and Diego/Mia...Gumshoe/Maggey, ect, ect, ect.

I'll gladly debate about subtext and textual readings, but at the end of the day, P/E is not canon. They aren't in a relationship in the games themselves...but I do think the subtext is absolutely deliberate. I don't know if this makes me an obnoxious "they're so canon!!111!" shipper like the type people complain about, but it's not my intention to annoy people...

[misscherri.livejournal.com]

It's perfectly fine to like a pairing, but as I said somewhere up there, it only bothers me if people are claiming non-canon pairings to be canon.

My roommate can bitch and bitch (I love you honey :D) about P/E and its fangirls, but in the end what it admittedly boils down to for her and everyone else I've ever observed is jealously of the sheer support it gets vs other, more obscure pairings.

I am not saying this jealousy is unjustifiable, because P/E IS probably the biggest ship in fandom, but there is plenty of fic posted every day in igiari alone that is NOT P/E.

I think what we have here is a case reputation preceding actual observation.
