I could see this if AA were a more realistic series about realistic people, but I don't think the writers understand common closeted behavior with that type of nuance. It is exactly what it looks like, a guy completely infatuated with a girl and it's played up to the nth degree for comedy because AA does that with everything.

I'm not the OP, I ship Narumitsu and I see Phoenix as bi. I think your take is interesting as an alternate interpretation of the text, it's just clearly not what was intended.
pantswarrior: Phoenix's stupid hat covers up the fact that he still has lawyerbrains. (pw)

Totally fair. I also am guessing that's not what they intended, honestly, but given the way he's so fixated on Miles throughout the rest of the series I was like "...yeah, I'm not sure I buy this" and ran with it. XD

At any rate, alternate interpretations are fine by me! Honestly don't hate OP's headcanons on their own either. It's just that when anyone gets judgy over headcanons and saying that theirs is ACTUALLY canon that I start to think it's not worth having discussions...

(Actually kinda missed AA discussions. There's so much absurdity to play with in these games...)

DA - I do think it was intended for him to come across as a silly guy in a pink sweater with a "puppy love" and very immature about it back then. Not that it was intended for us to read that as "oh, he is closeted" but rather "oh he is immature" and with immaturity comes lack of self-awareness and such.
