one of my favorite things about the ace attorney universe is the way that you can inherit gay subtext from your ancestors/relatives
One time I saw someone head cannon Kazuma as Simon and Auras ancestor and all I can think about is that Kazuma was really petty that he didn’t get to have his gay lover so now NO ONE CAN and then he cursed the bloodline
Metis and Bobby died all cus Kazuma didn’t get to have Ryunosuke
I would do that too honestly
I feel like a lot of people boil down Aura to being bitter over Metis's death and completely ignore that she's ALSO bitter because her little brother is on death row. And no, I don't think it's fair to boil down her entire motive in Turnabout for Tomorrow to her being bitter over Metis's death. Remember that Simon essentially voluntarily went to prison to protect Athena. Of course Aura doesn't like Athena, she sees her as the reason her younger brother is in prison. While I don't think Aura's actions are justified, as an older sibling I understand why she did what she did.
And let's also keep in mind that the reason Simon takes the blame for Metis's death in the first place is because if it wasn't him, it would have to be Athena. Presumably, Aura knew this, and that's why she blamed Athena for Metis's death; if it wasn't Simon, which she firmly believes, then it had to have been Athena. Remember that Aura releases her hostages in the middle of proceedings once Simon's innocence is proven and before anyone's said Athena for sure killed Metis. Her focus was on making sure Simon was off death row and once his innocence was proven she removed herself from the situation.
Aura didn't just lose Metis to the HAT-1 bombing. She lost her little brother too. Had Simon's sentence been carried out, that would've left her with nobody.
So of course she's hellbent on getting Athena tried for Metis's murder. If it wasn't Simon, it couldn't have been anyone else, and she knows it wasn't Simon.
It's not fair to Aura's character to boil her down to one dimensional angsty lesbian. It's an important part of her character, yeah, but that ignores how much she also cares about Simon and the fact that if Simon gets executed, Aura's lost everyone. Obviously she's going to do everything she possibly can to not lose her younger brother too.
do you see what i see?
