#canon because I say so

I joke around a lot about phoenix having some sort of godly deity as his parent seeing as the naruhodou line seems to just be reincarnations of eachother,

but if i HAD to give him a human family, i’d say based on his character there’s evidence to prove literally anything, but i believe, and hear me out, that he was abandoned. Idk if he was just living on the street or in the system or one of those orphanages that you see in movies, but it makes sense to me!

Evidence:

- He has an INSANE urge to do whatever it is to keep those he cares about around, from eating glass, to changing careers, doing huge feats of heroism so they don’t leave or view him as ungrateful for them

- adopts very fast. I know we joke about Phoenix and his 1000 adopted children but it could also be an indication of how much he projects and wants these kids to have atleast SOMEONE looking out for him

- his whole life has been dedicated to making sure everyone has a fair chance and to never feel alone in a terrible situation

- he knows how to tough it out when tight on cash and is a fast learner when it comes to necessary skills to survive

- survives a LOT of things that he shouldn’t have (see: first bullet)

- very very cagey when talking about himself, which could be indicative of people judging his ability to work or be around or school

- guy who always has something to say to or about the people he cares about NEVER ONCE talks about his family (save for like, one instance of his mother which i cannot find for the life of me)

- this panel (tbh it proves more that he just. spawned. into the world. but whatever)

(from turnaboutarchives )

Never mind yeah. He totally just spawned. He’s not human.

Ace attorney lawyers aren’t human!
