* AdaptationalIntelligence: Sebastian Debeste is much smarter than his very dim-witted main series self. Justified due to his CharacterDevelopment and that it's been several years since his last appearance there.

''Virtual, Visual, Viral'' is an ''Franchise/AceAttorney'' fanfic told as a ScrapbookStory consisting mostly of text messages between the main characters. Occasionally, it will also take the form of Instagram posts, Twitter threads, news articles, and other such documents to supplement the story from other perspectives. It started out as a Tumblr blog, but author [=TrueImmortality=] has uploaded the entire story onto Archive of Our Own, making it easier for [[ArchivePanic those who missed out on earlier posts to catch up with the story.]] The chapters/posts range from humorous one-shots to longer, more complex story arcs.
It takes place sometime after the events of ''[[VisualNovel/ApolloJusticeAceAttorney Apollo Justice]]'', but before ''[[VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorneyDualDestinies Dual Destinies]]'', with a few deviations from canon. Among other things, Phoenix and Edgeworth are an OfficialCouple, Phoenix has gotten his badge back prior to meeting and hiring Athena, and characters like Franziska von Karma and Klavier Gavin are no longer DemotedToExtra, corresponding regularly with the rest of the cast. Almost every major character has made an appearance at some point, including Kay Faraday and Sebastian Debeste from the ''[[VisualNovel/AceAttorneyInvestigationsMilesEdgeworth Investigations]]'' games.
The story can be accessed [[https://archiveofourown.org/works/37025041/chapters/92378500 here]] on Archive of Our Own and [[https://ace-attorney-dms.tumblr.com/ here]] on Tumblr.
!!This fanfiction contain examples of the following tropes:
----
*AngerBornOfWorry: Edgeworth goes ballistic at the beginning of "The Truth" arc when Klavier drives Apollo and Trucy to Kurain without telling Phoenix [[spoiler: because they'd just found out that he'd lied to them about their sibling connection]], going as far as threatening to have Klavier arrested for kidnapping them. He's shown to be highly embarrassed about it later and apologizes.
*BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: During the Hamaski Trial arc, Apollo threatens to leave the safety of Kurain Village and come back to L.A. if Klavier doesn't accept police protection from the mob. Klavier jokes that he would like to see "an angry Apollo Justice descending from Kurain like a vengeful spirit" before assuring him that he did accept the protection. Come "Blackmail, Part 3"... [[spoiler: an angry Apollo ''is'' coming back to L.A. and it does have to do with the protection detail, but not in a way that either of them could have anticipated.]]
*BewareTheNiceOnes: Klavier is just as friendly and noncorrupt as he is in the games, but messing with his friends at the Wright Anything Agency or the Prosecutors' Office is often shown to be a ''very'' bad idea.
*BigBrotherInstinct: Apollo and Klavier to Trucy; Franziska towards Edgeworth
*BigDamnHeroes: Ema, Sebastian, and [[spoiler: Simon Blackquill]] in "Blackmail, Part 3"
*CallForward: Apollo mentions offhand that he's had some experience with [[spoiler: having a sibling]], though he never mentions [[spoiler: Nahyuta]] by name.
*EasilyForgiven: Averted ''hard'' during "The Truth" arc when [[spoiler: Apollo and Trucy accidentally find out that they're siblings and Lamiroir is their mother. They're so angry that Phoenix hid the truth from them that they drive up to stay with Maya and Pearl in Kurain for several weeks. It's also revealed over time that Klavier, who drove them to Kurain and stayed to help them, is just as angry about it as they are.]]
*AFatherToHisMen: Edgeworth to the younger prosecutors, as well as Detective Ema Skye and Kay Faraday
*HappilyMarried: Gumshoe and Maggey
*HateSink: '''''Detective Sam Buchanan''''', the misogynistic, homophobic cop who gets beaten to a pulp by [[BewareTheNiceOnes Klavier]] after calling Edgeworth a slur. Edgeworth later reveals to Franziska that Klavier had been putting up with harassment from Buchanan for months. He later makes derogatory comments about Ema and finally crosses the line in "Blackmail, Part 3," when [[spoiler: he attempts to assault Klavier in the Chief Prosecutor's office (Edgeworth being in the hospital at the time)]]. He's completely despised both in and out of universe. [[spoiler: AndThereWasMuchRejoicing when Gumshoe finally fires him.]]
*NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: Ema, Sebastian, and [[spoiler: Simon Blackquill]] give one to [[spoiler:Buchanan]] after they catch him trying to [[spoiler: assault Klavier]] in the Chief Prosecutor's Office. Phoenix likens it to a MMA brawl.
*OfficialCouple: Phoenix Wright and Miles Edgeworth, as well as Dick Gumshoe and Maggey Byrde
*OnlySaneMan: Jose Martinez, one of the few confirmed good cops under Gumshoe
*ScrapbookStory: The entire fic is told in the form of text messages, Instagram posts, and the like.
*TranquilFury: When Phoenix makes an InnocentlyInsensitive remark comparing Klavier to Kristoph, Apollo has this to say:

*VitriolicBestBuds: Ema and Apollo with Klavier. Clay and Apollo also fall into this dynamic at times.
