Professor Layton Vs Ace Attorney - Tumblr Posts

Ace Attorney 20th Anniversary Illustration by Kazuya Nuri









Sequel PL vs PW where Layton gets framed for a murder (which Maya got accused of first because she always does), but he gets bored from the lack of puzzles in jail and breaks out to solve the crime with Pheonix and then comedic manhunt hijinks ensue and it’s stupid and shut up I can dream
on a side note I absolutely did not have the time to do these.


Here are Maya and Luke’s designs for my laywright au! (and the whole team together just for height comparison.)
As far as I’ve tought, the synopsis for the au is that Luke’s spirit got separated from his body, which makes professor Layton go seek the help of Maya Fey, the spirit medium - who happens to work with famous attorney Phoenix Wright. On their quest to find out what sort of power affected Luke, they end up caught in a great mistery involving some vengeful ghosts from Wright’s and Layton’s past...
I think I’ll keep working on this thing, so asks are welcome!


Well, I’m not even sure if Godot will play a big role in my au, but I thought about how cool his design would look so yeah here he is
And a bit of lore: the ghosts in general never look 100% human, their forms are always a bit (or very) monstrous. That’s why Godot has the weird eyes and Luke has a fish tail and because his name is Triton sooooo... Mia, however, retains her human appearance since she had spiritual powers. (Might change her design a bit though)

Some more designs for my plvsaa au! This time, the grey-haired-scary-looking-but-actually-softies prosecutors. since this au is set after what would be it’s version of the origninal trilogy events, they’re already in friendly terms with Wright and co. now. I think Wright and Edgeworth dated back at some point, which didn’t work out (for a number of reasons I may get more in detail about later). Still, from this failed relationship they built a really strong friendship. They just know they can count on each other for anything, be it fighing ghosts, battling in the courtroom or asking romantic advice of how to get to their new crushes (Wright’s is Layton, and Edgeworth’s… welp, I’ll reveal that soon enough). Also Franziska and Maya will date at some point bc franmaya rights
I have a question like how did Luke become a ghost or spirit?By the way I love your artwork
thanks for the compliment! :D and as for how it happened...
It was a dark and windy night. Famous archaelogist and mistery-solver professor Layton and his apprentice Luke were returning home after a long day, solving some puzzles to distract themselves from the cold.

Then, a stronger gust of wind blew. Stronger and much, much colder. Closing his eyes and bracing himself, Layton could only describe the feeling as his if very soul was being freezed. When the wind stopped, Layton checked on Luke - Only to see him fallen, like he had fainted.

No matter how much he called, the boy didn't wake up. So Layton hurried and took him to a hospital, only to find out Luke wasn't the first to faint after a freezing gale. Apparently, this had been happening all over town with a few people, and none of them had woken up yet. The doctors were still trying to figure out what this strange phenomenon was. As Layton got back home, the gears in his head turning furiously, he found a message waiting for him, written on the condensation of his window...

The drawing... It was supposed to be a ghost, right? No matter how much of a man of science he was, Layton wasn't about to ignore his dear apprentice's cry for help. He had to find out the answer for this mistery... And searching through some old journals, he just the idea where to start.

As for what happened next... Self-renowed "Greatest Ace Spirit Medium Ever Maya Fey" was able to make Luke's spirit visible to the rest of the team, and the four of them would search for answers together. But that is a story for another day.

SCREW THIS *gives myself a laywright as a birthday present*
More stuff from my au. Not sure about the context for this, but i’d guess it’s their first date, ending with a dance in the streets. And, btw, the little blue stone Layton’s wearing was a gift from Wright. c:

Laywright... but with soulmate markings... that represent each other..... and glow according to their feelings.......
I can imagine that Luke and Maya would enjoy pulling pranks on Phoenix and Hershel!
Hah, that's adorable! Personally, I think Maya would love to pull pranks on Nick on every possible ocasion, when she realizes she has a (temporarily) ghost friend who can make stuff float or disappear and things like that. And I think Luke would be a little nervous at first, afraid of upsetting Wright, but as soon as he gets closer to him he would enjoy helping Maya. But. Luke would be SO nervous if the target was Layton. And Maya would soon realize Layton is so annoyingly OP he just kinda predicts the pranks and silently avoids them. So they keep targeting Nick. Who eventually gets tired of this and asks Luke to help him prank Maya this time. So the three just kind of get locked in an eternal war while Hershel calmly drinks his tea in the corner, completely unnafected.


I got a suggestion to draw Flora in my au, and I had no idea what to with her at first. But, then it hit me: “Hey! Since this is a crossover... they both have flower-related names and big dark eyes and kiiind of a similar color pallete... YUP THEY’RE SISTERS NOW”
Flora Reinhold and Dahlia Hawthorne are the daughters of Augustus Reinhold and Violet Hawthorne. When their parents pass away, Flora has only her sister... but she always knew she couldn’t be trusted. The only one who saw Dahlia for who she really was. And after Dahlia becomes a vengeful and powerful spirit, Flora seeks help from the four ghost hunters. Dahlia could have stopped her. But she lets her little sister go and call the heroes... Since she’d really, really like to have a little chat with her dear Feenie again.
As far as I’ve thought, this devil of a woman will be one of the three main villains in the au. And she’ll have a cool ghost form, of course, but that’s a drawing for another day ;)

*slams door* HEY GUYS WANT SOME DUMB LAYWRIGHT SKETCHES
Drew this one based on @lumivee ‘s beautiful suggestion of Maya interrupting their romantic moments. Poor men. Looks like they’ll have to throw her in a room full of steel samurai DVDs to get some peace.

And now a drawing based on @robyn-runestone ‘s suggestion of Maya turning Luke into a Steel Samurai fan and, surprisingly, Layton too (who tries to hide it from everyone). This leaves a very confused Wright to wonder why the heck does he still share his life with these people.
And now, how will Layton jutify to his partner why he likes a stupid kids show? find out on the next episode of THE STEEL SAM- i mean, on the part two of this post. (I’ll post a link to it here when its done)
Consider: Hershel is the perfect height for Phoenix to kiss him on the forehead

Very much considered
