A/N: Okay, guys! Here is my, now-annual, Advent Calendar Fic! 25 days of a fic! (One chapter for every day until Christmas)

This year, the theme is Turnabout, and that means Edgeworth/Phoenix. It's set after PW3 and Ace Investigations. There will be mystery! There will be laughter! There will be slash! There will be pointless holiday mirth! There will also be a murder! Because nothing says 'Merry Christmas' like a dead person! No, but seriously. You can't have a Phoenix Wright fic without a case, so someone had to die. Luckily, it's an OC, so no one will really care too much! The first few chapters will be mostly about getting ready for the holidays, but the plot and slash will come, I promise! So, without further ado, welcome to the fic, and happy holidays!

December 2

The next time Maya brought up the 'Christmas Decoration Dilemma' was, unfortunately for Phoenix, only the next day.

"Next week!" he finally threw his hands up in exasperation. "We will put up decorations next week."

"But Niiiiiick!" Maya pouted. "We don't even have any decorations to put up!"

"We'll get some next week, then."

"But that time, you'll have another case, and we'll be too busy to shop properly, and we'll end up rushing and buying really lame-looking decorations and the office will look horrible!"

"…will you leave me alone if I promise to take you shopping tomorrow?"

"Consider me gone." She grinned, plopping down on the couch and turning on the television. Satisfied, Phoenix returned to balancing his checkbook. For the first time in months, all of the numbers evened out, leaving him with more than enough to get by on until his next case.

/Looks like Maya will get to decorate to her heart's content./ He thought grimly.
