That was definitely interesting.
I like how you described their rivalry, and how Matt was so perfectly in character.
It's also interesting to think that Matt got his scars from an accident, cause I always figured someone did this to him because of how much of an ass he is XD
I guess everyone has their own theory :P
And btw, you're right, it IS weird to think of Matt having a mom. Parents even XD
So yeah, I really liked it, so keep up the good work ^^

A nice insight into these two characters' lives and relationship to each other.
And, no, I have no idea who the mother was modeled after.

Wow, so many confusing points, I liked it!
Both men were really in character (erm, well we wouldn't know about Juan but we can guess!) and I suppose you can always blame the parents for how their kids turn out.
This story gives a good veiw on their relationship and you've reflected it wonderfully
Well done :)

Almost forgot. Y'know who I'd guess Mrs. Engarde was? She reminds me of Mrs. Petrelli from Heroes. Probably wrong, of course!

Zarla, you have been my idol in the Phoenix Wright fandom for SO long.

This was great, an interesting look into the pasts of two characters I always liked. Good and long, too. They never did tell what kind of history Matt and Juan had, or how Matt got his scars. You always have fascinating ideas. Was Angie a Trauma Center reference, by any chance?
