Dahlia's decision is lowkey based

Warning: This post is meant to defend Dahlia's actions. It comes from a perspective of saying, "I can understand how she felt, and I condone what she did."

To be honest, Dahlia is one of the culprits in the classic Nintendo DS game, Iris Hawthorne: Ace Attorney, who received the least sympathy from fans — and I couldn't disagree more with that point.

Before you get angry, try putting yourself in Dahlia's shoes. Imagine this: you gave your sister one job — to get a necklace back — and she still hasn't done it after six months.

If I were Dahlia, I would inevitably wonder: "Why is she taking so long?"

And considering Iris' history of being a doormat, Dahlia almost certainly knew that side of her as well. It's only natural that she might think, "I might as well kill that guy" (what was his name again? Penis Trite?) and get it over with.

Of course, it's true that Dahlia's actions traumatised Iris, but Iris deserved it. She should've been thrown in the firepit for identity theft, instead of the slap on the wrist she got.

mia was kinda unfair to her by calling her a failed murderer and only saying that to get on her nerves. deep down everyone knows she was the best (and godot was a pure idiot in this story)

I mean, highkey Iris did fumble that time.

Eight months, and you can’t get it back from him when the guy’s sleeping or showering? Girl was either too nervous or a down bad closeted morosexual who didn’t want the charade to end.
