I don’t know if your asks are open or not but I really like how well you speak your thoughts on the series! (Even if I disagree with you opinion sometimes, you really know how to present the opinion in a way that makes me go “ok, I see where you’re coming from”)

I’m new to the ace attorney series and I’m still going through the og trilogy but I’m the type of person that binges fanfics even if they have spoilers. This led me to hearing that trucy and polly are half siblings. This left me with mixed feelings (that I’m hoping will be cleared up once I play the games)

What are your thoughts on the fact that phoenix never told trucy and Apollo? I’ve noticed that even the side of the fandom that enjoyed the aj trilogy (and beanix) seem to agree that the ball was dropped hard there. It’s ok if you don’t want to answer me though, I know that while you like Apollo, you’re eh on trucy (I’m the opposite personally, to each their own there…)

@inanna-was-here Thank you for your kind and understanding words and welcome to the fandom! I hope you have fun! :D

SPOILERS FOR AA4 AND ON

....

I mostly pretend the 4th, 5th and 6th game don't exist so I don't have a concrete opinion on Wright not telling Apollo or Trucy that they are siblings. But if I have to chalk it up to something, in my opinion it's...

Disregarding my harsh opinion I am glad that you had the patience to write me an entire paragraph and liked a lot of my art :). For your valiant efforts I will gift you a small bunny Truce:

MERAKI…..meraki what does this mean…WHAT HAPPENED?!?!

"you're the writer, you control how the story goes" no not really. i wrote the first sentence and then my characters said "WE WILL TAKE IT FROM HERE" and promptly swerved into an electrical fence.

another random thing that stands out to me rewatching Steven Universe as an adult:

throughout the show there's this clear Vibe that Steven has inherited some big magical destiny, right? and it makes sense narratively: he's the son of Rose Quartz, leader of the rebellion, now being raised by her friends who were the last remaining survivors of an interstellar war. he's like a human child in most ways, except he has magical powers that start to become more obvious as he's getting older. no one like him has ever existed before. it's a big deal. raising him and figuring out how he's going to grow is its own unique challenge, because nobody knows what to expect. so of course there's this magical destiny vibe, given all that.

What's interesting to me, though, is that this magical destiny is in no way literally, physically present in the story, it's just something everyone kinda feels. Like, there's not some ancient prophecy about a half-gem, half-human savior. He's not the Chosen One in any literal sense, he just happens to give off Chosen One vibes. And I say that's interesting because it means that the fact he was kinda raised with this Chosen One vibe is completely a decision everyone around him made, for better or for worse. And the show is aware of this, because the weight of Rose's legacy and everyone's expectations of him is a constant theme, and as Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl all grow and develop, they also realize the downsides of them putting those expectations on a child. Like, Steven spends his whole childhood being told about how great Rose was, and how because he's inherited her gem he will probably inherit her powers - and that's not necessarily a bad thing. Imagine how awful things could have been if Steven had no exposure to the Gems and no knowledge of what they were or how they worked, and then his powers started coming in? It was hard enough even when he was surrounded by the most qualified Gem Experts on Earth. But being primed for all of this "you're going to have your mother's magical powers" stuff put a heavy weight on his shoulders, and then the fact that nobody else quite knew how his abilities worked meant he was constantly faced with the adults in his life looking to him with concern because they didn't know what was happening with him. That's gotta leave an impression on a kid - and, well, throughout the show and especially in SU Future we definitely see that it does.

I like the way the show handles the pressure that's put on him, and the fact that everyone is just... trying their best in a completely unprecedented situation. Nobody knows what to do or how to raise this kid, and that inevitably causes problems but everyone is trying. And Steven can feel that everyone is trying without knowing what to do and he just wants to help and not be a burden and none of his caretakers have said that he's a burden but he can feel everyone's confusion and concern and the expectations he's not living up to and he cares so much, about everyone, about everything. He's in an extremely unique position that grants him opportunities to help that nobody else has, and he feels like he's failing everyone if he can't fulfill that, and in the end it never should have been his job to fix things but somebody had to try. Somebody had to try, and he was one of the only people with the ability to stop the Diamonds, stop the war, stop the lies, stop his world and everyone on it from being destroyed... and he was just a kid.
