Don’t worry, I’m pretty sure he’d let you borrow his hair tie if you asked nicely

I baked a cake but I think something is wrong with it because it just updated the autopsy report

My friend gave me some cassis pastry cream from their workplace and I knew I had to make some sort of Edgeworth dessert!

Cake breakdown for pastry enthusiasts:

Vanilla cake with raspberry filling and cassis/blackcurrant pastry cream, topped with vanilla whipped cream, chocolate prosecutors badge, raspberries, and rosebuds

The pastry cream I did not make, but everything else is made from scratch. I tempered some dark chocolate and painted it with edible glitter paint, which is why it’s not very opaque. I put a real vanilla bean in the whipped cream and then piped Edgeworth’s jabot onto the cake. I also sprinkled some rose petals on the whipped cream from rosebuds i found buried in my tea collection. Overall I’m pretty happy with how it turned out given this is my first time making and decorating a cake!

Uhm happy (unofficial) klapollo day! Here is a mini comic I made 💜❤️

“After all…”

“… Evidence is everything in court.”

Dual Destinies “Turnabout for Tomorrow” What-If scene. Perhaps a bit too edgy for Apollo, but I thought the concept was compelling! He gets shelved a lot in his own “trilogy” so he can have whatever he wants

13 Years Hard Time For Love - The Gavinners Lyrics

I translated/localized lyrics for “Guilty Love” and “13 Years Hard Time for Love” because I found the latter on Spotify (why isn’t anyone talking about it) and fit it back into the melody! And here is Klavier's VA singing it on YouTube:

1 2 3 4!

The dance floor where the rock’n’roll was playing Was the crime scene where I first met you I was taken prisoner by your heated eyes I fell in love, so! You have committed the perfect crime

Your gun loaded with magnum bullets shot me down Breaking my heart (bang bang) into pieces! That’s a criminal possession of firearms!

(Hard time for love, yeah) Now at last we find our sentence won’t be suspended So, lets jump right in To the prison of love that no key can open

(Hard time for love, yeah) Attempted? Accidental? Or willful negligence I can’t quit it now We’re model prisoners repeating our crimes

That rock ballad we used to play now haunts me At the crime scene where I lost you The tears that welled in your mischievous eyes told me Our love was over, so! Our perfect crime comes tumbling down

The hammer you brought down with all of your might Struck my poor heart (gang gang) into pieces! Isn’t that criminal property damage, though?

(Hard time for love, yeah) The statute of limitations have been abolished So, lets run away Using the jailbreak plans I made for us

(Hard time for love, yeah) Innocent or guilty? What to make of this love of mine? I’ve made up my mind We are accomplices racking up crimes

Ah, hate only the sin, not the sinner As for me, well… Just one more time, bitte Can’t you dismiss me of all charges?

[spoken] Let me just ask you one last time… Can’t you dismiss me of all charges?

(Hard time for love, yeah) Now at last we find our sentence won’t be suspended So, let’s jump right in To the prison of love that no key can open

(Hard time for love, yeah) Innocent or guilty? What to make of this love of mine? I’ve made up my mind! We are two accomplices racking up crimes

(Hard time for love, yeah) 13 years (Hard time for love, yeah) 13 years (Hard time for love, yeah) 13 years (Hard time for love, yeah) 13 years

And I'll post a fixed-up version of Guilty Love once I get the German ironed out (I don't speak German). More translators notes below! I may lose my mind!!

I kept everything as faithful as possible. Since it’s a song, I can’t fit the direct translation of the lyrics and opted to keep the meaning instead. I only had to change the meaning of one line in 13 Years:

絶対領域の恋さ

The love of "zettai ryouiki" — Which means, well, Google translate will tell you it means “absolute domain” which it does literally. However, it’s slang for the area of exposed thigh between skirt and stocking… what on earth is it doing in the middle of a Gavinners song, I have no idea. I guess Gavin is just into that kind of thing…? Admittedly he also sings about how the other person’s “sexy eyes captivated him across the dance floor” so the song is very different to Guilty Love, which is about blowing off your date to go to court with Apollo Justice.

--

So yeah translators notes: Klavier Gavin is a thighs guy and really into eyefucking, and I guess this is what I use my Japanese language education for? I have a whole list of notes about the song (Like, Genius Lyrics breakdown style) that I won't share here for the sake of brevity. Here are some of my preliminary comments:
