Miles: The hardest part about being in a relationship with a defense attorney from the Wright Anything Agency isn't facing them in court.

Simon: It's the fact that they all have magical lie-detecting powers.

Klavier: We can't get away with shit.

It's not pedophilia or inherently predatory to ship an adult woman character with an older adult male character.

It just isn't.

You can be grossed out about it all you like, and you don't have to ship it.

No one is saying you have to like age gaps.

But every time you call it "pedophilia" or "illegal" what you are doing is you are infantalizing adult women and removing them of their legal and social agency.

Calling an adult woman being shipped with an older man inherently predatory is misogynistic.

[rayfishandchips]

we should start asking "who is the prosecutor in this relationship and who is the defense attorney" instead

It makes me sad when I look at Ace Attorney fandom stuff from 10-15 years ago and see how much more comparatively chill and accepting they were of different ships from the most popular ones back then. It wasn’t perfect or free of discourse, obviously, but at least fans could mostly get away with shipping that stuff without getting called horrible people, unlike today where the Ace Attorney fandom is determined to bully anyone who dare ship the Unacceptable Stuff™️ out of the fandom (ESPECIALLY on aatwt my goodness). I know this isn’t just me because I’ve seen even certain older fans note this and say stuff like “Wow I’ve been in the Ace Attorney fandom for years and back then there used to be so many Narumayos and ppl who shipped so-and-so in het I’m so glad these are no longer acceptable we’ve come so far” WRONG. The fandom has turned into a hivemind who think it’s acceptable to unperson others over ships and will sooner sympathize with one who harasses another over a Bad Ship than the one getting harassed because how dare they ship outside the sacred stuff. You really think it’s a good thing the AA fandom environment has gotten tyrannical about what you’re allowed to ship? Old Ace Attorney Shipping Fandom was FAR from perfect, but if your reasons for why it was bad or worse than now are “ships I dislike were allowed to exist” hoooooo boy.

Y'all get so much hate for nothing. Please keep writing or drawing about your ship. Ignore the antis, they don't go outside enough. Ships are made to make us happy and nobody should take that fun away from you !

I'm looking forward to playing Ace Attorney 4-6 again so I can see these two.

What I like in Ace Attorney is how ships, among other things, are something that passes from older generation to newer. Yeah, our dads/moms/whateverolderrelative have kissed, so we gotta kiss too. Truly, a series about one's legacy

[sirgawainofgalifrey]

ooo could i request a sappy cykesquill? like maybe they're holding hands and making heart eyes at each other?

(thank you for being open to making art of adorable ships people get chased with pitchforks for 💜)

Yes of course!!!

These two are so cute (the grumpy one is soft for the sunshine one 🥹)

And heart eyes you say?

The most persistent thought I've had since finishing Dual Destines has been: "Wow it's been a really long time since I've run into a pair that's as Aes Sedai and Warder coded as Athena and Simon are."
