#GOD. i love them

[trlvsn]

no but seriously the "my friend wanted some help with legal work" line in aa4 changed me as a person. i think about edgeworth trying to reach out to freshly disbarred phoenix in a million different ways and it not working, so this bastard pulls a damsel in distress move on the guy who's only weakness is people who need help and goes "wright:((( there's this very very tough case:((( innocent people will go to jail if you don't accept these first class plane tickets for you and your daughter and spend a week with me in this five star european hotel :((( oh i am so lost and confused ughh this legal work is killing me" AND IT WORKS MULTIPLE TIMESSSS

HASHIHIME SPOILERS MINAKAMI SPOILERS BUTTTT

I LOVEEE love that small parallelism between minakami and tamamori’s goldfish, which i definitely didn't pay much attention to the first time i played but this time i was like "oh wow it's right there".

Like on the first loop, tama comes home to find i dead and minakami turns up dead the day after. But there’s sth about how tamamori initially handles his goldfish, with little care, and it’s referenced by minakami how he’s lost other goldfishes this way… i think it says sth about how he takes minakami for granted, and then has to question their relationship from its foundation; minakami would never lie to him, minakami would always praise his stories...but with each loop he starts to find out more and more and he doesn't know what even is true anymore

On the second loop he leaves his goldfish to the shopkeeper and tries to avoid minakami’s death by telling him not to go to suido bridge. The result is the same—

And tamamori just says it was the goldfish's time to go, same timeline where he's convinced that god is telling him to give up on minakami and accept his death

Third time, he gives his fish more food than usual and preemptively puts a sheet over the fishbowl; he already knows it'll die. just as he already knows minakami will die and he can't really do anything to stop it

and kawase points out that the goldfish is pretty lively...

the same as how minakami had just 'confessed' to hating tamamori's stories actually and left

and then there's this line in the following loop

which reflects the way he cares for his goldfish: he fed him, changed the water...did everything he needed to do but didn't go beyond that to care for him. it's the same mentality he applies with minakami at first: he warned him, told him he'd die, he did everything he could yet minakami still went and got himself killed (which is the belief tama clings to because he refuses to believe it was a suicide; he refuses to go to the bridge and corroborate for himself because deep down knows kawase and hanazawa were right about it)

and then there's this

the association...the fact that at the end, minakami says how he remembers his fetus dreams and remembers when they were both fishes

best ship dynamic is when they go from "you fool" (derogatory) to "you fool" (desperate)

To anyone who thinks Bruce has a clear and consistent favourite child I raise you this: it is infinitely funnier for Bruce to have a complicated and elaborate “ranking” system of his kids that only he’s privy to.

Picture this: Batman, dosed with truth serum, gets asked as a gag from one of the goons holding him captive who his favourite bat-vigilante is and instead of giving a straight answer, he launches into this whole explanation about the ranking system and who’s in the current lead, who’s hanging behind, etc. At some point (this is a mystery to everyone involved) a whiteboard appears and he starts explaining his system like he’s a football coach before an important match. Out of nowhere he starts pulling out little cardboard cutouts of his kids and pins them to the board. At some point the red string comes out.

Jason hasn’t killed someone in a week? Automatically promoted to favourite. Tim hasn’t caused an international incident in the past month? Puts him a few points ahead that keep decreasing the longer he refuses real sleep (20 minute power naps don’t count Tim! Says powernap inventor Bruce Wayne). Cass gave him a hug this morning and wished him a good day? Favourite until he gets a call from dick telling him (without shouting!!!!) that he’ll be there for this week’s Sunday dinner. Duke accidentally scratches the Batmobile? Demoted to the “in trouble” zone (which, honestly, that’s where his kids spend most of the time in😭). Damian did not attempt to free all the animals in the zoo they visited? Favourite. Until Bruce found out he was just trying to conceal the cat hidden in his room that Bruce explicitly forbade him from keeping.

Dick arrives at the family dinner with a busted shoulder and a bruise the size of Texas on his face? Gets demoted so far down that even azraeil scores higher than him. He’s in the “in trouble” zone for a constant month after that. Oh one of them survived an almost death? Favourite for at least the next week. At least. Multiple people survive an almost death? EVERYONES the favourite. The least favourite is the growing grey hairs on his head.

The end of day results are decided by who bothers to wish him goodnight and if all of them have fucked up in some way the past week then Jon (Kent) becomes the automatic favourite until someone cracks a joke that Bruce actually finds funny.

The favourite child changes daily, hourly even, and his kids are aware this system exists and keep trying to crack the code but he always Knows and just smirks smugly.
