#Internal Investigations

He does know that if he does this, the FIA would be at risk of being prosecuted for structural mismanagement, specifically a breach of the requirements for conducting all internal investigations without delay (PDF, English document explaining French internal investigation law)? French law does allow for internal investigations to not occur if alternative suitable remedies can be offered without delay (such as mending the procedure that gave rise to the complaint). However, it is extremely doubtful that "no investigation at all because of who is implicated" would be legally acceptable as an excuse. Parenthetically, this also suggests that Ben Sulayem's backing is not as strong as it was at the start of 2024, because had it been, it is likely that he could rely on the ethics committee not giving him a serious penalty (given said committee has a strong record of rejecting any and all complaints against FIA presidents and their favourites anyway. Jean Todt got through 2 such procedures quite peacefully by more or less pretending they weren't happening and carrying on as usual).

MBS is such a cartoonishly evil villain because what do you MEAN he wants to change the rules so he has absolute power over the committee currently investigating him

Viewers have seen that the Infinity Knights keep tabs on their lot, no matter when or where they might go.

And, they will haul back individual Infinity Knights before the Internal Investigations Committee if he/she/they is/are deemed to have broken Infinity Knight regulations.

You know how people say they're their favorite character's defense attorney? Well I'm the state prosecutor trying to convict Gwen Bouchard. Of what? No one is sure. I'm up there making long winded statements to the jury about everything she's done. I'm calling up witnesses, I'm cross examining, I'm interviewing experts, trying to get to the bottom of what exactly her deal is. Despite no one knowing what the charges are I'm arguing to the judge for her to be sentenced to 1000 years in my mind prison where I will be poking and prodding and conducting experiments on her. The judge is close to holding me in contempt of court. I should probably be disbarred from being a blorbo attorney.

My favorite 'eat your hamburgers, Apollo' moment will always be in AA Investigations 1 when the third case hinges on the fact only law enforcement is allowed to carry guns. In America.

Lang strolls up to us and is like "remember your country's gun laws?" never fails to feel surreal. like if you've temporarily forgotten this ia actually a Japanese game, here's the BIG reminder!

(They do vaguely indicate it's a recent law and say "federal firearms act" or something (party like it's 1938! I do appreciate the throwback there), sort of vaguely indicating "this is an AU! and it's the future! remember!" but it's like. for sure one of the moments the localizers were "ok we can't really do much about this so whatever" in the game.

So apparently, todays international lesbian day AND NO ONE TOLD ME. (A LESBIAN.) But either way, heres a quick sketch for international lesbian day!

I saw this tiktok that rode a horse with the lesbian flag and it reminded me of franziska, so i had that fanart idea, then me and kanna were replaying investigations, kay said something about wanting to have a ride on a horse... And something CLICKED.

Oh and.. you can guess who the horse was, he's just trying to be supportive to the lesbians PART TWO. I think i owe him a seperate fanart for his constant support

It’s the Man’s birthday!!! Which means that yeah I’ll talk about him finally

The Man is the titular character of Man Swears Forever, my big work-in-progress story! He has an actual name, but I like calling him the Man and that's what he is called for 90% of the story. His name is very easy to find if you do a little digging because it's not like an active secret.

The Man is the type of person who likes it when things are in a particular order. Certain things must happen at certain places at certain times of the day for a certain duration, people should move about their day minding their own business, no questions asked, no kinks in the machine, no nothing. He has a colourful past but in the modern day he'd much rather forget about it all and focus on the now instead, with a lovely small circle of people close to him and his life's simple joys. He becomes annoyed or angry very quickly if things don't go according to plan, sometimes explosively so. Unfortunately for him, stories don't tend to have everyone having a good time all the time... and there's untouched pine forest in North Ostrobothnia with his name on it.

He's a little bit weird in places but he's cool <33

A mass grave was discovered at al-Shifa Medical Complex after a deadly Israeli assault last month left the Gaza City hospital in ruins. Several bodies were found Monday in the hospital’s courtyard, including at least one person wearing underwear who appeared to have been “executed recently” according to an Al Jazeera Arabic reporter at the scene. After Israeli forces withdrew from the hospital on 1 April, teams from several government ministries were deployed to al-Shifa to remove and identify bodies. The searches were initiated after survivors said they witnessed the summary execution of Palestinians by Israeli forces during the two-week raid that started in mid-March.

Who Is the Masked Menace?

For months now, our streets have been plagued with the DISGRACE that is the illegal vigilante who calls himself "Spider-Man." But just who is this man? What does he want? We here at The Daily Bugle strive to investigate and take him down once and for all!

reporter: In your first year as a collegial athlete, you called for then Edgar Allan's coach Tsetsuji Moriyama's resignation after practicing under him for two weeks. Would you say the same today, after experiencing the challenges of coaching yourself? Neil: As an Olymphic level athlete and a coach I can confidently say that Coach Moriyama should've been shot like a dog. reporter: *visibly remembers Neil's parentage* Neil: He's not worth the money or favours it would take to arrange it

I'd like to thank The Lake House for answering a question about Jesse's hypothetical potential management team in my head.

Head of Research = Emily. Thoroughly established.

Head of Operations = Arish. Quasi-established. He's uneasy in the acting role but shown to be more than capable.

Head of Security = Wells. Guy from the clocks mission. Shown to have integrity, a named NPC who is still alive, and I like him.

Head of Communications = Langston in an acting role that Jesse bullies him into, then Barry eventually, who is poised to be very well-suited for it after managing Alan and the Old Gods. After we retrieve Barry from the wellness cult or whatever the fuck, that is.

Head of Investigations = Estevez, eventually. Since it's a mostly-decommissioned department, I think it would remain that way until some stability was established, and the duties would otherwise be split between Jesse, Arish, and Langston. But I feel like Jesse would want to prioritize its ethical oversight duties as essential (the same way Trench prioritized internal security), and she and Estevez would get on like a house on fire.

actually what i think would be cool is an ace attorney game where each case is its own individual mini-spinoff. first case is kristoph gavin: ace attorney a few years pre-aa4 with apollo as kristoph’s college intern and clay as the defendant. we get to learn more about clay and apollo’s friendship alongside apollo+kristoph and krisnix dynamic. we’re forced to forge evidence because there isnt anything concrete proving clay’s innocence, giving us an inside glimpse into a corrupt attorney’s life. second case is simon blackquill investigations pre-UR1 where on someone else dies at the space center and metis is accused. we see more of athena/simon/aura/metis family dynamic as well as athena and juniper’s friendship as children. manfred von karma investigations (kid miles and vk family dynamic) or lana skye investigations (pre-SL9 ema mia gant jake angel neil) or mia fey ace attorney (maya lana pearl morgan diego maybe even dahlia and iris) or robin newman ace attorney/hugh o’conner investigations (self-indulgent but would be so cute)….the possibilities are endless……just fun little ways to expand on pre-existing character dynamics that might not have been discussed too much without necessarily making an entire game revolving around those characters
