Night falls upon the arena, and with the darkness comes new dangers.

The cold creeps into the tributes shelters like a burglar, stealing warmth and leaving them shivering. A few light fires, others wise enough to huddle together or use blankets for warmth rather than give away their position. Kay is not one of these people, starting a fire with relative ease and unaware of the eyes watching her.

A shadow darts into her campsite, the element of surprise giving the attacker a lethal advantage. Unprepared, Kay is pinned down in seconds. She stares death in the face, eyes wide and terrified, begging for her life to be spared.

Her pleas fall on deaf ears. Iris leaves the campsite, securing the first kill of the games.

Ema also makes this deadly mistake, the smoke from her camp leading Nahyuta right to her. The fight is bloody, Ema as quick and sharp as her sais and Nahyuta swift and fluid, weaving through her attacks with the grace of a dancer. However, Ema’s inexperience with her weapons comes back to bite her, and despite her landing a few hits, Nahyuta ends up victorious.

But wait… he’s walking away. Is he sparing her? He seems almost impressed with her ability. Maybe he is hoping that she will take down other tributes to make his victory easier… or maybe he saw something visible to only him. I guess we will never know,

It seems another tribute is out for blood. Kristoph, having finally managed to stop the bleeding from his broken nose, searches for someone to take his anger out on. Eventually, he finds the perfect target: an unexpecting Maggey Byrde, who has managed to set several things on fire, none of them being the firepit she had built. Maggey, seeing Kristoph approach, fumbles for her sword.

Yup, as predicted, she is unable to properly wield it. Kristoph seems… disappointed? I might even categorize that expression as disgust. He seems to find Maggey an unsuitable target, eventually leaving her campsite as she continues to try to lift her heavy weapon, none the wiser to her attacker’s departure.

Those who refuse to start fires set temporary truces to get through the night. Franziska finds Apollo, the two exchanging glances at their loaded arsenals, before deciding to leave the fighting for another day. Klavier seems to have successfully ditched Oldbag, using the darkness as cover and sprinting back towards the Cornucopia. He finds Trucy, still huddled within the brass structure. Another confrontation, and in such an enclosed space? Surrounded by weapons? Ooh this will be fun!

…Never mind, Trucy is allowing Klavier to join her inside the Cornucopia. Well, I guess you can’t blame her. The truce is set, and they watch each other’s backs for the night.

Miles Edgeworth lives up to his renown brilliance by refusing to set a fire—oh wait, never mind! He’s attempting to start a fire and is failing spectacularly! Guess they don’t teach you basic survival skills in law school. He eventually gives up in a defeated huff and curls into himself, struggling to keep warm. He’s shaking as much as a wind-up toy, and his skin seems to have turned an even more unnatural shade of white.

Eventually, the shaking subsides, before stopping entirely. His breaths, coming out in weak puffs of pearly smoke, slowly cease as well.

We have other tributes on the move! Gumshoe seems to have temporarily joined the alliance between Athena, Blackquill, Maya, and Manfred. Him and Blackquill seem to be planning something. Eventually, they split up, determination set into their features. They seem to be looking for something… perhaps other tributes?

Blackquill seems to have a gift for tracking, quickly finding Oldbag’s campsite (though that in and of itself isn’t that impressive, given her loud, hysterical sobbing at having been abandoned by yet another attractive man several decades younger than her). Will he take advantage of Oldbag’s emotional state to quickly eliminate her?

Oh, now THIS is interesting! He seems to be taking a more… explosive approach. A loud BOOM resonates throughout the arena as Oldbag’s supplies explode, food and weapons flying through the air and falling like a light shower of rain.

BOOM. A second explosion detonates seconds later, this time at Dahlia’s campsite. She seemed to have been smarter in setting up her campsite, forgoing a fire and huddling in her small shelter. Unfortunately for our tributes, skill and clever planning is all undermined by the cruel hand of Lady Luck, and she is certainly not smiling upon the redhead. Gumshoe lucks upon this campsite and, upon hearing Blackquill complete his part of the plan, destroys Dahlia’s supplies as well.

Dahlia does NOT look happy. The murderous aura surrounding her is practically palpable.

Sleep is elusive for most of our tributes. The Judge and Manfred von Karma spend most of the night awake, seemingly reminiscing about home. Rayfa tosses and turns fitfully, before waking with a gasp. Nightmares are a sad reality in the games, and a costly one. Exhaustion could mean the difference between victory and defeat in a fight of endurance.

Our sponsors are continuously gracious, sending gifts to a few lucky tributes. Sebastian and Phoenix are among those gifted parachutes, the former receiving food and the latter receiving explosives. (Our audience just can’t get enough of them, huh? No judgement here, neither can I!) Maya, waiting for Blackquill and Gumshoe to return, doesn’t notice her parachute until the smell hits her. A savory, delicious aroma that is all-too familiar. The capsule is practically destroyed in Maya’s rush to retrieve the gift, squealing as she discovers that her hopes were realized. Several juicy, delectable burgers rest within the case, still fresh and warm. Maya grins, blows a kiss towards where she assumes a camera is (she is WAY off the mark, but we’ll let it slide), and digs into her feast.

As dawn approaches and our victors come to consciousness, Athena seems to be on the move. She strays a little away from her campsite, in which Blackquill and Gumshoe still have yet to return to, and eventually finds a small river. A lucky find… if you are smart about it. She seems excited, dancing happily and rushing to fill her canister. Smiling, she takes her first sip of cool, refreshing water.

The death that follows is agonizingly slow, the water a poison in her veins. Blackquill doesn’t find her until the sun has risen above the horizon, the stench of refuse and death settling in the morning like a low fog.

The cannon sounds, nearly drowned out by Simon’s anguished screams.

The Reaping

[turnaboutanything]

– Rules –

- I’m semi-selective. I’ll role play with anyone, mutuals or non-mutuals, but I’m saying I’m semi-selective, just in case since I can be a little picky at times. If your blog’s super inaccessible or your writing is very aesthetic, it’s likely I might not interact with you.

- I am in fact over 18. I’d rather not RP smut on blog, though. Suggestive stuff is fine, but anything farther than that is fade-to-black. (No suggestive stuff with muses under 18 though! Get outta here with that!)

- I’m a little behind in the series. I played through most of the games back in 2014/2015, so… I might be a little dumb to some things, but I am working through a replay, so hopefully, that won’t last forever. Beyond that, the games I explicitly haven’t played yet are Spirit of Justice, AAI2, Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright , and the DGS games, and while I’d like to avoid spoilers where I can, I don’t mind RPing with characters I don’t necessarily know yet.

- I’ll be pretty selective on shipping. (Sorry!)

My two major ships are Wrightworth and Klapollo, as far as I know. (I say as far as I know because I haven’t gotten to AJ again yet, but I’ll probably fall back into that ship all the same.) So, if you want those, I will be ready and down for that, but anything outside of that? Might take me a minute. 

Things I’ve definitely considered and could probably get dragged into without much trouble, in no particular order, are:

Franziska/Maya

Ema/Kay

Juniper/Athena

Clay/Apollo

Lana/Mia (depends on when it’s taking place)

Beyond that, I won’t ignore canon! So, if you have a canon pairing in mind, I won’t just erase it and will usually enjoy writing it to character, but I won’t always necessarily ship it. Lastly, at the end of the day, I’m entirely a chemistry shipper! 

My only thing is that I will not do larger age gap ships or age gap ships where one is under twenty and the other over twenty. They make me highly uncomfortable for very, very personal reasons and that will be the end of that. Thank you. (Note: this is also something I might avoid you for. I'm trying to not think of it too much for the sake of RPing, but this really does make me truly unnerved and it isn't something I can help. Please understand that.)

- OC-friendly and multi-fandom welcome. This… might end up being something I’m a little more selective about, too, but I like leaving my options open! Don’t be afraid to interact or hit me with a DM!

- Discord. If you prefer role playing on Discord, don't be afraid to hit me up over DMs! I'm happy to RP over there instead!

- Don't reblog my art! I've chosen to do little doodles for this blog, but I don't want people to get the wrong idea about what this blog is about and I don't want to risk my art blowing up on this blog over my main. If you want me to post something so you can reblog it though, feel free to let me know and I'll slap it on my main just for you.

The same goes for my writing. I’d really prefer if you didn’t reblog anything you aren’t involved in RP wise, but if I write up something that isn’t necessarily for role play and you’d like to reblog it, let me know and I’ll post it somewhere you can share it.

– About –

Hey! I’m the mun over at @objectionabl3! I finally snapped! It was only a matter of time, of course. I did this the last time I tried RPing on tumblr, too. This blog’ll be a bit of a free-for-all: if you want me to write someone, just ask, honestly. (Though, obviously, if you want Phoenix, go to my Phoenix blog. I’m not gunna RP him on both blogs! Unless I have to, for some reason!)

Just to give you some ideas, the muses I’ll say I’ll definitely do off the bat, though, are:

Miles Edgeworth

Dick Gumshoe

Apollo Justice

Klavier Gavin

Others I’ll most likely do:

Maya Fey

Mia Fey

Pearl Fey

Larry Butz

Ema Skye

Trucy Wright

Kay Faraday

Franziska von Karma

Diego Armando / Godot

Athena Cykes

Simon Blackquill

Juniper Woods

Clay Terran (???)

(and so on and so forth...)

If I get through SoJ/PLvsPW/DGS/AAI2, then I’ll be willing to play characters from those too! (Very especially... Sherlock Holmes... and maybe Gregory Edgeworth...)

As for the mun, I was originally avoiding saying too much about who I am, but I have no self control and my personal blog is sort of indirectly linked here now, anyway. Whoops! So, if you’re wondering:

I'm Alistair! I go by he/him pronouns and if you want to shorten my name, I prefer Stair!

I have 9+ years of role play experience and, maybe… only solid month or two of tumblr RP experience, but I don’t think that matters too much, honestly. I was 4 - 5 years into RPing and I still didn’t even know how to solidly give people enough to respond to. I think I’ve gotten better, though. I hope so, anyway.

If I’m ever late to respond, it’s because I have ADHD and depression which is a very fun combo for productivity. I go through phases of being productive or not being productive at all which I apologize for, but unfortunately, I do the most that I can about it.

If you do ever really want me to respond, feel free to nudge me about it, though! As long as it doesn’t turn into nagging, sometimes I do need the reminder, especially if it’s been a while because I start to get scared you’ll be upset at me for not responding. (I also get stuck on responses sometimes because I won’t know where to go with it and messaging me usually gives me the kick I need to ask about it, too!)

If you just want to be friends, I am SUPER SUPER open to that. I love talking to people and I love making friends, so really, don’t be afraid to DM me! I want to hear from you, especially if you want to talk to me.
