#but SHUSH its fun

So I've been playing The Great Ace Attorney, which is one of the newer games by Capcom that features the appearance of The Great Detective, Sherlock Holmes. (Annoyingly named Herlock Sholmes since this game came out before he was fully copyright free.) And I was trying to figure out what year the game took place in. I heard one character, Mael Strongheart, mention the "Great Exhibition", and immediately it hit me that he was talking about the World's Fair. But, you see, the World's Fair was only hosted in London twice. 1851, and 1862. The first Sherlock Holmes story, A Study In Scarlet, was published in 1887. "Oh, well. Guess they shifted one forward or one back." I figured. Except, hold on. Mael Stronghart mentions that he wants to make "Paris' World's Fair look like a toy shop." So, the World's Fair isn't new, and it's been hosted in France before? The first time France hosted the World's Fair was in 1855, and was the only other host before the UK's last fair. And the timing would still be mis-labeled. Except. Except.
On the Wikipedia page, I went searching for the World's Fair which presented the Eiffel Tower, as I was wondering if it would be this one. The Eiffel Tower was actually presented in 1889. Okay, coolio. Technically after the first Holmes story, but, this Exhibition was hosted in Paris, France. Not London, England. But there's another exception. In the 1889 World's Fair, France had the French Revolution on their minds. And so they themed the Fair around Revolution and Anti-Monarchy ideals. And so, quite a few countries chose to boycott the exhibition instead. And would you be surprised, that one of the groups on that list was the United Kingdom? This would line up quite perfectly with the events of the game. In 1887, Sherlock Holmes comes into existence with the publication of A Study In Scarlet, which in the canon of The Great Ace Attorney, is the first publication of his adventures. In 1889, Paris, France hosts the World's Faire, titled the Exposition Universelle.
The United Kingdom, a monarchy, boycotts this exhibition because it is anti-monarchy. That year or later, they decide, in TGAA, to host their own exhibition, to outshine the exhibition in which Paris dominated with their presentation of the Eiffel Tower, a feat of modern architecture.
Because Holmes is a prominent character in the game, he talks at times about the very stories he appears in, and references them as "Short stories". The very first short story to feature Holmes was A Scandal in Bohemia, published 1891. And within the events of the games, there are cases which strongly resemble: The Red-Headed League,
The Man with the Twisted Lip,
The Adventure of the Speckled Band,
and hints to a few others. The Red-Headed League is the earliest of these to occur, and being published in 1891, makes 1891 the latest possible year the events of TGAA could have occurred. Therefore!
I put it to you, dear reader, That the events of The Great Ace Attorney, published by Capcom Begin and occur throughout the year of 1891! And I probably could've avoided ALL of the World's Fair talk, but WHERE is the fun in that??

#the great ace attorney#the worlds fair#it was an interesting puzzle#sherlock holmes#herlock sholmes#hes just a silly little guy making silly little comments that happen to point to exactly one specific year for the events of the game#and maybe it was a bit much to examine this#but SHUSH its fun

If you're stressing out about a part of the writing process for fanfic to the point where it's not fun anymore, just don't do that part
Post that fanfic with 1000 grammar and spelling errors. Make your characters OOC and give it a Mary Sue. It is a hobby you're sharing not a literature assignment you have to turn in by midnight
#sara shush#sorry to all the people who ask me if ill ever uber correct all the errors in my fics but i dont care enough for it#i like the fun parts of writing#like getting the story across and exploring the characters and ideas and relationships#idc if its not perfect its a fanfic#like dont get me wrong i wanna bookbind again one day so ill get around to it eventually#but if you stop having fun doing the writing then what are you writing for

Rogues Gallery AU Ratchet and Drift details vvv
Drift, formerly going by the name Deadlock, has long since retired her career as the hired assassin Cheshire after ending up at Ratchet's free clinic 10 years ago. The two now live together and have since gotten married at some point, with Drift sometimes helping Ratchet out in the clinic. Otherwise, she trains her athletic skills relentlessly and repaints/maintains her old gear in case anyone decides to cause trouble for either of them. You never know what might happen in Gotham City...
Ratchet runs a free clinic in Gotham, treating anyone or any bat looking for help. Her history with Prowl is long, and she doesn't necessarily approve of Prowl's decision to don the cowl, but she'll still help out regardless. Ratchet's currently been looking to retire alongside Drift some time soon, but has tremendous difficulty staying away from her clinic.
Both can break every bone in ur body if they really wanted to
#Rogues Gallery AU#yeah ik Cheshire isn't technically a rogues gallery member but shush idc its my au and i think its fun so yeehaw#also going with a super loose interpretation of Cheshire from the Young Justice show#don't ask how Drift is balancing on that bc idk either#been waiting over a week to doodle them agaagahhh#oh dick its 5 am again uh crap i gotta sleep gn#frootertooter archive#idw drift#ratchet#dratchet#humanformers#transformers#tf fanart#maccadam

do you think jenna marbles knows how appreciated and irreplaceable her presence on youtube was? does she know that she mastered the craft of making a video feel like hanging out with a treasured friend? do you think she knows that she was one of the last youtubers to feel genuine in her craft, making videos for the fun of it rather than making everything polished, elaborate, and distanced? does she know that even four years later we still miss her? does she know that an era of the internet ended when she left? i hope she knows we saw her. i hope she's having a great time.
#i have yet to find someone who can make me feel how her videos made me feel#its not even anything particularly intense#its just a feeling of comfort#her videos felt like company#they still do even four years later#and this isnt me saying i dont get why she left or that i want her to come back#(in a very self serving way i do miss her)#(but for the most part i just hope she's having fun)#everything else feels so....capitalist in a way thats hard to pinpoint#and its not like i have no youtubers i like i have many many many#but none of them really fill the spot that she left#its all a little too clean#a little tooooo professional#that one day film/edit/upload just had such a vibe#her videos feel like old home tapes#sigh i miss her#jenna marbles#oh shush#youtube#youtubers

The complexity of accepting how wrong you were, but being far too late to change it.
You are simply left to wonder.
#vecna's generals#billy hargrove#the amount of fear i have posting this is immense#i have a bad history with talking about this guy#but i’ve become more open minded and less ignorant about him#and acceptant that regarding controversial characters someone will inevitably get upset#so fuck it let’s do this again#also this exact idea is a year and a half old and the old sketch haunts me so i need it to gO AWAY-#have fun thinking i wanna hear thoughts#stranger things#stranger things au#steve harrington#max mayfield#stranger things art#ALSO FIRST DESIGN LEAK#ALSO ALSO I SPELLED GRIEVED WRONG I KNOW SHUSH ITS 4 AM

have i mentioned how much i love my snails?
i love them a lot
so much that i really want, if i find a tank on sale or a cheap but good DIY option, to make a dedicated snail tank and have a bunch of them crawl around
they are so nice and cool and pretty
#personal#they even have personalities!#this one is very brave and moves a lot#never sitting on the same place#the other one is almost always hiding and spends a lot of its time hidden#you might say those are species-depended behaviours#and i'll say shush you're no fun

🎬 here! Thanks for reading my long rambles! It's okay, I didn't mind sending it again (it's either eaten by the void oooooor I was half asleep and thought I sent it). I read something about Es cover and I thought up something really silly in this AU.
I take the prisoners can hear Es' thoughts on their crimes (instead or our thoughts in this AU I mean), like talk out loud on their thoughts and the prisoners could hear. Imagine this. SOMEONE overheard Es singing the prisoner's songs after watching their MVs (listen, they're catchy) and that someone gathered everyone over to flipping eavesdrop on Es.
They get to enjoy Es' singing from the other side of the wall...and maybe make fun of how they sing some songs (Fuuta cackling at how monotone Es sang Mahiru's first song cause I remember Es seiyuu said that's how Es would have sang it).
Omg of course -- they're so fun and fitting, I really enjoyed them all!! And that'd be great aw! I definitely pictured there being microphones/recording devices in Es' room, for Jackalope and the team to listen in on as Es talks through their theories out loud (combined with a thorough journal). So I love the thought of the prisoners getting a little announcement in their cells like "hey, I know it isn't typical protocol to give you the live feed from the warden's room, but uh... you're gonna want to hear this..."
There's a silent, ongoing bet about the next song Es likes enough to sing. Yeah, Mahiru is horrified ("they sang mine all wrong!") and Fuuta takes the chance to poke a bit of fun about it. Singing Weakness and After Pain tugs on the group's heartstrings; it reminds them how young and emotional Es is. Plus, Muu is flattered that her song was the first one they found catchy enough to sing. Everyone is blown away by MeMe (and if they're anything like me, a little obsessed with how similar Es and Mikoto's voices are at certain parts).
Meanwhile, Kazui and Kotoko try not to take it too personally that Es never thought to sing theirs during the whole trial ;---;
#milgram#asdfggg i love that 😭#yeah i envisioned all their self-talk getting recorded and analyzed before given back to the prisoners#but its sweet imagining them overhearing es just vibing one day :')#es' tihtbilwy still kills me to this day LMAO its sooo monotone 😂#and really!! listening to the first few lines of meme i sometimes cant tell what version it is!#rip kazui and kotoko ;--; i cant wait for their covers 🤞#im also not immune to the goofiness of ten prisoners crowding around es' door and shushing eachother as they eavesdrop 😂😂😂#thats such a fun idea -- thank you 🎬!#lights camera sing your sins

the amount of downright nasty and confrontational anons that I see people getting on here currently is genuinely disturbing, whatever happened to minding your fucking business when no one is doing you any harm?
#shush chloe#frankly its frightening#if this is what you find productive or fun maybe you should think about seeing a therapist!?
