#i usually don’t like rambling in long text posts bc i overthink what im trying to say but i am thinking a lot of thoughts

no but thinking ab the untapped potential of klavquill. i only started shipping them bc i thought it would be hilarious but like… neither of them do much after their introductory game aside from a feature in one case (turnabout academy and turnabout storyteller), so who’s to say they don’t know each other—and who’s to say they didn’t know each other in the one year overlap klavier started working at the prosecutor’s office and simon was Not In Prison. like the timeline lines up and game is vague enough for it to be almost plausible

like hear me out ok they’re both so theatric and melodramatic. drama queens, if you will. blackquill definitely found him annoying to hell and back at first and klavier definitely found him terrifying at first but u know what. they are too similar for them to not eventually realize “well he is kind of funny”

and they both have incarcerated older siblings—and the juxtaposition of one accepting arrest in order to save their younger sibling no matter what the cost (yaaaay kidnapping!!) vs the other going to prison for a crime of such a petty, egotistical nature (or at least it can be inferred since capcom refuses to let kristoph’s psyche locks be broken) and blatantly using their sibling has so much potential in the unintentional similarities

and comparing the effects of reputation too like. famous rockstar super popular super “princely” looking (and then you look online and “oh but waaaait isn’t his brother a murderer… did he know the entire time… hashtag cancel the gavinners”) and then we got the ex-convict from death row now cleared of murder (but totally looks like he has killed so many people). also imagine them going to target together they would be so fucking funny please if paparazzi come to hound klavier simon can literally just loom in the background and scare them away LMAOOO???

and the fact that both have such immense trauma to deal with and could both grow and support each other. emotionally abused by an older brother who manipulated them, and sacrificed themselves for someone dear to them and was willing to take a death sentence for them (even though in localization California has not executed someone in a WHILE that threat was emptier than my head). needing attention and approval aforementioned older brother withheld in place of scorn, and self-sacrificing but emotionally reserved. idk interpretations of their characters can vary as interpretations of media always do but it’s just such an interesting relationship to me

also hot men with long hair yaaaay yippeeeeeee
