some family headcanons (in order: van zieks, baskerville, asogi, holmes) not everyone has names yet šŸ«£šŸ’¦
i wrote more details under the cut ā¬‡ļø this info can also be viewed under the "tgaa oc guide" in my carrd (linked in my profile).
Holmes
Mycroft: heā€™s 7 years older than his brother in the ACD canon, but I wanted him to be around the same age as Klint and Lady Baskerville. He and Sherlock are 7 and 15 respectively here. I wanted his hair to be dark and over his eyes so itā€™d match his cynical attitude that things are about to go bad at any time. Also, itā€™s a nice contrast to Sherlockā€™s lightly toasted color, so you could say he got ā€œburntā€. Mycroft usually wears gloves, both because he dislikes touching things directly and because he has a tendency to be dishonest (a classic character design trope - though itā€™s probably less obvious in a game where almost every character of the upper social classes will wear gloves due to the setting). Mycroft predominantly wears green (next to yellow on the color wheel). Despite his avoidant and anxious behaviours, he has a sharp tongue, and rarely addresses people by their proper title. For someone who wants to avoid trouble, he doesnā€™t try really hard to fit in due to being a contrarian in that aspect... heā€™s a genius, but heā€™s an idiot too (lol).
Sherlock: The most important thing is that heā€™s recognizable without being dressed identically to his adult self, because he hasnā€™t come into his own yet (and it would just make no sense). Heā€™s wearing rather nice clothes since the Holmes family belongs to the gentry class, but my friend suggested that his clothes would be dirty often since heā€™s crawling around trying to ā€œsolve casesā€ all the time, and I really love that idea. His mother is probably despairing about it. Sherlock takes himself very seriously at this age, but of course he says ridiculous things all the time.
Father (unnamed): I wanted the brothers to have a point of reference or inspiration for their creativity with inventions and general resourcefulness, so heā€™s a toymaker who specializes in automata. Mycroft learned from him for some time until he eventually surpassed him due to his inherent genius, but Sherlock lost interest quickly despite also showing talent. Their father is a friendly man whose work usually keeps busy, and heā€™s on good terms with his wife. Iā€™m undecided on whether the toy shop should be connected to their house or not.
Mother (unnamed): I really wanted her to look like her youngest son without being an exact replica of him, with a simple and uncomplicated design. Sheā€™s a housewife with no other occupation officially, but sheā€™s adept at sewing and often takes on requests from friends and neighbours. She also makes clothes for her husbandā€™s creations, as well as for her children. Will dress up Mycroft and Sherlock in dresses on occasion, sometimes to get back at them for causing trouble and sometimes just to try out designs. Sherlock doesnā€™t mind it, and neither does Mycroft though heā€™s annoyed at the ā€œpunishmentā€ since itā€™s usually his brother who ropes him into trouble. Their mother is constantly fatigued by their antics, so I feel a little bad for her (their father is more easygoing, so he doesnā€™t get as stressed out by their sons). Her relationship with her oldest son was complicated for some time due to his tendency to withdraw from the world, but her youngest helped her understand that his brother does love her in his own ways.
Van Zieks
I tried my best to incorporate angel motifs in their design to reflect Barokā€™s ā€œfallen angelā€ motif later in life, hence why his and Klintā€™s father has white hair for example. The feather lace on their motherā€™s sleeves was a last minute addition; I think Iā€™ll revisit their designs again soon. Klint wears his hair the same as he does as an adult to keep him recognizable, but I think itā€™d be funny if when he was very young it was parted on the side and he hated it or something.
Claes: Their fatherā€™s name. Itā€™s Dutch and pronounced ā€œKlausā€, but I keep pronouncing it wrong (a little bit on purpose because I like the sound of it spelled out). He has a constant poker face, but heā€™s actually the most affectionate parent in this entire lineup..! Heā€™s meant to be smiling in the drawing, but a stranger wouldnā€™t be able to tell. I love characters whose personality subverts our expectations weā€™d usually have based on their appearance, so he looks and acts very seriously but would rather spend time at home with his family and hates going to work (lol). Also fond of cute, small, and typically ā€œfeminineā€ things, but he keeps that part of him a secret since itā€™d be frowned upon for a man in this era, especially within the upper class which is all about appearance (his wife is aware of it, though). Maybe thatā€™s why he dotes on his kids so much? Heā€™s very corny as well and has plenty of nicknames for his wife and children, which Klint hated at this age. I also wanted Claes to be the same height as Stronghart, with an imposing build and expression, so that the next authority figure in the brothersā€™ lives following his death would ā€œfillā€ the gap he left. But that didnā€™t end so well, did it...
Evana: Their motherā€™s name. Similarly to Claes, her personality is meant to subvert her elegant appearance. Sheā€™s a complete airhead and once got lost in her own house. Evana is nonetheless stricter than her husband towards her children and puts a lot of emphasis on what is or isnā€™t proper. Sheā€™s in tune with trends and gossip as is expected of a lady in her position, and might come across as superficial to some, but she is very loving. When young Lady Baskerville would visit, she and her future mother-in-law would get along tremendously well (to Klintā€™s annoyance as he also wanted to spend time with his fiancee but couldnā€™t relate to most of their conversations). Evana had the most religious faith among the van Zieks, and would encourage virtue, integrity, and nobility of character above all else in her children.
Barok and Klint: Two well-behaved, beloved children. Barok is of course the little darling after all; I think Klint was probably the more rebellious one but became very serious after their parentsā€™ death with all the responsibilities now on his shoulders. That was probably a very lonely period for Barok, until his brother cheered up again.
Baskerville
Primrose (Lady Baskerville): In flower language, her name means ā€œI canā€™t live without youā€. I didn't know this at the time I named her, but it fits the story very well, so thank you to my friend who taught me this! Primroseā€™s outlook is very unconventional for the era and especially at her young age, but sheā€™s grown disillusioned with her lot in life as well as men following her motherā€™s death. I wanted her to be the only one in the family to be a redhead to reflect how sheā€™s not fitting the mould with her assertive and brash personality, and how she feels "out of place". Her father dresses her in very impractical, often white dresses to assert his control over her as a form of ā€œloveā€; to thwart her tendency to sneak out of the house without permission and participate in unladylike activities.
Her and Klint become codependent on each other following his own parentsā€™ passing and promise to marry each other even though Lord Baskerville is set on finding his daughter a suitor with a more stable future.
The woman is her stepmother, and the others are her father and her half-brother. Since Iā€™m working on a project involving all of them, I donā€™t want to reveal too much about them yet. All I can say is that itā€™s not a happy home, and no one in particularly close to each other (except the twins, maybe)...
Asogi
Genshin: I imagined he used to be short and got his growth spurt late (shown at around 12 years old here). Genshin looks a lot like Kazuma due to his eyes and nose, but thankfully he has a distinctive hairstyle already. I'd like to think he grows out his hair at around fifteen. The scarf's pattern is meant to evoke snake scales! Sorry for how lazily I drew Karuma here, haha. As for his personality, he has a poker face but I like to think he can be quite mischievous, though not towards his immediate family as the repercussions would be non-negligible. His brother in law, Hiroki, however, is the perfect person to prank since he's both kind and naive. I also imagine it's tradition for every (male) Asogi to dedicate their life to training, though heā€™d have a bamboo sword instead of Karuma at this age, probably... I wonder how Genshin discovered the hilt trick? If he was a kid or teenager, maybe he hid snacks inside (lol).
Miwa: Genshinā€™s older sister. She wears menā€™s clothes most of the time. Being their fatherā€™s legitimate child, she was going to inherit the clan despite being a woman until Genshin showed up. With Genshin having the ā€œluckā€ to resemble his father, as well as being male, their father decided to make him the heir instead. Miwa resents Genshin for taking this chance from her, despite knowing deep down that he is not personally at fault. Still, she is outwardly bitter and dismissive of him, and spites his efforts to become closer to his sister. Miwa is both vain and arrogant while also following a rigid moral code. She distrusts men, most likely due to her fatherā€™s treatment, but she also respects her father greatly as a warrior. Miwa displays surprising gentleness towards children and women, namely Genshinā€™s girlfriend and later wife Yukari. Her abrasive personality mellows out when she becomes a mother herself, but she was unable to repair her relationship with her brother before his death. Since thatā€™s very sad, in modern AUs I like to depict them on better terms.
Hiroki: Miwaā€™s husband through arranged marriage. Hails from a family of performers; his specialty is traditional dance but heā€™s skilled in rakugo as well. I wanted a character with a sensitive side, who is in touch with his emotions, to contrast the serious and tense atmosphere of the Asogi clan. Thanks to that side of him, Hiroki gets along well with Yukari who has a similar easygoing and ā€œrefreshingā€ personality. However, Hirokiā€™s sensitivity creates problems since Miwa is confused by a man exhibiting such behaviours (heā€™s the type to be moved by beautiful scenery and cry over small animals). Hiroki believes everyone can do good and that most people act from goodness, but for this reason heā€™s easily tricked- namely by Genshin. Despite amusing himself at his expense (since Genshin is quite clever), Genshin enjoys Hirokiā€™s company since heā€™s a very mellow person and doesnā€™t bring up dreadful topics like inheritance and power and such. Hiroki is surprisingly well-built under his clothes, and his weapon of choice is a naginata. I guess Syoma wanted his son-in-law to be strong..?
Syoma: The central figure in the Asogi household. Still alive during the events of TGAA. A very serious man who accords a lot of importance to honor and tradition to the point itā€™s stifling. Distant from his children, though Miwa claims Genshin is the favorite. The kind of father to make his children compete to ā€œmake them growā€, even though one of them is almost an adult and the other is barely a teenager. Although Genshin was conceived after his late wifeā€™s passing, Syoma sees Genshin as a reminder of his dishonourable actions (mainly due to Genshinā€™s mother being a prostitute), and thus avoids him despite placing the onus of inheritance upon him. All of that results in a house Genshin doesnā€™t want to stay in- and contributes to his reasons to go study abroad. In his own twisted way, Syoma loves his children, but he was never meant to be a father, or at least does not know how to parent without a wifeā€™s help (tradition and patriarchy is very much a theme for the whole clan lol). I honestly struggle to write him because the things he says can be very hurtful, especially towards his daughter-in-law. His character is a lot more comedic/nicer in modern AU (think pseudo yakuza with mother hen personality), but so is everyoneā€™s. (itā€™s very sitcom-like, haha)
Thanks for reading if you made it this far!! This post could be even longer but I decided to spare everyonešŸ’— have a bonus papazieks and children doodle for your timešŸ‘¼šŸ’—

Also randomly Iā€™ve been seeing some things about how since the real Sherlock Holmes has a brother called Mycroft, he should also show up in Great Ace Attorney
Personally Iā€™d like that if he did show up, he also should have a slightly different name, like how Herlock Sholmes does (I mean at least in the English translation). Call him Bycroft or something

A little under three days left!
I have no idea if this poll will have as much widespread appeal as some of the others, but this idea popped into my head and felt like a fun one to me, so...
Now you can take this whatever direction you'd like: who you realistically think you're the closest match to, or pure wish fulfillment who'd you most enjoy being. I'd love to see people's reasonings for their choices in the comments and tags. x3 Please reblog for a larger sample size!
In my case, I'd love to think I'm the Watson as a loyal friend, but I'm far too squeamish to be helpful with most medical needs besides basic first aid, and I would NOT be any help in a fight, I'm running in the other direction and yanking Sherly with me the second there's gunshots, bye. I think I'm mostly likely Mrs. Hudson--responsible, own a home, love Sherly and Watson despite their faults, still deeply loyal and tough in my own way even if I'm not in the thick of the danger, a bit of a homebody probably and good at whipping up some tea/food.
With all that said, interpret these roles any way you want! That will be a big part of the fun for this one, seeing how people decide and back up their picks. :)

People should draw their interpretations of ACD holmes characters in DGS. Please. Mycroft Sholmes please.
One off characters too. I want to see them please please please.
Anyway I think DGS!Mycroft and Herlock would have their own dance of deduction because I remember a scene in his intro story where they're both deducing things about the same guy together. I should reread it though
