#not going to tag soj

[probablygayattorneys]

Like most adults, I have a limited amount of time to play video games. Other things must be done. And this is causing a problem, because I recently started playing a new game on my Switch, and I’m finding that I don’t want to play SoJ, which is, quite frankly, a shitty game, and instead I want to play the switch port of OneShot, a game I love so much I have a framed poster in my room and has been such a joyful experience. But OneShot isn’t part of a series I’m going for completion on.

Profiles for the- at least most relevant characters for the copycat au! (minus apollo since he's the pov for this hfjgkhl)

(close up of the mugshots under the cut)

[gasstationclown]

oh hey its. its more ace attorney. red is for apollo justice, green is for dual destinies, and dark blue is for spirit of justice but after that its just kind of a general thing. as ive done before, theres a comment for SOME of them under the cut (i limited myself :) but also theyre like. self explanatory mostly)

#7 i was so fucking shocked (ha) when it was revealed that fulbright put shock shackles on blackquill. shouldve knew smth was up fr. but they are worsties

#8 i love thinking of athena squeezing between phoenix and apollo in the last (i think) case instead of just going on the end. she wants to be in the middle !!!!

#9 at the penrose theater in the background theres this guy walking their dog and its so fucking rotund and i just love it so much. i love that dog.

#11 & #13 sahdmadhi loves twos things in life.... burgers and peaches. i get it

#15 i drew ema ONCE and it was like 4 years ago and it was a little tiny version and she was younger so i felt like i needed to draw ema. here is ema. shell be back im sure

#16 i sometimes think about the relationship between phoenix and klavier. i think that has to be real awkward. i think they try not to talk to each other and avert their eyes when they see each other

#17 its kinda small but phoenix is saying "ive been working on some dad jokes-" and i just think phoenix would pull out a whole document/binder full of them at Dinner With Kristoph and start reading them all out

#18 this is the most suggestive thing ill post and its a "the beanie stays on during sex" joke

thats it thats the post

[dirtbra1n]

do you guys ever think about the borginian bullshit that would take place in aa4 in the shittier world where Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney was actually genetically related to dd and soj. like can you fucking imagine

[fettery-fetterie]

The Chromatic Turnabout (or rather a very poorly doodle of it) 

[lillybean730]

oh finally finished case 1 last night... why was there so much fluff... was padding out the tutorial really necessary? i guess some people must have complained about them being too short or simple but come on. i don't need to be reminded of the defense culpability act every five minutes, and yes i remember what ahlbi said you don't need 4 flashbacks to it. it's like the game doesn't trust the player to remember anything at all

Narumitsu/Wrightworth Fic Recs! (Part 1, Multi Chapter)

I'm finally cleaning out my tabs and sorting through all the fanfics I've read so I thought tumblr would be the best place to keep my favorite fics :)

This post will contain only multi-chapter fics, completed fics will be listed first and then uncompleted ones. Assume it's a wrightworth fic unless I specify otherwise. I will also be subjecting you all to the way I tag/organize the fanfics I read. I'll try to keep spoilers out of my tags, but if you want to go in blind just click the link.

I will tag the author if I know their tumblr <3

Anyways, Enjoy!!

[ot3]

ive been so scared to go nto the ace attorney tag ever since the 456 port dropped im not ready to see that much dual destinies and soj content even at the potential gain of seeing a bunch of new aa4posting

[blueskittlesart]

MANNNN i have been a dgs fan since pre-localization and like. i kind of own a physical copy of it and yet i have not played it still just bc some of the differences no matter how small are just so. head in hands. dgs sherlock is the only sherlock adaptation that matters to me and therefore i am so confused when people Actually call him herlock sholmes in the fandom. the worst name localization choices though were absolutely the witnesses from cases 1-1 and 2-1 though with the whole “japanese sounding english puns” like ERGH. who the fuck is “rei membami” that’s murasame haori!!!! (this is also an issue with soj/aa6 but like the issues with racism in that game go even deeper than just the localization so)

It's a real genuine tragedy to me that the scarlet study patch was never finished because if it was then it would be so easy to definitively say that it's the best way to play the games. I have about a million gripes with the localization, most of which are summed up above (playing the first few cases in the japanese courtroom becomes physically painful at times especially as someone who UNDERSTOOD THE ORIGINAL JAPANESE PUNS) but even from just a gameplay standpoint i think a lot was lost by porting those games to the switch. the models were very obviously not meant to be viewed at such high resolution and it makes the 3d cutscenes in game 2 that were BREATHTAKING on the 3ds look cheap and ugly, not to mention the fact that it's one of the few games i've ever played that actually meaningfully integrated the 3d screen into its storyline. (if you have the means, playing case 1-5 on the 3ds is the absolute best way to experience it imo, because the stereoscope plot points were designed specifically with the 3d screen in mind. it makes that whole piece of the case a lot more fun to play.) But they just. never finished game 2. so it's impossible to play the whole story in english without the port. I don't know if anyone who worked on the scarlet study patch is still out there but if you are please god come back. people are tagging my art 'iris wilson.' we need you now more than ever

Glowing in shades of green, an ace attorney fanfic by yours truly!

Rating: Mature

Summary: After spending more time together both Phoenix and Miles began to fall in love. At least, that's what Miles assumed before the magatama activated.

If you're interested in reading it, you can find it here. Please make sure to read all the tags before reading the fic!

(More info about fic and drawing I did for it under the cut)

This fic is inspired by some aa hc's I developed after playing the DLC case for SOJ (as well as a few that came to me as played the mainline games) and at first considered not posting it like a couple other fics I've written and currently abandoned, but than I got a beta reader (who has chosen to stay anonymous but I'll thank the beta reader again here, you know who you are :D) and after it was done being beta read drew art of my favourite scene to write a few days ago (it was also the beta readers favourite scene, how fun!).

Fun fact, I was originally going to draw this digitally and almost finished the digital version but I HATED IT and found myself avoid finishing it by doing traditional art instead, leading to me realising I should just draw it again traditionally and I'm glad I did! Only thing I dislike is that the library scanner isn't the best quality so even after editing the pic it still doesn't look the best but hopefully you all enjoy it as well as the fanfic!

Reading reviews for the Apollo Justice trilogy have got me feeling like I’m in the emperor’s new clothes fable.

[beauzos]

love going into the yuta tag and seeing people hating on him and saying he’s boring. he’s boring to YOU. i can see he’s actually the most interesting character in SOJ though

YEAH YEAH YEAH 2, 16, 17, 18

and 20 ! i like asking 20 (asks aren't open on your ace attorney sideblog btw)

(Oops maybe side blogs can't accept asks? Oh well I'll just have to answer them on my main blog instead of my ace attorney side blog then :P)

2: a headcanon you weren't sure about at first but have come to like!

Before playing aa4 and aa5 I wasn't sure about hcing Apollo as a trans male and Athena as a woman and austic. But once I finished both characters intro games I've come to adopt these hc's myself as I can see both of them socially transitioning as kids. Plus Athena having super sensitive ears and struggling more with that as a kid is very relatable as that's an austic trait I have (unfortunately it doesn't allow me to hear peoples emotions and just means I can't cope with vaccum cleaners and hand dryers (TT O TT)) so her backstory definitely led me to hc her as austic lol.

16: a tiny detail in canon that you want more people to appreciate

I think the visual choices for sure. From both Miles and Franziska mimicking Menfred in both design and sprite animations (with Miles doing it more as a rookie and Franziska doing it even more than Rookie Miles), to small details like Phoenix having slightly shorter hair in aa3's flashback case (which I don't think enough people notice and often draw "Feenie" with same hair length, probably because it's that length in every other design, including child design), Ema's adult outfit having references to highschool uniform even in SOJ but doesn't straight up look like a highschool uniform thank goodness, Klavier looking more like his brother at 24 than at 17, and the list can go on and on and on!

17: the thing in canon that everyone loves and that you also love

I think I've seen enough people talk about how much they love this for it to count as an answer :3. The diversity of relationships. I'm all for romantic and/or sexual ships (I am a mulishipper lol) but, I do appreciate that in canon we have so many positive and friendly relationships between siblings, co-workers and friends with no hint of needing to "take things further" because they don't need to! Even with huge age gaps, characters can and will get along as friends! Which in society is seen as strange (at least it's seemed that way to me growing up. I remember in primary school I once got in trouble for having a friend that was "too young" & was told I was weird as a teen for getting along with adults??? So strange).

An example of a fun interaction between characters imo is in case 5-3 is when Athena is talking to Phoenix early on the case (I think before the body was found, can't quite remember sorry) because he clearly see's her as both his young employee, but also as a friend, and Athena both looks up to him, and is also able to joke/jabs about him, like saying she thinks he probably looked scary in college XD

18: a fandom tag that you track

I don't follow tags, I've looked at a few tags and honestly don't enjoy using Tumblr like that. Much prefer to look at the for you and following tabs instead of going there the popular posts in a tag :P

20: your very first fandom!

So even though I've casually observed fandom spaces since I was 12 I never engaged in fandom spaces until my late teens. It's hard to pin point which was my first fandom since my early fandom experiences consisted of jointing a bunch of Facebook groups (which wasn't really fun as only one group didn't have consistent drama and infighting) but I think it's a tie between the Gorillaz fandom (as in the band, been a long time since I've listened to them lol) and The Sims fandom (which I'm still kinda apart of, Sim fans are definitely more chill on Tumblr, but I mostly stick with Sims 2 side of fandom).

thank you for sending this ask ✧⁠◝⁠(⁠⁰⁠▿⁠⁰⁠)⁠◜⁠✧ it was a lot of fun answering all the questions

Fandom asks post can be found here!

pulse, pulse, shush [nrmt secret santa!]

name: pulse, pulse, shush fandom: Ace Attorney | Gyakuten Saiban pairing: Mitsurugi Reiji | Miles Edgeworth/Naruhodou Ryuuichi | Phoenix Wright wordcount/chapters: 1/1, 4k additional tags: phoenix gets shot in the ass, Love Confession, Hurt/Comfort, once again Very Literally hurt comfort bc it’s my brand apparently, warning for a literal gunshot wound though one not taken particularly seriously by the narrative, nebulously set in the DD/SOJ era somewhere, Oblivious Edgeworth until he isn’t, miles has an attack of the tisms but he gets better, this was meant to be at least mostly lighthearted and then they got really romantic on me whoops, ghost trick truthers will also recognise something mentioned in this

summary:

And oh, yeah. He kinda got shot. The warmth that had dusted up his skin from the brusque yank of Edgeworth’s fingers turns at once to prickly awareness. Honestly he hasn’t really noticed until now, because everything else has sort of been a lot in the intervening twenty seconds, but now that he looks down at it, it starts to hurt. “Ow,” he says, like an afterthought. Out of the corner of his eye he can see Edgeworth’s face go that particularly terrifying shade of strained purple he knows very well, so he doesn’t look, just investigates as the pain flares into true, hot agony for the first time. And yeah, ow. There’s a little round hole punched into him just under his belt line, on the outside of his thigh where he can just barely see it without twisting around - which makes it not quite his thigh, sort of, but definitely still his leg, unless it’s too high up… Okay, it’s his ass. He got shot in the ass.

Phoenix and Miles investigate together. It goes well (?)

Read it now on Ao3!

[byooregard]

would love to hear your thoughts on these characters:

hobie brown

miles (both aa and spiderverse i adore them both)

phoenix

maya

apollo

klavier

also do you have a list of the fandoms you're into? would love to send more for others we have in common

cracks my knuckles ok let's go.

tbh I don't have big thoughts on AA characters because they're too removed from the real world for me to impose real world context on them like I couldn't tell you if homophobia exists in japanifornia. some sort of Schrodinger's societal expectations exist there. you can be discriminated against for being a lawyer

anyways miles Edgeworth is gay it's the least interesting thing about him. you'd think he'd have a lot of issues about it but I think he's chill and normal. he's got a little pride flag in a cup on his desk

miles morales is like... as bi as any guy living in the world is? like he's got the potential but he's also not there yet. if he spends enough time in the spider verse with hobie and friends he'll definetly figure it out but atm he's like well all guys have seen a guy and thought they were hot right

hobie brown is too cool to have labels but he's got the gender the sexuality the whole acronym

uhh phoenix was told he was gay long before he figured it out because he's an art kid who cries a lot

I have no thoughts on Maya. she's not cishet

Apollo is gay and trans and very comfortable in it he does to gay bars he's very well adjusted

klavier... I don't have thoughts about klavier. he's a rock star

oh also fandoms. off the top of my head I'm into x men right now then there's doctor who the grishaverse all aa games cept investigations and soj persona five persona 2 innocent sin bat family uhhh there's surely other things that are on here if you look thru my most tagged I can't think
