You know, the AAI2 fandom’s insistence on referring to the characters by their fan localized names we’ve had for like a decade instead of the ones we received this week is really funny. It almost reminds me of something…
God damn it.
#ace attorney#aai#aai2#aa investigations#aai collection#ace attorney series#ace attorney shitpost#ace attorney posting#ace attorney investigations#yumihiko ichiyanagi#sebastian debeste#eustace winner#courage the cowardly dog#raymond shields#eddie fender#justine courtney#verity gavelle#real talk: the name Eustace is kind of growing on me. it has the even more pathetic energy than both Yumihiko/Sebastian.#still prefer the fan names though.#that and since I’m a microbiology major I know that ‘eu-‘ as a prefix in biology usually means ‘true’ so it connects to Verity/Justine#and I think that’s kinda cute :)#winner however can go burn.#Eustace will never replace Sebastian I am simply adding it to my list of names to refer to the kid.#<- a list which so far includes: 4kids Akechi. Laywer Iruma-kun. Fluffy Little Bastard. Tall Child. Disconnected Tellytubby. Herr Fluffy.#and now Eustace and Stacey have been added to the mix.#what are some others please add.

May we have your goth music recs please queen of the night?
I dont know if this is sarcastic but I'm gonna act like ur serious 😌
Obviously this isn't gonna be all encompassing and it's gonna be my personal musical opinion and I encourage you to form your own and also I'm mostly gonna rec you stuff I like teehee
If you want some ~trad goth~ Bauhaus, The Sisters of Mercy,Fields of the Nephilim, Clan of Xymox
People you've probably heard of: The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Depeche Mode, Marilyn Manson, Joy Division
Ministry I really like their first album but they turned more industrial if you're into that and I can't mention industrial without at least name dropping Skinny Puppy
Gothic rock HIM, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Christian Death (be warned their entire thing was shock value so n-word bomb right at the beginning of one of their more well known songs)
Personally what I like to call vampire club music so like Sextile and Boy Harsher
And then dark wave, cold wave, soviet wave stuff like Molchat Doma, Ploho, Lebanon Hanover, Cold Cave, She Past Away
And anyone else I feel falls under this giant umbrella but im too lazy to categorize them: Pink Turns Blue, Sad Lovers & Giants, Paralisis Permanente, Lust Era, This Cold Night, Dancing Plague, Forever Grey, Killing Joke etc etc etc
#PERSONALLY i dont like christian death OR marilyn manson but i feel they must be included on a goth artist list because of the influence#they've had on other artists#whole lotta prefix wave huh#long post teehee sorry got carried away

Crazy that like half of intracommunity trans discourse is just people reinventing the gender binary under a new name and then applying essentialism logic to like, language and definitions. Whatever you think I could possibly be refering to you are correct.
#im going to invent a word to describe how other people perceive us and then police who can or cannot claim that experience#based completely off of vibes and whatever pronouns some stranger might have listed in their bio#because everyone knows that transphobes in particular take great care to target only the correct people#''actually this latin prefix specifically means-'' ssshhhh ''this word implies the existance of-'' we don't have to do this#you can just say what you mean why are we trying to make and define new categories of people everytime someone is shitty to us#i mean hell you don't even have to take more than 1 step back to see how it's all connected and we're all victims#one of the biggest trans controversies of this year involved exactly 0 trans people

while we’re talking oc names, what do you think of “pounce” as a suffix? i’ve had an oc story rattling around in my brain for like a year but i still can’t decide if my protagonist is named gravelheart or gravelpounce
The only reason I don't like -pounce is because I prefer the word -prowl arbitrarily. It's so sneaky. It feels round in my mouth, I love that word.
But I don't see why not? Use -Prowl, -Pounce, -Spring, and -Leap as suffixes for good hunters and you're goodle noodles.
#Warrior names#I'm just starting to realize that maybe by 'Bones do you have a prefix and suffix list'--#They were ASKING me to make one for their use#Like I didn't recognize that as a request#Maybe I should cobble one together#Since a lot of folks ask about clan culture expansion suffixes

still think the coolest thing gallifrey does is the concepts that are like. medical thing + word thing. like elective semantectomy and abridgement syndrome. theres another one i think but i forgot. thats the absolute coolest thing. history = biology. they write themselves into it
#trying to up my technobabble game by going through medical suf and prefixes lists#and see if i can match that with other concepts like this#ive been doing some fun things with philosophy lately i think but i wanna branch out

the job application I'm filling out is Changelingphobic :(
#let the record show that i was doing an experiment to see if they let you write in a prefix#i wouldn't have actually submitted a job application and been like 'pls address me as Founder' lol#i probably would've erased it and wrote in Mx. or smth but for the experiment i wanted to get silly with it#there were no gender neutral prefixes in the dropdown list so i wanted to see if you could add them manually#you can't

alright campers!
it's allegiances time !!
i may or may not have. gone a bit overboard on the amount of NPCs :,) . just know that all of the main characters will have their canon PJSK name next to them!
as i post more info about the characters, i'll link some relevant posts next to their name! think of it like a masterlist of sorts :D please god ask me about random npcs before i force facts abt them upon you
i've padded long enough, though: here's the list! (some things are subject to change)
LAST UPDATED 12/22/23 ( ;) )
#warriors au#pjsk#project sekai#pjsk au#yes i know toya canonically has brothers. no they are not here. they arent on the NPC list on the wiki therefore they do not exist /hj#im not tagging all the characters#also please ignore that a third of the MCs are in windclan. i am very bad at planning ahead. /lh#originally i wanted a rule of only one cat having a certain prefix but i. gave up

My journey for looking up Na'vi adpositions today (W= general wikipedia page, N= Na'vi wikibook):

I learned more about language in 3 hours than any amount of time in school. Irayo ma Wikipedia 💀.
#all because I was trying to find the morpheme for 'ni' in a word i was breaking down#because I couldnt find it as an adposition like 'ne' and it wasnt listed as a suffix or prefix#na'vi#linguistics#lì'fya lena'vi#oel.mine

just called a reblog a "little rebloskerdoodle" and tbh that perfectly illustrates how TERRIBLY i enjoy butchering the english language for sport
#other things i like doing include#adding “a rooney” to anything#or “ska rooney”#separating compound words and adding “to the” or “of the” in the middle#ex. bath of the room#(tho there was a point in time i referred to the bathroom as the “bat-to-ta-troom” which is just...yeah...)#using text acronyms outloud#ive been saying rn and rq outloud a LOT lately#additionally with acronyms i like adding “to the” between each letter#ex. B to the R to the B#dropping the last sound or first sound#unnecessarily shortening words goes along w this#i also like adding the y sound to the end of words if i drop the last sound#also doing that thing robin yj does where u drop prefixes and suffixes to change the meaning of a word#listing all of these in a row makes me sound like i barely speak english#i swear it's my first language

A Round Door Like a Porthole, Lazarus Green Pt. 1 (you're here) Pt. 2 Pt. 3 Pt. 4
Wayne Enterprises didn’t really need a small business specializing in “ecto-weapons” invented by self-purported ghost hunters, but S.T.A.R. Labs tipped Lucius Fox off that Lex Luthor was trying to buy an obscure little company in Illinois, and thwarting Luthor was always worthwhile. Now Tim just had to figure out what to do with all the equipment and the concerningly large arsenal of guns and things that looked like normal household items but seemed to have other, horrific purposes. He would have laughed at the way they slapped “Fenton” in front of every invention name (do ghost hunters really need a Fenton thermos? Won’t a normal thermos keep their coffee hot just as well? Are ghosts like trout, to be caught with a Fenton Ghost Fisher which just looks like a normal fishing rod but glow-in-the-dark. And what the fuck even is a Fenton Peeler!?), but he thought with some chagrin about the batarangs, batmobile, and everything else that had “bat” as a prefix in the batcave.
However, of all the things Tim hadn’t expected to find when he flew out to do an inventory of assets after they bought the business sight-unseen, a portal generating a Lazarus Pit in gaseous form was probably at the top of his list. He didn’t even know that Lazarus water could change states from a liquid to a gas like that. Maybe there actually was something to the whole ghost thing. He supposed that it made sense for ghosts to exist, after all Deadman was part of Justice League Dark. Speaking of. . . he should see if Bruce could call in someone from JLD to assess things. He was feeling decidedly out of his depth.
John Constantine did not like to consult for mega corporations like Wayne Enterprises, but Batman had specifically requested he go check something out and he figured, where's the harm?
There.
There’s the harm.
It turned out the “thing” he’d been called in to look at is a machine that can tear open a stable portal into the Infinite Realms. That is not something that should be possible. That is not something technology should be capable of achieving. That is definitely not something that should exist. Bloody hell, what had the Bats roped him into!?
This really should have been Zatana’s job. Or Deadman’s. Hell, Raven or Secret would be preferable. Because John would prefer not to be dealing with this. In fact, he would prefer to be back in literal Hell than deal with the crazy shit in the Infinite Realms. Could John handle demons, archangels, and even gods? Yeah. He can bind or exorcize most supernatural threats. Does that mean he relishes the idea of going toe to toe with heavy hitters from the Infinite Realms? Absolutely not.
Some beings who lived there were just little blob ghosts made from ectoplasm and emotion. Some were the restless undead who could not or would not cross over to their afterlives. And some were the embodiments of concepts like nature, destructive weather, and dreams. He wasn’t sure where Death fit into the Realms, whether she ruled or visited, or if it was actually just an extension of her, but he didn’t really want to find out. There were many things John could defeat. Death wasn’t one of them. And now he was looking at a portal into a realm where the living were not meant to be.
Danny hadn’t returned to Fenton Works since graduating high school. It turned out that he was less anxious when he was not living with people who fantasized about “tearing him apart molecule by molecule” and thought that discussing their plans to dissect him (although he maintained that it would be a vivisection since he’s only half dead) made for fascinating dinner conversation. Who would have thought that his constant stress, anxiety, and insomnia were caused by environmental factors? He’d been unpacking things with a very nice therapist his sister helped him find, and seen great improvements in his mental health. It really helped that she was dead too, and unlike Spectra she didn’t feed off the misery of her patients.
Danny hadn’t intended to ever return to Fenton Works, but when Jazz told him that Jack and Maddie sold their life's work to Wayne Enterprises and a multibillionaire playboy was about to have unfettered access to the Ghost Zone, he was. . . concerned. To say the least. And that was why he was in the middle of doing some light sabotage when Tim Drake-Wayne and a guy in a trenchcoat who reeked of cigarette smoke entered the basement lab. It’s why he was hiding under the Specter Speeder removing the ecto-engine, and there to overhear the conversation that followed.
“So, am I right in thinking that’s a Lazarus Pit?” Tim asked Constantine.
The older man stared at the portal, then at Tim, then at the portal for an uncomfortably long time. Then he pulled out a flask and drained half its contents before saying, “Yes and no. That is basically the same substance as the pits, but I think that this does something else entirely. It seems like this machine basically functions as a summoning circle, but instead of pulling one entity from one side to the other, this is just an open doorway that is perpetually pulling in anything or anyone who gets within its sphere of influence.”
“That doesn’t sound like a good thing, John.”
“It’s really not,”
“So what does that mean, is it like a blown hatch in space causing rapid depressurization?” Tim felt a little ill at the thought. “What is it even pulling into our world?”
“No, no. Nothing so dramatic as that. It’s more like, hm, so the way summoning circles work is they invite or compel a specific entity to manifest, by basically making a one-way magical portal for them. This portal is kinda like an invitational summoning, which entices, but doesn’t force anyone to enter. Usually a summoning will have a purpose though, and the being you summon will be offered a deal. If this is doing what I think it is and pulling citizens of the Infinite Realms through and leaving them on this side without a contract or direction, they’re probably getting pretty frustrated and causing havoc. It’s like offering someone a job in another country so they have to get a visa and uproot everything, only to get off the plane and find an empty office, no housing, and no paycheck.” John lit up a cigarette and took a drag.
Tim wrinkled his nose, but knew from long experience that it wasn’t worth it to argue about American tobacco restrictions in the workplace with Constantine, especially while the man was doing him a favor. Also, the man looked like he really needed either a cigarette or another drink, and he’d prefer second hand smoke to a drunk sorcerer. “So then why hasn’t this town been overrun by these beings from the Infinite Realms?”
“Good question kid, but what I really want to know is how is this portal staying open? Really, how was it opened in the first place is the most pressing issue.” John mused.
Tim had already located the blueprints for the portal while waiting for Constantine, but either the Fentons had intentionally falsified the documents to seem plausible just long enough to make off with the money, or he just didn’t understand enough of the interaction between physics and the occult to comprehend how the portal could possibly function.
He flipped back through the blueprints while the blond man sat cross legged in front of the swirling green portal and his low, distracted mutterings took on the cadence of a chant. The curl of smoke from his lit cigarette unfurled into some kind of spell array, and began to glow. Huh, maybe Tim shouldn't be too quick to judge him for tobacco misuse. Tim triple checked the flat file for any more information about the portal, and came up empty handed.
John, meanwhile, kept chanting as the magical array grew and spread to encompass the entire entrance to the portal. At last he stopped speaking and stood up, stepping back to double check his work. “Alright, Drake. You might wanna close your eyes for this one. It’s gonna be bright,” he said, popping his cigarette back between his lips. Then he stepped forward and blew a mouthful of smoke on the center of the array. The smoke caught against the softly glowing lines, pushing them until they floated back and collided with the nebulous green swirls and, despite Tim closing his eyes, flashed so incandescently white he could see them through his eyelids.
“OW! Fuck!!” John clutched his face, pressing the heels of his hands to his eyes. “I’m doubling my consulting fee,” he grumbled under his breath.
“You alright?” Tim asked, blinking spots out of his vision.
“Yeah, yeah. Just give me a sec.” He too was blinking now. “That was not supposed to be so bright.”
“I’m assuming it worked though.”
“It had bloody well better ’ave worked.” The older man squinted at the slightly dimmer lines which still shone painfully bright against the green. “Oh. Yeah, that worked. Fuck. . .”
“What?” Tim looked on in alarm as Constantine pressed a hand over his mouth.
“Oh man. What wanker did you say created this portal?”
“Presumably Drs. Madeline and Jack Fenton. Why?” He drew the last syllable out skeptically.
“Because, they opened this portal with a child sacrifice, and bound his death and all the lost life potential to their bloody machine to create a perpetual gateway to the Infinite Realms.”

maplelibras-pkmn -> glacialmaples-pkmn
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm probably gonna change my username a few times, just to get a feel of what direction I want to go in before settling on something more permanent.
I'm hoping I'll be able to at least slip in a reference (even if only I understand it) to my current username, but I'm not having much luck. so hopefully I'll be able to settle on something I love soon!!!
#maple crunches#I have a whole list of words I could add as a prefix or suffix#but they're not sounding as good as glacialmaple is rn#if I replace 'glacial' with other words and then add a prefix or suffix it sounds great#but idk I'm really liking glacialmaple#I'll see how I feel abt it when I wake up
