Presumed Innocent Episode 8 - The Verdict Review *Spoilers* The season finale of #PresumedInnocent manages to both honor the original book/film ending and create its own lane to perfectly stick the landing.  Bravo. #TVTime #PresumedInnocentSpoilers

[icedteaandoldlace]

The funny thing about Presumed Innocent is,

if it had been an episode of Murder She Wrote, I would've clocked the wife as the killer IMMEDIATELY. But because of the type of movie that it is and because there's so much corruption being uncovered all throughout the film, I was expecting the outcome of the case to be much bigger and more convoluted. You're expecting there to be a big moment where all the dots finally connect and everything fits together in a big tangled web, and instead it's just a bunch of awful people being awful in their own ways, and the killer isn't mixed up in any of their nonsense, she's just a jealous wife who went way off the deep end, and she gets away with it because everyone's so hellbent on convicting a killer fast for political reasons,—and on covering their own asses—that no one even thinks to look into the partners of any of the men the victim was sleeping with.

shoutout to jake gyllenhaal getting choked and loving it

[watatsumiis]

[muninnhuginn]

ngl mix of annoyed at myself and at the show for that doorway shot that made it look like tianxi was the one to pass on the photo because I knew that clothes-wise tianxi didn't fit at all but I really thought they wouldn't mislead so drastically with such a crucial shot. it would have been so so easy to just either not show a close-up of the face or to just have the reddish eyes showing through the shadow if they wanted to be ambiguous but instead they actively drew it to be tianxi with the fringe and the eyelashes that male characters pretty much never get. but like. at the same time, once it was confirmed that tianxi is mentally much younger than she seems her justification for taking liu min's phone dries up somewhat. if she's older 'mentally' it makes sense as blackmail or a get out of jail card, but we've actively seen tianxi *at* the age she's stuck at and she was in no way manipulative enough to even think of that kinda thing

Sort of not really but still SPOILER ALERT - Presumed Innocent

you know that part where Barbara asks Rusty if that how sex was with Carolyn and Rusty seems to get almost irritated with the question??? That shit got to me that’s really how it is when you get cheated on.

I remember when my partner cheated and everything little thing would trigger me into asking if that’s how it was with the girl. Anything new that he was doing or when we were first intimate after the whole thing, I wasn’t 100% there because all you can thing about is if this what the other girl was getting from him.

Idk it was a random thought lmao show has me feeling some type of way

obsessed with Jake in this role 😮‍💨

I began The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles case 2-5 last night: The Resolve of Ryunosuke Naruhodo.

I have thoughts as always.

I will begin with not being surprised that Lord Stronghart wanted even more control over the trial by stepping into the Judge's chair himself. I knew he wouldn't stay on the sidelines. He's stuck his dirty hands in every part of this case.

(But it's a missed opportunity for the usual British judge, a man who seems sympathetic to Van Zieks to say a few encouraging words at the end of the trial. That would have been a good parallel/echo to the Judge telling Edgeworth "You are innocent" in Turnabout Goodbyes. But I digress.)

Let's talk about Barok van Zieks next!

His scene in the defendant's antechamber is nice. Ryunosuke, Susato, Iris and even Sholmes are all so kind to him and he's grateful for it! And says as much out loud. I can see that he's got a bit of a Defrosting Ice Prince arc going on. His growth is slow but I recognize it, and to me it's just enough for me to actually like him.

It's for that reason, I hope he's telling everyone the truth, and that he's not lying just so Ryunosuke will keep up his legal defense (like McGilded in DGS 1-3.) It would be great to see he means everything he says in his softer moments, and to also see Ryunosuke's belief in him be in the right place.

I was also amused when Van Zieks did his usual courtroom antics on the witness stand (raising an objection, filling his chalice, the leg slam) - and Stronghart simply shrugged and said "I'll allow it."

Then we move on to Kazuma.

He is still bound and determined to hold on to his line of reasoning that Van Zieks is the head of the Reaper organization. He and Stronghart are at odds as to how they want to prove this, but they both want to see him convicted. It's hard to tell if Kazuma will stay on this course or if the friction between these two will lead to a breakdown in their shaky alliance. I could still see it going either way.

Kazuma himself is suspicious. The tip of his sword was found in Gregson's trunk and refuses to testify!

So at the end of this first segment, the scene cuts to Sholmes and Mikotoba, who are investigating the steamship where it all happened.

I expect they will find something crucial to Ryunosuke's side of the argument, and I will find out what it is the next time I play.

So far though, this is a great chapter opening. The drama is top-tier for sure.

[rivercule]

Okay but WHAT did Aemond say? Clearly he owned up to killing Lucerys or there would have been no war. Did he tell his mom “sorry I killed my nephew accidentally in a revenge fueled dragon prank”? Did he say “oh yeah I killed cousin Luke. Just because. Murder is fun and absolutely free”

Did he even consider the fact that perhaps the best thing to do might be to pretend he DIDN’T kill Luke just because he had a pretty good out in the fact that Luke set out clearly upset on dragonback in awful weather and absolutely no one besides him and his dragon were witness to all of this. Luke could have just died accidentally dude no one had to know

[det-loki]

Rusty might have done this!!! But hear me out!!! What about the wife??? Ehhh maybe!! But Tommy is also so suspicious acting for some reason 😮

My mind tonight!!

Rusty 60%

Barbara 40%

Tammy 60%

agree agree agreeee!!! but I'm not so sure on tommy having anything to do with it, but!!! he could definitely have motive for wanting to take rusty out. barbara as well! we shall see!

I've walked past the Barbie branded selfie booth, sat through the reel of old commercials that precede the previews, and watched Margot Robbie learn to cry, and I’m still not sure what “doing the thing and subverting the thing,” which Greta Gerwig claimed as the achievement of Barbie in a recent New York Times Magazine profile, could possibly mean. This was the second Gerwig profile the magazine has run. I wrote the first one, in 2017, which in hindsight appears like a warning shot in a publicity campaign that has cemented Gerwig’s reputation as so charming and pure of heart that any choice (we used to call them compromises) she makes is justified, a priori, by her innocence. This is a strange position for an adult to occupy, especially when the two-hour piece of branded content she is currently promoting hinges on a character who discovers that her own innocence is the false product of a fallen world. But—spoiler alert!—the point of Barbie’s “hero’s journey” is less to reconcile Barbie to death than to reconcile the viewer to culture in the age of IP.

“Doing the thing and subverting the thing”: I haven’t finished working out the details, but I think the rough translation would be Getting rich and not feeling feel bad about it. (Or, for the viewer: Having a good time and not feeling bad about it.) One must labor under a rather reduced sense of the word “subvert” to be impressed with poking loving fun at product misfires such as Midge (the pregnant Barbie), Tanner (the dog who poops), and the Ken with the earring, especially given that the value of all these collectors’ items has, presumably, not decreased since the film opened. Barbie may feature a sassy tween sternly informing Robbie’s Stereotypical Barbie that the tiny-waisted top-heavy billion-dollar business she represents has made girls “feel bad” about themselves, but if anyone uttered the word “anorexia,” I missed it. (There was a reason Todd Haynes told the story of Karen Carpenter’s life and death with Barbies, and it wasn’t because an uncanny piece of molded plastic has the magical power to resolve the contradictions of girlhood and global capitalism.) There’s a bit about Robbie going back into a box in the Mattel boardroom, but Barbies aren’t made in an executive suite; they come from factories in China. On the one hand, it’s weird for a film about a real-world commodity to unfold wholly in the realm of ideas and feelings, but then again, that’s pretty much the definition of branding. Mattel doesn’t care if we buy Barbie dolls—they’re happy to put the word “Barbie” on sunglasses and T-shirts, or license clips from the movie for an ad for Google. OK, here’s my review: When Gerwig first visited Mattel HQ in October 2019, the company’s stock was trading at less than twelve dollars a share. Today the price is $21.40.

“I can’t believe you beat me in ski ball,” you giggled as you looked over at Cam. “I’m like the reigning champion.”

He shrugged. “Turns out working at an arcade does come in hand sometimes.” You cracked a smile before letting out a snicker.

You were a debutante last year which is where you met Cameron. Both your guys' moms worked at the country club that hosted the ball. You would run into him often because of this. After a while, you developed a little crush on him and had asked him to be your escort since you didn’t have one.

It wasn’t until this year you actually decided to pursue something with him. You finally asked him out on a date and he picked the location, which was the arcade he worked at since he got a discount.

Cam had just dropped you off at your house and refused to let you walk up to your front door alone. He was truly a gentleman who was adorable and he knew it.

You grabbed your key out of your pocket and unlocked the door. “Can I come in and say hi to your mom?” he asked, peeking his head through the open door.

You giggled and looked back at him again. “No, my parents aren’t home.”

“Oh.” He then looked down at his phone, presumably checking the time before tucking it back into his pocket. “You sure you don’t want to come back to my house? I don’t want you to be here alone.”

You shook your head. “No, my dad wouldn’t like me going over to a boy’s house at night.” He nodded his head and flashed a quick smile, agreeing with you. “But you can stay here and keep me company!”

You didn’t even think twice about the offer, you just said it. His eyebrows raised slightly as his cheeks dusted a red tint. “Okay,” he gushed.

You let him into the house before shutting the door behind you two and locking the door. You watched as he admired the interior of the house, his mouth slightly hung open. “What?” you laughed.

“Nothing!” he said as he looked back at you. “Your house just looks like a beach house.”

“Well it is on the beach.” This won a chuckle out of him as he continued looking around. “You want a tour?” you asked as you walked up to him.

“Sure!” he answered as he nodded his head.

You grabbed his hand and led him around the entire downstairs. According to him, his favorite room was the living room due to the fireplace. You then led him upstairs and showed him every other room before leading him to your own room.

You opened the door and led him in. “Here’s my room. Sorry, it’s a little messy.” There was a t-shirt and a pair of socks lying on your unmade bed. You quickly took those off and threw them in your laundry basket.

At least your room smelled good because of the essential oils you had just purchased. “I like the vines on the wall,” he commented as he pointed at them.

You giggled, “Put them up myself.” You then plopped down on the bed and looked at him as he took in every corner of your room. “You wanna watch something? I can pull something up on my Mac.”

He nodded his head and sat down on the bed next to you.

…

You weren’t sure how it happened, but one thing led to another and now you were on top of him making out. You pulled away and looked down at him as his chest rose and fell with his heavy breaths.

“Have you done this before?” he asked. His eyes reminded you of a puppy. There was so much innocence in them and his lashes gave his eyes a more doe look.

You were tempted to lie and said you had, but staring into his eyes just poured the truth out of you. “Uh… no,” you answered. “Have you?”

“Nuh uh,” he said. You licked your lips and looked off to the side. “Do you… uh… want to?”

You looked back at him and hesitantly nodded your head. You could hear the beating of your heart in your ear, the silence between you two was deafening.

“Okay,” he breathed out. His hand met the side of your face before tucking loose strands of your hair behind your ear.

He smiled at you and gently leaned forward to capture your lips in his once more. You sighed against his lips, his touch sending chills down your spine.

Your hands slid up his shirt causing a groan to escape from his lips. He kissed you harder and deeper this time. You could feel his tongue poking at your bottom lip, hoping to meet yours. You let him do so, his tongue danced with his.

You felt his hands run up your shirt, his hands felt cold against your heated skin. It made you shiver a bit but you enjoyed every second of it.

You pulled away again and let him take off your shirt. He stared at your topless body, drooling over your figure.

You gasped softly, your breath hitching when his fingers brushed across your breasts. Your hips jolted as your nipples hardened beneath your bra.

“Fuck,” you whispered.

He noticed your reaction and stopped what he was doing. “Is this okay?” he asked. You nodded your head, leading him to cup your breasts again.

Him touching you felt nice, but you wanted to do more than that. You were just too nervous to ask. You didn’t want to obviously have full on sex, but you at least wanted him to do more.

Your face must’ve given that away because he asked, “What do you want me to do?”

“Uh,” you thought about it for a minute. “Can you… uh…” Your face turned bright red as embarrassment washed over you. “Finger me?”

His cheeks flushed crimson and his eyes widened. He pulled his finger away as he nodded. “Yeah,” he answered. You hopped off of him and laid down on the bed next to him.

His gaze softened and you gave him an encouraging grin. He swallowed hard before he slid his hand down your shorts.

Your breaths hitched as your eyes fluttered close. His fingers moved in a circular motion around your clit. You opened your eyes as you held back any sounds that may escape your lips.

He pulled you back into a kiss, it tasted like vanilla ice cream and mint toothpaste. He moved a little faster, rubbing your clit with his ring and middle fingers until you let a moan slip in his mouth.

He then inserted his fingers inside you, your wetness made it easier for him. Your back arched as you let out a louder moan.

His kisses became more frantic, almost desperate. Every time he moved his fingers or thrust into your depths you would squirm. A small whine left your mouth as your hips bucked upwards.

You finally pulled away since you needed to catch your breath. His fingers sent a wave of pleasure through you. “Cam,” you whimpered. His wet fingers pulled out of you and continued to massage your clit until you finally came undone.

Your whole body felt drowsy but still buzzing with excitement. When your orgasm had passed and your breathing returned to normal you rolled onto your side. “Do you want to do it again?” you asked him with a grin.

He nodded and crawled back on top of you, but before anything could escalate, the sound of jingling keys and the front door opened echoed through the house

“Fuck,” you mumbled. “My parents.” You rolled your eyes.

He chuckled, “Now I can say hi to your mom.” You rolled your eyes and pushed him off you.

[thewrothode-if]

I am very confused and have so many questions. What exactly *happened* in the scene where MC sees some monster as their mother somehow? What did MC do that their father didn't like? Why did Raud leave? Why does MC hate Gungir? Why doesn't MC want to obey their father, and why do they anyway even after starting with such clear intent that they won't? Why is MC so shocked by Anne knowing that MC was in the very same settlement in which Anne met and spoke to to the MC directly? Why does Anne desperately want to go to the place where she already was? Why does MC say that Anne wants to meet the King when that is not even close to what Anne said?

If any of you haven't read the first chapter and don't want any spoilers, I'll hide my answers.

What exactly happened in the scene where MC sees some monster as their mother somehow?

I presume you're talking about the prologue scene where the mother goes crazy. In that scene, it is actually your mother. She just went crazy. As to what happened in the scene, I'm gonna be blunt here: your father strangled her, thus killing her.

What did MC do that their father didn't like?

I've talked a lot about this in other asks like this one. Basically, your father hates you because you remind him of your mother. Your very presence is a reminder of the fact that he killed her so that guilt evolves into a toxic hatred for you.

Why did Raud leave?

Honestly, I couldn't really find a place to put why he left, and there is a reason the readers don't know. So I might need to come back to this.

Why does MC hate Gungir?

The MC hates Gungir because, as I wrote in the pinned post and in the IF itself, he's the son your father always wanted. He treats him better than he treats you, but it's not really shown so I might add scenes where his favoritism is show.

I was planning on improving the first chapter and adding an entire new scene where you actually go on a raid (i love changing my mind about the first chapter right after releasing it) so things might change slightly.

Why doesn't MC want to obey their father, and why do they anyway even after starting with such clear intent that they won't?

There is actually a choice where you can willingly choose to go. But the many choices where you don't want to go overshadow it because the hatred for your father is something that makes his order easy to decline.

You have the choice to not go to the docks in the morning, therefore refusing to go, but you still get dragged over there by Gungir because the Jarl wants you out. And if you selected the choice where you agreed to go, you will not get the option to think about it the next day.

Why is MC so shocked by Anne knowing that MC was in the very same settlement in which Anne met and spoke to to the MC directly?

You do not meet Anne at the destroyed settlement, you meet her at another settlement/town/village. She is shocked because she heard of a settlement that has been destroyed and as a soft-hearted gal, she feels sympathy for the settlement.

Why does Anne desperately want to go to the place where she already was?

This is something I'm confused about. I'm not sure if it's because I coded it wrongly so it led to another scene, or if what I wrote was just a little confusing. But as I said above, you do not meet her at the destroyed settlement.

As to why she wants to go along with you, in her own words, "I cannot stand by while innocent are butchered."

Why does MC say that Anne wants to meet the King when that is not even close to what Anne said?

I might change that wording since Anne doesn't really know the plans yet, but it was supposed to be the MC getting ahead of themselves and all that.

I hope some of your questions are answered!
