hey i know it's been a while since you started posting these guys but what fandom is all over your blog? i can't tell if its a show or a comic or a novel or what. i'm curious bc the content looks intriguing but i haven't a single solitary clue what it is.

MXTX books! They've been adapted a lot of times in different formats, so I understand the confusion

[gritty-big-naturals]

i am losing my god damn mind over this

[biggest-gaudiest-patronuses]

i vote that next year instead of reading Dracula we do a Jeeves & Wooster Book Club. those two never got the rabid tumblr shipping fandom they deserved (disqualified for the sheer technicality of being published a century too soon). we must correct this injustice

Fun fact! This was the real tipping point that made Edgeworth run away after AA1, they just couldn't show it on screen because they didn't have the rights to Chappell Roan's music <3

(A spiritual successor to my "Hot to Go" joke from this post. Image description under the cut below)

[Image ID: a four page black and white comic of characters from ace attorney.

The Judge stands solemnly at his podium holding a gavel "Mr. Miles Edgeworth, you are on trial for the murder of blah blah blah..."

A cheerful Maya Fey leans over to Miles Edgeworth, who is staring straight ahead and looking very concerned

Maya: "Psst! Mr. Edgeworth! If you win your trial, can I show you Chappell Roan?

Miles: "What the hell, sure." Internally he thinks "Oh God I am going to jail"

A box saying "later" in the top corner of the next panel marks the passage of time.

The Judge smiles as he says "I declare you... Not Guilty!"

We see a full body shot of Maya dancing excitedly while Miles looks on, emotionless

Maya: YIPPEE omg you're going to LOVE this

Miles internally thinks "oh no, the consequences of my actions.

We see Miles standing in between Phoenix Wright and Maya looking apprehensive. Maya beams in excitement, while Nick puts a reassuring hand on Miles' shoulder

Miles: Alright, so what is this exactly?

Nick: She's a pop musician Maya really likes

Maya: You promised you'd let me show you, and it's legally binding because you said it in a court room!

Miles: That is not how the law works Ms. Fey

Maya: Shh just listen!

We see a panel of Miles' pensive face concentrating as he listens to "Hot to Go". He thinks to himself "hm".

Another panel zoomed in more. His pensive expression has grown more tense/confused as he listens to "Red Wine Supernova". he again thinks to himself "Hm" in a larger thought bubble.

We zoom out again to see Nick, Miles, and Maya standing together again. Miles stares forward blankly, eyebrows raised. Maya excitedly leans in.

Maya: Ok, that's her whole discography. So! What did you think?

Nick looks at him, waiting for his response

We get a panel of Miles, looking bewildered. He starts to speak "I..."

We cut again to see the three of them standing together.

Miles: I... don't think I like women?

Miles looks shocked and confused. Nick is bent over laughing, using a hand on Miles's shoulder to support himself. Maya looks outraged and appalled!

Maya: MR. EDGEWORTH! Just because you don' like her musi it doesn't give you an excuse to be sexist!

We see a panel of Miles looking stressed and confused. He leans his head on one of his hands, which messes up his hair, showing how he isn't his normal put together self.

Miles: I should rephrase that. What I mean is, Ms. Roan is clearly VERY assured in her feelings towards women. I was... unaware that anyone felt that strongly. I thought we all viewed these things with a vague sense of distaste and unease but collectively ignored it. Like how we do with climate change.

We zoom out again to see the three of them. Miles stands in the middle looking deeply uncomfortable and lost in thought, vibrating with unease. Nick and Maya exchange deeply concerned glances across from him.

With lingering unease, Miles begins to walk away.

Miles: Well, I should be going then. Goodnight.

Nick hesitantly raises a finger to point out an inaccuracy in that statement

Nick: It's four in the afternoon-

he gets interrupted by Miles who repeats firmly: I said Goodnight

Nick looks in the direction Miles walked off in.

Nick: ...He'll be ok, right?

Maya reassures him: Of cours Nick! I mean, what's the worst that can happen?

Jump cut to a closeup of Nick's hand holding Miles' letter which reads Miles Edgeworth chooses death in all caps. Then, below in smaller font, it says Also femininomenon was really good, thanks.

We see a panel of Nick glaring wordlessly at Maya as he holds the letter in his hand. Maya leans against the wall and looks away, whistling, trying to look innocent to avoid blame.

As a bonus, we also have a page that takes place a year later. Miles and Nick stand talking. Miles looks calmer now, and Nick smiles encouragingly.

Miles: In my time in Europe, I've been examining myself and my approach to law. Ultimately, the most important focus must be justice. We owe it to ourselves and to the people we serve

Nick: Wow, that's really inspiring Edgeworth. And, uh, hows the... the other thing going?

We get a zoomed in panel of Miles glaring menacingly at a suddenly nervous Nick

Jumping out again, Miles turns his back to Nick as he continues to talk

Miles: So as I was saying, justice is truly so important...

Nick nervously rubs the back of his neck wearing an awkward expression as he sweats nervously. He thinks to himself internally "Ooookay then, clearly still working through some things there"

I get emotional thinking about how much it must have meant to Xie Lian to have one of the most influential people in his life confirm that he accepts him even though he's in love with another man (the fact that he's a supreme ghost king is a lil weird but who cares!!)

“It’s not that we’re fighting for special rights just for us. We’re fighting for the same rights.” — Jim Obergefell

Nine years ago today, the landmark Supreme Court ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges recognized a simple truth: love is love. 

This decision ruled that all states must license marriages to same-sex couples and recognize marriages lawfully performed out of state. Obergefell v. Hodges guaranteed marriage equality in a monumental ruling for the LGBTQIA+ community. 🏳️‍🌈

"Love is what makes you human"

Oh thank fuck so I can't categorise myself with you bigoted losers-- oh wait was I supposed to be upset about that?

What ACTUALLY makes me human is the deal I made with Apollo to take a roughly you shaped form in order to interact with the cool bugs of the world and make snakes out of cardboard tubes. In exchange I have to drive the sun chariot every Saturday and Tuesday.

I will say that you humans are a bit of a drawback though. Whatever, back to drawing stars and rocket ships 🚀⚡

Because I’ve seen genuinely nobody talking about it, I wanted to make a post about United States vs. Skrmetti, the Supreme Court case that just had oral arguments made today. This case was brought forth by the ACLU, and asks whether discrimination against trans people can violate the Constitution, in response to Tennessee’s law banning gender affirming care for trans youth.

This is the most important trans rights case probably fucking ever, and though nothing was decided today, it doesn’t look good y’all. For anyone. In short, the Court is probably going to uphold Tennessee's ban on care for minors, but might absolutely destroy rules about sex-based discrimination. Several of the Republican justices "suggested creating a carveout from the ordinary constitutional rule restricting sex-based discrimination of all kinds." Chief Justice Roberts offered up the idea of allowing the government sweeping authority to engage in medical discrimination, and of course, Justices Kavanaugh, Alito, Barrett, and Thomas all indicated being in favor of that. The implications go beyond just trans people, here.

And not only does it look like the Supreme Court will uphold Tennessee's law, but this decision could open doors for the government to prevent adults from seeking gender affirming care, likely leaving it a states' rights situation. For many of us (trans people), this will likely end up being a matter of life or death. Red states have been trying to institute bans like this for years now, and the decision that may very well come down from the Supreme Court about Skrmetti will only embolden these efforts.

Please don't ignore this post. Please reblog it, spread it around, because I've seen dick about it on this website all day. Engage in local and state governments, form community, don't stick your head in the sand. If you're cis, you should reblog this. Trans issues effect you too, and if caring about other human beings isn't a reason enough for you to give a damn, they will eventually become your issues.

Educate yourselves, know your rights, and know what's happening in your communities. There are good things out there too. The arguments made in front of the court today were historic on multiple fronts. Chase Strangio, the lawyer for the ACLU, became the first known/openly trans person to argue in front of the Supreme Court. That's one hell of a historic first. I know the impulse right now is to turn away from news and politics, because it all seems painful, but that is the last thing we should be doing. Please stay vigilant, and stay hopeful.

if you dont know, the supreme court just allowed Idaho to ban gender affirming care for trans youth !! please send love to any transgender youth you know, especially anyone in Idaho.

this is absolutely terrifying, as a trans youth myself living in a state absolutely filled with right wing individuals, i am scared for me and my fellow trans youth living in ANY state, but especially red states like mine.

i'll reblog this post with anything i can find on how to help stop this, and you should too. please boost this, this affects all trans people, but especially trans youth, who already lack so many rights just for being youth.
