Red lace wrapped around his wrist and tugged. Jax turned, annoyed, to look at Gangle, who pointed towards Ragatha just as the doll ran into a pillar again.
Jax frowned. Right, she had been doing that for the last few minutes. The room they were in, made of construction bricks with colorful cubes piled up randomly, didn’t really help, either. She seemed disoriented, tripping with every obstacle she came against.

Miles' perspective on his own trial must be incredible because, like, he's having the worst fucking days of his life. He's been arrested for the murder of someone he hated and has no explanation for it, he's relentlessly having nightmares about his own father's murder (it's the ANNIVERSARY of that murder), he's spacing out constantly due to no sleep and trauma and overwhelming confusion, he got to spice up his flashbacks with a panic attack thanks to an earthquake in front of Phoenix, who is his only option for defense and has very little experience and is now in the line of fire of von Karma, and he's being prosecuted by his own mentor who has never lost a case and is also just a colossal ass.
And THEN comes the parade of more unreliable witnesses. A dropout university student hoping to be the investigative photographer who catches a lake monster, who has convinced herself she saw him do it. A boat rental caretaker who has amnesia and also possibly brain damage and may or may not be connected to his father's murder fifteen years ago. And then LARRY BUTZ, who was there for some reason??? And somehow just reversed the guilty sentence with his stumbling testimony about listening to the radio??? Miles must be wondering if he's hallucinating any or all of this because everything is SO BAD.
And THEN... AND THEN... it's time to cross-examine the parrot.

Submas AU October - Day 11: Apocalyptic
(bringing in my dystopian AU for this one, since its basis is technically apocalyptic)
Meet the Resistance - a group of people living in the oppressed city of Lower Unova.
In an alternate world where Volo was able to win the battle at the Temple of Sinnoh and subjugate Arceus, he's successfully rebuilt a new world in his vision. As the self-proclaimed emperor, he rules over Lower Unova (a city that is scarce on resources) with an iron fist, especially to those who actively oppose him; meanwhile, Upper Unova prospers and flourishes with those who follow his lead.
Despite all odds being stacked against them, especially facing Emperor Volo's army in constant battles and skirmishes, the members of the Resistance still fight - for they one day hope to overthrow the emperor and bring peace to both cities. To unite them.
And to keep their fighting spirit strong, they wear an emblem on their clothes to serve as a constant reminder of what they're fighting for... Though this emblem resembles a Pokemon they're only familiar with in either spoken legend or limited written lore, it's still one they choose to believe will help bring them peace someday.
Here we have (pictured from left to right, for the most part):
Alder - Leader of the Resistance (and also essentially a father figure to Emmet)
Nate & Rosa - orphaned children who aren't members of the Resistance, but rather who are close to many of its members
Mallow - a chef and medic
Elesa - a fighter, childhood friend of Emmet
Blacephalon - Emmet's main battle partner; with Emmet's command of a simple snapping of the fingers, it will use its Mind Blown attack
Emmet - one of the Resistance's strongest fighters; ah, I think I'll save more on him for later ;) (just for context his mask is supposed to be based on Blacephalon, more on that later too - he wears it into battle, though, helps obscure identity and such)
(FINALLY I RELEASE SOMETHING ABOUT THIS AU!! tbh I had intentions of getting this done during Emmet month buuuut it got away from me - but here it is now! better late than never, right? this is probably my favorite au of mine that i've made so far and i hope to show more of it ;w;)
((btw not... all resistance members pictured here, but... well, you'll see what i mean soon enough :D))

im loving the fact that tommy is an established character with established relationships with the 118, just like karen, just like athena, just like maddie, because that was a huge thing that made it a part of why i think it was so hard to like bucks previous love interests.
like, yes. abby and taylor tried to gel with them, ali kinda knew OF them, but natalia was completely seperate and lucy wasnt even really a love interest. neither of the main 2 (abby and taylor) actually had any link to anyone other than buck. taylor was the closest (but she fucked that up badly lmao).
im so hyped to see whether we get more of tommy and the 118, because he has history with all of them, except eddie (who he's now good friends with), and buck (who he is now dating).
if you look at all the other 'partners', they are all a part of the 118 family, and pretty linked together: athena is besties with hen and married to bobby, karen lived across from and was good friends with chimney and is now married to hen, maddie is bucks brother and is married to chimney, etc.
i feel like bucks other love interests were only ever linked to him, and he always worried about losing them, because he didnt think he was good enough.
but this time with tommy the difference is (tommy actually cares about buck) that hes known by his family and hes safe and hes confident and caring and patient, plus the rest of the 118 all think hes a good guy, and also tommy saved bathena and chimney and hes friends with eddie, and christopher likes him, etc.
everybody that matters to buck, except maddie, likes and knows tommy.
(and who is he going to introduce tommy to next episode? maddie.)
maybe buck doesnt have to worry so much about him leaving, like abby did, or worry how to introduce tommy to his family and not have him run for the hills from the complex parts of his life, like natalia or ali did
because tommys already halfway in it yknow?
