#the stupidest family ever

[nickyroethemarinebiologist]

My BBC ghosts ocs!!

(In order from the oldest to the youngest)

TW: slight gore descriptions??

Original versions

Basic story premise

Roan (he/him): A caveman, died from a disease in his late 20s/early 30s, doesn't speak much and prefers to talk with his hands or in noises, or with simpler words if at all (he's not stupid!! They're just easier), absolutely LOVES dinosaurs, wishes he could have seen one, no powers!

Cornelius (he/him): Roman soldier who died in 83 AD ish, mid 20s, he died to his own dagger after an accident in battle, very stupid, very close with Philip, no powers!

Maud (she/her): Villager from the 1300s, in her 30s, died from a lack of air after being shut in the basement of her house (an accident, of course), speaks very rarely or very quietly, likes birds, mostly keeps to herself, her power is that her breathing can be heard by the living

Philip (he/him): 17th century highwayman, late 20s, died while on the run from the authorities when he fell into a ditch and broke his neck (it's embarrassing for him though, so he just tells everyone he was executed instead), he's a bastard (affectionate), no powers!

Hattie (she/her): A maid, died in 1822 after her food was poisoned, in her 40s, very loud, critical, outspoken, etc, has cool aunt vibes, gives surprisingly great advice

Thomas (he/him): A chimney sweep from 1844, about 15/16 when he died, died from a sort of lung-related disease from all the chimney sweeping, can be rude or blunt but he's very well-meaning!! He just never really learned proper manners, really looks up to Francis, very grubby, he can leave sooty marks with his fingers (like writing and stuff)

Nellie (she/her): Upper class, drowned in 1912 after falling into the lake, is convinced she was pushed, in her 20s, used to be rich and is now very annoying about it, will sometimes act as if she's better than everyone...but she loves them really, Nellie is short for Eleanor, she's annoying (affectionate), ADORES cats, very protective of Maud, her reflection (in water, but maybe also mirrors) can be seen by the living

Francis (he/him): A 20th century historian/archeologist, died of a heart attack caused by stress and exhaustion, in his 40s, mostly just tired and annoyed, asks Roan a whole BUNCH of questions, absolutely fed up of the afterlife, a little judgey, has a walking stick and will hit you with it

Michael (he/him): An electrician from the 80s, in his 30s, died from electrocution after an unfortunate accident, doesn't remember much about his death (or life), pretty forgetful but very sweet, cheerful wingman sort of vibes, a little naïve, mostly just goes along with what people tell him, always up for pranks or shenanigans, can sort of manipulate electricity in that he can give people little shocks and he made the whole house lose power at one point

[piosplayhouse]

Kind of want to rewatch cql because every time I try to recall a plot point that I hated from it i work myself into a frenzy like no way they actually included that but I don't know if I can make it through the t pose and flute scenes honestly

[coffeeastronaut]

got mad about the portrayal of adoption in media again. 10 dead 50 injured

Honestly I would dislike Christmas a lot less if people would acknowledge they like Holiday Traditions in general? Of course you enjoy getting together with loved ones and exchanging gifts and eating festive food, but for Some Reason (cultural Christianity) Christmas is positioned as UNIQUELY SPECIAL AND MAGICAL!!! and the only reason you could ever disagree is if you have a rotten soul who hates everything about being alive

I’m gonna go kms rq :l

hey is there a difference from stealing something mass manufactured from a multibillion dollar corporation or stealing food from homeless people. trying to see somethjng. trying to prove my family wrong

[tweeterwilbury]

Im going insane because I need to have a trivia/quiz night with someone but all the questions NEED to be about my special interests so i can infodump about them because someone asked me about them. Infodumping after a question is so much better than just infodumping

[todayisafridaynight]

IW spoilers but I think it'd have been sick, especially w Ebina vs Kiryu being the end fight, if Ebina was from Sunflower; man can have pretty much the same backstory and cope and seethe abt the yakuza all he likes and NOT JUST BE ANOTHER AOKI SURPRISE BONUS ARAKAWA FAMILY DRAMA

I know this would take away from Ichi focus again but it aint as if the narrative hasn't already done that by making him deal w old wrinklyass munakata 2 cult boogaloo as his story and not letting him sit with family time

i desperately need kiryu to think for more than 2 minutes about Kazama being not perfect

NO BUT LITERALLY IF EBINA HAD TO HAVE CONNECTIONS TO A YAKUZA TO HATE THEM ALL THEN SUNFLOWER WOLUD'VE BEEN PERFECT

esp with the substory in gaiden it feels like the franchise keeps edging us into having kiryu fully accept kazama wasnt perfect and seeing how he affected Everyone Else That Wasn't Him. like GREAT for you kiryu that it worked out, everyone else tho !!!! uh !!!!!!! 👁️‍🗨️👁️‍🗨️

like he gets that realization in small doses but ebina couldve been a great bigger example of that ...

my mum was difficult with a lot of things when i was growing up (i was brought up as your typical eldest daughter), my parents were the type to ask why i didn't get 100 when i brought home a 99. but inexplicably my mum taught me her signature when i was 12 so i could sign school stuff in her stead if i ever forgot to ask her to sign something (permission slips, tests, etc). so i guess she did trust me a little bit, she must have known i wouldn't abuse it. and i didn't, specifically because i knew she trusted me. well played, i guess. make me a people pleaser who feels guilty about everything, and then give me the power to break the rules, knowing i'm too fucked up to do it. yes i am pissed off about that. i didn't even get to maliciously fake my mum's signature which is a rite of passage for every kid, because any time i did fake it i knew i had my mum's permission, and any time i knew i wouldn't have her permission i just didn't do it because it would be betraying her trust. we weren't even close or anything like we weren't a sentimental kind of family when i was a kid. i just felt guilty in general

like i tend to hate every fandom cause its always annoying some way or other but theres actually so much i literally bloody despise about the ace attorney fandom and all that random fanon they made up without even realising it has absolutely nothing to do with the games. it isnt even good fanon if that could even exist most of it is total utter rubbish

[nialls-harmonica]

I’m so anxious I actually feel like I’m going to explode rn

[fearofevrything]

finished like a dragon 8 sunday night and god DAMN is this series peak fucking gaming bro. it’s nice now being able to play premium adventure and to have some fun without the constant threat of kiryu maybe possibly dying by the end of the game hanging over my head. i even put him in his resurrected dragon outfit so we can just pretend none of this ever happened and we’re just a group of freaks and weirdos terrorizing the streets of hawaii and japan for fun. like i understand that the story is SO well written and is overall a “good” story but for fucks sake hasn’t kiryu suffered enough? they give him literal cancer and spend his portions of the game reminding you of this fact like…PLEASE. LET HIM STOP SUFFERING. LET HIM SEE HIS FUCKING KIDS!!!!

Needs to be said : this is the result of “paternal rights.” This is why I firmly believe males should not have any rights to children they may have fathered without the mother’s explicit consent. If she’s saying no, it’s likely for good reason.
