WATANUKI WE CAN CONFIRM THAT FOR YOU NOW, EVEN THOUGH YOU DIDN’T HEAR THIS BIT

They’re also ever so slightly see-through. I think we knew this last time but it’s been a while. Let me just check…

Ok yes that was still happening back then too.

(What do you mean that was five months ago)

i think the biggest travesty of the shift from DS/3DS to PC for Ace Attorney is the fact that you can no longer object by screaming into the mic.

Hell, it forced you to yell into the mic for the final objections. I finished RFTA in the back of a moving van which resulted in me trying to desperately whisper yell as to not disturb everyone around me...

And fingerprinting powder? You blew into the mic. You huffed and puffed and hoped to god it picked you up enough to simulate brushing the dust away.

"I know EVO lore from watching Martyn!" "I know EVO lore from fanon!" I know EVO lore from WATCHING EVO all jokes aside, I heavily reccomend watching EVO to get a bit more of a feel for EVO lore! espesc since there are some surprises that you might not have gotten from fanon ;) but seriously, EVO can be pretty long, but I'd say its worth it! (I watched Jimmy's, since he was there from beginning to end and his is really funny AND not super lorey but just enough lorey)

the autistic urge to use overly formal language. wdym i'm being pretentious for saying "one", its so much faster then being like "somebody ... some people ... blah blah ... "

I'll never get enough of the AUs where Murtagh in some way, at some point ends up in Carvahall instead of Uru'baen. There are so many potential variations of how he gets there and who he stays with and even the little differences have some really fun effects. I'm especially intrigued by the idea of Murtagh growing up there while still clearly remembering Morzan and his dragon and where he came from. I think it makes for an interesting counterpoint to canon where Murtagh can't escape his past and his father's legacy because that's what everyone sees in him. Instead, in Carvahall, his past becomes such a dangerous taboo that it can't even be acknowledged, much less focused on. Rather than his past restricting him in its grasp, it keeps sliding out of his own grasp, defying all his efforts to understand what it means for him and what everyone else might feel about it. Black and blue eyes and gleaming red scales haunt his dreams, but he has to swallow those memories down every time.

Assuming Murtagh grows up with Garrow and Marian, when he first arrives with all his fear, he's determined to never breath a word about any of that. But he gets older and starts to second guess that resolve- Eragon aches to know who his father is and Murtagh hates lying to him. He deserves to eventually know the truth (what Murtagh thinks is true, that is), even if it's painful. And it gnaws at Murtagh's own heart to wonder if his family would accept him if they knew, or if the only thing perpetuating his acceptance is their ignorance. At night, he tosses and turns wondering if he's turning out just like his father, a question he can never answer because he has no reference of Morzan beyond his own dim, scattered memories.

One of my favorite AUs like this that exist inside my brain follows that track and actually stays very close to canon. Murtagh grows up alongside Eragon, and plans to tell him about his past when he turns 16, but before that, the Ra'zac arrive and he's tortured as well as Garrow. He pulls through only to discover Eragon vanished with Brom and he goes to track them down, eventually saving them when they're the ones at the Ra'zac's mercy. Then when he's kidnapped and enslaved, there's so much more heartbreak and guilt because he's pitted against everyone he grew up with and cares for. And maybe Brom gets to live so there can be a reckoning when Murtagh does tell Eragon what he believes about their parentage, following him as he struggles for the courage to face his son and tries to find any way to help his step son, before it's all too late.

For something that goes quite differently, I've been thinking through an AU where both Selena and Morzan live. Selena fakes Murtagh's death to disguise her stealing him away and she and Brom raise him and Eragon in Carvahall. They love and protect them fiercely and the boys grow up safe and happy, but whenever Murtagh tries to ask about the things that happened before, they swiftly shut him down and dissuade him from ever mentioning it out of their own fear of the past. It leaves him feeling out of place and fragmentary. And that comes at a cost when Morzan appears, under orders to search for the egg. Murtagh has to hurriedly figure out what he was never able to, now with so much danger hanging in the balance, because no matter how Morzan could want to treat him, that might not matter against the king's orders. And Selena and Brom have to confront their own snarled relationships with Morzan that were never truly laid to rest. (It also caters to my desire to jerry rig the three of them into a very messy and emotionally charged polycule.)

In that one, I build something more redeemable into Morzan's character (soon I definitely plan to elaborate on why I find that a fascinating angle to take with him). I don't know if anyone would want it, but I wrote a drabble for that AU when Murtagh first sees Morzan again, and I could brush it up and post it. [EDIT: here's the fic] I just love the idea of small town farm boy Murtagh who's peaceful and amiable and also just a little bit off. Like maybe sending the guy who dreams each night about blood red swords and dragon's snapping fangs to go plow fields won't last forever.

while the reason behind the matching bracelets in my last drawing was literally just me going "hey, chibi satoru's hands would look soo cute with a bracelet" → gives him a bracelet → "oh! what if sukuna had a matching one" → yay matching bracelets :D

i was later thinking about what purpose the bracelets could serve, and landed on: they're a physical binding vow.

essentially, in order to contain sukuna and prevent him from wreaking havoc (as they don't know what to do with him and try to think of ways to deal with him), they have him make a binding vow with satoru in which his powers get sealed/he can't kill/whatever (idk i haven't really decided on a specific thing, it depends on the situation.) in this, sukuna and satoru are unable to use their cursed techniques on each other so gojo can't keep him away with limitless, but at the same time, sukuna can't do any lasting or significant harm to satoru

and this vow is represented physically through the bracelets, (which they can't take off). so basically it's something akin to marriage rings, as it binds them both together :D

Keep getting Xena Warrior Princess vibes from the way that people keep constantly commenting on how they thought Stede would be *more attractive* based on Ed's emotional upheaval over him.

Like this is exactly how other characters treated Gabrielle, a constant "I just don't get what Xena sees in you."

What these characters don't get is how much Stede and Gabrielle see Ed and Xena respectively for who they are- the whole messy, chaotic, wonderful conglomeration of their self and love them unconditionally. They support them, coax out the warm and vulnerable and loving aspects of them.

They see past the horrific legendary myths of them to the real person beneath. They are warm. They are kind. They are weird and unabashedly themselves and they bring out that aspect in their partners as well. And that's why they hold such a special place in their lives.

Also they are attractive in their own right, physically attractive yes, but they also both have a fiery, commanding quality that comes out when pushed to it.

Also they keep filming on that same damn beach that they always filmed at in Xena and that makes me very happy. Me and my twin recognized it immediately from multiple multiple viewings of Xena.

I've been reading up on the laws that are on the ballot in my state and I realized that every single one starts with “Be it enacted by the people and by their authority” which is, apparently, a very common phrase in legal documents so I don’t know what it says about me that my first reaction to learning this was “Aww! That’s adorable!”
