Ace Begging preview (Ace x F!Reader)

“You’re doing so good for me baby,”

I murmured against the warm skin of Ace’s abs, swiping my tongue against his salty skin as another one of his moans filled the quiet room; one of his hands buried in my hair pushing my mouth closer to his body as the other was gripping the bedspread. Nipping at his sharp V-line, I couldn’t help but let my hands wander to cup his bulge as another shaky moan spilled from his plush lips as he pressed his hips up to chase after my hand. Licking along every dip and stopping to suck a hickey every couple of inches until I made it to the waistband of his boxers, letting my tongue slip underneath it as he tugged on my hair a little harder, another whimper falling from him.

“Please sweetness, please.” Ace’s deep voice always sent a wave of heat through me, but when he was begging? That could bring anyone to their knees to do anything and everything he asked of them. 

“Please what baby?” I moved my hand off of his bulge to tug the waistband down to lick another stripe as he arched his back. I continued to pull off his boxers, freeing his thick cock to slap against his stomach; the flushed red tip extremely shiny with all the precum that had been leaking from all of the kissing and licking I’ve been doing.

“God, you’re so beautiful baby. I can't wait to show you how much I missed you."

Being aroace is so much easier when you're a kid. For one, no one bats an eye when you groan at a boring, unnecessary romantic plot in the show/movie you're watching (especially one that feels rushed) and two, no one ever judges you when you turn away when a sex scene comes on in a show/movie, in fact, you're expected to do those things. But when you get into you're teens and adult years and you do those things, people treat you like you're either the delicate, innocent little flower, or like there's something wrong with you. And frankly it is beyond annoying.

The end of a fandom fixation is such a bittersweet feeling. It’s like a fever breaking; you were in the throes of it for a year, two years, however many, it’s all you think about, you want to discuss it and create for it and relate everything back to it, it’s the constant running background noise of your brain. And then something happens or maybe nothing happens. And one day you realize that you don’t really care like that anymore. You don’t feel the desire to check the Tumblr tag or keep up with the AO3 tag and the fan conversations spinning ideas about it don’t give you the urge to join in. You sit down to your fanfic WIPs and don’t really see the point. You’re looking forward to the next installment but don’t feel the need to Do Fandom about it. It’s gone from your Fandom back to a thing you just like.

Are you pro or anti 3 in 1 shampoo?

"Um... odd question... but, while I wouldn't exactly say I'm 'anti', I vastly prefer not using it. I mean, it might be cheaper and more convenient, but my hair deserves the best, you know?"

I don’t know if this is a controversial hot take or something a lot of people feel, but I’m tired of hearing people unironically describe Ace Attorney as being “about gay lawyers”. Because it’s not. Do the lawyers act gay? Yes. But that’s not what 99% of the playtime is about.

At the end of the day, Ace Attorney is a satirical story about the corrupt justice system in Japan as represented by a kind-hearted defense attorney protecting (mostly) innocent defendants from having their lives ruined by misguided prosecutors. Its goal was to flip the cultural narrative that defense attorneys are trashy scum who make money off of sympathizing with criminals. And they did this through episodic, goofy murder mysteries.

So where does the gay come in? They wrote some accidentally romantically-charged dialogue, fans were obsessed, and the writers decided, yeah it’s pretty good, let’s do more of that. So they proceeded to toss in more gay side-banter and whatnot amongst the homicide investigations and court sessions.

Now, it’s not like Ace Attorney is the deepest, most poetic social commentary ever written, but it still has a meaningful theme inspired by a real life issue, so it’s pretty discouraging seeing people either not process it or straight up ignore it in favor of “the gay lawyers”. And that’s not even getting into all the other meaningful, non-romantic character relationships that have way more presence in the plot.

I know there will always be uncritical, shipping-brained people in every fandom, but what gets me about how bad it is here is that people who only know as much about AA as what they’ve heard really think it’s “about gay lawyers”. I was watching Drawfee recently, and genuinely all they know about the games is contextualized by Karina’s gay lawyer ship art and brief plot description of how gay the lawyers are. My friend recently told my other friend that Ace Attorney is about gay lawyers to which he was like oh yeah I heard about the unnecessary feelings scene. This is all he knows about the games.

I don’t want to make this sound like a bigger deal than it is, but damn. It truly feels like a lot of people refuse to engage with media in any way that doesn’t involve smashing male characters together like dolls. If you comb through the entirety of the Ace Attorney franchise, you’ll see that such a small fragment of everything that happens is homosexual law, yet that’s the thing that gets amplified to ridiculous proportions. All I can do for now is focus on the posts from fans that love the games themselves just as much if not more than they love the ships.

Y'know I feel like I'm the only one on the planet who enjoys video games because they LOOK FUN. Like I'm SUPER excited for the new Assassin's Creed: Shadows game, and all I see is people bitching about the graphics (which like, this game isn't out until November??), or the length being possibly too long (which boggles my mind... I pay 80-90$ CAD for PS5 games... if I can get a game to last me 200 hours, that's money well-spent to me??), or the voice acting??? But no one, and I mean NO ONE ever says "that game looks fun".

I have never played a Star Wars game ever. But the new Outcasts game?? It looks fun, I WANT to play it! I don't care about frame rates... I care about "can I put more than 50 hours into this game? and enjoy it".

I remember when Sonic Frontiers came out, and I was SO excited, but everyone bitched about the pop-in and "it looks unfinished". But like... can I run across an entire map at super-sonic speed and have a blast doing it?? YEP. I love Sonic Frontiers.

The new Dragon Age trailer came out. People are bitching about the graphics in that. Uhmmm what?? It looks fun as hell. I'm pumped for Veilguard.

I dunno. Sorry, I'm just super upset because like, I was SO excited watching the Ubisoft Forward yesterday, and then I made the mistake of scrolling down to the chat. Everyone shat on all the games that looked fun that were single player, but got excited for the same old BS multiplayer, live-service, COD-clone, FPS snorefest games! Ugh. Single player games are the shiz! I've put 253 hours into the Witcher 3. 227 into Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen, 61 hours into Sea of Stars!!! Because I had a blast and I don't want them to end!! (Valhalla is still my record at over 450 hours LOL)

I get it, gamers are passionate. I'm passionate about games too!! I just often wonder when people stopped enjoying games because they're fun and instead want to essentially spend 90$ on a movie. *shrugs* Meh. Whatevs.

Sorry, I needed to vent because I feel so alone in my love of video games JUST because they're fun. Anyone else love AC because it's AC??? I've played both the new and old games, and I love all of them because they were FUN.

Aside from possibly attending a(n unrelated) protest in the evening

Do you folks have any suggestions what one could do to celebrate “anti-valentines”?

I might just treat myself to cake if I find nothing better

I don’t have friends who I could spend a “palentine’s day” with and while I’m sort of a romo aro (and certainly partnering aro), I’m in a mood to stick it to the system recently

(That last but feels so silly but no clue how to word it differently)

I will be wearing one of my aro pride hoodies, definitely, and I do have green hair 😁

And I might post some alterous/ queerplatonic pining on my writing sideblog but that’s not relevant

💚💛🧡💙

Being ace has never been a question for me. I didn’t get the maybe I’m wrong feeling that a lot of people seem to. 15!year old me saw my friend gushing about her new crush went well that looks exhausting and anoying. How bout I just don’t :/ and then I didn’t! Nearly 20 years later and I’m still very firmly ace lol. Never had a single doubt about it

[theradicalace]

i hate going through art slumps so much. like wdym i barely want to draw and i don't like anything i make and i get radio silence from half the places i share my art to these days and and and

[xamaxenta]

Bc i never plan my art unless its for a zine idk how to further proceed w that gym piece i never intended for it to have a background but i felt called out by the post that mentioned the things artists who dont draw bgs/dont often draw bgs do and i didnt wanna just post another Ace art of him standing in a void but now i have to adjust the colours and most modern gyms are like greyscale with one highlight colour and its driving me insaneeeee

[forlibcrty]

if they don't stop open worlding my narrative series i'm going to start hunting ubisoft execs for sport

[samglyph]

Don’t get me wrong I love the positivity in my nice curated online spaces but sometimes I do get really scared that my queerness combined with the rest of me is going to make me end up alone

[ace-of-hearts-and-spades]

College classes start back tomorrow and I have to wake up at fucking 7:30 a.m.

[just-a-little-hater]

I'm convinced these two are the same guy, actually

ID: First image is a sprite of Larry Butz from Ace Attorney, he's a young man with a goatee and light brown that's styled into big spikes pointing up. He's smirking with his head slightly tilted and wearing a bright orange suit jacket and a white t-shirt. The second image is of Karube Daikichi from Alice in border land, he's also a young man with a hint of thin beard and short bleached hair. He's wearing a bright orange shirt with a decorative print over a deep blue t-shirt. /End ID
