and summore
I’m playing The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles and have gotten to Ep. 5. Here are my predictions:
‘Benedict’ (if that’s really his name) will be murdered, and Gina will be the prime suspect.
And let those who lived longer than they should’ve mourn.
Let Faruzan stare at Sumeru city, comparing it to the one she once knew. Faruzan should struggle dealing with how things have changed. She should search for records of her friends, her classmates, and even just acquaintances in order to learn what happened to them. Faruzan cries at night over the loved ones who died thinking they would never see them again. Let her blame herself for not solving that puzzle quick enough.
Let Olaf from Mondstaht confuse people for his friends from decades ago. Let all his jokes fall flat because they only made before anyone was born. Let him be awkward around Diona and Draff, the kin he lives with, who don’t really know him and only took him in out of pity and his connection to him through blood. Let him be terrified of the cold and ice and snow, because he doesn’t want to wake up in a different time again. Let him wake up in a Springvale that’s comfortably familiar yet terrifying foreign to him at the same time. Let him rely on the bottle to drown out his misery, ignoring the displeasure of his great great… Diona when he does so. Let him find comfort in a well dressed bard who gets his jokes, who understands his stories like he was there, who has wisdom well beyond his years, who feels like an dream when he wakes up the next morning, hangover hitting him hard.
Let those characters find each other one day, and share a drink as they can relate to each other’s struggles. Let them understand how they miss the world they had left behind, and are constantly reminded of every day. Let Faruzan and Olaf mourn together.
let immortal characters in genshin be horrifying. they're not human and people should recognize that!! it's way more interesting if they don't feel normal
venti forgets to breathe, sometimes. he doesn't need to - he is the air around them. his eyes are just a little too vivid if you look at him directly. he doesn't bleed when he should and he doesn't sleep, either.
xiao stays away from liyue harbor. he doesn't want to corrupt them with his karma, and he doesn't want to frighten them, either. he knows what he looks like: too-gold eyes with too-slitted pupils, ears too pointed and fangs too sharp to be human. if you look at him in the corner of your eye, black and green and red dance across his skin and reach out to you.
ei has never learned to be human. her eyes are blinding and electricity crackles over her skin. the puppet she inhabits has too-smooth skin, porcelain clear and cold to the touch. she moves too quickly, too sharply, like a bolt of lightning that cannot slow down.
zhongli forgets human customs. he speaks of events from thousands of years ago like they were yesterday and talks in long-dead languages. to be under his gaze while solidifying a contract is to feel the weight of millennia upon your back. he makes no sound when he walks and yet his steps can shake the ground.
I’m not going to fact check what I’m saying and this is mainly just speculation, but I noticed something’s that could make things more interesting.
spoilers for Chapter 3 of course
I think Dr. Yonekura was a neglectful mother towards her daughter Okazaki, and didn’t care about her and only worried about how Okazaki’s behavior reflected onto herself.
One thing that the video Regulation Review made clear about their relationship is that Yonekura doesn’t care about Okazaki. I think this is also shown in how Okazaki viewed her ‘rival’ Tsuno.
Okazaki stated that she wanted to kill Tsuno because Tsuno refused to acknowledge Okazaki and acted like she didn’t know her. She was dismissive and acted like she didn’t care about Okazaki until Okazaki started hurting Wada.
I think Okazaki was neglected by her mother, and now hates when people ignore her. Yonekura only cared about Okazaki when she said that Okazaki made a fool of herself.
Okazaki probably started to act out so her mother would acknowledge her and would give her attention, even if that attention was negative. When Tsuno, someone she thought she had a twisted connection with ignored Okazaki like how Yonekura did? Well Okazaki couldn’t just take this injustice.
I’m not saying this excuses Okazaki of all her actions. She’s a horrible person who doesn’t care about others unless it involves herself. But she is so interesting to me and I want to know why she acts like this. Or well, acted like that.
TLDR: Yonekura was a neglectful mother and ignored Okazaki. She would only give her daughter attention when Okazaki did something that made her look bad. Okazaki started doing bad stuff to get her mother’s attention, and then somehow got tangled up with Tsuno and got the idea that they were “rivals”. (Still don’t know about that). When Tsuno ignored Okazaki, she saw that as a personal attack and started acting out in a way that would get Tsuno’s attention, just like she did with her mother Yonekura.
Lolz-
Im not too sure about Makoto being the kind boy you make him out to be. In the prologue when he first meets Taka, he thinks, "This guy is...kind of annoying."
i really do appreciate the absolute tonal whiplash from how thh centers around the kindest, sweetest, friendliest boy who sees the good in everyone . and sdr2 introduces the ultimate hater
So uh...surprise, I guess. I was the lucky person who featured in @k3itar0-with-a-three's latest Tetro trial reaction!
I had a blast getting to react to this with him, despite how heart-shattering that trial was.
Hama Ran, may you rest in peace you badass lad 🙏 🥺
Here's the link if you haven't seen it already. Please enjoy our collective suffering as we attempt to maintain our sanity throughout the rollercoaster of emotions that was this trial 👍

Inverted Rengoku from my Inverted Demon Slayer au. He is a quiet man with a permanent frown etched into his face. Rengoku is incredibly skilled Hashira, but hidden behind his talents is a mind filled with dark desires that he doesn't express. After all, it would be scandalous if the corps discovered that a Hashira wanted to become a demon.
This. This is everything. Aoyama desperately wants to share his pain with someone. He wants the pressure of protecting his parents lifted off his shoulders, but can’t take the first step to do so out of fear. He wants someone to reach out to him, to confront him, because he doesn’t have the courage to put himself. He sees Midoriya as just that. He thinks that if he leaves enough clues, Midoriya will piece it together and confront him, and Aoyama can finally be freed from the guilt of being a traitor.
But Midoriya doesn’t piece it together. He trusts his classmates so much. It would take undeniable proof right in front of his face to realize that his classmate is a traitor. Combine his trusting nature with his Classmates’ advice, and he mistakes Aoyama’s clues as hints of a crush.
And when these two polarizing perspectives finally confront each other, Aoyama once again doesn’t have the heart to tell the truth.
Uh oh…. I thought about them too long…
Star crossed unwilling traitor with the chosen one?? And no one’s tried it??
Okay guys there were a million and one "Saving Dogay" AUs now we need three million "Saving Doey" AUs, stat.
