i have seen (and agreed with) a lot of observations about phoenix's aa4 serious sprite resembling kristoph's and klavier's (miles's also) but honestly i feel like that's at least partially phoenix's own thing.
i know he's a sponge and i know aa loves to show visual evidence of influence and change through sprites, but... i feel like this sprite of his is only part perfectionism and more determination, which matches the close-up better than kristoph's sprites. the one with the cup only appears by the end of aa3 furthering the godot beanix parallels but whatever
also, my god. same >:( face, but the difference....
lucy is such a pretty side character, LOVE HER <33
Bet they're telling creepy camping stories!

If there's anything I've felt about ace attorney since playing through the original trilogy, it's how cheated I've felt about the fandom interpretation of it. Y'all were so caught up with your gay boys and your Miles Edgeworths I didn't realize how much of this game was about WOMEN. THE CORE OF ACE ATTORNEY IS IN ITS FEMALE CHARACTERS. From Mia jumpstarting Phoenix and guiding him throughout the whole trilogy even after her death, her presence being the primary connecter of Phoenix and Maya, Maya and Godot, heck even Dahlia and Iris and the whole lot of them. From Franziska's earnest faith and consolation of Miles Edgeworth, even begrudgingly, pulling him out the trauma of his childhood with the face to face confrontation of a bullet wound in the same spot as the man who killed his father. Lana and Ema dragging Phoenix back into the thing he does best. Lana and Ema who's tragic story lies in a pair of sisters ruined by the heinous law system and their unconditional love for each other. Dahlia and Iris with a different version of sisterly tragedy, struggling through generational trauma in separate settings and support systems. The matter of the Fey tradition looming over the entire narrative and all the legal and social terror that comes with it. CAN WE TALK ABOUT THE ACE ATTORNEY WOMEN.
This was their old dynamic trust
(just realized it says "but but" and honestly I can't get the lighting good enough to replace the og y'all are gonna have to deal with that)
Well damn, Nintendo really just threw the Nintendo Switch 2 reveal trailer out this morning with no flair or anything like
“Here it is, now stop leaking shit and stfu about it.”

THE QUEEN!! SHES BACK!!!!!!
I have headcanons regarding how poor Drayton's mental health actually is, and how his self-esteem is lower than a lot of people could ever expect. I don't feel like writing them at depth now, so for the time being here's a summary:
Drayton's upbringing caused a domino effect in his development, leading him to harboring an unpleasant blend of an inferiority complex and imposter syndrome. He became frighteningly good at masking it all under his facade, of being so coolheaded that hardly anything rattles him. Coping method goes brrrr.
any pronouns ig | I'll probably post about Tokyo debunkers, moomins and pokémon(maybe a little about good omens too)
