The truth about being an artist is that some of us aren't posting art to get a Lot of notes we're doing it to get notes from one or two specific mutuals like Gatsby throwing elaborate parties just to get a passing chance to see daisy. The green light mutuals if you will.
f/f rarepairs are not only acceptable, they are pivotal. you need to pick two random women who have barely if ever spoken to each other and you need to build an elaborate scenario where they have an impactful tryst. it's necessary.
like say what you will about madoka magica but fact of the matter is homura's magical girl weapon was a shield so she just started stealing guns from cops and that goes hard as hell. who else is doing that
"why does every zine i hear about end up like this" because you look for zines, you enjoy internet drama, so you only hear when there's drama. for every one zine that gets ruined by bad faith actors theres dozens that don't, theyre not on your radar.

a little ace attorney detail i am obsessed with is how the legal textbooks that exist in universe look like theyre for toddlers. there's nothing about this that isn't extremely good.
hyperfixation is so funny imagine having something wrong with your brain that manifests in an almost irresistible compulsion to draw the same handful of cartoon characters and this is just how you are for the next several years. like. okay sure why not.
if i could hit a button that would just mean all mcu content stopped being produced instantly i would hit it. i would hit it in a heartbeat. but more than that i would film myself hitting it and post it online so everyone would know it was me who did it. i want them to know.
one of my favorite little tidbits of ace attorney trivia is that sister bikini is so short because they ran out of space for larger assets on the gameboy cartridge. you can't get shit like that in the modern day
we need to put the sex stripe back on the flag. some people are getting way too comfortable. u dont have to have gay sex yourself if you're not inclined but you do have to be pro gay sex actually. thems the break.
And my 2nd card for
@aatarotdeck
, the 5 of wands! Affectionately dubbed this one my lawyer misery collage. i did around two dozen variants on this one before getting it where I wanted it
aa1 is objectively the best ace attorney game. this is mathematically provable because it has the highest word count of phoenix and edgeworth bitching at each other. and what other metric could you possibly be using to determine quality.
i feel like 2-1 is an underrated ace attorney case i feel like not enough people have truly appreciated how funny it is that phoenix got amnesia and just like halfheartedly tried to tell people but mostly just sort of let everyone tell him what to do
People need to realize that talking about headcanons on social media goes by improv rules. If you're not coming onto op's post to "yes and" them, at that point just go make your own thread
Don't be afraid to try again
Everyone goes south every now and then
You've done it
Why can't someone else?
You should know by now
You've been there yourself
a lot of people reacting this really showing their hands about how little they understand about the actual logistics of running a zine. this is an absolutely shameful breach of trust by a single individual, and no one wins by you berating the people left to clean up the mess.
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
Ree, our former head mod, has recently confessed to spending the remaining $27.6k CAD of zine funds on personal use. Ree has been entirely removed from the project.

A little drawing because it's my comic's second birthday today... happy two years of drawing ace attorney fanart like you'd think it's my job or something. woo!
one of the single biggest surprises upon playing ace attorney for the first time was realizing that these men were not middle aged. let alone that they weren't even, like, 30 yet.
I think one of my favorite style of ace attorney jokes is when maya and phoenix have a back-and-forth where she talks about wanting to do something, he gives her a shitty obvious joke suggestion, and then she's just like ok great idea !
im an ace attorney investigations 1 apologist. is it a poorly paced game thats kind of pointless in the grand scheme of the narrative with the only relevant plotline being dragged down by a lot of unmemorable side characters? yes. HOWEVER.
its so funny at the end of turnabout samurai when edgeworth says 'im a big fan of your work' to will powers and phoenix is sitting there thinking that he's full of absolute shit
played more aa4 w/ mom today
MOM: i see why you like trucy
ME: shes a magician. she likes crime. she has a weird codependent relationship with her dad.
MOM: you also have a codependent relationship with phoenix wright
professor layton vs phoenix wright daring to ask the important question of "what if someone noticed phoenix and maya just sort of like to steal shit and pointed that out in the middle of court"
i think posting phoenix saying it's almost christmas is a meme Within the ace attorney canon too. i think the grainy courthouse footage gets gifed and i think the lawyer rpf people (a thing that surely exists in this world) are all over that exactly how we are. i know this.
the ladder/stepladder debate in ace attorney is funny in and of itself but probably the funniest part about it is the fact that phoenix has never actually even Been on a step ladder because he's scared of heights. king why are you so invested in this one.
From the "Ace Attorney" series comes Nendoroids of Apollo Justice and Maya Fey! The rookie defense attorney and spirit medium are both up for preorder now, so preorder soon!

@YHKbook
! lets hear it for yoohankim nation. i wanted to draw a piece centered on lost childhood. it was a blast to work on this excellent project with everyone
The one thing you should never do when attempting to "fix" an Ace attorney character is make them looks more like a real human being that could exist. Do whatever else you want but the freak factor needs to stay.
@laquilasse
all of the ways i am instinctively inclined to reply to this art would get me banned from twitter for harassment. this is not an ok thing to post toni
it's so cute that phoenix wears a little locket with a picture of his daughter in, doubly cute that it's a locket he stole from the corpse of her murdered birth father and then wore in court while he was being charged With That Murder and lied about it. GOAT dilf antics.
near hysterical laughter on the stream today as i fully process for the first time that misty fey was a better positive figure in larry's life than either of her own children's. ace attorney rules

hold on now i need to go make a list of ace attorney characters ordered by who could set up a printer without crying or breaking something
i love apollo but in terms of ace attorney characters he has extremely little motivation or agency which means that he is at his best when he is being dragged into everyone else's obscene horseshit. he's the narrative whipping boy.
orv is like what if you were being tortured for eternity because someone loved you so so soooo much and you let them do it because you love them back but also you are like getting into youtube comment section arguments with each other. bisexually.
a trope ace attorney is tragically missing is 'series of events leads the protagonist to just needing to be responsible for a random baby for a little while.' i think it would improve the series to just have one case where whoever we're playing as needs to look after a baby.
i am so fucking sick of looking at this drawing and it will not upload for some reason if i have to see it for even three more seconds someones head is coming off
phoenix is like. he's like. i think if you stabbed him he'd bounce back from it in a couple of days but i think if he saw, like, a nat geo special where a baby seal was separated from its mother and eaten he'd be fucked up about it for at LEAST two weeks
It’s officially been a year since I posted the first QM pages! I’ve never drawn a longform comic in my life before and I am absolutely flattened by how supportive everyone has been. Thanks a ton! Can’t wait for you all to see the rest of what I’ve got planned.
aa5/6 are fake as hell for many reasons but mostly because when you're playing as phoenix you can't obsessively present his locket in the same way you present his badge. i know he would. 'could you take a look at this for me' as the opener to every convo and its his pic of trucy
the best part of narumitsu is that edgeworth 100% would have had phoenix sent to prison if he had been able to do it and it would have only barely ranked top ten in his Mistakes I Need To Kill Myself About list but phoenix was exactly unfuckwithable enough to marry him instead
i don't think apollo actually knows phoenix likes him until he meets edgeworth i think it goes down like this
edgeworth: mr. justice, it's a pleasure. wright mentions you frequently. I've heard lots of good things
apollo: from trucy?
edgeworth: yes, her too.
apollo: ???
capcom accidentally making it canon that sebastian and klavier went to high school together is so funny. klavier returns to the law after his break and the nepo baby who bought his grades is not only still in the field somehow, he is also a personal friend of klavier's boss.
what everyone who is celebrating not getting into homestuck doesn't know is that there's a 100% chance they were into something equally bad but significantly less fun and culturally impactful.
Ok theres a lot of truly excellent art in the professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright art book but the cream of the crop in unused stuff is this characters design who I can only surmise is a French cycling team captain who steals faces. Would kill to know the story here
god the ace attorney anime intros are really just so insane feeling. like. there's not a whole lot of Imagery to work with in ace attorney so it really just sort of feels like they had no idea what to do and the results are kind of delightful. highly recommend check them out.
Every time I remember that apollo is canonically taller than athena I get jump scared. Literally what are they talking about. That just simply isn't true
please read omniscient reader's viewpoint by sing shong to both cure whatever mental illness you are currently experiencing and replace it with brand new mental illness
i think we need to commit to imagining mia fey a little worse i think it would be feminist of us. statistically speaking she was just as much of a total wreck as the rest of the cast. mommy issues.
every now and then i remember that "So to love a man that you cannot bear to see a stain upon him, and to speak painful truth through loving words, that is friendship." is a quote they put with a drawing of phoenix looking poignantly at edgeworth's back in the fanbook and lose it
okay like yes the "unnecessary feelings" line isn't about any romantic feelings from edgeworth towards phoenix its about how edgeworth's feelings towards himself and the world have changed. which is if anything even more romantic.
1000% everyone phoenix went to college with remembers him as 'that guy with a kind of a lowkey stalker-y vibe who killed his girlfriend's ex and got away with it'
today i wore the phoenix wright heels out to brunch and it was a HUGE hit. our waitress was so delighted by my outfit that she brought another waitress over to look at it. win for the phoenix wright heels.
"why didnt they get a contract for the finances" simply put that's not a precedent. most projects make NOWHERE CLOSE to this amount of money. zines are hobbyist projects for artists. they know how to make stuff but familiarity w/ lawyers or contracts is out of scope to expect.
