"These long, lonely ten years..." | A sideblog for Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective brainrot, run by Raven (she/they, 20s).
pfp: mirrorfeeling | header: egophiliac
ghost trick is a video game that's about these questions: "when something bad happens to you, what do you do with that trauma?" and "when you do something terrible, when you make a terrible mistake, what do you do with that guilt?". it's about fate and family and hope and truth.
but, equally, crucially, it's also propaganda for the best little doggie in the whole world
I wanted to try designing a slightly older version of Kamila! Might be a canon-compliant continuation AU I have in mind lol
GHOST TRICK SPOILERS BELOW!
As Kamila grows up, she tries to understand the mystery of her kitten; for example, why is he still a kitten? After Lynne says that she first found the kitten in Temsik Park, Kamila starts her search there with with the girl next door, Amelie!
Together, Amelie and Kamila will try to uncover the secrets of Temsik Park that her father, a criminal, a dog, and her kitten have tried so hard to keep hidden.
Behold: the list! More than 150 prompts ripe for the taking! Now everyone can pick something cool (even if you didn’t submit anything) (no need to claim it anywhere) and start drawing it or writing it or any other creative verb of your liking. Next stop: June 19th, when we’ll all post together to celebrate GT’s original anniversary (there will be a reminder with brief posting instructions).
Prompts are numbered for your convenience, in the order they came in. The block divisions are just because tumblr gets twitchy about long numbered lists. Full rules here.

RandomK- I'm curious about the first timeline. Tell the journy of how Missile got to the Yonoa after failing to save his girls.
RandomK:- In the first timeline Sissel leaves Missile In the junkyard. What did our favorite ghost cat get up to on his own that timeline?
RandomK:- Ray knows a lot about Sissels Ghost Trick abilities. What would a teamup between Sissel and Missel in the first timeline be over and how long would it last?
RandomK:- In the first timeline, what if Missile sucessfully saved Cabenela. What would their partnership look like?
RandomK:- what if after time traveling Missile got the attention of Yomiel and Sissel that fateful day in the park? What would their friendship look like?
RandomK:- Cabenela died to Yomiel, who was carrying a Temsik. Could he have been able to use Ghost Tricks? What would his be?
RandomK:- Say the Curry Man and the Punk Rocker had escaped from prison? What comes next for them?
RandomK:- AU where the plot kicks off because Kamilia saw her friend get taken by strangers. When she calls Lynne about it, the newely minted detective decides that her dinner can wait. She needs to investigate! -Or, where a simingly simple kidnapping investigation, is the thread that unraveles the foreigners plot.
diathadevil - Post-canon Sissel (ghost or human form), being upset over finding Lynne dead once again, which leads to them arguing and realizing how much the past affected them and Lynne's deaths affected Sissel. Reconciliation may or may not happen at your choice, we're here for the angst and drama.
diathadevil - Art of FianSissel wearing your favorite outfit! Could be from your own closet, or an outfit you've saved that's your fav. (Bonus if Yomiel is there reacting at her fit)
diathadevil - Memry drinking with Lynne as they're commiserating, and mayhaps even flirting together and smooching too I mean what who said that.
intervalart - Jowd being a good dad, interacting with his family, being happy/supportive. If you do angst, plz let it have a happy ending.
intervalart - Post canon Yomiel and Jowd hangin' out. Bein' cane/disability pals and sharing an emotional support cat.
intervalart - Jowd with an emotional support Shiny Spheal (pokemon). I kinda headcanon that would be like a therapy animal for him in jail if pokemon were a thing in that universe, cuz it would be round and pinkish like Kamila's hair, and when it evolves into Walrein, it's pink and has the same hair shape that he does, and is pink like his painter's smock. In fact Jowd with any stage of the Shiny Spheal line would be cool. Pokemon trainer Jowd? I'm not picky lol.
intervalart - Jowd and Cabs butting heads as they're working on the job. Can be pre or post canon; funny, angst, or both.
intervalart - Alma catching on that things are amiss post-canon. Maybe cheeky one-sided conversation with her and Sissel, and Sissel is thinking about what she's saying the whole time. Can be played for laughs, angst, or both.
intervalart - Cabanela/Junkyard Super. Maybe a late night at the office; reminiscing about Jowd, discussing findings about the Manipulator, Soops talks about radiation and sciencey stuff that Cabs doesn't get. Cabs does some of his flowery bs, Soops just cuts right through it; disarmingly so. Good old fashioned old man yaoi like the gods intended (obviously keep it sfw)
any of the cast with their mii / tomodachi life counterparts
man in red tricking objects but its that one levitating pizza with your mind meme
sissel accidentally calling yomiel dad + their reactions
sissel trying to read gullible on the celling (he cant pfft)
sissel keep bothering fiansissel or alma cooking, knowing damn well he can't eat anymore
yomiel painting his fiancee when he's in jail (maybe sissel is also in the painting)
raisa-drawz - [Detective in Black]/sissel human image and lynne trying to solve a case
Reefflux - Yomiel being a cat dad, either pre-game or post-game! Can be happy or sad.
Reefflux - Hugs! Cabanela/Jowd/Yomiel/Lynne/Sissel, anybody really!! These people just need some hugs. Happy hugs, sad hugs, all the hugs.
Jobswaps! Programmer Amelie? Rockstar Pigeon Man? Novelist Jowd? All of the above, none of the above, you get the gist.
(art) Steampunk it up. AU? Just a hobby? Whatever works!
Danganronpa AU, ages and species adjusted if necessary. Who's the Ultimate at what? Can Sissel change the fate of every victim in a killing game?
The gang has a night at the casino. Chaos ensues, of course.
Missile getting as loved on as he deserves.
Jowd & Yomiel, platonic, talking through their issues or finding solace in each other's presence, or just hanging out together, whatever floats your boat.
Yomiel and Sissel (cat). Any timeline or genre goes.
Yomiel & Fiansissel. Ideally something sweet and fluffy.
Any combination of Jowd, Alma, Cabanela, polyamory is welcome. No infidelity, please.
Bailey and co-worker shenanigans. Can be romantic or platonic.
sunnyaliceart - Cabanela wearing a pink coat like a flamingo or any other color of the rainbow
sunnyaliceart - Yomiel babysitting Cat Sissel and Missile. Bonus points if Yomiel is using mobility aids like a wheelchair or cane
sunnyaliceart - Jowd, Alma, and Cabanela taking Lynne and Kamila to a fair, maybe riding a ferris wheel together
sunnyaliceart - Kamila playing with Missile, Cat Sissel and Lovey Dove. She's the animal whisperer
sunnyaliceart - Jowd asking Cat Sissel to look after Kamila on her first day of high school. Hijinks ensue. Up to you if Kamila knows about Sissel's ghost powers or not
sunnyaliceart - Lynne and Kamila clothes shopping with Missile and Cat Sissel
sunnyaliceart - Jowd being great at ice skating, but Cabanela surprisingly is terrible at it
sunnyaliceart - Pigeon Man and Kamila bonding over engineering. Lovey Dove and Cat Sissel hanging out while they infodump
azurefishnets - Worldbuilding fic! There are so many things about this world they live in that are so interesting! There are robots! There are ghosts! There’s some kind of cold war??? There are tiny submarines that can be run by only ten crewmen! My suggestion: pick a location and a couple of characters and put them in a Situation there. See what worldbuilding develops from there!
azurefishnets - Emma & Memry. When the odd girl who always gets what she wants comes up against the Justice Minister's wife in pursuit of opposing ends (you decide what those ends are), how will they form some sort of unholy alliance?
azurefishnets - Amelie & Lynne (& MIssile?). Surely they have run into each other previously while living in the same apartment complex. What do they think of each other? What happens if Lynne happens to catch Amelie in the middle of throwing one of her legendary tantrums? Or engineer a missing moment during the in-game timeline!
azurefishnets - Emma & Kamila. Not certain they know the deeper meanings of who one is to the other, but I'm so curious how Emma's curiosity/principles would handle a small, sad little girl living next to her precious angel. Or engineer a missing moment during that night where they do actually meet!
azurefishnets - Alma & Emma: Alma’s job has been the source of much speculation and I like to think she’s a secret cat burglar who is hired to test security at various important places, so here’s the prompt: Alma is hired to test security at the Justice Minister’s compound as a fake cat burglar, and runs afoul of Emma in some way. They probably know each other, distantly, so how will Alma manage to finish the job with reputation intact? Will Emma pass the security test? Will the Justice Minister ever recover?
azurefishnets - pet swap! Put a pet with a person and let some magic happen. What would have happened if Emma had a Lovey-Dove to help her write? What if Missile was hanging out with Rindge that fateful night? What if Sith had a pet rat instead of his adjutant? Just some of the many possibilities!
azurefishnets - Alma/Cabanela/Jowd (or any /& subset therof) - Always and forever the OT3 of my heart, and I will happily devour anything that develops any facet of their happy poly triangle relationship (but please no infidelity). I love these three together, or doing things with just one of the others, but always with the knowledge that they are a threesome at heart, you know?
azurefishnets - forever free square for the FFVI/GT AU! For information on the premise and previous works see: https://archiveofourown.org/series/1196335 https://archiveofourown.org/series/1169099
