Dear Eway,

Mario Kart Wii, of course.

A Von Karma is perfect in every way. Even when it comes to racing on the perilous Rainbow Road.

Gimme some Ricken!Owain headcanons since you also ship Ricken and Lissa (or was that another Emblem Tumblr person?)

no that was definitely me, or at the very least i am one of them! as for headcanons it’s hard to imagine owain being any different than he is, but i think when he was growing up ricken actually encouraged his antics! i think once he’s an adult ricken realizes he was trying to grow up way too fast, and he doesn’t want that for owain, to the point that owain ends up going a little too far in the other direction sometimes. they don’t have quite the same dynamic when owain travels back to the past, especially since they’re basically the same age there, but they’re still very close; they both know very well how it feels to be dismissed and underestimated by enemies and allies alike, so they lean on each other when it gets rough.

I just found this! What's Batsu Omori?

My Tsumi to Batsu AU's Omori!! oh, i should explain the au's name. it's japanese for "sin and punishment" hehe

Long story short, the AU's premise is that after the events of the good ending, Headspace catches up to reality's time, 4 years passing by in it. So as an extension, the same goes for Omori, making him the same age as Sunny (which is approximately 16 iirc)

The AU's story takes place in the form of a fanfic I've been writing, Yurushite! And its character study-turned-prequel, Gomenasai. You can check that series out on my AO3 here. It's...practically a watered-down sequel to the game at this point, with how much I have planned...

As for Omori himself, he's a lot different than in canon because listening to (and bearing witness) to the Final Duet got him to basically realize that he's uh. A scumbag. Who's only really hurt not only his dream friends but also Sunny. Badly.

And that messed him up quite a lot!! So now he's really regretful, and sad, and pathetic, and oh god someone give him a hug please

I go a lot more in depth about that here.

A fellow Fates fan AND a fellow Camilla x Takumi shipper?!

WOOOOOOOOOOO

(Though in Conquest I ship Camilla and Benny and Birthright Takumi x Oboro)

Yep! I'll probably never stop saying this but the funny thing is, I don't even like Takumi, while I adore Camilla, but they just make a very good couple imo XD And their supports are cute and hilarious. Takumi acting like a flustered schoolboy was just too good.

Although despite having 3000+ hours in Fates, I've played Conquest only once, and I've never had Takumi S-support Oboro-

Mayro art commissions! If their cheap I'll commission multiple! If their expensive, I'll commission one. Either way I'll reblog your prices so others know

Aaa Thank you so much! ❤️ I'll see if I can come up with some reasonable prices this weekend 🍄🥹

Dear Eway4,

Nothing. I thought it was a remote control. I wished to turn on the weather.

Dear Kevin James,

Chief Mod Edgeworth:

I could see that in a fan comic, though there already are mangas of Ace Attorney that aren't canon. I suppose it wouldn't be impossible. I would read it regardless of if it were a fan comic or an official manga.

Co-Mod: I'm a lot more familiar with anime than manga, so I don't know how good or bad that would look (though I guess that would mostly depend on the skill and talent of the writer), but I'm open to the idea. That being said, it reminds me a little too much of a certain despairful video game/anime series, so to answer your second question...probably not.

Mod Zieks: I love the idea. Love it so much. Tbh I'm more of an anime person than manga, but if it was manga exclusively, I'd be all over that.

Dear Minnesotamermaid71,

Chief Mod Edgeworth: You can try doing it on another device or web browser. Otherwise, I don't know what the issue is. You should be able to click on it and it will take you to the Youtube link.

Dear Robottiye,

Chief Mod Edgeworth: I don't know. I doubt there's going to be much difference outside of maybe higher graphics and stuff.

Mod Zieks: Yes, I do have some plans to use it! (For evil.)

Dear Anonymous,

Chief Mod Edgeworth: The recent ones seem like they're asked because they're funny? Otherwise I have no idea.

Mod Zieks: It's the internet, where people can be as anonymous as they want. It's to be expected (unfortunately.)

Dear Askrikkaiandhyotei,

Chief Mod Edgeworth:

I know. This was made two years ago and the answers were pointed out in the comments right here.

Dear Eway4,

Chief Mod Edgeworth: This also shows the possibility that Franziska has an older brother too. She may have an older sister and brother. Manfred von Karma is... what? 65 according to Ace Attorney wiki? He'd have been 48 when Franziska was born, which already leaves over two decades and a half for Manfred von Karma to have two, three, even five other kids. That would depend on when he was married, but I think you get the point and no I don't think he has five other kids.

Personally, I think it could go either way. I have created OC's as part of the von Karma family that includes Franziska, an older brother and an older sister. Both have kids and while one owns a dog named Phoenix, it is shared by the two siblings since he considers it a family pet.

I did find this interesting. I suppose it shouldn't be any surprise that the grandchild didn't originally have a gender. Now, I'm curious what the original translation of the credit card pin number comment was.

Dear Charicla,

Chief Mod Edgeworth: Ace Attorney mostly, but I also have Tetris, Project Makeover, Wordscape, Gardenscape, Lilly's Garden, Happy Match Cafe, Solitaire, Island Hoppers, Love Paradise, Winked and Traffic Escape.

Basically, puzzle games, classics, makeover and a dating sim.

Dear Dawsongfg,

Chief Mod Edgeworth: Spiders? You're talking to someone who used to pick up Daddy Longlegs from the corner of the basement window and drop them in a well.

Co-Mod: I answered that letter, so it doesn't scare me a whole lot, but...that was still a jerk move. 😒

Mod Zieks: Love spiders. They go great with sprite, and maybe crickets as well.

Dear Anonymous,

Chief Mod Edgeworth: It kinda is? I don't know what you're referring to or if it's to any letters. If so, you need to link the letters you're talking about or I'm going to be so confused.

I will say that we only know their ages in each game, being it is revealed in their profile. Outside of that or any official canon B-Days that are revealed in the game or something such as Rayfa's birthday, we can only speculate when it may be. If anyone wants to wish a character a Happy Birthday during any random day, they may and we will recognize it as such.

Dear Anonymous,

Chief Mod Edgeworth: We do insert headcanons as a way to fill in the blank so to speak, since some questions to the characters are not explained or answered in the game. As such, we will use headcanons that will add but not change canon.

As for the previous letters, those were from former mods that no longer work here. Just like Kristoph being a part of the Gavinners was a headcanon to add but not break canon, so was theirs. The game never showed Kristoph claiming he wasn't fond of the genre or only tolerated Klavier's music. That was likely based off of Apollo's and Ema's feelings for Klavier's music of not being fond. Mine of Kristoph being a part of the Gavinners was mostly to answer a question if he was, but I also think it makes sense being that Klavier looks up to his brother and I find it would be something interesting for Kristoph.

Dear A Concerned Asker,

Chief Mod Edgeworth: I don't? Hell, I've answered asks to Klavier and Jake hinting that they swing both ways and I've had Edgeworth once come out as Asexual. Not to mention we recognize Aura Blackquill x Metis Cykes as a canon one-sided ship. Whether Metis returned the feelings is up for interpretation. Outside of that, the only "straight" ships that are canon we recognize is Godot x Mia and maybe Phoenix x Iris. We do not count Apollo's date with Maya, because that was a one time Valentines Day shtick and the other ships we do not count as canon, straight or not. You might get a character or two finding someone attractive (you might be lucky enough to have Klavier admit to finding Apollo attractive) or having one character asking another on a date that is convincing enough, but that's it.

If you're talking about past letters from four or five years ago, maybe more, that’s likely from Co-Mod and maybe Modot. Can’t say. I know Modot did say he hated certain slash ships because of the fandom at the time and Co-Mod felt awkward in answering yaoi/yuri letters, so he avoided them altogether. However, I will gladly answer slash/yaoi/yuri letters and I recognize when LGBTQ+ is canon. I do ship Wrightworth, AsoRyuu and BaroAso, so I do endorse yaoi.

That being said, I do understand where Co-Mod and Modot are coming from. It isn’t that they believe all characters are straight, but that it wouldn’t be IC for say Phoenix to fall in love with Edgeworth when he had been into Iris from the start. From Modot’s perspective, Phoenix and Maya made better sense before DD and SOJ came about. The AA trilogy did seem to have NaruMayo as the canon endgame in mind and Modot seems like a canon shipper. I was a canon shipper for the longest time back when I was in High School full of gay and bisexual students, so I can tell you that preferring straight over gay ships has nothing to do with it.

As for Co-Mod, he had never met someone that was gay outside of his uncle, so it was more that he didn’t know or was inexperienced with how to answer slash letters. It’s changed since I became mod and especially after taking over as the head mod. He's even started answering some slash letters recently.

I know you’re not trying to accuse anyone of anything, but it does feel a little accusatory. Not only are there multiple mods, as you’ve stated, but there have been changing of the Heads over the years. Modot was the first, then Modthorne, Co-Mod and now me. That’s why you need to look at which mod is answering letters. If it’s “The Mod,” he’s no longer here and doesn’t apply to the current mods. If it’s Co-Mod, he’s retired and no longer runs the place. As far as I can recall, many of us do endorse certain noncanon ships, most of them yaoi, and we recognize if characters are canonly gay or at least into the same sex.

Co-Mod: Yeah, I'd say that about sums it up. I was raised to believe that men are made for women and women are made for men (and while my mind could be changed, I haven't seen much evidence disproving that idea), but even if that weren't the case, I hadn't seen very many same-sex relationships, real or fictional, so I wouldn't have been able to portray them accurately, which is why I avoided them. Call it whatever you want, but I was just playing it safe. In any case, we now have several Mods who are more willing to address the topic, so it looks like we've found what appears to be a workable solution.

Dear eway,

Maya's still a little young to leave home, but I plan on visiting both her and Diego at some point during the Holidays. Visiting family and friends has always been my favorite part of Christmas.

(Would she and Diego get along well? I don't if I can trust him not to get frisky with me in front of her...)
