im intrigued by cars 2 as a comfort movie bc cars 2 is how i met my best friend

Okay so there’s a story actually.

I loved the first Cars movie. When I heard there was a sequel, I was ecstatic. My parents made plans with my mom’s best friend and her husband to take all of us kids to go see it. It was going to be me, and my mom’s friend’s two daughters and one son.

We meet at their house because my mom’s friend and her husband don’t drive, so we were gonna carpool to the theater. I should have guessed something was wrong when we only took the Trailblazer (seats 5) instead of two vehicles when there were 8 people total.

We get there, and my mom sends me inside to let them know we’re here, and I do so, and I am all ready to go see this movie. My mom’s friend, her husband, and their son go out to the car, which is now full. I realize the problem.

They had not counted on the girls (I wasn’t aware that nonbinary was a thing you could be at that age lol) wanting to see the movie and had only brought one car. I watched the car pull out of the driveway with tears in my eyes. I was inconsolable as they left me at my friends’ house and went to see the movie without me.

I inform my mother that this was unacceptable when she returns. She should have known that I wanted to see that movie. Aside from the fact that I had explicitly told her yes I want to see this movie, I watched Cars on DVD all the time. I watched NASCAR with my stepdad (I liked Kyle Busch bc he had all the Mars candy sponsorships, and I liked M&Ms and my stepdad HATED him so I doubled down and got posters and stuff for my bedroom walls). And it was a spy movie????? Of course I wanted to see it! Her response: “I thought you would rather hang out with the girls, and they didn’t want to go see it.”

I love them both and I do not blame them for this travesty at all but fuck my lifelong best friends! I wanted to see Cars 2!

Unfortunately, we had waited until it was almost out of theaters to see it when tickets were cheap, so there wasn’t time to take me to see it before it left theaters. This objectively mediocre sequel to a movie about sentient vehicles became my forbidden fruit. I had to see it. Unfortunately, I was *checks year this movie came out* 13 years old and did not have stable income or a way to transport myself to the theater before the movie left theaters.

Finally, the day comes that Cars 2 releases on-demand on our cable package. This was before the DVD release, but after it had left theaters. I approach my mother with this information, and she agrees to purchase it on-demand, once.

This is my chance. I may not have gotten to see it on the big screen, but we never bought movies on demand. We were lucky if we got to rent something from Redbox for a dollar on Saturday and then hurry to return it before church on Sunday so we wouldn’t get charged extra. This was big. My mom knew she had fucked up, and she was performing her acts of penance in a last ditch bid for my new-teenager mercy. The dynamic is changing, and this is her chance to get back on my good side.

I am glued to the screen the whole time. It was broad daylight and sometimes it was hard to make out the screen because the way our house was built the sun was facing the east so around 10 am every day you could not see the TV unless you closed the curtains and my family said no I couldn’t do that it was a beautiful day and I needed sunlight for my health.

When the movie ends and the credits roll, I get on the family computer (I will not own my own device capable of running iTunes until Christmas of that year) and purchase two songs from the soundtrack with my last $3 in iTunes gift cards. I am appeased.

That Christmas I got the DVD and now I make a habit of watching it every year on my birthday. I think it’s hilarious. I can recite it from memory. My friends are confused and bewildered. I will forever mourn not getting to see it in theaters. I think I legitimately feel worse about missing Cars 2 in theaters than I do about not getting to see Promare in theaters bc Promare is becoming a cult classic and will probably come back to theaters at some point but I know that no one in their right mind would ever put on another theatrical release of Cars 2.

In hindsight we should have figured out I was ADHD a lot sooner.

GAFAHAGAJHAHS THANK YOU SO MUCH 🥺 I LOVE ONE MAN……..

I hope you end up figuring out what works best for you!! As a general AA question, what's your favorite case and why? 👀

thank you sm! its been a struggle to figure out what i do and dont like, but ill eventually sort it all out and hopefully figure out a new direction for this blog!

interesting question!

i have so many cases that i absolutely adore, it makes it so hard to pick just one! so i'll give you my top three lol!

6-3: turnabout storyteller. any case where you play as athena is a good case. she deserved more screentime!! her and blackquill's dynamic in that case was hilarious! i can (and have) replay that case and always enjoy it

5-DLC turnabout reclaimed. i just loved this case?? for some reason the ending caught me way off guard and i just enjoyed the vibes of it. plus, phoenix getting his badge back and immediately defending an orca will never not be funny

TGAA2-5: the resolve of ryunosuke naruhodo. two great games, one amazing ending. tbh i love all of the ace attorney chronicles cases so it was hard to pick just one lol. but i remember playing the ending and specifically thinking "wow, that was mindblowing"

i can talk about why i do or dont like cases for HOURS. especially TGAA... i really liked TGAA haha

🌹 lol i would LOVE to see a hunter/starr and tech/h'owl double date

🌹 - Your S/I and mine are double-dating with our F/Os! How do you think that would go?

oooooOOOOOO A double date with Tech and H'owl would be SO much fun!!! I think it would go super well! Like we'd go to a fair together or something and we're chilling! And having fun!

And then we'd see like one of those game booths and.... I don't know I feel like there'd be a little competition between the four of us to see which couple would win djkdjkds!!

💕 and the Bad Batch 👀

Ooo okay so Starr has a weird relationship with the Bad Batch members but she ultimately respects them all

Hunter, she has a crush on and loves his loyalty to his family and Omega so she just... Sits in unrequited love for a bit. She likes looking past his broodiness to learn more about him and she trusts him the most

Echo, Starr likes Echo because he actually asks her a lot about her old home and gets to know her before she got Isekaied. In turn she asks him about his past and learns more about the Empire

Wrecker, Starr loves Wrecker and initially did not trust him because she was afraid he might kill her but she gets over it and they now are besties fhdhdid

And Tech! Starr likes Tech. She likes his honesty but can't tell when he's being sarcastic or not. Sometimes this causes miscommunication between them. She admires his skills as a pilot and constantly begs him to show her how to fly the ship.
