Random Ace Attorney head canons I have

(spoilers for AA1-5, haven't played the other games yet.)

The Payne's and the Edgeworth's are distant relatives, the Payne's don't know this, but Miles does, Miles does not enjoy this fact at all

Franziska and Kristoph do speak English with a German accent but, it's not super thick as they both practiced speaking English from young age

Klavier also learnt English from a young age but likes to exaggerate his accent and, say the occasional German word, because he thinks it makes him more sexy

Larry has rich snobbish parents who were super strict and neglectful, he never got along with them (being the class clown partly to rebel against them, and partly for fun) and moved out after dropping out of highschool

The Blackquills are British (I mean this is kinda canon cuz Simon is British coded but still wanna mention it)

Maya loves metal music and, often played her CDs really loud in the office on a slow day, during the events of AA1-3 (Phoenix didn't enjoy this, but knew stopping Maya wasn't worth it, especially when Peal was also in the office dancing with Maya to the music)

Trucy also likes mental thanks to Maya sending her some CDs for her 14th birthday, Phoenix refused to talk to Maya for a few months after this happened

Trucy and Pearl tried to get Apollo and Athena into metal, they failed

Lana and Iris are friends, they met each other in prison

Miles and Athena both enjoy having conversations (often about the law) with each other, due to them both being multilingual and therefore, being able to switch between languages on a whim with each other while maintaining a conversation

terrible aa spinoff idea, since Phoenix and Miles both have their own game Larry should have one too!

His spin off game is a dating sim that it has multiple romance options and multiple endings! The gimmick however is that all the dialogue options suck, and every ending is a bad ending. Larry fails no matter what you try.

The funniest Ace Attorney head canon I've seen is Miles Edgeworth having a British accent. especially since he was born and raised in America, and probably also Germany from age 9 as his "big sister" Fanziska seems to of been born and raised there (and personally I'm Manfred adopted him believer).

So idk where a British accent would come from, is it just because he wears fancy suit, is an antagonist and drinks tea?

With all this said I saw a fun version of this head canon where Miles has specifically an oxford British accent because he trained himself to be good at multiple accents as a child and, decided he like using that one as his default accent the most. Wish I remembered the fanfic I saw this amazing hc in though :/

What I thought under the cut (has AA4 spoilers)

I honestly thought he look like a cockroach and as a result found his hair really funny! I'm pretty sure he's meant to look like a bunny cuz his Trucy's half brother, Trucy does magic tricks, it makes sense and, I can kinda see it.

But not super well cuz to me it just looks more like a cockroach so I'm curious to see how many people who decide to take this poll think similar.

fuck yea I finally got my ps2 setup in the loungeroom! (⁠ﾉ⁠◕⁠ヮ⁠◕⁠)⁠ﾉ⁠*⁠.⁠✧

time to play bustin' out :3

[cyandreamz]

so I'm currently up to the first trial for case 2 in SOJ and, I'm sure this has been said many times but, I really dislike that Phoenix isn't there for Trucy's big show, especially since in case 6-1 he mentioned arriving at khura'in 2 weeks early! What reason does he have to do that!? If he left a week early than he wouldn't have to miss Trucy's big show! That's plenty of time for sightseeing before seeing Maya!

Aside from that though I am enjoying case 6-2 a lot, which is good because I personally hated case 6-1 (all good if you like it, it's just not for me) so I hope I keep on enjoying case 6-2 :-D I even teared up when Phoenix said he was proud of Apollo and meant it! Cuz in AJ he said something like "I believe in you" and when Apollo asked if he meant that he basically said "lol nope" :'-( so it's sweet to see him do the bare minimum and be a good boss/supervisor to Apollo

for reference, casual means basic shirt and pants in this case, while semi-casual is an outfit with more effort put into (e.g more interesting shirt, maybe a cardigan, stuff like that) it but is not formal wear.

Finally got my drawing tablet out of storage!

\(≧∇≦)/ Now I can do digital art again but It'll take a while to get use to not just using drawing digitally again but also, using the drawing tablet on my current laptop. For now, enjoy a quick Miles doodle I did to test if the tablet worked :P

[cyandreamz]

my brain went on a cursed tangent as I was walking today. Basically I was thinking about how I hc Miles Edgeworth as having a fairly deep voice and than, I remembered that keanu reeves has a fairy deep voice that is oddly accurate to my hc vocal range for Miles (though Miles in my mind sounds less brooding than the characters Keanu gets type casted for typically and more formal, if that makes sense).

Which lead to me thinking of how cursed it would be to have an Ace Attorney live action film that had keanu reeves play Miles Edgeworth. Could you imagine Keanu with clean shaven face and Miles silly grey anime boy hairstyle?

Was working on a drawing for langworth week a few days ago but my arm and shoulder started to hurt too bad so I gotta rest them (⁠´⁠;⁠︵⁠;⁠`⁠)

idk when I can next draw but once i can draw it will be late langworth week art >:-), I also plan on actually doing the drawing digitally so hopefully it comes out well!

[cyandreamz]

Twice I lost my iron to lava... TWICE!

[cyandreamz]

8,10,27!!!! :D (hope you’re well btw :D)

Thank you for the asks and yep I've been well, just been busy and not able to draw as often as I used too (⁠´⁠-⁠﹏⁠-⁠`⁠；⁠), now time to answer the asks! >:3

8. Favourite assistant?

Kay! So to clarify in my mind what makes a character a "favorite assistant" isn't just how much I like the character overall (otherwise the answer would be Maya) but also how well they serve the assistant role, which is a super subjective measure but in my mind Kay wins because not only does she have the most useful helping mechanic but, she also contrasts and plays off the person she's assisting the most.

10. Favourite quote?

Maybe I'm weird but I don't really have one? then again I've only played threw the franchise once so maybe that's why.

27. (your least fave mechanic) Apollo’s perceive, Phoenix’s magatama or Athena’s Mood Matrix?

This is kinda hard to answer but I'll pick the magatama, but let me explain why!

out of the 3 mechanics this is the one I've had most trouble with, in AA2-3 it wasn't too hard to play the mini game itself and, was a good challenge level imo but, the frustration was trying to know when to use it! I would often get stuck trying to use it too early or think I soft locked the game, only to look up a walkthrough to check and, sure enough, it was just Magatama time...

AA5-6 only made it worse! Now it feels like it's holding my hand by just telling me to use it, and as I'm using the Magatama it just feels way too easy. Honestly Apollo's perceive has the exact same problems in AA5-6 to me, I doubt they intended to ruin those game mechanics to make the mood matrix better (I have seen people actually claim this which is wild to me ngl), I think it was just them trying to correct for the frustrations those mechanics sometimes caused but over corrected way too far.

Hope you enjoyed reading my answers! (⁠ﾉ⁠◕⁠ヮ⁠◕⁠)⁠ﾉ⁠*⁠.⁠✧

[cyandreamz]

YEAH YEAH YEAH 2, 16, 17, 18

and 20 ! i like asking 20 (asks aren't open on your ace attorney sideblog btw)

(Oops maybe side blogs can't accept asks? Oh well I'll just have to answer them on my main blog instead of my ace attorney side blog then :P)

2: a headcanon you weren't sure about at first but have come to like!

Before playing aa4 and aa5 I wasn't sure about hcing Apollo as a trans male and Athena as a woman and austic. But once I finished both characters intro games I've come to adopt these hc's myself as I can see both of them socially transitioning as kids. Plus Athena having super sensitive ears and struggling more with that as a kid is very relatable as that's an austic trait I have (unfortunately it doesn't allow me to hear peoples emotions and just means I can't cope with vaccum cleaners and hand dryers (TT O TT)) so her backstory definitely led me to hc her as austic lol.

16: a tiny detail in canon that you want more people to appreciate

I think the visual choices for sure. From both Miles and Franziska mimicking Menfred in both design and sprite animations (with Miles doing it more as a rookie and Franziska doing it even more than Rookie Miles), to small details like Phoenix having slightly shorter hair in aa3's flashback case (which I don't think enough people notice and often draw "Feenie" with same hair length, probably because it's that length in every other design, including child design), Ema's adult outfit having references to highschool uniform even in SOJ but doesn't straight up look like a highschool uniform thank goodness, Klavier looking more like his brother at 24 than at 17, and the list can go on and on and on!

17: the thing in canon that everyone loves and that you also love

I think I've seen enough people talk about how much they love this for it to count as an answer :3. The diversity of relationships. I'm all for romantic and/or sexual ships (I am a mulishipper lol) but, I do appreciate that in canon we have so many positive and friendly relationships between siblings, co-workers and friends with no hint of needing to "take things further" because they don't need to! Even with huge age gaps, characters can and will get along as friends! Which in society is seen as strange (at least it's seemed that way to me growing up. I remember in primary school I once got in trouble for having a friend that was "too young" & was told I was weird as a teen for getting along with adults??? So strange).

An example of a fun interaction between characters imo is in case 5-3 is when Athena is talking to Phoenix early on the case (I think before the body was found, can't quite remember sorry) because he clearly see's her as both his young employee, but also as a friend, and Athena both looks up to him, and is also able to joke/jabs about him, like saying she thinks he probably looked scary in college XD

18: a fandom tag that you track

I don't follow tags, I've looked at a few tags and honestly don't enjoy using Tumblr like that. Much prefer to look at the for you and following tabs instead of going there the popular posts in a tag :P

20: your very first fandom!

So even though I've casually observed fandom spaces since I was 12 I never engaged in fandom spaces until my late teens. It's hard to pin point which was my first fandom since my early fandom experiences consisted of jointing a bunch of Facebook groups (which wasn't really fun as only one group didn't have consistent drama and infighting) but I think it's a tie between the Gorillaz fandom (as in the band, been a long time since I've listened to them lol) and The Sims fandom (which I'm still kinda apart of, Sim fans are definitely more chill on Tumblr, but I mostly stick with Sims 2 side of fandom).

thank you for sending this ask ✧⁠◝⁠(⁠⁰⁠▿⁠⁰⁠)⁠◜⁠✧ it was a lot of fun answering all the questions

Fandom asks post can be found here!

Wait people have name order in ships based off who they think is top or bottom? I thought it was purely based off what sounded better...

💕Positivity prime time! Share five things you love about yourself, four things you're excited about, OR three people you care deeply about and why. Pass this along to someone whose posts make you smile💕

thank you Anon! I'll go with the 4 things because answering that one is most fun for me (⁠◕ω⁠◕)

aai collection, I bought it earlier this week and currently up to the 4th chapter! I've enjoyed it a lot so fair and prefer the gameplay style to main aa games cuz I find it more immersive and the gameplay mechanics are more enjoyable for me. Also the OST is so good! (playing with the original OST and original sprites cuz it's my first time playing aai)

Sims 2's birthday! It's this Saturday and the game will be 20 years old :-D

Going to a clay workshop next week! I always find making art exciting but I've never been to any kind of workshop before but this one looks like it'll be fun for several reasons so I'm looking forward to trying it out XP

Going to second hand shops! (I'm counting this because I did this today lol) Even if I don't buy anything I always enjoy going inside and just looking at all the random stuff XD. Of course some second hand shops suck, because they try too hard to be like a regular retail stores and/or are too pricey, but the small ones that accept basically anything and sell it real cheap are always exciting to browse (^ω^)
