cannot stop thinking about how similar jun letting nyarlathotep possess him is to maruki first hearing his persona (the text in the 4th one doesn't match the voice acting which says 'you want power')

[Image description taken from alt: Screenshot of dj-of-the-coven saying "this is kinda secondary to the point but every time I hear about a lesbian headcanon in fandom I say "is this actually a lesbian or are you guys pretending straight women, pan ppl & bisexuals don't exist" and they say "what" so I go "is this a lesbian or is this a woman who is actively interested in and pursuing men in canon" and the fandom laughs and says "it's a lesbian ma'am" and I say "are you SURE she has no interest in the bland male love interest who has a popular yaoi ship" and they say "we've got a 100% genuine dyke" and then I take a look and not only does she like men but literally all of her screen time is dedicated to one half of the popular yaoi ship. thanks guys I feel super represented rn". End description.]
(Shakes fan by the shoulders) ( with gritted teeth) they can be BISEXUAL they can be BISEXUAL they have DATED PEOPLE OF THE OPPOSITE SEX BEFORE you dont need to erase that to ship them with whiteboy of the month SHE WASN'T HIS UNINTRESTED LESBIAN BEST FRIEND WHO'S SNARKY AND FED UP WITH HIS GAY SHENANIGANS THEY WERE DATING HE CAN BE BISEXUAL. SHE CAN BE BISEXUAL. SOMETIMES PEOPLE ARE BISEXUAL.
#JUNIPER WOODS#'oh her crush on apollo was comphet-' great i get where you're coming from#but why is that the only reason anyone gives to ship her with athena instead of apollo#like you could say her crush faded! you could say that he's gay and/or already in a relationship#and/or otherwise not interested!#there are many ways to have her date athena instead of apollo that DON'T ignore her cush on him#like i do like juniper/apollo but that's not the only reason this annoys me. like if you thought she was aro or something#or lesbian juniper was less common i don't think i'd be as annoyed#also the reasons people give for her crush being comphet (he's a nice guy who saved her from a murder conviction)#are basically the same reasons people give for shipping juniper/athena (minus the childhood friends thing)#like you don't have to ship both but their bases are very similar!#honestly i think the main reason people do this (aside from biphobia) is because like. if it's a genuine crush then apollo might reciprocat#even though a lot of these people already think he's gay#i read a post a while back about like. people expecting crushes to be reciprocated or something#and it was about aro people irl but i think the same kind of sentiments apply here#in fiction you can't have unrequited love. or if you do the person with the crush can't move on and find someone else#(obviously not always but In General)#and i think that's part of what's going on not just with juniper but the general phenomenon this post is talking about#trying to cut off any possible ships other than the one YOU like. or at leas the one(s) you don't like#honestly the only reason i don't think phoenix gets this treatment is because phoenix/iris is explicitly a past thing#and they have good/easy reasons not to get back together#buuut yeah ace attorney fandom please let juniper be bi/pan. please.#tag rambles#ace attorney#fandom#described#m

The reason I became a Krusielle stan is because I love Suselle, Krusie, and Kriselle so much that I just had to do them all at once.
I love each ship for their own special reasons, whether it be because of their chemistry, their dynamics, their themes, etc, etc, etc!!!!
I love Suselle because Noelle and Susie have the best romance scenes in the game (and I got a feeling that's not gonna change come Chapters 3 and 4)!
I love Krusie because of Kris and Susie's moss-eating antics and because it has my favourite dynamic!
And I love Kriselle because it has the richest storytelling and because it's a classic childhood-friends-turned-lovers story (served with a nice side helping of doomed yuri and cosmic horror)!
They're all WONDERFUL WONDERFUL ships! So much can't pick one and leave the rest in the harbour (pardon that stupid pun).
So why not have all three?!
Besides, they each have two hands don't they?

[Image description taken from alt: Image 1: Digital sketches of Miles Edgeworth from Ace Attorney, as a butch woman. She's wearing the same outfit as in the games, additionally with black painted nails and light blue earrings. In the sketch on the right, she's doing the cocky finger tapping like her sprite, fully colored. In the sketch on the left, which is not colored, she's holding papers and squinting at them, looking through her glasses.
Image 2: Digital sketches of Phoenix Wright from Ace Attorney, as a butch woman. In the first sketch on the left, which is colored, she is pointing her finger and yelling, like on the defense bench. She's wearing the suit from the Ace Attorney: Phoenix Wright trilogy. In the second sketch, which is not colored, she's wearing the outfit like from the Ace Attorney: Apollo Justice game (hoodie and beanie), with the difference of her hair being longer and tied into a low bun. She is casually looking at the viewer with her hands in the hoodie pockets.
Image 3: A colorless digital sketch of Phoenix Wright and Miles Edgeworth from Ace Attorney, as butch women. Phoenix is behind Miles, smiling silly and groping her chest, saying "Oooh boy, those look heavy, need a hand?" Miles is shooing her hands away, blushing but looking annoyed, saying "Honestly, Wright. Be decent. We are in a government facility." They have matching earrings on their right ears.
Image 4: A colorless digital sketch comic of Miles Edgeworth and Phoenix Wright from Ace Attorney, as butch women. They are standing in front of a mirror. Miles is wearing her pajamas and Phoenix a tank top, with her hair in a messy bun. In panel 1, Miles is putting on a face mask, irritated as behind her, a little distanced, stands Phoenix, trying to hold in a laugh. In panel 2, Miles nonchalantly keeps suiting her face mask, and behind her Phoenix is now also wearing a face mask, staring unimpressed right into the viewer. End description.]

One thing that’s become really clear while watching Classic Doctor Who alongside the current era—especially starting with the Fifteenth Doctor—is how well the Ninth through Twelfth Doctor eras nailed the balance of episode length and story structure.
Classic Who usually split its stories into four or five 20–25 minute episodes per arc, which roughly equals the runtime of a modern two-parter. But while that format allowed for sprawling narratives, it came with a tradeoff: pacing. Entire episodes sometimes feel like narrative treading water—not because the writing was bad, but because of the constraints of mid-20th century television. (That’s its own fascinating rabbit hole, but we’ll save that for another time.)
To be fair, Classic Who did experiment with its format. Some stories, like The Edge of Destruction—a tight, two-part psychological thriller set entirely inside the TARDIS—used a smaller runtime to great effect. It’s still one of the strongest entries of Season 1, partly because it had no room to meander.
Later, the show dabbled in stories of two 45-minute episodes during Season 22. But those episodes often had the same problem: some stories still didn’t need the extra time. Take The Mark of the Rani, for example. It was padded out to fit that two-part, 45-minute-per-episode format (roughly 90 minutes total), but honestly? It could’ve been a sharper, more effective 40-minute story. There’s a lot of unnecessary fluff that drags the pacing down.
But then you get something like The Keys of Marinus—a six-parter (20 min each part) that essentially functions as a sci-fi anthology. Each episode throws the Doctor and co. into a completely new setting with its own self-contained mini-plot. It uses its extended format to experiment and surprise without feeling stale. That’s when the long form works.
Then came the 2005–2017 revival era, and honestly? The show hit its structural gold standard: twelve episodes per season, blending 40-minute standalones with 80-minute two-parters. And it just worked.
Episodes like Blink and Midnight were tight, high-impact stories that landed precisely because they didn’t overstay their welcome. Try stretching either one to feature-length, and the tension would unravel. Meanwhile, two-parters like The Empty Child / The Doctor Dances had room to build atmosphere, layer in character development, and deliver those signature emotional wallops. They remain fan favorites for a reason: the format gave them the breathing room they needed—and then stopped.
Which brings us to the Fifteenth Doctor’s era.
Right now, we’re back to a one-size-fits-all approach but the opposite direction: single 40-minute episodes across the season, with only the finale allowed to be a two-parter. And the result? Some stories just aren’t getting the space they need to land.
Doctor Who thrives on structural flexibility. Some stories need 80 minutes to unfold. Others are perfect little 40-minute excursions. Locking every episode into the same runtime is like asking every alien to fit inside a human suit: it works until it doesn’t, and when it doesn’t, it’s obvious.
The point is: variety in format has always been one of Doctor Who’s strengths. When the show leans into that, it sings. When it forgets that… well, you end up with stories that could’ve soared if they were just given a little more space to breathe.
(Also I don’t mean to exclude 13—it’s just that her era experimented with structure so much across her run that it’s kind of its own thing, there’s a whole separate post to be written about what worked and didn’t there.)
(Fun fact for reading this far: The Edge of Destruction was only two 25-minute parts because the production team didn’t know if the show was getting picked up for more episodes. They wrote a short, self-contained story set entirely inside the TARDIS to avoid building new sets. It was meant to be cheap filler—and it ended up being one of the highlights of the First Doctor’s era.)
