#simon blackquill u will always be iconic
Text
it is incredibly easy to tell when people can not write simon blackquill because his speech — at least for his TwIsTeD sAmUrAi persona — is so distinct. it’s difficult for me to explain in words, but if you look at the game transcripts for any period of time you should be able to get a sense for it and it is so aggravating to see fanworks where he isn’t yapping like some victorian era chap with a disposition for the macabre. a heinous fiend pried from the pages of penny dreadful.
“from the outset, i had no intention of paying heed to any of your babble”? bars. he calls apollo a “whelp.” impeccable. “the defendant sought to sow this confusion”? brilliant. “nothing but claptrap and balderdash if you ask me”? iconic. read some 18th century literature or ask the spirit of jane austen for her aid before putting the name of simon blackquill in your mouth my good chap
#i do not like to read fic bc little of it is what i want to see and even less is of my personal standards BUT#ace attorney in particular is a TEXT BASED game with TRANSCRIPTS easily accessible#fanwork is for fun yes yes but if u want it to be fanwork that is accurate and of a high quality#for the love of god. look at the transcripts#simon is one of the characters that is easiest to tell if he’s OOC just by speech alone#if you played the game in a language other than english immediate pass but come on now#does this sound harsh probably im just an english major who loves writing dialogue like this he’s so fun#simon blackquill u will always be iconic#replaying DD for my never ending CAYA grind and i love him
