The Perfect Prince

[doctorsiren]

it’s entirely too early for me to be awake so here is a dumb meme

[landfilloftrash]

seeing ghosts everywhere you go?

are they all in your head or are they here causing that chill in your bones?

[plumdonutsv]

i really wanna talk with someone about webtoons i enjoy reading: covenant, the last god of spring, jackson’s diary, the croaking, sunset phoenix, it strikes a chord, suitor armor, time and time again, the blind prince, solid state

"How sweet, girlfriend to the rescue."

"You got that right, lady!"

Ouh. I really like how out of all the antagonists in the series, Prism's motivations (and her turning to Zoraxis) are directly influenced by Phoenix's track record. She has the most personal beef with the agent, though it's a little ironic that her TK implant helped the agent's success. If it weren't for Prism, Phoenix wouldn't be the legend that they are known for.

...Except...That's minimizing Phoenix's own ingenuity and skill with the implant, isn't it? It's a useful tool, yes! But in the end, it's just a tool. Phoenix was able to use it in unique ways, and that's not counting whatever else Phoenix has to do in the moment without TK. If it weren't for Phoenix's own efforts (and their strange ability to not Die), Prism wouldn't be forced to take revenge.

They're their own self-made people, but inevitably they left such a huge impact on each other before the third game...and if Prism wasn't the one who personally added the implant in Phoenix's head, then they haven't even interacted in person!

It could be seen as a little tragic, and it sorta is--Prism's desire for revenge is a little misplaced (and, yes, it is bolstered by Zor when she switches to their side). For all we know, Phoenix never intended to be the villain in Prism's story. But Prism's frustrated and angry and devastated about being reduced to the One Project she made. She just wanted to make something bigger than herself.

And it's really nice to see Phoenix help her once she recognizes that Zor's been using her all this time...even if it takes some time for Prism to really let them help her.

It takes the combination of their unique skills, brainpower, and their eventual trust in one another to destroy Zor's volcano kinesium base. Prism gets saved by the person she thought made her dreams impossible, and in return, Phoenix gets saved in the one IEYTD ending where they're not declared legally dead. I feel like that's something interesting? Because this is also the one finale where Phoenix has an active ally working with them close to their side (...as close as Prism and Phoenix could get, anyway).

Well. Anyway. What was I talking about? Enemies who are closely intertwined with one another's journeys end up becoming each other's most important allies? Okay, yeah. Let's go with that.

The thing about having all your interests made fun of during your formative years is that even though it’s been a while since anyone actively did it, it’s still hard to be fully self indulgent even in your own mind because being cringe is bad and sometimes you so badly want to share things but it’s so easy for people to be mean about it. Anyway here’s permission from me personally to be as cringe and weird as you want to be, especially in your own head because it’s totally safe there and there is no god or mind readers who will give a shit about what’s going on in there.

it's interesting how phoenix doesn't get edgeworth at all. we the players can plainly see how touched edgeworth is by what maya did for him, meanwhile phoenix thinks edgeworth is an ungrateful bastard. the mess that happened between them in the second game was bound to happen.

Following for the day you pass the bar exam o7

hahaha thank you! in australia the admission requirements are a little different (although it does differ a little between jurisdictions) so i shouldn't have to pass the bar to be admitted as a lawyer if i'm planning to practice here. it'll be a bunch of other stuff instead. hopefully soon-ish >:3

[aro-culture-is]

partially blind / low vision / visually impaired aro culture is finding it hilarious when you say "i cant see it" when people talk about ships ;)-

the wright anything angency members come into work, look at the rest of their coworkers, and think, "wow,,,,,, their outfits are way too brightly coloured :/// horrible" while being completely oblivious to the fact that their own suits are just as bright. Phoenix's suit? bright Blue. Apollo's? it's the same red colour as a stop sign. Athena's outfit? the most garish, neon yellow I have ever seen in my life. Trucy gets a free pass though, since she's a performer and her outfit is meant to be eye-catching

Dear Thebestnerd-critic,

diego seeing through mia is the coolest idea ever, but how exactly does it work? are there any limitations?

First thought: well of course he can see through her! She’s a ghost!

Second thought: it’s more of he can only see her, so she leads him, tells him visual information he might need to know, and also just keeps him company

BUT this did give me an interesting idea of like him actually being able to see through her eyes after the spirit bond between the two gets stronger

like like like Zane and his robo-bird from Ninjago?? Y’know what I mean?? So like, not all the time, but it’s like a power, sort of like being like a spirit medium

But instead of channeling spirits, he’s watching the spirit channel or some dumb joke like that LMAO

She isn’t tethered to him, so she can go wherever and still be channeled by Maya and Pearl, but she tends to stay by his side (just like she would have been by his side at his hospital bed before she got killed)

Her spirit also fluctuates in strength and power, so sometimes she’s very visible to him and basically feels corporeal, but then other times, she’s more faint and see-through

*After getting back from recovery after KBOOM...* Phoenix: ... What do you mean my field privileges got revoked? Reginald: Agent, we can't have field agents crash vehicles willy-nilly. And you destroyed the car. Phoenix: You confessed to destroying 3 vans. Reginald: Why exactly do you think I am not a field agent anymore? Phoenix: Fine! I'm taking that stupid program. It's not my fault there were flamethrowers there and I almost died to a robot. Reginald: No amount of complaining will change anything. On the bright side, you'll learn how to operate a forklift. Phoenix: . . . My next mission will be in a warehouse, isn't it?
