Was in the server you're talking about, and even though wasn't all too active / didnt know personally, I am genuinely shocked by how things are being handled and have been confused overall. Rather than a clear message being given about the reasons for the ban the announcement was a bit vague and staff keep just keep making threads to explain themselves or going to random channels for damage control making it difficult for me to parse their reasoning for the ban. And now they're shutting down the whole server which. Is a choice. However from the times I've seen you on the server you have been a very kind and fun person and am sorry you're going through all this. Hope you can reconnect with others!

thanks! i am obviously heartbroken but everyone has been coming out in droves to show their support. there is so much love to find in this horrible situation and i am looking wherever i can for it.

the mod team of aablr have always been a shit show and a huge reason they are banning me is apparently because i am "combative" and "argumentative." their evidence for this is a bunch of screencaps of me literally just asking clarification questions about certain rules. i had no idea any of those conversations were adversarial or combative, i thought we were just talking things out. basically, i got banned for the usual ableism autistics face--we ask questions, and allistic people view the questions (which come from a place of compassion and a need to understand) as arguing.

one of the mods has a lot of the same brain stuff as me, outright said 'hey, i think this is whats happening' and the mods response to that was 'its easier to just ban wendy than to have you come in here and translate what theyre saying.'

they have basically admitted they just did not like my vibe and were looking for a reason to get rid of me. they tried to hide it behind thinly veiled accusations that i was soliciting sex from minors (again, i cannot stress enough how fucking untrue this is. i made a passing, inelegant comment about a halloween costume that shows some skin and didn't realize it could be taken inappropriately because i don't think about teenagers in a sexual context, which apparently makes me the weird one)

they were hoping if they framed me as a predator, it would be an easy way to get rid of me without eliciting too much sympathy to my plight.

it did not work. i have been kind to people, and i have been compassionate, and now i receive that threefold.

courtside, they call me Karma.

Would you get into trouble and cover up for a friend?

In a heartbeat

[reve-rv]

Oh? What’s this?

It’s for me-

[musashi]

The cover from that tiktok is by the band Sunrise Skater Kids and they just released a full album of several classic pop-punk songs covered in Japanese, I literally cannot recommend it enough it fucks so hard, I hope you enjoy!!

AM I IN FUCKING HEAVEN?

Wait can you explain the joke for "there is a platonic explanation you're just American"? Are americans more amatonormative than other cultures?

incredibly so. usamericans are super fucking weird about physical contact, assign romantic intention to EVERYTHING not kept strictly professional, and overall just assign romantic intent to a TON of things that would never be read as romantic in like 99% of the rest of the world.

it's really fucking sad. you constantly see usamericans posting about how touched starved they are and how badly they want to emotionally connect and basically just crying that they don't have any friends because their version of friendship is just so sad and devoid of like... normal Social Species Behaviour like physical contact and any other form of intimacy. intimacy is like, inherently romantic to usamericans.

it really sucks! i want to hold and snuggle and adore my friends. i want to be emotional with them, i want them to cry on me, i want to know all their feelings and traumas, i want to stargaze with them and sleep with them and take care of them when they need someone. when i was a teenager this was no problem but as people grow up and get steeped in the culture they vanish in the ways i need them.

no one is as neurotic about intimacy as usamericans. i hate it here!

on the post about evil clones where you talked about kingdom hearts in the tags, what character/game were you referring to? genuine question. i binged the series a few years ago but after a while of not actively interacting with the series my memories of the different characters' plotlines have started to blur together a bit so i cant quite pull who it would be lmao

i was talking about roxas. the whole elevator pitch for roxas is "what if we introduced the main character's Dark Shadow Self, and represent him as a sensitive young boy who is lost, confused, and grappling with his own identity? What if we explored what it meant to simply be someone's shadow, and the ever-present longing to just be your own?"

all the while roxas is being assaulted on all sides by people who just want him to be sora, or disappear so sora can exist again. roxas is constantly, at every turn, reminded of the life he could have lived if only he was born under different circumstances.

roxas has everything he loves taken from him simply because he is not sora. for a very long time, that's where his story ended--in complete and total tragedy, where there was no hope of a happy ending.

the game in question is 358/2 Days, which is Roxas's Very Own Game and follows him from birth to near-death. it is a game about the fleeting, doomed joy of the Dark Shadow Clone and how for just one year, he is allowed to make friends and sneak off from his cult duties to eat ice cream and goof around with those friends. every moment of this joy is punctuated with a clock counting down. and at the time of it releasing, KH2 had already come out, so we all knew where roxas's story would end.

every day since i first met him i think about this boy. i think i would burn the world to cinders in his name.

do you ever wonder if Larry emptied out Manfred's bank account after Manfred told everyone his ATM card number during the last day of 1-4

i'm actually team maya doing that. my friends and i literally have a vocal stim for it--"burgers on manny"

[musashi]

You're making me fall back in love with Franmaya again, I don't know how else to say this other than, thank you, truly!! What are some of your favorite FRMY fic recs? :D

everything by my girlfriend. top of the list. there is all ages stuff as well as e rated stuff so be mindful, but please for the love of god read bailey's fic.

turnabout substitution not only made me read case fic (i do not like casefic) but i got so insane about it that i now own a physical copy of this in real life that is signed by the author.

non-bailey fics:

See if It Changes the Scene by ChickenMcNothing - this one has fran whump so i am biased

Robert Fuckin' Liston Is Standing In My Kitchen by chantolove - adorable fluffy franmaya & fran character introspection by my beloved caro

Sammy by poodlepunk - a classic for good reason. i cant read this one too much or i start crying tho

returned twofold by jupiupy - i'm due for a re-read on this one but i remember crying a lot the first time i read it

the way we starve to start again by fictitiousregrets - the fake divorce fic. one of the all time greatest. this author has written other franmaya that i've yet to read but i'm sure it's fucking phenomenal. i think about this fic... daily.

The von Karma Guide to Whipping Your Brother Into Shape by mundanecactus - might be my fave non-girlfriend ace attorney fic of all time. masquerades as a wrightworth but is actually a franmaya. informed countless headcanons of mine and accidentally awakened kin memories i did not know i had. there is a scene while miles and franziska go grocery shopping and act so annoyingly siblings the whole time i had to start biting my pillow. please read this

[not SFW reccs will be in the reblogs, standby]

[musashi]

Do you happen to have a link to the video of music snob guy reacting to Black Parade?

[musashi]

May I offer you some FranMaya in these trying times?

[musashi]

Hi I just saw your new pinned post and the idea that Franziska's a light sleeper gave me the immediate mental image of Franziska napping & seemingly dead to the world until miles sneezes slightly at which point she sits completely upright, grabs a tissue, slaps him with it, and then flops right back down

I'M PICTURING HER CHUCKING THE WHOLE BOX AT HIS HEAD VIOLENTLY FDHHFGHG this happens like constantly in the springtime

[musashi]

franziska in a room with a bunch of puppies how fast does she die

canon franziska breaks down crying almost immediately because she's so emotional she can't protect them all

my franziska does the same thing except you can't really tell what's cute aggression tears and what's allergic tears

[musashi]

Did Mia and Miles ever interact much? What was their relationship like (if any)?

they took each other's trial virginities actually

miles called her a bimbo. in court. then the defendant killed himself in front of them. so it was kind of a weird day

[musashi]

ok listen I am one of the little gay people in your phone and I have been told (and know firsthand) that if you see something that someone made and you liked it then you have to tell them (that is the law)

so I need you to know that I kept seeing your video on franziska in my youtube recs and eventually gave in to the youtube peer pressure and watched it, despite having *never* played any of the ace attorney games (read: has a family full of lawyers and cannot play the games without going insane over the wack shit going on in them).

anyway I immediately played the games and have gotten attached to franziska thank u for giving me another fictional woman to project onto. on the same note, how dare you, I am now going even more insane over things my friends do not care to hear about.

anyway. happy uh. easter? I genuinely have no idea what day easter is this year.

YESSSSSSSSSS HAHAHAHA JOIN USSSS

so funny that you watched the fran video and adopted her right before april fools day. foretold

[musashi]

As a German, I agree to the point in your video, making the von Karmas German is one of the biggest brain moves the localization of AA ever possibly could pull. Also Franziska is such a common name here, it just adds to the hilarity. Poor little Franzi, I just know she is screening the supermarkets in Japanifornia for a good (or even adequate) loaf of bread.

I DIDN'T ELABORATE MUCH BUT IT MAKES ME SO HAPPY LMAO. it was such a good choice. the obsessive punctuality. the "uncomfortable" bluntness. franziska telling a distracted judge "look it up later. we're working now." the way they are consistently described as staring down their opponents or 'glaring' fhfdghfgf. i could go on.

i think we as a fandom need to use some of the more common shortenings of franziska. i see ziska and franzi (usually spelled the more americanized franzy) but we're sleeping on zissi. and fränzle.

also this is so hilarious but would you believe i wrote exactly what you described in this ask a year and a fucking half ago?

[musashi]

Here's a picture of two moray eels

I hope that's more pleasant ❤️

woagh... guys
