Have a silly thought:
Scooby Doo started in 1969.
Daphne is frequently interpreted as having a strained relationship with her parents, but also coming from wealth, and being able to rely on that wealth to some degree.
A minor can be added as an 'authorized user' to a parent's credit card, but cannot have their own until age 18 (raised to 21 without cosigner in 2009).
It was illegal for women to have their own credit cards without a male cosigner (parent or spouse) until 1974.
Daphne wants a credit card, that she can pay for from her trust fund, or from money made solving mysteries, that her parents can't actually look at and see purchases on.
Daphne marries Fred for Legal Lending the second they turn 18 in like 1970, along with a host of other "Daphne is the money manager for the Mystery Gang but isn't legally allowed financial independence, so Fred just cosigns everything for her and then lets her do whatever she thinks is best" reasons.

Been playing through ace attorney again and, while the gay reading is objectively correct, the straight, or at least non-sexual, reading of "unnecessary feelings" is also fucking hilarious when you realise the "feelings" are fucking morals
Edgeworths words go from "seeing you, my childhood best friend, after all these years has left me with thoughts like "suddenly my lack of interest in the marriages my foster father tried to arrange for me is taking a different light" and "were all spiky haired men this handsome" and I would like to unpack these in my own time rather than while looking at your handsome face"
To
"Seeing you, my childhood best friend, as the defence has left me with thoughts like "forging evidence suddenly feels bad" and "am I wrong to tell witnesses to make omissions or to straight up commit purgery". Well. I don't like these thoughts so never show your face to me again Phoenix"
And he seems to think that is a totally justified stance to have

(Basic context is that AU of Duel Desinties where the phantom impersonates Phoenix to get him found guilty of Clay's murder, I talk more under the cut abt it jkhlj)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
-Basically meant to be a parallel to turnabout trump, cause if you can have ONE boss get found guilty of murder, why not a second one?
-OK basically: everything in DD happens normally until like- a day before clays murder, Phoenix gets yoinked by the phantom somehow (he is still alive, just being held captive), Phantom is still Fulbright, but they've decided to be silly goofy (target Phoenix and get him found guilty of murder, escape police custody and then murder phoenix and make it seem like Phoenix accidentally died while on the run, thats why they didn't kill phoenix right away unlike the real Fulbright) there is an imposter amo-
-I dont have the logistics as to how this affects solving Metis's murder, and how it effects what evidence is used n whatnot and turnabout for tomorrow as a whole, so im just going nuts HGJKHLJ
-Originally I was actually imagining this taking place during turnabout for tomorrow and I wanted that case to be apollo v klavier instead of phoenix and edgeworth and thats why klav is in here instead of Simon (I decided that Simon got badly injured and couldn't stand in court for the retrial, so klavier was asked to step in)
-The courtroom bombing still happens the same way it does normally, but Apollo decides to take up the case again instead of taking a leave, instead of like, you know, healing from the traumatic event that just happened, turnabout countdown still happens as well
-Apollo and Athena do not find out about the phantom's existence until well after this trial, so they have no idea that Phoenix could've possibly been replaced, though simon, after hearing about the trial, might be suspicious about whether or not that was the real Phoenix
-The Phantom had been not only keeping an eye on Simon for a while, but was also stalking Phoenix and Edgeworth after they both started looking into UR-1, so they were able to impersonate phoenix so well that not even his own daughter thought that anything was up (though while Trucy did find him a *little* bit off, but she figured that it might've been the bombing that caused him to act ever so slightly weird, so she didn't pay much mind to it until she heard about his confession in court and realized it might've been because he possibly, ya know, killed someone)
-it's pretty much just switching Athena being framed for murder with Phoenix, and instead of the trial ending on a cliffhanger, it continues on (probably with Klavier insisting on it) ending with soloman being found innocent and Phoenix being declared guilty
-There's a couple days inbetween the end of the cosmic turnabout and the start of turnabout for tomorrow, so Athena, Apollo and Trucy all get a little bit to process the fact that "oh god my boss/my dad killed someone" (simons execution date is pushed back a bit in this au) and they probably get to talk with Klavier and eventually a lil bit with Simon after he gets out
-Im not sure how it all winds down in turnabout for tomorrow (Phoenix escaping and being at large is basically the perfect cover for the phantom to resume being fulbright for that trial) but they do eventually realize that the phoenix who confessed wasn't the real one and now there's a search on going to find out where the real one is being held captive, hes fineeee just ready to take a week long nap and a good vacation (along with every other waa member)
-I dont have anything else to add on rn but if you want to add something or just throw in a scenario feel free to!! this idea has been bouncing around my head for like a month now and Im very happy to finally show yall it

All creatures were chosen at random (i.e. as they popped into my head). I used "Wyvern" because creatures that fall under the term "Dragon" can be Literally Anything, so wanted to narrow it down slightly. I will not be placing any other limits, please share any personal interpretations* regarding your choice's superiority in the replies/tags :D
*(But for my sake, please TRY to keep it PG, no graphic descriptions of guts and gore I beg you. Pretend it's WWE and they all go out for coffee later or something.)

Eyes flash near dangerously, the usual subtle glow of the mako staining his irises giving way to the sudden rush into his head and there's a soft laugh that he barks out, head cocking slightly to the side curiously while he mulls over the statement. He could handle everything fine enough, or at least that's what Zack thinks even if it would be fun to hand the reigns over and see what Cloud would do if he allowed the blonde to take over. “ Depends. ” He manages, voice as calculated as possible given the way he has to hold himself still, body growing jittery from excess energy beginning to pool within his limbs. “ If you think you can then go ahead, I wanna see what taking charge looks like to you. ”

Hey it's me again talking to you about stuff from the Ace Attorney anime that I really like despite it having a budget of a pack of peanuts and a shoe-string.
One of my favorites is in "Farewell My Turnabout" where Phoenix actually breaks down and cries (on his paperwork!) during the end of that first trial.

Dang.
(Wish the characters weren't so off model, tho, but otherwise 👏)

I swear people don't talk about the shit that just happens in DS visual novels enough. Like yeah okay we lawyering but you better get this parrot to cough it up on the stand. Hey let's do a detective story but have the presentation be just one of the most impressive uses of the hardwares capabilites and be the most visually interesting shit ever just because. Yes you are a surgeon slicing and dicing and laser beaming the fucking patient but can you disarm a bomb

Modern AU: High school fair event thing.
There's a dunk tank. Mace is stationed at the dunk tank, as the person everyone is attempting to dunk.
All of Palps's attempts to get Anakin to do a Thing are derailed by Anakin's absolutely visceral need to dunk his civics teacher.
Mace is literally just sitting there, and Anakin will not give up on throwing things at the target, even if his aim with hand-thrown things is. Bad.
Mace is just like. Okay then. It's pretty hot today anyway, so I don't mind getting dunked. Are you sure you shouldn't take a break to drink something, Skywalker? You're exerting yourself pretty thoroughly.

One quirk of the regular ol’ Ace Attorney Judge, especially in the post-Seven-Years-Gap Era is the often-mentioned fact that he’s a grandpa. You know, it goes along with his Lovable Goofy Old Man characterization. And with it being mainly a post-timeskip trait, the fact that he so casually talks about it with our lawyers helps to establish how well they all know each other by now. Plus, it showcases the passage of time even though his actual design never changes. 
But the thing is that the Judge’s grandchild is pretty much exclusively referred to as ‘grandchild’ every time their grandpa mentions them. The Judge never uses grandson/daughter.

And I think this is just some sort of Translation Side Effect. From what I understand, using the gender-neutral term for ‘grandchild’ like that for a grandson or a granddaughter sounds perfectly naturalistic in Japanese. But I actually love the fact that it sounds slightly Odd in English because it accidentally creates the Vibe that the Judge is just a very very supportive grandpa to his non-binary grandchild.
(I think the AA Wiki lists him having both a grandson and granddaughter cause there are a few instances of him referring to his Grandchild as ‘he’ and others where he used ‘she’ but… I think the Judge’s Grandchild is simply a he/she enby lol)

SOPHIE TURNER at the 2023 Vanity Fair Oscar Party on March 12th 2023 wearing LOUIS VUITTON
Sophie is one of the few celebrities who Louis Vuitton does Justice for. She manages to look really great in a lot of looks from the brand. I absolutely loved this sheer look. I love the super long sleeves, and the sheer material looks so luxe and glamorous.
