This is it...finally I have played the last Ace Attorney game available to me. Having borrowed Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney from the library and a 3DS from a coworker, I have completed my quest to catch up on all the AA games I missed by not having a 3DS in my youth.

And it was fun! The two games go together well--Phoenix and Maya and Layton and Luke's interactions were very cute and the combination of puzzle segments and courtroom sequences worked well. Gameplay-wise it was a little on the easy side, but it makes sense they'd be trying to make things more accessible for people who only knew one of the franchises beforehand. And the plot definitely caught me by surprise a couple times, I had zero knowledge of what actually happens in this game. But I'm glad I finally got to play it!

No screenshots this time, alas, but I did still jot down my thoughts while playing. As always, spoilers below! ( + )

I haven't made a My Wu picspam in half a year and my collection has doubled in that time, oops. It now contains 2300 pictures of him (not counting his dramas). So, next up: the images in which he looks up at the camera - not too much so, just a slight angle, I'm very peculiar about that.

Other Wu Lei picspams so far: The Elf Look, Nothing But You, Amidst a Snowstorm of Love, The Young and Sporty Look, The Long Ballad

All 67 pics separately downloadable in full size from this gallery: https://postimg.cc/gallery/WJR5D83

or in one zip file here: https://www.mediafire.com/file/qf4k74we7mvy61y/wulei_picspam_look_up.zip/file

Enjoy!

In Flanders Field

War is terrible. It takes so many lives. It twists so many more. It ruins the good earth and all of those who live on it. 

And because war is horrific, we need to remember.

Then we have the responsibility to try our damndest to end it.

The GOP in the U.S. House just voted to stop Thomas Massie's 8 articles of impeachment against war crimes drunkard Pete Hegseth. 

All the Republicans. Even the ones on their way out, via retirement or election loss. The ones who theoretically should have nothing hanging over their pointy little heads to force them to do that. The ones who could just say "screw you" to Hegseth. They hate him. So I am forced to ask the following. 

What. The. Fuck. 

Could their housecleaning at home inadvertently thrown their spines out for good? Could the spines have been hanging safely in the bedroom closet, only for someone to sneak in, grab them, and pitch them into a wheelie bin?

I do not understand. I swear to fuck, I do not understand. 

OC Monday Time!

There's a new DW community called [community profile] oc_monday that offers prompts to think about your characters. ([personal profile] prettyarbitrary, is something like this worth considering for the Juices community if folks meander on over?)

From [community profile] oc_monday:
What is OC Monday?
An excuse to talk about your original characters, or to invite your followers to ask about them!

From me!
I'd be delighted by feedback or questions, as one of the best ways to create stories (I think) is to play with others, but even if not, I'm looking forward to spending a little time every week thinking of characters to keep my creative brain stoked.

Featuring characters from [community profile] everwood, as that story is the one I'll be spending the most time in. I may swap over the Hellgary characters if/when I swap comicking and RP focus.
Today: Boyce and Daphne featured.

On the AO3 outage: two rants

AO3 has been down since 29 October, and the organization estimates that it will likely take 2-4 weeks to restore the site. This is by far the longest downtime there's ever been for AO3 (and as people have pointed out, because AO3 relies on donations rather than subscriptions or ad revenue, it is a website in the very rare position of being able to HAVE this length of downtime in the first place, rather than having a team of engineers under incredible pressure to restore functionality before the nonfunctional site bleeds too much of its revenue).

( This lengthy downtime has caused a lot of drama )

I bought a heated mattress cover. I approve of the concept and the execution. Warm as toast.

I have heating ducts in the floor with plastic registers. The cats, lately, have made a game of trying to lift the registers which leaves an open space to the ducts.That was discouraged but I should have done something more to secure them. But I didn't.

Inevitably one day I walked into the laundry room, saw the open gap in the floor, and looking down, saw two flashing eyes look back at me. Inside the ducts. The small gray cat was curious. I reached in and of course she retreated. Ponder time. If she got in, she can get out. I tried food, Churu, irresistible. No deal.

So that was a frustrating half hour for both of us. I closed the door to the room so the Siamese didn't join the party. While I envisioned her crawling through the heating network. Don't think I didn't contemplate smoking her out by turning on the heat. I thought it.

So I tried again to lift her out. I looked into the void and the void looked back. If I made the opening bigger, take some of the insulation off. I think I could grab her. So as I was heading back to the room with hammer, screwdriver and a crowbar, when who comes two-stepping out the laundry room. Our little adventurer. Did that, bored now.

I have secured the ends of the ducts with duct tape.

Confusing Things in BG3

bemused_writer: Wizard arches eyebrow (Gale Dekarios 5)
[personal profile] bemused_writer
Despite all my play time, I still haven't figured out why all the True Souls aren't turning into illithids within the correct time frame. Supposedly, we aren't turning into one because of the Emperor, but it seems like everyone else has some kind of protection from the Absolute since they aren't immediately transformed, so why do we turn into one so quickly without him? I'd wonder if the Emperor were transforming us himself when we reject him except we do see the Absolute starting the transformation via cutscenes. So, why immediately transform a group of random adventurers instead of all those people in Moonrise Towers?

( Slight spoilers for Dark Urge below... )

Does anyone have any insight on either of these scenarios? Both why other characters aren't immediately transformed into illithids and what ability the tadpole is supposed to have given our allies?

The Amazing [livejournal.com profile] cathica ...

... had a birthday today (Sunday) and I'm running late, as usual, to wish her the absolute best one possible. 

It's been some time since we last interacted, which is a shame. She is a spectacularly good writer, and a good-natured, albeit a wryly observant one. She's tough and able to write horror that sucks you in somewhat against your own best intentions. That's amazing. 

I hope someday to meet her in person. Possibly next summer when I hope to have a visit to Canada. 

Here's to an excellent year to come for her.

CIA - ( Read more... )

Marshals - ( Read more... )

Eternally Yours - ( Read more... )

VisionQuest - ( Read more... )

Crew Girl - ( Read more... )

Coven Academy - I stopped watching it.... the 5-15 minute episodes? Bullshit. Don't get me wrong, it was very pretty and I wanted to love it so much - because witches man! And Tiffani Thiessen! But they should have just made it into a movie at that point.

Ghosts - ( Read more... )

Lanterns - ( Read more... )

Reacher Season 4/Neagley Season 1 - ( Read more... )

Best Medicine Season 2 - ( Read more... )

Haunted Hotel Season 2 - ( Read more... )

Seeking Persephone - ( Read more... )

And I think that might be it? It's not as descriptive as I would have preferred to have done a few weeks ago, but those thoughts have been lost probably.

I still need to see Clayface and the new Sense & Sensibility, I've been avoiding those tags so I'm not sure if they were any good or not.
