Not Looking for Words
Apr. 28th, 2022 10:51 pmwas rewatching my favorite Mentalist episode. ( discussion of racist moment in Bloodshot )but the rest of the writing is still fun, and it would have been so easy to just take that out.
When I write something problematic like that, because I will, either because society as constructed currently sucks, or because society as constructed currently sucks + I am not part of the minority group suffering, lemme know I screwed up, because I don't want to be a jerk, I want people to have fun reading my stuff, and it detracts from the work.
Anyway.
I thought about another blond who hides his pain behind smiles and flirting and a generally sunny attitude, started writing, went, "Wait, Apollo's more of the psychic...eh, that'll make it more interesting" and kept going. Patrick Jane as a character is interesting because here's a guy who's genuinely loving life and living in the moment and also 100% is living for revenge, and just--there's a lot of interesting nuance to the character that makes a fusion story fun.
Main Points:
Ace Attorney
Chapter Summary: Apollo gets accused of being a grump that hates fun, but it's a lot more complicated than that.
Word Count: 1753

Apollo and Klavier have a mutual crush
edgeworth is alluded to but does not actually appear
warning: hints of kristoph being a jerk
