Last night, I finished "Justice for All!"

That game was... pretty fucking epic. Especially 2-4. 2-4 is easily my favorite case of both games 1 and 2. There were so many things about that case that made me love all the characters more than I already did. It was intense and desperate, so I really got the chance to see the character's true colors... and I liked what I saw. Maya, Edgeworth, Gumshoe, Franziska... they all really had their moments.

And then there is Phoenix. Watching him go through that emotional rollercoster almost broke my heart. He truly is a fascinating character. So many times during that case I forgot that he was just a game sprite instead of a real person.

Another cool thing about the case is that it really elaborated on Phoenix's relationships with the other characters. I loved the scenes between him and Gumshoe... if I could have one real ally in this world, I'd want him to be just like Gumshoe. And then there were the scenes with him and Franziska! Their relationship is pretty baffling... I'd say that it's almost love/hate. That's really the best way I can describe it, even though that label isn't entirely accurate.

A major part of the whole game was Phoenix's relationship with Edgeworth. The climax of that was, of course, in 2-4. As a shipper, I really liked the interaction, but I felt it was on the melodramatic side. Then again, this is Edgeworth we are talking about: "Melodrama" is his middle name. For better or for worse, Phoenix and Edgeworth complete each other. Those who played this game will know that this is not my fangirl mind at work.

My absolute favorite thing about 2-4 was Phoenix's relationship with Maya. The case was sufficient proof that they really do love each other. It's canon. Now, what kind of love is up to the game players to decide for themselves. On the surface, they have a very strong brother/sister bond. However, the game really made me love Phoenix/Maya as a pairing. I think it's a wonder that the pairing isn't more popular... it's so cute! Of course, I can see why people wouldn't like it. All during the first game, I couldn't even see the pairing happening. At all.

Actually, the interesting thing about the game is that all the characters have buttons that are pressed differently by all the different characters. Despite this, one of the (major) characters are in a romantic relationship with with any of the other characters. It's a shipper's playground! It's a wonder that I don't see more variety in the fandom... but I can't complain. After finishing such an awesome game, I'm feeling extremely content.

I already started on "Trials and Tribulations." I feel like I'm finally starting to catch up to the rest of the fandom. :')

HEEEEEEE!

Okay, so long story short, I used to live in Texas, and I had a lot of crap, so some of my stuff stayed in boxes in a warehouse in Tennessee when I moved to Tennessee.

:Db

Because my mom will be moving out of the house soon, my dad has taken it upon himself to transfer some of those boxes back to our house. I just unpacked a box that was filled with a bunch of my old childhood books (in addition to some manga... I forgot that I was a big Rumiko Takahashi fan back in the day).

One of my books was called "Mandie and the Secret Tunnel."

I hate movie theatres.

However, there was a film that I really wanted to see. Earlier tonight, I stepped into a cinema for the first time in seven months.

The film that I saw was Ben Stein's documentary, "Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed."

I liked it, although I did snicker at its major evocation of Godwin's Law.

I guess I could share my opinion on the issue of Evolution vs Intellegent Design, but I really don't feel like it. You guys can share with me your opinions on the matter if you want, but chances are good that I won't care about what you have to say.

....I'm just being honest. :C

HAPPY BIRFDAY, MUUUUUUUUUUU!

Last night, I dreamed that I got a bunch of fucking tattoos. :/

I got Mickey Mouse's head on my arm, the face of Edgar Allen Poe on my side, and a giant portrait of Phoenix Wright on the left side of my back. During the dream, I was contemplating getting an Edgeworth tattooed on the right side of my back.

For the record, I don't want to get any tattoos. If I had to, it would be of a unicorn riding a snowmobile, with the caption: "Born to be Danged".

Happy sigh

2008-04-26T05:54:36Z

It's been a good day for Avatards. I don't care what anyone says: 4chan is God's gift to the internet.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!

2008-04-24T22:17:12Z

Guess what.

I wrote fic. I actually wrote fic.

The Phoenix Wright Kink Meme has been a great source of inspiration for me... which is a little sad, but I'll take questionable inspiration over no inspiration. I already fulfilled two prompts via drawing, but last night I actually responded to a prompt with writing.

WRITING. OH GOD I ACTUALLY WROTE SOMETHING. WHY AM I SO PROUD OF THIS.

I'm not going to say what I wrote, naturally. For some reason, however, I feel the need to proclaim to my f-list that I contribute to the dang thing. AND THAT I HAVE BEEN BITTEN BY THE FAN FIC BUG. If you guys wanna guess what I wrote (all of my contributions have been to Part 6 thus far), go ahead. I wonder how obvious my writing style (since when do I have a writing style?) is.

Also, I still need moar PW icons.

OMG

2008-04-22T23:05:59Z

I just found out.

That new episodes.

Of Avatar the Last Airbender.

Will be showing.

On July 14.

HO SHIT THAT'S MY MOTHER FUCKING BIRTHDAY!!! 8DDDDDD

Best birthday ever, y/y?

Squicks (potential TMI?)

2008-04-21T17:26:45Z

oneinnabun asked me if there is anything that squicks me.

.............

You know, that's a very good question. XD;

After visiting gurochan.net, I realized that there are not many things that squick me. Two of my favorite manga deal heavily with common squicks: "Mai-chan's Daily Life" and "Kodomo no Jikan". If you haven't heard of those titles, read the Wikipedia articles.

What squicks you? Inflation? Lolicon? RPS? These things don't really bother me. This is not to say that they are interests of mine, but I can usually find lulz in such things. I'm not a sexual fiend. I just have an off-color sense of humor.

Thanks to ED, I can even find humor in the one thing that ever truly appalled me: hentai that is sexist against women. That... that kind of stuff actually makes up most of the mainstream hentai market. Of course, I realize my double standard: a favorite genre of mine is femdom. I still cringe at pictures of Sailor Mercury being mercilessly raped, but when I remember that I would enjoy a picture of Sailor Mercury mercilessly raping her would-be rapist, I just laugh.

I mean, these things are just pictures, you know? What kind of people draw them? What kind of people look at them? In the end, we are all just a bunch of nerds. We may be creepy, but we are harmless.

Maybe there's something wrong with me, but I guess the truth is that I don't have any honest-to-God squicks. There are things that I don't like, but I'm not about to be revolted by something that some geek drew (or wrote). Live and let live, you know?

I'll close by saying this: I have learned the hard way that although not much bothers me, I should still be empathetic towards the sensibilities of my friends. It's a good trait to be able to perceive what line you shouldn't cross with certain people. It's harder over the internet, because I can't see your facial expressions and what not, but I am trying. However, now you all know that you can talk to me about anything. Are you a necrophiliac? Don't worry, I won't judge you.

Another meme snagged from Mu!

2008-04-19T17:26:01Z

Everyone has things they blog about. Everyone has things they don't blog about. Challenge me out of my comfort zone by telling me something, ask a question, or name a subject that I don't blog about, but you'd like to hear about, and I'll write a post about it. Ask for anything: latest movie watched, last book read, my religion, political leanings, insecurities, thoughts on yaoi, favorite type of underwear, graphic techniques, etc.

I usually keep my more controversial opinions to myself for two reasons: I don't feel like arguing, and I figure that you guys don't care much about my views on things. However, in case you do care, now's your chance to get to know me better. Ask me anything, and I'll answer honestly. :)

Dayyum. This fucking nailed me.

2008-04-17T23:23:32Z

Mu did this on her journal, and I couldn't resist doing it myself. XD;

This test is surprisingly accurate!

Today was pretty damn good. Long and tiring, but good.

I found out that I have more in common with my co-workers than I ever thought possible. When I got in this morning, my shift-leader Ben was singing "Popular" out loud while he worked. XD Not only does he have a great voice, but he knows the words to many of my favorite showtunes. We sang songs from "Wicked" and "Avenue Q" together until my other co-workers showed up.

We had a pretty slow day, so we were able to chat amongst ourselves a lot more than usual (don't worry; we still got all the work done XD). As it turns out, we're all big nerds. I used the terms "shipping" and "slash" and "/b/tard" and "CAPSLOCKER" they both knew what I meant. Turns out that Kayla, one of my co-workers, likes to RP here on El Jay just like I do.

We don't just talk about our hobbies. We also discuss politics and things of a more serious nature. When I found out that both Ben and Kayla were Pro Life, I was ecstatic. It truly is a blessing to find people who not only share your hobbies, but share your most treasured views as well. I've only been with these people for a few days, but it already feels like we are good friends.

Okay, so I'm gushing. It might even seem like I'm bragging. Last year, I worked at a cinema, with a lot of really condescending, lazy, bitter, and bitchy people. It was pretty much hell. I just want to emphasize how damn lucky I am to be working in a place with people who I love being with. I want to savor my situation while it lasts. I won't be working at Quiznos forever, and eventually, the people I'm working with will also move on to bigger and better things. Who you work with is just luck of the draw.

Lately, whenever I try to draw something, it ends up looking terrible. Like, even the act of drawing has become tedious. I'm trying to plow through a commission right now... I want to finish it as soon as possible, but I also want it to be a work of quality.

I think it's safe to say that I shouldn't become a cartoonist after all. I suppose that the username that I chose for myself at the age of 13 is a bit pretentious. Kartoon Kween indeed...

Anyway. Yesterday, I saw "Sweeney Todd" for the first time. After seeing so many negative reviews on F!S, I wasn't really expecting much, but I ended up loving the film. It had everything a movie should have: buckets of blood and musical numbers.

I always wait for movies to come out on DVD before seeing them. After working in a cinema last year, I have grown to loath them. I have absolutely no idea what's playing right now.

I want to see "Across the Universe" like burning. I need to drive down to Walmart and pick up a copy. With my new job, I can actually afford to spend money on a movie every now and then.

MY EDGEWORTH ICON.

HE IS HAVING A HEART ATTACK.

A HEART ATTACK OF ABSOLUTE JOY.

GOOGLE "PERFECT PROSECUTOR" TO FIND OUT WHY.

I smell like mayonnaise.

2008-04-08T22:52:06Z

Okay, so my first day at work was pretty much awesome. I absolutely adore the people I'm working with. They're not bitchy or condescending; in fact, they are quite friendly and helpful. My shift leader said I was a fast learner. :3

Basically, what I'm doing is a little bit of everything save for sandwich making and register. That means I'm doing a lot of cleaning, meat/cheese slicing, sauce restocking, salad preparing, sandwich wrapping, and dish washing. As I learn more and more, I will work my way up to register and sandwich making as well.

Hahahaha guess what? A health inspector came in for a surprise visit, and on my first day no less. Our score was an 88 out of 100, for those who are curious. I was told that usually the store's score would have been in the 90s, but one of the dish-washing sinks broke down, costing us about 5 points.

The restless feeling I've been experiencing is gone now... employment does much to the psyche. My spirit feels renewed, so expect some art from me soon. If I don't start posting some pictures within the next few weeks, feel free to slap me with your e-cocks. No, really. I deserve it. ;A;

GAH!

2008-04-08T00:27:49Z

Tomorrow, I start work. Also, my Photoshop is acting up on me, which is the reason why I haven't presented any arts recently. Plus, I have this sort of restless feeling which causes me to stop what ever I'm doing in favor of taking long walks outside.

Also also, what's a fan gotta do in order to get some decent Edgeworth/Maya fic around here? I mean, I like P/E as much as the next fan, but come on!

You know what? Fuck art! Fuck the internet! Fuck fandom!

BRB, REAL LIFE.

I... I have one of those, you know. D:

Three days later...

2008-04-01T19:16:13Z

Well, I think the caffiene is finally starting to wear off.

Anyway, I'm going to a job interview today! Yaaaay! Hopefully I will become the newest worker at Quiznos. Finally, my sandwich-making skills will propell me towards bigger and brighter things.

You guys didn't know that I have mad sandwhich-making skills, did you? Well, now you know.

WHY, YES! I DO HAVE A SOCIAL LIFE!

2008-03-30T05:07:35Z

Well, I just got back from another card night. You see, some of my Sunday School buddies like to get together and do activities together, at places, for some time. Sometimes, we go to Starbucks to play cards.

Tonight was such a night.

I love my Sunday School buddies. ;_; We're all females... late teens to mid twenties. I'm pretty sure that I'm the youngest at 18, but whatev!

Anyway, I wanted to be hardcore, so I ordered a hardcore drink.

BLACK COFFEE WITH SIX SHOTS OF EXPRESSO. 8D 8D 8D

God, I am so wired. I don't have the shakes, but there is no way that I'm getting any sleep tonight. I PROMISE THAT I AM TOTES GONNA WORK ON ART, INSTEAD OF PLAYING PHOENIX WRIGHT.

I'm in the process of making myself some PW icons, btw. It's gonna be rad. I'm thinking of making myself an Edgeworth mood theme, even though I really like the one I have now. Lolcats ftw!

Anyway, art. I'm going to work on commissions. I'm also going to work on a SUPER SEEKRIT project that I'm doing for CAPSTARA. I'm hoping that they will get a kick out of it.

kartoon_kween @ 2008-03-27T14:34:00

2008-03-27T19:48:10Z

HAY, FELLOW ARTISTS! 8D

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN IN A SITUATION IN WHICH YOU NEED/WANT TO DRAW SO MANY THINGS, THAT YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO START?

'CAUSE, THAT'S THE SITUATION I'M IN RIGHT NOW.

ALSO, LOLOLOL I SHOULD BE DOING ENGLISH HOMEWORK INSTEAD OF ART ANYWAY.

Anywho, I'm about to go job hunting. I can't do odd-jobs at my dad's warehouse forever (even if it is a family business). I'm all tarted up, because employers don't like hiring people who look like slobs. I should probably take a photo of myself today, since I'm dressed up anyway. Not that I have a camera. Or photography skills.

What will I do with a steady flow of income? Pay off student loans, of course, but what else? Fancy new art software? Manga? Anime? Video games? ~~Vibrators?~~

Nah. I think I'm just gonna buy myself some new clothes. I-I need new cloths. I basically have two outfits that I alternate. Lessee... I have two old pairs of sweatpants, one pair of blue jeans, and two T-shirts (both of them are "The Beatles" related). That's pretty sad. Actually, right now I'm wearing one of my sister's cute shirts because I don't have any of my own. In other words, it has become painfully obvious that I have reached the age in which my parents don't buy me clothes anymore.

Of course, I hate receiving clothes as gifts. Does anybody? I mean, the size is always wrong, or the article of clothing just isn't my taste.

ANYWAY. CLOTHES. DO WANT. WILL GET.

...AS SOON AS I GET MONEY.

（´・ω・｀）

NEEDS MOAR PW ICONS

2008-03-26T21:34:36Z

Well, I finally finished my first Phoenix Wright game. Hooray! I have the second and third games on my shelf, waiting for me. I plan on shelling out some cash for a DS of my own, so I don't have to keep borrowing my sister's. I'll probably get the dark blue one, even though the pink one is super cute and reminds me of Princess Peach. If they ever come out with a wine red DS, I'm buying that one. I can only dream.

Man. I sort of have a tendency to neglect my journal for days, and then write tl;dr entries in-between those time gaps.

Like, my weekend was great, guys. On Saturday, I was on my computer, doing some artwork for ATLARP, when my dad comes in my room saying that he hasn't seen me all day. That's when I sort of as him if he wanted to go outside with me to toss a football around.

We don't have a football.

WE HAVE A FRISBEE.

ALSO, IT WAS SUPER WINDY OUTSIDE.

SO WE THREW THE FRISBEE AT EACH OTHER FOR A WHILE, THEN DECIDED TO FLY A KITE INSTEAD.

On Sunday, I celebrated Easter because, lol Christian. I ate soooooo many Peeps this year. WTF I HATE PEEPS.

And then, for the next few days, I did some stuff that I can't remember doing. I do remember downloading uTorrent, so I could illegally obtain a dating sim that I've wanted to play for years. It's called "Kana: My Little Sister". I wanna play it, because the storyline is said to be superior, plus the game is supposed to be a real tear-jerker. I LIKE TEAR-JERKERS, GUYS. BECAUSE I'M A SENSITIVE PERSON. REALLY, I AM.

ANYWAY. The game took two days to download, and when it downloaded, I couldn't open it. So, I downloaded Daemon Tools. BUT DAEMON TOOLS WON'T OPEN, EITHER.

WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?!! This whole torrent thing is more trouble than it's worth. I'll probably just give up and buy the damn game like I'm supposed to.

SO, I GUESS THAT'S PRETTY MUCH BEEN MY WEEK. Right now, I'm doing artwork of the animu HSR variety.

Oh, yeah. You know you're curious.

HAPPY GOOD FRIDAY

2008-03-21T04:54:55Z

Wooooo!

2008-03-19T19:13:12Z

Bragging teim is now.

I just got out of Acting class. Our assignment was to bring a monologue to class and read it. I chose "Wasted Youth" by Jim Steinman, which is can be heard on Meat Loaf's album, "Bat out of Hell II: Back into Hell". We were graded on a scale of 1 to 30 points, and my grade was 30+++/30.

I thought the three extra plusses were a bit much, but damn do I feel good about myself! It never hurts to feel good about yourself once in a while, right? And hay, at least this journal post isn't another fannish rambling!

Speaking of fannish ramblings, it's time for a Phoenix Wright update!

I'm nearing the end of the fith case (I think). It's without a doubt the craziest case so far, and the funniest episode. The episode introduced characters that are simply outrageous, and I love it. Edgeworth is still my favorite character by far (HURRRRRR), but Ema has really made her way into my heart. She and Phoenix make a much better team than Phoenix and Maya, in my humble opinion.

Despite this, I suddenly started shipping Ema with Edgeworth. This shouldn't shock anyone, as I ship Edgeworth with everyone, and Phoenix with no one (except for Edgeworth).

I should be asleep right now.

2008-03-16T07:00:31Z

Today was swell! :D

First off, I got my hair done. I don't have before and after pics, but trust me when I say that it looked awful before, but now it looks really cute.

Next, I got a new cell phone. The only reason why I wasted 40 bucks on a new phone was because I lost my old one. I need to remember to buy one of those cell phone cases that have chains that attatch to one of your belt loops. Can't loose a phone that's attatched to your pants! Unless... you know.... you loose your pants. Some how.   Sharks? Could be involved? Or perhaps fire?

Oh! Tonight I saw "Bee Movie" for the first time, because my dad bought the DVD! The movie was insanely cute, and really loony. I could write a comparitive essay: "Bee Movie" vs "Ratatouille".   I won't of course, because it would be tl;dr, and I'm lazy. I will say that I believe that "Bee Movie" accomplished what "Ratatouille" didn't.  "Ratatoullie" takes itself too seriously, but "Bee Movie" acknowledges the fact that its premise is ridiculous.  Everyone says that Pixar is the greatest, but I personally think that Dreamworks usually produces the films that are more fun.

Phoenix Wright update: I'm almost done with the fourth case. Remember, how in a previous post, I said that I was reserving judgement on the whole "Phoenix/Edgeworth" deal? Well, I have made my judgement (for now). But first, a digression:

When I got into the ATLA fandom, I was determined that I would not ship Zutara. I thought that it was so... common. After all, if it's popular, it must be bad, right? Right? Because the majority of people are stupid, right? Right?

Well, the assholes at CAPSLOCK_ZUTARA made me realize that Zutarians are awesome and that Zutara is both teh lulz and teh sex. Thanks a lot, you jerks. I wanted to be an elitest douchebag, but know I can't! >:T

I still don't consider myself a Zutarian, because the only reason why I truly like Zutara is because of the fandom. Based on what I've seen in the show, I really like Toko better. Toph and Zuko haven't had much interaction in the show (yet), but the ship makes sense to me, personally. I'd site examples in the show of how their situations and choices parallel each other's, but this post is already so long....

Even though Toko is my OTP, Zutara comes as a close second. One of the reasons why I would like to see it become canon is because the Kataangers have been acting so damn smug about their ship. I'd love to see the tables be turned on them, right at the last minute! Plus, the steaminess (lolololol) that is Zutara cannot be denied.

Well, this digression has gone long enough. When I started playing PW, I was hoping that I wouldn't end up shipping P/E, because everyone else was doing it. Besides, when I started playing the game, I just couldn't see it. I wanted to ship Phoenix/Maya, but as I played the game for a while, it became clear to me that their chemestry.... doesn't really strike me as ship worthy. Maya is too much of a ditz for Phoenix, and Phoenix often belittles Maya (which I don't approve of, even if Maya does act a bit dim at times). I'm still toying around with the idea of Maya/Edgeworth, btw. That ship has... potential, I think.

Actually, for a while, I didn't think that I could ship Phoenix with anybody. His snide thoughts that belittled others prevented me from thinking that he was really relationship material. And then, along came the big revelation that happens during the fourth case. I won't elaborate, as it's a major spoiler, but those who played the game should know exactly what I'm talking about.

Here's the dillema: if I ship P/E, I'm a sellout. If I don't (based on the reason that I explained earlier), I'm an elitist.

....I guess I'm a sellout.

:D

LET'S LEARN SOME SHIT ABOUT ME! :D

2008-03-14T05:08:34Z

Well, here's a meme that I stole from dutchtoast .

1. Is it difficult for you to look into some one's eyes when you are telling them how you feel?
It depends on the person and the intensity of said feeling.

2. You are on a flight from Honolulu to Chicago non-stop. There is a fire in the back of the plane. You get enough time to make ONE phone call. Who would you call?
I would call my best friend. I would appologize for having to leave him, but I would also tell him to have faith that we will meet again in eternity.

3. Who do you have most in common with?
I have some things in common with a guy friend who goes to my old college. We are both geeky fatties with glasses... very adorable geeky fatties with glasses. :3

4. You are at the doctor's office and she has just informed you that you have approximately one month to live.

(A) What do you do with your remaining days?
Draw. Draw like the wind. So many things to get done... so little time...

Hmmmm. On second thought, I might spend that month praying like hell.

My legacy on Earth.... or the fate of my eternal soul. It's a tougher choice than you would think.

(B) Would you be afraid?
Perhaps. I can't say for sure. It's likely. The real question is what I would be afraid of. Would I be afraid of death? Life after death? Abandoning those close to me?

I'm sure that the most intense emotion I would feel would be regret; not fear.

5. You can have one of the following two things: trust/love.
Trust. I would rather have trust without love than love without trust.

6. You are walking down the street on your way to work. There is a dog drowning in the canal on the side of the street. Your boss has told you if you are late one more time you get fired. What do you do?
Peh. Let the beast drown. I eat meat, don't I? Letting an animal drown in a canal is no different from eating a steak.

Naw, I'm just pulling your leg. I'd save the dog.

7. If you could go anywhere in the world where would you go?
Japan.

Yeah, yeah. "Lol Weeaboo", right? Well, fuck you guys. It just so happens that I have family in Japan, and that I wanted to travel there since way before I even knew what anime was.

8. Think of the last person who you really knew that died. You have the chance to give them 1 hour of life back, but you have to give one year of your life. Would you?
Fuck no. The last person who died was my great grandfather, and he was as old as hell itself. Besides, he's in Heaven right now. Why would he want to come down on Earth, even for an hour?

9. Are you the kind of friend that you would want to have as a friend?
No. I'm the kind of person I'd want as a lover. That's why I'm still single: I'm waiting for scientists to perfect cloning.

10. How would you die, if you had a choice in the matter?
I would drown. In a swimming pool. On a cruise ship. In the middle of the ocean.

11. Your best friend dies, what would you do?
It depends on how he died.

If it were an accident or an illness that took his life, I would grieve and move on.

If it were a murder, I would avenge him. No joke.

12. When was the last time you told someone HONESTLY how you felt?
It's hard to say. I have a fuzzy memory. It was probably when I left class today: I told my teacher to "have a nice day". I really meant it... my teacher's a good person.

13. What would be harder for you, to tell someone you love them or that you don't love them back?
The second one. This experience is heart-breaking... just because you don't love someone does not mean that you do not pity them.

14. What do you think would be the hardest thing for you to give up on?
Masturbation.

TMI? Sorry. I didn't want to lie.

15. Excluding romantic love, when was the last time you told someone you loved them?
A few hours ago. I was on the phone with my grandfather, and as per usual, I ended the conversation by saying "I love you".

16. If you had to go back in time and change one thing, if you HAD to, even if you have "no regrets", what would you change?
I would stop Kennedy from getting shot. He was going to disband the CIA!!! I'm all for disbanding creepy government organizations.

17. Imagine. It is a dark night, you are alone, it is raining outside, you hear someone walking outside your window. Who do you call?
First, I'd wait and listen. The person outside might be a family member. If I felt threatened enough, I would call the cops. Shoot, there's no way I'm getting robbed! Or murdered!

18. Would you give a homeless person CPR if they were dying?
Of course. That reminds me... I should probably re-learn how to give CPR. :/

19. Are you old-fashioned?
Shit. What do you think?

20. Which would you choose, true love with a guarantee of a heart break or have never loved before?
I whish I had a choice in the matter. If I truly did, I would choose the second option.

Phoenix Wright

While everyone's glued to their TV screens, playing Brawl, I'm glued to my little sister's DS, playing Phoenix Wright.

That's right! Yesterday, I went out and bought the first two games! After hearing about them non stop on F!S, I had to see what the hype was about.

I must say that I'm enjoying the game very much so far. Then again, I've always loved the mystery/suspense/court genres. When I was little, I read many of the "The Boxcar Children" books. When I got older, I would piss away time watching Court TV. I would also watch shows like "Law and Order" with my dad. I loved and still love the cartoons "Cased Closed" and "Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law". Given my entertainment choices in the past, I'm baffled at why I didn't get the PW games before.

Well, they were expensive when the first came out.... plus, I'm not much of a gamer. Still, I'm very glad that I took a chance and bought the games.

I love playing as Phoenix. He's a very "Mr. Smith" type of guy, and I admire that. Plus, he cracks me up. I also love Edgeworth... for no other reason than because I think he's hot. His voice... his body language... his facial expressions... his ruffly collar.... it's ridiculous how much I am turned on by a game sprite.

I don't slash these characters with each other.... at least not yet. I'm reserving judgement. Besides, I like the idea of Phoenix being staight. I don't really have a reason; I just do. Maybe it's just because he reminds me just of Lloyd from "ToS".... if only just a little bit.

(Yes, I ship Lloyd/Collette. It's cute!)
