I must ask you to draw the best character in the whole series:

Wendy Oldbag

There she is! Hope you like her Anon!

I want to think she always channeled gossipy old hen energy, even in her youth.

#ace attorney #wendy oldbag #she IS one of the best ace attorney characters and i'm GLAD to see her finally getting the attention she deserves!!#q

hello, asha here!

pleased to announce any death rumours are largely* unsubstantiated (although that’s not to say that life didn’t Try Me).

anyway, brief summary on what I’ve been up to:

• currently on long-term medical leave from work. please feel free to ask more in private, but posting anything more detailed on tumblr feels like making an official announcement in the town square.

• started my MA part-time. probably wouldn’t have started it this semester given everything else that ended up happening but the everything else probably wouldn’t have happened if I hadn’t started the MA. anyway! it’s in writing and literature. actually starting to feel like a “real writer” now which mostly comes with the realisation that I was a “real writer” the whole damn time. 🥲

• heading to the US for ~two weeks at the start of June. Start of June is what I have booked now but depending on how work stuff pans out I might extend it. friends in the north eastish region (basically anyway in around or between pittsburgh, new york city or boston give me a holler!)

BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY. KITTEN ALERT ‼️ KITTEN ALERT ‼️

One of my friends has been fostering a litter of kittens, and my partner and I went to have a look since we’d been discussing adding a third cat to the household.

Of course, it’s one of the bonded brothers that became immediately besotted with my fiancé and decided he was his human so anyway that’s how we ended up applying to adopt two kittens.

Just been approved and will be bringing them into our home later this week.

breaking my silence we as a fandom (collective) need to have a quick meeting. now look, we love praising fan artists and giving them lots of love which, hey they deserve it cuz they’re amazing and incredible and talented and should be revered but!! i think we need to give an equated amount of love to fanfic writers. these mfs are a) putting their time and effort into A NON PROFIT PIECE OF MEDIA entirely for their and our benefit just because they want to b) going through life threatening situations to get their chapters out c) using their talents to feed our delusions and desires d) making OUR LITTLE DUMB HEADCANONS COME TO LIFE!! THEY MAKE IT HAPPEN!! THEY MAKE IT REAL!! i will literally forever be indebted to fanfic writers bc no matter if their work gets 10000 hits 10 hits or stays in their notes app they STILL!! WROTE IT!! still took the time to carefully craft and mend their masterpiece!! made someone’s day even if it was their own!!! the fact that some of them come up with LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF WORDS OF FIC feels kinda undermined to me??? like mf they DID THAT AND NO ONE ASKED THEM TO? (mean that positively) LIKE THEY JUST DID? not to mention the research and genuine care that goes into some fics I’ve seen. and the fact that some try to make their fics accessible by writing it so anyone who isn’t even in the fandom understands the story?? anyway. fanfic writers all around not just mutuals (tho i love u guys) truly, you’re amazing. kindergarten teacher voice everyone say thank you fanfic writers. <3333333333

#waaaah you are gonna make me cry on the tram!!!#i hope to spend more time this year lifting up my fellow fic writers because yes. More appreciation and recognition!!!
