Phew, done with all my exchanges except for 31_days_exchnge (which I really need to get started on). After reveals, I'll be fixing up my TWEWY fics a bit and posting them here. I probably won't post the art I did for gyakusai_swap.

...oh well, since the art is posted under my name, it's here if anyone's interested. Pearl + Phoenix, with a Christmas tree. Yes, very late with the Christmas part. It's not very polished, but nothing I draw is very polished ever. I do not know why Phoenix is in a box. He's supposed to be smaller and looking at the tree, but it didn't turn out that way. I decided to draw something instead of write fic since I couldn't come up with a fic scenario at all. Phoenix eludes me, and I don't seem to have a muse for GS1-3 anymore.

I read Houkago no Oujisama (the Prince of Tennis tribute) 2 and 3 today. It is hilarious. ♥ Can't wait for the next one. I hope to see Rikkai soon. Hyotei, St. Rudolph, Fudoumine, and Yamabuki have all made a brief appearance already. The Hyotei ones really got me laughing. ( especially these ones. )

While I was out on Tuesday, new decks were released over at anime_lj_tcg. There's now a Yuuki and Yuuta deck from Kimi to Boku, Elraine from Double Arts, and finally some Prince of Tennis ones. And even one Hetalia deck, but I haven't started on that webcomic yet. I love what people requested this time. :)

I visited the Ace Attorney official site today and read the developer's blog. Apparently, Case 2 was something the series director had always wanted to do since 10 years ago. That's almost unbelievable considering the kind of witness we got! I thought he was the typical nerdy student taken to an extreme...who knew he was in the works for so long. Heh, the blog also detailed how they chose the voice actors. Veeery interesting that they made everyone do all the characters and didn't even tell the voice actors which ones of their samples would get used.

Hahaha, and being able to yell "OBJECTION" into the mic was an addition because the American release team wanted it! Does anyone play that way? I can't get myself to yell that into the mic.

Moving on to AJ Case 3. Hm, I felt even more acutely in this case that it was weird not being able to present people's profiles. It doesn't make sense not being able to ask people what they think of so-and-so. DX

( more on case 3. (spoilerish of course) )

distutansu, I got your letter~! ♥ Thanks for the long letter and the drawing and the in character note is just so sweet. <3

I bought Apollo Justice on Wednesday but didn't have a chance to start until now. I've played that interactive flash demo of part of the first case before and wasn't all that interested in it then...but now I reaaaaally want to know what happened to Phoenix. >_>

On Apollo as the main character. Apollo's cute when he's thinking hard. He pushes his finger against his forehead and thinks HARD. XD Apollo's first case though...totally not run by him. And uh, his power to "perceive" is really weird. I'm not used to seeing "Justice" and thinking, oh yeah, that's the character I'm playing as. What a name.

Random quote!

"...the Cool Defense of the West..."

That totally reminds me of Detective Conan. Just swap the "Defense" out of that and replace with "detective" and viola!

( some thoughts on Case 1 )

Title: All it Takes is an Earthquake
Fandom: Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney / Gyakuten Saiban
Characters: Gumshoe+Edgeworth
Rating: PG
Word count: 1037
Summary: Gumshoe thinks Edgeworth is not as cold as people think he is. The detective is determined to make Mr. Edgeworth smile.

This was my second submission for yaoi_challenge. I wrote it very, very quickly, unlike the other fic. Here's the fic again with some more editting, as I really didn't get a chance to edit it before submission. The first fic is still under editting. ^^

( When Dick Gumshoe first meets Miles Edgeworth, his first impression is one of awe. )

athena8 and esrafil , I've received your cards! It was really such a coincidence that I received them on the same day. The two of you have the same first name! XD;; Just one letter different.  And then, one's in a red envelope and the other one green. Perfect for Christmas! They're both such cute cards. ♥
