Thinkin about the symbolism in Pheonix viewing court like poker vs Edgeworth viewing court like chess and how it shows the difference between the defense side and the prosecution side.
Edgeworth views court as a chess match; in chess, both sides start on completely equal ground, with the same pieces on both sides, the only difference being the colors to differentiate who's who. The winner is the person with better tactics, who uses their pieces wisely, who makes less illogical moves.
Pheonix, on the other hand, sees court like poker, a card game in which the sides can never be equal, and you cannot be sure of who has the better hand, which gives way to bluffing and pretending you are doing well to persuade your opponent to back down, even if you have very little to go on. You have to weight logic vs chance, never knowing for certain that your opponent does not have a trump card on them. While being wise with your cards will get you far, luck is necessary to win.
This shows the difference between the prosecution and defense sides wonderfully, with the prosecution having all the access to the forensics, the witnesses, the crime scene, the privilege, while the defense has to catch up and do it all themselves, often in less time with less resources.
But even better, it shows why the prosecutors look down upon the defense's bluffing and conjecture, because if Edgeworth thinks this is like a chess game, then he assumes that the defense has equal information, not less information. Why do they need so much bluffing if all the pieces are the same, unless they are losing? Why do they act as though we have underhanded tricks when they use the smallest things to bring up? It is because on the defense's side, you know you have less intel than the prosecutors, you know your hand is worse, so you have to make everything count, because the only certainty you have is the trust in your defendant.

I did this sketch on halloween and decided to color it quickly. Is the ghost from juon, but with some changes cuz I felt like drawing crooked teeth, blank eyes, a way too big mouth and making her blue 😅😅😅
And finally, a week late, here there is Ned stark.
This drawing is the mix of my obsession with genshin taking over, playing too much d&d to the point of not having time to do anything else and art block. So my bestie and I started joking that I should do beheaded Ned. And because I wasn't very inspired... I did beheaded Ned.
In two weeks it's the turn of Jon Snow.
it's so brave of ryoko kui to make a canon butch lesbian elf character but also makes her the leonardo dicaprio of dunmeshi
So to recap, our Jonthan:
Scurried down a wall lizard fashion
Slammed a shovel into the face of the captor who gaslit and abused him for months
Stolen Dracula’s keys
Stolen some of Dracula’s money
Signed off saying that he intends to climb down a cliff to death or freedom since anything is better than being a vampire
And intending on how you interpret it, he may have done all this with maybe a half-pint of blood in his body.
Posting a pov character from asoiaf until winds of winter drops ✨ shitty doodle edition ✨:
Daenerys "Stormborn" Targaryen. (And baby dragons).
I finally did another one! Speaking of when things are finally done, hoping that in the new book she can start making some sort of comeback after that whole oopsie daisy bouquet at Mereen.
(Ps: In my mind painted vest equals the dothraki have a hobby besides pillaging, and they paint little drawings and patterns in their stuff).
(Another headcanon: Daenerys get's super sunburned easily on acount of the Targaryen being albino adjacent.
Because the irony of being the unburned, and looking red as a crab if the sun so much as grazes her is strong).
fuck it trick time
I reblog things I like and post drawings, sometimes. (ace attorney, jjba, asoiaf... brainrot)
