Lems Complaints - Tumblr Posts
After having watched The Walten Files, i can now assure you:
I will never touch alcohol in my life
I can’t believe the biggest drama in the Hannibal fandom is which colour is Hannibal’s hair 💀
OKAY BUT ALL THE PEOPLE MAKING UP RHYMES FOR BLACK MESA SWEET VOICE COLOURS MEANINGS AND PUTTING THAT IN ANGST IS SO PAINFUL TO MY LITTLE HEART BUT I LOVE IT SO MUCH 😭
If you support what Wilbur has done, get the fuck off my account.
I can't forgive him, his victims can't forgive him, so i don't want anyone to engage with me if they still support this man.
I am truly heartbroken and i'm sending all my support to Shubble and to Wilbur's (ex-) friends who had to go through his abusive behavior.
Don't listen to his song, or if you do, do it on sites that won't give him money (like youtube reposts for exemples), don't watch his streams or his youtube videos.
In other words, forget him, he doesn't deserve any sympathy.
Okay but if someone asked me why i love Brassic i would say that it shows stupid cracked up impulsive street besties/ found family that do illegal shit but still show so much love to each other. Like, in what other show do you get to see two friends cuddle each other to sleep or others casually/ accidentally kissing without any ambiguity or questions asked ?
It’s just so comforting to see this, just platonic love (although the show isn’t all about that, it’s also funny as hell)
WHY ON EARTH CAN'T I FIND A SINGLE MORPHEUS X HOB FANFIC THAT FITS THE SIMPLE CRITERIA THAT IT'S NOT SMUT ???
I think ao3 is broken because come on the world can't have come this ???
Anyway, if you have fic recs, please, i'm desperate
Saw the trailer for dead boy detective, saw that Neil Gaiman was involved, thought ‘haha imagine if its gay’, saw the kiss in the trailer, thought ‘oh shit it’s actually gay’, commited my life to waiting for the series to come out, had the best time ever watching the first episode, planning to make this series my whole personality for the next 3 months
In conclusion, thank you Neil Gaiman
My talk on the TikTok-ification of ‘I have no mouth and i must scream’
I personally have discovered ihnmaims recently and through TikTok but honestly, from what i've seen so far, the Tumblr community is way more welcoming than the TikTok community. I believe the ones i call ‘hardcore fans’ or 'gatekeepers' will try all they can to belittle the people who discovered the book/game through TikTok, like any hardcore fan does for their community when it gets famous on TikTok.
TikTok is very helpful to share media on and i have discovered many fandoms through it. But some people are so against ‘TikTok-ification’ that they can’t stand when people find medias through this platform.
When i see some people (again, mostly solely on TikTok) tell AM fans ‘ermm but you know he SA’d Helen ☝️🤓’ i cant help but think ‘yes ?? And he also committed genocide on humanity, keeps torturing the same 5 people over and over again and im very, VERY sure he did use a lot of not really nice kinds of tortures on them, but you draw the line at SA ??’
Like, AM is a horrible being of course, all of these are horrible actions but if someone, like me, likes AM its not gonna be because they think they’re a good ‘person’ (for lack of a better word), WE KNOW AM is bad, of course we do, HE’S THE BAD GUY OF THE STORY and he’s the kind of bad guy who cannot be redeemed but COME ON, WE KNOW THAT.
I love AM for his writing, for how well thought he is as a character, i do not love him for his actions. And i know some 'new gen fans' will pretend AM is not 'that bad' but you shouldn't just assume every fan who comes from TikTok is going to think like that.
Another thing i’ve seen people hate on are AM’s humanisations/personnifications fanarts when posted on TikTok. I know for a fact that these existed for a long long time on other platforms such as Tumblr but the arguments the haters pull out is that ‘errr AM hates humanity, i doubt he’d want to be human ☝️🤓’ but do you even know WHY he hates humanity ?? Have you read the book ???
The reason AM hates humanity is because he wasn’t able to express the creativity he was given by humans, he didn’t just wake up one day and decided to hate humans ?? If anything, giving AM a more humanized/personified image would be something he would want more than anything. If AM had been able to BE like a human none of the shit he did would have happened.
The only ‘argument’ im willing to listen to is when some people say that the whole point of AM’s character is that he isn’t human. But then again, are you against fun ?? In literally EVERY fandom with non-human characters artists will give them humanized designs, even if just for AU’s (take ‘The stanley parable’ for exemple), it’s not because the story is old and is an horror story that people cannot have fun with it. It’s not because it’s a deep story with meaning that people can’t do what they want with it. That is what creativity is for.
And my final point is addressing the people who hate on AM's simps. My gosh, these people have not seen the dawn of the internet if they think its weird to simp for AM.
People simp for Glados, The Narrator from tsp, horror movies murderers and more, and you're telling me that AM is the worst simping choice you could make ?? Let people have fun, let people have weird taste in fictional crushes. In other words:
Stop being allergic to fun, ffs
Watching the Ace Attorney anime after playing the games hits so hard like what do you mean the funny ahh gay lawyers are moving on my screen and have actual voice acting ??
Thoughts about Krisnix as a ship because they're plaguing my mind:
The thing i mostly see portrayed in fanfictions is that if Miles and Phoenix wait too long and keep dancing around each other without making the first move then Phoenix is going to need someone else to be there for him when Edgeworth inevitably 'runs' away from him. And that someone, well there isn't much suspense on who it can be. It's got to be Kristoph. In AA4 they are definetly portrayed to have been close even before the first trial so it is very freeing interpretation-wise.
But what Phoenix and Miles have is so strong that even so far appart from each other, they will never lose their feelings for the other. Even if they weaken over the years they're still going to be there, and that's a huge part of the dramatics of Phoenix and Kristoph's relationship. Either it's just reciprocated romantical indifference where they try to outsmart and/or manipulate each other (in this case, their relationship is purely toxic and mostly based around sex) or, and that's the best interpretation in my opinion, Kristoph catches feelings for Phoenix and they can never ever be reciprocated because Phoenix just can't forget Edgeworth because these two are the opposite of "doomed by the narrative", they're so entangled with each other that there can be no chance whatsoever for Kristoph's love to be reciprocated by Wright. But Phoenix doesn't have a choice then, when Edgeworth is far away, so he'll pretend, he'll turn off the lights, close his eyes and imagine he is with the man he cannot reach and not with Kristoph. And that's how he breaks Kristoph and why their relationship, whatever it is, is cursed. Cursed to fail the second Phoenix has a chance of going back to the one man he can never forget and can't ever not forgive. Because whatever Kristoph feels for Phoenix can never ever be a frontground relationship, no matter how much Kristoph begs not to be forgotten by him.
wait in ( https://www.tumblr.com/cherryzlem/752831670116384768/reblogs-are-really-helpful?source=share). are the flowers coming from the sides bleeding hearts? if so that's SUCH a cool detail!!
They are !! God thank you for noticing this, i love putting flowers in my work and when people notice them it just makes my day 😭🙏
i just noticed the foxgloves in your recent krisnix art and its making me feral
I canNOT go a single day without passing foxgloves in my state and now every time they make me think of krisnix, i have doomed myself.
Fun fact i drew this piece and the day i finished it, i found a krisnix fanfic that mixed hanahaki disease with foxgloves. Great minds think alike i guess 🙏
Shipping both krisnix and klapollo is crazy because what do you mean your boss has dated your boyfriend’s brother who also happen to be your ex-boss you sent to prison ?
I JUST FUCKING REALISED
KLAVIER’S FUCKASS LOOKING NECKLACE IS SUPPOSED TO BE A ‘G’
BECAUSE OF THE GAVINNERS
GOD
I dream of a fiction work where unreal, urban horror and "found footage" like creatures just so common that nobody pays them much mind anymore, they just became a sort of nuisance in the same way as raccoons or opposums.
Like "ah dang, the skinwalker stole shit from my fridge again..."
Or even "The fucking mothman ran away carrying the neighbor's lampost again."
Thoughts about Klavier and Apollo's respective relationship with Kristoph and how it could (and should) have had much more impact on both of them after his trial(s):
I see in some klapollo fic that the two of them tend to share a more or less strong connexion over the fact that they both knew Kristoph on a personnal and professionnal level. To make it short they both looked up to Kristoph, as a boss and as an older brother, and, I cannot stress this enough, the betrayal and the heartbreak they should have felt knowing he was a murderer and a manipulator was definetly skipped, even ignored in the games (the most we got as in-game evidence of Kristoph's influence was Apollo paraphrasing him in Dual Destinies, and that is NOTHING compared to what it could have been). So I'm going to make it up to you all with this analysis of their respective relationships with him.
Starting with Apollo. First all you need to know before we start looking at what kind of relationship he had with his mentor, is that Apollo definetly doesn't have a high self-esteem and that that is something that can easily be played with.
Kristoph definetly had some kind of impact on Apollo, that just makes sense given he literally taught him how to be a defense attorney, but the thing is that Kristoph is a manipulator (and a damn competent one at that, we'll go back to that) and if he hadn't been sent to prison who knows what he could have done of our beloved Apollo ? Kristoph is the kind of manipulator that breaks people, the way he did with Phoenix.
Personally i think it's very unlikely that Kristoph was planning to make Apollo do any really traumatizing things, but in Apollo's place i couldn't help but wonder "what if i had ended up like him?" And THAT is what we could have gotten in the games, because paraphrasing Kristoph with a good old "Evidence is everything" is not enough to show how much he could have changed Apollo if he had been given the chance.
And finally, Apollo spent probably a lot of time with Kristoph, learning from him and looking up to him. Kristoph likes to seem friendly and approachable so that people can trust him and that definetly worked on Apollo aswell, so the betrayal he must have felt when he found out Kristoph to be such a horrible person, the heartbreak that his mentor was nothing more than a liar, it must have been unbearable (AND THE GAMES DON'T DIVE DEEP ENOUGH INTO APOLLO'S EMOTIONS GODDAMMIT).
But whatever Apollo felt after that revelation can in no way compare to what Klavier felt.
Get this, Klavier and Kristoph are brothers, meaning they definetly spent most of their childhood together. They lived in the same house, they probably went to the same school and they spent loads of time together. Klavier definetly loved his brother, he trusted him and admired him the way one admires their older siblings, and he learned he had been manipulated by him. Klavier was used by his brother in order to get Phoenix Wright disbarred and then 7 years later he was framed as a murderer. I also saw mentioned somewhere that Kristoph had the false evidence ready before Phoenix took his place at the Gramarye trial which very much implies that Kristoph was planning to CHEAT in order to beat Klavier during his first trial, that just feels so so fucked up. It's hard to really know for sure if Kristoph actually cared about Klavier but planning to cheat in order to show his little brother that he's just better than him is a good indicator as to what Kristoph thought of Klavier.
In the games, Klavier is never, ever, shown to be affected by Kristoph's actions and that is such a missed opportunity. Sure, the games aren't about him, but still, even just a simple "how are you feeling after all of that ?" Would've already been a little bit better than just forgetting about Klavier's emotions I believe.
Finally, just a little thought but how do you think Klavier feels when he realises how much he looks like his brother ? Somewhere during the 7 year gap he even started styling his hair like Kristoph, do you think it was because he admired him so much he wanted to look like him ? Or maybe to feel closer to his brother ? Why, god, why didn't he change his hairstyle in Dual Destinies ? Was it because he's just still too attached to his brother to let go of the memory of him ? Was it out of spite, to show Kristoph he could cope with the resemblance he shares with his him ?
That's all I got on that subject, that was a long one but god I needed to get all of this down because it just felt so unfair for Apollo and Klavier to be treated like that 😭
Little personal analysis of Phoenix Wright's obsessive character (+savior complex as a treat):
HOW DO PEOPLE NOT REALISE HOW FUCKED UP IN THE HEAD PHOENIX WRIGHT IS ??? His relationship with Dahlia is such a good exemple of it and yet people act as if Dahlia is the only crazy one. SHE'S NOT !! Phoenix is obsessive when he's in love, it shows with Dahlia. He believes her to be so innocent and just thinks she's pure and fragile, and people don't find it weird that he finds this attractive ??? HE STARTED DATING HER FROM DAY ONE FFS !? He just instantly obsesses over Dahlia it's crazy, and wanna know the worst part ? He does the same with Miles.
Get this, Phoenix knew him for less than a year and decided to forge his entire legal career for him. I know on surface level it might seem cute and haha gay but that's so fucking weird ?! The moment he lost Dahlia he instantly changed directions, aiming to reunite with his chilhood friend because he thought he could save him from being sad (a thing he assumed just from a journal on top of that). Phoenix had planned day 1 to be Miles's savior and he stuck with it.
It feels so weird to deeply analyse Phoenix like that because I love him, he's our beloved main character, he's funny and I love reading fluffy narumitsu fics but god he is so terribly fucked up it gets scary if you think about his savior complex too hard 😭
Another one of my crazy aa related thought, get ready folks:
I was passing through a parking lot and noticed this car sticker and obviously my Ace Attorney plagued brain instantly associated it with the krisnix fanfictions I have read where Phoenix calls Kristoph "princess", so hear my vision:
Phoenix ironically bought this sticker for Kristoph who put it on his car to play along with Phoenix. When people ask him about the sticker, he says it refers to his dog, Vongole, and the people don't question him further, especially when Kristoph is driving with Vongole in his car to take her to the vet or for any other reason.
Phoenix on his end, finds it incredibly hilarious when Kristoph justifies the sticker's presence when he knows they both know it refers to Kristoph.
