Announced today, this game is a prequel to the Ace Attorney series taking place during Japan's Meiji period (aka the turn of the 20th century, about 100 years before the Ace Attorney series). The game stars Phoenix Wright's ancestor, Ryuunosuke. Shu Takumi is heading up the game's development, and it's said to "completely shake up the series."

Here's the teaser trailer!

*Note: The title shown in the thread title is actually what a localized title miiight look like; the game's translated Japanese title is "Great Turnabout Trial: The Adventure of Naruhodou Ryuunosuke".

If you don't already know what it is, Destati is the music that plays during the Dive to the Heart—yes, with the Ominous Italian Chanting. However, if you've played any Kingdom Hearts game, you've heard the theme reused in other pieces and places. What song from the series is your favorite that has a variation of Destati in it?

Mine would have to be Dismiss, from Birth by Sleep. The song plays during Aqua's battle with Terra-Xehanort in Radiant Garden. It turns Destati into a tense, urgent battle theme with serious gravity, also adding a touch of melancholy with snippets from Terra's leitmotif to remind you of the tragedy of the situation. Powerful stuff there.

In fall 2013, Grammarly organized a mass collaborative project to write a 50,000+ word novel for National Novel Writing Month. Over 300 writers from 27 countries contributed a total of 130,927 unedited words to the project, which is now available for purchase as a ~316-page e-book on Amazon! (All proceeds go to the Make-A-Wish foundation.)

The Lonely Wish-Giver tells the story of a woman named Audra who is a wish-giver; her entire life is spent waiting at a fountain, quietly granting people's wishes. Tired and unhappy with this life, she embarks on a journey with an unlikely companion named Otis to learn more about wish-givers and about herself.

...Can you tell yet that I was one of the 300+ authors who helped write it? If you give it a read, I can point you to what I wrote...~ :>

ARE WE SERIOUSLY DOING THIS AGAIN

View attachment 38112

oh arceus i feel like an adult saying i'm going to work how do i turn this sensation off

I was taking a bunch of trash out to the dumpster outside—one of those big dumpsters where it has a little slidey door on the side because it's super tall—and I opened up the door andNUOHMYARCEUS THERE'S A RACCOON IN THERE IT'S GONNA JUMP AT ME AND EAT MY FACE OFF

...After a few minutes of sliding boxes into the dumpster through the tiniest crack possible and recovering from the initial shock, I realized it was little wonder that the raccoon was hiding in there, given that we literally overnight went from balmy and wonderful 60-70 degree days to FREAKING SNOWING AGAIN.

I hope the little guy makes it okay.

With the latest Nintendo Direct showcasing the new Smash Bros. and some good Mega Man lovin' in there, lots of people have taken to saying things along the lines of "Nintendo showed in one Direct that they care more about Mega Man than Capcom does." What do you guys think about how Mega Man's been treated lately? And it occurred to me just today, given the comments about which companies care however much about him, what would people think if Nintendo somehow wound up buying the Mega Man franchise from Capcom?

I have to finish writing a 2-3 page personal essay about an experience where I learned some sort of truth or something. I don't want to.

i'M CACKLING YOU STAFF ARE THE BEST HLEP

Someone wrote a villain song for Hans!

Spoiler

...Sorry about that. I had to.

But actually, I'm nearly finished writing a dark reprise of Love Is An Open Door for Hans. I'll likely record myself singing it and upload it to Soundcloud (and my music thread, which is linked in my sig; you should go look at it and leave some constructive criticism or just feed my ego) when it's finished. :3

(Posting this early because I don't know if I'll be able to get on an hour from now. Tune in to the KHV Radio at 1:30 PM EST!)

I have two episodes left to watch in the first season. Halp. o__o

I don't want it to end. ;__;

...Incidentally, Billy Zane is guest starring. If he doesn't say anything about DARKNESS, I might cry more.

...Blame Amaury for bringing this fad back. >_>

I know Season 3 in 2012 ended poorly, with the contestants not posting enough (myself included), but it seems like the RP section has been blossoming lately, so participation might be up more this time around. Could Season 4 potentially be a thing?

Tagging @Lana Del Jayn since she's been the one in charge of RP Idol in the past.

Staff applications are closed. Interviews are going to be happening.

Brace yourselves.

We all know that @NubCat is basically the Tenth Doctor, I'm the Eleventh, and @Ienzo is the Twelfth...so who are our other ten regenerations on here? o.o

I started typing this up as a response to PaW's "Happiness" thread in the Spam Zone, but I decided that the Spam Zone was probably not the best place to post this, and I didn't want to hijack his thread either. So here I am.

*warning: actual serious unhappy tale (pun only mostly unintentional) ahead*

I am a Mormon. I also happen to like men. These things, they do not click so well.

I've talked about it in a couple of closed/secret Facebook groups with other Mormons. Unfortunately, the groups have mostly provided responses on pretty opposite ends: "Don't forget that the prophets have told us that homosexuality is wrong, and that that will never change. If you want to be happy, you need to have faith that everything will work out in the end and not act on your feelings." "Nobody can tell you what to do; you are what you are; you don't have to change for anyone. You can't completely be yourself within the church as it is, so if you want to be happy, you need to leave it or else find a way to be able to still live the basic beliefs while letting yourself get with other guys." Unfortunately, these points were not always made in the most polite or understanding ways. (One girl messaged me asking me to further explain my beliefs and hopes, then proceeded to thoroughly insult and mock me, and has made it a point to be rude on any other post we're on at the same time. But then again, she's rude to everyone on the group who isn't a feminazi.)

The two ideas contradict each other. They can't both make me happy. If I want to be happy, according to them, I have to choose one or the other. And both those options hurt. I've been a member of the LDS church my whole life, and I love my religion, yet staying would require me to ignore or change my sexuality, or to stay celibate. Part of me wants to be able to have a significant connection with another man, yet to do so would be to forsake everything I've known and learned.

Basically I'm sick of being told that I have to mutilate some part of myself to be happy, and that doing so on one side or the other are my only choices for happiness. One of my friends posted a quote on Facebook a while back that's given me some perspective/idea: "I had to walk away and give up something I loved for something I loved even more." Unquestionably I love my religion more than looking at guys in various stages of undress, but I can't just remove the part of me that yearns for a significant male other as if it's a tumor or growth of some kind. I want to be able to stay with my religion, but I have so much trouble being able to reconcile these two parts of me.

...You don't have to comment on this or PM me or anything. In fact, I'd almost rather you didn't. But I just needed to get this off my chest. A lot. And the closed/secret Facebook groups just aren't safe spaces for all this.

I need to write a persuasive essay and I decided I don't like the subject I already chose (especially because I didn't know enough about it when I SUBMITTED AN OUTLINE ALREADY). Someone give me a topic, I'm begging you. ;__;
