Want to do a bunch of highly whumpy, late 80s- early 90s culture nostalgia driven Marvel fanfic shorts. Primarily X-Men, Spider-Man, Captain America. I was like ‘i should do a whump oc setting based in the late 80s/early 90s’ but[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Actually we *should* write something exploring Phoenix Wright being plural. “Feenie, Nick, and Mr. Wright, Attorneys at Law” would make a great title for a fic.

“Phoenix. I didn’t expect you to be back so soon.” Kristoph was smiling, and Phoenix felt a knot in his stomach. He didn’t like how much Kristoph could smile, even in prison. Of course, he probably felt like he had[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
