Summary
It’s only three days until Apollo’s first case ever, and he’s not sure if he’s ready to actually defend someone in court. Fortunately, his mentor Kristoph Gavin has a useful training exercise for maintaining one’s composure in a stressful setting. Unfortunately, Apollo might be ready for his court date, but he isn’t ready for Kristoph’s training.
Wren's tags: ace attorney, misc fandom, dubcon, Apollo Justice, kristoph gavin, manipulation, writing.
Wren's warnings: Highly dubious consent due to manipulation and power imbalance.
Archivist's warnings: Apollo doesn't consent, therefore noncon.

When I Win the World Ends by Bavitz

Summary
Once a year, the world's best trainers compete for the title of World Champion. Toril, the favorite, has dedicated her life to battling. Aracely, the underdog, has not. In fact, she barely knows the rules. She didn't even build her own team. She's a mockery of the sacred bond between trainers and Pokémon, one Toril swears to eliminate.
But Aracely makes plays that shouldn't be possible. She reads opponents as though reading their minds, predicts exactly what they'll do. And now, she's made another prediction, one far more unsettling: "When I win, the world ends."

Bookmarker's Notes
masterpiece! every single moment spent reading this was so much fun. so many exhilarating battles with such careful attention to detail about how competitive pokemon 6v6 singles is played. lots and lots of references to canon as well as smogon-type stuff, some overt, some subtle, the latter kind made me feel the type of joy i imagine a rodent does when it tears apart a cardboard tube and finds sweet potato inside every time. toril's final, mystery pokemon was my very favourite twist, executed with aplomb as was everything else about this work, and made me very happy :-)...
there's no other game like competitive pokemon. i feel that many resent its extreme amount of luck-based elements, seeing them as obstacles barricading the way toward a game where the more skilled player walks away with the win every time, but even though it's kind of ass as a competitive game i wouldn't want to live in the world where hydro pump never misses and shadow ball never drops spdef. well, maybe i could bear to live in the one where scald doesn't proc its 30% burn. hahaha. i haven't played or kept up with this scene in a long time now, but this fic made me remember what i loved so much about it
this story's words sing and sing and sing. please give them a listen. where will you be when the world ends?

“Federal court?” Phoenix said, blankly, for the third time, and this time, Edgeworth, sounding distinctly less sympathetic, said, “Surely you’ve heard of it.”

Summary
Gohan says, “I want one month.”
They both stop. As one, they turn pale blue eyes down to where he stands in the wreckage they have made.
They’ll never agree to one month. It’s too high. Seventeen is going to take the offer back and they can all pretend this never came up.
But it would be one month to train Trunks in safety. One month for Bulma to do her work without the threat of death from above.
They’ll never, ever agree.
Seventeen comes up with new games to ease his boredom. Gohan tries to give Trunks, and the world, more time.

Bookmarker's Notes
fantastic fic that captures the uniquely very grim tone (amongst dragon ball media) of The History of Trunks OVA/future trunks' timeline in general and expands on it with heavy themes of struggle for autonomy against the expectations of you that your predecessors have set, intentionally or otherwise. the experience of reading this feels much like observing the behaviour of three starving rats trapped in a small enclosed area with only each other for company. 17 is highly entertaining both to watch and just to think about, and despite his actions it's easy to feel bad for him too. terrible situation for everybody. please give this a read

my very favourite logh fic. the characterisation is impeccable. in particular i like the way that reinhardt's flirting game is so bad because he'd known his only boyfriend since they were both like 8 so this is actually still new for him. if logh allowed its characters to have the gay sex we all know they're having, this is exactly precisely how i imagine reinyang would go

Summary
"And then there's a customized copy of PONY PALS, a gift to you on your 14th birthday from the slippery Mr. Strider. Each page contains lovingly hand-written commentary on the deeds of this intrepid young horse. Later, about halfway through the book, rather than see the gag through to the bitter end, Strider began pasting over entire pages of original text with his own completely rewritten version of the story, while keeping all the chapter titles. His revision is a tough, emotionally draining read. But it's cathartic, in all the worst ways possible.
He tends to get carried away with his projects."Note: this work is an altered book, and it plays on the physical relationship between the original pages and the edited text. As such, it's presented as a series of images. Reading the images is the only way to get the full experience, but I'm aware that some people can't/don't want to read it that way. So if that's the case, you can skip to chapter 13, which is a text-only version of the story, including rough descriptions of the most important illustrations.

Summary
A crown is a heavy burden to bear for Lyon and Ephraim both. When Ephraim shows up with a plan to escape it, Lyon can't help but go along. But mercenary life is not what either of them expected, and the reasons they've left are not as simple as they'd like. Pre-game alternate continuity. Rated for violence, alcohol, borderline adult content.
