Hello, may I request Barok with s/o after he's had them kidnapped?

You didn’t specify a scenario or headcanons so I’m just going to go with headcanons!

I’m answering these out of order but I just wanna dip my toes in the water first but I’ll try and get back into chronological order based on when the request was made ASAP.

Spoilers: Dai Gyakuten Saiban (The Great Ace Attorney)

TW: Kidnapping, Obsession, Possessive Behaviours, Outdated Attitudes

🍷Kidnapping Headcanons: Barok van Zieks🍷

🍷I’ve mentioned this in my original yandere headcanons, but Barok wouldn’t kidnap S/O himself. He would use some shadier contacts and hire two thugs to break into their home and kidnap them.

🍷He would emphasise that no harm was to come to S/O, in fact he would far prefer for S/O to be taken without a fight. He places a lot of trust in the people he hires to do this job, but if S/O was delivered to him with a single hair out of place then he would make sure that they didn’t escape without consequence.

🍷Barok would stay in the room that he places S/O into until they wake up. He’d keep a solemn watch over them while they slept, he would have already ordered his staff to keep away from the room.

🍷Only he gets to indulge in this moment, after all.

🍷When S/O wakes up, he takes a patient and logical approach to his explanation for the circumstances that they are in. It would be more than obvious to S/O that Barok had been behind the countless letters that they had been receiving.

🍷Naturally, S/O would find themselves in a blind panic, especially once they realise that they have been tied to the bed they’re in with some rather sturdy leather belts. While Barok promised that they would be free to roam around the room once they calmed down, it would not ease S/O’s furious response to his actions.

🍷While he would most certainly be frustrated by S/O’s initial panic once they realised that they weren’t able to leave, he wouldn’t be surprised. As much as he despises the fact that S/O isn’t grateful for the fact that he saved them from the immorality and cruelty of society, he knows that they must be in shock from it all.

🍷Obviously, this all depends on how you imagine S/O, but there would definitely be a big communication issue right from the start. S/O wouldn’t want anything to do with Barok, while Barok would want to spend all the free time he has away from his work with S/O.

🍷Barok wouldn’t really try to fully understand or empathise with S/O’s feelings, he sees them as immature and hysterical. Instead, he would stick his heels in and persist with his own fantasy as S/O’s provider.

🍷It would take a long time of persistent pushing on S/O’s part for Barok to externalise his frustrations, as a member of the nobility he knows how to save face and keep his true feelings pushed deep down, but if S/O struck him where it hurts then he would really lose his temper and S/O could expect to find themself having to dodge a bottle of wine that he’d throw towards the wall behind them.

ℍ𝕖𝕣𝕝𝕠𝕔𝕜 𝕊𝕙𝕠𝕝𝕞𝕖𝕤

-Herlock tends to boast a lot about his oh so great adventures, especially his book

- You had to admit those stories did leave you in awe of the detectives bravery and recklessness but some stories did leave you giggling much to his embarrassment

-It's been years since he first told you about his first ever case a detective with his partner

-You figured that today is a day to celebrate a little anniversary if you will, the good the detective had to be rewarded for all his years of solving crime right?

-If Iris' help you 2 planned a perfect little party for 3 of you since Ryuunosuke and Susato left for Japan

-While Herlock was busy doing who knows what you were off to a store with Iris to guy ingredients

-Ingredient for what exactly? For a cake of course!

-Iris was a good helper and at keeping secrets from our dear Hurley

-As soon as you 2 got home you started preparing the delicious goods

-By the time Herlock got back everything was already set and ready, with you and Iris already seated on the couch

-" Welcome home dear" you greeted him getting up from your seat " What's the occasion? I'd hardly doubt you'd mistake my or Iris' birthdays" The boy asks, drooling at the sight of the food " We've prepared a little party for our great detective silly!" Iris chimed in " I figured since it's been over a decade since you became detective we'd celebrate your hard work, I remember you told me way back when that this day was the day you became a detective all those years ago" you explained while putting his coat away on the coat hanger next to the door

-You actually remembered something as small as that!? Looks like you've got a detective's memory just like him

-He's so moved " Oh dear you shouldn't have , come here , you too Iris" he said before engulfing you both into a tight hug,in which you both reciprocate the gesture " Oh what would I do without you two!" He cried out hugging you tighter before letting go and wiping his yes

-" Come now this deliciousness isn't going to eat by itself " he said while dragging you both to the table in the living room

𝕂𝕒𝕫𝕦𝕞𝕒 𝔸𝕤𝕠𝕦𝕘𝕚

-He's not one to talk much, often busy or just preferring to sit with you in silence

-However he does enjoy talking about his life when he lived in Japan and honestly he's a great storyteller, only when he doesn't use complex words you don't understand

-One thing that interested you was his sword he always carries

-You walked to your usual spot where to often talked about whatever was on your mind and you remembered about the sword

-" Hey Kazuma I remember you telling me about how your sword is sort of like a symbol of the Asougi family right? Mind telling me how it became that in the first place?" You asked looking at your boyfriend " Oh you want to hear about the history of Karuma?" He asked , masking his surprise " Yeah I mean it seems something important to you right? Especially since you have it with you anywhere you go" you replied to his question with a smile while pointing at the sword on his waist

-He started telling you the first ever mention of Karuma and how it was kept for generations leading up to the present and how many people in the Asougi family changed their name to Karuma in honor of the sword

-You sat and listened as he kept telling you more thing with a smile on his face

-Despite his calm exterior Kazuma was still surprised you actually remembered stuff he tells you about his family and generally anything he tells you which he very much appreciates

𝔹𝕒𝕣𝕠𝕜 𝕧𝕒𝕟 𝕫𝕚𝕖𝕜𝕤

-Whenever Barok feels like it he likes to reminisce old stories about him and his brother as you sit next to him and listen

-It's nice honestly to remember these nice moments,it was bittersweet nostalgia for the prosecutor

-One thing you recalled was him and Klint playing chess together, Klint being the older one, often had to teach little Barok the ins and outs of chess but he got the hang of it quickly

-You decided maybe it would be nice to play a round or two of chess with him,since he spoke fondly of those memories

-You already knew he had a chess board somewhere all you needed was a good moment to ask him

-You yourself weren't too skillful at chess but maybe you can improve on those skills with Barok's help

-One day you managed to catch him reading a book on a sofa, legs crossed, completely focused, he seemed to have finished work for the day

- " Oh hey Barok!" You call out ,a bit too excited for your liking as you enter his office " Why hello dear, you seem awfully cheerful, might you enlighten me on what brought this excitement?" He asked closing the book after leaving a mark of where he left off " Well I've been thinking, I remember you mentioned on how you and Klint often played chess and I was wondering if maybe you can you know… teach me a couple of tricks" you asked looking at him

-He was surprised you remembered something from his ramblings but he quickly recovered from his initial shock, a rare smile showing on his face " Why I'd be delighted , Wait here I'll bring the board and we'll begin our little battle of wits if you will" he said before getting up and grabbed the chess board that was sitting on a stool next to his desk

-He first explained the basics, like what piece goes where and how it moves on the board

-The first couple of rounds he obviously beat you but he had to admit he was having fun

-If you eventually won against him he'd praise you while you cheer in glee

ℝ𝕪𝕦𝕦𝕟𝕠𝕤𝕦𝕜𝕖 ℕ𝕒𝕣𝕦𝕙𝕠𝕕𝕠

-Despite his more shy nature he loves to talk to you about all sorts of things, he could tell you like 10 things per hour if he really wanted to

-One thing that stook out to you was his hobby of talking fast and learning tongue twisters, you haven't heard anyway that does that in their spare time especially as a hobby

-You were curious about his abilities but usually found both of yourselves busy and it eventually sort of slipped out of your mind till one day

-So on that day you came up to him and asked if about his little hobby

-'' So mind telling me more about the whole talking fast and learing tongue twisters hobby of yours? I remember you said that once but I sorta forgot to ask about it till now hehe.." you awkward Laughed as Ryburgh looks at you with shock

-You actually wanted to learn more!? Well he's pumped

-" Well there are many I managed to learn back in Japan. Do you want to hear some?" He asked giddy like a little kid who just got candy

-He also told you about the story of the speech competition and how Kazuma practically humiliated himself by not being able to say " men and women of all ages" which made you laugh at the thought of the stoic and serious student messing up so bad

-Ryuu probably has a book with tongue twisters on him so he'd probably drag you to his room and you 2 start your little tongue twister club

-The first couple of times you messed up pretty badly which caused both of you to laugh at your bumbling mess

-After thousands of reading different tongue twisters you were getting the hang of it and actually had even more fun

-Ryuunosuke usually found himself silently smiling as your eyes light up when you finally managed to say a particular tongue twister without messing up

Dear TDW,

Chief Mod Edgeworth: Yes, it was getting out of hand and he was going too far with breaking the rules and all. Still trying to slither through. At least Dawsongfg tried to get better with their letters.

Mod Gregson: As someone who likes every ask to have a "point" or a good joke, the Hotti letters also just have no material to work with? So it's no skin off my back.

Mod Zieks: Yeah, even as someone who overdoes a joke all the time, it was dragged out way beyond the 'still funny but stale' point.

Dear Rogertheegg,

Chief Mod Edgeworth:

Hard to say, because the thing about the Investigation games is that they're entirely focused on investigations, not trials. There'd be no point if it was called Miles Edgeworth Investigations with trials taking center stage like in the Ace Attorney games. I say that kind of hypothetical game of Miles Edgeworth having his own trials as a prosecutor should be treated as separate games from the investigation ones.

Co-Mod: Most of the characters I create are based on already existing characters in some way (not the least of which are Ace Attorney characters), so I'd probably create someone who looks and acts like Calisto Yew -- smug, apathetic, and calm until things stop going her way. Her "Objection!" would likely sound like Calisto's, too -- quiet, but firm. (Sorry I can't offer anything more creative than that.)

Mod Zieks: I really like this prompt! My general idea for a 'villain defense attorney' would be a high-charging-rates style business man, (Red White style.) Victoria Scarletti. Defense Attorney. To give a description of how I believe her character would be written:

Background: Victoria Scarletti's journey to becoming a renowned defense attorney was far from easy. Born into poverty, she experienced homelessness and struggled to make ends meet from a young age. Determined to escape the cycle of poverty, Victoria dedicated herself to her studies, excelling academically despite facing numerous obstacles along the way. Her drive and determination eventually earned her a scholarship to Ivy Law School, where she graduated at the top of her class.

Personality: Victoria's difficult past has left its mark on her, instilling in her a deep-seated desire for financial security and stability. She is fiercely ambitious and will stop at nothing to achieve her goals, even if it means resorting to unscrupulous methods. Despite her charming exterior, Victoria harbors a sense of resentment towards those who have never known hardship, driving her to crave wealth and success above all else.

Appearance: Despite her humble beginnings, Victoria presents herself with an air of sophistication and elegance. She dresses impeccably in designer suits and accessories, using her appearance to project an image of wealth and success to the world. I could definitely see her with long, dirty blonde or ruby red hair, well kept into a bun, with a silver spoon in place of the classic chopstick look (referring to the 'silver spoon' of wealth, of course.) Oh, and bright red stilettos. She is a tall girl in high heels.

Modus Operandi: Victoria's troubled past has made her relentless in her pursuit of wealth and power. She has no qualms about using her legal expertise to manipulate the justice system to her advantage, often representing wealthy clients who can afford her high fees. Victoria is not above bending the rules or exploiting loopholes to secure a favorable outcome for her clients, regardless of the moral implications.

Motivation: Victoria's tumultuous upbringing has fueled her desire for financial security and success. She sees the legal profession as a means to achieve the wealth and status she craves, and she is willing to do whatever it takes to climb the ranks and establish herself as a prominent figure in the legal world. Her troubled past serves as a constant reminder of where she came from, driving her to never settle for anything less than the best.

Dear Anonymous,

Chief Mod Edgeworth: The Signal Samurai wasn't in the game and no the anime is NOT canon. In fact, I hate the anime. It keeps changing things from the game that are pointless and adding things that ruin certain aspects of the game such as Edgeworth admitting that his death note was him metaphorically saying he was dead, Edgeworth being adopted by Manfred von Douchebag and Celeste Inpax being Adrian's sister.

Edgeworth claiming his note was not a suicide note defeats the purpose of the second game and character growth. Sure, he may've not given us an explanation for the note, but that's because the game knew when to allow the game to tell the story. Edgeworth being adopted was also stupid, since again the game allowed us to come to our own conclusions about his relationship with Manfred von Karma. Not to mention it defeats the purpose of Franziska von Karma being the heir to the von Karma's. Sure, she sees Edgeworth as her brother, but it's common in Japan to call someone your brother even if you're not their brother by relation, adoption or the like.

Celeste Inpax being the sister of Adrian defeats the point of their relationship and how it connects to the overall arching plot. Their relationship represents Edgeworth's relationship with his mentor Manfred von Karma and what led him to write a suicide note. Making them sisters defeats the point of Edgeworth's relationship with his mentor, what led him to write that note, makes us question if the note was legit and feels more like a comparison to Franziska, which makes no sense being that she was supposed to be a reflection of Phoenix Wright and the troubles he's going through.

The only good things I've heard about the anime were mostly the stand-alone episodes that weren't connected to the game, which makes me wonder why it couldn't have just be it's own Defense Attorney show like The Extraordinary Attorney Woo. The anime is a shell of the original game and feels like a cash grab at worst. My suggestion is to watch the live action Ace Attorney movie. It's more faithful to the games, doesn't make pointless changes and the changes it does make are because of the low budget.

Mod Zieks: It's good for what it is. Hot take, it's not as good as the games, sure, but it's a well-done voiceover that illustrates the basic plot points, while providing us a more fleshed-out version of the character's backgrounds. Also, it gave us perfect smear frames. Like this one from the Will Powers case of Miles throwing the spear, edited to look like he's being held up like a cat. (Apologies if the edit is bad, I did it myself.)

Dear Youryingyangjesse,

Chief Mod Edgeworth: Erm... I'm assuming you're sending this to a character with a mouse? Unless you give us a name, it's going to be sent directly to the mods. Otherwise, the only character I can think of with a mouse is a character that has a mouse as an avatar, not a pet.

Mod Zieks: (I do believe they are referring to this character: https://aceattorney.fandom.com/wiki/Vilen_Borshevik)

Chief Mod Edgeworth: OH! I forgot about him! I'll answer this after this is sent.

Dear Memiokoa,

Chief Mod Edgeworth: Where.

ACK!

Co-Mod: I still need to play that game sometime...

Mod Gregson: Let's just be glad there's no screenshot of Phoenix calling someone sus...

Mod Zieks: Yet. There is no Phionex Wright 'Sus' screenshot.

Yet.

Dear Anonymous,

Chief Mod Edgeworth:

Which letters are you talking about. I can't find any letters you're referring to.

Dear Anonymous,

Chief Mod Edgeworth: Believe me, I haven't answered any Hotti letters for months and thank GOD for that.

Dear Anonymous,

Chief Mod Edgeworth:

You mean was and I was possessed by my evil twin I had forgotten about from a decade ago. I don't know how to feel about that.

Dear Steadypapersharkprofessor,

Chief Mod Edgeworth: I'm assuming you mean "design"?

Artistically, in my opinion, Barok van Zieks has the best character design from the outfit, to his hair, eyes, body shape and facial expressions. The worst would be Phineas Filch, but that isn't saying much, considering all the characters introduced in Duel Destinies are all fugly. It took maybe a year for me to get used to Duel Destinies' Defense Phoenix Wright sprite. I can't be the only one getting uncanny valley feelings whenever I see Phoenix's sprite from Duel Destinies.

Co-Mod: I repeat myself, but...

Second place would go to Susato, whose simple yet ornate design matches her personality all too perfectly.

I honestly can't decide which hairstyle I like most. That one's a tie, I guess. (No pun intended.)

Mod Gregson: To stay away from the main characters, who I think all have excellent designs... I gotta go with the de Famme twins for my favorite. Both their designs tell you everything you need to know about their personalities, and being themed after two magical animals is extra great!

For the worst, uh. Sal Manella. No questions. Spark Brushel is up there too for me, but in kind of a funny way?

Mod Zieks: I really like Van Zieks. And Edgeworth. Their designs scream 'pretentious prick' in all the right way. I'd say the most recent Edgeworth design is my favorite variant. He's such a shit-eating bastard and I adore his design for it. He picked 'Victorian era vampire' as his vibe and WENT with it. Props to him.

(Also I have a massive bias towards vampires, being one myself, so, grain of salt.) Also, Sal Manelia is awful. I will not be taking questions at this time.

Dear Gumshoe "Letty" Fan,

Chief Mod Edgeworth: Let's see... Tucker Foley from Danny Phantom, Seto Kaiba from Yugioh and... yeah, that's about it. Any fictional crushes after that came into my adult years.

Mod Gregson: Jenny from My Life As A Teenage Robot sticks out to me right away! Other than that, uh... Naoto Shirogane from Persona 4 and Celestia Ludenberg from Danganronpa were big ones.

Mod Zieks: I'm not ashamed to admit that when I was 7, I saw my older cousin playing A.A. on their DS, and I crushed HARD on both Phionex and Miles.

Dear Miraz van Nohhr,

Chief Mod Edgeworth: If anyone wishes to apply as a mod and take it, they may. But, you can't decide if Modfred should be taken or not. Either you can apply and see if you qualify so you can take it yourself (when we have another Mod Audition) or you can sit there like a log singing Untitled.

Mod Gregson: I should've taken that title... eh. Gregson's cool anyway.

-The Mods
