It's pronounced "ah-bow-day" ya jackwagon.
Okay, so, at one point Datass wanted me to put my song threads into one, and I think that I said I would but it was a blatant lie, I can't quite remember... As well as the song and poem, I've also had little sprite edits and such here and there, all pretty minor stuff for the most part, but I figured it was worth it to put it all together. So, let me see...
Spoiler : Mini-Sprites :
<- Made for Koopakirby's Turnabout Butler. Was surprised to find there were no Bellboy courtview sprites from the game, he was pretty much the only to testify and not get one...
<- Pretty much just made this to see if I could...
<- Seems I didn't make Grey's sprite all by itself, I can only find it here in this court overview I did for Gumpei's The Rowdy Turnabout. Of course, this may actually be convenient, as it also lets me show the sprite for Lumina that I did... which I'm really not happy with, but y'know...

Spoiler : Backgrounds :
<- Shots of the Upper Deck of the Court Gallery, made for Turnabout Bloodlines.
<- Little thing I did of the LA County Prison to use in Escape From The Turnabout's prologue, as well as in a flashback scene in Turnabout Bloodlines.
<- Made for EleventhSpade.
<- Made these for Ponyboy a loooong time ago... there was another, but it's... it's pretty terrible.
<- Made for Turnabout Mafia.

Spoiler : Sprites :
<- PALETTE SWAP MY GOD I'M CREATIVE
<-Away game~
<- Made for Bloodlines.
<- Did these as a little "experiment" in a preview trial, worked out pretty well...
<- Zoom-in sprite I did for Jacques. I actually did all of the frames for it, Dypo animated the still image, and was supposed to animate the talking one, but... um... he didn't... so... Wanted to put that in Part 3 of Bloodlines somewhere, but oh well...
<- Little thing I did of Maya, to make her hide behind Grossber- I mean Balsley, yes, Balsley, in The Most Important Trial Ever Held.
<- The in-action result of that, worked out pretty welll.
<- ...Probably shouldn't even count this, but y'know... this was for the transformation scene in TMITEH that I had so much fun with.
<- Also in that same scene. More on this below...

Spoiler : Other pics :
<- The courtroom slowly changes as the channeling continues...
<- The end result of the courtroom's transformation, which also shows the extra stands and benches, as well as that Trucy mini-sprite that I don't particularly want to show off...
<- Un-transformed version that was never actually used.
^The rest of the various things I made for TMITEH.^
<- Little thing I did for a scene in Part 2 of Turnabout Bloodlines.
<- Article I did for Bloodlines. I won't post the newer one here, as I didn't make it.
<- Smaller versions of the two articles.
<- Seating Chart I did for Bloodlines.
<- The bottom part of White's torso, put onto the defendant lobby background, for that one scene in Turnabout Bloodlines where White is there, for when he uses his witness stand-only sprites, so as to not be using cut-off sprites. The front-facing one was actually made from scratch... thank God for the overly-simple sprites of AA1~!
<- Close-up images I did, for dramatic effect in Part 3 of Turnabout Bloodlines.

Spoiler : Comfort (song) :
I trip you, and watch you fall,
Just so I can help you up and dust you off.
I poison you, and get you sick,
Just so I can help cure your cough.
I grab you and shove you against the wall,
So that I can break your fall.
I need to hold you when you're blue,
and that's why I must hurt you.
I'll break your heart,
just to mend it again.
Helping those that are hurting,
is my only sin.
I know that it seems wrong,
using you to feel strong.
But the only thing that I demand,
is that you try to understand...
That I need you to need me,
as something to lean on.
I need you to need me,
when you've been trounced upon.
I need you to need me,
every night and every day.
I need you to need me,
if you want this to work, it's the only way.
Truly, I am sorry,
that you must be hurt.
But don't worry my love,
because in me - and only me - will you find comfort.
I know that I've tortured you,
but I've also soothed you, atleast.
I may have caged you,
but only so that you could be released.
It's true that I've screwed with your mind,
it's true that your arms, I often bind.
But I only do this because you are mine,
and so that I can help you... in due time.
Hop in my love, we're going for a ride.
100 miles per hour, just me and my bride.
What's wrong, my dear? You seem so despaired.
Feel free to cuddle up to me, if you get scared.
You know that it's only fair,
you know that I really care.
This is just how I show my love,
isn't that right, my little wounded dove...?
Please, try and forget,
just how awful it was.
You know I only did it,
because...
I need you to need me,
as someone to lean on.
I need you to need me,
when you've been trounced upon.
I need you to need me,
every night and every day.
I need you to need me,
if you want this to work, it's the only way.
Truly, I am sorry,
that you must be hurt.
But don't worry my love,
because in me - and only me - will you find comfort.
You once asked me where I got this obsession from.
And I had to admit, even I didn't know.
But now I remember what happened,
one day, ages ago.
You came running up to my useless self,
with tears rolling down your pretty face.
You cried as though you had been through Hell.
And all I could give you was my embrace.
Now I am not a monster.
In fact, I'd say I'm an angel in disguise.
But I must say, you looked really cute,
with those little tears in your eyes.
And suddenly, I felt it,
a feeling I'd never known.
Someone had found a use in me,
I had a purpose of my very own!
If I could cheer you up,
then that'd be enough to sustain.
But the only problem was,
I needed to do this again.
Now I've gone far too far,
there's nothing else that I can do.
The more that you cry,
the more that I'm drawn to you.
And I know it seems so depraved,
hurting you to get what I've craved.
I hate that you're all but enslaved,
but I'm sorry - I can no longer be saved.
Because I need you to need me,
as a shoulder to cry upon.
I need you to need me,
when your world has piled it on.
I need you to need me,
in the worst possible way.
I need you to need me,
just to get myself through the day.
Truly, I am sorry,
that you must be hurt.
But don't worry my love,
because in me - and only me...
In me, and only me... will you find...
... Comfort.

Spoiler : Sleeping Beauty (poem) :
Morality or carnality
Such a natural confliction
They're the ones taking the pills
But I'm the one with the addiction
I pull up the covers and what should I see
But my very own Sleeping Beauty
That's what you are, it's true
Though it may not be a kiss that wakes you
Don't worry man, it's cool
She'll never know
It's much better then the alternative
And you know this is so
Don't you judge me
As someone to abhor
'Cause life's just a game
And everyone just wants to score
All of the pleasure
And none of the drama
It's just as evil
But there isn't any trauma
When she awakens, she'll know nothing
To me, it just makes sense
The only thing putting up a fight
Is my own conscience
Such a natural confliction
They're the ones taking the pills
But I'm the one with the addiction
I pull up the covers and what should I see
But my very own Sleeping Beauty
That's what you are, it's true
Though it may not be a kiss that wakes you
Don't worry man, it's cool
She'll never know
It's much better then the alternative
And you know this is so
Don't you judge me
As someone to abhor
'Cause life's just a game
And everyone just wants to score
All of the pleasure
And none of the drama
It's just as evil
But there isn't any trauma
When she awakens, she'll know nothing
To me, it just makes sense
The only thing putting up a fight
Is my own conscience
