So i was experimenting with psyche locks in objection.lol and...

[@Zelsix]

Alright so after a long time of being too lazy to respond i will actually tell people how to get the psyche locks now. You can't get those anymore. It used to be a custom character (Not made by me btw) that you needed to pair with the desired character, but the thing is that the sprites for the character were hosted on discord, and apparently because of an update i don't remember being announced, the sprites were nuked because they get auto-deleted after some time or something (not entirely sure what's up myself quite honestly) Since the character of the psyche locks wasn't made by me and neither were the sprites, there is literally nothing i can do about that. Sorry.

Edgeworth had like 15 backup Psyche Locks and that single line broke them all. What a sacred use of the Magatama

[@woogieboogi]

“i’m gay” such a powerful line

[@thedontpanic]

I like to see it as Edgeworth attempting to use more mental gymnastics to try and stump Phoenix, but literally everything he comes up with in his head is defeated by "I'm gay" and so the locks just break as soon as he realizes it.

[@KalavinkaK]

@@thedontpanic Even better if you see it as Edgeworth literally speed reasoning himself out of most of his own objections before they even come out of his mouth. The man thinks fast and lots of intelligent people are known to realise their own flawed arguments mid-debate before the opponent gets the chance to point them out.

[@kkTeaz]

@@KalavinkaK you see, I only process the flaws after I've already said the entire thing, so the best thing I can do is use my talent of making bs up and start thinking if ways to refute their argument against my obvious flaw.
