What do you think?
Hello umi-teardrop,
I always think that the family trees people make to connect DGS with modern AA is interesting. I had a ton of fun creating my own family tree years ago, and I'm glad you had fun creating yours too.

Can ghosts of dead characters interact with the living characters? 👻
Hello!
I think that ghost characters can interact with the living characters. I cannot say that the stuff within those conversations will remain canon, if that makes sense? For example, if Klimt tells Barok some information he didn't know before, he probably wouldn't be able to recall it, but I think if they've talked before he would be able to remember it again.
Maybe he'd remember it like a dream, or something? It's tough, because this is technically happening through letters, but I would like to see some interactions like that happen. The one thing is, if someone sends an ask from a character but it feels too out of character, I may not answer it.
I hope that makes sense! Signed, Mod of the Baskervilles
not an ask but... Can I take your barber juror head canon name (Aiden Richmond) and run away with it? 👉👈 I am having so many silly hcs where he's Redacted's personal barber and one of the few friends they had before they went to jail 👀
Hello hello!
I see no reason why not! I'm very happy to share the Aiden Richmond name with whoever wants to use it. I would love to hear about your headcanons, and this silly situation with Redacted.

hi hello ⚙️ anon here! I sent the "Dr. Iris" ask and the one abouch Enoch Drebber's past - did not put my emoji on them because I Deadass Forgot.
I can prouldly say I have read the entirety of the Sherock Holmes canon and oooooh I like what this implied - our Enoch is the son of the Study in Scarlet victim? 10/10 move
P. S. I haven't read your fic yet but I'm looking forward to it!
Hello again! Nice to hear from you once more.
Yes, you got exactly what I was implying! The Enoch we know is Enoch Jr., son of the victim from Study in Scarlet. If you've read that story you might be able to imagine why he doesn't like his dad and might want to leave his family.
P.S. that's okay, I hope you enjoy it!

"I have made my own sacrifice because of my family trying to protect their blood in much the same way"
If I may ask you to elaborate on that headcanon?..
An excerpt from the diary of Enoch Drebber:
I find that my arm has started to give off a foul smell. It would appear that my injuries had not healed enough when I found my way onto this boat, and now infection has sunk in. I fear I may lose more than a few fingers this time, though had I waited another few days, I doubt I would have ever made it out of Utah again.
The only reason I made it out of there without my father was, I believe, was that wronged man, Jefferson. Had he not shown up in Cincinnati as he had, my father would have had me in chains. And then in a cart, and then in a ring, and stuck on a farm. I still can hardly believe I made it out of there with my life.
I am surrounded by animals and their dung, which is not the place to nurse a wound, but it was all I could afford. If someone happens to check down here, I would not be surprised if I am thrown seaward, doomed to freeze or drown. That is, if I can survive the loss of my hand, my eye, the lack of food or warm, and the horrific thoughts within my own head.
I have lost track of the days, I know not if I sleep through them, I hope only that I can find my way to London, and to school within it.
Fearfully, E
You have other work?!? grabby hands!
Indeed I do. I'd say my magnum opus would be this near 5,000 word epistolary I wrote about the Professor killings and such. It took me five months of research and writing and it was so fun and I am genuinely so proud of it. I have tons of other stuff on that account, but I love this story so much. I love epistolary and I'm fascinated by the stuff that happened before the plot of dgs.
Under the read more is a link and a description of the story and the work that went into it.

This story is an epistolary. If you don't know what that is, it's a story told entirely through documents. If you want an example of a really good one, the original version of Dracula by Bram Stoker is an epistolary.
I based the story off of a lot of things, but in particular, Dracula, various Sherlock Holmes stories (especially, of course, Hound of the Baskervilles), and original documents I found from the time period. I researched birth certificates, newspaper clippings, letters, journal entries, and even submissions to parliament. I talked to people who, like me, are really into the Victorian period. I asked my British friends for help on various aspects of life in England.
I realize it may not look like it, but a lot of fics take a lot of work. This one, I was writing before we knew that dgs would ever be localized. I had high doubts about it specifically because of the copyright surrounding Sherlock Holmes. I am so pleased that I made and released it when I did, as it came out a month before the localization. It's, in my opinion, a fascinating resource into what the story was like before the localization. I still haven't finished DGS 2 quite yet, so I have yet to see, for example, what Klimt's will ended up looking like. I based it half off of some random clipping I found on the wiki that I have no idea of the source for, and also a fanslation (not the dubbed one by I believe TaisaTheGamer or something along those lines, but a subbed one by a channel that's like Dai Gyakuten Saiban 2 or something).
So, basically, this is a lovely little melting pot of two or three translations, my own grammar edits, real historical documents, Arthur Conan Doyle, Bram Stoker, and some friends of mine. I am so proud of it.
I am a writer who used to do so much more frequently, but have been hit with a terrible writer's block for years. Doing these little asks has gotten that creativity flowing a bit more, and I was wondering: Would you as an audience be interested in seeing what other kind of work I do, or helping me make decisions on said works without seeing them; or would you prefer that this blog be kept specifically to dgs 2 asks?

Hello to all the new people who've followed this blog!! I have run out of asks to answer but the ask box is always open, I'm looking for some new plots to start, and I just got a medication that makes my brain work so chances are I'll even answer those asks!
I really hope you like what you see.

Hello everyone!! Currently I'm in a bit of a weird place where I can very easily answer asks but for whatever reason physically cannot add gifs, and occasionally tags, to the posts. Sorry about that! Hopefully I can update the posts later. Thanks for your patience! Keep the asks coming in! <3
Signed, Mod of the Baskervilles
Hey guys! I'm back and hoping to keep posting some nice fun silly content for you guys. Currently I only have 1 post in the queue, so feel free to send in however many asks you want!
Thank you guys! - Mod of the Baskervilles
Unfortunately, I'm going to have to take a brief hiatus from answering questions. You're absolutely still free to send them in, in fact, I encourage that! But I probably won't get around to answering them for another week or so. Sorry for the trouble!
Signed, Mod of the Baskervilles
Thank everyone for all the asks they've sent in so far! I've gotten at least 6 asks tonight alone, and am working on posting answers for them. I'm having so much fun you would not believe working on this.
To the anon who sent the super long ask, I love it so much and I can't thank you enough for sending it. The answer will be out in a few days, as I have posts queued to be 3 a day for now so as to not run out of material. I may make it be more if I end up getting more asks.
Thank you all! I love you guys!

We are live and ready for any asks you have for any of the dgs characters after the events of both games.
Don't forget to check out the about and rules pages!!
