Okay, we've talked about your swag.

What about your character? Is there anything they collect? Are they the kind of person who would get fandom swag? What would they be into?

Yamato canonically collects vintage jazz records, being more than a little bit of a jazz nerd. He is probably the exact kind of person who only plays them once and then puts them back in their case, never to be listened to again, so that they can stay preserved. But that's kind of the only fandom swag he indulges in -- he doesn't seem to really watch movies or television, or play video games, so he's not in a whole lot of fandoms.

But he would buy fandom swag for Koushiro and Takeru, both of whom seem to be big Harry Potter fans (Koushiro even has a Ravenclaw student cosplay outfit) and who are probably into a bevy of other geeky things. When their birthdays or Christmas hit, Yamato probably dips into some very intense research on what their current fandom obsessions are and then picks up some swag that he thinks they'll like.

Jessica would so grab all the Captain Marvel swag. Hats, hoodies, keychains, all of it. I'm sure she has other hero's swag also, especially Wolverine's unlicensed boxers. I don't see her buying her own swag though.

She's also currently a horror nerd, so I can see her grabbing all the toys and whatever she can get her hands on. I know canon panels don't show much to support either headcanons, but that's my gal.

I do have a dream of her getting to the galaxy far, far away some time to end up on some adventure solely for her to get her mitts on a decommissioned or stripped down Clone Tropper helmet so she can give it to Carol and giggle manically inside that Carol won't know that it actually comes from the reality and isn't a prop from their realities movies.

Emcee doesn't really collect anything now, but he used to cut pictures of his favorite movie stars out of magazines and tape them to his walls and vanity mirror. He is an absolute fan of Marlene Dietrich. He has still has some photos of her that he brought from his old flat in Berlin, but he hasn't had the heart to hang them up yet. Wherever he puts them will be his home.

Cassidy collects umbrellas, hats, and other people's clothing. He needs the umbrellas and hats to protect him from the sun. And he doesn't have an actual set wardrobe, he just wears whatever is lying around. He likes geeky things like Lord of the Rings and Star Wars (anything pre-2016 is fair game), but since he moves from place to place a lot, he's not the type to collect and keep anything specific, unless maybe it was given to him as a gift. Like later in the show he kept an Archie comic book that one of the angels gave him (dawww).

Phoenix would probably buy Steel Samurai merch on occasion, solely as gifts for Maya and Edgeworth.

I can see Urania collecting space mobiles, or astronomical devices from over the centuries.

COLLECTING AND PRESERVING THINGS IS HIGHLY IMMORAL

BREAK THINGS BE FREE

Yrael agrees.
