DOVA-P-I LORE POST
It's 2 am and I've just thought of all this and so I'm writing it down and I'll clean it up later.
So in my head, the world outside of Wizard Island Island is still very trope-y, and so of course, there are "world famous detectives". Before joining the island, Dova was like... No.6? ish? They were at that point where, if a case was big enough that you needed to call in a WFD, and Dova showed up, someone would say "Her? Like, don't get me wrong, he's obviously proved himself, but like... Was [no.3] busy? I haven't heard of any big cases from [no.5] lately, were they not available?" Basically, she was the WFD equivalent of "is pepsi ok?"
But Dova was happy enough with their place, and their ability, even if it had never appeared on the official "top 5 detectives" international list. But, Dova's kind of getting on; they're in faes early 70s, and she's slowing down. If she's found his suspect, they can't chase them down like ze used to.
And honestly? Maybe Dova's a little afraid. Afraid of running into someone with a gun, or a knife, and not being able to stop them before it's too late. When he was younger? stronger? She remembers being less afraid, back then.
So she came to Wizard Island Island. If anyone asked cloud, he'd say that he came because the cases in the regular world were getting boring, and wanted to change it up a bit. But he came to Wizard Island Island, go figure, for the wizards. She wanted to learn magic, to try and... Get that edge back, that's been blunted over the years.
