Hey guys. I know it’s been a while, but stuff has been kinda all over the place lately. I don’t really have the drive to write for this blog currently anyways, let alone as much time as I used to have. Simply put, I’m putting this blog on a fairly permanent hiatus until otherwise stated.

That being said, I’m not deleting anything, so feel free to read the story up to where I left off if you want. Heck, send in an ask if you’re bored, maybe I’ll notice and feel like answering for the hell of it.

But other than that, I’m done here for now. Bye everyone.

*Meanwhile*

"Where in the name a' Arceus is e'?!" Nicholas Galea paces back and forth inside of a simple lab, while a lanky 15 year old holding a clipboard stands nearby looking uncomfortable. "Um, sir?" "Freakin' idiot, runnin' off like that, could be anywhere-" "Sir?" "I swear to Palkia I'm gonna kick 'is ass when I find 'im, even if it takes Dialga knows how long-" "Sir!" Nick head whips around to look at the teenager, having forgotten he was there. "Oh, what is it Victor?" "Well, um, I was thinking, why don't you go search for... who is it that's missing? You never really specified. You've just been kind of... ranting." "..." "Sir? Are you okay?" Nick pinches the bridge of his nose and just sighs. "Alton, I've tried lookin' for 'im. And to answer your question, I'm talkin' 'bout my brother, his Gardevoir, and the rest of 'is team. Dumbass went an' had his Gardevoir teleport them without 'er knowing teleport, they could be anywhere." "Oh." "Yeah. Oh."

Nick gets grouchy when he's stressed. He doesn't mean to take it out on his assistant. Oh, and by the way, meet Victor Alton. He's Nick's assistant, he's the oldest of four, he a bit of a tinker, and he's going into Pokemon care. He's working with Nick currently to study the long history between people and Pokemon and how they have taken care of each other.

Shadows, Steel, and Fire are gathering soon, you’d best prepare, little human and Gardevoir crew!~

I am legitimately confused.

Kenji, if this is you, knock it off.

Oh, and if this is someone’s attempt at starting an rp, get off anon and pm me, then we’ll talk.

[ask-justin-and-angel]

Um, sorry guys, not gonna be any story posts this week.

I know I just came back, but I should be posting next week.

I’ve just been busy, between a big test thing and a meeting for job training, then some major issues with a friend (which I will not elaborate on out of respect for said friend). Some of you know exactly what I’m talking about.

But yeah, I haven’t written anything yet and am not in the mindset to do so. I know where I want to go next story-wise, but I’m really not okay enough to do so right now.

In the meantime, if anyone wants to send in an ask (not that anyone ever does), feel free, it’ll give me something to distract myself with. I would honestly appreciate it. This whole thing with my friend has me rather shaken.

[ask-justin-and-angel]

By the time the sun has gone down, the group has all gathered back into the cave, with Lanna and Ricky in their balls by choice, and Luffy in his ball on time out, having gone to harass Ricky the moment Lucas wasn't looking. Lucas and Sandra have both gone to sleep by now, leaving only Angel, Justin, and their egg. Justin stands up from where he was sitting. "Well, I think it's about time for my shift." "Justin... are you sure about this?" "Angel, even if I wasn't sure, I would still do this. That's what parents do. They watch over their kids. Besides, I'm not gonna leave the cave tonight, okay? I'll wake you up the moment I feel weird." "...You're right. I might not like it, but you're right." She yawns. "Besides, after today, I need some sleep myself." "Heh. Goodnight dear. And don't you worry, Lily and I will be fine." "If you say so." She rolls over and slowly falls asleep, leaving just Justin and the egg. He just smiles and shakes his head, before taking off his shirt and being enveloped in a bright flash. Now with wisps of flame trailing down his back, he bends down to pick up the egg from down near the fire, where they put it to stay at least a bit warm, before walking over to one of the cave walls and leaning against it, sliding down to sit with the egg in his lap. About an hour passes in silence before he seems to get impatient. "...Man. It's way easier to stay calm normally. I must get cranky without my bedtime, huh Lily? Hehehe..." The egg doesn't respond. "Anyways, hows about I tell ya a story to pass the time. Who knows, maybe you'll even remember it when ya hatch." No response. "I've got a good one. Hows about I tell ya how your mom and I met when we were kids."

As Lucas is heading outside, he sees Luffy slowly approaching a sleeping Ricky, wielding a stick. He says nothing, but grabs him by the tail and drags him away. Luffy pouts before throwing his stick towards Ricky, missing him entirely. Ricky merely sleeps on, completely unaware. Lucas drags him over next to a tree and lets go, before pointing to the base of the tree. "Time out. Now." Luffy glares at him. "You really don't want me to get Master Justin, young one. Sit. Now." He continues to pout, but sits down. "Good." He turns around to face Sandra, who has been watching the exchange with a bemused look. He sits down a few feet away, and she follows him, before sitting down next to him, cradling the egg. "I'm assuming you have questions, Miss Sandra?" "Got it in one. And if I've told you once, I've told you a thousand times, it's just Sandra darling." He blushes slightly. She doesn't notice. "R-right. Well, Sandra, ask away." "Okay then. Justin said something about changing back cause he ran out of energy. Now, is that the truth, or was he sugar coatin' it for Angel?" "It is... more or less the truth, based on what the two of us could decide upon." "Meaning?" "I do believe he shifted back due to running out of energy, but it is also possible the amount of time spent in a fairly unfamiliar form might have something to do with it as well. There is simply no way of knowing without having him repeat the experience, simply to see the results." "...Right. You know honey, you can just say you weren't sure. No one expects you to know everything, after all. "...Yeah, I know."

[ask-justin-and-angel]

A few minutes after Justin and Lucas have finished talking, Angel walks in holding the egg, followed by Sandra. Upon seeing that Justin is awake, Angel rushes over to his side. "Justin, you're awake!" she says, clearly overjoyed. "Hey Angel. Is the egg okay? I didn't fall on her or anything, did I?" "Is the egg- yes the egg is okay! She's fine, that's not what I'm worried about right now! Are YOU okay?! What in Palkia's name happened?!" He rubs the back of his neck sheepishly. "Um, yeah, I'm fine. We think I just used up too much energy. I probably would have been fine had I just changed back once I started getting dizzy, instead of holding it until I got the egg over to you." "Oh. Um... You really are okay? You're sure?" "Sweety, I'm fine. I promise." Her lower lip quivers a bit, and she turns around and hands her egg over to Sandra. She then turns back to Justin and just wraps her arms around him tightly, not saying a word. He just sighs and pulls her in closer to hold her. Lucas gets up and walks over to the others. Sandra looks up at him questioningly, but he just shakes his head and keeps walking. She just shrugs and follows.

*Pokes head around the corner*

Hello? Anyone still here? I promise I'm not dead yet. I'm just slow and lazy.

Anyways, I wanted to say hello before the story starts up again, and give a minor recap of "recent" events in the blog to refresh memories. When we last checked in with our ragtag group of idiots, they were kinda but not really on the run by hiding in a cave. Justin had figured out he could change forms at will if he had used said form before, and had done a night shift to keep his and Angel's egg warm through the night. Oh, right, they also had an egg, cause they got far too overexcited about being a new couple. Anyways, he passed out by morning, simply cause he stayed shifted too long and had used up too much energy training earlier. He's fine now by the way. And that's more or less where we left off, though even I had to refresh my memory at this point.

Hope there's still somebody around to read this stuff! A simple like on this post or any old ask sent in as a role call will do to let me know. Doesn't even have to make sense, the ask. Hell, just send in the word "potato", I don't care. See ya'll tomorrow for the first story post in ages.

I must go now, my planet needs me!

*flies off*

P.S. The posting schedule will probably change to infrequent posts / Tuesday+Thursday, simply due to the fact that I'm changing the style of writing to look more novel-like, and more-so the fact that I'm starting job training in like a month. Toodles!

P.P.S. Happy Valentines Day, or whatever. I'm single, I don't care. As a present, however, have a little something I did and hid ages ago: http://ask-justin-and-angel.tumblr.com/Justin_form_bios

P.P.P.S. I changed the main font on the blog, it was hurting my eyes. Hopefully it looks nicer now.

Fireworks

Skiá: *Scampering through home base with a camera* So, for those who don’t know, Blitz, the Typhlosion, hates fireworks because of his Typhlosion instincts. They’re like, taunting to him. So, I’ve got a bunch of sparklers for new years. You know what’s up.

*Cut to Skiá lighting the sparklers in Blitz’s room*

Skiá: HAPPY NEW YEARS!

Blitz: WHAT THE FUUUUUU—

~~Technical Difficulties~~

~Please Stand By~

Continued Hiatus

Hey there. So, yeah, I’m still on hiatus, I mostly just wanted to let you guys know that I’m alive and still checking the blog, so if you wanna talk or ask a question, feel free.

As it is, the past week or two has been spent kinda... rebooting.

Some stuff happened in my life that had me a total mess for about two weeks, and I’m just recently back to a healthy mindset. Because of this, I haven’t actually done any writing since I first went on hiatus, and I’m not sure when I’m gonna be able to start doing so.

Therefore, I’m honestly not sure when the hiatus is gonna end, but I can promise I will be back eventually. After all, it’s not like I’ve stopped caring. I’ve just been too busy with life and mental health and stuff.

Anyways, that’s really it for now, so bye.

P.S. Sorry to anyone who thought this was a new story post. If I post something on a monday, that will probably be it.

[ask-justin-and-angel]

Ugh

Okay, so, I might be on a slight hiatus of indeterminable length for a bit, for several reasons.

First and foremost, all of my notes and such are saved to my laptop, and I’m gonna be a bit limited in computer usage for a bit. Don’t ask.

Secondly, I’ve been reading a lot of Rise of the Guardians fan-fiction lately (don’t judge me), and some of my favorite fics are written more like a novel than anything. Honestly, those written in a similar format to what I do now actually kinda bug me.

Simply put, I might do yet another format change for my posts, opting for a more novelistic approach.

Not sure what that will do in regards to posting schedule and such, but we’ll see.

In the meantime though, I have a bit of an exercise I wanna do. Forget ask memes. If you have any questions, any at all, for any of the muses/characters you’ve seen on here that belong to me, ask. Please. If anything, it’ll let me flesh out the world even more.

Jag, out. See ya!

[ask-justin-and-angel]

Well would you look at that.

Okay rescind my last ask, I nominate ask-justin-and-angel for level ball!

Congrats on your nomination, @ask-justin-and-angel! It’s not easy to keep an ongoing narrative on a blog. Doing so takes a lot of thought and imagination, and some collaboration too! Here’s to the best for you and yours!

[ask-justin-and-angel]

“It’s hero time!”

spoil your OC's storyline/character arc with no context

(inspired by those “spoil the ending of your favorite game/movie/book but with no context” posts)

[ask-justin-and-angel]

Jag: Sure, especially if you add a link back to me in some form!

Reblog this if you don't mind other muns mentioning your muse(s) in other threads!

[ask-justin-and-angel]

Fear.

Jag: Fear, huh? Okay then. I’ll probably list off about 1 fear per person/Pokemon, just to keep it a reasonable length.

For starters, Justin. Honestly, he isn’t scared of much, especially now that he can effectively fight back. Mostly his fears boil down to losing those he cares about, namely Angel, though Lily is included in this now that it is dawning on him that the egg is a living thing. Is starting to become worried about the fact that his mind changes when he does, mostly cause he doesn’t want to hurt his family.

Angel’s main fear would be Dark type Pokemon, namely the Sneasel and Poocheyana evolution lines, although all Dark types freak her out. Otherwise, mostly just worries about those she cares about, like Justin does.

Lucas is always afraid he’s going to let people down, mostly by not being strong enough when needed. As a result, he’s become one of Justin’s strongest Pokemon.

Sandra is rather fearless, although she is a bit of a busybody and is always concerned for the sake of others. She is, however, scared of heights.

Luffy is a bit too silly and such to really be afraid of much, although anything angry and bigger than him tends to scare him. Basically, he’s a child.

Ricky is actually mostly unconcerned with just about everything. No phobias, no worries, etc. (I’m not kidding. In my personal notes, one of his character traits is ‘doesn’t give a shit’).

Sandra is terrified of being stuck on land on her own, as she is essentially immobile when out of water.

Nicholas is worried about the health and safety of his Pokemon, as well as that of his brother, although he doesn’t always show it.

Anyone else will have to be requested specifically.

Fun fact though, Sandra’s fear of heights mirrors my own.

[ask-justin-and-angel]

Pride (Justin)

Jag: I just realized that I basically use myself as a template for Justin. I really should have thought about that before doing this. XD

Anyways, I would say that him and I both share this trait, which is having a very hard time asking for help, especially when making bad choices.

It’s honestly not even a true pride thing, it’s just that I personally don’t like to bother people, and Justin feels the same. It’s a bit of an issue honestly.

Anyways, this is part of why Justin first ended up dying at the start of the blog. He doesn’t think things through, and doesn’t always ask for help when he needs to.

Oh, and sorry for not having him answer this, but I just realized the ask meme was worded to suggest the mod would answer. Also, it’s just easier for me this way.

Anyways, thanks for the ask!
