[spiritexplosion]

bring back tumblr ask culture let me. bother you with questions and statements

[spiritexplosion]

*Nic dips his head at her, and Tallulah waves her paw*

Nic- Greetings Ms. Ivy, it's a pleasure meeting you.

*He extends a paw, and motions his head for Tallulah to do the same*

Tallulah- Hiya hun, nice to meet'cha!

*She notices Nic motioning, and also offers her paw*

Nic- Ah, just checking, thank you.

Maybe we'll try the savory one if that's all right?

Tallulah- Though you don't know you don't like something until you try it, with some exceptions, but it's a general concept! 😊

We could be missing out on something great!

Neither of us are allergic to anything, as far as we know!

*Try everything from Zootopia starts from somewhere*

I'm sure she'd love that!

She's a pink Umbreon with shiny Latias wings!

*Nic grabs the bag from Tallulah and hands it to Ivy*

(@rescuerivy)

@spiritexplosion Tallulah and Nic

*They wander over to where the Ogerpon is situated, Nic sniffing the air, intrigued by her treats*

Nic- Greetings madam, care for some chips in exchange for whatever those are that you brought.

*He points to the tray she's carrying.

He's usually very reserved, but he's trying to come out of his shell, so to speak*

Tallulah- Is anything Dry by any chance?

He doesn't like sweet, and I don't like spicy!

(Would ya mind if Lola @umbreonlatias visits you too? She's a BIG sweets fan. I was gonna send her to ya, but I haven't done anything with these two yet!)

"Name's Ivy, and I'm sorry, I don't have any dry treats with me, only sweet and savory ones." The Ogerpon explained. "But you have a friend you like sweet and savory food, I'll gladly give you a dango and mochi for those chips if you could take them to said friend."

(I don't mind at all! ^^)

[spiritexplosion]

Tallulah- Yowzers Nic!

Our first event, and with so many mons!

If you need a break, let me know and we can go outside/to the roof- if Reshiram and co aren't up there!

Ya got the chips?

Nic- *Nods their head and presents the chips to her*

This is nothing like Hisui, even the party for that human that fell out of the sky wasn't this busy!

At least it seems similar temperature wise, I don't know how I'd be in a warmer or colder climate

Tallulah- I usually like the cold areas better, and you like the temperate areas better, despite us having our own heat sources in tow.

I wonder who else is here!

We don't have "gijinkas", and we're not legends, but I hope we can still poke around!

Someone said there's a game being played, wonder what it is.

Coming from Hisui, the two have no idea who Reshiram is, or that she's associated with the truth, and why such a game is being hotly debated.

They may or may not accidentally stumble over there by accident. (IDK. 🤷‍♀️ Nothing to hide, so either way with them!)

Nic- Hmm, and there seems to be a lot of mons wearing clothing that look perfect for sleeping.

Do we have anything like that?

*Tallulah nods her head, and shows two outfits to them, both with pillows and blankets*

*Tallulah and Nic have arrived and are checking things out*

[spiritexplosion]

Hi again. I wanna ask a thing to whoever sees this.

If you're a pokeblog, can you reblog this? I wanna try and interact with more people should I become more active again. Also looking for more people in the community to follow in general. owo/

[spiritexplosion]

You know, an interesting tumblr transformation that's happened gradually, and which I've seen no one talk about: ask-culture has essentially dropped off to nothing.

By which I mean, asks used to be WAY more of the tumblr economy. They used to be more common to send, and receive, and see. They were integral to the collaborative, forum-like behavior of old tumblr communities, not even to speak on the HUGE number of ask-blogs that used to exist to only be interacted with in ask-form.

I'm not saying this in a vying-for-attention way but instead in an observational way: I used to get way way more asks in like 2015, even with a fraction of my follower count. I wonder if it's due to the homogenization of social media sites? There's a lot more of this divide between "content creator" and "consumer" instead of just a bunch of peer blogs who would talk to each other. "Asks" aren't really a thing on twitter, are they? And as I understand it, the closest thing to an "ask" on instagram or tiktok would be a creator screenshotting some comment and responding to it in a new reel or video or whatever those content mediums are. Are asks just too tumblr-specific? Is that aspect of the site culture dying out as more and more people converge to using all their social media sites in the same way?

[spiritexplosion]

These guys are still a work in progress, as I literally JUST got them the 16th and 17th of February 2024!

I dunno what gender identity the black one is/their relationship.

Yes, male, female works, having them as a pair works,

Brother/sister works.

I DO like the Tanjiro/Nezuko STRONG bond kinda idea!

-But what if they're both girls- hence the flat chested comment

-What if Nic/Lionel is a Butch Lesbian?

I myself am LGBTQA+!

I dunno 🤷‍♀️

But they're like digital toys, and toys you can, ahem, toy around with and change whenever you want!

I can take a stuffed Labrador Retriever, one day make it male, the next female, one day make it Tommy, the next Tammie etc...

It's just you can't do that with Pokémon as is- unless you got something in the Azurill line, though online forums like this make it easier to do such things.

Basically, stuff is not set in stone.

I'm pretty happy with Tallulah, but Nic/Lionel I'm kinda still playing with.

(I was gonna have her be Impish/Naughty in nature, but I let the competitive side get to me, despite me not being into the competitive side at all!

I really like the sneaking up on others part! 🤭

Scare people, but not real terror, that's not her thing.

If it's REAL terror, she starts wigging out!

Pacing around, leaving a trail of fire behind her, maybe mumbling like Izuku Midoriya from MHA!

I go online and get my butt whopped, so I don't even try...😅

Nic/Lionel was gonna be Brave/Quiet...

Maybe once I get talking with people, their gender will "evolve"! 🤭 - Among other things.

No matter what I decide to do, they'll NEVER do the deed with each other, or at least it'll be implied, or hey, suddenly there's an egg here kinda thing like they do in the games!

-Tallulah- can leave the H off, like Hanna/Hannah

-Female

-Fire/Ghost

-Likes Dry, Hates Spicy

-Modest

-She DOES have a cheeky streak though!

And will sneak up on others to spook them.

But if a real crisis, with real terror arrises, depending on the cituation, she will either go comfort someone involved, or start panicking herself, leaving fire in her wake, and accidentally singing stuff.

She's a pacer too! 🤭
