WIP Acrostic Tag Game

Thank you to : @littlemisskittentoes @14carrotghoul @sophie1973 and @porcelainmortal for the tags!

Rules: From your story/WIP, find sentences that start with each letter of the given word. (I was able to find sentences relatively easily by searching for the letter preceded by a space and a period in my doc)

Goodness, apologies mine is so long! Ha - Is it good or bad I have so many WIP to choose sentences from. Its, partially why it took me so long to finish this! But you can read it under the cut if you're interested!

****

Words given to me to use: RUSH, WALES, SING, FANG, LIFT (optional)

Word for you to use if you want to play: BREAK

****

RUSH

R - "Run a bath for your brother.” she said firmly to Cooper. (Cuffed - Klaine fic)

U- Unique squealed as she accepted the box. (If I Can Make Your Heart My Home - Klaine fic)

S - “Silly boy, “ he said shaking his head. (how ardently i admire and love you - FirstPrince Fic)

H - Humming in understanding, Kurt carefully looked around before asking: “So, am I allowed to be here then, if this “auction” is for members only? (I Know You Wanna Take Me Home - Klaine fic)

***

WALES

W - "We’re open 24 hours, sweetheart." (Puppy Love, FirstPrince fic)

A - A brave small boy scurried over to deposit a bowl and some bread in front of the visitor. ( the phantom touch of your hand - FirstPrince fic)

E - "Ewww . . . can we NOT have the conversation go in this direction." (how ardently i admire and love you - FirstPrince Fic)

****

SING

S - "Stop acting like you're being tarred and feathered. "( Color Me Intrigued - FirstPrince fic)

I- "I know you’re looking for your latest conquest." (I Know You Wanna Take Me Home - Klaine fic)

G - "Get off your ass and put your own laundry away." (let you put your hands on me - Sebklaine fic)

***

FANG

F - Footsteps fell, growing closer and closer, until someone -  the prince thought it was the archer -  stood before him. (Sanctuary - Klaine fic)

A - A loud bark of laughter caused the both of them to look down the hallway into the kitchen. (If I Can Make Your Heart My Home - Klaine fic)

N - Now Kurt wanted more. (I Know You Wanna Take Me Home - Klaine fic) 

G - “Gift.” Nora responded around a mouth full of food. (how ardently i admire and love you - FirstPrince Fic)

****

LIFT

I - "It is a rite of passage, especially in this area, no? (Color Me Intrigued - FirstPrince fic)

F - For a brief moment, all Kurt saw was a flash of a well toned abdomen as Blaine’s roommate rushed past the living room, trying to pull his shirt off over his head. (let you put your hands on me - Sebklaine fic)

T - "They come into Dalton House of their own free will and sign their contracts with the company with full understanding of what is expected of them. " (I Know You Wanna Take Me Home - Klaine fic) 

****

That was. Altogether, far too much fire, even by my own moderately skewed standards. Dear gods.

The good news is that Entei has been persuaded not to go through with the eruption after all, provided we can ensure his freedom, and that he was much more reasonable after being defeated in battle. Team Rocket was attempting something similar here to what they attempted at the Power Plant, channeling the fiery power of Cinnabar Volcano into driving Entei past his natural limits to a point where he could do nothing but lash out.

Causing that eruption was his way out... and it also would obliterate Blaine's gym, again, so you may be able to imagine that the Gym Leader here is less than pleased by what is now fortunately Entei's Plan B.

(He also seems slightly—slightly—more willing to join forces than Raikou was. I suppose that may partially be because plowing through the walls in an underground hideout would be far easier said than done.)

The bad news is that I am all but certain Archer lies in wait with an ambush. He won't be any real trouble, unless he has significantly more strength (in numbers or otherwise) than the last time I dealt with him, but I can't say I enjoy walking into an ambush.

Even if I am not doing so alone.

Fandom: Glee Pairing: Blaine Anderson & Sebastian Smythe Chapter Title: November 8th in a New World Chapter Summary: Blaine thought November 8th would be the defining date of every year, the date he found and then (one year later) lost Sebastian. Years later he put May 1st on his "crappy day list" when half the world disappeared.

Today, while the world outside is in chaos, a magic portal has opened in front of him. He has a feeling he’ll be adding October 17th to his list.

Chapter Note: With this fic's focus on November 8th, it would have been nice for this prompt to be yesterday's, but that's the way it goes sometimes.🤪

10 Days of Seblaine 2023 Day 4: Inspired by Another Media

November 8, 2022

It took months for people to come out of the stupor they fell into after Thanos snapped his fingers. When they did, the majority went into one of two camps…those who chose to try to move on and those who got lost in their anger. Blaine was fortunate in that most of the people he knew fell into the first camp.

Then there was Clint.

Watching his entire family turn to dust broke him and by the time what was left of Shield sent someone for him, he was long gone. The Archer did contact him once a month to check in, only because he promised not to tell anyone…especially Natasha. The longer this went on the more he wanted to tell her. He was well aware of Clint’s turn from Hawkeye to Ronan and all that entailed. But Blaine also knew if he said anything his friend would go off the grid completely. At least this way he knew he was still alive.

This didn’t mean he condoned what Ronan did and it made him sick to know in the pre-Snap world he would have been considered an accessory to multiple murders. But in the post-Snap world, you did what you could do to get from one day to the next.

Blaine hadn’t realized it was November 8th until Clint contacted him to say he was thinking of him. How he hated that it took losing his own family to understand Blaine’s pain. How he’d try to finally visit him sometime in the new year.

He wasn’t going to get his hopes up.

There had been a time where he couldn’t get out of bed on November 8th. The memory of Kurt and Burt telling him Sebastian and Sam were dead paralyzed him. That stopped in 2018. He didn’t have the time. He did have the time to honor those he lost. Dave (thankfully he and Xavier were still with him) suggested they have a memorial stone made. It took over a year but when it arrived 2 weeks earlier, Blaine cried for the first time in months. There were so many names. They were told half the population was lost in the Snap but his loss was closer to 95%.

However, today wasn’t about them. They were May 1st. Today was about the two plaques on the smaller stone in front of the memorial.

Sebastian Smythe Not snapped away Gone in the blink of an eye January 14, 1995-November 8, 2012

Sam Evans Son, Brother, Master of Impressions Founding member of Blam February 17, 1995-November 8, 2012

Even though the November wind was blowing, it was unseasonable warm for Ohio so he sat on the bench they’d placed in front of the memorial. He was immediately joined by a friend.

In the early days of their collective nightmare, Blaine had to find items to both feed and care for Lord Tubbington. He quickly found out there were hundreds of orphaned pets in just the Westerville area. Without thinking he volunteered Dalton as a sanctuary and rallied people to find these animals and bring them in. A month later he had what the surrounding area called Dalton Zoo.

It took time but people began to get back on their feet and were willing to adopt these pets.

But there was a tiny golden retriever who had lost not only his owners but mother and siblings. Blaine gave him round the clock care until he was a hyper, mischievous but loving puppy. He had no choice but to adopt the puppy and name him Sammy.

“Whatcha doing boy?” he asked as Sammy licked his face then laid down on the bench with his head on Blaine’s lap. “Did you know I was feeling sad?”

“Hi Uncle Bow! Hi Sammy!”

He had been so far in his head he hadn’t noticed the screen appear out of nowhere. He really had to find a way to get Saturday to alert him when someone was calling, especially Tony. But since it was Morgan, he’d let it slide this time.

“Hi Sweetie!”

“Daddy said you were sad today and to cheer you up. Do you want to sing a song with me?”

Tony knew he refused to sing again after Sebastian died. The obnoxious billionaire took it as a challenge. Once his daughter could talk, he taught her to ask him to sing with her. Blaine had always been able to distract her, but now that Morgan was getting older, he didn’t know how much longer he could hold out.

“I am sad Sweetie, but you know what would make me feel even better than singing a song?”

“What?”

“You telling me about all the times your Mommy got mad at Daddy for running off to Uncle Bruce to do science.”

“So many times!”

“Hey! No talking behind my back” Tony whined as he kissed Morgan on the cheek and told her Pepper was looking for her.

“Bye Uncle Bow! Oh, I forgot. Can I come play with the animals?”

“I don’t know. Is your Daddy going to play science with Dalton again?”

Morgan turned to her father and smiled. “Busted! Bye again Uncle Bow! Bye Sammy!”

When she was out of ear shot, Blaine smiled and said “Next time you pull that crap, I’m going to ask Morgan if she wants a puppy. Or, we had two ponies born last month.”

“I have no problem with that but Pepper’s another story.”

“Yeah, I’m actually scared of her. But seriously, thanks for checking on me. I can’t believe it’s been 10 years.”

“Did you read the letter?”

“No, I thought maybe this was the year, but Xavier is having a bad day…week.”

“You know you’re never going to fully move on until you read it.”

“So, I’d be like 50% of the population?”

“Bow…”

“Tony, I tried.”

“You hooked up with a guy who we got out of NYC with that obnoxious girl from your old Glee Club. A guy you knew would return to NYC as soon as it livable again.”

“Elliot went home to California to help his mother. And from what I’ve heard NYC is still barely livable. It has to be if Rachel is still living with her Dads.”

“Fine, we’ll discuss it when Morgan, Bruce and I are there on Friday.”

“Are you kidding? Why?”

“Yearly maintenance on your arc reactor.”

When Tony rebuilt Dalton, he put in an arc reactor like the one he put in the former Stark Towers. When power shut down across the country on the 2nd night, nothing at Dalton even blinked.

“Ok, maintenance on the arc reactor is acceptable. Also, you’ve got to do something about Saturday not announcing my video calls and just putting them through. I was on the toilet this morning when Cli…” Shit!

Tony knew exactly who Blaine was talking about, or not talking about. Rhodey told him Barton was #1 on the government’s most wanted list. “Bow?”

“I’m not going to talk about it so drop it.”

The (former?) Avenger sat back into his chair and stared at the boy who had turned into a remarkable man in the face of tragedy. It made him miss the boy he couldn’t save even more. “We’ll discuss it when…”

“I know, I know, when you, Morgan and Bruce are here on Friday. Do I need to warn the neighbors you’re coming in one of your jets or a spaceship?”

“My jet plus a supply plane.”

“Supplies for the animals or supplies to store in my basement with the rest of the Iron Man technology you’re hiding?”

“Both. You know, it was brilliant to set up this charity so I can move stuff back and forth with no one being the wiser.”

“That’s not why I did it.”

“Keep telling yourself that. I know you love me.”

“Not until you make me a lightsaber.”

October 17, 2023

“You have no idea why Tony sent those boxes?” Dave asked as he and Blaine came up from the basement. “Or why they’re marked Do not open. That includes you, Anderson?”

“None whatsoever. And the fact he sent a supply plane without telling me? He always gives me a heads up so I can warn the neighbors.” “What about sending that huge jet with just those few boxes? You and I were able to move them ourselves. And no pet supplies?”

“Pepper told me he was working with the Avengers again but…”

The conversation ended when the entire room became shaded in a red hue. It’s exactly the same thing that happened the day of the Snap, except Dave wasn’t freaking out.

“Saturday, what’s the threat level?”

“Unknown”

“Can we get visuals?”

A screen appeared with the screen divided into four parts. They were showing news footage from major cities across the country and they were all showing the same thing…people appearing out of nowhere.

“Saturday, can we get local footage?”

The picture on the screen changed to what must have been traffic footage. The intersection they were showing was less than 3 miles away. What was happening in Westerville was no different than the major cities. Except…

“Oh my God!” Dave yelled as he moved closer to the screen. “That’s my Dad! But he was Snapped. I’ve got…”

“Go, but be careful.” Dave was already out the door so Blaine continued to watch the footage to see if he saw anyone else he recognized. Were people who were Snapped coming back somehow?

Was everyone who was Snapped coming back? Did that mean his Mom…Clint’s family…

“Brittany”

He was running out when he was stopped by sparks. There were only a few in the beginning but more and more appeared, all in the form of a widening circle. Soon the circle was big enough he could see two people inside it. A man wearing some sort of robe and waving his harm in a way that made Blaine believe he was causing the sparks.

The other was Pepper wearing a suit Tony had obviously made for her.

“Pepper, what’s going on?”

“I don’t have time to explain.” She walked through the circle (portal?) and handed him a large envelope. “This has power of attorneys, deeds to everything, bank account numbers, birth certificates, shot records…”

“Pepper, you’re scaring me.”

“I’m sorry but Tony and I never got the chance to tell you…” She turned when another man in a robe walked through the circle holding Morgan and what looked like a packed bag. He handed the little girl to her mother and quietly said something along the lines of We’re out of time.

Pepper kissed Morgan on the side of the head then handed her to Blaine. “Be good for Uncle Blaine. Mommy and Daddy love you more than anything.”

And just like that the circle was gone.

November 8, 2023

I, I wish I could swim Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim Though nothing, Nothing will keep us together We can beat them, for ever and ever Oh we can be Heroes, Just for one day

Twelve years from the day he met Sebastian and eleven years from the day he lost him, Blaine broke his vow to never sing again. But when Morgan Stark asked him to sing a song with her on the day of her father’s funeral, he wasn’t going to turn her down. 

He'd actually been singing songs with the little girl ever since her mother walked through a magic circle and left her with him. However, today was different. It was November 8th. He hated this day so much.

Brittany was a big help while Morgan was at Dalton. She'd tell her stories about how she used to be scared and sad all the time, but Blaine always made her feel better. Then she told her what a special little girl she was for Blaine to sing with her because she hadn't heard him sing in a long time. She did leave off the part about being gone for 5 years.

Pepper contacted him 2 days after Tony's death to tell him what happened but didn't want Morgan to know until she could tell her. It was a few more days before she walked through another magic circle, this time to bring her daughter home.

For some reason, he was surprised when Pepper invited him to the memorial service she was having for her husband. There was no doubt she and Tony loved him. Hell, they left him their daughter.

At least one of parents made it back.

The problem was, for all these years, he was what they called Tony’s dirty little secret. At first it was to hide Brittany. Then it was to hide Iron Man technology Tony didn’t want to get their hands on…just in case. But Pepper insisted even though General Ross, one of the people he’d been hiding Brittany from all the time, would be there. They came up with a cover story of him being one of the winners of Tony’s scholarship at MIT. Then, during the 5 years the others were gone, they became friends when Tony took on Blaine’s animal charity as one of his pet projects (pun intended).

None of it was necessary. Ross never talked to anyone and left the moment the formal part of the ceremony was over.

Asshole

The service was short but sweet. He could tell Tony was respected by his fellow Avengers, even loved by a few. He finally got to meet Peter Parker, the boy he’d been so jealous of for taking away Tony’s attention. They laughed at how similar they were, expect Peter could do all that cool, twisty, swing from buildings stuff.

He hugged Clint longer and harder than he should have. Despite getting his family back, he was still living in a hell made of his own actions. He was never going to get over her sacrificing herself when he believed it should have been him as penance for Ronan.

Wanda was nothing what he expected. For so long she’d been the example Tony help up as the reason to keep Brittany’s genius away from people who would exploit it. And even though she almost defeated Thanos by herself at one point (that was mind boggling) she was as damaged, if not more so, as the other survivors of the battle with Thanos. But he could tell, when (not if) she completely broke down, it wasn’t going to be pretty.

About 2 hours later, he found Pepper to say goodbye. A sorcerer named Dr. Strange (seriously) was going to make one of those magic circles (which he found out were actually portals) for him to go home. But before she let him go, she asked to talk to him in private. Tony had left him something…just in case.

Hours later Blaine was sitting alone in the Warblers Commons (he should really start calling it a living room), staring at the elegant box he’d been given. It kind of looked like a jewelry box, but why would Tony leave him jewelry? He never wore any.

Finally, he opened the box and cried the moment he saw what the man he loved like a father, left him.

Tony Stark built him a lightsaber.

Blaine carefully removed it from the box. He studied the hilt and noticed three buttons. Two were black and one was red. Knowing Tony, one being red was a sign for press me first. So, he did.

A beam of light shot out which he assumed was the same technology Tony used in his blasters substituting for the saber. He was wrong.

It was a hologram.

“Hey, Bow! Miss me?”

Notes:

I always wondered who Pepper left Morgan with because it couldn’t be Happy. He was back but there wouldn’t be enough time to get to the lake house. Plus, being gone 5 years, he wouldn’t know about the house in the first place.

Blaine takes the place of the kid from Iron Man 3 at Tony’s funeral.

Phoebe - Unsure

Sidney - Unsure. Wonderful hype man tho

Courtney - Look above at Shelly. Also she does have that obsession with Maxie, though I'm not sure if I want that to be familial or romantic.

Tabitha - Look above at Matt. Tabitha is. Interesting to say the least. The more I think about it, the more I think the ship I mentioned above…. probably wouldn't work. Same with Shelly and Courtney to an extent. Honestly I think he's perfectly fine being single.

Anabel - Look above

Noland - Unsure

Charon - No bitches

Clemont- His sister keeps trying to get him to date someone lmao. He's moreso interested in his machinery but maybe one day?

Wulfric - has a wife and two kids of his own! Loves them a whole bunch.

Drasna - :)

Siebold - Has not yet realized any of his feelings lmao.

Wikstrom - He has a wife. No kids.

Plumeria - Had the hots for Ames' mom but that didn't go anywhere. Single.

Kahili - Unsure

Magnolia - Still is with her husband. Sonia is her only grandchild.

Sonia - Dating Nessa

Hop - Um. Not sure. I like Hop x Bede but also not sure of I would want it in canon. Hop is ace too, so he's not really focused on those kinds of relationships for the most part. He does get flustered easily lol.

Marnie - It takes her 5 years to get with Naomi. But they get there!

Bede- Similar to Hop. Though I'm honestly just having fun writing his platonic relationships with everyone. He did mistake his platonic feelings/friendship with Naomi for a crush but he quickly realized it wasn't the case.

Milo - Ends up with Gordie

Kabu - Uncertain only bc I like so many hcs. Like I like him and Peony together but also just him vibing by himself is fun. Also him and Melony is cute. So yeah, not sure.

Bea - Eh. She's more focused on school and martial arts to care.

Allister - Has experienced a crush before but is waaaay to shy to do anything about it. Grateful to have the crush as a friend though.

Melony - Divorced and has 5 kids ( Gordud, a daughter, and then triplet sons)

Gordie - Ends up with Milo

Piers - I might change this later only bc I'm really thinking about it, but I do see him in a poly relationship with Leon and Raihan. Again might change.

Raihan - Look above. But unlike piers, him and Leon are always end game.

Leon - Again. Look above.

Rose - Had a relationship with Cassandra before realizing she was pregnant was Carol. Was pretty much married to his work after that.

Oleana - similar case to Courtney, though maybe after a lot of therapy she gets with a nice lady.

Mustard and Honey are a couple, with Hyde.

Peony - Similar case to Kabu. Not sure. He has Peonia and recently Carol so he's honestly living his best life.

Klara - Way too toxic to be in a lasting relationship atm. She probably gets better after IoA but uh. Yeah. Not a great dating life.

Avery - Probably had never dated anyone ever…..yeah I can see him and Klara getting together at some point. It is, surprisingly, pretty healthy.

Sada and Turo are, miraculously, together in this au. They're also both dead.

Clavell- Unsure, waiting for the indigo disk to come. To really make my judgement. Was planning on giving him a husband.

Nemona - Unsure. Power of friendship real tho.

Penny - Unsure. above.

Mela- Slow to any romance, due to past experiences.

Atticus - Unsure

Ortega - is only 13, and while he knows who he is, he takes much more enjoyment being around his friends.

Okay gonna cut the single format, let's get right to the case.

Dendra/Miriam.

Larry is Divorced…..and also has his eyes on Hassel and Brassius who are already a couple. Has not made a move and plans to never ( he fails at this btw). Giacomo is his son ( until I change my mind).

Ryme has a partner but they broke it off. She's happily single now.

Tyme is the opposite with a husband of her own.

Iono doesn't date cause that would mess with her viewers.

Katy and Saguaro seem really cute,I'm considering it.

Jacq - Single dad ( Ramona). Is unaware of a theater teacher's feelings towards him.

Geeta and Rika definitely has a Thing but neither of them really addresses it. They're in their own world.

Poppy - Just wants Larry to say he likes Hassel and Brassius already. Also thinks boys have cooties.

Grusha - Was too depressed to consider dating anyone but is coming around to the idea.

Raifort scares people away lol.

Kofu - Unsure

Tulip - Just doesn't have the time to date

( aggressively points to Luca and Kieran) Kindergarten Divorce.

Carmine - Unsure. Wouldn't be surprised if she scares some people away.

[lacrimosathedark]

I know I'm probably a weirdo for this, but one day I got to thinking, what if Pokemon was lingually accurate? Like, if characters were named appropriately based on their region? So I actually went through Bulbapedia and compiled a list of every major character's names in other languages. And just in case anyone else was curious, I thought I'd share it.

I'm going from the English base, so I'm majorly not including Unova, Galar, and most of Alola. Ones that are weird or are migrants I give explanations for.

Kanto: Japanese

Red: Same in English and Japanese

Leaf: Same in English and Japanese

Blue: Technically referred to as Green in Japanese since the original games were Red and Green (hence remakes being FireRed and LeafGreen), but is considered Blue internationally and it makes more sense to me (Red picks Charmander, rival picks Squirtle to be better, thus Blue).

Kakeru (Chase)

Ayumi (Elaine)

Shin (Trace)

Takeshi (Brock)

Kasumi (Misty)

Lt. Surge: His original title is "The Lightning American" and there's a whole tribute gym to his in Alola, so it's very likely he's from an America-inspired region, thus English name.

Erika: Same in English and Japanese

Kyou (Koga)

Anzu (Janine)

Natsume (Sabrina)

Katsura (Blaine)

Kanna (Lorelei)

Siba (Bruno)

Kikuko (Agatha)

Wataru (Lance)

Rocket-dan (Team Rocket): Literally written in katakana "ro-ke-t(su)-to"

Sakaki (Giovanni)

Ohkido Yukinari-hakase (Professor Samuel Oak)

Johto: Japanese

Hibiki (Ethan)

Kris: Same in English and Japanese

Kotone (Lyra)

Silver: Same in English and Japanese

Hayato (Falkner)

Tsukushi (Bugsy)

Akane (Whitney)

Matsuba (Morty)

Shijima (Chuck)

Mikan (Jasmine)

Yanagi (Pryce)

Ibuki (Clair)

Itsuki (Will)

Karin (Karen)

Minaki (Eusine)

Apollo (Archer)

Athena (Arianna)

Lambda (Petrel)

Lance (Proton): Yes, this is confusing with the Indigo Champion's English name being Lance.

Utsugi-hakase (Professor Elm)

Hoenn: Japanese

Yuuki (Brendan)

Haruka (May)

Mitsuru (Wally)

Tsutsuji (Roxanne)

Touki (Brawly)

Tessen (Wattson)

Asuna (Flannery)

Senri (Norman)

Nagi (Winona)

Fū (Tate)

Lan (Liza)

Juan: His Japanese name is Adan, but he uses different foreign words by localization (English in Japanese, Spanish in Viz's anime dub, and French in the Adventures manga's translation) so is likely foreign. Juan is his name in English, German, and French.

Mikuri (Wallace) Rune no Tami (Sootopolitan)

Kagetsu (Sidney)

Fuyou (Phoebe)

Glacia: Her name in Japanese is Prim, but she's implied to be from a more Western-based region. Glacia is her name in both English and French.

Genji (Drake)

Tsuwabuki Daigo (Steven Stone)

Datsura (Noland) Factory Head: Same in English and Japanese

Kogomi (Greta) Arena Captain (Arena Tycoon)

Tucker: Implied to be foreign, especially as his Japanese name is Heath. Tucker is his English name, and most other Romantic translations are loosely similar and come from the respective languages' word for "tactics". Dome Superstar (Dome Ace)

Azami (Lucy) Tube Queen (Pike Queen)

Ukon (Spenser) Palace Guardian (Palace Maven)

Odomaki-hakase (Professor Birch)

Sinnoh: Japanese

Kouki (Lucas)

Hikari (Dawn)

Jun (Barry)

Hyouta (Roark)

Natane (Gardenia)

Sumomo (Maylene)

Maximum Mask (Crasher Wake): Maybe a little more clearly than the English name, it's a stage name and his real name is unknown. He's called "Maxi" for short, so it could just be that.

Fantina or Kiméra: Her name in Japanese is Melissa, which is a clearly Western name along with using foreign phrases. The difficulty here is in original Japanese (as well as French, logically) she speaks English, while most other localizations she speaks French. Fantina is her name in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. Kiméra is her name in French.

Suzuna (Candice)

Denzi (Volkner)

Ryou (Aaron)

Kikuno (Bertha)

Ōba (Flint)

Goyou (Lucian)

Shirona (Cynthia)

Kurotsugu (Palmer) Tower Tycoon: Same in English and Japanese

Neziki (Thorton) Factory Head: Same in English and Japanese

Dahlia: Same in English and Japanese Roulette Goddess (Arcade Star)

Kokuran (Darach): His Lady may be likely Unovan, but his lineage is never specified and he seems to have a Hisuian ancestor, so him being from Sinnoh is likely, hence Japanese name. Castle Butler (Castle Valet)

Argenta or Kate: Kate is her name in Japanese and is clearly Western. Argenta is her name in English, German, and Spanish. Stage Madonna (Hall Matron)

Momi (Cheryl)

Gen (Riley)

Baku (Buck)

Miru (Mira)

Mai (Marley)

Looker: Honestly, I just prefer Looker because it seems smoother to say as a codename than his Japanese codename which is Handsome. Looker also has the double meaning that Handsome doesn't, like he's looking/watching, because he's a detective. Looker is also his name in Portuguese, and sometimes in German, Spanish, and Italian. Every one of his codenames is a reference to his appearance ex. LeBelle in German and Beladonis in French.

Ginga-dan (Team Galaxy)

Akagi (Cyrus)

Mars: Same in English and Japanese

Jupiter: Same in English and Japanese

Ginga-dan (Galaxy Expedition Team): Shares it's name with the modern Team Galaxy in Japanese, Chinese, Spanish, and Italian.

Kamado or Denboku: His original home region is unknown and he bears Galarian armor that looks strikingly similar to Kalosian Wikstrom. Denboku is from raidenboku, an alternate reading of the Japanese rowan, nanakamado, which is Rowan's Japanese name. Kamado also comes from nanakamado.

Shimaboshi (Cyllene): She is originally from Hoenn, but Hoenn is also Japanese so that means nothing for her name.

Perilla (Zisu) Keibi-tai (Security Corps)

Kine (Pesselle) Iryō-tai (Medical Corps)

Tao Hua: Same in English and Japanese Seizō-tai (Supply Corps)

Sazanka (Sanqua) Kenchiku-tai (Construction Corps)

Nabana (Colza): His original region is apparently unknown, but Japanese is still a safe bet. Also most other localizations stem from Nabana rather than Colza. Hatasaku-tai (Agriculture Corps)

Haku (Rye) Hatasaku-tai (Agriculture Corps)

Mube (Beni): His home region is apparently unknown, but Japanese is a safe bet. Imozuru-tei (The Wallflower): [directly from Bulbapedia] From imozuru (vines of Japanese mountain yam or sweet potato), Mitsuru (Wally), and tei (common suffix in restaurant names)

Taisai (Choy)

Sharon (Anthe): Oddly, Sharon is her Japanese name.

Ichō Shōkai (Ginkgo Guild)

Ginnan (Ginter)

Tsuiri (Tuli)

Volo: Same in English and Japanese Pokemon Tsukai (Pokemon Wielder)

Cogito (Cogita): She is a whole ass mystery, but Cogita (her name in English and German) is just a (non-existent) feminine form of Cogito, her Japanese name, which comes from Latin and basically means "I think", as in Decaretes' "cogito, ergo sum" or "I think, therefore I am". French and Chinese use the respective language's variation of the phrase as a base for her name, while Spanish and Italian use Greek words, for "wisdom" and "intelligence" respectively.

Professor Laventon: He's Galarian, so his name is English.

Unova: English The only ones I'm doing here are ones that AREN'T necessarily the English version.

Clay or Yakon: I've heard Clay may play on Japanese businessman tropes, and he has an ancestor in Hisui, so his name could be either of these.

Lacey or Taro: As Clay's daughter, her situation is the same as his.

Cyrano or Mirtilo: English and Spanish names respectively. Lives in Unova, but as Clavel's classmate could be from Paldea maybe? Saffron or Milo: As above

Kalos: French

Kalem (Calem)

Serena: Same in English and French

Sannah (Shauna)

Trevor: Same in English and French

Tierno: Same in English and French

Violette (Viola)

Lino (Grant)

Cornélia (Korrina) Héritière (Successor)

Amaro (Ramos)

Lem (Clemont)

Mache (Valerie): Mache is actually originally from Johto, hence her Japanese name.

Astera (Olympia)

Urup (Wulfric): Given he likely has a Hisuian ancestor, it wouldn't be unlikely for his name to be Japanese. Luckily, his Japanese and French names are the same!

Malva: Same in English and French

Narcisse (Siebold)

Wikstrom or Thyméo: Since we know his armor is likely Galarian his English name isn't out of place, but his French name is Thyméo.

Dracéna (Drasna)

Dianthéa (Diantha) Grande-Duchesse (Grand Duchess)

Aurore (Morgan)

Méridia (Dana)

Vesper (Evelyn)

Nix (Nita)

Millie (Emma) Elili (Essentia) Femme Louche (Suspicious Woman) Enfant Louche (Suspicious Child) Jeune Femme Louche (Suspicious Lady)

Lysandre: Same in English and French

Ancolie (Aliana)

Brasénie (Bryony)

Cyane (Celosia)

Myosotis (Mable)

Xanthin (Xerosic)

Professeur Platane (Professor Sycamore): Somewhat surprisingly, his Japanese and French names are the same, though they do both originate from the French word platane.

Alola: English Hawaii is an American state, and there isn't a Native Hawaiian translation of the games, so English is the default language here. But Hawaii does have ties to the East, so I will use some of the Japanese names if they make more sense to me. Most are just slight spelling changes anyhow.

Yo (Elio): Moved from Kanto to Alola, so Japanese name.

Mizuki (Selene): Moved from Kanto to Alola, so Japanese name.

Ma'o (Mallow): Technically her Japanese name is just Mao, but ma'o is the Hawaiian word for Hawaiian cotton and I feel spelling it that way feels better.

Sophocles or Māmane: Both names after the same plant, the Sophora chrysophylla, it's common and local Hawaiian name being māmane.

Hapu'u (Hapu): Hapu'u is her name in Japanese and comes from hāpuʻu, the Hawaaian tree fern.

Molayne or Mullein: Molayne is just a different spelling tbh and I kinda think it looks better.

Skipping Galar; there aren't really a lot of clear foreigners besides Kabu whose name is the same.

Paldea: Spanish and Portuguese I look at both languages because Paldea is based on the Iberian Peninsula and not just Spain. However, with Portuguese, I'm having to look at Brazilian Portuguese, which is not quite the same as European Portuguese, because that's almost all that's on Bulbapedia. I generally choose whether to use Spanish or Portuguese based on if said name is also the same as the English and/or Japanese name. Or default if only one is available. Also uhh my order might be a bit weird here because I didn't get to actually play these games. I kinda assumed you go through the teachers before Gym Leaders, so...yeah. I can re-order it later if that's wrong or confusing.

Florian: From an unknown region, but the same in English, German, Spanish, French, and Italian.

Juliana: From an unknown region, but the same in English, German, Spanish, French, and Italian.

Nemo(?): She is noted to not be from Paldea but her home isn't specified so it could be anything. Nemona is her name in English and E. Portuguese, Nemo in Japanese, Korean, Mandarin, and Thai, Noêmia in B. Portuguese, Nemila in German, Nemola in Indonesian, and Nemi in Italian. The odd ones out are Mencía in Spanish and Menzi in French.

Arven: Same in English and B. Portuguese

Academia Naranja (Naranja Academy)

Academia Uva (Uva Academy)

Miriam: Same in English and B. Portuguese

Saguaro: Same in English, Japanese, and B. Portuguese (as well as German and French)

Dendra: Same in English and B. Portuguese

Cloe or Mora (Raifort): Cloe is her name in Spanish, and Mora is her name in French, which I only include because her English/Japanese name Raifort is from the French word for horseradish apparently, so maybe she's Kalosian.

Silvio (Salvatore)

Mila (Tyme)

Jacques (Jacq): The B. Portuguese name as it's closer to his English name. His Spanish name is Cinio, which is Spanish for his Japanese name, Zinnia, which could be confusing considering Higana.

Clavel: Same in Japanese, Spanish, German, French, and Italian. English and B. Portuguese just adds another L. Clive: Same in English and B. Portuguese Director Escolar (Director)

Catarina (Katy): Her B. Portuguese name, which is closer to her name in English (Katy) and Japanese (Kaede).

Brais or Brás (Brassius): His Spanish and B. Portuguese names respectively, as both are very close to his English name.

Kissera (Iono): Her B. Portuguese name, comes from "O que será?" apparently meaning "what will it be?", which is closer to the intent behind her name in Japanese (Nanjyamo, name given to an unusually large tree that grows in a particular place; literally meaning "What is it?") and English (Iono, as in "I don't know") than her Spanish name, e-Nigma. Which makes me think of the Riddler.

Fuco (Kufo)

Laureano or Lauro (Larry): His Spanish and B. Portuguese names respectively. Larry could be a nickname for either though.

Lima or Citrina (Ryme): Her Spanish and B. Portuguese names respectively. Lima has the same puns on lime and rhyme that English and Japanese does, but tbh makes me think more of lima beans. Citrina is from citrino (citrus).

Tuli or Tulipa (Tulip): Her Spanish and B. Portuguese names respectively.

Grusha: Actually may be from an unrevealed Russian region as his name is Russian. It's also the same in most languages.

Cayena or Kaya (Rika): Her Spanish and B. Portuguese names respectively. Both come from cayenne, which isn't in her Japanese or English names. Her Japanese name is Chili, and Rika comes from paprika.

Poppy: Her name in English, Japanese, and B. Portuguese as well as German and Indonesian.

Hassel?: From and unknown region so could literally be anything, and all his names are very different.

Ságita or Guita (Geeta): Her Spanish and B. Portuguese names respectively. Supercampeona (Top Champion)

Team Star: Same in English and Spanish as well as German, French, and Italian

Penny: Actually from Galar, so her English name. Cassiopeia or Casiopea: English and Spanish forms respectively, referencing the constellation.

Giacomo: Same in English and B. Portuguese DJ Vil (DJ Vice)

Melo or Mélia (Mela): Spanish and B. Portuguese respectively.

Henzo (Atticus): Spanish name. Not like English or Japanese name, but his whole ninja theming makes Henzo fit better than the B. Portuguese Érico.

Ortega: Same in English and B. Portuguese, similar to Japanese, French, and Korean Ortiga.

Erin or Êri (Eri): Spanish and B. Portuguese respectively.

Profesor Sada: Same in English and EUROPEAN Portuguese, listed for once.

Profesor Turo: Same in English, Spanish, and Portuguese.

Kitakami: Japanese Not a region itself I don't think, but it's not connected to a specific region I don't think, so.

Zeiyu (Carmine)

Suguri (Kieran) Sugu (Kiki)

Sazare (Perrin): Actually from Sinnoh, but this is where you meet her so here she is. Shashinka (Photographer)

What do you think? Did I forget anyone important?

Okay this took way too long for something probably no one will see okaybaiiiiii

[goforglory]

Superficially Archer wants Cinnabar gone. He still hurts knowing the home he loved and cherished doesn't feel the same way, but he still cares about it. If there were different people, if he could get rid of at least Blaine he thinks he would feel much better, much less angry. But at this point he doesn't even think the island he considers home wants him back. He thinks he always has and always will love his home more than it ever has and ever will love him, if it ever did to begin with.
