3, 4, 19, 20!
3. What ideas come from when you were little
I have two OCs that have really stood the test of time: Akane and Kin - though their names have changed over time haha ♪ They were the first ever queer couple I made, long long loooong before I was out even to myself and shock among shocks, they're angels lol ♥ I remember I even wrote a short story about them from like - middle school probably?? as part of an assignment haha. They've been with me for a loooong time, and I'm still very fond of them 💕
4. Fav character/subject that's a bitch to draw
GLaDOS is so beautiful and I am so bad at drawing machine parts jfdklsasdf. I'm determined to draw her from both games now tho! Her design in Portal 1 is so weird!! <3
19. Favorite inanimate objects to draw (food, nature, etc.)
Plushies, no contest. Drawings the seams and darts and stitches and wear and fluff and fabric vs. fur I just ugh it's all so satisfying! The way the cloth folds over itself or stands firm on its own over well-stuffed filling! I love plushies!! Funny enough, I rarely use them as props tho haha - that's usually things like books, cups, pencils, etc.
20. Something everyone else finds hard to draw but you enjoy
I haven't heard the complaint in earnest in a while, just in a jokey fashion, but I really really enjoy drawing hands :) Hand expressions are so fun to me! They're just as expressive as faces - especially masked characters haha - and they're so versatile! Come in so many shapes, some hard, some rubberhose wiggly, some sharp and Shaped, but they still all emote similarly. Even just slight position changing can change the temperature of how it reads! It's a challenge for sure but it's just so satisfying >:3c
#Woah an original post#Ask#Ask me#Thank you! :D Fun fun!!#I always love talking about my own lads hehe <3 <3#If I had to guess a year to put to Akane and Kin oh gosh hmm...#Somewhere around 2008/9 if I had to guess?? It's hard to keep track from before I was online haha and I joined kind of late#I've had them for a heck-while! I love them ♥ It's not shown in their tag I linked but I also made some Aarakocran versions of them haha#I still have a lot of the journals and stuff from when I was a kid but none of them have been as long-lasting#I think it's probably because I was very ''inspired'' by what I was reading at that time - which was mostly high school romance lol#Aya and Haruka are almost more like self-parody of that haha - not many characters survived from that time#But Akane and Kin were always in that vague sort of adults sort of teens haze that lets them convert over easily#Their problems weren't related to school or anything so it makes them more versatile :)#I wonder if I still have their short stories anywhere - I also cried while writing one of them lol I've always been the sensitive type haha#Sorry if GLaDOS is the obvious answer lol but it's true! I'm slowly improving but she really is difficult to pin down#Any kind of machinery my brain just blanks out lol. ''It is shaped'' ''How?'' ''Yes'' Pfft#Also rude to imply nature is inanimate! I almost mistakenly said tree but they are animate! They're very alive!#But that's alright - I like drawing trees but I don't very often haha#I really do love drawing plushies tho I lose my mind about them they're so cute <3 Send me pictures of your plushies I will love them /gen#And for hands I mean - I've been enjoying drawing them for so long that it almost feels like the Curse of Knowledge lol#Do people genuinely struggle with hands?? I mean I still do at times - especially closed fists or certain angles#But in general? When they're just hanging out and being silly fruity little appendages?#Or with ASL or the like ♥ They're so fun! My latests have been working with more knuckles than usual haha it feels weird#I never have to worry about same face syndrome with hands! They really feel so intuitively individual haha

Gen Z Things With The Hazbin Men Pt. 2
Have this while I finish up the next imagine <3 No Zestial this time around, I’m sorry! I couldn’t find anything for him.
Alastor:
Tooth-Rotting Nicknames
“Go to sleep my little coconut-flavored icecream,” You say, wrapping your arms around Alastor’s shoulders from behind, making him jump. “Or tomorrow you’ll be tired, my sweet sugar pancake.”
“I do not understand your generation,” Alastor chuckles, his cheeks growing warm as the sound of you giving him a big smooch envelops his radio tower. “But very well, darling.”
He stands up from his seat and offers you his hand, thankful for his coat as it shields his wagging tail from your sight.
Lucifer:
The Squishmallows Are Watching
“Do you think the Squishmallows in my room ever, like, watch in horror as you raw dog me?” You say, your limbs tangled underneath the sheets with Lucifer’s.
“Why did that thought cross your mind?” Lucifer stutters, his eyes darting between you and the cute, innocent plushies discarded on the ground.
“I don’t know, but I think I’m going to start turning them around,” You say, and he can’t tell if you’re being serious or not. “I feel bad for them.”
Husk:
Are You Ovulating?
“I like ya hair today, dollface,” Husk says as you take a seat at the bar, winking at you when you blush at his compliment.
The smug bastard.
“Then why don’t you pull it back and forth?” You purr, his eyes widening, but just for a moment.
“Ya ovulatin’?” Husk arches a brow at you, leaning onto the counter, his tail swishing below in excitement.
“How’d you know?” You ask, but he just shrugs, mumbling something about, ‘Just a hunch.’
Vox:
The Pick-Up Line
“All the grip I lost on reality went straight to my pussy,” You say as you approach Vox.
“Excuse me?” Vox stutters, putting his phone down.
“I’m serious, like, do you want me to show you?” You grin, leaning onto his arm with an enticing smile.
“Is that supposed to be a pick-up line?” Vox asks before sighing and wrapping an arm around you. “It’s stupid but it worked on me—come on.”
Adam:
Getting Bullied On Stream
“Ban the guy who just said I’m the reason they created double doors,” Adam says midway into his stream, trying to focus on his game. “Like, what?”
You try not to laugh, but then another out-of-pocket message pops up on his screen, making you fold.
“Daddy, pay my student loans?” You repeat through tears, clutching your stomach as Adam stares in horror.
“DON’T CALL ME DADDY!”
Angel Dust:
A Temporary Break-Up
“Wtf, I can’t believe after all that shit they’re back together,” You text Angel, instantly piquing his interest.
“Omg who?” Angel texts you back.
“My ass cheeks LMFAOOO.”
As soon as he hears you busting your ass off from the other side of the hotel, he blocks you.
Sir Pentious:
The To-Do List
“Darling, what isss that?” Sir Pentious asks as he looms over you, curious.
You jump, but it’s too late to hide what you were holding: a To-Do List. You had several boxes checked out but one.
“Uhhh,” You say, shooting him a nervous smile as his face flushes upon reading what’s on it.
- Give Pentious 100 hickeys on his chest at 9 o’clock.
“Must we wait til then?” Sir Pentious asks in earnest, twiddling his fingers as he stares up at the ceiling.
Valentino:
Attracting Flies
“I don’t chase, I attract,” Valentino says, taking a long drag of his cigarette.
You slowly turn to him with a shit-eating grin on your face. Velvette notices and she tries to stop you, but she’s too late.
“What do you attract, flies? Because I know you don’t—“ Velvette grabs you before he can throttle you.
Saint Peter:
I’m Not Your Baby Daddy
“Hey! Uh, I’m sure you’re wondering why I’ve asked you to meet me here,” Saint Peter starts, nervously scratching the back of his neck.
“No, not really,” You shrug, taking a sip of your drink.
“Are you sure?” Saint Peter asks, coming clean when you simply nod. “Okay, I asked you to come here because—look,” He leans over the table, whispering the next part with a blush, “Why are you telling people I’m your ‘Baby Daddy’?”
“I was just bored,” You say, leaning in with a smile, your face mere centimeters away from his. “I don’t hear you complaining, though. Wanna make it a reality?”
He freezes, caught off-guard, but he doesn’t say no to you.

MY TOP 25 BEST POKEMON
by popular demand, in descending order.
25. Galvantula
Tumblr media
she is so fluffy. they somehow made an electric spider one of the most cuddly pokemon designs of all time. WOULD get a plushie of her if i am being fully honest.
24. Scyther
Tumblr media
he's just some guy who is also a cool looking bug who also has swords coming out of his fucking arms. a rare example of a gen 1 pokemon design that is 'extremely based' and not 'extremely boring'.
23. Roserade
Tumblr media
Roselia in gen 3 was such a meh pokemon, so giving it this unexpectedly cool Tuxedo Mask evolution in gen 4 was awesome. I will be fully honest that my favorite version of Roserade is the shiny because it gets black and purple roses. cool as fuck
22. Scream Tail
Tumblr media
'what if we made Jigglypuff so so so so so so scary and it wants to maim and eat you now'. say no more
21. Calyrex (Shadow Rider i guess)
Tumblr media
as someone who skipped pokemon sword/shield entirely, this design is actually some of the coolest shit i've seen. weird looking deer knight riding on the back of a ghost horse? actually stupidly cool they were really cooking with this one.
20. Grovyle
Tumblr media
Every PMD fan on the fucking planet knows why I put this rando middle evo Grass starter on my favorite pokemon list. And they also know that i am objectively correct for doing so. no further explanation is needed
19. Decidueye
Tumblr media
listen this is a fucking Ghost Owl Archer, what a fucking idea, it's cool as shit and we love Decidueye in this household. the best grass starter in the game and it isn't even close. despite me putting one immediately before it on this list. no notes.
18. Gastrodon
Tumblr media
i love you gastrodon i love you sea slugs i love you having 2 different non-shiny designs/color schemes, i love you weird squishy suctiony cry/sound effects. gastrodon is maybe my best friend possibly ever
17. Ampharos
Tumblr media
listen even if lighthouses were not a special interest of mine i would still love the weird electric lighthouse sheep. look at this guy. truly one of THE pokemon designs ever.
16. Chandelure
Tumblr media
love this fucking thing it looks like a kingdom hearts boss. also ghost/fire is objectively one of the coolest type combos ever (foreshadowing is a literary device in which--)
15. Hisuian Zoroark
Tumblr media
this is a prime example of how the regional variants in modern pokemon can completely improve on the original. the original zoroark is a pretty generic edgy dog. this is a new and much more interesting take in general, it makes its once gimmicky Illusion ability much more sinister and tied to its backstory/lore. also such a great color scheme, i love the weird almost fungal looking growths on it?
14. Furret
Tumblr media
furret my friend furret. he is a tube and also my friend.
13. Noivern
Tumblr media
this is a vampire bat dragon, potentially the coolest thing to ever exist ever. you agree. also i like the color scheme, purple/green/red aren't usually things i would put together but it works very well here
12. Iron Valiant
Tumblr media
there is a tumblr post that calls this thing "so nonbinary it kills you" (or something like that) and holy shit are they right. what a cool mix of gardevoir and gallade's designs. plus making it a robot knight. cool as fuck, definitely the best paradox pokemon. and again, it isn't even close lmao
11. Mawile
Tumblr media
i remember being a little disturbed and/or weirded out by this thing when i played gen 3. over the years it has grown on me so much. what a weird fucking design. i too want a giant mouth horn growing out of my head. bonus points to mawile for also getting a sick mega evolution that i am pretty sure broke the metagame for a while. lol, lmao even.
10. Clodsire
Tumblr media
holy fucking shit it's clodsire. fuck yes. FUCK YES FUCK YES FUCK YES what an incredible re-imagining of quagsire i love it so much
9. Froslass
Tumblr media
imagine you're Glalie, the world's most generic and boring ice type of all time, evolved from Snorunt and already forgotten the moment you're introduced in gen 3. then gen 4 comes along and gives female Snorunts one of the coolest pokemon of all time as an evolution. truly THE most insane evolutionary glow up in the history of the franchise. anyway i love this thing, i love that she murders hikers and displays their corpses for people that's so cool i love you froslass congratulations on your transition
8. Hawlucha
Tumblr media
LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD LUCHADOR BIRD
7. Espeon
Tumblr media
definitely my favorite eeveelution, i love its simple design, the gem really ties it together. this is really one of those pokemon that feels like it'll be on your team for life. i will not elaborate on this
6. Bewear
Tumblr media
i fucking LOVE this thing it makes me so fucking uncomfortable to look at. it has the best lore of any pokemon ever: it hugs people to death. god what a cool pokemon if it shattered my spine i would probably just say 'ok'
5. Floette
Tumblr media
THIS IS MY WHITE WHALE, DUDE. I WILL NEVER BE OVER THE SUPER POWERED X/Y MAIN STORY VERSION OF THIS THING BEING CODED INTO THE GAME AS AN EVENT POKEMON AND THEN GAMEFREAK NEVER RELEASED IT. despite my bitterness i love floette whenever i see it. one of the quiet joys of scarlet/violet was seeing this tiny thing chilling out in the wild. to me its face is like The representation of happiness. i have no idea why i love it so much but i'm just happy whenever i see it
4. Suicune
Tumblr media
when i was little i was obsessed with this thing. i remember playing pokemon silver and being captivated by it. then i was THRILLED that of all pokemon they could pick they made it the mascot for crystal. when i went on road trips as a kid i would imagine this thing running alongside the car and had all sorts of mental AMVs with it. now that i am an adult and have had time to reflect on suicune, however, i have come to realize something: suicune is actually the coolest fucking thing ever and i was so fucking right all along about this
3. Hisuian Typhlosion
Tumblr media
i loved typhlosion as a kid, and most of my attachment to the original one is probably nostalgia related. however, like hisuian zoroark, this is one of those designs that just genuinely improves on the original in every way. i have NO idea why they chose to glam up typhlosion so much in legends arceus but i am so glad they did. adding Ghost typing is such a strange concept on paper but they executed it SO well. i love its dopey little look. what a gem of a design to find so recently in pokemon's lifespan.
2. Alolan Raichu
Tumblr media
the original Raichu has always lived in Pikachu's shadow-- it has a cool enough design, but no one is ever going to pay attention to it when it's prevo is literally the world famous series mascot. so i am THRILLED with what a great design Alolan Raichu has. it's so fucking cute, it looks unique while still being obviously tied to the original. i love that it looks like a pancake. i love adding Psychic type to it -- like with Hisuian Typhlosion, an odd idea in concept that works perfectly. i love that it surfs on its adorable, giant tail. GOD i love alolan raichu it is such a good pokemon
Flygon
Tumblr media
i love flygon, it's a sand dragonfly that evolves from the world's most adorable antlion. this is an instant pick for my team in every game it's in. i love its dragonfly eyes doubling as sand goggles. flygon is so cool you can make the argument for Dragon/Ground/Bug triple typing, but Gamefreak are fucking cowards and will never do that. it is because they are afraid of what flygon would do with this power. YAY FLYGON

I just found this blog so I'm jumping aboard the plushie bandwagon.
First we got Absol. (i feel like maybe i should've taken a closer-up picture but it's the face sooo)
Tumblr media
Then a Wooloo
Tumblr media
And, saving best for last, this Leafeon plush I own... of which I swear on my life is official merch.
Tumblr media
I also have some more eeveelutions (plus an eevee and a few more) but: 1. I didn't want to send too many. 2. Eeveelutions are more popular so I wanted to give some other people the chance to submit their own. 3. I don't know where my Pikachu and Snivy plushies are cuz I own too many stuffed animals.
Only reason I submitted Leafeon was so I could show off this ~masterpiece~ of a plushie I own. And it's face isn't the only thing wrong with it too lol. Also I just noticed I accidentally had one of the ears hanging back but I'm too lazy to go take another photo but i hope this amuses you nonetheless.
ALRIGHT THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF YOU AS I'VE BEEN OUT WITH MY FAMILY FOR CHRISTMAS HUH
let's start with these guys. beautiful. wonderful. i do not believe that that leafeon is official merch. this statement is baffling to me. welcome to the front-facing pokémon family. i love the eyes on that absol and wooloo is one of my faves. i was rather obsessed with it when it first came out and have a whole wooloo tag on my main blog because of it. though i guess i cleared that whole thing out recently so i don't anymore
let's get the nose ratings out of the way:
Tumblr media
↑ this is a lie. 10/10 chespin
Tumblr media
it's very wide and also 10/10 you're being too harsh. merry day to you too
Tumblr media
circular face indeed. did i already post this one? if i did you can have it again
Tumblr media
clodsire be upon ye. clodsire fans this is your treat until gen 9
Tumblr media
this is a trend now. i think tumblr just crunched this image to hell for some reason so here's what the text says:
"Felt like joining the others for front facing pokeplushies [images] I have more pokemon but its early morning and these are the plushies that are easy to access"
Tumblr media
i have not but i imagine "a moment" has long passed by now. my apologies but apparently today was an important day or something? idk
Tumblr media
YEAH it's super unbelievably fucked up. i think i kinda remember the circumstance being a bit dire so everyone else was more worried about either 1. protagonist getting stomped on brutally or 2. saving the world from kyurem / the bittercold. i was totally under the impression that he was dead in that moment but i guess the characters may have known that he would just come back? i seem to vaguely remember partner being surprised that he came back and being like "but we watched you die :OOO" but maybe i'm misremembering that. i do create a lot of pmd lore on my own time so i have a hard time telling the difference between canon and fanon sometimes
Tumblr media
two a day makes the world go round! this blog started when i started college, paused for 80% of my college career and now has started back up and i just graduated college a week ago. i would say "how time flies" but it has been a very, very long year
Tumblr media
i've said it before and i'll say it again: gen 6 is my favorite gen, so you'll be seeing lots of favor for this gen from me in the tags i'm sure. maybe gen 6 is my excuse to start doing other things here. like that stream i keep talking about
Tumblr media
if they put meloetta as a little obscure puzzle thang in sv, i'm sure they'll do something for genesect. i hope. at least for keldeo probably. genesect i'm not sure is very popular, unfortunately, outside of the tumblr crowd. if the general public's opinion on genesect is favorable, then maybe
okay and then i tried to scroll down further in my screenshots for more asks and saw the wobbly will smith in a hospital bed Gimme a Hug, Man that i copied from the "i get a little bit genghis kanghis" post so that's it. to everyone who christmases: merry it. it is today. although it's basically over by now so! merry boxing day for tomorrow if i don't say anything tomorrow. but i probably will. now i'm gonna go queue up today's 'mons because i haven't done it yet today. see you all in a few weeks when those post

[A world in which they need each other] Prologue
A/N: This is the prologue to my new Alpharad x pChal Pokémon Gen 9 isekai fic. It's my first fic in eight years, and my first RPF in ten, so please go a bit easy, but I always enjoy constructive criticism.
age rating as of right now: T (more info in tags)
Prologue: A rare find
Jan was looking along the rainy Tokyo street. Despite night had fallen over an hour ago, it felt unnaturally bright. Neon lights and the shop signs illuminated the people walking by and left reflections on the wet sidewalks and awnings. While Jaiden had abandoned them after leaving the Shibuya Pokémon Lab to escape the rain, Jacob had heard of some “secret”, “only-insiders-know-about-this” spot for vintage and rare Pokémon artifacts. If Jan was honest, he just wanted to head back to the hotel and get some rest. It had been a long day and exciting day on his feet, and the exhaustion was catching up to him. 
Then there was also last night. Jacob, him and the gang had been out drinking very late, leaving him with little sleep and a hangover that had gotten better from spending time outside, but was still not helping his mood. There was also the small issue of what happened last night when they were drinking. After maybe not too many, but still plenty of drinks, Jacob and he had quite unabashedly made out in front of their friends and the other patrons of the bar they were at. It wasn’t that Jan cared that they kissed – he had kissed guys before, and being drunk and kissing a friend wasn’t usually something he worried about. When he woke up this morning though, the moment was still stuck in his head and made him feel confused, like there was a knot in his stomach. It was probably just a case of having to come to terms with whatever he was feeling, and he had successfully suppressed it most of the day, but being alone with Jacob now didn’t help with that.
“Jan, it’s over here!” Jacob called out as they approached, carrying a transparent plastic umbrella with the Gen 1 starters on it, their hair gleaming in the light of the neon signs that shone through it. “Coming.” Jan started to trudge along behind Jacob, when they stopped for a moment and moved the umbrella towards him, as to offer him to join him under it. A small smile flashed across Jan's lips, and he moved closer to Jacob, stepping into the small patch of dryness, now huddled against their coat. “Thanks.” The two of them continued towards the small store, nestled around the corner of a small alleyway, lit mostly by the shining lights of the main street and some dim, wall-mounted streetlights.
The small storefront looked like nothing special. A slightly yellowing backlit Japanese sign was mounted above large glass windows, adorned from the inside with slightly scuffed and out-of-date Pokémon posters and an otherwise seemingly arbitrary array collection of dusty figures, plushies, sealed trading cards, game boxes and countless mismatching licensed trinkets. Stepping into the small store, Jan and Jacob could see the theme of overstuffed clutter and dim lighting continuing on the inside. It was made up of two narrow aisles squeezed between a center row of shelves and the packed walls, connecting at the back. Some of the many objects haphazardly balanced on shelves, attached to the walls, or, in the case of some big statues in the back of the store, standing on the ground. Some items seemed like they could be valuable to a collector or a fan of some specific niche of the fandom. Nothing seeming as special or rare as the store’s reputation would have made them hope for jumped out at them. Jan felt a bit underwhelmed, and judging by the look on Jacob’s face, the feeling was mutual.
“See anything?” Jan asked, more out of politeness, though his tone betrayed his disappointment at the now seemingly needless detour. “Nope.” Jacob responded despondently. They wriggled through the tight space from one aisle to the other, at least wanting to give the shop every chance to salvage what so far looked like a disappointment. A few of the shelves hidden in the back corner came into view, but looked like mostly dilapidated consoles, handhelds and old games. Jan walked past, and, seeing that the remaining selves didn’t look much more promising, slowly began making his way towards the door. 
“Wait a moment.” Jan heard Jacob say. When he turned around, he saw them wrangling forth what looked like a box for a Switch game from behind some knick-knacks. Jan walked back, careful not to knock anything from the shelves, and looked at the box Jacob had in their hands. The box art resembled the Pokémon Scarlet & Violet box art, but featured both Miraidon and Koraidon – and two trainers, looking like your default boy and girl video game character. The title read Pokémon Scarlet, Violet – and YOU! Jan and Jacob both furrowed their eyebrows in confusion – this was not a Gen 9 game either of them had seen before, or, for that matter, a game they had seen before at all. Jacob flipped the box around, but the text was completely in Japanese, and too much for both of their limited tourist knowledge of the language. Turning it back around, it seemed like the title began to glimmer all of a sudden, for a second, it seemed like they could look into a world behind the legendary Pokémon and their trainers.
“Ah, a very special thing you have there.” Jan and Jacob jumped. The cashier, an elderly Japanese man, had quietly walked up to them from the cash register next to the door and was now looking over his shoulder at the box in Jacob's hand. “It’s a factory leak. Rumor is it's the only one.” Jan looked at Jacob skeptically, who looked back at him a bit confused from what they saw moments ago. After a second, Jacob shrugged. 
“Hey, if we play this on stream together, it'll be good content, no matter if it's a flop or the game to save Gen 9. Or just a creepy pasta.” They said, clearly wanting to make the best of a bad situation. 
“How would we play it together? One of us playing it while the other one is watching through Discord would hardly be fun, and I’m not sure that this is link compatible with the normal games.”
“I mean, we're both here. I could shoot Connor a message – he or someone he knows here is bound to have a streaming setup we could use for a few hours to try it out in person together.” Jacob said, now clearly sounding more excited.
Jan realized he wasn't getting out of this. “Okay, fine. But only if we nuzlocke it, Gen 9 is enough of a drudge as it is.”
“Of course, Mr. Nuzlocke King.”
They walked towards the cash register and stopped. Jacob searched the box for a price tag, not finding one. He looked up at the man behind the cash register, who, before they could ask anything, said, “Don't worry about payment – it found you for a reason, it is not my business to interfere.” Jacob did not know what exactly to make of this, so he nodded, confused, and thanked the man before quickly leaving the store. Jan followed him, still looking skeptical, but now at the shop owner. The guy looked like he, without a shadow of malice, sincerely believed in what he just said.
It had stopped raining, and the two started walking towards the nearest metro station. 
“That was… weird.” Jacob said, still sounding unsure of what had just transpired.
“Hmm.” 
“Are you still up for playing it?” Jacob asked in a tone somewhere between convincing, hopeful, and forlorn.
“You saw what I saw, right? How the box art changed all of a sudden?” Jan asked matter-of-factly.
“I'm sure that was just a trick of the light.”
“Sure.” Jan said, unconvinced. He could tell Jacob was excited to play this weird game. In the end, what really could go wrong. It was a Switch game. He didn’t believe in ghost stories, and the worst thing that could happen would probably be it being even more of a buggy mess than the normal Scarlet & Violet were on release. Doing something he was used to doing together with Jacob, like fooling around in some Pokémon game, might just get his mind off last night.
Jacob looked at him. He opened his mouth to say something, but didn’t know what to say. Jan was someone who’d speak his mind if he would rather not do something, but still, he seemed uneasy. Maybe it was just the disappointment of not finding something more interesting at the store. Perhaps he was just tired. It had been a long day on their feet after all.
They said their goodbyes at the metro stop, having to take trains in different directions. Before Jacob turned away to get his train, he flashed Jan a brief, apologetic smile. Jan just gave a slight nod before putting in his earbuds and entering the waiting train.
🟥🟪
When Jan arrived at his hotel room, he tossed aside his jacket, took off his shoes, and quickly got ready for bed. He drew the curtains, and checked his phone one more time before turning off the lights. Jacob had messaged him.
Jacob: Connor is off filming a Trash Taste special tomorrow, he said we can use his stream setup if we get there in the morning before he leaves.
Jan: When do we have to be there?
Jacob: Around 9
Jan: Okay
Jacob: Here’s the address: [Connor’s Address]
See you then 🙂
Jan: You too, gn
Jacob: Good night
He put his phone on the nightstand, turned off the lights, tucked into his blanket, and laid his weary head to rest. For a few seconds, he watched the lights from outside cast thin, long bands onto the wall and headboard above him. For a second, he thought about getting back up and closing them. He decided against it.
When he closed his eyes, he saw the lights shift to a bright white void in front of his mind’s eye. He could make out the shimmering outlines of an imposing yet familiar seeming creature. He seemed to be floating in front of it.
Through his mind, a deep voice boomed, “Follow my call, Jan. Come to me.”
At that moment, he felt a hand grasp his arm. He jerked his head to see whose hand it was, and saw the shimmering of another familiar, this time human, figure. Before he could make out who it was, he felt his stomach drop out and himself free-falling into darkness.
🟥🟪
8:57 AM. Jan arrived at Connor’s apartment building in a residential area of Tokyo. He hadn’t slept well, and was still a bit drowsy, despite the half-drunk konbini coffee. Checking the front door of the apartment complex, looking for a doorbell labeled Colquhoun, he quickly realized that he would have to enter an apartment number to use the intercom. He wrote Jacob a message, asking him if he had already arrived. He took a long swig, emptying the rest of the disposable cup and stuffed it in his jacket pocket – as with the rest of Tokyo, there was no trash can in sight.
Waiting, he checked his socials. Jacob had already hinted they might be streaming together on Twitter last night, but he had only announced it this morning, so, for most of his audience, it was going to be a surprise stream. Not to mention that for his European viewers, it was going to be a surprise stream in the middle of the night. Nonetheless, his post and made some good impressions. In the time collaborating with Jacob, he had definitely found out that they were good clickbait for any announcement or thumbnail.
“Hey Jan!” he heard an out-of-breath voice. When he raised his head, he saw Jacob quickly walking towards him. “I hope I haven’t kept you waiting for long.”
“Don’t worry, I just arrived” Jan replied.
Jacob beelined towards the intercom.
“Connor sent me his apartment number, give me a moment.” they said, pressing buttons on the keypad.
“Colquhoun?” a voice came through the tinny speaker.
“Hey Connor, it’s us, Jan and Jacob!” Jacob said, louder than was probably necessary for the intercom to pick up his voice.
“Great, I’m on the second storey.”
The door buzzed, and Jacob pushed it open, holding it open for Jan before they walked through it themself. They were greeted at the apartment door by a smiling Connor, who beckoned them to come in. 
“Just put your shoes here –” Connor pointed at a shoebox next to the door “– and you can hang your jackets here” he said, waving towards the hooks on the wall, before walking ahead into the apartment.
“Can I offer you two something to drink?” Connor asked.
“Just a water.” Jan replied.
“Me too, please.” Jacob responded in kind. “Have you two ever met before?” They asked.
“Not yet,” Connor replied, filling up two glasses, “but I’ve watched some of your videos, Jan, when I was practising and memorising strats for a Nuzlocke I did,” he finished, handing Jan and Jacob their glasses.
“Thanks.” Jan said, a bit surprised, but confident.
He showed them his streaming setup, helped plug in the Switch, and explained the inputs and OBS setup.
“That should be everything, if you need anything else, just message me. I might just take a while to answer between shoots. If you’re thirsty, help yourselves to some coffee or tea, there are also a few litres of pop around here.” Connor told them as he put on his jacket and picked up his backpack. “Have fun, guys!” he said as he walked out the door, before he could hear Jacob and Jan thank him.
They both spent some more time setting up the multistream to both their channels and getting the Switch ready. The Switch menu showed a game icon very similar to the box art, just that the trainers were replaced by two older people, a brunet and a bearded blond, still in the same pose, holding Pokéballs and all. Neither of them noticed, though, as they were busy getting ready.
“Ready?” Jacob asked, looking at Jan.
“Yup.”
“Then let’s go.” Jacob said, pressing the Start Streaming button.
After greeting chat and waiting for some viewers to come in, Jacob took the lead.
“So, as you all have probably seen by now, Jan and I are doing a stream together from Tokyo, special thanks to Connor for allowing us to use his setup.”
“Yup, and it’s definitely the most… JoJo streaming environment I’ve ever been in.” Jan added, deadpanning.
“So, anyway, we’re playing a – well, let’s say, a special game today –” Jacob announced, holding the box into the camera.
“– not to mention a game you picked up in a mysterious storefront in an alleyway.” Jan joked.
“I remember you being there too,” Jacob teased and continued, “so, from what we were told, this is some weird pre-release fusion of Scarlet & Violet.”
“Let’s hope pre-release isn’t code for ‘even more of a buggy mess than the actual game releases’” Jan quipped.
“And if they are, we have you here as our resident Pokémon know-it-all to get us through it.” Jacob said, lightheartedly, and switched scenes to the Switch screen capture, with chat and the face cam to the side and corner.
“Ready?” they asked.
A TTS message interrupted them. “pChalpha cheered x100: ‘Finally more Jan and Jacob collabs? Always up for some more of the favorite enemies to lovers arc! :pokemoPog:’”
“I guess so.” Jan replied, swallowing a bit and purposely ignoring the TTS.
Jacob selected the game icon, pressed A, and suddenly, everything went white. Both of them felt like they were ripped away through the back of their seats, away from earth, into an endless white void. Within seconds, both of them had passed out.
All the viewers saw was what looked like a flash bang going off in front of the face cam, two suddenly empty chairs, and the Switch not loading the game. Instead, the screen capture showed the console menu with an error box with Japanese text.
自分自身と互いを見つけるために、彼らは冒険の世界に旅立った。驚異の世界。お互いがお互いを必要としているのと同じくらい、二人を必要としている世界。
A/N: Thank you for reading! As I said, I'm happy for any constructive critisism. This chapter, as well as the next, will go up on AO3 as soon as I get an invite there for my new account!

human interaction!!
what's your favorite thing to write? what's your favorite part of the writing process? your least favorite?
what other fandoms, besides the ones you've written, would you want to write for in the future? If you were forced to write something about a fandom you knew very little about (let's say you get a summary of the plot and characters, plus whatever you might've absorbed via fandom posts from your mutuals), what fandom do you think you'd have the most luck with and why?
if you create OCs, what's your favorite OC that you've created? have you created any villain OCs? do you prefer Gen fics or romantic fics (both to read and to write)? who's your favorite comfort character? who's a character that probably shouldn't be comforting, but is anyway? who's a character that other people seem to love, but you just don't get the hype?
I hope this helps a little!! I'm always down to chat and trade asks!
20 questions 🤣🤣🤣 ok:
1) my favorite thing to write is also my favorite thing to read! Hurt/Comfort!!!!!
2) Most favorite part - Daydreaming about the characters/storyline while pretending to be mentally present at work!
3) Least favorite part - Making the words go 😢
4) I usually write what I know best at any moment - I've been eyeing some of the art/fic in the FNAF fandom lately but just kinda dipping my hands in, not really ready to dive in. I just love my Sanders Boys, ya know?
5) I think I could BS something from one of the classic animes, like Death Note or Naruto. I did watch Ouran Highschool Host Club and a few other sillier animes but my fandom experiences with those ended at looking at fanart. ((Wait, can Pokemon count? Can I do Pokemon? I know some Pokemon 👀👀👀))
6) my OC's are my DND characters and by far my favorite is Ink of Dreams, my cat-person thief 😍😍. Also Thistle, who isn't really an OC so much as my OC's pet 😅😅😅 If anything I guess HE would be my "favorite" because I talk about him all the time and he's in three dnd campaigns and I had a plushie made and I'm trying to have a movable puppet made...
7) RN I have a villain OC for a WIP I'm working on (read: poking with a stick like a dead animal) and I do enjoy writing her very much. She is an agent of chaos and I hate her so much, it's great 💜 I don't have a lot of experience doing the just straight up ridiculously depraved, but writing her is also giving me practice for writing future LRH adjacent fics involving Gabriel 👀👀👀
8) uuuuhhhhhh I like cuddles 😅😅😅😅 I'm fine with both, just not big on smut. I think I'm a little bit romantically starved tbh because sometimes I pull up a comfort fic that I know is gonna make me cry because I just kinda *need* to cry if that makes sense? I'm asexual and finding a romantic partner is hard 🥲 But anyway yeah I'm fine with both! RN I'm on a baby fic kick so send me babies 💜💜
9) My current comfort character is Patton from Sanders Sides, and no one is surprised. 😅 I just vibe with him a lot because in also a very emotionally-open and emotionally-invested person, I tend to be a caretaker and I like to be prepared in case someone around me needs help. And RN with fandom drama especially, I just feel connected with Patton. I also experienced a period of my life where I tried to help but made some mistakes and then was demonized and called an abuser, manipulative, gaslighter, horrible person and then I found out I was autistic so the things I was doing (like leaving a party to sit outside and decompress when I was overwhelmed and crying) weren't as common-sense and understood as I thought (aka said behavior was called me going off and crying to isolate people and make them come take care of me) ANYWAY. It's kinda funny because I've always bounced between Patton and Virgil for TS; it was mostly Virgil at first and then I had a gap where Good Omens took over, and then it was back to TS but now more vibing with Patton
10) I can't really think of a comfort character that would be considered "not good" besides like. The characters I call my "Anime Boyfriends", Jake English and Dirk Strider from Homestuck, but that's more because like,,, the creator of Homestuck kinda uses a *lot* of slurs,,,, but also I only read like 1/4 of the whole comic,,,, and I go off of fanon interpretations,,,, from ask blogs c2012,,, so.........
11) I do not understand the obsession with Janus and Remus. I'm gonna admit - I don't like them in canon. At all. I am ok with most fanon interpretations, but I just don't like them. I like the "Core Four" (Logan, Virgil, Patton, Roman) and that's it. And I do NOT look forward to the "orange side". And to be 100%, I get frustrated because I want to read poly fic of just the core four and so many people are tossing Janus and Remus in the mix and I just want to find the ones that don't and it takes *forever* to filter out all of the different variants of ships. 🥲 obv I'm not going to tell anyone else to stop enjoying their ships and characters, but I'm not gonna go searching for the stuff that I don't enjoy, either.
Thank you for the ask friend!! 💜💜 it's very much appreciated lol, and a lot of your questions really made me think 😅😅

Day 9 of All of Arda is Autistic:
Prompt: Vocal stims / distractions
Rating: Gen
Celebnínim is my OC for one of Elladan’s daughters and Elneldor one of my OC for Elrohir’s sons. Liló and Tinwë belong to @deadqueernoldor and are from different fics (Liló is Maglor’s adopted daughter and can be found in the ‘Old Maggie Took’ series on AO3 and Tinwë is Caranthir’s twin sister in the ‘strength of our bonds’ series. She is autistic too.)
“Where are you Nínim?” Elneldor’s voice called, closer than before. “I know you are somewhere. Come one, it’s not fair!”
Celebnínim pressed her hands firmly to her mouth, trying not no hum or giggle. She had to win the hide-and-seek! Her cousin walked away and the Elfling relaxed in her hiding spot, flopping on her back in the small space under the bush. There was a bumblebee buzzing loudly and, as Celebnínim watched it, she started buzzing along. The sound made her chest vibrate in a very comfortable way, and she buzzed louder, still following the bumblebee with her eyes. Was is as fluffy to pet as it looked? It landed on one of the blue flowers on the bush and she crawled half out of the hiding spot to watch it closer, it’s fuzzy behind the only part emerging from the flower. It was really, really cute. Maybe cousin Liló would make her a bumblebee plushie? She made the fluffiest bees and it wasn’t very different.
Lost in her contemplation, the Elfling noticed too late the shadow looming over her, and she abruptly stopped buzzing. “Aunt Tinwë?” she squeaked, ready to crawl back under the bush. Aunt Tinwë was scary, Celebnínim found. And she was always mean to Erestor so Nínim didn’t speak to her.
But Aunt Tinwë only sat down on the grass and started to draw the bumblebee on a sketchbook she had in her pocket. Celebnínim relaxed and started buzzing happily again, watching intently between Aunt Tinwë and the busy bumblebee. The insect was still half inside the flower, and Nínim wondered if it was stuck or just very hungry. And what did it taste, the inside of a flower?
But the Elfling’s contemplation was troubled once more when Aunt Tinwë started making a buzzing sound too. Celebnínim startled, making the bumblebee fly away, and she glared at her aunt. “That’s my happy sound!” she chided sternly. Aunt Tinwë looked up from her drawing and smiled, and she looked less scary with a smile and charcoal all over her hands from drawing.
“It makes me happy too, especially when we are buzzing together,” she said, and Nínim felt less upset. She nodded firmly twice.
“Okay, you can buzz too, but you have to come to me so we buzz together! You can’t buzz alone.”
Aunt Tinwë’s smile widened and she patted Celebnínim’s shoulder twice. It meant okay, in their super secret silent language. Only Ellalwen knew it too. Suddenly, Nínim jumped on her feet, almost knocking her head on the branches of the bush. She had leaves and grass all over her dress. “I won the hide-and-seek!” she squealed excitedly, clapping her hands. “Elneldor hasn’t found me!”
“Well done, little one!” Aunt Tinwë cheered. She then ripped the page with the drawing of the bumblebee and handed it to Nínim. “Here is your prize for winning! Now, fly away and go brag to your cousin, he needs it.” she said.
Celebnínim carefully folded the paper and put it in her pocket before squeezing Aunt Tinwë’s hand (it meant thank you) and skipping away, buzzing loudly. She had won the hide-and-seek!
I post this ficlet a day earlier for @deadqueernoldor who had a bad day. And here’s the link to a giganormous post with more of Tinwë and the Elflings: https://www.tumblr.com/camille-lachenille/713398273285799936/there-is-a-question-eating-at-my-mind-how-would
Happy Easter to the people who celebrate! Happy Passover to the people who celebrate! And happy weekend for everyone else!

95. favorite app on your phone?
96. desktop background?
HELL YEAHHHHHH ASK GAME ╰(*°▽°*)╯
1. Coffee mugs, teacups, wine glasses, water bottles, or soda cans?
I love a good coffee mug, especially one with a fun little design on it.
5. Do you prefer to drink soda from soda cans, soda bottles, plastic cups or glass cups?
Plastic cup. I’ll usually buy them in soda cans and pour them into a plastic cup because I hate drinking from the cans. I’ve never figured out how the fuck to do that hfkafhakjfhsahjf.
16. Most comfortable position to sit in?
Cross-legged and hunched over my computer like a gremlin
23. Strange habits?
Sometimes I drink lemonade with a spoon. As if it’s soup or something
I avoid the number 9 if possible. For example, I’ll refuse to sit in the ninth seat of a movie theater. It’s silly and superstitious, but I can’t help it
I avoid saying certain words linked to phobias of mine
24. Favorite crystal?
Ametrine
33. Most used phrase in your phone?
How do you tell that???? I have no idea lol. Probably just “Ok"
40. Weirdest thing to ever happen at your school?
Weirdest thing to ever happen at my school was that I never went to school lol. I’ve done online schooling my entire life (up until college) due to medical issues and severe anxiety
48. if you were a fruit, what kind would you be?
Maybe a peach? Because I’m soft and sweet and fuzzy like a peach. Also because I write smut and people think peaches look like butts. Or maybe a blackberry. It’s a very goth berry imo
49. What saying or quote do you live by?
“Common things being common…” It’s a medical phrase that generally makes the case that less severe things are far more common than major deadly things. I.e., the pain in your abdomen is probably your period, not appendicitis; the back pain is probably just your chronic back issues acting up again, not a sign of kidney failure. That sort of thing. As someone with the unfortunate combination of OCD, germaphobia, extreme medical anxiety, and chronic pain and medical issues, it’s a really helpful phrase to remember.
61. Favorite line you heard from a book/movie/tv show/etc.?
“The only thing that’s impossible is impossibility!” – Phineas Flynn from Phineas and Ferb. It’s a quote that inspired me a lot when I was younger.
67. Good luck charms?
An Irish pendant from my Grandmother, my hippo plushie, the number 13, other things I’m forgetting….
70. Left or right handed?
Right-handed
76. What’s your favorite potato food (i.e. tater tots, baked potatoes, fries, chips, etc.)?
French fries for sure
85. Fairy tales or mythology?
Oooooo tough one. I’d have to say mythology! I love learning about the beliefs and traditions of different cultures, and it’s something I love to develop in my own original stories as well.
95. Favorite app on your phone?
The Notes app and music app are my besties
96. Desktop background?
Concept art of Kopaka from Bionicle Gen. 2 (under the cut)

top ten Pokémon? your fav games?
!!!!!!!!
So most of my favorite Pokémon are just my favorite because of them being the Pokémon of my ocs, or in one case, my father when I was 9-10. I was. A weird kid.
10: Lugia. My father. Me and a friend ran around the playground yelling lugia’s song but distorted, because shadow Lugia was attacking, and then my friend made shadow Lugia say, in his dying moments, that he was my father. Actually I’m wheezing because I had forgotten that until this moment what on earth.
9: Grovyle. I hate putting him this low, I had a crush on mystery dungeon grovyle- and yes pmd is why grovyle is here. When young me found out about celebi being in love with grovyle… listen he’s a thief but actually a hero and he’s doing it along because aaaaaaaaaaHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Gently holds.
8: blaziken. My first starter was torchic and blaziken is the fully evolved form. His name was Emma. I. Didn’t understand the gender markers.
7: mew. Tiny psychic cat my beloved. I would replay the mew windmill scene over and over again.
6: wyrdeer. My lovely girl, Nilla. She’s one of my character’s main Pokémon even though she wasn’t his starter, and she’s basically his service pokemon.
5: Mewtwo. I feel really bad about putting him this low, considering mewtwo was like, my first oc’s *thing*. She had a mewtwo tail, she had known the clones, had been best friends with Amber before Amber died, she was connected to mewtwo, my old username on everything was crystal(redacted)ketchum2 (redacted because her middle name is a friend’s deadname). But. I don’t like mewtwo as much as I used to?
4: Sneasel. His name is crime. He has a knife. Enough said. (He’s one of Fox’s Pokémon and my favorite to write, ever.)
3: Silvally my friend Silvally. Syl. Bright’s closest partner. What is it with characters of mine having a water type starter and then a partner that’s a second starter that evolves in a weird way?
2: Primarina, Pip, my beloved. Bright’s starter. I chose popplio for sun and moon because everyone hated on it when it was revealed and Trickywi made a song about it. I never regretted it. Primarina is amazing.
1: Oshawott. There is a life sized Oshawott Pokémon plushie and I keep going back to read the reviews. It was my starter in gen five and then I chose it in legends arceus, and I love Oshawott.
Favorite games. Hmm. The first one I played was Ruby. I loved soul silver and my shiny suicune. I probably put the most hours into sun moon ultra sun and ultra moon, if you combine them. And legends arceus is amazing. Plus the mystery dungeon games, and ranger guardian signs. Ukelele pichu my adored

i get that i'm probably in the minority at this point, but as someone who grew up with pokemon i have Negative Opinions of the later generations, in terms of pokemon design that is. i do think that after a while, they simplified their art style a lot in order to make more easily marketable guys, easier to make plushies and toys of i guess. but i also think that a lot of their designs are just getting Stupid, and they're (understandably) running out of ideas when they're expected to make 50+ guys every generation every few years for 20+ years straight. i genuinely feel like early on, it started off as "woah... what if we made THIS THING that i GENUINELY THINK IS COOL....", and it just happened to get absurdly popular because hey, it was genuinely cool in a lot of cases. meanwhile i think that when pokemon stopped being the passion project of a few goons doing what they loved and became A Massive Multimedia Franchise that has to Appeal To Everyone, i feel like a lot of it lost its charm, y'know? for me, i think designs and the style were really solid up until gen 4, and even with gen 4 i feel like most of the guys were pretty alright, though there's definitely a lot more misses in gen 4 than there were in 3 (which, to be fair, i consider gens 2-3 to have the most insane batting ratio throughout the series, even gen 1 has more stinkers than most dorks like me would generally admit).
i do think that things got Actually Bad in terms of design with gen 5, though. though with that being said, i also feel like gen 5 gets a lot more hate than it deserves, and it's frankly probably the least shit in terms of design of what i'd consider to be Late Gen. i do like emolga, a whole lot. but, i'd say that virtually all of gen 5's guys, with very few exceptions, Fuckign Sucked. same with gen 6, i will say that i like sylveon, but frankly i feel like it'd be harder to fuck up an eveelution than it would to make a good one. i do, however, kinda think that fairy type is lame, at least insofar as how i loved my gardevoir being a pure psychic. but alas, it's not like i'm gonna play a mainline game past gen 4 at this point anyways. again, in gen 6, we see like, one good guy, and a whole bunch of shit. though i will say that the worst of gen 5 is like, Offensively Bad, while the worst of gen 6 is just kinda fucking bland. from then on, though? i genuinely can't think of a single guy from gens 7-9 that actually fucking appeal to me. i did this little thing where you pick your favorite guys from each gen from each type, and it was like... wow, all of these past a certain point Fuckign Suck.
now, i don't think that this is the end of the world, frankly, i feel like it's only natural for a grown ass man to not find kid shit appealing. but, that being said, even when i was An Actual Kid who was growing up on the tail end of gen 4 and the beginning of gen 5, even back then i had negative opinions of whatever the fuck was going on with gen 5, though i didn't really have the language to express it in a meaningful way. and i mean like An Actual kid to say like, i was literally 9. but i also grew up on the older gens before that, though i will admit that gens 1-3 tend to run pretty indistinctly for me in some ways, since i was very young and also the first pokemon game i could call my own was mystery dungeon: red rescue team, which more or less presented the first 3 gens of guys as One Whole Group, which was pretty easy back then and would be significantly harder to pull off with the sheer Dissonance between early gen and late gen shit
now, i'm gonna do some pre-emptive defense of myself to Late Gen Bootlickers and say which early gen guys i genuinely dislike, and say which late gen guys i genuinely like, as a little bit to balance out the bashing that i've done: i think tangela's a bit shit. same with muk/grimer. i think voltorb only really works as a surprise encounter the first time and as a pokemon it's kinda meh. drowzee and hypno are Gross & Grody and should be cut, frankly, though this may just be me as someone whose spent too much damn time on the internet. same with lickitung and mr mime, frankly. unown is stupid. bullshit alphabet ass waste of a dex space. volbeat and illumise are just kinda eh. i don't think if they were never designed, the world would be an appreciably different place.
i like the purrloin line. pidove is cute. scolipede is genuinely kinda cool. i love sandile. minncino is cute. emolga is probably my favorite guy from gen 5 onwards, and frankly is one of my favorite guys out of the whole series. dedenne is kinda cute. i like tepig and litten (but not what they evolve into). the rockruff line is good. mimikyu is genuinely kinda clever and also pretty cute. yamper and boltund (especially boltund) are pretty cute. uhhh, that's all i can really think of
(gen 4 was left out of this entirely because i consider it to be a very transitory kinda deal, if i said every guy i liked and didn't like from gen 4 both of these lists would be at least twice as long as they are, since i think in terms of design, it's probably the most mixed in terms of both good and bad designs, albeit with a decent lean towards good)
now, do i hate pokemon? can't say i do, hate is a strong word, and while strong is the best thing a thing can be, i can't bring myself to feel that strongly about pokemon as it exists. pokemon as it was, though? i genuinely love, even today. i still semi regularly replay the first PMD game, sometimes i choose one of the gens from 1-4 to play through (though i've never gotten that far into gen 4 while i've beaten the first 3, some multiple times). i think what i'm trying to get at here, is that pokemon can be great, but i genuinely feel as though it's gotten appreciably worse in recent years, and i feel as though a pretty significant part of that for me is the character design. i think this might matter a bit more to me than the average person? and i almost certainly have different sensibilities than a fair amount of people. but i genuinely find it hard to enjoy a piece of media if i don't like the character designs, especially if i find the designs stupid. part of why i hate a lot of post warhammer40k fantasy and scifi so unappealing is that i think the character designs are Genuinely Dogshit. pauldrons big enough to work double duty as horse blinders, dipshit thick swords that probably couldn't cut a stick of butter, much less be used in actual combat, that sorta shit. the same goes for me and pokemon, i think. like, wow, that's just a fucking pair of keys. it's a fucking apple. that is literally just a fucking tumbleweed. terrible, though the ones i'm thinking of are just the Particularly Egregious ones, i will say that on a very fundamental level, i find a lot of the "normal" designs deeply unappealing. a lot of them illicit the same response to my brain as looking at an unethically bred animal, like a pug. like damn dude, you should NOT exist, you're a testament to the technological and ecological hubris of mankind.
which isn't to say that if i were Actually There In Real, i wouldn't feel a little different about it. like a pug in real life, i still go to pet it because it's a living being with love in its heart, even if it was bred into a little freak of nature, that's not their fault, y'know? poor little guy, have a treat. i feel like if i met the little bread dog creature i'd be a bit disconcerted, but i'd still be nice to it, y'know? some of them would absolutely be out of fear, though. personally, i'd rather not be chokeslammed by whatever furrybait dude that i'm around, y'know?

Follow/interact/message if you’re a little or a CG looking for friends ! 💕 I wanna make lgbt little and CG friends. It’s so lonely out here (´°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥ω°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥`) especially being a little without a CG/Partner.
My blog is SFW ~ but don’t trust visiting people I reblog from. Not everyone I reblog from has a SFW blog.
I’m 25 and my little ages are 4-9 💕
My favourite colour in little space is: pink and blue.
My favourite snack is: berries or steam buns
My favourite treat is: any vegan candy.
I love soy milk !
My favourite toy is: my jack skellington toy and my dolls.
My favourite plushies: Finn the human and Fernando, my jiant octopus ~ oh and how could I forget, prince sugar hooves.. he’s very very important to me.
Favourite movies: the jungle book, aristo cats, Stewart little, next gen.. anything animated that’s ghoulish/spoopy
Favourite cartoons: adventure time, ruby gloom, bee and puppy cat.
I like to be silly, wear cat ears, go for adventures, watch movies and cartoons ! I like to colour in and eat snack foods when I have no caregiver and can’t cook. my favourite little activity is going to any playground or playing PlayStation . I don’t ‘play’ with my toys but I collect them.. I just started collecting monster high dolls. I can’t sleep without my plushies. Travelling without my favourite adventure time plushy/backpack can be a nightmare when I regress. I’ve gotten into such habit of bringing him with me that I even bring him when I’m not regressing. My other prized item is my Blankie 🥺 if there’s any way to tell that I need nap time it’s when I have Blankie with me..
I’ve gone by many pet names.. none that are recent, but I’m just a sucker for pet names in general... you could call me anything... like, Pickle or shrimp or anything random and my heart would melt... my favourites are kitten, bunny, and princess :3
So yeah, that’s a bit about me and I hope to make some nice friends n.n
Hope you have a nice day✨💜✨

🛍 do you own any pokémon merch?
💭 is there a pokémon you will always try to put on your team?
🎵 which game has the best soundtrack?
Thank you for including the questions cause I forgot what they were lmao
🛍 Yes! Lots of plushies and some figurines, a case for my old DS and a case for my switch, some shirts. Funny thing is a lot of these are from my mom. She travels pretty often and every time she sees something Pokemon related she tells me about it and asks if I want it. Not to randomly get sentimental when no one asked for it lol but I've always found it so sweet that she does this. Like she doesn't know anything about Pokemon but whenever she sees it she thinks of me and idk it's nice
💭 I always have to have Impidimp and Hatenna in swsh cause those lines are my all time faves. If either or both of them are in gen 9 I'll want to have them too. Also I can already tell that every time I play Moon it will be a must to have a female midnight Lycanroc named Roxy lmao, but I don't think I'll do that in every game that midnight Lycanroc is available
🎵 hmmm if we're talking overall consistent quality, I'd say Black/White(2). But a lot of my favorite tracks come from swsh

Hello! If you’re still doing matchups, please do a pjo one for me
I’m am entj, bi, nb. Im 5’7 with long wavy red hair. I like fashion, watch me turn into your Pinterest gf & your tiktok bf at once bc gender. I do divination, paint, am in a band and write. Also I make plushies for fun. Heard I'm intimidating. I try to be nice and polite though. Sure I can and will fairly beat you up, that happens, but I swear I'm not unfriendly. I’m social, stubborn, optimistic, bossy, vain, confident and altruistic. Sort of a mom friend/leader? And empathetic though idk where that came from since Im a narc. I'm also rly ambitious, I like the responsibility and power equally. Not just for the funsies, taking care of others makes me gen happy too. Esp kids, they r lovely. Would hate to be taken care of though, I prefer to get space if I'm unwell. If we r dating you can go off do ur duties, we can eat dinner together or train that's enough quality time. Speaking of my partner - I prefer equally (or more) driven people, they motivate me & we can push each other further. They can get a bit unhinged as a treat. Also someone who can make me smile sometimes. Idc how, be rude and unpleasant for all I care, as long as it's amusing. I can be nice for both lol. My type Is people/characters that were made to be disliked.When I confessed to a guy and my entire friend group was like stop,, hope he doesn't feel the same way please don't get together. Im a Percy (hp) apologist and my favourite character from Luca was Ercole which says a lot. I like to be affectionate. Giving gifts is a must even if I'm broke. My fav God is Apollo but I think my mom would be Venus?

Hi love!
TYSM for your ask, every single one brightens my day.
Anyways, quick story before we get into your matchup. So I was lying awake at like, 3am, thinking about your ask, and I couldn't figure it out! I went to go get a drink of water and that's when it came to me. I think you'd be perfect with Clarisse La Rue!
Tumblr media
★ I headcanon she's bi or pan, so she's very intrigued by your *gendermess* [please excuse me if that's not the right term]
★ I mean, she's a daughter of Ares... sooo... yeah, she's pretty driven
★ EVEN ARES AND APHRODITE ARE A COUPLE, WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT ME TO SAYYYYYYY
★ The entire camp loves you when get along, but if you fight, they're all hiding in Bunker 9
★ She won't take care of you, but secretly loves to be fussed over
★ Also, Clarisse is a bit softer when it's just you two, but she projects a very tough exterior
Anyways, hope you enjoy love!
