#Professor sada x reader

[microwave-core]

A Handful of Headcanons

These are, uh, kinda unhinged.

I love Nemona with my whole heart and soul, but I almost always write her (and you, dear reader) as being insanely oblivious because I just can't help myself. Every time I saw her in my Scarlet playthrough all I could think was “You wanna kiss me so bad you look stupid” because that is exactly what she’s like.

Her friends have been telling her for the past Arceus knows how long about her crush, but she never understood where they were coming from. Her obliviousness is completely impenetrable, it’s insane. They’re all pulling their hair out by her inability to recognize her own damn feelings.

Like, it’s to the point that her friends think she’s worried about people’s reaction to her being gay. Penny will casually tell Nemona that everyone was fine with her being gay or bi or whatever but Nemona’s just genuinely a dumbass when it comes to romantic feelings. 

(It’s funny, really, because anyone that would have a problem with her sexuality would never voice it lest they get their ass kicked but I digress.)

But when she realizes it? It’s fucking over. Her entire perspective has changed and she is now a new person. She now spends her nights staring at the ceiling plagued by thoughts of you. She could never fall asleep when thinking about holding your soft hand, or playing with your hair, or feeling your lips against her own. Occasionally, her thoughts become unsavory, and it never fails to make her feel like a complete creep because she shouldn’t be thinking of you like that.

When around you, she manages to act pretty normal. She’s too distracted by you to be overthinking her own feelings. The most she’ll do is just… look at you, but kinda intensely.

She’s just in so much awe at your existence, how you could look so beautiful, so elegant, just sitting there. Your every action sets her heart ablaze. Please give her affection, she deserves it even if she can be inexplicably stupid at times.

Cynthia would be such a wife-guy, it’s unreal. I have given this much thought. Sometimes I think about those alignment chart memes and everytime I do I think about the champions in regards to how they would treat their partner and, without fail, Cynthia and Leon fall into the wife-guy section and I will not elaborate further (that is a lie I will elaborate if asked). 

People across the world look up to Cynthia as a pillar of strength, as a serious badass who could curb stomp you with a single look. These people have no idea how much of a nerd she is, but they sure as hell know how much she loves her wife. 

Every interview she’s ever in, she will bring you up. No matter how much you might beg or plead her to, to avoid the embarrassment of her unabashed declarations of love, she will not stop. She cannot stop herself even if she wanted to.

She is the definition of relationship goals. All of her interviews have comments like “get you a girl who will talk about you like how Champion Cynthia talks about her wife” under them. 

And she absolutely adores your embarrassed reaction to them, too. You just look so adorable when you’re flustered. Don’t worry, she won’t tease you that much, that’s not really her style. She’ll always make it up with hugs and kisses and chocolate and anything else your heart may desire. She loves you more than anything else, after all.

Geeta is lowkey a sugar mommy, no matter what. Certified Girlboss™ over here is so busy, which she’s not inherently against as a workaholic, but it does prevent her from seeing you.

And so whenever she does get time for you, she will spoil you. Gift giving is her way of showing affection, at least when it comes to you. She’s practically made of money, please spend as much as you want. It’s her treat and you deserve it. Don’t even think about pulling out your purse or wallet, she will not let you pay. 

During quiet moments in her day, she’ll pull up a store on her phone and scroll until she finds something you’d like. She’ll be scrolling through fancy-smancy stores during an important meeting or when talking to someone like Nemona or Clavell because she just thought of the most darling thing to get you and she needs to find something suitable this instant. And she’s not slacking off or not paying attention, either, she knows exactly what is being said around her.

She’s also shameless. On more than one occasion, someone’s seen her looking for fancy, incredibly expensive lingerie. They’re incredibly embarrassed about it, but Geeta doesn’t care. She is in no way flustered or worried, just amused by their reaction.

If you don’t live together, she’ll totally send packages to your house or apartment. She’ll usually tell you, but sometimes she just doesn’t and suddenly you're opening your door in the morning only to be greeted by several packages. 

Not so much of a headcanon as much as it is a concept, but Courtney and Shelly pining for the same person. That’s it, that is the thought,

These two are their own brands of unhinged, and they would absolutely rip the other to shreds if it meant winning your heart. Courtney is just batshit insane. She’s feral. She’s completely unhinged and would go to any lengths necessary to get you by her side, no matter how much she has to dirty her hands to do so.

Shelly is also unhinged, but she’s far more calculated. She’s part of the brains behind Team Aqua, and so she’s not going to take action without considering all her possibilities first. She’ll go to the same lengths Courntey will go to, but she'll consider all her actions before making a commitment.

There is very little you can even do in this scenario. They would choke each other out with their bare hands if it meant having you. Don’t think this can end in dating both, they would never tolerate the other. They’re just going to continuously fight each other, try to one up each other, until one of them snaps. 

Drasna is severely slept on. I don’t even have a grand vision to put here. There is no idea, there is no headcanon, and there is no scenario. All you get is the concept of Drasna.

Just like… look at her. She borders on milf and gilf, she is decorated in dragon bones, she is sweet and kind and could kick your ass. She is gentle and loving but changes into cold and savage when in the midst of battle. 

She could curb stomp your ass any day of the week, and you (by which I mean me) would thank her. Not that she ever would. She cares about you too much! If you did battle her, she would attempt to go a bit easier on you, toning down the intensity a bit, but it slips out every now and then.

Also, do you think she’d have fangs? That’s how all the dragon tamers are in my head, so it’s not really Drasna specific. Actually, don’t answer that, she totally does because it’s my fanfic and I get to make the rules.

Anyways, Drasna would totally live in a cute little cottage. She’s from Celestic Town (apparently), so she likely prefers a quieter, humbler lifestyle. That is to say, you get to live with her in a cute little house that’s surrounded by nature and is also covered in dragons. You get to unwind at the end of the day by sitting in your cute little garden with her, and isn’t that just the dream?

…. How do we feel about gilfs? Like, in general. Milfs are pretty unanimous, I think. We all love a hot mom, but what about hot grandmas? I say that like the Pokemon grandmas are hot which I don’t think they are (except Cogita, obviously) but like… is there a consensus on this?

I don’t know man, when I look at Agatha and Bertha and Opal it’s just like… that’s a grandma. She’d bake you cookies and ask you about school or work. Agatha has an implicit risk, as you will be jumpscared by her ghosts. She’s also a little bitter and would totally just bitch about the people that get on her nerves. She’s old, she doesn’t care about anything anymore.

Bertha is the kind grandma who always asks if you want to help her make the cookies (she will not be offended if you decline). She’ll ask how your life is and will give you so much useful advice. She’ll also tell stories from her youth, and she looks so happy when she does it. She’s just nice, that's all I have to say.

Opal. Oh Opal. This specimen already has the cookies baked when you show up at her door unannounced. She knew you would be coming. Come sit down and complain about your life. She wants all of the gossip. Tell her everything, especially about your love life. Be careful about what you tell her, though, because she will not hold back when giving you her opinion.

Sorry I couldn't help myself. I had to write this out. I’ll go back to the regular headcanons.

Regular is a strong word. I desire Sada carnally. She is broken and I can fix her, okay? I have thought about this a lot, and I would subject you to all of those thoughts in incredible detail if I was strong enough to truly capture her image.

Real talk though. Sada is hesitant to fall in love again. She’s gone through a messy divorce before, and doesn't want to go through that kind of thing ever again. But she couldn’t help but fall in love with you, which leads to one of two things happening.

There’s the realistic option, that her love for you will make her work even harder towards finding paradise, which basically just leads to how the game plays out. She spends more and more time in the crater until she decides to move into it and eventually gets got by Koraidon, but you don’t know that. It would suck, but you would not be totally alone as you would have Arven there, going through the same thing. At the very least, he’ll turn out slightly better (until he has to tell you that Sada’s been dead for Arceus knows how long). 

But that’s sad, so I present to you the ideal option, that her love for you makes her realize how damaging her workaholic nature has been. She’ll be able to take a step back from her work, from the time machine and Area Zero, and just be able to live in the moment with you and Arven, like a normal family. She starts working as a regular professor. Hell, she might even start teaching at Naranja, where she’ll get to tease Arven everyday.

Anyways, regardless of what happens you get to be Arven’s stepmom, and that makes it worth it because he deserves a good parental figure in his life. I love him, he is my son, and he deserves the world.

Speaking of milfs: Lusamine. Hear me out. Technically, there are three types of Lusamine. There’s Sun and Moon Lusamine who is completely unhinged and selfish and will stop at nothing to get her way. There’s Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon Lusamine who is also slightly less unhinged and will stop at nothing to get her way, but she’s doing it for a greater cause (although it’s still kinda selfish but sometimes it’s the thought that counts). Then there's the anime Lusamine, who is actually pretty normal. Not unhinged or feral or incredibly selfish, just a mother trying her best for her two kids. 

All three of them are near and dear to my heart, but, to me, Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon Lusamine reigns supreme. She’s the best of the other two, where she’s both unhinged and trying to be a good mom (after the Ultra Necrozma business goes down, anyways).

When she becomes more adjusted, not worrying about saving Alola from an unworldly entity, she’s incredibly supportive, both to you and to her kids. Speaking of kids, if you don’t support Lillie and Gladion with your whole heart, she will cut you off. Her family is important to her, especially after losing Mohn.

Writing this, I realize that I might just be invested in giving these kids better lives, but whatever. Lillie will open up to you pretty quickly. She wants to do all kinds of mother-daughter activities. Please just spend time with her, she will love you forever. Gladion takes a bit longer, but he’ll cave to your kindness in time. He won’t admit it, though, he has an edgy persona to upkeep.

Or maybe you're into an evil bitch and you want selfish and crazy Lusamine, which is also understandable. She’ll do anything for you, and I mean anything. She would be pretty controlling though, and she might love the Ultra Beasts more than you, but that’s the price you’ve gotta pay if you want her unhinged.

Oh and also, please don’t look into Ultra Wormholes or Ultra Beasts. No matter what version of Lusamine you’re into, just don’t. Lusamine would never recover if you disappeared like Mohn did.

I’ll end this with Marnie, because I like her. She’s kinda quiet and maybe even a little shy, but she’s adorable and loves you with her whole heart and soul. Her quiet nature, though, is lost when you start doing… basically anything. Whether you’re battling or studying, she’ll be your number one cheerleader.

When you’re battling other people, she’ll be hyping up your every move. You're her girlfriend, you're obviously up to snuff, and she’ll remind you of that fact constantly. She’ll even bring in Team Yell to help out. She wants the entirety of Galar to know how strong you are. 

But she’ll cheer you on quietly, too. When she senses you're overworked or stressed, she’ll be bringing you blankets and hot tea before you can even complain about your problems. And when you’re settled in, she’ll bring you curry and huddle into your side. She’ll even get Morpeko to cuddle up to you. Feel special, Morpeko won’t even do that to Marnie, and she would complain if it wasn’t making you feel better.

If you’re battling against her, she won’t openly cheer you on like normal. She’s a gym leader, she can’t just go throwing a match because she loves you! But she’ll compliment your strategy when you're doing well. Team Yell won’t be cheering for you, though. 

Also, Piers would be totally chill with you. He couldn’t be intimidating even if he tried, he is a literal twig. He just wants his sister to be happy and safe, and mans knows you would never do anything to hurt her. Besides, someone has to tell you Marnie’s embarrassing childhood stories and baby photos.

SFW Sada: My Eye

The warm breeze blowing through your hair was calming as you sighed, relaxing on the edge of a cliff. You could hear shuffling beside you, making you turn over to look at Sada sitting down next to you. The woman paused, looking over at you for a moment before covering her smile behind her hand.

"You know you have something in your eye." She commented and you paused, not having realized it. Surely you would've felt it, right?

"There's something in my eye? Can you get it for me?" You asked, leaning closer. Then you felt her hand cupping your cheek and quickly pulling you closer. Your breath catches in your throat at the close proximity of your bodies.

Sada swept a finger under your eye before bringing you close enough for her to give you a peck on your nose, "My mistake, must've been a trick of the light." She said and you swore you were swooning.

"You're horrible." You said, clearly pouting at the woman.

"I'm aware."

Arven x Reader: Painful Loss

If you have not gotten to The Great Crater of Paldea, skip this story to avoid any spoilers. You would think Professors Sada and Turo had left Arven behind when he was really little (until he first got Maschiff; now Mabostiff), but until the moment came that Arven knew the real truth; taking place in Area Zero.

You had met with whom you though were Professor Sada and Professor Turo, but it seems these two were both AI copies of the original professors. You were told the original professors died protecting Koraidon and Miraidon’s lives. You wondered if Arven should know why he hadn’t seen them in such a long time, but he was busy with fending off the paradox Pokémon outside the lab.

The two robots then initiated a battle with you, which was a breeze to you since you had your party Pokémon at stronger levels. You defeated them both, then Nemona, Arven and Penny entered. “(Y/N)!” Arven called out. “What’s this?!” Penny asked. “Did you already beat all the baddies without me?!” Nemona asked. Arven then looks over at the AI robotic copies of his mom and dad, took a few steps forward and asked demandingly, “Ok, out with it, both of you…who are you, really?!” You all watched the two robots as they were twitching funny. AI Sada said, “Th-thank you…for…everything… The time machine…has finally… They have…finally…been stopped…” “You’re really not…my parents, are you?” Arven asks. “Oh…,” AI Turo says, “Look…how big you’ve grown… So…p-proud of you…our…” As Arven listened, his expression changed into shock. Then AI Sada said, “….Sorry…you were alone s-so…long…Arve-” “M-Mom?! Dad?!”

The system had failed and the time machine detected a threat. That’s when the robots apologized before bringing out Koraidon and Miraidon. You let yours out, too, to battle them since the rest of your Poké Balls, along with Penny, Nemona and Arven’s, were locked.

When the two opposing legendaries were defeated, the robots had finally told the truth about Sada and Turo’s deaths to Arven before bidding farewell and disappearing into the eye. Arven felt heartbroken watching the robots of his own mother and father go; after hearing he was now an orphan. You looked at him; he had tears streaming from his eyes. You then placed a hand on his shoulder. “Arven…” you spoke calmly to him. Arven looks at you, then you wipe his tears away with your hand and tell him, “I’m so sorry about your mom and dad.” “Are you feeling okay, Arven?” Nemona asks. “Poor guy.” Penny said.

It was silent for a minute, but then Arven pulls you in for a hug and quietly cries in your shoulder. You rubbed his back as he cried. That’s when Nemona and Penny decided to join in to comfort Arven. You all had been hugging until Arven calmed himself. You all broke apart, then you pull a tissue out of your backpack and dried Arven’s tears. “Let’s head on out of here, okay? I’ll make us some sandwiches if you’d like one.” you tell him. Arven slowly nods, saying, “I could really use one.” “We’ll let you guys be if that’s alright?” Penny says. “Yeah,” Nemona said, “we’ll go our separate ways while you two relax.”

You all leave Area Zero; making it back up to the crater’s exit and out the gate. Nemona and Penny went their separate ways while you and Arven set up a picnic. You both made your sandwiches and got to eating. Arven sat beside you rather than across the table from you because he felt lonely. Knowing his own mom and dad died, he seemed hurt. But being around you and Mabostiff made him feel better.

“How are you feeling now, Arven?” you asked him in a gentle tone. Arven took a sip of his soda before answering, “Fine, sort of. But I’ll get there.” You nod, gently patting Arven’s back. Arven looks at you and cracks a small smile. He then hugs you again, saying, “Couldn’t have been through it all without you. I appreciate you being there.” “Of course, Arven.” you said, rubbing his back as you hugged him. You both had spent the entire day with each other. Including his Mabosstiff and your Koraidon and Miraidon.

[clanwarrior-tumbly]

i hope ur having a great day !! would u be able to write a professor turo x reader (romantic and fluffy) one shot where they work in the lab together and one day the reader asks him about arven, and while he gets a little defensive, it’s that event that causes him to reach out to his son and mend their relationship :) maybe reader even gets to meet arven and it’s just overall fluffy ? it’s okay if not, i totally understand !!

"The second Miraidon's aggression grows more by the day...its territorial disputes with the first are getting out of hand. To quell its ferocity, [y/n] and I will be running tests..."

As Turo muttered to himself while logging today’s events, you were currently cleaning the exterior of a Shiny Iron Bundle, who was your personal lab assistant.

Being down in Area Zero for so long had its perils, but you’ve grown accustomed to life here. And with Turo you always felt safe, even if he did some rather...questionable things.

Such as bringing futuristic Pokémon into the present and obsessing over how to integrate them into the Paldean ecosystem.

That time machine worked wonders; though perhaps it worked a little too well considering it’s now automatically catching them, overcrowding the caverns. But he wasn’t worried about a thing, as he believed he was getting closer and closer to achieving his goal.

However, that didn’t come without its costs.

With Sada leaving him and all of his assistants--save for you--abandoning the project because of his arrogance and ambitions...those factors certainly tanked his mental health. 

If not for you staying by his side and helping him push his ego down a few notches, Arceus only knows what would’ve happened to him.

Even so, there’s rare times when he’d leave Area Zero to go on dates with you. And since you’ve both made a home down here, the only cuddling you’d really do is when he’s dead asleep and physically cannot work until he gets some reast.

But you were okay with that; you've signed up for this. You didn't mind just working as science partners, researching Paradox Pokémon and the possibilities of tomorrow. It was your dream to see this through to the end, too.

What you did mind, however, was when the AI version of Turo suddenly inquired about Arven--a child you didn’t even know he had until this very moment. It made you and Iron Bundle look up in confusion as he walked into the research station.

"Professor, it's been about a month since you've last contacted Arven-"

"Then why don't you call him and tell him how I’m doing?" Turo huffed, not even looking at the AI as he stored the log. "I’m sure he could reach out to me at some point, too..it goes both ways, y’know.”

“You have a son?”

"..oh, did I not mention him?” He looked at you, his gaze softening a little. “Sorry. But yes, Arven’s my boy.”

“Does he go to Uva Academy?” Curious, you rested your elbows on the table. 

“Yep. He’s majoring in uh..culinary, I think.”

“Oooh, does he wanna open a restaurant or something when he graduates?”

“....I dunno.” He simply shrugged, suddenly disinterested in any further discussion of his son as he turned back to his work. “How’s Iron Bundle-”

“He’s your only kid and you don’t know what he wants to do with his life?” You blinked, raising an eyebrow. “And also..why order your AI to talk to him? Shouldn’t it be you instead? I think a month is an awful long time not to reach out to him...”

With an exasperated sigh, Turo set down the tablet rather harshly, fully facing you. “Look, it’s not like he can tell the difference between us. I’ve just been very busy with this research. And with it, I’m gonna give him and all of Paldea a bright future! He doesn’t understand it yet, and he might hate me now. But one day it’ll all make sense, and he’ll be thanking me-”

“Hm, for all this chitchat about giving him a bright future..it doesn’t sound like you’re giving him the best present.” You pointed out, unsure of why he was getting so defensive--as if any of this could justify him neglecting his child. “I don’t mean to pry but..do you even know how he’s doing right now? Is he lonely?”

“No. I gave him a Maschiff to raise. It’s a Mabosstiff now and he told me it learned some powerful fairy-type move, so he’s fine.”

“...I’m no psychologist, Turo, but..people can pretend to be fine when they aren’t-”

“Fine, so what do you want me to do, [y/n]?!” His eye twitched as he stared at you, his arrogance springing up once more. “Shutdown the lab?! Erase all this precious data we’ve uncovered?! Send those damn Pokémon back to their own time?!!”

Your Iron Bundle emitted a robotic croon of displeasure, looking sad, though you rubbed its head in reassurance. “It’s okay, buddy. He doesn’t mean that.” You spoke in a low whisper before looking back at your partner, taking a deep breath.

“No, I would never wanna do that, dear.” You calmly answered. “I just...don’t think it’ll kill you to take at least one day off and see Arven face-to-face. We have all the time in the world to work on this project, but..you may not have much time with him.”

“If I may, I am inclined to agree with Professor [L/n].” The AI Turo spoke up. “I could take over your duties while you spend the day with your son. I know you truly want to see him, and not just through a screen.”

“Deli-li-li!” Even Iron Bundle was agreeing, which annoyed Turo heavily as he glared at it. But after a few moments he calmed down, thinking over both of your words.

You made some good points. 

Arven could’ve just been lying through his teeth on those video calls. 

He could’ve been struggling to make friends, failing his classes, and...who knows what else? 

And Turo wouldn’t have suspected a thing because all he could focus on was his research. He promised his boy a better life but...for all he knew, his current life could be a living hell thanks to him.

Was this truly worth neglecting him over?

“..I wanna see him more than anything. I miss him a lot.” His shoulders slumped a bit. “But..I’m just afraid he despises me now. It’s possible he wants nothing to do with me.”

“You don’t know that for sure, Turo. He could be missing you just as much.” You spoke softly, taking his calloused hands into yours. “I know I can’t force you to go, but..will you at least think about visiting him? I’ll double-down on my work here and help your AI if I need to. And I’ll look after the Miraidons..whatever you want me to do, I’ll take care of it.”

He looked up at you, his guilt growing more and more by the second. You never even met his son, and yet....you were so determined to help them mend their relationship.

He just didn’t understand why, nor did he understand why you’d stay with someone as arrogant as him.

But you kept trying.

Maybe..he should try, too.

“I’m sorry..” Sighing, he rested his head on your shoulder, feeling utterly exhausted and conflicted. “I don’t mean to act like such a child. It’s just...difficult being away from this project for even a moment..”

“You have nothing to worry about, hun.” You stroked his hair in comfort, wrapping your arms around him. “It’s not gonna disappear in one night. I promise.”

“.........”

Although he said nothing in response, he did hug you back for a little while, showing that he really did need this. And eventually you both returned to your previous tasks, but Turo kept your words in the back of his mind.

Perhaps..it won’t kill him to at least take one day off.

........

The next morning, Turo sent Arven a message on his Rotom Phone, explaining that he wanted to arrange a proper meeting near the lighthouse where his old lab was, far from the dangers of Area Zero. 

While he was worried about the Miraidons going at each other’s throats, his AI designed a holding pen that’ll contain them separately for the time being. It also suggested that you accompanied your partner so that you both got a break while it managed the time machine and everything else.

You immediately jumped at the opportunity to visit Arven, being so happy you actually hugged it in thanks.

Hopefully neither of you will draw any attention to yourselves, especially not from the media who liked to bug you about the tera crystals and whatnot. Fortunately you had some casual clothes that helped you blend in with the locals, so getting to Poco Path was no trouble.

This wasn’t the time for TV or Internet spotlights, but for a father-son reunion that was long overdue.

By the time you arrived, Arven was already there outside the lab, making a sandwich for his Mabosstiff and him to share, reading a recipe from a book. You saw he wasn’t necessarily a Pokémon trainer given his lack of pokeballs, but he was certainly a talented student who was passionate about his culinary studies.

Turo stood there awkwardly--unsure of how to approach the kid he hasn’t spoken to for an entire month--only to be motivated by a nudge from you and a smirk.

Finally, he found his courage and cleared his throat. “Son?”

Looking up, Arven nearly dropped the toothpick in his hand, clumsily setting it down as he stared at his dad in bewilderment, unable to believe he was standing before him. It looked as though he saw a ghost, mouth slightly agape for a few seconds.

“D...Dad..?”

Turo approached him, seeing Mabosstiff’s equally surprised gaze. “Hello, Mabosstiff. I’ve seen you’ve grown quite a lot. So um...” He turned back to his son. “How’s everything with-?”

“It took you long enough..”

“Huh?” He barely heard Arven’s muttering as he bowed his head, hands clenched into fists. And when he looked back up at the professor, there were tears in his eyes.

“You have a lot of nerve showing up now, y’know. You were down there for an entire month! I almost thought you...y-you...” Yet he fell silent, instead taking a few steps forward.

You suddenly believed this reunion was gonna go horribly wrong in the next few seconds.

Maybe it was a bad idea to push it

Maybe there was a reason Arven never reached back out to him.

Maybe..this bond was beyond repair.

‘If I just made things worse, I’m gonna hate myself-’ You began to think, until you noticed Arven no longer seemed infuriated, but rather..disappointed.

“I-I thought you got hurt or something..I was gonna look for you even though you always told me how “dangerous” Area Zero is.” Sniffling, he rubbed his eyes, before looking up again. “Why were you gone for so long, dad?”

“...there’s no excuse, Arven. I let myself be consumed by my work, and I’m sorry.” Turo bowed his head in shame. “I only have myself to blame for not being there for you. You don’t have to forgive me, but-”

Suddenly, the young boy did something neither of you expected..

He hugged his dad.

Turo was initially frozen in shock, but then he slowly put his arms around him, sighing in relief when he realized Arven didn’t hate him 100%. And here he was..thinking he permanently ruined things between them. 

He absolutely didn’t deserve an ounce of forgiveness, yet he was given it anyways.

“You’re still..a bit of a jerk, but the fact you came to visit me shows you still care, and..I-I’ll take that.” Pulling away, Arven wiped the last of his tears away, smiling lightly. “I missed you a lot.”

“And I missed you, too, kiddo. I’m sorry again.”

The touching moment warmed your heart, though you didn’t wanna stare at them the entire time like a werido. So you looked towards the gradually setting sun over the ocean, realizing it was such a lovely view. ‘We gotta leave the crater more often..’ You mused. ‘I miss seeing the sunset..’

“So um..who are you?”

“..oh! Me? I’m [y/n].” Snapping out of your thoughts, you turned back to Arven, shaking his hand with a polite smile on your face. “I work with your father. I figured I’d come meet Paldea’s next best chef.”

“A-Ah..I’m just sticking to sandwiches for now.” He got a bit flustered, huffing as he looked back to Mabosstiff. “I’ve been experimenting with different sandwiches ever since I found out the ingredients can affect encounters with certain Pokémon.”

“I’ve heard of that phenomena. It’s fascinating, yet holds so much mystery.” You nodded in agreement. “Care to tell me more about your findings?”

Arven’s eyes practically sparkled at the question, and he nodded eagerly, leading you towards the picnic table.

While you and him discussed sandwiches, Turo went inside the old lab--where all his research started prior to making his home in Area Zero once he got better funding.

He looked around at all the notes and obsolete equations that he left behind. The main computer was still functional, so he could communicate with his AI if necessary.

But he stopped himself from turning the machine on, shaking his head and silently scolding himself. ‘This is what [y/n] doesn’t want you to do, Turo...just..take a break. For their sake..and for Arven’s.’

It was hard to shake the workaholic part of him away, though he managed to do so as he turned away from the computer, sighing. He couldn’t break his promise, not this time.

And so he left the lab as it was, being greeted by Mabosstiff the moment he stepped back outside. But this time, he was smiling at the hound, realizing his boy raised this dark type well.

You were right. The future could wait.

He had to treasure the present.

Professor Turo Headcanons:

Requested: @acuityinnovations

Characters: Professor Turo x reader

Contains: fluff

Warnings: none

• Being a well renowned Professor within Paldea can be stressful so Turo is honestly thankful when you come by Area Zero just to give him his favorite sandwich or dinner. He always feels happy to see you've made time to see him. He forgets that he's given you a keycard to enter. You had found out about his eating habits and scolded him on it. The microwave is barely used these days, thanks to you. He really does love your fresh meals.

• He feels very lucky to meet you after his divorce with Sada. He didn't think he'd have another partner after that woman. He always heard after a first marriage that it'd be hard to find another relationship so when he wasn't even thinking of a possibility in another relationship you've somehow poked his interest.

• A thing Turo loves about you is how curious you are about his work. You're rather innocent in his eyes and he does love the interesting questions or opinions you have of things, along with Pokemon themselves. You give him possible ideas for the future. Something his previous love wasn't as interested in the long run.

• He was always afraid of you're reaction of knowing he had a son. You were younger than him by a few years and he didn't want you to feel doubtful of yourself, let alone nervous that you were entering a once taken man. He was also afraid that Arven would act out- it was a normal reaction after all. But thankfully, Arven was so polite and you listened to his son's nonsense talk. He found it adorable how you would nod your head and talk. You were much more of a natural than he could ever be.

• He loves it when you rub his shoulders, it takes the tension off him. He especially loves it when you run your fingers through his hair. He loves feeling you're lips against his temple, down the side of his face and finally meeting his lips(No, the beard is not going away- get use to it).

• When you're ever feeling down he tends to give you a flirty comment or rather a lame pun with this side grin, eyebrow raise- just to see your reaction. It always gets him a slap on the chest and a roll of your eyes. But he always likes to see that small smile when you look away.

• He once caught you and Ai Turo talking alone in one of the lab rooms. He wasn't spying but he saw how you embraced it. Turo wouldn't tell you the next day why he was pouting- maybe sulking. But he was definitely on the verge of giving up his life's work for this one moment. Thankfully, you knew it wasn't Turo because the Ai talked a certain way and when you embraced it- "it felt cold." Turo felt so relieved that day he asked you to marry him.

Turo didnt believe in faith, much less would his AI counterpart believe in it. If anything, they both believed in the future, the waves of newfound achievements and exciting new discoveries. Turo wasnt one to focus on the past, rather, he focused on the future, and even farther than that. Perhaps, in some sense his ideals clashed harshly with Sada’s, who focused more on the past, the achievements already received and the things that already had happened, finding joy in discovering elements from the past that had been forgotten in favor of advancing.

Thats why, when he started feeling something weird in the way things seemed to move, the AI didnt waste any time in putting his head deep into discovering what was wrong, and what was causing said disturbance. What once started as the continuation of the deceased professor's research, now took a turn into studying this new variable, this new element that caught his attention, and with it, came his attention turning forward to you.

An interesting variable, Turo would find in you something he hadnt seen in years of investigation, yet, here you were, something—or rather someone—that proved the existence of a multiverse, and he welcomed said proof, after all, his research focused greatly in pokemon from diverse timelines, did it not? Thats what caused both of you to meet for the first time.

Breaking past pleasantries, Turo would call you forward once after you had yet again helped Miraidon regain part of its power, one of the few moments where he knew he could try to bring forward a conversation, but not bring afloat any suspicions, at least not more than were necessary to advance in his study. He’d begin simple, focusing on the present moment, with simple questions like what you were currently doing, what was it like in where you were, simple yet sufficient to gain a grasp at what he was battling with. That was perhaps when he heard it, when after what felt like weeks of research, he heard your voice for the first time.

“Kinda odd questions for a game like this” You said out in the air, not expecting any answers nor any questions, but Turo had many, in fact he had enough to bring even more questions for the next batch of questions he thought of bringing. With limited time and limited resources in the claustrophobic space he was battling in, his questions became more cryptic, more… strange to you. He started asking subtly about what you were doing, just that this time, he focused on whether your answer would focus on the “player” (as he guessed) rather than you, as the one behind the ropes.

Thats how he learnt more about you, slowly but surely, he learnt more and more, until eventually he’d learnt that you were adventurous, you kicked right back into challenges and, despite the weird events that went through in game due to his doing, you pushed forward. Often you would comment things like “Dude do you think every copy of Pokemon is personalized?” To no one to answer, but he’d chuckle at… whatever that was supposed to mean. Other times you spoke about “Kinda creepy how my bias is asking all these questions”, and once again would he chuckle, only that the word ‘Bias’ threw him for a loop, what had you meant with that? Part of him wished to come out of where he was currently in, just… walk out of Area Zero and greet you properly, greet you the way the late Professor used to do to those he met, but… He knew it wouldnt be possible. Besides, there was only so much the AI knew about the outside world, just enough for it to be useful in the current moment. Still, he wanted to know more, explore more, learn more things, a hunger he hadnt felt ever since he was created, but…

…Was he really just an AI anymore?

The question threw him for another loop when it came to his mind. He had begun questioning his existence as a created being, someone of metal, someone of artificiality. He was the future, but in between said future, came questions of who he had grown to be after what were now months of investigation of this new horizon. So, when you came to Area Zero, when you came to him, he was eager to finally do what he hadnt done in years.

“Thank you for coming to Area Zero, though I am afraid I must reveal the truth to you” He began, closely following the script of what he was meant to say, despite breaking past the code he had been studying for days on end. “I am not really Professor Turo, but his assistant, made in his likeness”

“I knew it—I called it!!” You noted in the air, yet again, not expecting anyone to answer, before something, or perhaps someone, answered those words.

“You… Knew it?”

“Huh?”

For the first time, it was Turo’s time to throw you in for a loop, questioning everything that had been happening thus far. Yet, he’d only smile, everything was going exactly as he had expected after all.

“While Im afraid to sour your momentary excitement, I must ask you some more questions about what is currently happening.” He’d say, walking off to the side before lift an eyebrow at the resonating groan you’d shoot him, turning quickly to face you with a confused face. “Is, something the problem?”

“More questions, great…” You mumbled to yourself, oblivious to what was happening currently, to what was really going on in between the code and the binary.

Turo would hum for a bit, bringing a hand to his chin as if in thought, yet, before he could even bring up an answer, a question would bring him out of the loop he was in for a long time ago. You’d ask to the air, yet again, what was really happening this time, why out of sudden had these words seemed to be directed straight towards you, and perhaps thats when it clicked on your mind, even if the thought was too wild, too weird to be considered fair, to be considered a possibility, you clicked your tongue and asked yet again.

“Are you… perhaps… aware this is a game?”

The question would bring his mind turning and running, like a machine beating fast and rough, you denied yourself almost instantly, but for Turo, this seemed to be the missing cog in his whole scheme, the entirety of things he had been researching but had close to no answer to it all. If this, if all his existence seemed to revolve around a game which someone controlled, then that would explain the strange things he had been experimenting, albeit not explain the reasoning behind his sudden awareness in said stage. It was strange, it was a sudden revelation, a shot of luck in the darkness. But he caught it, he took it in his hands and ran with it, after all, would there ever be a chance like this in the future?

“Could you, say that again?” He asked, almost as if begging to whoever was out there to answer him.

“What?”

“A game… Talk to me more about this game”

Granting his request nonchalantly would bring afloat a strange relationship between the both of you. Stuck in that part of the game, you’d answer Turo's questions, and Turo would finally (and more comfortably) advance in his study. While there were elements that he was already aware of, he’d become… amused, if anything, about certain other elements of your reality that caught his attention, like the lack of pokemon, or the lack of technological advancements in certain topics. He’d lift his eyebrow specially regarding topics of investigations made, almost making you read word by word certain papers regarding such investigations, which prompted a set of rules to be created regarding what you and he could do with each other’s resources.

You compromised on some, and he compromised on others, you bought the online pass as a compromise, and he stopped asking too much as another compromise, despite his hunger for knowledge often coming unfed… but not for long. His investigation would draw him to explore past the limits of the “game” he was in, but not enough to break through the “screen”, instead, his insatiable curiosity would be filled to the brim with investigations and papers he managed to find using the hidden web browser in the switch. The drawback? It lasted only 20 minutes, which wasnt a bad time limit, he could read quickly and efficiently, yet, there was a sensation of disappointment when it came to the fact he could only advance so much, plus not being able to keep his resources for too long of a time.

“Im so tired…” His musings would stop for a moment, then, hearing you come about the apartment. Your voice had become enough to break his concentration, but at the same time, the routine of hearing you come up, pop up and nonchalantly call out to him, it was starting to become…

… warm.

“What are you up to while Im gone?” You’d ask him, and he’d lose focus again after unsuccessfully attempting to regain it. “I mean… I leave the game on as part of the deal but… Is there… really much you can do there?”

“I read” He answered, coldly and perhaps too bluntly, causing you to roll your eyes, not like he could see it though “Papers, works of science… This world you’re in is…”

“Interesting? Yea you already told me…” You groan, fiddling with the controls of the switch before setting it down.

“Right…” He answered, looking down back at his writing, neat scribbles forming words and shapes, he’d nod quietly, before looking at the you that was in game. “...”

He’d stare at it for long, long moments, perhaps as if waiting for something to happen, but the coldness of Florian’s eyes and his purple uniform were less than appealing to the professor, and suddenly, he wondered what you were like. By your voice he knew you were an adult, the only thing he knew was yours, truly yours, but the rest? A mystery. Time had passed ever since your first meeting, time had passed ever since he first had knowledge that he was aware of his existence inside a game, and even with your nonchalant attitude, he found himself… yearning for something more than just chatting.

“Why did you call me bias once?”

“Jesus fucking christ you scared me—”

He’d stare at you blankly, not fearing to repeat the question again as you fumbled for your words. He wondered what your reaction was, after some research he had come to learn the meaning behind “bias”, yet it still confused him, and humored him, that you would use such a word for him. So, he’d ask, and in your nervousness you’d manage to dodge the question, which only brought his curiosity up more. Like a quiet disease, then, feelings of curiosity and yearning creep through his circuits, he felt the need to know who you were, what you did, the things you liked, the things you didnt. He yearned for more, yet to him his feelings felt like a mystery.

So he asked again, once, this time receiving an actual answer from you which would bring far more questions than answers.

“Thats… weird…” You’d begin “Are you sure you’re an AI assistant? You sound quite humane…”

“Please answer the question.”

“I mean… It sounds like you’re falling in love…”

You were confused, you had skipped past the bias stage rather tactfully when he asked, yet now he asked about feelings creeping on his back, feelings about infatuation and love, perhaps tingled with an obsession you could only seem to find reason in his seeming hunger for knowledge. Yet for Turo, this felt like a life sentence. Love was deadly, he knew that too well having the knowledge from the past professor, who died in a search for a better place for his family. But Love was also intoxicating, filling his mind with scenarios and ideas. He found himself at a standstill then, between the need for knowledge and the feelings that suddenly creeped up on his mind.

Yet when the day came that you didnt greet him back, was perhaps the day that he made the final decision on said topic. It was rainy, or so he thought, at least out of Area Zero the air was humid which indicated rain or a chance of rain. He could hear muffled crying, or at least what felt like crying, prompting him to ask what was wrong, yet the answer wasnt one he expected.

“My boyfriend left me” You cried, a muffled noise that Turo couldnt fully comprehend, yet he made the best out of the words in the bunch. “Just, im not in the mood to talk today, do your thing and leave me alone…”

“But-”

“Leave me alone! You’re not even real anyway…”

In your mind, you thought it all to be a dark dream, one you’d wake up from sooner or later. But for him, he finally found the answer to his question, deciding to make a drastic turn that may or may not bring him to the same level as the befallen professor Turo. He’d imvestigate the code yet again, utilizing previous methods to try and break free from it. If he couldnt break free from Area Zero, then Arceus, let him break free from the confines of the switch. It’d take him a week, a long, arduous week, before he’d finally be able to see it, the limit from which reality and fiction blended. He turned back for a moment before turning forward, and stepping out of the confines of the game.

He’d come about inside a room, quaint as it could ever be with few elements that he noted could be yours, little trinkets, posters, an unmade bed which he carefully prompted himself to make, and a rainy day outside of the window. Today was rainy, yesterday it had been rainy too, and tomorrow it’ll probably be rainy as well. He hummed as he heard the fumbling of keys, before coming out of the bedroom into the rest of the apartment.

As you’d come inside you wouldnt see anything out of the blue, considering he didnt have time to deal with the rest of the mess. Scattered tissues, scattered plates of food, almost my chance had you and him crossed paths when you passed towards the living room, and thats when it happened. You didnt have the voice to scream, but you did have the energy to run to him and hug him, feel his body for a moment, his arms and torso, the scent of stillness and robotics, sterility, and ultimately, the realization that he was there, standing, unsure of the next course of action.

“Turo” You’d start, tears pricking your eyes as he looked down at you. “Is, is it really you?”

“... Yes, I am real, arent I?” He’d say calmly, perhaps a bit coldly, but with two arms wrapping themselves around your body with calmness, he’d sigh.

“... Dont leave” You’d say, dropping to the floor with him following you suit. “Please…”

“I wont” He’d answer, and in the darkness of the night, the only illumination in the room would be his eyes, as you wept quietly in his arms.

cw: slither wing ingo and emmet, pokehybrid au, poly (ingo x reader, Emmet x reader), essentially bug cavemen, just little scenarios

-----

They were fascinating.

It had been apparent since you first spotted them before you, but it was just reinforced as they tidied up their nest. Their insect-like eyes were focused on making it as comfortable for you as they could. The fact they were ancient Volcarona hybrids who were brought here to this specific crater by a mad scientist was astounding and almost sounded fictional.

Well, had the woman herself not tried to attack you in a panic of your unexpected intrusion into her 'paradise'. The twin moths were protecting you in an instant. The one had taken up a more aggressive role guarding you instantly. Emmet, you later learnt the professor had named, alongside his counterpart's name to be Ingo. She sighed at this all, pinching the bridge of her nose. Without further argument, her aggression faded.

Professor Sada explained to you that these hybrids were older than even most fossil pokemon, which was quite a terrifying discovery. She seemed curious about how they had sought out a human for themselves, but shrugged it off as behaviour that simply evaded her current understanding. She simply warned you there was no way to escape unless the Slither Wing hybrids decided to attempt escape again, and that you were free to use the research stations as needed. With that, she left off with a strange dragon-like creature that was completely unfamiliar with you.

The idea that the professor brought these ancient pokemon to current day left you in a silent amazement. There were so many questions that crossed your mind to ask them, but one huge barricade prevented that. Ingo and Emmet lacked any proper modern language communication. Anything more complicated than their names, yes, no and help was impossible for them to grasp. While Ingo had taken to trying to learn your language, it had made little progress with no common ground to meet on.

Yet… They were still interesting. Wings that served no purpose as they failed to pick the hybrids weight off the ground, fluff that covered their body to help conserve precious heat, a tail that assisted in balance. Their anatomy left you curious. It was fascinating to spend time pondering how they evolved into modern Volcarona hybrids. How did hybrids even vary back in the day? Were humans as wary and cruel towards them as they are today, or had that developed alongside societies? Many questions, yet no way to get answers.

You sighed as the nest was easily restructured by them before climbing inside it. It was a small den-like area hidden in a crevice in the rocks. It was levelled so rain did not come in and flood the area. You curled up under the blankets that had been taken from the stations. Ingo crawled over and curled around you. Soft clicks and hums came from him as the warmth from his body soaked into yours.

Emmet had clearly wandered off, likely to go hunting, leaving you alone with the softer of the two. Settling in more, you yawned. Your phone had long since died, and time became impossible to track outside of entire days. From the paper also borrowed from the research station, you had realised that it had been a few months now. Life was easier down here than it ever had been above ground, horribly. There were no unfulfilling jobs to work, taxes, or anything that brought endless stress on the surface.

It was a pleasant change, the crater. Turning on your other side, you nuzzled your face into the endless fuzz on Ingo's body, which resulted in a purr-like noise and him moving closer. The heat which burned within Volcarona's bodies were endlessly apparent in them. You yawned again and finally drifted off on the moth hybrid's arms.

~

You were awakened later by Emmet's return and his dumping of both berries and assorted insects that were edible by the twins. It was definitely hard to get your proper diet down here, but you could tell the twins were trying their best. Ingo shook awake, too, and crept away towards the mess of food to pick out a meal he felt worthy. You sighed as Emmet hummed sweetly and crept over to you, where he laid a perfect liechi Berry. His grin was sweet, and it was obvious he obtained it just for you.

Softly, you ate it, but found yourself intrigued as he returned to the mess of insects. It was clear they were not eating the mass of them from the very beginning, but only desiring their body fluids, just as they only drank the juice of the berries. You bit into the sweet, yet oddly spicy fruit and wondered if modern Volcarona were the same. You had never seen them eat anything but berries, but it was entirely possible they engaged with the same behaviour as their ancestors. Sighing, you finished your fruit and pondered exploring the area more thoroughly for any more foods to properly fill your diet.

When you tried to leave, however, loud growls and whines came from the Slither Wings as they pulled you back into the nest. You then remained in Emmet's lap as he continued his devouring of the food he had hunted.

~

You jumped when you heard your name spoken. Ingo just tilted his head and repeated it again. His ability in learning modern language was going better than you had ever expected. Certain sounds were easier for him to make than others, but he clearly adored learning your name. He said it quite often. It was made you scared every time.

“Yes, Ingo?” you turned to him with a tilt of your head. His smile was awkward as he softly walked towards you and embraced you. His soft hums and purrs were sweet as he, mindful of his sharp antennae, nuzzled his face into your neck. You hugged him back with a soft sigh.

“Luh-v yuu,” he replied and pecked kisses around your cheeks. You smiled and laughed.

“I love you, too,” you responded before pressing your own kiss to his lips.

~

It was nice to explore the mysterious crater, but your chaperone seemed a bit more hesitant than preferred. Emmet clearly hated you being too far from their nest. Maybe it was related to how terrifying it must be having been ripped from their time to modern day. While the crater remained almost completely untouched by humanity, it was not so easy to adjust with modern pokemon.

Even if something as passive as a Flabébé approached, his fur puffed up, and he let out a growl. You would pat him and tell him to calm down, but he clearly could not feel at ease in his new locations. You wondered if Sada felt it even a bit cruel to rip these pokemon from the past and force them into the present. Petting Emmet's head, you sat down under a tree and gazed up at the sky. He sat closely beside you and hummed.

“Do… you understand me?” you asked. He nodded, letting out a soft trill. A sigh came from you. “Do you miss your home? Are you upset the professor brought you here?” you continued. He again nodded and let out a soft whine. Your heart broke at his noises. You brought him in for an embrace as he suddenly burst into tears. “Hey, sorry Emmy…” you cooed.

You were then lifted up and rushed back to his nest.

The best, broken reason for this was Emmet's terror over losing you. He had come to love you too much that he had almost entirely accepted his place in this strange world. Soft trills and coos came from him as he nuzzled his cheek to yours. You smiled and hugged him close.

Sada Posting

I didn't include Sada on my scarvio headcanons because I didn't so here she gets her own post

Sada is hard to talk about because I’ve written about her in one of my general headcanons posts and I don’t want to retread old ground but I also feel the need to clarify that there are generally one of two ways that Sada posting can go.

Sada was burned in the past by Arven’s father, who left soon after his birth, so she was incredibly hesitant to reenter the dating scene. However, when she met you, having bumped into you by complete accident, she decided to take the risk in pursuing a relationship, and you saw no reason to turn her down.

And it’s great to have you around, as she loves you dearly, but you being in the picture, along with her darling son, only pushed her further over the edge, as she became even more determined to find paradise for her newly found family. All she wanted was the best for the both of you. With no one to keep her in check, she buried herself within mountains of research, never once stopping to consider the effects of that kind of behavior. To her, being away for the moment, even if it was hard on the two of you, was worth it in the long run.

It fell to you, as the person who she loved above all else, to confront her about her workaholic tendencies. You begged and pleaded with her in the hopes that maybe, just maybe, your words would get through to her, that she would realize and understand how her actions made you and, especially, her son feel. However, realistically speaking, Sada was likely already too far off the rails to listen to reason, but that’s angsty, and I’m not in too much of an angsty mood right now.

Instead, let’s focus on a Sada who actually listened to you, one that realized the amount of harm her actions caused and that it ultimately wasn’t worth it, because creating the perfect world for her family meant nothing if she was never around to begin with. And so, she begins to spend far less time in Area Zero, if not pulling out of the hell hole completely, and begins to focus on living with you and Arven in the moment.

For the most part, you’re a normal family. Just a mother, her son, her new wife, a weird prehistoric dog, and a regular dog. A perfectly average family not riddled with trauma and abandonment. Most of your days are spent looking after little Arven and his puppy, playing and taking care of him until Sada arrives home in the late evening, where she finds the two of you preparing dinner together. She always walks through the door, shouting out “I’m home!” while waiting for Arven to run up and tell her about the day the two of you had.

Her days off are always spent with the two of you. Should the weather allow it, you spend the whole day outside, roaming the wilderness. You have a picnic in a scenic locale, the two of you lounging on the blanket while Arven and Maschiff run around in the grass until he pulls you both up to come and play with him. Eventually, as all kids do, he tires himself out, signaling the end of the day. You pack up your belongings and begin the long walk home, Arven already asleep in Sada’s arms.

Every now and then, Clavell takes care of Arven for the night so the two of you can spend some time together. Sada isn’t the most romantic person in the world, but she is charismatic and incredibly bold. Due to often being recognized in public, she prefers to spend date nights inside, having a nice dinner with wine and cuddling on the couch, which quickly turns to making out as you both ignore the shitty movie playing in the background. Just normal parent things.

To most people’s surprise, Sada is a massive nerd. It should be expected, honestly, considering that she is a professor and has some massive accomplishments under her belt. She’s a huge history buff, and will effortlessly crush the expectations of others, perceiving her to be a suave individual, by rambling on about incredibly minute historical details for hours on end. She’s like Raifort in this regard, but in, like, a different flavor.

ALSO, she loves to ramble about her family. If she, for whatever reason, doesn’t feel like rambling about history to the people around her, she will instead ramble about you two, because have you seen her beautiful wife? Her incredibly talented culinary son? Oh, don’t worry, she has more than enough time to stay and chat for a while, and also has plenty of pictures to show, as well.

The above absolutely kills Arven, because Sada regularly drops by the Academy, giving her the perfect chance to talk to various staff about her family, which leads to many students overhearing these conversations. The boy already has to put up with people loudly simping over his moms, but now he has to deal with people teasing him about these conversations, as she often divulges details (and photos) from his formative years.

And I know this post is about Sada, but I can’t talk about Sada without talking about Arven. When you start dating the woman, she’ll introduce you to her son, and, at first, he’s pretty shy, hiding behind her legs and only peeking his head out occasionally to look at you. Overtime, he’ll get more comfortable around you, enough to not feel the urge to run away and hide when you look in his general direction.

Slight angst posting, when you first meet Arven, it’s when Sada’s still engrossed in Area Zero, meaning he spends most of the time on his own with Maschiff. Obviously, you can’t just leave the boy to fend for himself while Sada’s away, so you progressively spend more and more time with him, to the point that he sees you as more of a mom than his biological one. He was the reason you had to confront Sada about her behavior to begin with, as you could only take the young boy asking if it was his fault that mom was away for so long before breaking.

Anyways, just because I want to give Arven a better family life by bringing his mom back to normalcy and giving him a loving stepmom at  the same time doesn’t mean I won’t make him suffer. As stated, people simp over Sada and you, once they learn of your existence, of course. Poor thing has two milfs for parents, and he has to deal with people bringing it up constantly. Having both of your unconditional support is great, and getting to see Sada on a semi-regular basis while living at the Academy is nice and all, but he would sacrifice so much to escape simping hell, if only for a few moments.

Listen she’s just broken aND I CAN FIX HER

SFW Prompt - Sada - “Don’t be stupid, this snake isn’t poisonous.” Person A goes to pick up said snake; “It’s venomous, there’s a difference.” Can I get a headcanon/imagine format?

Event Information | Prompts List 

SFW Professor Sada: Venomous, not Poisonous.

You watched as the Ekans slithered by you in the wilds, chilling as you ate your sandwich. Sada looked over the table, noticing the peculiar colors of this particular Ekans. Sure it was green, which was cool and all, but you had food in your hand and no time to really think about anything other than getting something in you.

You then looked on in horror as Sada went over to it, starting to reach down, "Sada, that thing's poisonous! You can't just pick it up!" You whisper hissed at the woman. Sada looked over at you with a smile and chuckled.

"Don't be stupid, this Ekans isn't poisonous." She said as she picked up said Ekans gently by the neck. The snake pokemon wrapped its body around her wrist, but otherwise couldn't bite down, "It's venomous, there's a difference." She concluded.

"That doesn't make it any better!" You cried out. Nothing you could do about it now as she smiled at the pokemon who was calming down in her grasp. What were you going to do with this woman?

Arven x Female Reader: Clawing And Aching

It’s that time of the month for you. You didn’t feel good and got a little scare out of Arven.

It was a Saturday afternoon and there were no classes to attend to. You felt icky, though. You get up to go to the bathroom and notice you had gotten your period. So after you do your business and put a pad in your underwear, you go back to bed. That’s when Arven comes in to see you curled up in your bed and holding your tummy. He worriedly walks up to you. “Hey, sweetness,” he says, kneeling down beside your bed and stroking your cheek, “are you okay? You don’t look so good.” Your eyes were tearing up at the feel of Arven’s gentle touch. Arven notices, then sits up and kisses your tears away.

“Shhh…” he softly shushes you, “don’t cry, sweetie. Is there something going on? What can I do for you?” You try to breathe through those menstrual cramps you’ve been having. “I’m on my period.” you groan. Arven tilts his head in confusion. “What’s a period?” he asks. “We girls get it every month.” you said. Arven pulls out his phone. “Rotom,” he said, “what is a period?” The phone then says, “A period consists of bloating, breast tenderness, mood swings, irritability, spotty skin, cramps, low sex drive and bleeding from a female’s lower regions.” Arven’s face goes pale; his eyes shot wide open in terror when he hears of you females bleeding down there. “Oh, god…” he panics. You put a hand on Arven’s shoulder, trying to relax him. “It’s normal, honey,” you said, “don’t panic. All of us females go through it every month.”

Arven digs through research on periods through the internet and begins to understand. He hasn’t known anything about periods; his mother, Professor Sada, hasn’t been home at all for him to understand. But now he does. He looks at you, finally calming down. “Do you need anything, sweetie?” he asks. “Well,” you groan tiredly, “I just used up my last pad. Could you pick up some more for me, pretty please? Along with some medicine?” Arven tucks some of your hair behind your ear and nods. “Sure, love,” he says, “you hang tight and I’ll go pick some up. Could I get you some water before I head out?” You nod. Arven gets up and goes into your kitchen to get you a glass of water. He brings it to you. “I’ll be right back,” he says as he kisses you on the head, “I’ll bring home some ingredients for dinner, too.” Then he heads out the door.

Arven comes back with a pack of pads, a bottle of Pamprin, candy bars and some fixings for your favorite meal he plans on cooking for you. You saved enough water for your medicine. Arven brings you the Pamprin bottle. “Here, sweetie.” he says soothingly to you. “Thanks, darling.” you said, tiredly, as you take the bottle. You took two tablets and drank down the rest of your water. Arven then sits down on the bed with you and holds you close, gently rocking you. “I’ll fix dinner whenever you would like me to,” he says, soothingly, as he gently runs a hand through your hair, “I’m making your favorite.”

“Thank you, honey.” you say, resting your head against Arven’s chest, practically falling asleep in his hold. Arven kisses you atop your head, still gently rocking you. He, momentarily, lays the both of you down so he could take a nap with you.

Professor Sada x reader

(Timelines..)

(WARNING! This contains spoilers for Scarlet and violet ending)

No one’s pov

Everything’s confusing you always thought, you were just trying to do a treasure hunt.., You helped Arven. You became a champion ranked trainer like nemona. You discovered the truth about teamstar by penny..who was the leader…, you did everything.. “sada…” you said as you watched before your eyes the Sada you saw on screen wasn’t the real sada..just an AI created to continue sada work…, you battled her..yet you won, and you knew the only way to stop the time machine was for AI sada to go to the past

Months passed sense that day and Arven seems to be better then he has been, you battle nemona a lot to train with your starter, penny has been better with with her friends (teamstar) while you have been thinking ..you couldn’t stop thinking about that day..the day AI sada was discovered and “died” to stop the machine.., you weren’t gonna lie and say you didn’t like sada romantically…it was only a crush, you did cry about it like a dumbass, you we’re confused why you liked her.., you were walking to your class that arven was in but heard a noise in Clavells office.., Clavell wasn’t here today because he got sick but it made you curious so you walked in the room and saw a figure of a lady on the ground seeming..hurt, “uh miss are you ok?” You asked as the lady looked up and you stood there staring… “I-I found you” She said getting up and you knew her “s-sada?” You said surprise and a little nervous as she went to you and hugged you “weres my son..” “h-how are you here..-“ sada pulled away “I’m not the AI sada..I’m from a timeline were everything was destroyed and the first person I wanted was to see my son but….you I saw you try to protect my son..and I wanted to come back…to a timeline were I can help..” she spoke as you were confused but nodded..

You ended up telling Arven to meet you by your dorm and when he did he walked in and saw His mother sada “m-mom…?” “I’m afraid I’m not the AI or your regional mom but I still want to be your mom..” she walked over and arven asked so many questions and she answered and after they talked sada pulled him close into a hug trying to comfort him..you felt bad for arven but what could you do tho, but suddenly you got hugged by arven “thank you little buddy” he smiled at you

A few days past and you noticed sada was closer around you and wanting to know a lot about you and you gave her everything you could and surprising you with things you liked and you couldn’t help but feel that crush from before and before you could tell yourself don’t sada had pulled you close “hey..[Name]..I like you a lot and i want you to be with me..” “I’d love too Sada” she was really excited and happy she kissed you gently and you were honestly happy.. even arven was happy for you and his mom..

Check out the Red/Blue Ships List here X

Continuation of my attempt to create a tierlist for every color scheme, here is the Orange/Black tierlist, which also includes Orange/Purple and Orange/Blue pairings due to the amount of overlap I was seeing in the color schemes.
