A Brave New Start
Long time no see! It was about time I posted something here and, while it is fanfic related, it's not exactly the kind of thing I usually post. Now, look at this screenshot:
Brave New World is a very old Pokémon OC fanfiction I started working on back in 2017. It was a highly ambitious project that never really reached its destination, although I managed to write twelve chapters. Most of the tags don't actually reflect characters or events that one could find within these chapters, but rather things that would or should happen in the future. However, these things won't be happening now. In fact, if you go to my AO3, you won't find this fic. I deleted it on January 28th because I'm redoing this story.
Why January 28th? Because it's the day of 2017 I came up with the concept for this Brave New World's protagonist, Juliette Ronson. It's actually pretty silly: it all started because I saw that in one of the shops in SM they had both a cap and a pair of shoes themed after Zygarde. I suddenly thought, "What if I created a Trainer OC whose goal is reuniting all of the Zygarde Cells and having it as her partner?".
I actually started working on this story not long after, but then USUM were announced and I decided to wait and see what happened with Necrozma in these games because I really wanted to include it in the fic. Seeing its tragic backstory in canon made me want to portray it in a sympathetic light with Juliette being its biggest defender, but now that I look at my old notes I can see I gave it all a very melodramatic spin lol.
Many things will change for Brave New World, its main pairing being one of them. As you can see, I intended to ship Juliette with Kiawe. However, Game Freak has recently presented us with a character who, after some time, I came to see as a better fit for her (Hint: read the fanfic's summary and see if it reminds you of someone). I'd love to go on a tangent about this topic, but I'd rather save it for another day. This is not to say that Kiawe will no longer be a part of Juliette's life, they will be friends regardless. In fact, Juliette will still have a crush on him for some part of the story, but she decides it's best to let it go because of reasons (Spoiler: he's taken).
Something that won't change is having my friend as a co-author of the story. Not only she offers interesting ideas and good insight, she also allows me to have one of her OCs in it and I wouldn't have it any other way. My friend's OC is called Luana and she becomes Juliette's closest friend. Their personalities contrast and complement each other at the same time, making them an interesting duo. I can't wait to write about their interactions again!
That's all I have to say about Brave New World for now. I always try to work on the new version's draft here and there, whenever my busy student schedule allows me to lol. I will post stuff about the rewriting process from time to time because I'm pretty excited about sharing this renewed version. I think it will not just show my growth as a writer, but also as a person.

@turnourterrorintogold sent me this ask game by @gilgamemesh so here we go~
1. Your first OC ever?
I can’t remember lol.
2. Do you have a personal favourite among your OCs?
Hmm I like drawing my big alien cat gorl Kida. Her design is fun and it’s probably the most “solid” character I have so far (alongside Orion).
3. Have you ever adopted a character or gotten a character from someone else?
Yeah, I kinda adopted Zokii, an albino galra oc from my dear friend Mij who sent me this ask game.
4. A character you rarely talk about?
I have many ocs but I don’t talk much about any of them. I’ve been talking a lot about my galra oc’s with my friend Mij though.
5. If you could make only one of your OCs popular/known, who would it be?
I don’t know, I would be really happy if any of my ocs got popular.
6. Two OCs of yours that look alike despite not being related?
I don’t think I have any yet.
7. Are your OCs part of any story or stories?
Like, in fanfic? Because I have the Sheith children that will be part of a fanfic Mij is writing.
8. Do you RP as any of your OCs? If you do, introduce one of your RP OCs here!
No, I don’t.
9. Would you ever be willing to give any of your OCs to someone else?
I’m working on a oc for Mij so yeah.
10. Introduce an OC with a complicated design?
I don’t think any of my ocs have really complicated designs lol (at least the ones I have given more tought on).
11. Is there any OC of yours you could describe as a “sunshine”?
Kida.
12. Name an OC that isn’t yours but who you like a lot
Bud, Leo and Thatch are the ones I can think on the top my head now (and Zokii who is Mij’s oc ofc).
13. Do you have any troublemaker OCs?
Yeah, I have some villains too but I’m still working on them.
14. Introduce an OC with a tragic backstory
Leona, a fan apprentice from The Arcana. She had an abusive father, and ran away from her clan after being scratched in the face by an albino jaguar that later becomes her familiar.
15. Do you like to talk about your OCs with other people?
Yes!
16. Which one of your OCs would be the best at biology (school subject)?
Orion? Or maybe another Voltron oc I have (from the next generations of paladins)? I don’t know, didn’t think about it.
17. Any OC OTPs?
Not yet.
18. Any OC crackships?
Welp I saw a post in the rayllum tag once saying “what if Rayla broke up with someone before going to the Katolis?” and I tought it was cool, so I created a moonshadow elf oc called Luana, Rayla’s ex girlfriend lol.
19. Introduce an OC that means a lot to you (and explain why)
I don’t know man I like all of them. I could introduce Kida or Orion, ‘cause they’re pretty solid ocs but I already talked a lot about them.
20. Do any of your OCs sing? If they sing, care to share more details (headcanon voice, what kind of songs they like etc)?
I don’t think any of them can sing... Maybe Luana?
21. Your most artistic OC
Orion! He’s one of my Sheith kids oc. Unlike the rest of his family, despite of him being a good fighter and a good strategist, he has no desire in following a militar career because he’s an artist! And he likes taking pictures of all the amazing things he gets to see when he travels to planets of the coalition with his family. He’s like an honorary member in missions because he, alongside a small team, records everything that’s going on aboard. He’s always ready to help when things get tought though.
22. Is there any OC of yours people tend to mischaracterize? If yes, how?
Few people know about my ocs, so no.
23. Introduce OC that has changed from your first idea concerning what the character would be like?
Welp, Kida was supposed to be more serious and way less cute and cat-like.
24. If you could meet one OC of yours, who would it be and why?
Any of my pet ocs (pokémon, dragons, familiars, etc.)
25. The OC that resembles you the most (same hobby, height, shared like/dislike for something etc?)
Most of my sonas and one or other oc from The Arcana.
26. Have you ever had to change your OC’s design or something else about them against your will?
Nope.
27. Any OCs that were inspired by a certain song?
I have three or more that that I’m basing off of two Lord Huron’s songs: Yawning Grave and Frozen Pines.
28. Your most dangerous OC?
My vilains I guess.
29. Which one of your OCs would go investigate an abandoned house at night without telling anyone they’re going?
Any of my mcs from Mystic Messenger. I mean, the mc already kinda did that didn’t she? Lmao.
30. Which one of your OCs would most likely have a secret stuffed animal collection?
Many of them because they’re nerds and I like stuffed animals so I can’t help it.
31. Pick one OC of yours and explain what their tumblr blog would be like (what they reblog, layout, anything really)
Kida would have a pastel blog, and she would probably mostly reblog and post cute aesthetic pictures and gifs.
32. Which one of your OCs would be the most suitable horror game protagonist and why?
My Mystic messenger mcs because they’re dumb enough to follow the instructions of a complete stranger and break in someone’s apartment lol.
33. Your shyest OC?
Probably Leona.
34. Do you have any twin characters?
I have Allurance kids as well, they’re twins- a boy and a girl.
35. Any sibling characters?
The Allurance and Sheith kids (Orion, Kida and Zokii are adopted sibblings, they’ll probably get a human sister too in the future).
36. Do you have OC pairs where the other part belongs to someone else (siblings, lovers, friends etc)?
Zokii, they’re Kida and Orion’s older brother.
37. Introduce an OC who is not quite human
I’m just gonna link this.
38. Which one of your OCs would be the best dancer?
Probably Frida, my the arcana fan apprentice from Julian’s route.
39. Introduce any character you want
I have this furry alien boy which is the same alien species as Olia (Voltron). He’s one of Pidge’s favorite students and one of the next generation of paladins, but I couldn’t decide if he’s the blue or red paladin yet.
40. Any fond memories linked to your characters? Feel free to share!
Well, it was cool talking about the sheith kids with Mij on discord.
41. Has anyone drawn fanart of your OCs? If yes, maybe show a picture or two here (remember sources & permissions!)
My friend and I made an art exchange and I posted it here a few years ago.
42. Which one of your OCs would be the most interested in Greek gods?
Orion, Leona, the allurance daughter, one of” the next generation paladins” oc and Zago (the arcana fan apprentice from Asra’s route).
43. Do you have any certain type when you create your OCs? Do you tend to favour some certain traits or looks? It’s time to confess
Don’t know...?
44. Something you like about your OCs in general
Well, I try to make my characters diverse and unique.

Some ocs from dumb stories I wrote when I was younger.
46. Has anyone ever told you that you treat your OCs badly?
No.
47. Has anyone ever (friendly) claimed any of your OCs as their child?

Most of them probably.
50. Give me the good ol’ OC talk here. Talk about anything you want.
I have a night fury plushie that I want to turn into an oc, but I couldn’t decide the name or if it’s a male or female.
Maybe it’s a female and I’ll give her a light fury girlfriend, who knows?

Luana Lightwood is struggling. So is the iron steeled Detective Rizzoli we all know and love. Thousands of miles apart they finally accept themselves into each other’s family. And with family comes sharing each other’s problems.
“She’s a vampire, yet she rules your life;” she whispers in a hushed tone, the fearful contrast between the silence of the walls scaring me. I’d only seen care and softness in her eyes but I no longer saw anything. I was chilled to the very bones, her eyes reflected nothing but death. Her soft hands turned to an icy grip on my wrists before she slumps to the floor. Run Lightwood...

Character Intro #1
Luana Hoapili - The Siofra of Keona
(As of Arc 0/Prologue)
Age: 19
Species: Changeling (raised/spirited away by the Sidhe/Formorians/Akua)
Ethnicity: Maoli+Jawara
Nationality: Keonian, but is applying for citizenship in Tovera as the prologue goes on.
Quote: "A life among humans is all I desire-and I will make it mine."
Short Arc 0 Bio+ALT art under the cut!
Quiet, yet stubborn, determined, yet cautious, Luana is the protagonist of TLGoTH saga!
Born and raised in Keona, a small country led by a constitutional monarchy, Luana has a storied past despite her young age. Sometime, in her childhood, she was spirited away by her friends from the other side, and lived in the spirit realm for a time.
Three years before the start of the story, however, Luana jumped planes yet again, determined to carve out a mundane life in the realm she was born in, meaning no magic and no transformation. After much hardship, Luana lands herself a job with a company that hoards workers, and delegates them to their work every day-she ends up being a maid under the banner of Kalani City Cleaning and Construction Service, made by the princess of the land herself to help facilitate the newfound demand for workers such as them.
Unfortunately, this proves taxing on our protagonist, as she slowly but surely fights her body and mind to keep her other form at bay-and due to the fatigue caused by the wild magic within, she fumbles on an important job and is fired.
By the time the story starts, Luana is ready to move on and find another avenue for life among mortals-ideally, without having to tap into her skills as a mage. After all, the average mortal doesn't use magic for much of anything, and that is the life she's chasing.
However, as the story goes on, Luana finds that the magic world's roots run deep within her and the events to come-and that if she wants a quiet mortal-like life, she'll have to fight like hell for it.
