#who knows hahah

[cheemken]

all this talk about the champions, but what about diantha's own league? what about the kalos league, her elite four, her gym leaders? what do they think of their champion now?

God the Kalos League was absolutely devastated when they all saw the news of what happened in Galar. Fucking imagine all of em vibing and watching the tournament, cheering for Diantha, and everything happened oh so suddenly. Suddenly Diantha had that edge, suddenly Leon started attacking her, suddenly she called out Yveltal, suddenly they see her eyes full of cold fury that they never thought they'd see, suddenly she's there calling out the Galar League, calling out Chairman Rose, telling the entire world about the threats she and the other champions had gotten from the man himself if they so much as beat Leon. And suddenly... They all started attacking her.

They're all so conflicted, they don't know what to do. That's Diantha, their champion, their angel, their queen, the one who protected all of them at all costs, who made sure they were all safe, who gave them purpose, who welcomed them despite their backgrounds, who encouraged and inspired them with her work. Their Diantha... How... How could they do that to their Diantha?

But at the same time, they were lied to. Diantha had lied to them. About Flare, about Yveltal. An argument broke out between the League, when suddenly Gengar showed up, stopping the feud, and dropped two envelopes across the table each containing a letter, with Siebold seated at the head, always her right hand man in the League. And Gengar left, but not before prompting Siebold to read the letter. And read he did.

He read out loud, for everyone to hear. There were two, but Gengar had motioned to read the one from Chairman Rose first. It read of Rose threatening Diantha of death, not only her, but her brother and even the league as well. Every Elite Four member, every Gym Leader, was mentioned by name by Rose, saying how he'll make sure Diantha would watch them all die one by one and he'll kill her brother last, making sure that everyone she loves dies before her.

Everything became cold, some were gripping the edge of the table, some almost couldn't believe that someone could ever write that, and some almost didn't want to hear the rest of it. Even Malva was surprised to hear that Rose knew she meant enough for Diantha to even threaten her too.

And then Siebold read the other letter, the date was set... Yesterday? What? Unfolding it, it's written in Diantha's own hand writing. She wrote her apologies, wrote why she ever encouraged Lysandre to create Flare, why she wanted to create a more beautiful world, so everyone she ever loved, her brother, her league, her friends, wouldn't have to be hurt anymore, so they won't have to suffer anymore. She said she had to lie to keep them safe, so the plan would go perfectly, but Lysandre was incompetent, she said, and thus the plan failed. If it didn't, then all of this wouldn't have happened too, they could be living much peaceful lives, and people like Rose won't be w them in their new world.

The League still felt conflicted, they don't know if Dia's still lying in her letter or not, but it felt so genuine, it sounds so much like the Diantha they know, to put herself out as a shield to protect those she care about. The silence was dense, and suddenly Malva stood up, hands slamming the table, despite what happened during that night, Diantha cared enough to let her heal her Houndoom, and now Malva understood why Diantha didn't want her to come to Galar to broadcast the tournament, because of what Rose would do to her too. And here she thought Diantha hated her as well. So Malva looked at Siebold, and it surprised everyone, it's been such a while since they last saw Malva being so worked up by something.

"well, it's clear what we need to do, so what are we waiting for?" She raised a brow towards the rest of the Elite Four, questioning.

Siebold sighed, heavy and tired, then he nodded, looking at the rest. "I'm sure Diantha is here in Kalos right now. And this time we'll be there for her too. She gave us support when we needed it, it's time to return the favour."

Drasna then spoke, "right. Our dear Diantha is probably so scared right now too, we'll help Augustine in his search, and together we'll all help her."

"we'll split up, all the Gym Leaders you search within your respective zones, us Elite Four will search the entirety Kalos, we'll find her soon." Wikstrom added.

And the Gym Leaders all nodded, determined to help their Champion too, and they all left, back to their respective zones and cities and towns, telling the people of their own zones what they can do to help, and soon the people followed their lead. Everyone was prepared to defend their own Champion this time, and if she finally shows up, they'd welcome her with the same warmth she showed towards them. No more will their Queen fight these battles on her own.

If Galar wants another war, then Kalos won't be going down without a fight.

seven(ish) sentence sunday

tagged by @diazsdimples @daffi-990 💖

no idea how many sentence this is, but more of the buck driving fic and a convo with Eddie! also, I just needed him to go on a highway and went to google, all I know about us infrastructure and layout is from wikipedia and google maps lmao

prev snippet

“What?” Buck glances at his phone, as if he could see Eddie’s face. Then he looks back at the road. He crossed the state lines around an hour ago, he’s been driving the whole night, aside from that quick nap when he was getting gas, but how does Eddie know? “How-”

“We’re sharing each other’s location, remember?” Eddie sighs. Right. Eddie insisted on that a while ago. Buck had no problem with that, obviously. It’s Eddie. And it’s just in case of an emergency. “What are you doing, Buck?” he asks, concern and confusion audible in his voice.

“I don’t know, Eddie, honestly.” Buck chuckles quietly, bitterly. “I- I didn’t wanna go home. I just felt like going for a drive, and before I knew it, I was on I-10, so I just- kept driving.” he shrugs, as if Eddie could see him. “Why are you checking my location so early in the morning, anyway? Or at all?” he adds, because he’d only check Eddie’s if he couldn’t get ahold of him for long enough to warrant worrying, not in the morning when he could easily just be asleep. Then again, maybe Eddie sees how off Buck’s been lately.

“Uh-” Eddie takes a beat, swallows audibly. “I do that sometimes.” he admits, voice quiet.

“Do what?” Buck’s hands grip the steering wheel a bit harder, eyes on the road. Fortunately there’s not a lot of traffic at this hour, in between cities. 

“Ever since-” he takes a shaky breath. “Ever since you- you died, I check sometimes, just to make sure you’re there, that you’re- you’re alive. To ease my mind without overwhelming you and smothering you with my pointless worrying.” he chuckles quietly. “And, I don’t know, today I woke up and had this nagging feeling to check, to make sure you’re safely at home, and- and here you are, two states over.” he says in that tone that makes Buck clearly imagine him shaking his head with exasperation and fondness. “Buck, if you wanted a road trip, you should’ve just said so. We’d have taken Chris and gone across the- the world if you wanted to.” he says earnestly, and Buck feels tears in his eyes again. Fuck, what is wrong with him? “You know we’re here for you. I’m here for you.”

“Maybe I don’t want you to be.” Buck whispers, not meaning a word.

[cheemken]

with the last ask, is diantha's humanity resurfacing every day or are you also lying to us to make diantha's own lie and manipulation to her league seem believable and genuine–

Maybe ouo

Dia just wanted a sense of normalcy, y'know

Growing up w Mom Carnet, Diantha's childhood was rough, like ofc homegirl's skin got fucking branded, that'd fuck up anyone. But it's her upbringing y'know. Even when she got Sycamore, there wasn't a sense of normalcy in her life.

Back w Mom Carnet, everyday feels like a battle, she couldn't remember the atmosphere being not unnerving and tense, everyday she feels like dying under the constant pressure and abuse that Mom Carnet gave to her instead of actual parental love. But ofc, Diantha endured it, she endured that pain no matter how much she wanted die. And she knows her being branded, being only seen as a tool for her mother's own fame, how her mother always poured liquor on her and blame her for everything in her drunken rage, how she was abused, wasn't right. It wasn't really normal.

That added w the fact that she's an actress and has to work w other actors and such, and how she could just see what kind of horrible people they are under that persona of kindness and generosity. And that isn't supposed to be normal too.

But it's the only thing she knows.

And no one taught her anything else. No one really told her what's actually right or wrong. Not Augustine, not Geeta, not even her own League. Diantha wholeheartedly believes that what she's doing is right, so they can all achieve that normal life she also wanted, that they don't have to worry abt bad people hurting them, especially the one she loves.

And hey she thinks she's much better than those other people y'know, she's the Champion, she has more rights to set standards, she has more rights to use people, and bc she doesn't hit or attack anyone unless they attack her first, or if she's just doing so in defence. And as Champion, as the strongest trainer in the region, her duty is to protect the people of Kalos, no matter how dirty that job may be. But it's fine, she knows there are a lot of people willing to do that dirty work for her.

Lying and manipulating people is one of the only thing she ever knows when interacting w others, bc she grew up w lies and manipulation too, and no one really taught her anything else. That's why she conditioned Augustine to always tell her the truth too, she couldn't stand other people lying to her, and that's where she's a hypocrite. She hides a lot from everyone else, but she has eyes and ears in every corner of Kalos to make sure no one talks bad abt anyone she hold dear in her heart. She doesn't like being used but uses people to achieve her own goals. She doesn't like being manipulated, but she'll dig up every skeleton you ever buried to get the upper hand.

Diantha's life is a mess from the moment she was born until present time, and she hated it, she absolutely hated it bc she knows there's another timeline, another universe, where she and the ones she loves wouldn't have to suffer under corrupt and abusive people and leagues and just everyone who she doesn't deem as worthy

Dia just wanted a sense of normalcy in her life, and the closest she ever got to it was being w Augustine, being w her League, being w her friends and the other Champions. And suddenly they went against her, and suddenly they started attacking her. And she did the only thing she knows how to actually do, to break them one by one, to expose their darkest fears, to show them how powerful she really is. And to the other who are still questioning her ways and her cause, well, a little lie won't hurt anyone, right? Just give them the reassurance they need, the words they wanna hear, and they'll follow her every command. And maybe then, when they realize they're wrong in going against her, she'd spare them mercy, and they too can live in the new, much beautiful world she's going to create.

i can't stand not posting sometimes because these guys are in my head 24/7 so here are some drafts ^^

keep in mind that none of these are 100% set in stone, some things can change in the future so i'm just brainstorming for now :)

[bilaudad]

wipping a wip and sometimes i get distracted by the thumbnails for layers on the side of the screen like

it’s just staring at me and making me giggle

[freedomfireflies]

and then a few minutes after that their hands probably end up gravitating towards each other again and this time they hold hands without saying anything

EEE YES!! But also, eventually it turns into:

"Your ring is scratching my finger."

"Yeah, well you're crushing my pinky in your big-ass palm."

"See, this is why we don't hold hands."

"Fine, then let go."

"You first."

"Are you 3? Just let go."

".........no, now I don't want to."

"Oh my god, I'm gonna push you into traffic."

[chiptrillino]

So I was trying to place who your Zuko in your pinned art post reminded me of, and I realized it was Howl "There you are, Sweetheart. I'm sorry I'm late..." Pendragon! Jee's facial hair was bothering me, too, because I swear I've seen it somewhere else... then I realized he almost-but-not quite has Wolverine "You picked the wrong house, bub"'s hairstyle, which kinda shook me, but I guess you can only really see it with Hugh Jackman cause the man is short and grizzly instead of tall and lean in the comics. Sorry. I'll shut up now.

you know what.... i see it. and i like it!!!! and this is a bit itching in my fingers to be drawn. ... and i really shouldn'T but i also don't want to keep this ask in my letterbox to collect dust... (and again i kinda want to draw it but i need a small block to get other stuff done first... )

so... here is the plan!
