Update on heelys: Emmet shot the idea down immediately :/ something something safety protocol but CLEARLY they're the fastest way to get around(aside from the trains obviously) if there's an emergency

[ask-subwayboss-dash]

If you saw me accidentally reblog something here instead of my main...... No you didn't

[ask-subwayboss-dash]

These train people can't seem to stop falling from the sky and ending up in unfortunate places, huh?

I'm glad you like it!! :D I had thought about drawing them instead but since I'm a little hesitant to post my traditional art and I'm still getting started with digital art, I thought writing was best lol. Hope I wasn't too out of character :'D

Okay so uh I follow @ask-n on my main and long story short an idea started rotting in my brain and I just kinda started writing. It's unedited, it's not canon, and it kinda spoils some of Dash's backstory but I wanted to post it anyway yk?

She should not be helping this strange purple-clad human from the sky.

Of course, she knew that. Humans were not to be trusted. They were creatures who would destroy the world if it meant they would glean something from it. Their machines made of metal and lightning poisoned the air and water. They tore down forests like her own home to build their flat-stone hellscapes. They fought, hurt, captured, and mistreated pokemon. Humans were evil creatures who thought of nothing but themselves, and she had seen this with her own eyes.

She would not allow her pup to become like them. He was important, he had an important destiny that would protect them all. He could not become like the other humans, greedy and cruel. She’d found him young enough that he knew nothing of the humans aside from what she had to tell him–and she had nothing good to say. Inviting another into the forest, giving them shelter or allowing them near her pups at all could shatter that, risk everything.

Still, something about leaving this one out in the storm when they already seemed injured… it didn’t sit right with her. She tried to convince herself that it was because of the Quilava, stubbornly refusing to leave his human Trainer in spite of the rain. He would only go with her to shelter if she carried his human and took her with, too.

“I’m not leaving Dash,” he’d said, and she nearly left him there to deal with the consequences of his own idiocy, but… something about this human felt different. Felt almost like N, like they were important in a similar way he was.

She was either getting soft or stupid.

🟣 🟣 🟣

Dash woke to the sound of rain and the sensation of being mostly dry. She blinked and went to push herself up, wondering when they had fallen asleep. It was when they realized that there were rocks digging into their hands that she realized that something was weird. “Wha… huh? Where…?”

Cinder jumped up and chirped something at her, before booping his nose into hers. “Pff, glad to see you’re here with me, buddy,” they said. She patted him on the head, and he leaned into the touch. “Wherever ‘here’ is…”

Wearily, Dash looked around. They were in some kind of cave, and it was raining purrloins and lillipups outside. Her hat was, thankfully, close to where they were laying. In less fortunate news, there was a sleeping zoroark and zorua just across the cave. Dash’s fingers curled tighter around their coat. Shit, this was a sticky situation. 

Actually, that was putting it lightly. Very lightly. They had no idea where the hell they were or how they’d even gotten there, and their only two options were go out in the palpitoad-strangling rain to wander around and hope to Arceus she could find a pokemon center before she caught pneumonia or something, or stay here and be mauled when the mother(?) zoroark woke up and found an intruder in her den.

Short version? Dash was fucked.

“You sleep for a really long time. Are all humans like that?”

Dash turned around when she heard the voice. “Huh?”

They almost thought she was still dreaming. Standing in front of her was N, but… but it couldn’t be, because he was a kid. Dash knew N as the guy in his late twenties who, some-fucking-how, had managed to become a friend of hers and Hilda’s. Who was, even after everything that had happened, a really kind guy. N was not this kid standing before her with curious eyes and a tense, cautious posture.

“Momma says not to go near you. She says you’re dangerous. But Cinder says you’re really nice! It’s kinda confusing…” 

Dash isn’t sure what to say. Thankfully, the boy keeps talking. “He says your name is Dash, and he says you like battling. But you don’t fight, you tell pokemon what to do. I think that’s weird. He says that the pokemon like you and that they like fighting for you.” He stops abruptly and just stares at Dash.

The silence feels like being buried alive, so Dash breaks it. “I, uh… well, you know my name, can I know yours?” she asks.

He nods. “Mhm! I’m N.”

What the hell.

Still, Dash gives him a smile. “It’s nice to meet you, N. Do you happen to know how I got here?”

“Yuh-huh! Momma carried you here, she said you fell from the sky and that you’d get sick if she just left you! True and I were really surprised, Momma really doesn’t like humans. She says they’re mean and scary and hurt pokemon!”

“...They can be. A lot of them are.” Dash pauses and bites their lip, considering. Then she takes a deep breath. “N? I know you don’t know me at all, but can you make me a promise?”

N tilts his head to the side. “What promise?”

“I need you to promise me that if anyone comes to try and make you leave the forest, you won’t do it. No matter how nice they are, I need you to promise you won’t go with them.”

N giggles. “Why would I wanna leave the forest? I’d have to leave Momma, and True, and all my friends! That doesn’t sound like fun!”

“Just… please?”

“...You look sad. Why are you sad? If it’ll make you not sad anymore, I promise I won’t let anyone make me leave the forest!”
