FUN ASK!!! If you were forced to play as your least favorite character in the fandom, who would they be? How would you play them?

OH BOY

I have two categories of least favorite: characters I hate, and characters that are just kind of bland to me. Pokemon thankfully doesn't have a lot of the first category, but PLENTY of the second.

I think if I was gonna RP my Biggest Disappointment character(s), I'd probably go for one of the Plasma Sages that didn't return to B2W2. Looking through the roster on Bulbapedia, Bronius is probably the meh-est of the meh.

I'd try to develop him in a way GameFreak didn't, or make him so canon-divergent that he becomes an OC. Maybe explore his history with Plasma, his relationships with Ghetsis and N, stuff like that.

I wish I had more muse for this guy sometimes.

"I may not be the smartest grunt in Flare, but I've got the most updog."

Send “Examine!” and an item or person and I’ll write an RPG description of it/them.

For example, a stormtrooper mask: “A white mask with a black visor on the front. Putting it on, you realize that the visor isn’t even transparent. How are you expected to do anything competently like this?”

Celosia's posture started to stiffen as the ghosts circle her. She even gasped slightly upon seeing the envelope that Ree had in their pocket. She then cleared her throat in an attempt to regain her composure.

"Well, would you look at that? Lysandre recognizes your skill, and who am I to question his judgement?" Despite her taunting tone, her voice was beginning to crack. "But if you insist on being difficult, one of these days, I may have to test you personally."

"Ah, and by the way, I've been assigned to investigate this island. There's four scientists and four islands of Alola, so even if I left, you'd have to deal with one of my coworkers. They're troublesome enough allies, imagine having them as enemies!"

“Believe me, there’s more huge Pokémon where this came from. Unless you want to get your hopes and dreams gobbled up by my Haunter, I suggest staying away from here.”

Seems like some of the Haunter are going to have to patrol here for the next couple of days. The ghosts giggle, already knowing; they float around the flare executive, giddy at the idea of playing with her.

Ree might be mostly good, these days, but that doesn’t mean they have to be nice to these kinds of people.

“Trust me, I know how many little cult members that ginger haired jackass has.” They pull out a crumpled letter from their pocket — an invitation from Lysandre Labs, based on the seal and the blood red envelope, “and I’m not interested in dealing with any of you. Get the fuck off my island.”

@orreanintrepidness , AKA Alistair Hagen

"In terms of looks, he's at least an 8. In terms of personality, I just don't know yet!"

"Would at least consider smashing, might go out on at least one date if he's interested."

[costofbeauty]

Send my muse a name and they’ll have to say if they find them attractive (looks and personality), if they’d sleep with them and if they’d date them !

It can be another character from their media or from other medias or someone else's muse (feel free to specify the URL). Go crazy!

[costofbeauty]

"Crazy is one way to put it, I suppose." Despite Meda's book smarts, they don't appear to suspect a thing. "The chances are incredibly slim though, I imagine."

Nico's innocently whistling, trying really hard to look like he's not involved in a way that makes it super obvious that he's involved.

“It'd be crazy if he made it out somehow, huh?”

[costofbeauty]

"Do you think Cyrus ever made it out of Giratina's domain?"

[costofbeauty]

"It's time to lighten the mood with some good music!" He's scrolling through his playlist on his Holo Caster. "How do you feel about Imagine Dragons?"

[costofbeauty]

"Microwave ovens in general are an abomination. Nobody knows how to cook anymore."

[costofbeauty]

okay lets play a game: instead of y’all asking me headcanon questions, send me your headcanons for my muse. ( bonus: if i really like it i may make it an official headcanon )

[costofbeauty]

"I don't know where you keep finding these huge pokemon, but I'm almost impressed."

Okay, now she's fazed, but she's not just going to let Ree know that. She even gives them a round of applause.

"You've got guts, I'll give you that." She sticks the vial of lure back into her pocket. "Very well, I won't wake Tapu Bulu. At least, not in your presence."

Celosia puts her hands on her hips. "I'd advise against further insulting Lysandre, though. I'm far from the only person 'sucking up' to him."

“No, what I’m implying is worse than death. Fuck off.”

The gengar looms, grinning all the while — that energy shimmering off of him as he seems to grow, towering over the two. More ghosts start to crawl out of Ree’s shadow — Haunter, all larger than expected, snake their way around and out into the open.

Ree sticks their cane out. A threat.

“I haven’t fucked around with tapu bulu. I don’t got nothin to fear from them. But you stupid ass tourists sure like to think everything is about you. You try and wake that asshole up, and you’re in for a world of hurt.”

Maybe it would be better to just start hitting her with their cane. They’re tempted. Their hands burn.

“Get outta here while you still got the chance. Bulu an’ me don’t have any beef, but they’re gonna be pissed when some no name two bit jackoff tries to wake them up. Especially one that’s sucking up to Lysandre.”

[costofbeauty]

"I don't like repeating myself: you don't have a choice in the matter." Celosia stated simply, looking over her own pokemon. "Drapion, toxic spikes."

A smirk creeps back on her face as her Drapion obeys her command, spreading spikes around any potential exits. "Try to leave and you'll get poisoned." She explains, tapping at her Holo Caster's keyboard until she pulls up a couple of her contacts. "My associates should be returning shortly."

"In the meanwhile, be a good kid and just cooperate, it'll be less painful that way."

There was really no other way he could really explain it. Because that's what happened. At least to his knowledge.

He didn't know about how those things worked, why they worked, or how they worked. Only that they sparked, they made noises.. usually really shrill ones, and 'died' or in some cases completely reset. Other wise.. at least to Altra, things were.. Normal?

Of course, he just shrugged at them finding that 'interesting'.

Still, as they started listing.. what they wanted to do, Altra looked a lot more defensive. He didn't like ANY of what was just said. He agreed to questioning, asking questions.. But nothing further.

He was very much about to bite back, until that grin faded. Hearing the gravity in the woman's voice was not exactly nice to Altra to hear. But he was already on the defensive.

"I only said I would answer questions!" He felt the need to bare teeth, to bite at this point. But he was trying to keep calm, and guarded. And his stance told all about that.

Sure.. his Pokémon were not a threat in any capacity, but he wouldn't be afraid to actually try to do something to at least. Potentially, get out of where ever this was in the first place.

[costofbeauty]

"...Electronics 'freak out' around you? That in and of itself is interesting." Celosia scratches her chin with a curious hum. "And yet, I feel as if that is but one contributing factor."

"However, this is more Aliana or Bryony's wheelhouse. Aliana can examine any malfunctions you may have caused, where as Bryony can take a sample of your DNA and see if she finds anything... unusual. You shall stay within the confines of this lab until further notice."

Suddenly, Celosia's grin fades, forming a far more serious expression.

"That's not a request."

He.. really needed to not just agree to talk to people when they wanted to ask questions. Especially if they decided to you know.. take him somewhere he was not familiar with and begin to drill him with questioning.

Hoo boi..

"I'm just some kid that lives by camping..? I don't know what you mean..?"

Altra looks at the paper, he didn't know what that meant. What was on it.. or.. anything about the words and graphs etched onto it.

But when asked WHAT could possibly cause these readings?

Altra honestly didn't know. Sure, it wasn't likely to be any of his own Pokémon. They were all first stage Pokémon, 'weak' by many Trainer's ideals. And yes.. his Zorua was a weird variant but he wasn't anything special.

Maybe a touch bloodthirsty though.

"I.. don't know? Mean I know stuff that like.. technologically coherent always freaks out around me but I don't know why it happens." It was why he camped in the woods, why he used what many considered 'primitive' as a means of getting by. Campfire cooking, sleeping in a tent, not having any form of light outside of said campfire...

"What do you mean? Like.. more.. questions? Because I honestly don't know outside of it being some weird 'curse' or.. something?"

[costofbeauty]

"Please, if you're going to make death threats, at least use a phrase that implies the finality of death."

Celosia looks over her nails, expressionless. She didn't even glance at the enormous Gengar until a chill ran down her spine. Still, upon seeing the ghost-type, rather than shaking in her boots, a smirk began to crawl on her face as she takes the vial and dangles it in front of herself.

"Oh, I won't do you any harm. Not directly, at least." She cocks her head to the side. "What's a champion to a guardian deity?"

oh, they do not have the patience for this bullshit.

especially not now. Not after having to go through what they did with Lusamine. The line in the sand has already been crossed, and they’re pissed.

with a quick, sharp whistle, their Gengar manifests — fifteen feet tall and just as wide. It towers over Ree, as they scowl, gripping onto their cane with bandaged hands.

“Are you fucking stupid?”

They should just blow her up right now.

That insignia is making them sick, too.

“You got ten seconds to get the fuck away from here before I send your dumb ass to the shadow realm.”

@skullkxd

What is this strange woman doing at the Ruins of Abundance? And furthermore, what's that strange vial she's carrying? Her visor's display flickers as she turns her head towards Ree. Come to think of it...

"It would be a shame if a region's champion suddenly went missing, wouldn't it? So be a good kid and don't tell a single soul what I'm going to do."
