Friendlocke Violet Gijinkas (Part 1/7)

Since the edited episodes are starting to come out, I figured that bc of that and the fact that I've been keeping this in the back burner for a loooong while now, might as well complete all my friendlocke violet gijinkas!! Some are gonna stay the same while others are gonna have slight/ complete redesigns, so please keep that in mind!

I plan on posting them in order by groups of three, so there's gonna be seven parts in total, all of which I'll be linking here when done vvv

(Part Two) (Part Three) (Part Four) (Part Five) (Part Six) (Part Seven)

!! These will contain personal headcanons I have for the cast, little fun facts, and also spoilers for Friendlocke Violet (for both the edited vids and the streams) !!

@saltydkart-reblogs

And that's pretty much it, designs under the cut!

LARK:

HUGE nerd. spent most of his time during the Uva Academy studying different kinds of pokemon as well as different fighting styles he can utilize once he is able to go out on his own journey with his very own trainer! Too bad that didn't really help in the long run...

His entire wardrobe consists of McDonald's related outfits. It's fucking insane. He even has some from long LONG ago that aren't available anywhere else.

The bubble pattern on his hair is able to move and change. Nobody knows how this is possible, not even Lark himself. All Lark knows is that his hair looks incredibly stylish!

Speaking of bubbles, he has the ability to blow bubbles whenever and wherever he pleases!

Often keeps himself extremely clean and gets upset if even a small speck of dirt gets on him, despite this he somehow smells like McDonald's food and axe body spray. Disgusting. He's so cool!

Even after death he still likes to hang around the other team members as a ghost, often getting to know the newer members as well as reuniting with the old ones. Sometimes they see him, sometimes they don't. It usually depends.

SARA:

Due to being a human in her past life, Sara is able to actually speak with the other humans in the pokemon world. However she usually doesn't due to it being seen as extremely weird and out of place. She did slip up once while talking in the presence of Arven, who thought it was the weed making him hear things.

Oinkologne are usually unable to do much with their hooves but Sara spent nights practicing how to knit with her new hooves and now she's able to do it flawlessly. I don't know how she managed to do that but go queen!

When first joining the team she'd often have the urge to eat her food related companions. It was a strange time for Sara, but she managed to overcome it.

When Peppy gets sick, she usually is the one who nurses him back to health. She was a human once so she often is able to figure out whatever sickness Peppy has and treat it properly. I suppose she's like a second mother to him.

The bag she carries with her is full of thread that she collected from various Tarountula she encountered on the journey, as well as little things she knits together in her spare time.

For the most part, Sara forgives... but NEVER forgets.

Did you guys know that Sara has a new YouTube channel? Check it out!

Pastey:

Before joining the team, Pastey was a nameless wanderer. He's been down every road in Paldea and knows almost the entire region (except for Area Zero) like the back of his hand.

He's gotten hurt pretty badly throughout the run (ie. the Mikey fight, the Atticus fight, and ESPECIALLY the final battle), however, he does not gain any (physical) scars from those fights. This is bc he's basically an axolotl, and axolotls are usually able to heal without scarring.

Pastey's "arms" are, to put it simply, mud prosthetics. More info here vvv

Pastey HAS met Mall Bingo once before the run, however, he doesn't recognize her. The only reason he does not recognize her is bc she wears glasses. (You know how people somehow aren't able to recognize Superman bc he wears glasses in his civilian attire even tho his face remains the same? It's basically like that lmao)

Unlike the lightbulbs he eats, the gasoline he drinks isn't really mandatory to his diet. Gasoline is like alcohol to him and he drinks it like an absolute CHAMP.

He goes fishing when there's nothing else to do or when he can't sleep at night. He doesn't do this bc he thinks it's fun or anything, only bc it's a "good time passer" or so he claims. Other members of the team will often sit with him and vent out anything that's troubling them at the moment, and Pastey is always there to listen to them.

And that's pretty much it. Next is Joe, Hannah Ü, and Mykyie!

Squealing because that snippet you posted with Kaz and Jesper and Wylan (for the Orpheus and Eurydice AU) is DIVINE and I'm so excited to read more! I just finished CK and the book hangover is so real.

nonnie omg!! thank you so much 💕🫂 i am having an absolute BLAST writing this and i cannot wait to share it. and the book hangover really is so REAL, i only read soc & ck last september so i am SO late to the party but i just want more 😔 but that’s what fic is for i suppose!

and just for you, a few sentences i wrote today 👀😏

[alphaketoglutaricacid]

As much as i think toshiros complicity is based in his cowardice I do kinda get why he didnt talk to tade about what he thought abt how she views her retainership. Like even if he had that conversation like what could she do other than nod and smile—the power differential between them is huge. I feel something that plays into his conflict aversion is that if he did get upset or hit someone its not like they could hit back without serious consequences. But also he’s been raised in an environment where his comfort has always been prioritized above other ppls wellbeing and he def chooses the easier route A Lot. Like the fact that instead of genuinely engaging w whats going on w izutsumi and tade he ignored all his retainers, let maizuru handle it, and went on some two year spring break dungeon crawling whatever like words cannot describe what an abdication of responsibility this was. That instead of working w his party he went off on his own w his retainers bc he just didnt want them to know he was a noble that much (granted he also didnt think laios was cut out to lead which tough but fair) like cmon man…. But i do think his fight w laios was good for him even tho it was a shitty bitch fight when they rlly shouldve been helping their party revive ppl bc he could have a conflict on equal footing w someone. His whole life hes viewed himself as someone w no power (and the ways this is false esp on the island) but i think in the dungeon he realized he genuinely has a responsibility to his retainers n his actions led to them following him into something really dangerous when they had no dog in this. But also it seems as an attempt to reciprocate, he does seem to have become very observant of other people beyond what is normal bc he doesnt speak much. Culture plays into his clash w laios but i think the fact he’s grown up being so closely observed and in turn closely observes others plays into it too. But its fun how hes always toeing the line between being a spoiled brat, being too passive bc of his own lack of agency, n also that hes genuinely intelligent and has thought a really long time about power.

I think it also gets at why marcilles plan to equalize the races by making their lifespans the same was doomed to fail and also highlights how she can only view other ppls oppression thru her own suffering—that theres always going to be differentials in power that are difficult, but you have to interact meaningfully w them rather than running from them. A simple world w easy solutions like that would be bloodless and false, no?

[babacontainsmultitudes]

I did re listen to the episode where the rogue card reveal happens with Lark in s1 and I gotta say my man Henry kinda whiffed it with that interaction pretty bad.

Oof yeah that whole scene is a rough one on all sides, I do recall feeling a blend of immense pity for Henry but also some level of frustration with him when I first listened to that part! In his defense, it was a very difficult thing to have dropped on him (all the more so given the timing of it all), but I do feel in retrospect that that scene does almost set the stage for how he deals with the twins for the rest of the season after that- being so concerned with repairing his relationship with Lark that he fails to respect Lark's need for space and simultaneously misses Sparrow's calls and need for attention, not to mention inadvertently pushing Sparrow (further) into a mediating position. LIKE THIS BIT MADE ME SOOOOO SAD HENRY I'M BEGGING YOU TO TALK WITH SPARROW ABOUT *HIS* FEELINGS PLEASE-

Aha, anyways. [I lean over in my seat] You have me intrigued anon. These are my immediate (and not particularly developed if verbose) thoughts but I'm very curious as to your own and why, in your opinion, this scene might be a miss on Henry's end. Have you something to add on the Lark side of things, I wonder? In any case, the floor is yours if you wish to elaborate!

bro… if you’re talking kiddads ship requests could I ask for some nick/lark?? your art is so good it makes me feral 💕💕💞💕💞

quality time is taking smoke breaks with your friend who won't leave you alone

[eskawrites]

is it foolish of me to believe that in the celebrity fake dating au several years in the future once the very first fanfic site is up there is a large uptick in erathia sales and tenar/lark becomes a popular ship

not only is it extremely un-foolish of you, anon, it's also completely on point. like, you have no idea. this is something that has been in my notes since basically the beginning of this fic.

like, i think robin in particular has always been a role model for girls since the erathia films, and it's absolutely my headcanon (actual canon?) that there's a small part of her fan base that's just lesbians exchanging knowing looks with each other and quietly wishing her the best.

i also fully believe there was a tenar/lark fandom basically as soon as the second movie came out. after all, nancy and robin put a lot of thought and effort into making their characters' dynamic something more than the usual 'two women fighting over the male protagonist.' (fun fact this is partially inspired by the making of wicked the musical and how glinda and elphaba could've been typical catty opponents and instead became incredible foils who present the show's great love story). combine that with their natural chemistry, and gay/bi women would easily read their relationship as a potentially romantic one. catch a bunch of women in the late 80s/early 90s passing around fanzines a la early Star Trek fandom or something

anyway i could talk about this forever but i probably shouldn't. instead, here's the actual semi-polished lil write up i made a few weeks back:

Tenar and Lark—Nancy and Robin’s movie characters—actually have a bit of a fandom going on and have since the 80s. The fandom only grows when Robin comes out, and then when she and Nancy go public with their relationship (in fact, there’s a bit of a conspiracy for a while in early 1998—Nancy and Robin aren’t hiding anything, but they’re not confirming anything through interviews, either. So when paparazzi photos start coming out of them holding hands and going out together, most of the public is like ‘oh gals being pals’ but a not insignificant number of Erathia fans know what’s up). Anyway, as Robin and Nancy become more serious, more and more people rewatch the Erathia movies and see their characters in a new light. Suddenly all the work Nancy and Robin put into building their characters and creating a three-dimensional friendship between Tenar and Lark translates into the potential for something deeper. Tenar and Lark become one of the most iconic wlw couples, kind of on par with something like Xena on Gabrielle. In the early 2000s, someone asks Scott Clarke what he thinks of Tenar and Lark, and he just chuckles and says it makes sense and he wishes he saw it way back when.

(there are probably some spin-off books, eventual prequel/sequel series, etc and so on that come out--the erathia films were originally based off of the star wars trilogy, after all. and you bet your ass that in all of those, tenar and lark are completely in love)

[dungeon-head]

Dungeons daddies adult children!

[willow-lark]

i bet you can’t guess who i am. anyhow, any stonathan x byler headcanon? (as in how the both couple interact and stuff)

heyhey!! >:) ohhhhh. oh this is a good one. literally for yeeears before i finally got a tumblr i was always like. i'm gonna share ALLL my headcanons. and now that i have one i literally have not done it enough. so, without further ado:

byler headcanons:

mike is really clingy to will before they get together, but once they do the switch flips and it's will who is literally always hanging off him

mike drives, will controls the aux

will draws/paints mike whenever he needs to get out of artblock

mike writes will these super long love letters

will is the flirt, mike is the one who gets flustered

mike confesses/kisses will first

as adults they create graphic novels together

will never stops with the "you made out with my sister" jokes. ever. even when they're married

when they first come out to the byers fam as dating, hop sits mike down, who thinks he's gonna get the shovel talk AGAIN but actually hop is like. call me first if you ever have problems at home

mike actually gets really into planning their wedding. he and karen have it totally handled

stonathan headcanons:

jonathan cooks, steve cleans the kitchen

they r both soooo aggressive parental figures to the party

steve was incredibly dramatic about realizing that he was into guys, it was a whole thing he wouldn't shut up about to robin, whereas jonathan figured it out and was like. yeah that checks out. and moved on with his life

they bond over steve making jonathan watch all of his favorite (bad, but funny) movies, and jonathan making steve listen to all his (pretentious, but good) music

steve calls jonathan "dude" romantically until finally jonathan's like. cut that out. and then he switches to the sappiest pet names imaginable

there's one time that steve n mike r both sneaking out of their respective byers brothers' rooms at the same time and it results in an extremely awkward car ride of steve dropping mike off at the wheeler house

steve is jonathan's muse. he's literally soooo photogenic, okay?

nancy and robin were the ones to set them up, with help from argyle

they would both just. be really good parents if they had any kids. i love them

ask me things on anon!!

[novemberhope]

What is your OCs relationship with their parents or guardians like?

Thanks for the ask - since you didn't specify which ones, I'll just give you all OCs I've introduced on here so far.^^

One Piece

Neri - sadly, her parents were killed. But they had a very close relationship.

Niara - her mother is dead. They weren't always close but became rather close during her illness, when Niara was the one caring for her. Niara's father is still alive but their relationship was never good and after Niara decided to screw her father's wishes and not join the marines, it's only gone more downhill. They haven't met again yet but if they will one day, it won't be pleasant. Azura - she had a good relationship with both her parents who decided to stand up against the world government and got killed because of that. She also had a good relationship with her uncle who became her guardian after that (and introduced her to piracy). Cordelia - her parents are unknown so far (to her), but she does have a good relationship with the family she grew up in. Ellaria - does not know her family Ginny - she did have a loving relationship with her mother, who sadly passed away when Ginny was very young. Her father is an asshole who kind of used her when it suited him and then kind of forgot about her. There is a lot of resentment going on here... Midori - she always loved her family and they loved her back in their own way, but her childhood was pretty problematic. In the end, Midori had to get rid of her chains, so to speak, to finally do something for herself. The past is still on her mind but she's trying really hard to not look back.

Pokemon Lark - they had a good relationship (but sadly never saw each other again after Lark and her friends ended up in another world with no way of returning)

Skye - there are problems in the family, which resulted with Skye staying with her grandmother and cousin often. They don't have a bad relationship though. Calla - is a child of divorce. Her mother is never mentioned at all. She still has somewhat of a relationship with her father but neither of her parents came to celebrate holidays or milestones with her. Galar Leilani - is the apple of the eye to both her parents who are literally doting on her... Ainsley - has a good relationship with both her parents although they clash, too, especially her and her father. But overall, they still love each other. Leilani - has no contact with her parents anymore. They used to have a good relationship when she was young but once Leilani actually followed her own path, that crumbled pretty quickly. Leilani has a very good relationship with her own daughter though (see "Galar" Leilani/AU). Malea - her brother was always the beloved child while Malea was just "there" and got the blame for everything. After finally leaving and finding her own "found family" and eventually family (see Ainsley/AU), she never looked back. Iris - the middle child and well, always in the middle. Not very close to her father, who is not so nice anyway, at the very least she has it better than her younger brother. Her mother was not mentioned so far but they seem to have a good relationship. It's not too bad with her father either as long as she does as she is told. (Too bad she's a free spirit!) Caitlin - presumably gets on well with her mother but is a daddy's girl through and through. She worked in her father's company and is literally his second in command (and as evil as he is in many aspects). Therefore, those two do get along very well...

The Tribe

Hope - as all parents in this universe, they are dead. She was the lonely little rich girl who wasn't very close to her parents but loved them either way. Eden - had a very close relationship with her parents when they were still alive. Jaz - her parents were divorced. She was bounced from one parent to another and learned to be independed pretty quickly. There's some resentmet from her though but her backstory hasn't been fully explored yet. Roxy - her parents divorced and her dad moved away with her brother while Roxy stayed with their mother. Roxy never saw her dad again and resented him for it. She was not very close with her mother either and blamed her for a lot of things too.
