It's my Birthday!

March 19th and im a year closer to meeting Arceus lucky me! So here is some of my Pokémon simps headcannons as to how they would celebrate your birthday. (I was going to do my top 5 simps but they are all from different things so I'm gonna leave those to myself) There will be no Scarlett and violet characters. They will be in they're own post (There's a lot I like)

Characters: Adaman, Lysander, Raihan, Leon, Cynthia, Volo

💙💎Adaman💎💙

Adaman’s number one rule is that every moment counts. So when it comes to planning your birthday, he makes sure every second he spends planning results in the perfect outcome.

He would make sure to remember all of your favourite things to do and put as many as he can in one day without overdoing it. Adaman was always good at planning. Execution was the problem.

Headstrong and passionate don’t tend to go well together, so no matter how many hours he spends detailing everything. Planning around possible problems; as always something is bound to go wrong.

Surprise bandit attack; Alpha attack; Something happens in the Demand clan; Irida

Will that stop him from making this day all about you? Arceus no! He’s just gonna try harder to make you happy. Even if you're already beaming with the royal treatment he is giving you. Adaman won’t stop until the sun is gone, and he’s carrying you back home.

I would try and pinpoint 1 specific thing he’d do, but Adaman would do basically anything you wanted. Your wish was his command, whatever you wanted to do - he would do. Want to go on a catching spree? Sure. Want to walk along the coastal beach, when do we leave? Want to scale the cobalt mountains to reach the temple of Sinnoh? He’s already racing you up there.

You could drag him to the Alabaster Iceland's and he would follow you like a Fidough. It’s your day and he is going to make damn sure you feel like royalty by the end.

🧡☕Lysandre☕🧡

Lysandre is a busy man. Being the leader of Team flare and running his company and keeping his goal of beauty running smoothly. Time is not something he has! But for his darling's birthday, that's time he is happy to put aside.

He wouldn’t be particularly flashy about what he does for your birthday. He is a gentleman aftercall! Not psychotic at all he's fine i swear. Don’t expect Tengen Uzui level flashy. Lysandre is much more laid back than that. He won’t show you off to the world if you aren't comfortable with it.

His personal life is something he likes to keep behind closed doors, so for your birthday, the most public he would get is taking you out around Lumios, weather that be a shopping spree, a nice conversation at a quiet café. Dinner at a nice restaurant would be a must however. He still wants you to feel special so he will spoil you rotten with gifts. Dudes got the money to burn. 

I can see Lysandre planning something beforehand to keep the paparazzi distracted. Like calling in a favour with a friend high up and having them stage something on the other side of the city so you two can be together in peace.

Once you two get home, he will spend the night with you watching any movie or show you want. Reading with you, just talking with you. Anything you want so long as he can see that beautiful smile of yours. 

Lysandre will go to bed with you but… It's a 50/50 shot if he will still be in bed when you wake up. If he is there, lucky you! If he isn’t there, expect an apology note written quite detailed and a nice breakfast with a simple apology gift next to it.

💗🐉Raihan🐉💗

Battle dates. This man will take you to every single gym tournament and battle he can just to watch your excited face when something awesome happens. Seeing his treasure smile makes him all bubbly and giddy.

But don’t worry, he isn't just going to drag you around Galar showing you fight after fight. He isn’t that stupid. Raihan would definitely take you flying on Flygon so you can see the beauty of Galar from his view. Though his view won’t be on the land below.

For once, he will not mention Leon’s name once! I didn’t know that was possible but here we are. Today is about you, so Leon is flicked temporarily out of Raihan's mind and into the naughty corner.

Photo’s everywhere. Anywhere you two go, he will either stop to take a selfie with you or tell you to go pose somewhere so he can capture the moment. Defiantly will ask you before posting the photo though. Sometimes though he will sneak a photo of you when he thinks you like breath-taking. Something to keep to himself. And don't even think about saying you look bad in one of them, because he will then take a million more to prove you wrong. That or smother you in kisses so you won't say it again.

Raihan will be like Lysander when it comes to gifts. This man will SPOIL YOU! Anything you want, you’d have to grab him by the hood to stop him taking the crowd of people down with him. 

He would 1000% be down for a movie marathon as well if you would rather stay inside. He will have a fort built, snacks at the ready and every movie ready.

💜🎮Leon🎮💜

Bless his soul, he has no idea what to do. Leon would want to take you somewhere really nice he found during his travels, if only he could remember which direction it was in. Then he thought about a nice restaurant you had mentioned wanting to try. Which city was that in again? Perhaps he could take you out to the beach, where was that again?

He would leave it at. “I’ll follow you.” So just drag him around with you and he will gladly follow you and do what you wanna do. Just nothing reckless, he won’t do anything that could get you hurt. Unlike Raihan he would avoid battle arenas. 

I feel like Leon would 100% be down for a gaming day, he’d let you take him to any game store and buy every game you wanted and just play all of them. Card, board, video all of them. Single player or multiplayer he will be right there cheering you on or giving you competitive gals with a smile.

If you're up for it, Leon would ask if Hop could join you two for a little while, not long as Leon does want to spend the day with you, but Hop sees you as a family too.

Dude cannot read. So do not ask him to read anything, he can’t tell the difference between Your and You’re. But if you like reading out loud, he will have his head in your lap listening to you read if that will make you happy. 

Leon would try and make you the best cake he can! We know this man can decorate very well, the baking half is a hit or miss, definitely would have gotten help from an unknown alias. His mom.

🖤🌺Cynthia🌺🖤

Forest date. This woman would give you the royal treatment. Lysander got nothing on this Queen! She will take you anywhere you want for the day. But if you ask her to pick what you do or… a surprise!? She takes that as a challenge. You will most likely wind up on a secluded part of a meadow surrounded by nature.

Tranquil and beautiful, a place for just the two of you to spend time with one another. No champion duties, paparazzi, endless questions of your relationship. Just Her and you. 

Cynthia’s Roserade would make it subtly rain rose petals around the area to add to her love for you. If it’s raining, she has a plan for that too. No rain is going to ruin your special day! Hope you like dancing in the rain because she is already dragging you out to the flower meadows to dance with you hand in hand.

You can guarantee she has a picnic somewhere hidden, Where you will never know that. But this woman has come PREPARED! She’s prepared for everything, and your birthday is no exception.  She has everything, from your favourite snacks, drinks, everything. Even the blanket is your favourite colour. Cynthia even bought a pillow with her that you could sit on so you wouldn’t be uncomfortable if you wanted it.

Like Raihan her Pokémon would be involved. But instead of flying, she would use her Pokémon to put on a show for you. The rose petals from Roserade being just an example. Her Garchomp would show you a fireworks show when night arrived, along with the help of Togekiss.

She won’t spoil you with gifts. Instead she will have one thing she made for you herself. It won’t be very big, but it will show you the love she has for you. Whatever she made you, expect it to be incredibly meaningful.

💛✨Volo✨💛

Cynthia had to get her skills somewhere and this is where. Volo does everything Cynthia does but somehow even more extra. 

If Cynthia gives you the royal treatment, he is giving you the Deity treatment. Man has Giratina at his call, he can literally give you anything! And he will use it to his advantage at every chance he gets. He will use his craftsman skills to make you a bracelet with all of the stones on as a mark of your journey together. If you want him to make another so you can match, oh look he already did! What are the chances?

This man will take you EVERYWHERE! Even places you have never been to before on the back of Giratina, he will show you the world most don’t get to see. The world he will build for you. But he won’t spoil that surprise.

He would definitely make you food, he travels a lot so cooking is a must know skill. So your birthday with him isn't a day, it's a whole week. And every time he makes you something it is completely different. Volo is taking zero shortcuts on this adventure. He may have a Deity on his team, his Deity is sat Infront of him admiring the stars.

Speaking of Stars. Stargazing is a must on every clear night you two get. He would lay his jacket down for you to lay on and look up at the sky together.

Volo would make sure to stop around different areas and tell you about the history there, watching your expression carefully to see the enthusiasm and curiosity on it which just makes him want to try harder to get that smile to stay there. 

He will also use his trade skills to get you something that caught your eye from wherever he took you. Volo may have money but he will use his skills where he can. Giratina isn’t the only benefit he has. Dude is a travelling merchant after all. He has more knowledge than everyone combined. Expect him to show you off however. He loves you more than anything, and wants the world to know that.

Pokéboys and their dicks + extra - male reader intended

Characters: Blue, Red, Morty, Brawly, Norman, Adaman, Volkner, Marlon, Kukui, Raihan + bonus charas (- All characters aged up!) Top!Characters x Bottom!Reader word count: 2.1k Kink warnings:pubic hair, marking and hickeys, scent kinks (INCLUDING MUSK AND SWEAT!!), armpits, feet, body worship, public, size diff Nsfw / MDNI ~ amab m!reader / FDNI

Blue

Blue's quite slim, so his dick is loooong

Solid 8 inches, but not very thick

Uncut, with a few veins

He loves when you play with his foreskin using your tongue

He's got a bit of a bush, not too wild but enough to stuff your nose when Blue pushes you down on his whole dick

Blue's balls aren't massive, but they sag just the right amount

His dick matches his attitude, he acts big so his dick is big

His attitude can switch up in the bedroom though

Blue can go from a cocky bastard to whimpering into your ear, acting like he needs your body, your kisses to live

But when his attitude is carried into the bedroom, you two go on for a while, Blue won't stop until your ass is imprinted with the shape if his cock

He also loves to kiss you all over, and Blue fucking loves it when you kiss and lick him everywhere

Especially his muscles

His ego gets a massive boost when you call him strong or manly while kissing his strong arms or abs

Red

Red's quite average

Around 5-6 inches, but he's very girthy

Fucking hell he fills you up so good

Red likes to keep his hair down there tidy, so he only has a very thin bush if you can even call it that

His balls as tight but big, makes sense because Red cums a LOT

Red covers you in cum every time the two of you fuck, you love it tho, especially after blowing him

And Red fucking loves to watch you choke and play with his copious amounts of cum on your face and in your mouth

You'd look gross to anyone else but to Red you couldn't look any hotter

He's quiet during sex for sure, like always

But it just let's you hear his primal noises that me makes while he fucks you hard

You can just hear heavy breathing and grunts into your ear while Red listens to your sexy moans

It's a win-win situation

Morty

Morty is massive

His dick suits his build as well, having a sleeper build you wouldn't expect his dick to be huge

He must of used some ghost voodoo to get that fucking huge

He's easily 10 inches, but he isn't crazy thick, so your not getting slowly killed with each of morty's thrusts but you are getting fucked within an inch if death for sure

His dick isn't very veiny, just one or two, but his tip is suuuper sensitive

Morty loves it when you focus on his dickhead, and he precums so much it's almost funny

His balls sag a lot, so he likes it when you cup them and play with them when you blow him

He's also wild with his public hair, it tufts out of his saggy bottoms all of the time

And it smells so musky whenever you blow him

Morty also fucking LOVES marking you and giving you hickeys when you fuck

In the most obvious places but also in private places that feel good for you in the moment

He likes to see how deep he can make the shade of purple before you whine in pain and pleasure

Bite marks all over your shoulders and thighs

And in turn you scratch his back until you almost draw blood, which turns Morty on soooo much

Brawly

He's quite average, just under 6 inches and a normal thickness

But Brawly doesn't care if he doesn't have the biggest dick ever, he REALLY makes it work

Since he's always working out in some way, Brawly's balls are always super saggy, and he's always sweaty in the best way

He has a big thing for smells and you smelling him

His public hair is out of control, as well as his armpits, he loves to push your head against his hairy regions and have you bath in his musk

He smells so manly it turns the both of you on

Brawly also has a thing for his feet, he likes to have then out as much as he can

He always suggests you lick and worship them, and on special occasions you do and he cums so quick

All of his body smells manly in such a good way, from top to bottom

Norman

His dick is above average, solid 7 inches

He's quite thick too, makes sense for his muscular build

His balls are slightly saggy and hairy

His whole body is covered in thin black hair, very manly

His pubes are quite well trimmed, kept in a nice shape and thin

Norman loves to hear you gag on his dick, and he likes to his pubes stick to the side of your mouth while he fucks your face

Rimming is a huge thing for Norman too

He likes to get up in your whole and make it his

His tongue is so thick as well, and so wet and warm

Norman basically fucks you with his tongue and enjoys the sounds you make while he tastes you

He also fucking lives blowing you, your dick smaller than his in comparison, he likes to smell your dick and engulf it in his mouth

Norman listens to your whines and out if control moans while he slobbers all over your dick

Somehow managing to take your whole dick AND your ball in his mouth

It feels so incredible, especially when he rims you, then moves to blowing you while fingering your now loose and wet hole

Norman also fucks like a mad man, like a dog in heat

His dick pounding your prostate, forcing your tongue out of your mouth while you slobber on his pillows

Adaman

This man is big

Not massive

But very much enough to go above and beyond

He's of course uncut (doubt they did circumcisions back then)

His foreskin isn't tight at all but it's soo long

Also, he obviously doesn't shave, so he's a monster all over

Adaman's body hair is wild, his armpits are bushy, his arms and legs are naturally littered with thin blue hairs and his pubes are a fucking forest

His balls are always saggy and hang loose under his garments since Adaman is almost always commando

His dick is also quite thick, enough to make you scream his name

Which Adaman loves

He's got quite the thing for public sex

There weren't any laws against that, so he's used to having a small audience from time to time

And he loves to have others hear how he makes you sound

His dick also REEKS of his musk, and it intoxicates you every time you blow him

He loves to watch as you smell him like he's some drug, his dick always boiling hot and moist with his sweat and smell

It fucks you up so good

Volkner

His dick is just over 5 inches

His balls are tight, and no matter how much he tries to maintain his pubes they always get out of hand

Volkner is cut and his dick is veinless, but that doesn't mean he isn't sensitive as HELL

You're the light of his life, since he's almost depresses, you make his life better

In a normal and in a sexual way

Volkner can only get it up for you, which turns you on so much

And don't let the fact that his dick is below average, or that he's sensitive fool you

This man is a Dom all the way!

He praises you when you blow him and orders you to strip at any given moment

His hands are rough and you have plenty of marks from his spankings

His muscular build really helps as well

He let's you grab onto his built arms to ground yourself while you cum

And he likes to watch you lick your cum off of his abs afterwards

Everything this man does sexually had a dom undertone

Marlon

Pretty average dick, solid 6 inches

7 on a good day

Marlon's curtains very much do match the drapes, his pubes are also shaped similarly to his hair

His dick isn't tanned, so it's quite funny to see how his tan cuts off and his dick is shinning white and pinkish

But fuck is his tan soo hot, his tan lines so erotic

Marlon's balls are always tight too, being in water constantly really not helping him there

His dick is smooth with few veins, and Marlon is sensitive all over

Not just on his dick but his whole body

This man whines and whimpered when you kiss him all over

It's so hot, especially when your riding him and Marlon is whimpering in your ear

Your name all he can say

Kukui

Fucking hell this man is massive

Kukui is a solid 10 inches and fucking thick too

His dick is dark and veiny, both your hands can't fully cover it

It suits his huge body too, his muscles absolutely out of this world

Which really sets Kukui up nicely for his thing for body worship

He adores it when you worship his Greek god of a body

He flexes all his muscles, arms behind his head while you lick, kiss, smell and praise your boyfriend's body

He call you names from time to time which turns you on more while worshiping his body

He likes to sit you on his lap, his huge thighs holding you up while his rough, big hands roam your body

And holy fuck Kukui loves to fuck you in positions in which he can he his dick force your belly to bulge

His massive cock making a slight bump in your stomach while he ravages you

The view turning him on more and boosting his ego

Kukui pushes on the bump, making you writhe in pleasure and moan loudly

The sight is one that he'll remember forever, Kukui lives his massive cock and so do you

Raihan

He's just above average, a good 7 inches

Uncut and veiny with loooooose foreskin

Raihan fucking loves it when you lick his veins and under his foreskin

He's a cocky cunt with a huge ego, and that translates very well for sex with this guy

Raihans super into worship and praise

He loves to fuck after matches he's won, in the locker rooms, making you lick him clean and smell his "manly, winning scent"

He pushes you onto the ground and steps on your face and dick with his bare, dirty, sweaty feet and laughs as you whine and moan and lick

Raihan also fucking loves to make out

His tongue toys with yours and forces whines out of your mouth that make his dick twitch

His balls as always saggy, he likes to make you lick them and smell them, placing them in your face and telling you to worship his manly musk

His pubes are never cut, he loves to watch you struggle to breath with them stuffing your nose and likes to see them stuck to the side of your mouth as you swallow his cum

Raihan fucks you so rough and hard, making you worship his body while he fucks you

But he isn't horrible, he praises you a lot and worships your body as well

Running his hands over your body and calling you beautiful while he re-arranges your guts

He calls you pretty, lifts your arms and smells you all over, he likes to make you his

Your smell is his, your body, your voice

He fucks you like a rag-doll that only belongs to him

Short Bonuses:

Gladion (aged up!!!!!!!!)

Below average, poor guy is barely 5 inches

But he makes up for it by being good with his hands and tongue

Quite a lot of public hair, slightly darker than his blonde hair

Leon

He's just a bit bigger than raihan (so fucking massive)

He's thick and veiny, and loves to bottom out inside you, watching you squirm and writhe in pain that slowly turns to pleasure

Guiding you through it with sweet words and praise

Milo

Only around 6 inches, but fucking hell is this man thick

He apologises so much, but he needs to be inside you

He watches tears fall from your eyes from the pain and says sorry over and over but his hips keep pounding into you

His dad body crushes you while he fucks you senseless

Jacques

Very average, 6 inches

He's uncut with a loose foreskin and saggy balls

His pubes are out of control and he rarely showers

So he smells so fucking musky and manly

His dick tastes so good you can never get enough

And he's so shy about it, he apologises and blushes like a little sub when you blow his dick and swallow his cum

[justlwrites]

Some of my hcs for pokemon characters and their love language(Male)

Raihan :: Gifting

I feel like he has alot of money, so he'll probably like to spoil you with anything you want

Leon :: Quality Time

As a champion(Lets ignore the protagonist aka you beating him) he doesn't have much time to spend with his s/o, so any free time he has, he'll probably spend it all with you

Hop :: Words of Affirmation

For Hop, I feel like he's to focus on beating Leon and becoming the champion that sometimes he forgets all about you, so sometimes you overthink and starts to feel insecure, but of course best boy Hop here will always tell you that you are still one of his top priorities

Volo :: Physical Touch

I see him as a very flirty man. Yeah, thats the only reason

Arven :: Quality Time

Since when he was little, he never spend time with his parents, he'll probably wanna spend all his time with you so replace that emty slot in his heart where his parents shouldve been

Gladion :: Acts of Service

Tho his family is rich, he doesn't wanna be associated with his family at all, so he rarely gives you gifts. But I still think he'll like to do nice things for you, like maybe, playing with your pokemon if you're busy, taking care if you when you're not feeling well, etc

N :: Acts of Service

Idk, I really dont know why I think he has that LL but i just think it suits him

why tf did i make his

[nekoanything]

“I…don’t hate you.”

I would like permission to draw sekikai fanfic of @kittyk888

[volos-togepi]

PLA boys finding out you’re pregnant with their child

i love these boys and i will die on this hill

Adaman 

oh he’s so happy

a little surprised at first

but ultimately he’s so ready for this new journey with you

not like you haven’t been planning this or anything… 

and he’s sure to ask how you’re feeling

because your thoughts are more important to him

“Let’s talk about it.”

he’s so comforting

and he’s so good at helping you stay in a good headspace

compliments are a constant

and if you’re ever feeling down or uneasy, he’s there to support you 

he’s there EVERY step of the way

he works on how he presents himself as a leader

and he thinks about how this role will compliment the other

he’s so helpful at home

and he loves to cook for you

“Just relax, y/n! I’ve got it.”

you both have so many conversations about your pregnancy

and you bet that he’s been asking around for parenting advice

knowing he’s becoming a father absolutely gives him an ego boost

and you know he’ll be the best dad a kid could have

Volo

“Come again?”

he’s perplexed

scared even

he’ll force a smile to please you

but he’s DEFINITELY not ready to be a father

while he’s traveling, he’ll often think about the situation 

and mostly cons come to his mind

he’s TERRIFIED to talk to you about it

but he’ll eventually speak up

“I just don’t think I can be the father you want me to be; the father this child deserves.”

you both chat for HOURS

and you both cry about the situation you’ve found yourselves in

but one day, it hits him

HARD

he’s traveling, and he thinks about how wonderful it would be to have a daughter

someone to protect; to share his countless stories with; to bring home little trinkets or flowers and get a squeal of joy in return

not that he doesn’t already have you, but…

that switch just flips

he RUNS to your home and immediately takes you in his arms

he’ll apologize SO many times, bawling into his hands

“I want this. All of it.”

he won’t stop holding you for a moment

because he needs to let you know how much he loves you

and he has to make up for all the time he’s been away somehow

he’s eager to cook for you; to clean for you

literally whatever you need, he’s there

and he doesn’t plan on leaving anytime soon (if at all now)

Melli

oh he’s ecstatic 

Melli only wants the BEST for himself

so clearly, you are the best

and this baby…

“This is SO EXCITING!!!”

this gives him so much more to brag about

he’s already got a list of names written out

and it’s LONG

he talks about how much he wants this

and how much he loves you 

#1 hype man

he makes you feel so good about yourself

and you better believe he’s telling everyone how excited he is to be a father

he’s actually REALLY attentive during your pregnancy 

because he wants you to feel your best each and every day

you and Adaman both try to talk to him about how gross babies are in the beginning

because you know how easily disgusted he is

and he clearly doesn’t listen

“Blah blah blah… Babies are fun!”

he’s just wayyyy too excited

after a while, he does start to have doubts about his role as a father

and you assure him that it’s okay and that he’ll be great at it

he learns and grows so much during your pregnancy

his narcissistic qualities tone down a bit (but not too much)

he just wants to be the best he can be for your family

and he’s so eager for that next milestone to come

[smashingdollz]

Hello! Can you do something with Adaman who has a shy gn s/o?

~ dykeobsidianblock.txt

˚ ༘♡ ⋆｡˚

hello! of course i can do that! thank you for the request! Ill do some HCs and a short story!

-hes always so patient with you, he just happily stares at you while you quietly speak your mind. he absolutely enjoys listening to your voice when you speak, and whenever people are too loud and talk over you, he speaks up for you and or tells them to be quiet so you can speak. and whenever you stammer and stutter he always assures you to take your time and that hes listening.

-he teases you a tiny bit, not anything major. just whenever he sees how nervous you act around him despite being together for so long he just cant help but smile and say, "I find it so cute how im still able to make you so shy around me even though we've been together for a while"

-as a shy person i tend to get extremely nervous and freak out in public spaces at times if its to crowded or loud. so whenever that happens and Adaman's not there to comfort you whenever you start freaking out and getting nervous, his Leafeon can somehow sense it and comes to find you and calm you down. it rubs its head against you releasing a calming smell that you love, (i heard that Leafeon is able to release smells from their leaves, so why not add it in). and when he sees the two of you together he sincerely apologizes for leaving you alone before he gently hugs the both of you.

-hes just always encouraging you, because he understand that being shy can sometimes lead you to feeling insecure of self conscious. so every time when you're feeling insecure of self conscious because of how you act hes always there to say otherwise. "its fine to act like this, its natural, and its okay. i love the way you act, it doesn't bother me at all. i couldn't imagine not spending the rest of my life with you, and only you" and whenever you make an attempt to be more outgoing in public he always praises you no matter what, even if you fail or had an awkward interaction with someone hes proud of you.

-Meli is one to definitely make comments on your shyness(if you stammer/stutter i feel like that something he'll mock you for), and some of the Diamond Clan members are too. Adaman makes sure to scold them publicly, because hes not letting anyone talk about his partner like that. and he spends the rest of they day with you making sure to push all your worries away.

(some small headcannons)

-when youre nervous he hold your hand. and he doesnt care if it gets sweaty, he'll smile at you as you wipe your hands on a cloth and he'll intertwine his hands with yours once again.

-if you dont want to talk or go out he dioesnt force you too, he'll happily spend the day with you at home. even if you protest and tell him he can go out he'd still stay with you.

-all of his Pokemon love you and are so defensive over you. whenever someone is making your uncomfortable they always get in a defensive stance.

˚ ༘♡ ⋆｡˚

You and Adaman walked around the shopping district in Jubilife village together with Leafeon close to the two of you, and you close to him as he observed all the interesting items for sale. As the three of you were about to leave a booth to look at another both the three of you heard a set of voices calling out to you guys. You guys turned around to see, Akari and Rei, members in the Galaxy team. Adaman smiled and crossed his arms, "Oh hey, Akari, Rei, is there something wrong?" The two bowed and greeted you before doing the same to Adaman and answered his question.

"Camander Kamado is requesting your presence in his office, he has something he would like to discus with you" Rei said firmly. "And we came to ecort you!" Akari happily said. Adaman nodded at the two before facing you, "I have to go for a bit, but it wont take long okay? As soon as im done il come and get you straight away, okay. You'll be fine, you got this!?" You lightly gripped the fabric of the outfit you were wearing, "Oh.. uhm.. yea-yeah. Thats okay.. I'll be okay..!" You gave him a shy, yet encouraged smile. "Of course you will" He placed a hand on your shoulder and smiled. "Alright then we're off, i'll see you soon!" You silently stared as the four walked off to where they were needed. You were a bit nervous since Leafeon went along, but you were confident in yourself that nothing bad would happen.

You silently made your way to a nearby table and sat down and observed the scenery, theres were people shopping around, walking and chatting, eating, and some people were even just walking around with a Pokemon. Out of nowhere your breath began to hitch and you began slightly shaking, as you tried to calm yourself down someone suddenly pumped into you as they were walking by, "Oh, im sorry" they quickly say before before walking away, barley even caring that they bumped into someone. "Ah- uhm.. its oka-" you were cut of when you heard a piercing sound, you quickly covered your ears not wanting to hear anymore. You looked around a saw a group of children running around together screeching and laughing as they chases each other around. And the appearance on people started to freak you out more.

You began panting heavily and your put an immense force on your ears with the palms on your hands as a way to block out the sound. You closed your eyes and placed your head on the wooden table and moved your hands to your hair gripping it. You stayed like that for a while until you felt something rub your leg. You lifted up your hurting head and looked down, you saw Leafeon. You frowned a bit and teared up, thats when Leafeon jumped up on your legs and started rubbing its head on you, releasing its sweet aroma that always calmed you down in these types of situations. Tears brimmed your face as you embraced Leafeon into a hug. You were finally able to breath right and the shaking in your body has gone down, you closed your teary eyes and rested your head against Leafeons body.

The two of you stayed like that for a while until it was time for Adaman to return. "Y/N my dear, are you alright? Leafeon ran off and-" he got cut off as he saw the two of you holding each other on a bench, he immediently knew what happened. he made his way over to you, "Oh dear, Y/N are you alright?" You slowly lifted your head and opened your tired eyes to face him, "Im okay.. im just... tired..." you said quietly. Being tired after these things happy was normal for you, youre body was tired, your head hurt, and whenever you finish crying you always get possessed by sleepiness. He engulfed the two of you in a tight, yet warm embrace. "I know I know, c'mon lets go" he kneeled down and showed you his back, waiting to you to get on his back so he could carrie you back home.

You unwrapped your arms from Leafeon and it jumped up from your legs and onto the ground. It was proud of itself, proud that it saved you. You stood up and placed yourself onto his back, gently wrapping your arms around his neck. He stood up and wrapped his hands around your legs to make sure you were secured. "Lets go home" he said as he began walking, Leafeon let out a happy cry as it followed the two of you home.

aaaa, sorry this took a bit of time, but i do hope you like it!

∾ 【 Rouge Anon 】

A rare request from a rare anon. As you wish.🖤

🔞18+Only!MDNI🔞

CW : ‘good boy’ is said once, afab reader,

-

-

-

You had asked so sweetly, if you and your beloved could have the photography studio to yourself.

For some loving pictures, of the hero of Hisui and their diamond clan leader of a boyfriend.

With Adaman behind you as you asked, how could Mr. Dagero refuse such a request? It would be an honor for you two to use his studio!

You were sure to pay the man nicely for it too.

Especially with how you’re going to ruin the black screen.

Adaman had been hesitant at first, but the longer he thought about what you had said, the more excited he got.

His mind kept relaying your words.

And he wouldn’t mind exploring a little.

“You look so beautiful like this.”

He breathes out, one hand behind the bench he’s sitting on, the other on your head.

You’re sat so prettily between his legs, on your knees in front of him.

The camera just a little ways away, close enough for him to push the button, but far enough to capture the lewd scene.

His pants pulled down just enough to free his cock.

Adaman isn’t even sure how many pictures he’s taken thus far, but he can’t wait to see.

You pull your lips off him, licking up any leaking cum, moving one hand from his thigh to stroke his throbbing length.

“I can’t wait for you to see yourself, such a mess you are. Fuck, you’re so hot drooling like this.”

He hadn’t even realize his spit was trailing down his chin, Adaman licks his lips, just as you do. You kiss his tip, chuckling at his gasp.

He leans his head back, greedily taking in air, only to choke on his moan as you slowly take his cock back into your mouth, gently sucking your way down.

His legs shake, twitching as he fights the urge to squirm.

“Fuck! That feels s-so good.” Adaman whines, pressing the button to the camera, a loud shutter echoes.

You pull him out of your mouth once more, his hand sliding off your head, ignoring his pathetic whimper and stripping from your tights.

Adaman looks up just as your kimono falls open, and sarashi wrap being cast aside.

“Go on, love.”

His eyes looking between your face, and your bare chest, awaiting your next words.

His breathing hics, watching you crawl onto his lap, straddling his hips. His leaking cock pressed right up against you, your kimono hanging off your shoulders.

“Why not take a picture?”

The loud shutter makes you smirk.

“Good boy.”

You lift up, hovering over his dick and longing it up with your dripping hole. Adaman moves his free hand to your hip, panting at just the sight of you, the feeling of your wet heat rubbing his tip.

“Please, please I need to hold you.”

He hands you the button to the camera, the cord shaking with his swift movements. You giggle at how desperate he is, but taking it regardless.

His tip catching your hole was all he needed. His hands on your hips, steadily pulling you down, pulling your ass flush against his hips,

“Oh, so good! You always take me so well. Shit.”

He breathes out, trying to let you get use to him.

But you’re ready, just wanting more, wanting to capture his gorgeous face in a picture.

In Adaman’s foggy mind, he didn’t hear the camera go off, he could only focus on your wet cunt around him.

He’s a wonderful sight, covered in a thin layer of sweat, his face coated pink, and brown eyes unfocused.

The clan leader trembles, feeling you grind down on him.

“Please, Adaman? Please fuck me already! Make me cum-!”

You squeal as he bucks his hips up. He moans, grip on your hips tightening, only to lift you up and slam you back down.

“So so good! Fuck! Taking my cock so well.”

He doesn’t want to wasn’t anytime, wanting to enjoy all you offer you. His hands won’t let you move, only holding you in place so he can piston his dick inside you.

You dig your nails into his shoulder with one hand, and take as many photos as you can with the other.

It’s getting harder and harder to focus, only thinking of your lover thrusting into you, slamming against your sweet spot.

“O-oh! Oh almighty! S’much!”

Adaman looks up at you, taking in your slutty face, how you drool, how your eyes flutter and roll back, he’s addicted.

Thanking the almighty for the time given to him.

“Adaman, I’m gonna- oooh! M’gonna cum!”

He leans up, slamming his lips against yours, one hand coming up to hold the back of your head in place, his tongue slipping into your mouth, muffling your shrieks.

He jackhammers his cock into you, desperate to fuck you full. Your moans vibrate against his lips as do yours.

Your pussy squeezing him, milking him for all he’s worth as he pumps his cum into you, filling you up with load after load of of his hot cum.

Adaman pulls away from your lips, with a string of saliva connecting to you.

“You’re stunning.”

Is all he could say.

Mesmerized by your enthralling beauty.

Your shudder, mewling softly.

“You cum so much…I can, I can feel it leaking out.”

The clan leader chuckles, leaning his head against your chest. You run your fingers through his hair, cooing softly at your boyfriend.

Looking over to the camera, you see just how many photos you two have taken, and just how many are on the floor.

Adaman lazily looks over to do the same.

His breathing stuttering at the sight of the few facing up.

Making you squeak, at feeling his cock twitch inside you.

Oh.

Oh he likes this a lot.

“We are going to need to do this more.”

Oh the monster you’ve created.

In the Weeds

If reading things on Tumblr isn't your favorite, I also have it posted here on AO3. This piece was inspired, once again, by the amazing work of Monsoon-of-Art and the PLA Mer AU. I wrote this in like two hours because I've been thinking about it nonstop. Did some minor editing because I noticed a few things were logically inconsistent or spelling/grammar was off.

Summary:

Akari gets a little lost and overhears a conversation.

It was official, Akari had lost Ingo.

To be fair, it wasn’t entirely her fault. He told her to stay put and he should have known better than to trust her when she was such a poor swimmer. When the current wasn’t bullying her around, she was having issues getting the motion down that Ingo had been patiently trying to teach her. She knew how to swim! … When she had legs… Well, if she was being honest with herself, she wasn’t the best at swimming when she had legs either. Regardless, she found herself clambering over rocks and pulling herself along by grabbing the long kelp strands.

The tides were changing. She didn’t know how she knew that exactly – maybe the pull of the water on her body as it receded back out to sea, but she was still too far from shore for her liking. Ingo was a smart - … guy wasn’t the right word. Merman? Fishman? Akari didn’t have the right terminology yet. He was smart, he would eventually find her, it was like he had a sixth sense for her. He knew that she needed to get back to shore within a certain time frame in order not to arouse suspicion. He knew where she would be headed. It would all be fine.

Or it would all be fine if the ocean wasn’t trying to suck her back in. The riptide she had accidentally found herself in during her exploring and flung her out too far, just beyond the safety of the kelp forest that Ingo had been stashing her in when she decided to visit. She had to keep moving. She had to keep in mind that she had to go up for air a lot more frequently than Ingo had to, hand over hand climbing up the kelp until her head broke the water. With those mandatory breaks, it gave her an indication of just how much further she needed to go and how much time she had left. Akari’s answers this time were a lot further than she would have liked and not long enough.

She took in a deep lung full of air, feeling the unnatural way her lungs seemed to expand past what she thought would be her normal capacity, and plunged beneath the surface. If only the kelp weren’t so slimy and flimsy and her hands so pruny from her duration in the water, she could just keep pushing herself to each strand and keep close to the surface, but everything in the ocean seemed eager to keep her there without her guardian present. Down by the bottom, she began to pull herself along again.

That was, until she heard arguing through the gloom of the forest. She paused, her ears twitching in the direction of the sound keenly and her curiosity tugging her in the direction of the voices. The words were undefined at the moment, but as she drew closer, Akari saw two unfamiliar mers having quite a heated discussion amongst the kelp.

Akari, just as she thought when she first saw Ingo, thought they looked simply magnificent. The smaller was some sort of seal, her brown fur ruffled in irritation and her dark, inverted eyes narrowed as the larger, some sort of bluish fish, seemed to roll his eyes at her like he didn’t have the patience for her. He confirmed it with what he said next.

“You’re not taking this seriously, Irida. And I hate when people waste my time.”

“This is deadly serious, and you know it, Adaman!”

He raised his eyebrow skeptically, folding his arms over his chest and leaning in close to the one he called Irida.

“The humans haven’t bothered us in the slightest. Why should Diamond clan be concerned with any plight of Pearl clan?”

Akari had to squelch a gasp and nestled herself back into the safety of the kelp. She knew who these two mers were, even if Ingo had only mentioned them in passing, and Akari knew she should leave because the clan leaders had yet to know of her existence, but they were talking about humans… Did they mean the Galaxy Team? She knew she should move, but she couldn’t, her fingers inadvertently curling tighter around the kelp.

Irida’s fingers curled in the water in a strangling motion, like she so wanted to choke Adaman for saying something stupid and she said through sharp, gritted teeth,

“Just because they haven’t infringed on your space yet, doesn’t mean that they won’t. The only reason I suspect that they haven’t disturbed you in the way they have my clan is because the water around your settlement is so brackish and silted that they can’t even find you.”

Adaman jerked back, ears pinned back and eyes shirking down to pinpricks at the slight. His thick, muscled tail twitched restlessly in the water, stirring up sand and ruffling the kelp wildly, Akari held on tightly. She could see his mouth flapping and gasping, but no retort came out immediately, and it seemed to make him more agitated.

“Maybe if your warden wasn’t so hasty with his actions, then perhaps the humans wouldn’t be acting quite so aggressive in your territory.”

He finally spat back; the words laced with venom. Adaman was leaning in so close to Irida that he was practically nose-to-nose to her, a smirk of satisfaction curling his lips as she swiftly backed off. There was a tense moment of silence, Akari daring to peek her head out a little more to witness Adaman regain some of his composure.

He lifted his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose, eyes scrunching shut before he exhaled slowly. Irida also seemed to take this time to recalibrate, eyes falling closed as she patted her cheeks almost as if she was giving herself some sort of mental peptalk.

“Are your pups okay?”

Irida whipped around like she hadn’t expected him to ask something like that, Akari got the feeling that it was an unusual question to be asked – but especially by Adaman.

“They’re fine… Hungry mostly.”

Adaman seemed to wince, mouth quirking with guilt, even if the surveyor didn’t know why. Ingo was always stressing the importance of pups and keeping them safe to Akari, it was one of the major reasons he cited for saving her. She looked so much like a helpless pup bleeding in the water... Akari hadn’t realized she had made a noise when she remembered the occasion, but her heart stopped when she saw Irida’s head swivel in her direction, her ears at attention and her eyes as sharp as the claws on her hands.

“Did you hear that?”

Did she almost sound grateful for the abrupt change of subject? Adaman, even if he masked it a little better, also sounded relieved as he said,

“No, but I see you trying to change the subject from the topic at hand. Diamond clan doesn’t intend to do anything about the humans. They haven’t bothered us, so we needn’t take any sort of retaliatory actions.”

Irida was still looking in Akari’s direction, her tail shifting in the water with a natural ease and looking amongst the rocks for the source of the noise she had heard. Akari buried her face in her scarf, edging back slowly as Irida turned back to give one more devastating blow before swimming off in a huff.

“Are you so unaware of your own surroundings that you don’t understand how dire the situation is, Adaman? Your tune will change once they start to take your food and start to get too close to your home.”

Her words were bitter. Adaman frowned while he watched her go, Akari could sense the gears turning in his head at Irida’s words and she quietly tried to move away. Never had she wanted Ingo at her side more than in this very instance. She wished swimming came as naturally to her as did to either of the two clan leaders who she was trying to evade, because she needed to get out of there right away.

The kelp rustled and swayed around Akari as she climbed up the long strand, keeping low until she thought she was a safe enough distance from the lingering mer, but she realized her mistake when she poked her head out from the refuge of the dense column (she didn’t realize how long she had been sitting and listening until her lungs began to burn in protest). The water column, usually teaming with small darting fish and the occasional sea otter, was utterly devoid of life. Akari knew that meant a predator was around, but she didn’t realize what kind of predator that meant.

Her immediate instinct was to hide and stay hidden until the danger had passed, but she didn’t expect the swiping hand that snagged her away from her kelp. She yelped, this was not the familiar hand that gently guided her around in this forest, but it was equally gentle with her. Akari was swung around to face Adaman who appraised her silently, holding her fast as she squirmed. The words escaped Akari before she knew what she was saying.

“D-Don’t eat me!”

Adaman blinked, his brown eyes softening and his voice considerable gentler when compared to the conversation she just overheard.

“Eat you? Who would give you such a funny idea?”

His expression changed subtly when he noticed her sniffling and trying to shrink in his hand. This pup was terrified of him. He had to keep looking at her closely, because she simply looked too old to have such a pure white coat. There were many contradictions here but there was a part of Adaman that only saw a pup, small and fragile and so clearly afraid. Was she one of Pearl clans? Why was she out here? These were all questions that pressed on his mind.

“Hey, it’s okay.”

He tried to sooth, but it was hopeless. She was just so distressed and floppy. He didn’t want to crush her, but she was so small and getting to be too hard to hold on to. Akari squirmed free and bolted, an unexpected competence for swimming striking her brain like lightning as it screamed at her to get as far away from him as possible.

Akari had several disadvantages here, but so did the clan leader. Adaman was bigger and faster than her, he was quickly catching up to her, and he seemed very invested in getting her back. Akari was small and, although her coat was a bright beacon to the eye, she could get lost in the foliage rather easily, which meant Adaman had to rely on his less reliable sense of smell and hearing to locate the pup.

What little air was in her lungs was being spent in her escape, but the panic suffusing Akari’s brain had that as a low priority in comparison to fleeing. She was on the verge of passing out, tossing a look over her shoulder to see if she had a moment to take a breath, when she barreled straight into the back of a different mer. This one instantly recognizable to Akari’s senses and he seemed to know instantly that she needed air.

Ingo didn’t mean to grab her so roughly, but he could tell by the heat emanating off her body and the hazy look in her eyes that she needed oxygen badly. He rocketed up through the water, away from whatever the perceived threat was, and thrust Akari to the surface. The poor girl gasped and spluttered, her hand gripping Ingo’s finger so tightly as her panic and adrenaline drained from her.

“Warden?”

Ingo jumped at the familiar voice, half turning to see Adaman emerging from the kelp. Oh no.

“Lord Adaman.”

He replied, offering a nod as he frantically tried to formulate an excuse for himself and Akari’s presence here, but, oddly enough, Adaman came to his rescue.

“This one of Pearl clan’s pups that escaped the pools?”

Ingo almost choked, so grateful that he did not have to come up with a lie. He lowered Akari slowly back into the water so she knew what was going on, she would be instrumental in the lie.

“Y-Yes, I was sent to retrieve her! How did you know she was from one of the pools?”

Adaman glanced between the pup and the warden, only momentarily wondering if Ingo had been the one to fill the pup’s head with lies about Diamond clan eating any stray pups, but that seemed more like Gaeric’s style than Ingo’s.

“I’ve been hearing some unusual things from Sabi… You should tell Irida to keep a better watch of your pups.”

Akari, still breathing heavily, felt Ingo stiffen at the careless words of the clan leader, but didn’t say anything. Adaman moved forward, hesitating when the pup flinched, and just looking rather blatantly at her coat. Were things really that bad for Pearl clan that their pups were stunted? Was the food storage a lot worse than Irida was letting on?

“Sorry for frighting you, little one. Don’t stray too far from home. Here.”

Without much warning, Adaman reached out and snatched an unseen fish from the kelp around them, trying to hand it to her as a sort of olive branch. She only took it after some prodding from Ingo, but Adaman gave her an easy smile and bid the duo farewell.

Ingo and Akari didn’t move from that spot for at least ten whole minutes. The warden did not admonish her, in fact he didn’t say a word, he just looked exhausted.

“I’m sorry.”

She squeaked, knowing he had probably run all over looking for her to confirm her safety. Safety was important to him, but none quite so important as hers. Ingo sighed and nodded, just glad they just managed to squeak out of that encounter mostly unscathed. Adaman had seen her and clearly her appearance had some impact on him in one way or another. Ingo had resolved to keep the girl by his side at all times in the future to avoid such encounters in the future.

"Ghostboy in Hisui" AU drabble ahead, my dear fellas. Basically, Adaman and Irida decide to put aside their conflict about The Almighty Sinnoh when Allister is around. Both of them care about him deeply, after all. By the way, this takes place shortly after the fight against Lady Liligant. That's why Zoey is still a Zorua in this. Here I go! 😄

Drabble: Putting Aside Our Conflict

It was a sunny day in Hisui. Allister had a solo mission in the Crimson Mirelands. Adaman smiled softly as he spotted the shy and kindhearted little boy. The leader of the Diamond Clan cared deeply about Allister. Not unlike Irida.

Speaking of Irida, she was in the Crimson Mirelands as well. It was due to the fact that she had a very important meeting with Adaman. "Irida, we should put aside our conflict about The Almighty Sinnoh. For Allister's sake." Adaman spoke up.

"I was about to say exactly the same thing!" Irida chimed in with a soft chuckle. "We both care about him and it would be a good idea to support him without thinking about our conflict." The young woman continued.

Adaman was glad to hear that. "Hello." Allister was suddenly behind him. The eight years old Ghost Type Gym Leader removed his mask for a moment to smile sweetly at Adaman and Irida. "Awwwww!" Irida was quietly cooing.

"Hey there, Allister!" Adaman wrapped his arms around Allister for a soft hug. Zoey jumped onto the young man's shoulder and nuzzled softly his cheek. She was glad that her beloved Trainer had so many people in his life who cared about him.

Irida joined the embrace and placed a soft kiss on Allister's forehead. Adaman and Irida were Allister's dear friends. The small boy felt incredible warm and cozy in their arms. His beautiful purple eyes were full of love and warmth.

The End

[blazichu]

Lightning splits the sky, arcing unerringly from the crack atop Mount Coronet. Though it strikes some distance away, the entire frame goes white as it lands, followed near instantly by a deafening crash. Unseen, the men startle violently. There are screams and shouts from the settlement not so far away. “What… what just happened?” Ingo asks as the both of them hurry into the frame.

I think you might know what just happened ;)

[archersxartxblog]

Master post

Happy day of hearts and chocolate. I give you chapter 22. this one was kind of fun to write, gotta admit.

Chapter 22

A sigh escaped his lips as the commander slowly stood up from his desk, and made his way to the stairs. Grabbing one of his swords and an oil lamp as he walked past.

Today had been a grim day, indeed. And with what he was about to do, it would only get worse.

They were sorely mistaken if anyone believed he had taken any pleasure in banishing Akari. She had been one of the best they had, and if things had gone differently he would have taken her under his wing and truly brought her into their ranks. But sadly things did not pan out that way. 

There had been too many Strange occurrences since she fell from the sky, and Kamado wasn't a firm believer in coincidence. Things were not adding up and Akari had to be the cause or at least one of the causes.

Deep down, Kamado hoped that he was wrong. Hoped that Akari would be able to fix the sky just as she had quelled the frenzied nobles of the clans. And feared that he had made a fool of himself, and was still making a fool of himself.

But even if Akari did fix the sky… would that not prove she had the power to do all the things he accused her of?

Slowly he descended the stairs, knowing full well he was merely prolonging the inevitable.

This was another thing he was not happy about.

No one wanted to be known as the man who imprisoned children, let alone a whole family. Yet here he was doing just that.

But the Warden was another anomaly. One who had arrived even before Akari had, around the same time the Space-time distortions were said to have started. His ‘sons’ had also appeared sometime between the frenzy and the quelling of the Noble, Electrode. 

Once was strange, twice was suspicious, three times… well, clearly there was more going on than meets the eye. 

While Akari had at the very least worked to help Jubilife and gain their trust, Kamado at least allowed himself to give her the chance to clear her name. But he could not in good conscience extend the same courtesy to the Warden and his family, nor could he simply allow them to roam free.

Irida and her clan may have been blind to the dangers, be he was not.

Sure it was risky to imprison not just a member of the Pearl clan without their consent, but one of their Wardens and his family. But he was sure the clan would not dare make a move against the village, not while the Rift was widening and the sky remained red. With any luck by the time, Irida came to question his choices he would have evidence to prove this claim. Besides, he was sure the Pearl Clan did not have the resources or the ability to start a war let alone win a war against the Galaxy team.

Captain Zisu waited at the bottom of the stairs, standing at attention next to the door that led to the prison level.

He sighed, as he was forced to push down another pang of guilt. 

Just like the rest of the Galaxy, Zisu had lost much to Pokemon. In fact, she had lost her entire family to rampaging pokemon. Yet, slowly she had been willing to trust pokemon once more.

He was aware of how she felt about those kids as she had not once denied those rumours. She had found a companion in the old Warden and family in the man’s children. Perhaps, seeing this as a second chance.

He held no illusion that she hated him for what he was making her do. A mother Ursaring always fights to protect her young after all. He just hoped that then she finally saw the truth, that it would not completely crush her.

“Commander.” she saluted like a good soldier, the look on her face as hard and old as stone.

“Zisu…” Kamado nodded in acknowledgement before taking a deep breath. “Captain…you have a Zoroark on your team, do you not?” he questioned.

Without a single word, the woman pulled a Pokeball from her belt, her grey eyes glaring at him like daggers. 

Yet still, he continued…

He had to be sure.

“Show me.” He hated that he had to do this, to make her prove her loyalty to him, but sadly he had no choice. She was too close to the prisoners after all.

Without even missing a beat, the captain flicked open the clasp and released the pokemon inside. As the flash of light died down, the Commander breathed out a sigh of relief as he saw the baneful fox form in front of him.

He felt both happy that he was wrong, and shame for doubting one of his own captains.

Zisu was a good soldier and loyal to a fault.

“Apologies, Captain Zisu.” he bowed his head slightly toward her. “But given the circumstances, I felt it necessary.” 

Necessary to prove that the prisoners below were in fact who they appeared to be. 

To Prove that the Captain of the Security Corps had not put her own feelings first and replaced them with shapeshifting Pokemon.

Quickly Zisu recalled the pokemon back into its confines, before stepping up to the door and wordlessly unlocking it for him.

“Thank you, Captain.” he took a step forward, pausing at the door. “I am aware this is hard for you, you were close to them. So you are dismissed. I will not force you to witness any of this.”

“Sir,” she saluted once more, turned her back to him then paused. “May I speak freely, sir?”

“You may.” he expected a biting retort from the caption, maybe an emotion-driven rant. But he was not about to hold it against her once this was all over, she would come to her sense.

“What happens… on the off chance that you are wrong about this?”

That was not something he had expected. 

There wasn’t much in the way of doubt in his mind, that he was in fact right. Everything pointed to it. There was no way he could be wrong, and if he was then it was only a tiny chance.

But…

If he was wrong…

Then he had just made a horrible mistake.

“If, by some chance I am wrong…” he told a deep breath as he tried to sort his thoughts. 

If by chance he was wrong then he had not only just unlawfully imprisoned three members of the Pearl clan but Warden to boot. Even worse, he had imprisoned children and that alone would be remembered throughout history. He would have disgraced both himself and the Galaxy team.

If he was willing to shoulder that blame himself, was willing to beg forgiveness from both Irida and the family he harmed, and accept whatever punishment they had for him. “Then I, and I alone will bear that burden.”

But he wasn’t wrong.

It simply was not possible.

Zisu sighed, shaking her head as she started to walk away. “Whatever you say, sir.”

He waited silently by the door until he knew she was far enough away before he started to descend into the depths. Closing the door behind him.

It was dark, the only light that could be seen was what little came from under the door, and there was a dampness in the air that made the musty smell all the more noticeable.

Kamado paused at the top of the steps to light the lamp he had brought before continuing lower, Lamp held high in one hand and his other hand resting on his sword.

There was a noticeable chill in the air that sent a shiver down his spine the closer he got to the far cell of the prison. But he merely shrugged it off as merely the dampness that crawled up through the earth with no sun to chase it away. So he continued down the hall, ignoring the groans and cries coming from the other cells.

He stopped in front of the cell, turning to see, two sets of glowing eyes looking up at him only to flinch away when he raised his lantern up. 

Kamado took a good look at the prisoners within the cell, as this was the first time he had ever seen the Warden’s children in person, and it was only fair to commit their faces to memory if they were to be imprisoned. 

The first thing he noticed about the boys was that they were identical, which was not a surprise as others he’d questioned described them as such. If he had met them before he was not sure if he would be able to tell who was who. a fact that unnerved him greatly, as who knows what kind of mischief that could cause. 

It was hard to tell what kind of body shape the two might have had, as they were currently bent low to the ground and most of their propositions were hidden under the layers of the Pearl clan tunics. But the Commander guessed they were built the same as most nine-to-ten-year-olds, if not slightly scrawnier.

The two stared up at him, the exact same fearful expression, their golden eyes squinting hard against the light of the lamp as they crouched down next to their father. Their wispy grayish-white hair fell into their faces as they attempted to shield their eyes.

Then there was their father. The Warden.

The man behind the bars turned his attention towards him, patting the shoulders of his two boys gently before standing up and dusting himself off; as if doing so would make the strange tattered coat any less disrespectful. 

“Warden.” Kamado snorted as he look down at the hunched man standing before him. There was no point in pleasantries here best to get his answers now so she could better decide the fates of the three, less the Pearl clan try and make a move. “I assume you have seen the sky and are not blind like you believe the rest of us are. Now, tell me your part in all this, Warden.”

But the Warden just stood there not looking up at him, before sneering. “Hah.”

Behind him, there was the sound of giggling, like two children, laughing over some small joke they had overheard; but it was quickly silenced as the Warden turned his head towards his boys.

“Answer me, Old man!” He barked, leaning in toward the bars, his rage starting to build as he felt the strange old man was not taking this seriously. It was odd, not once had he ever witnessed Ingo act like this, the man was always serious but then again, it just made it all the clearer that the man had been hiding his true intentions. “You will answer me! If you ever want your children to be free, you will give me the answers I seek!”

“Hah, hah” 

Kamado watched the man in shock as the warden continued to huff slightly, his shoulders shaking and that horrible mocking smile never once leaving his face.

Was he…

…Was he laughing at him?

The Commander’s rage grew tenfold and without warning he reached through the bars and grabbed a fist full of the man’s tunic and pulled him closer, causing the man’s body to smack harshly into the iron bars. “You think this is Funny Warden! I am not some Pearl clan fool you can trick with your claim of Amnesia! You Will tell me What You Are Planning! Or perhaps you would prefer if I tore the answer from one of your sons!” Kamado roared, holding fast to the man’s tunic and leaning in close to the bars.

Yet the old Warden only seemed to laugh harder.

Had the old man finally lost his mind?

“Do you truly think this is funny? Or maybe you do not believe I will do it.” the larger man hissed towards his prisoner, dragging the fist full of tunic upward, nearly dragging the warden off his feet and forcing the man to meet his eye. “I will do anything to protect this settlement from the likes of you! And that includes Tortu-”

It was then that Kamado noticed that his hand had started to go numb and there was a painful chill that was slowly creeping up his arm. 

He tried to release his grip on the old man but his hand felt frozen to the fabric. 

The Warden had stopped laughing and was staring right at him with a wide grin on his face…did he always have those red marks by his eyes… Slowly he raised a hand and grasped the commander’s arm tightly with thick bloody red claws.

“What are you…” he could see his breath in front of his face.

It was so cold…

…so very cold.

The feeling started to return to his hand, but it burned like a fiery hot poker was being placed on his fingers.

He could hear sound all around him, like a child’s laughter, but he was unable to look away from the warden to see where it was coming from.

He couldn’t look away from those piercing golden eyes.

His heart raced, as he demanded his body to move, to do something anything, but he couldn’t move.

It felt like his head was underwater.

He had to do something.

He could hear screaming all around him. Panicked and desperate cries for help.

The fire behind him casing everything in an orange glow as the fire burned his skin, the village behind him burned.

Yet he could not, could not look away from those yellow eyes.

He had to do something or the village would be destroyed.

He had to do something or everyone would die.

He had to move!

Finally, he managed to break the spell enough to reach for his sword, forcing his eyes closed as he prepared to strike out blindly…

But his hand never touched the hilt, grabbing nothing but air.

Quickly Kamado opened his eyes, only to see that his sword was not where it should be.

It was gone...

But that wasn’t right…he remembered taking it. 

He brought it just in case something like this were to happen.

So why was it not there?

“Hah Hah ha.”

Slowly, the commander turned back to look at the old warden as the man started to laugh once more.

But Ingo was no longer looking at him, but at something just over his shoulder.

There in the corner of the hallway stood the twins. One of them holding the Lamp that Kamado had brought with him and the other was standing just behind the other holding his sword. 

The man’s mind raced once more.

When had they escaped? And how?

How did they manage to not only take his Lantren but also his blade without notice?

His eye was slowly drawn to the looming shadow behind the boys, detailing something that had been far from human.

The boy holding the lantern smiled, his eyes squinting in delight as the Light from the flame highlighted the blue along his eyelids. 

“Zorua.” 

At that moment the boy extinguished the flame and drowned the room in darkness.

—

Emmet sighed as he sat with his back against the cliff, staring at the empty Pokeball in his hand as his brother and father worked to set up the temporary camp. 

It had been earlier this morning, verrrry early in fact, that Ingo had woken them all up with his cries and shouts about the sky being wrong. Upon seeing the problem their father had quickly urged them to pack up their things and help him grab what was necessary to relocate. But when Emmet had gathered up all of his Pokeballs, he had found that one of them was lighter than it should have been. 

“I’m sure Zoroark will return to you once more Emmet.” their dad broke through his thoughts as he gently set drown several heavy logs within the temporary firepit they had created within the Fabled Spring. “He was probably just spooked by what is happening and will return to your station in due time.”

“Then how come it was only my pokemon that ran away.” the younger twin pouted, curling in on himself dejectedly. It was hardly fair, Zoroark had finally seemed to be coming around and then when the sky goes all weird the fox just runs off the first chance he got. Maybe Zoroark had just been waiting for a time when Emmet would not be able to go after it to run away?

“I agree with dad, I heard Zoroarks can be kind of funny like that, or at least the ones back home are,” Ingo added, as he continued to clear a space for the tent to be pitched, running back and forth to move sticks and rocks away. “I’m sure Zoroark will come back, if not I’ll help you catch another one…you know… once it feels like the world isn’t going to end. Now hurry up and help us set up camp!”

Emmet wanted to call his brother out for being overly dramatic in his word choice, but as he looked up to the sky he couldn’t help but agree.

The sky was a harsh red colour and there was a crackle in the air that sent shivers down his spine. Worse yet, space-time distortions were popping up everywhere across the highlands, strange bubbles that seemed to bend Space and Time inside of them causing normal pokemon to become completely frenzied while inside. 

According to their father, this was far from normal.

So maybe, Zoroark really did get scared and run away.

So far the Fabled Spring had really been the only safe place for the time being.

It really did seem like the world was trying to rip itself apart. 

And if he hadn’t been so exhausted it would have been terrifying.

He really wanted to be home right now, with his brother and uncle, drinking a nice cup of hot chocolate rather than deal with this.

With a groan, Emmet slowly pushed himself back up to his feet and went over to join his family in the work. At least it would help distract from the looming threat that was currently the sky.

“Warden Ingo!” 

Emmet paused in what he was doing, looking up toward the voice that had called out. He looked up just in time to see Lady Irida stepping into the Fabled Spring, followed closely by Lady Sneasler and a rather fancy-looking man with blue and green hair tied into a ponytail.

“Lady Irida. Lord Adaman.” their dad spoke up, stepping forward to greet the two adults. “What brings the two of you here? I am afraid the highlands are far from safe at this moment.”

“Warden Ingo! thank Almighty Sinnoh you and the boys are alright.” Irida smiled running up to them as quickly as she could and grabbed his father’s arms, pushing up the sleeves of his jacket and checking his arms for something. “I had just gotten a message from Lian saying you and the twins had been arrested, I’m glad to see that he was incorrect,” she explained, satisfied by what she saw of their father, she then bent down and did the same to his brother and then himself.

“While it’s good to see that your alright Warden, I have to know if you have seen Akari around here?” the tall man with the ponytail asked as he stood next to Irida, hands on his hips as he addressed their father. 

“A-arrested?” Their dad stuttered as he simply stared at their clan leader in utter shock. “I am unsure as to where Lian has gotten the idea that I, let alone my sons have been detained in such a way.” Emmet could hear the shakiness of his voice growing stronger with every word, and his volume starting to raise. His brother’s voice did the same thing when he was trying to hide the fact he was scared of something, so hearing the same tell in his father’s voice put the youngest twin on edge. “And I have not seen Akari for the past few days. In fact, I and the boys have been put up since before dawn trying to locate a safer station. Why do you ask? Does it have anything to do with the way the sky and the rift have been acting?” he looked from the Pearl clan leader over to Man in Blue with peeling eyes. “Please, tell me what is happening so that I may conduct myself and my family appropriately.”

Irida sighed as she stood back up, looking back at the man with the fancy hair before meeting his dad’s eye. “Earlier today, Adaman and I went to Jubilife Village to speak with the Commander about the current…crisis. It was during this meeting that the Commander-”

“Akari was banished from the village.” 

“What?!” their father’s voice echoed off the cliffs, causing everyone to flinch at the volume, and Irida sent a sharp glare over his shoulder at Adaman.

“I’m sorry Irida, but there’s no point in beating around the bush about this.” Adaman sighed, rubbing at his ears.

“But why?” Ingo joined the conversation from where stood next to his brother, his eyes bouncing from one adult to the next in search of answers. “What did she make a bad drawing too?”

Irida could only shake her head as she stared at the ground, not even able to laugh at the slight joke his brother made. “I’m afraid that the Commander is in the belief that Akari is somehow responsible for the current situation.” she sighed, sadly looking up at their father. “We came looking for her with the hope to offer some kind of help.”

“Irida thought that maybe she had come looking for you for help until she got Lian’s message,” Adaman added, filling the shocked silence with an explanation. “Look, we’re gonna keep looking for Akari. But Ingo, you and your kids should probably get out of here. Lian may have gotten mixed up in his report, but that doesn’t mean The Galaxy team isn’t looking for you guys.”

“Yes, if Commander Kamado is willing to blame Akari for all this simply because she came from the rift, I do not doubt he would be willing to do the same to you and the twins, and I do not think he would be so willing as to let you all walk away.” Irida continued. “Maybe head back to the Coastlands, or even the back to the Icelands as I doubt the Commander would be so bold as to march into our settlement to arrest one of my Wardens. But you must stay clear of Jubilife Village and The Galaxy team. Leave Akari to us.”

“Did someone say they were looking for Akari?”

Just before Emmet’s mind even began to process the information they were given, his thoughts were suddenly derailed as a new voice added itself to the mix. 

He knew that voice. 

Every so often he would hear it in his nightmares.

Slowly the boy turned his head to look passed Lady Irida, and so a tall man with blonde hair walked towards them.

“Are you really trying to hold a candle to the might of Gi***ti*a?!”

“Get rid of these pests! And with any luck, we’ll have fixed our last mistake!”

Emmet didn’t remember when he had stepped in front of his brother, shielding his twin from the man as he approached, but he remembered clearly that thing targeting Ingo directly. He wasn’t about to happen again.

He was trembling, and he wondered if Ingo was too. 

The man continued closer, all smiles as he walked up to the clan leaders. His hair was pinned back in a bun, and his bangs covered one eye, dressed like one of Ginko Guild. 

He opened his eye and then opened his mouth to say something, only to stop when his single visible eye looked towards Emmet and his brother.

The smile fell away for a split second, and Emmet saw the recognition in his eyes.

His chest felt tight, making it hard to breathe as his heart hammered in his ear… and then…

A wall of black fabric stepped in front of him, cutting off his view of the man. Suddenly Emmet could breathe again as his father stepped in front of them, shielding both he and his brother from the man’s view. 

Never was he so happy to see the back of his Dad’s tattered coat before.

“Volo… What brings you to this station?” Emmet couldn’t see his dad’s face as he spoke, but he could hear a slight bit of irritation in his tone as he spoke.

“Apologies, Warden Ingo, Lady Irida, Lord Adaman. I didn’t mean to interrupt. I just happened to overhear you all talking about finding Akari, and thought I could lend a hand.” The man, Volo, replied. sound of his voice causing Emmet to lean heavily into his twin as Ingo wrapped his arms around him in a tight hug. “Akari told you had Kids, Warden, though I have to admit I didn’t expect to be running into them today. They look a lot like you.”

“Indeed…” The Warden hummed, his voice sounding curter than Emmet had ever heard it before. “I am assuming you are aware of Miss Akari’s location then?”

“Oh yeah! I found her earlier and brought her to a secret location.” the man stated proudly. “I can take you all there if you like.”

“Yes! That would be most helpful, Volo, thank you.” Adaman cut in and moved to join the man along with Lady Irida, only to pause a step later.

“Are the Warden and his…um…children joining us, or-?” the man questioned looking back at the three as they had yet to move.

Their father was silent for a moment, looking back a the twins before turning his attention back to Volo.

“Yes!” Lady Irida’s voice cut through the silence, speaking up before their dad could even get a word out. “He and the boys will be coming with us.” she looked back at the three. “The Galaxy Team plan on trying to arrest them for the same thing they banished Akari for. If this place you speaking of is so well hidden then it should be safe for the Warden and his family.”

The Warden sighed, bringing a hand up to touch the brim of his hat before nodding. “I suppose it would be safer to join you along these tracks.” he turned slightly holding his hands out for each of the boys to take. “Come along you too, try not the become uncoupled from me.”

—

Zisu stood outside Cyllene’s office waiting patiently for a sign. Leaned up against the wall, with her arms crossed over her chest.

It was only when she heard a loud bang and the sound of rattling metal did she pull herself away from the wall and entered the office. The blue hair woman glanced up at her curiously as walked passed and opened one of the windows behind her desk, but ultimately said nothing, not even when Zisu tossed the Pokeball containing her own Zoroark out the window.

Within a few moments, there was a loud bang of a door being thrown off its hinges, followed quickly by heavy footsteps pounding up the steps and a chorus of screams as passersby flung themselves out of the way by whatever was steamrolling its way up the stairs. Within moments ‘Warden Ingo’ came barreling into view as he came flying up the steps with two little ones in tow, stopping for only a second to look for a way out.

Quickly Zisu stepped out of the way, just as the ‘Warden’ flew past her, jumped on Cyllene’s desk and launched himself out the open window, sending paperwork flying everywhere.

Close behind the two ‘children’ ran by, though not as fast as their ‘Father’ could. 

the one with a slight blueish tint to his hair clearly sporting a fluffy white tail, while it helped its ‘twin’ get out the window.

“Your tail is showing.” Cyllene muttered as she stood up from the desk and grabbed the ‘boy’ under the arms and helped ‘him’ out the window. The ‘child’ let out a little ‘Zorua’ in thanks, as it and the other followed Zisu’s Zoroark out of the Village. 

The captain of the survey corps sighed, as she reached up and shut the window, looking back at Zisu with an annoyed frown, unable to miss the complete mess her office had become in only a few seconds. “Was it really necessary to use my office for this?”

“Sorry Cyllene, but you kind of had the best Window for the job.” the Captain of the security corps laughed, looking around at the mess that had been left in the Pokemon’s wake. Emmet’s Zoroark had really made a mess of things. “Sides didn’t want to risk anyone in the medical bay getting spooked.”

Quickly she turned to one of her men, who was poking his head in through the door, clearly startled by the fuss that had just happened. “You! Head down to the prison and check to see if the Commander is alright, take a few others with you in case he requires help and bring him to the medical bay,” she order and the man snapped to attention before running off.

She really hoped that Zoroark had given him the scare of his life. Sinnoh knows he deserved it after what he did.

Though she was just glad this little scheme worked.

She knew there was no way her men would have been able to so easily arrest the Warden or the twins. Not without a major fight on their hands. Not her boys.

Of course, she had recognized the disguised fox pokemon the moment she laid eyes on it, and she knew just by the way it moved that it was Emmets. That Zoroark was fair to cock to be able to get humble Warden of the highlands just right, at least not to someone she knew so well.

The two Zorua had been a shock but even they weren’t able to fool her, mostly because their illusions made the twins either two identical or not enough. 

“By the way, do those two Zorua also belong to the twins? I was unaware that the twins nor their father had any Zorua under their command.” the blue-haired captain questioned as she started to slowly gather up the paper that now covered the floor.

“Don’t know. They might be Akari’s but this is honestly the first time I’ve seen them.” the redhead shrugged.

She had no idea who had planned any of this, but whoever they were were as clever as the foxes they had sent.

She was just glad to have been able to do her part, and hopefully, this would scare the Commander away from pursuing the Warden as his twins any further.

Where We Go From Here

(Part 1/? Of “A Girl Out of Time”, Adaman x OC)

Read it here on Ao3! (Click the series link to read the rest!)

—————————————

“A C-?! But I don’t understand; it has to be a mistake!”

Her professor, eyes trained upon Hikari though obviously disinterested, simply blinked. “I can assure you, it is no mistake,” he grumbled. “The body of your research paper was for the most part good. However, your thesis was rather… elementary in comparison to your peers.”

”But I’ve been researching the effects of the environment on Pokémon egg incubation for the better part of the year!” Hikari argued, nearly slamming her hands on the instructor’s desk. “Only now, when a paper accounting for 60% of my final grade is due, is the topic in question subpar?”

The professor just sighed, pinching at his brow with his fingers. “I’m more than willing to work out a means of extra credit if that will suffice—however, my stance on your grade for this paper remains the same. I’m sorry, Miss Hikari.”

The girl wanted to continue arguing, but she suddenly felt so, so tired. She had worked relentlessly on her thesis and resulting research paper for weeks, on top of the other five courses she was currently enrolled in at Hearthome University. Now she had to commit to even more work if she hoped for a bare-minimum grade for the semester?

But… what choice did she have?

”I… I’ll take the extra credit,” she surrendered, hanging her head. Moments later, a piece of paper slid towards her, detailing the specifics of yet another paper she would be inclined to write. She’d be lucky if the assignment resulted in her final grade jumping to a B-.

But that’s how the majority of her second semester was destined to be, apparently. While her peers, all enrolled in the same program of Pokémon Research, seemed to have no trouble when it came to understanding the various materials, Hikari had to take extra time to ingest even the smallest detail before it properly stuck. It had put her far behind the bar set by the university, to the point where the other students in the program (and professors, for that matter) barely acknowledged her.

Despite all of that, she had made it her personal mission to succeed in her studies and ultimately graduate with a degree. With how much faith her mother, a now-retired researcher who was previously revered in the field (and the reason she’d even received a scholarship to attend Hearthome University in the first place), had in her, she wouldn’t fail. She couldn’t.

”Honestly, Hikari. Watching you pore over those books day in and day out is making me a basketcase,” her roommate Stella tutted when the aforementioned blonde entered their dorm and immediately went about arranging her study setup for the evening. They got along for the most part, as Stella was a music major and therefore spent a majority of her time in the concert hall, but it was rather pathetic when even someone on the outside could tell how much she was struggling.

”I owe this to my mom, and I know she’ll be devastated if I turn up with an average grade for the semester. I can’t throw in the towel. Not yet.” With that, Hikari plucked herself down into her computer chair and dove into the section of her textbook that correlated with the extra credit assignment.

Stella sighed, and went to retrieve her violin case sitting at the far wall. “Well, I have orchestra practice this evening, so I’ll see you later. Try not to blow a fuse in your head absorbing all that information, okay? And remember to eat at some point.” And her departure, Hikari was alone.

It took all of fifteen minutes of attempting to digest the extra credit material before the girl had slammed her head face-first into her textbook; a groan making its way out of her throat.

”Maybe I just wasn’t cut out for this field…” she spoke, and felt the telltale clench of frustration in her chest. “I’m only doing this for Mom, after all. I don’t even know what I truly hope to gain from this.”

She took a moment to simply breathe, before mentally slapping herself and nodding with a determined expression. Reaching for her phone, Hikari set the alarm for three hours from then, before crossing her arms over her textbook and pillowing her head on top.

”Surely after a quick nap my thoughts will be clearer. Just a quick nap, and I’ll be raring to go once again.”

—————————————

”Did you hear the news? As of this morning, the elders have officially recognized Adaman as our new leader.”

”Yes, I heard. I think it’s a mistake, personally. Sure the boy was learning the ways of a clan leader under his grandfather, may he rest in peace, but from what’s been discussed he hasn’t even received a vision from Almighty Sinnoh yet.”

”Give it time—surely once he’s settled in the role, meditation will come more easily? He’s quite the rascal after all; perhaps this will mellow him out.”

Adaman, having heard the gossip on his way back from the council chamber, didn’t even try to be subtle about his reaction as he angrily stormed off towards the hut where he and Mai resided. With the slam of the front door, he marched forth and parked himself right in the center of the floorboards, then threw his head into his hands.

”I didn’t want this!” he yelled into the empty space as tears of frustration began sliding down his cheeks. “Grandfather isn’t even cold in the ground yet and they want me to lead the clan! Me, who can’t play a Celestica Flute to save my life; me, who hasn’t even seen a glimpse of Almighty Sinnoh! I didn’t want this!”

His hair, long and messy and falling into his face as he vented his anger, quickly became the unfortunate victim of his fit. The distraught young man didn’t think twice about reaching for the whittling knife sitting a few feet away and holding it to the strands he had gathered in his fist. With a single slice, the mop of multicolored locks fell in a pile to the ground, at least a foot in length.

Adaman’s breaths came slower as he observed his work, and finally the quick, hot tears of frustration transitioned into fat, heavy tears of sorrow. Pulling his knees to his chest, he let out all of the emotions that had plagued him for weeks—from the moment his grandfather had been declared terminal to the moment the elders had raised their hands and chanted the rite of passage. 

The front door creaking open brought him out of his wallowing for a brief moment, as a shadow he quickly recognized as Mai approached him from behind.

“Adaman? You—Almighty Sinnoh, what happened to your hair!?” she loudly exclaimed once she’d seen what he’d done.

”It was in the way,” was her brother’s curt reply, scrubbing a hand over his face as he sniffled. Mai just sighed, and moseyed around where he was planted to face him head-on.

”I know you haven’t had a chance to properly process everything as it’s happened; and I certainly don’t think it was wise for the elders to immediately declare you as successor to your grandfather without giving you time to mourn,” she told him, placing a sturdy hand on his arm. “But me, Melli, Arezu, we have faith in you; just as your grandfather did. And now, you need to have faith in yourself. We know you’ll lead this clan to a brighter future.”

”Almighty Sinnoh hasn’t even spoken to me; how could I possibly know how to properly guide everyone?” Adaman spat in rebuttal, and once again Mai let out a sigh.

”Aren’t you the only one among your age group that can recite our clan’s scriptures stanza by stanza? Not only that, but you regularly see to Lord Electrode and Lady Lilligant’s dwellings simply because you care about their well-being, despite not even having the status of Warden. If that doesn’t show your potential as a leader, then I don’t know what does.”

Adaman considered this, his brow furrowing slightly. That’s when Mai pulled out a wrapped bundle and held it out towards him, and he eyed the parcel in confusion.

”Your grandfather wanted to pass the role of clan leader to you by the time you turned twenty-one. Of course, his death occurring years prior wasn’t something we expected, but that doesn’t mean we weren’t thinking ahead.”

Mai placed the bundle in his arms, and he blinked a few times before moving to open it. When the covering fell away, what greeted him was an article of clothing, heavy in weight and rich in its blue hue. Gold embroidery could be seen peeking out beneath where it was folded, alongside a navy corner with white markings matching that of the Diamond Clan insignia.

”Is this… mine?” Adaman asked warily, to which Mai just smiled.

”A haori I designed and sewed years ago with my little brother in mind; fit for a clan leader,” she explained, and laughed at Adaman’s flabbergasted expression.

”Mai…” he whispered, but his sister just stood to her feet, and tugged on his sleeve so he’d stand as well. Once he was upright, she snatched the haori from his hands and unfolded it, then went about placing it on his person until it sat as intended.

”Mhm. I knew it’d look great on you,” Mai said with a pleased smile as she inspected him from every angle, and even Adaman had to admit he liked how it looked. Despite being a bit loose, the haori and its accompanying tassels managed to drape down to about mid thigh; which would’ve been worse had he not finally hit his growth spurt the previous summer.

”I wonder if we can get Arezu’s help on fixing this up,” Mai continued as she lifted a jaggedly-cut lock of hair on his head. “Hm… an updo might look good. Formal, but not so serious that people forget you’re still the same Adaman.”

”Would they?” he questioned, a sinking feeling in his gut. The last thing he needed was people he’d known for years treating him like a pariah simply because he was in charge of the clan.

”I don’t think so. But you will want our people to treat you with some respect. After all, when it comes to diplomatic matters, you’re the face of our clan. How would it look if Melli started berating you while you were having talks with those Galaxy Team folk?”

Adaman snorted at that, and nodded. That’s when Mai set her hands on his shoulders, and squeezed them in reassurance. “You’re going to do great, Adaman,” she said, and then pulled him into a fierce hug. Only after taking a deep breath did Adaman relent and return the gesture.

Time wasn’t on his side as it stood. And only time would tell if his sister’s undying faith in him would be misplaced. 

——-—————————————

“Well, if it isn’t our resident savior. Mind if I join you?” Adaman asked of Hikari, who looked to be taking a break from surveying the mirelands. She sat on a large boulder overlooking the nearby prairie, and flashed an easy smile at him as he approached.

”By all means,” she replied, gesturing for him to pick a spot. He chose to sit on the ground directly in front of her, leaning into the face of the boulder with a sigh.

”Been out here long?” he questioned, and heard the material of  Hikari’s kimono shifting as she shrugged.

”Long enough. I was sent this way to study Togepi, since we don’t have a lot of data on them as it stands. They seem to only appear when it’s perfectly sunny, so I’ve just been waiting on those few clouds overhead to… y’know…” A statement which resulted in her making a shooing motion with her hand.

Adaman laughed at her rather blunt attempt; though, if he were being honest, it was getting rather difficult to not find everything she did endearing.

”They’re a rare sort, of that there’s no doubt. I myself have only see them a handful of times while out and about. I’ve heard patience is key when approaching them; but as you’re probably aware that isn’t exactly my forte.”

Hikari snorted at that, shaking her head as she continued kicking her legs back and forth from where they dangled over her perch. For a time, both were content to simply listen to the sounds of the wind in the trees nearby; comfortable in one another’s company.

”Adaman?” Hikari eventually asked of the clan leader, whose attention immediately shifted to where she sat above him. “Do you… that is, have you ever taken a moment to simply reflect on where you were once going, but ended up instead?”

“I suppose I likely have at some point,” he answered, and shrugged. “Why do you ask?”

“No reason in particular. I just… I was thinking about what I was doing before I fell from the sky; back in my original era. I was attending university—er, that is, a place you go to learn more difficult subjects. At one point, I thought I had my whole life mapped out. I was ready to put my everything into being a researcher on par with my mother, who was renowned, even though I consistently struggled in my classes. But then…”

“…You were sent here,” Adaman finished for her, and she nodded.

“Obviously I never planned for such a thing, coming here,” Hikari sighed. “But in a way I ended up doing exactly what I intended, just not in the way I expected. And I’m actually… good at it.” She twiddled her fingers together for a moment, then took a deep breath. “I don’t know. It’s just odd to think about, I guess.”

“Heh… well, I can confirm you’re very good at what you do. As for it being odd…  life is funny that way, I suppose,” Adaman mused, then stared upward towards the sky. “It’s not exactly the same, but I too had a predetermined destiny that started out awry, only to eventually work out.”

“Care to elaborate?” Hikari asked, and Adaman smirked, all-too-happy to indulge her.

“I was always set to take over the role of leader from my grandfather, but his untimely passing sped up the process by a few years. I know I give Irida a hard time when it comes to experience, but in reality we both came into our roles around the same time—in my case, without being completely ready.”

“Completely ready?” Hikari echoed, tilting her head.

Adaman nodded. “Before someone is to become leader within both the Diamond and Pearl clans, they undergo a period of passive meditation in which they receive a vision from their respective deity, proving their worth. Irida received hers long before being inducted—it’s why her people have always held her with such high respect.”

“And the moment you received yours?”

“…When we were confronting Mighty Dialga on Mount Coronet,” Adaman scoffed, kicking at a rock near his foot. “There’s a reason my people didn’t have much faith in me before that happened. In their eyes, I only became worthy after that instance, despite having led the clan for years by then.”

“But that’s crazy!” Hikari shouted, and slid off the boulder so she could look at him properly. “Adaman, if it hadn’t been for you believing in me from the getgo, the Noble Pokémon would still be causing havoc in their frenzied states. You’re the one that suggested I quell their fury, remember? You’re also the one who  personally followed me around in my mission to clear the red sky, because you didn’t put faith in baseless speculations. That is what makes you a great leader; not the fact that Dialga spoke to you.”

“Hikari…” Adaman muttered, slightly speechless, and watched as she turned to face the horizon.

“I suppose that’s why I’ve preferred your company over everyone else’s since coming here,” she quietly confessed. “You’re always willing to give people a chance, because despite their shortcomings, you see the bigger picture. I admire you greatly for that.” Glancing over her shoulder at him, Hikari smiled a dazzling smile, one that resulted in her indigo eyes twinkling. “You are a person worthy of respect, Adaman; no prerequisites necessary.”

Just the way she was looking at him left Adaman stunned—and, coupled with her words, had his heart pounding against his rib cage.

Hikari…

But then he smiled, and stood from his spot to join her in watching the tranquil scenery of the marsh—both knowing deep down that their fates had once again shifted.

Hi it’s me the adaman and Mai with little sibling reader anon can I request Adaman and Mai recusing little sibling reader from an alpha Ursaring

Sure ^^ I did something pretty similar with Lian and Sabi

It gets annoying around the settlement sometimes, being the younger sibling to not only Mai but also Adaman, it left you with no time to yourself.

Everyone always needing you for something, or wanting your attention.

You never got a break.

Which is why you snuck out in the first place, finding an opening in everyone timing and bailing the second you could.

Just taking in the scenery, breathing in the fresh air as you walked down a hidden path, away from the settlement.

It was nice to finally have some peace and quiet.

You keep walking until you find a nice tree with some shade to relax under, and just envy the sunset. You know you can’t stay too long, as Mai and Adaman usually return just before the sun as gone down.

But you’ll take what you can get.

With that you leans back and breathe a huge sigh of relief, closing your eyes you let your mind wonder.

It couldn’t have been that long, maybe ten minutes.

You noticed the warmth of the sun dwindling, making you open your eyes.

Ah it’s getting late….

You really didn’t want to head back, but your brother and sister would worry for you.

Groaning, you stand up, dusting yourself off before looking around. Seems all the Pokémon are gone, or at least awfully quiet, how did you not notice how quiet it got?

As the coldness of the night slowly began to set in, a chill goes down your spine. This all feels wrong.

Dread slowly pools in your stomach, you need to get home and fast.

You hear it before you see it.

A loud, nearly knocking you to your feet with the Earth shattering roar the beast lets out.

You stumble, turning around to see what made such a sound, only to pale at the sight of the massive Ursaring.

The behemoth of a Pokémon standing tall, snarling as you lock eyes with it.

You shriek when the Pokémon starts speeding towards you. Your legs can’t move you fast enough as you take off, running from the beast.

It’s heavy footsteps get closer and closer within seconds, you do the only thing you can think of, and dive to the left, dodging the swing of its claw by a hair.

But it’s still not done, you only enrage it more.

Tears sting your eyes, you’re quickly getting out of breath, but your adrenaline keeps you going.

Every tree you zip behind gets broken down by the raging bear.

You have no Pokémon of your own to defend yourself, you know it’s only a matter of time until your body tires, or until you have nothing left to bob and weave between.

“Leafeon, quick attack!”

Adaman’s voice booms, followed by the sounds of his Leafeon attacking the Ursaring, who lets out another deafening roar.

“Mai get them out of here immediately!”

You barely have a chance to slow down, before the sound of hooves stampeding towards you follow.

You’re grabbed and pulled up onto Lord Wyrdeer.

“It’s okay, I got you.”

By then the tears just pour, as you cling to Mai’s tunic to sob, babbling apology after apology.

‘I shouldn’t have left the settlement!’

‘I’m sorry I didn’t think- I didn’t- I almost-‘

‘Thank you thank you thank you! I was so-‘

Most of your sentences being cut off by your loud wailing.

She only holds you tightly, gently shushing you as you two ride back to the settlement.

“You are okay, you’re safe now, we won’t let anything happen to you.”

She won’t lie though, her heart is pounding, anxiety pumping through her veins.

They could’ve lost you.

The thought makes her hold you tighter.

Lord Wyrdeer stops around a corner, the yurts being just far enough away.

Mai doesn’t want to make a scene, and when Adaman comes back that’s exactly what’s going to happen.

You two sit there on the back of the noble Pokémon, as she lets you cry it out.

Adaman is quick to find you two, eyes wide and full of panic as he rushes over.

“Are they okay!? No injuries? Oh by the almighty lord of time what were you-“

“Adaman, enough.”

The stern look on Mai’s face made him shut up. He registers you cries, oh dear, you must’ve been so scared, and he was about to lecture you!

Carefully he pulls you off the noble, and into his arms, holding you so tightly to his chest as he tries to breath.

He blinks back his tears, holding the back of your head with one hand, trying to ground himself in reality.

Trying to tell himself you’re still here, and that it’s okay.

“I’m glad you’re alright.”

His voice cracks a bit, he didn’t know how to process any of it.

It could’ve lost his sibling, and he never wants to have to think that, or worry about losing you ever again.

You cling to him, burying yourself in a sea of blue of his outfit.

There was a silent agreement to stay right here, just the three of you, at least until you all have calmed down.
