ELITE CHANGES I: UNRECOGNIZED OR HESITANCY TO ASCEND AND EVOLVE

Chapter I of the new five-part text collaboration between Alpha Rhys and Avis Sapiens

I want you to be honest with yourself for a moment; do you like change? If you lie, you're only hurting yourself. It's totally alright not to like change. It's hard to accept change, especially as we grow and shift in our lives. We tend to cling to certain versions of ourselves; versions we feel are more palatable for those around us. Perhaps we have good memories attached to those versions of ourselves; or maybe we just found a shit ton of success a certain way, and we're afraid to let that go. Why fix what isn't broken, right brahs?

We generally tend to let this resistance to change rule our lives. Whether it's consciously or not is a different story; the fact of the matter still stands. Say you found the most sexual success as a frat brah during your junior year of college, or you've reached your personal peak financial heights whilst in a certain position at work. These things tend to keep us almost frozen in time; leaving us to endlessly strive for that same situation to continue with all its associated benefits in tow. Resistant to acknowledge, at least publicly, the personal growth we've done out of fear that those successes will cease once we realize said growth. I hate to break it to you, brahs, but we change. We grow. It's healthy, it's natural and it's human.

Living in denial over that fact doesn't make the growth cease; nor does it make us any less of what we hold so proudly about ourselves. After all, growth and evolution build upon established foundations; it doesn't tear them done or invalidate them. To the contrary, being unwilling to accept the natural growth to our fullest elite potential will actually do the exact opposite of what we think it does. We think by concealing our personal growth, by putting on a show to please ourselves and those around us with the familiarity of our perceived best, we will stop the natural way from taking its course. Really, we're just stunting ourselves. When we refuse to grow into the men we are meant to be, we are effectively robbing ourselves and those around us of our truest greatness. It's fucking hard to elvolve, I know firsthand; but it's even harder to live a stale existence in spite of the potential greatness, held back by our own selves.

OC Evolution Tag

I was tagged by @sikoi (thank you!) and JUMPED at the opportunity to share Ariss' evolution. Hers is definitely the most drastic, and fun tbh.

There's also two versions of Ariss I'll post interchangeably, her younger and older versions.

Older evolution:

Younger evolution:

This is so fun (I'll be doing it again soon)!

I'm tagging @potionio, @morrigan-sims, @rebouks, @raiiny-bay, @pralinesims, @occultradio, @lucidicer, & anyone else who wants to do this! Say I tagged you (: <3

ELITE CHANGES III: MENTORED ASCENSION

Chapter III of the new five-part text collaboration between Alpha Rhys and Avis Sapiens

The truest guided transformations are not those arising from people who need a drill sergeant to do what they already know must be done. If you have to be barked and coaxed and commanded at every step of the way you don’t really want it. You’ll fail out like you have every other time. There’s nothing that can be done for you. The coach, the guide, the mentor can only make something out of what he is given to work with. But with the right material and the right guidance combined you will become something awe-inspiring.

You join in a legacy, an unbroken chain of lessons learned and methods perfected. Cycle after cycle of new recruits into the process. Honing the form and the mind with ever greater efficiency. Avoiding the mistakes that your Big bro made when he started out. Speeding through the technique which took years of trial and error on his part to master, but that you can benefit from in the span of months.

Hearing his praise shower over you as you become both a person in your own right, but also a monument to his greatness as well. His bro, his student, his client, his masterpiece.

Seeing in you the potential that no one else does. Like an artist seeing the sculpture locked away inside the stone.

Just that affirmation alone makes it all so much more possible in your mind. Knowing that someone other than you is invested in your own success. And inversely, when you fail to adhere to his teachings you’re letting down not only yourself, but someone you care for deeply.

A dynamic and a journey leading side-by-side to greater and more euphoric change. Until eventually you reach the level where there is no more to be taught, but because of everything your mentor has invested in you, you can now keep going on your own. Reaching higher than ever before. Learning new lessons and infusing your growth with your own unique essence.

Until the day comes where you find your lil bro. Your eager young stud oozing potential. And you can help him become more than you were. And the cycle begins again.

Mawile

Mawile (#303)

Muscipulaferrus muscipulaferrus

General Information: Mawile the Deceiver Pokémon, this Pokémon looks benign and pleasing at first, but don’t let this fool you—it’ll use its massive jaws on the back of its head to eat unsuspecting prey! This second set of jaws are actually highly-derived horns that bio-evolved over time to become a second mouth. Only an evolutionary biologist could explain to you how this happened, and that’s not me. These horn-jaws will mercilessly tear apart its prey, and once it does that they’ll secrete powerful digestive juices (like a Venus flytrap) and slowly absorb its food until it is completely digested.

Mawile is capable of mega evolution!

Regular Mawiles average at about 2’00 feet (0.6 M) tall and weigh about 25.4 pounds (11.5 kg). Mega Mawiles are 3’3 feet (1 M) tall and weigh 51.8 pounds (23.5 kg).

Habitat: Mawile prefer to live in caves and mountainous regions, but can sometimes be found living near factories, powerplants, and metal recycling plants.

Life Cycles: Mawile live relatively long lives, with the oldest known ones in captivity being around 50 years old. They are born as singlets or twins to a pair of parents that rear them for the next 2-3 years of their lives. At this point, they move away from their parents to find their own territory. Around 5 years old, the Mawile becomes reproductively mature, and they may incline themselves to seek out a mate. A Mawile may be inclined to have a child every 3 or 4 years. Not much eats Mawiles, and most of their predators (Dusknoirs, Aggrons, Tyranitars, etc.) tend to only hunt them when they’re little or elderly. A fully grown, healthy, young, Mawile is a force to be reckoned with in this part of the food chain.

Behavior: They are not particularly social creatures, but can reasonably tolerate being in small colonies when food is plentiful. Otherwise, individuals are capable of being pleasant enough around those they don’t perceive as either food or threats, but beware: Mega Mawiles are aggressive and vicious and hungry.

Diet: Mawiles are apex predators in the rock/steel/ground-type food web. They successfully capture and eat Arons, Larvitars, Magnemites, Beldums, Klinks, Meltans, juvenile Orthworms, Bronzors, Klefkis, Varooms, Drilburs, Ferroseeds, Togedemarus, Tinkatinks, Bonslys, Roggenrolas, Rockruffs, Rolycolys, Naclis, Geodudes, Glimmets, and Carbinks, amongst others. An acute reader will notice that these are small Pokémon, and that is because Mawiles can only eat what they can fit in their mouths, and Mawiles are relatively small compared to many rock/steel/ground-types that are available. Because of this, they rarely compete with other apex predators of the rock/steel/ground-type food web, like Tinkatons or Onixes and Steelixes, who overwhelmingly prefer to eat larger prey, or rockier ones in the case of Onix. Mawile prefer to eat steel-types, but will eat rock and ground-types if hungry enough. They cannot digest Pokémon who are not rock/steel/ground or at least made of these materials.

Trainers, if you want to feed your Mawile, there is perfectly acceptable store-bought food for them available from PokeBright Foods.

Conservation: Least Concern

Relationship with Humans: Mawiles are strange Pokémon, but are no real threat to humans nor most of their partner Pokémon. Civilizations have long recognized their vital ecological function of eating the babies of dangerous Aggrons and Tyranitars, who are infamous city destroyers when their ire is met.

In the modern age, Mawiles are brought in to recycling yards to feed on the wild Arons that make their home in them. These Arons cause quite the nuisance because that metal was meant to be repurposed, reused, recycled, etc., and harvesting raw metal after it’s been eaten is quite the chore. Mawiles are happy to clean up these nuisances, and as such are somewhat uncommon sights in urban environments.

Classification: Muscipulaferrus muscipulaferrus is the species name for Mawile, which means “metal mousetrap” or “metal flytrap.” The name refers to its trap-jaws and its propensity for eating steel-types.
