YOU JUST KEEP FEEDING ME MORE AND MORE THOUGHTS, HUH.

Thinking about @fujii-draws' eepies with mine again...except WorseTM. I've illustrated them as meeting after Eliana has made amends with Dusknoir (so like post-post-post game in my AU haha), but what if it were reversed?

Little Eevee!Eliana just dazzled by Sylveon!Ribbons and her bubbly nature despite the hardships that she hints she's gone through. Asking for advice in how to maneuver in such a tiny body, especially in dungeons, as well as for how to support and help Lu advance and grow. Feeling a bit silly being older still but able to piggy-back on Ribbons' back (although she does get taller when she evolves lol).

Baby Riolu!Lu still trying to find himself and his place in the world, still working hard to master his aura-sight, feeling so insecure about his limitations and combative abilities to keep Eliana safe since she's usually the one that takes the brunt of the fighting despite him being more suitable for it. Finding comfort in Aimilios' and Ribbons' unconditional encouragement and advice on how to be a better explorer and partner to help Eliana with her amnesia and Scream.

However, the heartache comes into play when Eliana starts telling Aimilios and Ribbons about her good friend the Great Dusknoir. Do they know him in their world? He's very wise and kind and such an excellent conversationalist. She has learned so much just listening to him and he's very patient and gentle with her despite how rude she was to him at first and she just really respects and admires him (and it's so painfully obvious how much she likes him despite her not saying as much).

Ribbons and Aimilios just Look at each other knowing they can't break the "temporal prime directive" but feeling just so much dread and sadness knowing, at least vaguely, what will happen and how it might impact Eliana. Them feeling so conflicted on whether they should at least say something to try to prepare her emotionally but knowing they can't really interfere. God help them if they witness the immediate aftermath.

(And God help Dadnoir if he's anywhere near her afterwards.)

#GODDDD.#Dusknoir would have such trepidations towards Eliana and Lu when being kind towards them because it would remind #-him so much of how he once spoiled Ribbons and Aimilios right before the betrayal. Wouldn’t it be the same thing all over again?#With the only difference being another universe’s Dusknoir being the one plotting their downfalls?#He’d try to bury those feelings deep down but Arcues does it hurt knowing what Lu and Eliana have to go through.#Dadnoir would still very much spoil/be so kind to the elder Eevee and sweet Riolu despite this. (Lu Especially like you said)#(He’d offer to take his little paw and hold it while strolling throughout Treasure town to make it easier for him)#(Dadnoir would also be very impressed by Eliana and her bountiful knowledge. something the two would most definitely bond over.)#(it’d take some getting used to with now having one Eevee that respectfully asks to ride his shoulder rather than appearing from thin air)#Sometimes he would find himself contemplating if he’s feeding more into Lu and Eliana’s trust in Dusk by showing them kindness #(If those two speak of Dusk in high regards; Dadnoir can keep his composure completely compared to Rib/Aim.#-but he’d still grip his folded hands as he’s listening to certain parts of their praises.)#AND HOOO BOY. If those two ghost’s met face to face.#Dusknoir understands where Dusk came from. being under Primal Dialga’s watchful eye/obsession with Self-preservation-#-and fears of death. but Dusknoir would still find himself momentarily glaring at the other wraith with a red orb in his eye.#he knows he’s being hypocritical but knowing that he did similar things to such bright and kind-hearted Pokémon would make his blood boil #(He’s somewhat projecting his self-hatred on to Dusk.)(Legends know he’s staring down the ghost whenever he’s near the fox and aura pup.)#Dadnoir would move past his disdain for the ghost relatively quick considering he’s in no place to judge. that and he truly does emphasize #with the older specter.#but majority of their first interactions would consist of Dadnoir smiling at Dusk despite the venom dripping from his words if he ever #thinks about laying a finger on Eliana/Lu.#(His overprotective streak is going over to them aswell.)(Momiana and Dadnoir have something else to bond over it seems dhjcchkdn.)
