#I’m always happy to get Pokémon related asks

[spittyfishy]

If the Pokemon world had their own "Remnants of Despair", who do you think would be in it. (Junko somehow made a portal there or something.)

Buckle up fellas this is gonna be a long one

Ooo okay that’s a super interesting thing to think about! There’s a lot of things to consider when picking remnants in this sort of context (fighting tooth and nail against the instinct to just bonk my favs with the villain au bat but I shall resist!)

I think it’s important take how the Pokémon world works into account, like having Junko just physically torture someone into despair (think Chisa) wouldn’t fly, Pokémon’s ratings as a franchised wouldn’t allow it. So I’ve only picked characters who already had something that Junko could pull on to manipulate them into despair. I also tried to get at least one person from every region! I'm not 100% certain about some of these, so I’d definitely love to hear other people’s thoughts! (And let’s see if anyone can guess which character I had the most thoughts for lol)

Kanto:

Chloe: I think I’ve talked about Chloe’s villain au potential before, but at least during the early part of the Journeys anime she fairly closed off and distant, her dad paid more attention to Goh and Ash then to her, and there were loads of instances where he put his Pokémon work above her needs and family plans.

Jessibelle: Listen, Jessie and James are too whimsical for something like this but Jessibelle was already a physically abusive gold digger lol so I’m sure Junko would have something to work with there.

Johto:

Silver: Not only is his dad a globally wanted criminal, but he also abandoned Silver when he went into hiding (I think that’s the backstory at least), and Silver has a lot of dialogue about treating Pokémon only as tools. If being a strong trainer didn’t get Giovanni’s attention, then maybe being a Remnant would.

Clair: Okay I’m going to be honest, I realized there weren’t enough girls on the list and threw Clair on last minute, but she also is super annoying in the Johto games lol. Like come on I won the battle just give me the badge!!

Hoenn:

Courtney: So in the Pokémon Masters phone game there’s a bit where Courtney is shown to really believe in the Team Magma cause and really hates Team Aqua even after everything had been resolved at the end of ORAS, so I think Junko could get her that way. Have Courtney convinced that it’s her duty to keep Team Magma’s ideals alive even if the rest of the team forgot them.

Sinnoh:

Cyrus: Cyrus failed. All that effort to create his perfect world, catching the lake spirits, scaling Mount Corinette, he got so close— Just to have it all come crashing down at the last moment. His life’s work destroyed by some kid! He already had little to no patience for humanity, so thanks to Junko’s influence fine, he’ll make this world so unbearable to live in that people will beg him to create his perfect world at last.

Saturn: Saturn will follow Cyrus anywhere, both Pokémon Masters and the Chronicles of Arceus movie showed that if the Commanders are put in a situation without Cyrus they will go to any lengths to get him back. Saturn's devotion runs deep, so if Cyrus says despair is the answer then that’s what it’ll be.

Unova:

Roxy: I’ve got nothing to justify this one with other then Junko wanted an Ibuki replacement to preform silly little despair concerts and I needed someone to rep Unova.

Kalos:

Sycamore: I’m not the first person to say Sycamore and Lysander were in love if not in a full blown relationship when everything went down in Kalos. But Lysander died, crushed under the weapon he’d risked everything to restore. The longer Sycamore goes without him the more he notices the flaws in humanity Lysander was talking about. People are selfish and greedy, look at the state of the world! Professors in Paldea nearly caused an ecological nightmare! The president of the Galar region Pokémon league almost plunged the world into eternal darkness! Not to mention what the morons over in Hoenn tried to do. If even people that were supposed to be trustworthy were causing this much chaos then there was no hope for the rest of humanity. If he could just get Lysander back, just see him one more time— tell him he’d been right, Sycamore was sorry for not seeing it sooner, that he missed him, and that if he could go back he’d have never given those kids the Pokémon that he was ultimately defeated by. If he could just get him back— if there was just some way— like if there was a big, giant, ancient machine that was capable of bringing back the dead still sitting in pieces in Geosenge Town…

Alola:

Faba: Is anyone really surprised? Faba is a little weasel of a man and will jump ship to whoever currently holds the most power. He could be a Branch Chief again! Or even better, if he does a good enough job maybe Junko will give him the whole Aether Foundation as a reward! (She won’t, but the possibility would always be held over his head to keep him in line)

Hau: Okay but hear me out— in the Ultra games specifically Hau has a few interactions with Guzma where he taunts him about being in his grandpa’s shadow and never being able to prove himself as a strong trainer. Gladion’s dialogue reinforces this, that Hau is always too busy goofing off and never takes anything seriously. If Hau’s just stuck there, his friends surpacing him, his rivals surpacing him, the mantle of Kahuna an unattainable goal constantly hovering over him, all those expectations and the realization he’s never going to meet any of them— it might become too much to deal with.

Galar:

Rose: He was only trying to help! Why couldn’t anyone see that? Galar needed Eternatus and the dynamax particles it could make, Rose had been saving the world! They were all so ungrateful, locking him in jail for saving them, who do they think they are? He made this region into what it is today! Everyone relies on Macro Cosmos, and he ran the entire Pokémon league on top of that! That Leon would be nothing without him! It was a region of ungrateful brats. But even so, he’ll still keep working to ‘help’ them all again, you’re welcome.

Oleana: *holds up photos of Oleana and of Peko* Corporate needs you to find the difference between these two pictures. They’re the same picture.

Raihan: He had to beat him. If he just trained harder, more sandstorms, bigger dragons, if he wanted it more. Leon couldn’t be invincible, he couldn’t be, and Raihan would prove it. Turn all of Galar to a battle ground if he needed, but he was going to take down that champion once and for all.

Paldea:

Kieran: Again, no one’s surprised. Just take BB league champion Kieran and turn him up to 11, and boom. Remnant Kieran. He’s still on a hunt for a legendary Pokémon, if he can just find one of those then he’ll be strong enough to defeat anyone right!

Bonus, all the Team Star bosses: I’m thinking they’d be like the equivalent of the Warriors of Hope, not really part of the Remnants group but still very much in despair. I mean come on, a group of bullied teens like that, Junko would have a field day.

And there we go! 15 Remnants plus five Warriors of Hope! I thoroughly enjoyed this ask, I know some of the concepts were much more fleshed out then others, I almost went with Misty and Brock for Kanto (his parents abandoned him to raise all his younger siblings while being the city gym leader, and Misty was so stuck in her sister's shadow she ran away from home) but I just couldn’t do that to two of my childhood faves. (Pierce and Gladion also almost made the list).

hi, ive loved your art forever, finally working up the courage to send an ask ahshdjfjf

when i was a kid i was really attached to the pokemon anime and i remember that one episode about the charmander being left all alone in the rain, and then being saved by ash and given a chance to recover, i remember projecting so hard onto it and wanting to be given that chance as well, to have someone save me like that. anyways, your art has always made me Feel Things, theres a very sentimental quality to your art and the way you design characters. i connect a lot with your sadder stuff as well. youre very good at storytelling in your work, especially that piece with ray about wanting to return to the places in your childhood but not ever experiencing them the same way. man, you hit that feeling right on the head.

anyways, where was i going with this. i struggle a lot with trying to reclaim some parts of my childhood, it took me a lot to even remember that i projected so much onto that charmander. but seeing a pikachu be so.. i dont know, happy about connecting with pokemon so much, it just, it means a lot to me. i used my imagination as escapism and id like to try and reconnect with it. i am using your art as a guide and as inspiration.. i feel like i can get close to that again.

i hope animal friends brings you joy and i will be so happy if you choose to share any of it. and im sorry about your job, ive been in that exact situation, stay strong

sincerely, one online animal beast to another <3

Oh my GOD, this ask is so touching idek where to start answering 😭😭😭 Wow, thank you!!!

Instant follow btw, ur drawings are so dynamic and sensory, and HOLY moly your anatomy skills 🤯 I’m super honored!!!

I honestly forget ppl ever see my more sad/melancholy drawings, I wasn’t expecting it to affect me so hard hearing someone mention it xD Drawing is one of the few vessels I can properly channel my emotions with, and there’s a lot more raw stuff I don’t share online. I never know if the catharsis I feel drawing the Heavier stuff translates, because I still center those drawings around silly animals xD

I’m so happy you were able to rediscover your connection with Ash’s charmander!! That episode always made me emotional too 💔 I can’t say where my lifelong fixation on Pikachu really began, but my mom told me that even before I engaged with anything pkmn related, I was just immediately enamored by seeing it at a store or on TV xD

Eventually she took me to see Pokémon 4ever in theaters, and I vaguely remember being instantly ENCHANTED by the little short movie before the actual film began. Those animated shorts of Pikachu with all its friends, no humans attached, were always this ultimate comfort fantasy for me to watch xD

As my identity and personality fluctuates, I always find it comforting being grounded in my connection to Pikachu. The episode where it refused to evolve stuck with me on a deep level too haha.

ANYWAYS UHH I can’t thank you enough for your kind words!!!! I am holding ur paw, you stay strong too!

Happy Autism Acceptance Month!

To celebrate, here’s a list of my favorite autistic-coded Pokémon characters:

Red— the OG autistic trainer. Him being non-verbal doesn’t get in the way of him being one of the best trainers in the world. Not to mention, he’s got friends who understand his unique way of communicating and accept him for who he is.

Ingo and Emmet. They love trains— that alone is enough to put them on this list. But they also have unusual ways of speaking (Ingo tends to yell without meaning to, and Emmet repeats phrases). And they’re not good with facial expressions. 10/10 silly train men.

N — another one of my favorite Pokémon BW characters. I think the fact that he gets along with Pokémon better than people is really interesting. And his kindness and determination are very relatable.

Winona— AKA the person who once sat up in a tree doing bird impressions, according to Pokemon Masters. She’s my favorite Hoenn Gym Leader, since A) she’s a Flying-type Trainer and B) she has a bit of an eccentric personality.

Falkner. What can I say? Dude’s about as obsessed with birds as I am (for context, birds mean the world to me.)

Elesa. (This is solely based off her habit of always wearing headphones.) She knows how to make accommodations for herself and look good doing it. I stan.

Bugsy. They could spend hours talking about Bug-type Pokémon, and I would never get tired of it. Also: my headcanon is that they chose their own name after their special interest. Power move, if you ask me.

Cilan (especially in the anime). The OG Submas fan, and a connoisseur of many, many things. He will absolutely infodump your ears off if you let him. And he’s a pretty good cook, too!

Lillie. In the anime (again) she’s scared of touching Pokémon except her Vulpix, but otherwise she loves them. Reading about Pokémon and how to take care of them is one of her favorite things to do.

Looker— who I also think is ADHD. An all-around great guy.

A few runners-up:

Whitney

Jasmine

Steven Stone

Burgh

Iris

Bianca

Cheren

Skyla

Clemont

Morty

Eusine

Sabrina

Erika

Olympia

Viola

Sophocles

Allister

Emma

In conclusion, I’m very happy I got into Pokémon. I can see why autistic people like myself like it so much.

Left Behind - Chapter 4

Catching Up

ASH paced back and forth and forth and back.  Noivern and Pikachu got dizzy just watching him.  Ash didn’t know it was possible to be both excited and depressed at the same time.  On one hand, happy that Misty is in love with him; on the other, really upset with himself.

“I know now, I know now, I know now!” he muttered to himself.  “Yet it still…it still feels like I’m dreaming…as if I haven’t earned it…”

That night he couldn’t sleep a wink.

***

He knew it was a bad habit but once more obsessively working became his escape.  He understood Pokémon best, they never left him unable to speak.  Whether it was the wild ones he and Goh would encounter, or settling disputes inside Professor Cerise’s nature dome, Ash Ketchum knew and related to Pokémon the best.

Yet when it came to notable ‘romantic tension’ in the dome, it became clear to Ash that even Pokémon seemed more put together than him with their feelings.  He knew how Misty feels, he could tell how he feels, but he couldn’t say the words, even behind the security of texting her…

It was odd and he hated it.  Nearly a month went by and he remained in emotional limbo.

One day Ash and Goh were sent to Pewter City to look at some Pokémon Fossils and the research being done on them.  Ash couldn’t really say he was excited, but there was no way he’d—

“Se-VIPER!”

“Swi?!”

“Whoa, WHAT?!” yelled Ash.

“Wow!  A Seviper!  And a Swinub too!”  Goh immediately went for his Pokedex and logged the Pokémon.  Feeling déjà vu and knowing Goh didn’t have the same experiences that he did, Ash instinctively reached for his belt but-

“Wait, Ash Ketchum, right?”  The boy in question looked up and was greeted by a familiar face.  “Hi.  Remember me, Lucy?”

Strangely the thought of ‘Brock’s fiancé’ was the first connection Ash made instead of being the Frontier Brain of the Battle Pike.  “O-oh, Lucy… Yes, I remember you.”

“Good,” she said.  “Seviper, back into your ball.” She did so before Lucy picked her Swinub up.  “Terribly sorry about that, Seviper’s in a fussy mood.  I imagine it’s because today they’re getting looked at by Brock.”

“Ah, yeah.  I totally get it,” said Ash, shoving down any uncomfortable feelings that were rising.  “My Pokémon back in the day always looked forward to it too.  How is he?”

“You can ask him yourself.  I’m on my way to meet him.  This way.”

Propelled by being given an order, Ash followed her with Goh behind.

“Brock… Brock…” mumbled Goh.  “Wasn’t he one of the longest of your friends to travel with ya?”

“Yeah, me and Brocko go way back,” said Ash proudly.  “Then he left to become a full-on Pokémon Doctor.”

“Oh!  And how’s that going?”

“Er…last I checked he was going from Center to Center.  I believe he was at Oreburgh in Sinnoh a while back,” began Ash.

“Right now, he’s on the last bit of onsite training and practice at Centers and wants to open a clinic soon,” explained Lucy.  “Though recently he’s had a hankering for cooking again; he just had spell at a diner which has reignited his passion for the kitchen.”

“Oh?  Very nice,” said Goh.

“That’s cool!  Brock’s always been an amazing cook,” added Ash.  “His stews are awesome.”

“Not just stews.  Plenty of other specialty’s too.”

Ash went silent.

They met with Brock soon enough.  Ash’s fingers twitched as they exchanged greetings with him.  It was especially odd once he got a full view of Brock and Lucy’s luxury home.  He reflected on just how much he was missing out.

“…and these are the footprints of what seems to be a few Bunnelby,” Brock explained to Goh.  “The single-file pattern line implies that they hide their numbers from predators like Corviknight, a tactic perhaps in addition to their quick burrowing adaptation.”

“Cool.”

“Tea?” asked Lucy as she held out a tray with the refreshments.  Everyone took one.

Brock heaved a sigh.  “Most lovely, dear.”

“Yeah,” added Ash, “it tastes great.  No wonder perhaps that Brock asked you to be his wife.”

Lucy smiled.  “Indeed!  I know I’m not the best at emoting, but I promise you that I am looking forward to our wedding day.”

Goh watched in bemusement as Ash blinked and nearly choked on his iced tea.  “Oh… I- I would’ve thought after the announcement on FacePad that you guys would’ve been married by now,” he wheezed.

Brock shrugged.  “The wedding hasn’t happened yet.  I’ve been so busy that I’ve barely been able to do much about the arrangements.  I have a few things lined up, but dates are an important thing to consider, and I haven’t had the time to map it out.”  He paused as if to consider his next words.  “Of course, I understand that not everyone is available at the same time, so I wasn’t planning for it to happen until next year at least.”

“Hey, Brocko,” said Ash suddenly.  “If you’d like…I’d like to help with your wedding plans.”

“Y-you will, Ash?”  Brock sounded shocked.  “Hallelujah!”  He jumped up from the couch and held onto Ash’s shoulders.  “I never thought I’d see the day!  I thought I’d have to forcefully negotiate with ya to get you to come to my wedding!  Ain’t no way I was going to do so without my longtime best friend!”

“Y-ya were?!”

“You bet!  I was really worried that I’d have to find someone else to be my Best Man.”

He tried, but failed, to hold in his tears.  “Thanks, Brock,” said Ash as he rubbed his eyes.  “I…I just… I was scared…for a second…that I missed another grand event for one of my friends.  I… I really want to be more involved in all your guys’ lives...”

The former Gym Leader nodded thoughtfully and gave a sympathetic grin.  “I had heard from people like May and Delia that you’ve been so busy lately that everyone thought you didn’t have time for them.  I never believed that, though.  If anything, I respect that you put your dreams first and foremost.”

“Thanks, Brocko.  I’ll try my best to be more of the friend I think I am.”

“Attaboy.”  Then Brock got close again.  “By the way…you got a girl who you can invite along…?”

“Uh…” mumbled Ash.  “Y-yeah…of course I do…”

“Who is she…?”

“W-wouldn’t you like to know…” said Ash, trying to sound sarcastic but failing.

“Mm, I think I know who it is.”  Ash paled and Brock took the hint.  “If you’re not too scared, I dare you to bring her for when Lucy’s arranging the plans for the aisle walking.”

Ash shook his head; the dare got him back to his old self.  “Yeah!  Course I’m not scared!”

***

“I’m so boned…” sighed Ash.  He just had to promise to bring Misty along when he wasn’t even sure anymore.

“Pika!  Pikachu chu, pi pika Pikachu, chu, Pikapi.”

“I know. I know!” replied Ash.  “I just…don’t know why I’m hesitating.  I know how I feel, and yet I doubt myself.  I see how things with my friends have turned out and I’m scared I’ll do it to her too.”

It was then that his phone went off.  It was a text from Misty asking when he was available to see her.  Ash paled.  He just wasn’t ready for that.  If he agreed, he’d have to face hers and his feelings.

Ash texted back a quick sentence explaining he felt too tired and didn’t have the energy for it.  Misty sent back a message of understanding.  He put the phone down and held his eyes, shaking.  “What am I doing…?”

He didn’t see Misty for some time, yet she texted a claim that she understood why.  Pikachu scolded him for it but Ash ignored him even when he’d get a Thunderbolt for his stubbornness.  Meanwhile the preparations for Brock’s wedding were finally in motion.  Ash as promised assisted in finding deals, venue, and budgeting.

The time when Ash was to bring Misty along was nearing.  She knew of the wedding but Ash hadn’t told her about his part to play in the event, he wanted that under wraps.  Being around just Brock eased Ash, but then one day…

“May!  There you are!  Have Lucy and I got a fun part for you play in the wedding.”

Ash turned and paled.  He wasn’t ready to see May, not after what happened.

“Hey Ash,” she greeted.

“Hey…” he replied.  Luckily for him Brock was too busy enthusiastically explaining his plans for the festivities for her to get involved with Ash.

Then they got to the tedious physical invite cards.  Whether it was bad luck or some sixth sense on Brock’s part, he and May were paired to take the whole lot to the post office.

May brought her son along in a stroller.  It was just big enough to support one box of invites, so Ash carried the other.  They walked along in silence save for May’s motherly cooing to her kid.

He’d just finished stuffing the last stack into the chute when his eyes turned and met May’s blue ones.  Ash immediately averted his gaze but before he could act further…

“Hey Ash, I have something for you.”  May then reached into her purse and produced a DVD case.  “My wedding video, it includes the reception ‘n’ everything as we wanted it professional filmed.”  Ash blinked and reached for the case.  “I’m sorry it took so long to give it you, but it felt wrong to just mail it to you.”

Ash grimaced as he felt the plastic case.  “May…why wasn’t I invited to it?”

He looked up and saw her fidgeting.  “Honestly,” she began shakily, “I didn’t mean any malice.  We hadn’t talked since Sinnoh.  When the date and time were arranged it just seemed wrong to pull you from all the way in Alola, especially when I heard through the grapevine that you’d only just flown back and forth from Kanto a few days prior.”

“So you assumed for me,” Ash interrupted.  He kept his gaze away from the baby as he felt partial guilt doing this to a mother but he had to make things clear.  “You assumed I wouldn’t have gone to hell and back for an event as important as that?”

“Yes…” replied May shakily, “y-you’re right, Ash.  There’s no excuse for what I did.  But-”

“But what?” he said harshly.

She quivered a little.  “Y-you…you never gave the idea that such things would interest you!” she cried.  Ash blinked.  “Ash, you’re a friend and I have nothing short of deep admiration and respect for you, but when we traveled, you always made it clear to me that love was way down your priority list.”

“Right, as if that means it’s right to assume I wouldn’t care about a wedding,” replied Ash crossly.  May shrank back.  “Thanks a lot, May.  Some friend you are.  Y’know, you’re just like everyone else, cold, uncaring, disho-”

“Ash!”

“What?”

“I’m sorry.”  May bowed her head to the ground.  “You’re right,” she said, quivering, “it was a dumb, stupid decision – one I regretted as soon as I realized I was looking for your face at the dinner.  It was my fault entirely with a choice made with a brain over a heart.”

Hearing her tearful apology.  Ash felt the red-hot hate dissipating away.  “Thanks, I guess.  I’m sorry for that.”

“You’re not wrong for feeling that way.”

Ash grimly and somberly nodded.  “Hey, by the way…” he muttered, “I also want to apologize for what I said at your house in Hoenn…about comparing June there to Skitty…”

“Wha…what’re you talking about?  It was just a joke – I knew what ya meant.”

“Oh.”

“What?  Thought I was offended?  I’m not that uptight about motherhood vs being a Trainer.”

It hadn’t been ideal but that shouting match with May had made things a lot clearer for Ash.  He felt more at ease knowing he hadn’t completely been forgotten about.  He hoped more than anything else that his involvement with Brock’s wedding would make his other friends and associates aware that he wasn’t as unavailable as many seemingly assumed.

The few friends he did manage to encounter after that saw a much happier Ash Ketchum.  His Mother was pleased to see him in higher spirits, Dawn began talking about non-Pokémon related things with him more than before, and Professor Cerise and Goh were both pleased to see him working less frantically.

“So Ash,” Brock said one morning to him not long after his confrontation with May, “in two days Lucy wants to take the walking arrangements and practice seriously.  You and your date ready for it…?”

“Y-yeah…totally,” said Ash, avoiding eye contact.

“Good,” said Brock with a smile that one’d have when they’re up to something.  “I look forward to meeting her.”

***

Ash tried reading romantic confession advice online, he tried his various friends, Gary, Chloe, Dawn, but nothing they said gave him further clarity and all of them had the audacity to tell him his “feelings were obvious.”

“So, you’re going to tell Misty how you feel?” asked Delia one morning.

“Yeah, I am.”  Ash paused as he placed a bowl into the sink.  “…Mom, do you have any advice for telling someone you love them?”

“You know how she feels – and you have been the one asking her out.  You’ll know what to say in your heart to her.”

That morning Misty had a public demonstration of her Gym Battle training.  Ash managed to catch the last few minutes.  He was impressed, the Gym’s benches were crowded with onlooking Trainers.

Amongst this crowd, to his bemusement, were numbers of photographers – presumably from the modeling magazine Misty mentioned.  Perhaps more distressing, however, were those who were just there to ogle at her.  The comments alluding to her nice figure made him angry but watching her command her Pokémon instantly took him out of it.

“Starmie, use Psybeam!  Azurill, Hyper Voice!  And Gyarados, Hydro Pump!”  All three Pokémon roared and fired their attacks.  The already pummeled targets were hit and got either incinerated or fell to pieces!

“That was a good show of strength,” Ash said to Misty after the demonstration had ended.

“Thank you.  I do have a reputation as a powerful Gym Leader to keep up.  Yet, y’know, not impossible for any rookies who come my way.”  Ash chuckled.  “So what’s the agenda today?”

“Well, today I was thinking lunch at this diner…”  Then he told her a skeleton of what he wanted to do with her that day.  They were just exiting the Gym when Misty stopped, and Ash turned to face her.

“So have any problem that you’d like my advice on?”

“Huh?”

Misty looked confused for a second and then gently held his left.  “Ash, I’m asking if there’s anything bothering you right now.”

“Oh.”  He brought his right to clasp hers and gently rubbed it. “No, not this time, Mist.  This time it’s just about us.”

Misty’s face brightened.

***

As they ate lunch at the diner, Ash felt more at ease than usual.  Talking to Misty about trivial things, work, and Pokémon was relaxing to him, especially now as they discussed his current standings with his friends. 

“…I’m just glad my friendship with May wasn’t actually as…”

“Dour?”

“Yeah, somethin’ like that – dour as I thought it’d be.  I’m kinda surprised with how quickly I forgave her for everything.”

“That’s good.  When was this?  You haven’t been to Hoenn in months.”

“Uh.”  Ash froze.  “I ran into her here in Kanto.  Y’know…for Brock’s Wedding.”

Misty blinked as it clicked in her head.  “Ah, makes sense.”

They went silent after that, choosing to dig into their food.  It was as Ash thought, being with Misty now has a sort of calming effect on him.  This had been true months ago but now he was sure of it.  It helps that he’s starting to feel better about his relationship with his friends – she’d been so instrumental in that, probably more than she realizes.  All this made him appreciate her more and more…

“Ash,” said Misty as she chewed on some noodles, “you seem…troubled.  Is something wrong?”

“Huh?  Oh, sorry…just was spacing out.”

“Ash.”  She put her spoon down and looked firmly at him.  “That’s the sort of face you’ve made whenever you were worried these past few months.”

“No, really, it’s not like that.  Just…I like the little shine to your fingernails.”  She stared at him.  “Really, I mean it.”

The stare down continued until Ash pointed at the mess Azurill was making – it was after that Misty decided he was being truthful.

The date went well.  Ash took her to see a research display and art gallery – she in turn surprised him by taking him to see a mini-Pokémon racecourse.

***

Evening came and the two friends were finishing two gelatos they’d gotten at the local fairground.  They leaned against the nearby park’s railing facing the setting sun.

“Whoa, we’ve got a great view.”

Ash paused in thought, finished his gelato, and looked around; no one was nearby.  “Hey Mist…a word?”

“Yeah?”

Ash had a deep breath before beginning.  “Misty, thank you for telling me how you feel, hearing that really touched me.  I honestly can’t word how grateful I am for all your support these past few months.  I’ve always valued you even when I didn’t know what it meant – probably wasn’t…mature enough to put it all together…”

“Ash…”

“And what I’ve put together is that: I love you too.  I’m…sorry if that was obvious.”

He heard her breathing slowly.  “Don’t say it like that….”

He rubbed the back of his head awkwardly.  “Everyone else seems to think so.  I mean, I subconsciously asked you out; as a kid I was always jealous whenever you gave your attention to another guy…seems obvi-”  Misty cut him off by grabbing his hand.

There was a long pause before she spoke.  “I know more than anyone else how difficult it is to distinguish ‘like’ from ‘love.’  Just hearing you admit that to yourself is something special.  It’s easy to say like, and I would’ve accepted just that – to know the difference and say it, that’s bravery, Ash.  Don’t beat yourself up over whether it was obvious or not, only you could make that call.”  She squeezed his hand further, as if to imply she didn’t want to hear any objection.

Left speechless, Ash’s only reaction was to reach out and hug her firmly.  Loosening up a bit, the two caught eyes and without words, softly pressed lips for a simple yet electrifying kiss.  Ash felt all his anxieties, fear, and any other burden fade away.

“I love you,” said Misty.

Ash’s reply was without hesitation.  “I love you too.”

Change still happens in Ash’s life but he’d learn to accept them, adapt to them.  His relationship with Misty brought him immense happiness.  The fabled day of Brock’s Wedding soon came.  Ash felt strong feelings of affection as he followed Brock down the aisle with Misty in a white dress next to him.

“You look beautiful,” he whispered to her for the umpteenth time as they stood opposite each other at the altar.  Misty’s response was a blush, a wink, and held a finger to her lips to shush him.

“Y’know…I’m really happy to have met you,” Ash told her quietly at the reception as they sat together at a table.

“Me too, Ash…” she replied.  “Me too…”

“Yeah,” said Ash, squeezing her hands before leaning in close.  “It’s nice…’cuz I finally caught up.”

“What did you catch…?”

“My love for you.”  Misty smiled happily as they kissed happily once more.

Fin.

Author’s Note: Thank you all for reading!  That is the end of the story – I might honestly add on to this one day for the ending, but I felt things were dragging on and on and I didn’t want to overstuff this as a lot was going on as I brought Ash’s arc to its end.

This was originally supposed to show up during Pokeshipping Week this year but between the three previous chapters and writing for that (I still have the last three days to complete…) I just couldn’t and got writer’s burnout.  Hopefully you all enjoyed reading.

Note about this story: chapter one especially was inspired by real life, and as a lot of reviews I received for this indicated certainly struck a chord, which was the intention.  About four years after graduation, I began seeing old high school classmates’ LinkedIns and/or social media accounts and I was shocked by what I saw, so much had happened in the rough four years since high school.  It still is surprising to see what’s been happening.  From marriages, folks expecting kids, battles with personal demons, the death of friends and family members, to some hardcore travels across the seas for both vacation and work purposes.

Change is inherently a part of life of course and I accept that wholeheartedly.  I’m very happy for my cohorts but it made me think about how these sorts of changes would work on a fictional character.  Generally what I consume doesn’t dive deep into these things – I usually write Ash Ketchum as a sociable guy or one who doesn’t encounter radical change.  This time I decided to apply those feelings to him and make a story out of it.  Chapter 1-2 were derived from this and the rest worked itself out as I penned them both.

Do you have any other headcanons about the guys from Amnesia? Can be any kind of headcanons at all, I’m not picky. I’m just happy to see someone talking about it :)

Holy moly!! I’ve actually never gotten an ask before, I’m so happy!! Seriously, I thought I was seeing things when I had a red dot on the inbox, and just about squealed when i read this. If you have more to ask about, headcanons, x readers, ships, go ahead!! I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one left in the fandom :)

Some of the headcanons had a bit of a theme to them, if you can't tell, but I tried to be a little bit varied. Also, these are assuming good ending. (I've also not played Later or Crowd, so if there are contradictions,,, whoopsie)

Shin

Toma had a Wii as a child but Shin was the better player.

Once, they were getting so invested in the Wii Sports tennis match that Shin pretty much shoved Toma out of the way. The MC obviously freaked. After that, they were only allowed to play sit down games together

Shin still did his best to show off. He would also deliberately target Toma and the MC in Mario Kart.

He owned a GBA as a kid though. He’s got a soft spot for Pokémon. He was not happy when Mawile became steel/fairy, and was even more unhappy when MC said it suits him.

He actually doesn't mind study dates. Does he study? No. But he does like being close with a reason other than his own teasing.

Toma

He makes decisions without thinking a lot, and then makes up reasons for it later. Aka, he gives in a lot to his more... possessive impulses.

He tries to pretend like he's sOoo mAture but if he gets less than 6 hours of sleep he will start to lose it... hence his route.

Does not have a fully developed frontal lobe. Will probably get it a few years after he should.

Tying back to earlier, the only game Toma could beat Shin in was Mario Party... only because Shin had shit luck.

He liked Animal Crossing. If he played New Horizons today though, he would gate in villagers he doesn't like, and move his favorite (or the MC if they play together) next to him

Kent

THE ONLY ONE WITH A FULLY DEVELOPED FRONTAL LOBE!!

he just doesn't always know how to use it

he's still working on the dating thing, but the MC has received a lot of cakes. who doesn't like cake? probably the MC at this point

for the trip to London, he let the MC buy him a trench coat

he is found more than once trying to sew a belt on to it

his english does get better over time, but he tries to use a London accent. It's bad. Nobody has the guts to tell him.

Ikki

he's very dramatic about everything he does

he would be the one to keep up with trends the most

even if it's from the MC, he doesn't like getting compliments about his eyes

moisturizes the most.

His hair isn't natural. But he thinks that it makes him look cooler. He naturally has black hair. He's gone through heavy bleaching to get it that way. He had a phase when he had some ombre going on. He doesn't show photos from that phase

Ukyo

he's camera shy!! it's adorable, he'll get really flustered if you turn his own cameras on him

he has a lot of photos of the MC. like, a lot. she doesn't even try to stop him at this point

he takes a lot of walks with the MC. he learned to like the outdoors after spending so much time out there.

he's also very devoted to things he loves. Not just the MC, but give him a present that he loves, he will cherish it for the rest of his life.

would probably take a week to build a small lego set. he just wants everything to be perfect

probably knows about twilight (2008)

the most worldly out of all of them. can speak english (without a bad accent. cough cough kent cough)

he spirals easily, whether that be related to an interest/hobby or mental health

I do not want to come across as rude to you. But I've been thinking of your #personals, #vents  etc. I am only sending this for your well being and to know I am here.

you should not be holding out this hope you have. You should be living your life, I'm sure this person is doing just that and you should be as well. Holding out hope only hurts you more in the end

Hello there anon, I want to jokingly ask if you’re my previous partner using the anon feature to try to gently let me know they’ve decided it’s 100% over but don’t want to tell me directly because they don’t want to hurt/upset me and/or are ready to move on themselves but will feel bad or guilty if they do knowing im holding out hope. If you aren’t well, I appreciate you reaching out anyway because it probably took a little bit of guts.

But the thing is, holding out hope that the One Person who’s ever made me feel desired and like I was possible to love, is probably one of the least reasons keeping me from “living my life”. Holding out hope is background noise in my head tbh, except in the moments where I miss them so intensely it bubbles up, which can happen because somethings too tall for me to reach to just missing their presence because it was a comfort. The fact of the matter is no matter how I feel I can’t and don’t want to control their feelings, and only time will heal or tell. They were my first and so far only love so they’ll always have a piece of my heart

More to the point of the ask here, what’s keeping me from living my life is……I don’t Have a Life. What’s keeping me from living my life is having no money, having no license, no car. I have two friends not counting my previous partner who is my best friend, one who just had a baby she’s obsessed with and another who is engaged, too busy working, and lives in another town. There are no job opportunities here, I already took what was arguably the best one in this town a union job cleaning at a hospital which was so bad it made me start to Ingest Industrial Grade Cleaners (only my counselor knew this up until now). This is why I finally went on antidepressants. I’m pretty sure my town is just becoming a drug den full of money laundering businesses. There’s no social events that happen here, and even if I did want to “move on” I’m related to every other person in this town. And of course the biggest issue holding me back from living my life is I am Myself, but I’m not going to go on a self deprecating spiel right now.

And truthfully I am living my life, there just isn’t anything to it. I live in a shitty small town, a town where someone was just recently caught on a shop camera taking a piss out in public in broad daylight with their bare ass facing the road as close to the outside dining area they could get to this business. The biggest thing I have going on in my life is Pokémon Go and Pokémon in general. I also have my dolls I collect, which don’t make me anywhere near as happy as they used to but also don’t worry if you criticize them at all someone will come yell at you for having an opinion. My knitting which while I’m extremely good at it and people tell me how great it is no one wants to pay what I’d charge for my plushies despite my prices still being far under the actual amount of labour I put in (nurses who make $20-30 and hour who think $50 is too much for my chicken and her chick which took me days to make). And everyday I go visit at my Aunts house which is usually just gossip and talk about whose recently died about people I don’t know. Once a month I go with my Aunt, Grandmother, and Cousin to the next town over because oh yeah there’s no places to shop here either. Oh yeah and we’re pretty much just waiting on my grandfather to die at this point (I’m not getting into this because this is already far longer than I meant it to be). And sometimes I go for drives with my Mom or my Dad when he’s down.

So that’s what it is, Anon. Truthfully I am living what I have to my life, and I know they are too because I talk to them pretty much everyday. And I can’t just stop hoping or move on because of who I am and because I lack most relationship skills that aren’t “by god do everything you can to keep this relationship going”. So I am sorry for the long vent/rant here, I didn’t mean it to turn into this.

And i don’t mean this as rude but Anon? If you or anybody else has any actual advice on How to actually stop hoping, please share it. Because I never got the experience to learn how to do that

Ivy, aloe vera, nutmeg

ivy: what are your ‘tells’ for your emotions and moods? how can someone tell you’re happy, annoyed, upset or tired?

apparently i make a face when i’m even mildly upset/annoyed, like i can’t tell i’m doing anything but mum always seems to ask “what have you read on the internet that’s so upsetting?” 🥲 also touching skin and hair a bunch and generally being very annoying and chatty when overtired.

aloe vera: what’s something (mundane) you really want to experience in life?

hmmmm does getting to sleep a decent hour without anxiety keeping me awake count? or maybe, something a little less serious, play a pokémon game. or one of the older animal crossings.

nutmeg: how’s your room/home decorated? do you have a specific theme or style going on?

my room is like. pink and white. with stuff relating to special interests and comfort things adorning the walls and shelves.

What would it look like for (your choice of Ingo, Emmet, Piers, or Adaman) to bond over both being bisexual?

Let’s hear it for bisexuals!! 💖💜💙 I love being bi because so many people are so pretty in the Pokémon games and I’m swimming in it!

🍓🍓🍓

Ingo:

He’s very relieved to hear you’re bi. He’s been afraid to let you know out of fear you’ll think less of him, but hearing you proudly tell him you’re bi eases all of his worries. He tells you he’s bi too, and you’re smile makes his entire day

You often ask his opinion on people you think are attractive. He gives good, honest opinions on them, always kind and true. You both admire all the beautiful people around you, in happy solidarity

Emmet:

He tells you he’s bi first. He’s not ashamed of it, nor is he scared of your reaction. When you beam and tell him you’re bi too, he’s throwing a party. He takes you out and you people watch, talking endlessly about the people you see that you find

Y’all dominate Nimbasa pride together. Full outfits, body paint, contacts, makeup, pompoms, flags, balloons, signs, the works. Y’all plan for weeks ahead, and steal the show every time

Piers

He’s openly bi, being a rockstar. You find out your bi after long time of consideration, and in your excitement, tell him. Piers isn’t jumping for joy, but he’s thrilled for you. You get a warm side bug and he buys you a drink in celebration, and you two talk the night away about how you found out

He’s written songs about being bi, and you both listen to them sometimes, along with songs by other bi artists. You lie on the floor together listening to music. Sometimes Marnie joins you, unsure of her own sexuality, so she questions you two about your experiences. Piers appreciates your opinion alongside his, how it helps his little sister

Adaman:

He doesn’t know what bisexuality is. You tell him you’re bi and he says “by what?” You have to explain it to him, and he has many questions for you. It takes him a long time of pondering your wisdom to realize he’s the same. You two celebrate his realization with a little private drinking at Prelude Beach

You two cause a wave of bisexuality to sweep the region. The new information on what could be delights a lot of people, and gets the discussion about sexuality rolling, and people are happier than ever, now that they better understand and relate to one another. Adaman hugs you, glad you came out of the rift to make their lives so much better with your presence

🍓🍓🍓

*waves pompoms* bi bi bi bi bi! Bi guy he’s super fly!

Anyway, hope you liked it!! Have a great night!

[fatphobiabusters]

hello! i have a toddler, and her dads side of the family are all bigger, and so is she. shes 2 but can pass as 5, and Im not in contact with the dad so i cant ask him, but I was wondering if you had any resources for kids of any ages and how to support if/when she gets grief about her body from society? i already know that u shouldn't talk abt weight in front of kids, and i dont restrict things like chocolate. ive always been on the thin side but i did struggle with anorexia for a few years, which i was able to overcome when i had to eat while pregnant for her. i just want to make sure that she grows up knowing shes beautiful, u know? i constantly get comments already about how shes big for her age, i usually reply to those people something along the lines of yeah shes super strong too (she moved a chair while i was in it once!) but im wondering if theres something better i can say? even if shes 2, shes listening, and i dont want her internalizing that she like has to be strong for her body to be okay. theres just a lot of stuff that i dont know, that i want to know, to be there for her the best i can. thank u!

I'm so happy to hear you are thinking about this already! You are doing some good ground work, and I'm pleased to say there are already listicales about raising body positive kids. Does my soul good. Some places to start:

https://www.nwpc.com/teach-kids-body-positivity/

https://www.mother.ly/child/how-to-raise-kids-with-a-positive-body-image

https://more-love.org/2019/03/05/how-to-raise-a-body-positive-kid/

A podcast:

https://www.fullbloomproject.com/podcast

And to help teach media literacy:

https://www.commonsensemedia.org/news-and-media-literacy/how-do-i-start-teaching-media-literacy-to-my-preschooler

Also it's important to check in with your kid, throughout the years as they experience things related to body image, often we think as adults that something will be experienced a certain way by children when it can be the opposite. Kids are funny that way. I also want to point out (because I didn't see it but I could have missed it) that if you watch media with your child make a point of saying a fat character is cool or brave or what have you, older media won't be good for this (I cringed thinking about The Goonies) but for instance in the Pokémon xy season, Teirno is a fat boy that loves to dance and you could say "I wish I had moves like him".

Mario is fat and is the hero of his game series, comes to mind as well. Even if she doesn't realize it you'll be teaching her to respect bigger bodies that aren't hers. Because everyone is unique and I'm sure as adults we know some weird cognitive disconnects start young.

Kids might also be accidentally rude or cruel as well, so back to that check in with your daughter thing. I was in college when a 7 or so year old asked me why I was so big/fat. I said "this is the way I am, people are all different, isn't that cool". If I was 7 and another kid said that to me it'd have been a toss up between "that's a weird question" and total mental keysmash. Kids are all so unique.

It is mentioned in the links but to your concern about praising strength, a great way to get around that concern is to mix it up. Non physical traits, especially, are great to praise, children have more control over their actions vs their rapidly changing bodies. For instance you can emphasize kindness and helpfulness. It's really dependent on the situation, but a rotation of complements can foster a more rounded sense of self. It sounds like she's your only child but it's good to encourage kids in a gender neutral way. Our culture praises boys differently from girls. So don't be afraid to praise bravery, cleverness, adventurous thinking ectra along side emotional responsiveness, generosity, helpfulness ectra.

Something I didn't see mentioned but want to bring up from personal experience is, your daughter might struggle with wanting to mature and wanting to be a kid at the same time. To some degree all kids do but often bigger kids are shopping in the adult clothing section earlier than their peers, I remember being embarrassed about it, so down the road if you notice her needing the adult clothes, maybe have a talk about how she's still a kid and she can still be a kid, clothes are just clothes, and now a days with torrid you can find stuff with pop culture characters on it. (Back in my day it was very much a shift from cute fun patterns and colors to muted or jewel tones). The adult nostalgia boom is probably going to be great for kids like me who had to age up in clothing earlier. Off this, one more personal story but my mom was shorter and an apple shape, I was a pear and taller than her since I was maybe 14-16, she didn't know how to help me dress. So down the line don't be afraid of googling up how to best dress your daughters shape. I spent most of high school in jeans too tight on my thighs with shirts a size too big. Big oof.

I don't know how to finish this off just, thank you so much for caring and I hope both of you have many years of self love ahead.

[waywardstation]

Petition to get Kamado sitting out in the heat all day next time. Or something else for punishment. That was just cruel of him. (I can't stand heat at all and I had so much sympathy for Zisu and Ingo.) But for real I really hope Karma's coming back to Kamado at some point.

But wow I loved this new story so much. With Summer fast approaching this is really an appropriate situation. (the place I live in currently also has somewhat of a heatwave so I especially relate rn) Ingo not wanting to part with his coat at first and then even taking off his Pearl Clan tunic. (but tbh this guy is dressed to stand against the harsh cold of the Pearl Clan, I'm surprised he didn't got a heatstroke... and while it wasn't addressed directly I'm pretty sure you could see how thin he actually is could be mentioned in a later story maybe?)

Glad Akari is here to save the day with some Popsicles! I know that they also sell ice with some kind of syrup in japan during those summer festivals. But Popsicles are way easier to make. I'm also very happy to read another Rotom appearance. (Rotom is one of my favorite Pokemon I'm always happy when one shows up!)

Oh to sit with your Uncle and his colleague in the shadow of a building on a hot day and eat popsicles. A cute image! And I'm pretty sure this summer I'll be thinking about this story and probably read it again in the middle of a heatwave to have a sweet treat and to distract myself.

Thanks for another quick update. For real the timing of those fast updates couldn't been better. Currently not having the best of times but your storys always cheer me up and make my day. I love coming back for them for something sweet and for some comfort. Thanks for that.

I'll be looking forward for the next update and until then be one of many anons bouncing around ideas and have a fun time (also thank you for those fun times too) Take care and always remember to stay awesome! Because you are awesome!

(ugh hope my ramble wasn't too annoying Sorry about that)

First off Anon, no worries at all about anything being too long, I appreciate in-depth things and this really made my day to read!! ;w; You’re so sweet, and so awesome too!! I’m so glad my fics and all of the asks everyone has sent have made things easier, I do hope with time things look up for you, you deserve it!!! <3

And absolutely!! Kamado just generally isn’t considering the situation! (He might seem like such a stubborn, one-sided character now, but maybe I’ll get opportunities to flesh him out…I’ve heard some very interesting theories regarding his past!)

I’m so glad you love the story, I was a little worried people might find this one a bit directionless! ^^; but yes, I’m currently going through hot weather myself, so I really felt it as I was writing! I’m so thankful for modern times and our air conditioners haha!

And about Ingo and his coat, yes, it wasn’t directly pointed out; I sort of set that up for my food shortage fic as you guessed. Things are being noticed, but not to the point where it is explicitly clear (because people aren’t aware of the issue yet). So instead of writing that straight up described Ingo as thin or skinny, I talked about how without his clothes, he contrasted Zisu with her muscles, and how he seemed less broad and smaller. How his Pearl clan tunic was big, and gave no defining form to his body. Akari notes how he seems incomplete as well when he’s just in his underlayer. She can’t pinpoint it yet. I appreciate you caught onto that!

I did almost write him having a heat stroke because yeah, that is a LOT of thick layers, but the man needs a break so I had Zisu save him from that haha

And yes! I considered doing something more elaborate than snow and berries on a stick, but I was like “Akari’s a kid and she’s rushing, she’s gonna be cheap and easy” haha. Glad you appreciate the rotom appearance as well! I am very fond of the Pokémon myself!! :)

I’m glad the visual of having popsicles with Ingo and Zisu at the end of a hot day gives summer vibes, it was what I was trying to go for!! The highest compliment I can get is knowing someone returns to my stories to read them again, so thank you so much, genuinely ;w;

I’m so glad you appreciate my updates, it makes me happy to know you enjoy them and appreciate me trying to get them out as quick as possible without rushing the story! So thank you very much!

Once again, thank you for the ask, it’s much appreciated. Looking forward to sharing more ideas around with you and the other anons! Have a great day! :)

how are we doing? have the tears dried yet? I know mine haven’t :: 

let’s start light : research fellows count ! (also, lady, only ten years old? - I resent that).

Goh understands this?? he’s got a silly proud smile and it’s following Ash’s butchered storytelling??? love 

research fellows count ! 

perfectly attainable dream 

sure, go for it.  (look at both of their supportive lil smiles, we love best friends) 

we all know the scene that’s coming ahead, but I thought this was a beautiful demonstration of growth already on Goh’s side.

Listen before the sad part begins let us appreciate for a moment how Ash and Goh were smiling at EACH OTHER after the interview was over. cuties. 

behold : the last frame we have of baby Sobble. I’m going to miss you, bean. thank you for everything<3 (he was so proud of his good deed as well!! my very heart) 

just how fast the night changes, indeed.

Drizzle went through shock and pain at record speed and swiftly landed on anger - only to fall into ✨depression✨ just as quickly.

and then we just stayed there.

someone 

is 

(oh hey Cinderace ! good to see ya)

having  

a rough morning

 (I’m sorry, this scene was just fucking funny - the drama)

Cinderace’s proud big bro moment was just too sweet to leave out - let us not forget, he’s been a big bro since he was Raboot (and even as a temperamental Raboot, he was always gentle to Sobble). And now his baby bro has evolved as well. precious ! 

Goh handled this situation very maturely from the beginning. And here’s when the build up starts. He’s saying ‘hey, let me help you how I think you need to be helped” and he genuinely doesn’t mean any harm! naturally, his reaction is to help his Pokémon, in the way that has worked in the past.

but then he starts to understand maybe that’s not the best approach this time around.

and he’s ready to respect those new boundaries (of course, there’s no blame on Cinderace, either. Much like Goh, he - and everyone, really - was just trying to help in the way he thought was the best).

shoutout to the animation on this bit because Pikachu’s ears darting down was a delightful detail. Chloe’s expression and Grookey’s simmering down drove the point home as well.

ah, you coy little thing. Did you forget how your trainer almost left you behind because of how rebellious you were??? Because you made him feel as though you’d be better off without him?? (Cinderace has selective memory, you can’t change my mind, don’t be miss-leaded by the cuteness)

this build up was wonderful - we begin to hear all these reasons why, yeah? maybe he just wants to be alone.

maybe he’s still very afraid and careful of his surroundings, and his evolution made it worse? (he’d been popping up in random places in previous episodes, hiding, which was also great foreshadowing for this episode !) 

maybe he’s cocooning himself until he’s ready to evolve again? (which, considering his disappointment and how badly he wanted to be Inteleon already, is a very plausible reason)

but Prof. Cerise gets it right when he says ‘we can’t really know for sure’ (which ties greatly with Goh’s upcoming scene) - is it your Drizzle’s quirk? are they all like this? who cares? Isn’t wonderful how he’s a living creature? how he’s got nuances and a personality? shouldn’t that be enough of a reason to look after him, and try to help him right now?

my child, still thinking he’s got to do everything on his own.

and these two are just like ????? Goh ??? watchu talking about ???

can you imagine how MUCH this moment means to him?? he was ready to keep going alone (it’s what he knows) and even when Ash and Chloe prove him, time and time again, that he’s not alone, there’s still something in Goh coded to believe others won’t care as much/won’t be there when he needs them. and that’s why he insists: I’ve got this. I can do it alone.

and, sure, but you don’t have to. that’s the beauty of friendship.

you tell him, Chloe. (actually, without Chloe calling him out, he might have taken longer to figure out where Drizzle was. so...) // but also, it gives us a glimpse into the fact that, while Goh might have felt very lonely, Chloe has been observing and caring for him - in her way - for a long minute as well.

my very point above. 

HEY, LISTEN: he doesn’t know, either. he’s a child, words are hard, and you rotate along the four moods of childhood (happy, upset, scared, hungry (?)) and don’t ponder much on anything else because you are a child, there’s no emotional intelligence to speak of, no need for it, you’re being shaped by your environment and all the stimuli of the world being a new place. things like loneliness, confusion, anxiety... we can’t put those into words - hell, they’re fucking abstract and confusing even when we are adults.

and Goh’s stimuli and environment was, given what we know of his family life, a rather lonely one. Did his parents have a lot of spare time to take him to the park? I don’t think so. Was he good at going out there and asking other kids to play? ... probably not. 

Chloe doesn’t strike me as an extrovert, either, so even if she wanted to get close to Goh or invite him to hang out, perhaps she was too shy as well. Heck, perhaps Goh’s reaction would’ve been like the one above, he simply didn’t know. Maybe he didn’t want to ! and that’s perfectly fine as well.

am I forgiving the anipoke team for making Goh cry? no, never. but this was beautifully executed so I can grow to live with it.

“why are you depressed?” “you have nothing to be sad about!” “look at all the wonderful things you have!” “just be happy again!” - sound familiar? yeah, this was incredibly well done.

as adults, perhaps we see this and think ‘shit, how cool that they’re prodding on these topics, it’s important’ and it is !!! so important !! but if it’s this impactful as young-adults/grown-ups, imagine how impactful it must be as a child to see this and feel perceived. I’m honestly so proud of this moment, this whole episode. I’m grateful they took the time to look into this maturely. and even if children don’t do a full-fledged analysis on it, if they relate (like I know so many of us did) they won’t forget it. and that’s beautiful.

darling I’m blanking on your TW handle I’m so sorry - but someone in a tweet SO RIGHTFULLY pointed out that these are the words Goh would have needed to hear when he was younger. saying them to Drizzle it’s a full circle moment for him, he’s hearing them as well, and it’s helping both of them grow.

He’s not forcing himself as Drizzle’s trainer. Goh bears no entitlement here. He’s saying ‘Hey, if you’re comfortable, if you want to share , I’ll be here’ / as a kid, people did care for him, they kept wanting to know what was going on, but Goh couldn’t put that in words and people pestering him only made it worse, but if someone had said ‘hey, when you’re ready...’ then,,,,yeah,,,,maybe it would’ve been different. 

he’s offering that safety now to his Pokémon, something he didn’t have, but he grew to understand is what he (and now Drizzle) needed. If that doesn’t have you breaking down in a teary mess then you are stronger than I’ll ever be, because my glasses were cloudy by this point.

why, why, why. because you needed to hear all that as well, baby! so did a number of us. thank you.

I’ll say that, however it was that you connected with this moment, that’s yours to cherish. 

Personally, I too had a lonely childhood marked by parents who overworked, and I too spent a lot of time alone in kindergarten and through elementary school because it was hard to make friends (turns out i’m an extrovert, ha, talk about breaking out of your shell...) so, obviously there were easy common grounds for me in this episode.

but I LOVED to read the reactions and realize so many people still connected with it, one way or the other. So many of us felt seen and understood and acknowledged in emotions that are so hard to put into words !! 

so, again, if you identified with Goh or Drizzle or any of the topics in this episode, that’s very beautiful, and I hope the underlying message that you’re not alone gets through.

With Sobble, and now with Drizzle as well, Goh is very adamant to remind us that, however we are, that’s fine. there’s something that makes us special, regardless of other people’s opinions, or their ideas of how we *should be* // that’s the message I’m taking with me, at least.

 and i can’t wait to see how this story line evolves !! I have no doubts that, when the moment comes, Inteleon will be a wonderful addition to the team, but Drizzle is here now, and he’s plenty wonderful already x

Bonus: 

ha ha, yes. I watched this episode three times. And all three times I was a mess.

side note but a very important one: the animation, the voice acting, the dialog, the scenery of the starry night - the entire scene was so beautifully executed. so  carefully crafted. ugh, amazing. just perfect. so happy.

talking about toh | season two, episode six: hunting palismen

i am so sorry this is so late! blame my lazy tendencies, heh. i'd promise this won't happen again, but if i did, i'd be lying.

previous | first | next spoilers under the cut, as always

the beginning

we met a bunch of new characters right off the bat! also, apparently the head of the bard coven uses they/them pronouns, which is super exciting as a user of he/they.

well, i'm not looking forward to the day of unity whatsoever. it sounds kinda neat on paper, but i have a bad, bad feeling about it.

what's wrong with belos? as in, why is he so goopy? and weird? it's terrifying!

it looks like the golden guard is either belos's nephew or his adoptive nephew. i'm going with him simply being his nephew, due to a theory i'll discuss in the "predictions" section.

oh, also, this isn't a point on this part, but i'm gonna refer to the golden guard as the golden guard until i've reached the point of his name reveal, to mirror my thoughts upon my first viewing.

amity's purple hair is in the intro!!! it looks so good!!! so is eda's new outfit, but amity's hair is more noticable.

the plot

i thought it was adorable that luz set up a little cage for the echo mouse. she's so caring.

it was neat seeing the bear from s1e12 make a cameo. and then get its head squeezed off. at least it can't do any more damage.

the fact that eda's mention of luz's classmates is what got her enthusiastic about going to school implies that she was most excited to see one classmate in particular. a newly purple-haired one, perhaps?

i love how luz asks willow about amity. i was sad she wasn't there, though. it makes sense. my guess is that she's either grounded for the hair thing, too scared to go to school and face luz, or both. probably both.

it was so cool to me that eda was helping bump with the palismen. i love their friendship. (but if anyone ships them i will riot.)

i was not expecting to see bump's hair this episode. he looks fabulous, i have to say.

return of the bat queen! i personally love her, even though she's kind of creepy.

i saw a post pointing out that one of the palismen looks like the untitled goose from untitled goose game (it has a bell in its bill) and i think that's the one i would want.

i'm so happy for willow, gus, and everyone who got palismen in this episode! (except maybe boscha. i hate boscha.)

but i think out of all of the ones doled out willow's was my favorite. it looks like a bombyliidae bee fly. look them up, they're some of my favorite creatures. they're the inspiration behind the pokémon cutiefly and ribombee.

i felt really bad for luz, since she didn't get a palisman, but at the same time i didn't think she would. it's too early for her.

it was also unfortunate that we didn't get to see amity get a palisman. however, i saw a leaked image of hers and i absolutely love it. i'll probably talk more about it when it actually appears in the show.

we finally learned where luz is from! connecticut! like connecticut clark! unfortunately, that means my headcanon of her being from gravity falls can't be canon. oh well.

oh! luz's pajamas! super cute! forgot to mention those.

i think it's sweet that luz wanted to take the little rascal back to the nest with the other palismen. i would have expected her to come back in the night solely to find her palisman, but that wasn't her original intention. i like that.

personally, i would love to see luz's magic pet shop. has someone drawn that yet? can i draw that?

this has been pointed out before, but i found it hilarious that the golden guard knows the show's theme. best fourth-wall break ever.

okay, how did the golden guard get back on the ship?! that made no sense to me. am i missing something?

OH IT WAS BECAUSE OF THE STAFF! i'm a dumbass. he literally SAYS that.

very clever of luz to make a glyph with skid marks on the ground. she's very resourceful.

kikimora's hand-dragon-thing is really weird and cool. i kinda like it. can it be my palisman?

i watched this episode with my sister (after my initial viewing) and she thought the golden guard was cute. it was kinda funny. she's 14, so it's less creepy than, say, a 21-year-old.

i loved the scene parodying movies like sleeping beauty and snow white, where it looks like she's about to kiss him but she slaps him instead. hilarious.

when i was younger, my sister would lick my hand when i would cover her mouth with my hand. i thought it was funny that the golden guard did the same.

the bags under the golden guard's eyes remind me of virgil from sanders sides. they're very similar characters, actually.

luz's "too slow" was hilarious. she's great. i love her.

in different circumstances, luz and the golden guard would be best friends, nerding out together about wild magic. i really hope they can be like that in the future.

so the golden guard's name is hunter! honestly, not the most creative name. i saw a headcanon where he didn't really have a name but belos calls him "hunter" because that's what he does. i like that idea.

speaking of which, hunter's name reveal reminded me of janus's name reveal in sanders sides. man, i have sanders sides on the brain, don't i?

i'm glad hunter ended up protecting luz instead of betraying her like he was going to do originally. good for him.

the ending

eda is such a good mom. she robbed the garden club just so luz could make her own palisman.

i wonder if hunter's forehead injury will scar over too. it'd be a cool reminder of how awful the emperor's coven really is

i'm honestly really glad that the little rascal wasn't luz's palisman. good job subverting expectations, owl crew.

predictions

i promised i'd talk about my theories about hunter's origins here, and i'm no liar. i think he's the descendant of phillip wittebane (from the last episode). after all, he mentioned that most of his family didn't have magical ability, like him.

i'm not sure if belos is his actual uncle or not. i think he might be, since we haven't seen him do actual magic without his staff-- and remember, humans can use staffs.

i personally headcanon hunter to also be related to the blight family. maybe he's amity's cousin. i think that would be really funny.

as for luz's palisman, i have no idea what it'll be. probably an owl, but i sincerely hope not. maybe an otter! (with a dark side.)

[hacked-by-jake]

Hey Ho! :D

You will always find this post in my blog description.🥰

(Well, since there’s not really much information about me, here’s a post of things you’ve been interested in and some facts about me.)

(Thanks to the Anon for the motivation to do this here! <3)

-----

So, Hi! You can call me HBJ! I don’t want to mention my real name and age here. 😁

I started publishing my fanfictions here on Tumblr a little over a year ago and haven’t left since. xD

My mother tongue is not English, I am from Germany. So if you find some mistakes, please excuse it, I’m doing my best and still learning. <3

I honestly have no idea what to write here so, have fun, if anyone reads through this here. 😂 At least that’s a little bit of me. :D

>The Ask Box is always open. So feel free to ask a question if you are interested (but I want to warn you, I am not answering everything, but I will let you know in this case) < <3

-------------------------------------------

Let's start! ❤️🌹🎭

-------------------------------------------

First of all 10 Random Facts about me. This was asked by an anon. Here is the original post.

I’m a giant nerd, there’s no place in my room that’s not full of merchandise.

I prefer to read stories that are self-published, for example here on Tumblr or on other sites, rather than real books.

I have a problem with jackets, I have tons of them.

I usually dye my hair according to the colors of characters I like.It all started with green/purple - because of the Joker. And the last color I have at the moment is all green because of Joker / Loki from Marvel (Oups)

Almost all tattoos I have are about fictional characters (also Oups)

No one, really nobody knows what books/stories I read because that’s something very private to me.

I listen to music 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Also, it’s hard for me / I don’t like to talk about the music I listen to because this is very intimate for me for some reason.

When I watch a series, it’s at least 2 times behind each other, sometimes more often. But never just once.

Films that I watch for the first time and that excite me, I watch every second that I have time. When the movie is over, I start again unless there are several parts. But then I always watch my favorite one 500 times.

-----

Random questions from you.

(Asked by @procrastinatingrobin) -One place that you'd like to travel at least once in your life?

---- One of my biggest wishes is (what a cliché xD) New York. For example the “Joker Stairs”, which is one of my biggest dreams. *-*

I would love to travel to a lot of locations from my favorite movies/series.🤭

America in general is a dream for me (a German potato 😂😅).

But there are so many beautiful places to which I want to go. For example, I would love to travel to Tenerife. I know someone who lives there and every time I see pictures I get very jealous. xD

Unfortunately, I’m incredibly afraid of flying, so if that doesn’t improve, I’ll never get anywhere near these places.😫😂😂

---

(Asked by Anon) How many tattoos do you have?😄

I love tattoo questions. 😂🤭At the moment I have eleven tattoos🥰

---

(Asked by Anon) -What's your favorite animal?

Hmmm I don’t really know, I think they are dogs because I have a dog now. *-* But to be honest, turtles are so cool.🤔 My brother has a turtle named: Schiggy (based on Pokémon)🤭

---

(Asked by Anon) -The stupidest thing that ever happened to you?

Ohhh hahaha there I have something good!😅Story Time with Hbj xD

Okay: As some might know, I’m a big fan of The Joker by DC.🃏Well, in 2019, the Joker movie with Joaquin Phoenix came to the cinemas and I was at the cinema premiere with my best friend. And the movie was absolutely amazing. I really wanted to watch the movie again..Aaaaand I was lucky because my best friend’s boyfriend also wanted to see the movie in the cinema so I went back to the cinema 5 days later to watch the movie again. I was so excited and so extremely happy that I trembled and could not stand still. xD And for these two reasons, I accidentally dropped my not really old phone. It just fell straight down on the stones in front of the cinema and the display was completely broken..Well, what can I say? I needed a new one.. 😂😅But the movie was still fantastic!😍🤭This is actually one of the stupidest things that ever happened to me. xD

---

(Asked by @kyras-things) What are the little things that make your day happiest?

Oh that’s a really nice question! *-*Well, I have really little things that can make me happy. :)-It is enough for me when I wake up tomorrow and see my merchandise shelf😅 (This is right in front of my bed)This is for most something really small but for me really great and makes me happy. <3Other things are music, stroking my dog, messages on my phone, my hair color, my tattoos, when the sun is shining in the morning, coffee, riding longboard and of course (yes this is my absolute serious and not only so therefore said) tumblr and thus at the same time Duskwood. 💕I think these are the most important things. 🤭All I need is to see something that matters to me.😅🥰

---

(Asked by @leetjep) Seriously....Do you ever sleep?

Very rarely😂 Last time I slept was in fall.😂

---

(Asked by Anon) Ios or android?

Only related to the phone: Android.Yes, I stand by it!😂

---

(Asked by @booklover-01040) Hello!I was wondering have you got any paranormal or creepy experiences? If no, then a nightmare that you will never forget.

Hey Ho! In fact, I haven’t experienced any paranormal things. Which is probably also because I don’t believe in that and I’ve found a rational cause for everything so far. (Important: I don’t believe in it, but I don’t say it doesn’t exist, I don’t want anyone to feel attacked)

And a nightmare I’ll never forget? In fact, I can’t think of any one. There’s a dream I’ve have since I was a kid: It’s about two little wolves trying to eat me. xD And I can even tell where that came from.

The movie to blame for this is: Twilight xD

Yep… When I first watched this movie, I was way too young, and as a child I was always very anxious. Just such things and horror movies in general were terrible for me (today it is actually no longer so) (Even the dream is no longer bad today and yet it has a bitter aftertaste of childhood.)

In any case, I was much too young and that did not let me go back then. xD But a really unsettling dream I had was: Well.. Do you know the Pink Panther? 😂

I once dreamed that the Panther “chased” me through an endless long corridor. It was an endless corridor in pink with countless doors. He sang the theme song and threw clocks at me…😅 And that went on all night until I woke up.

(This, by the way, had a trigger too. A German song (the rapper only took the melody of the title music and wrote his own lyrics. The text isn’t really cool though and that’s the reason)

----

(Asked by @dreamer-writer-fangirl) What color is your hair?

Well, at the moment my hair is green🤭

Check HERE and HERE for pictures.

----

(Asked by Anon) Is your brother younger or older than you?🤗

My brother is older than me.🥰

----

(Asked by Anon) Do you have a nickname?

Yes, actually I have one. I can even say it because it has nothing to do with my real name. :D But please don’t laugh at me. 😂Well, I have the loving nickname: Little Onion. yep…My mom gave me that name for some reasons. 😂

----

(Asked by Anon) some information about your dancing?😄 you mentioned it a few days ago💃

Yeah, well, I danced for 13 years, in different groups, also several groups at the same time. :D It was the hip hop/breakdance direction. But at some point I stopped because I didn’t enjoy it in the groups anymore and time was getting tighter. :/ Unfortunately, there was and is no real other groups here, which is why I stopped completely and now only dance for myself and just for fun.🤭

--

(Asked by Anon) What's your favourite food ?

Uhhhm, I think everything with pasta is my favorite food.😂 I can eat noodles all day. 🤭🍝🍜Well, and of course, Pizza!🍕Pizza is adorable. 😂

----

(Asked by Anon) What type of video games do you like to play?

I don’t really have a favorite type / genre, I don’t play video games that often. I’m actually playing what looks exciting to me without any particular genre or type. 😁🤭

But if I do, I guess I’m the most Nintendo type. So most of the games I play are related to Nintendo. <3

--

(Asked by @mirajane01040-duskwoodmemes) Do you play... Minecraft?

I used to play a lot of Minecraft, but nowadays not so much, and if so, then only the mobile version. This is fun for in between and dispels the boredom. I even started building Duskwood several times, but never finished it. xD Well, yes, sometimes I play Minecraft.

Answer a few days later: Yes, I do!

---

(Asked by Anon) If you could be a fictional character, who would it be and why?

Oh, there are a few. xDBut the three main characters for me: Evey Hammond because of V for Vendetta. Harley Quinn because of The Joker. And, of course, my MC because of Jake. 🤭I know, very superficial reasons but I hope they are enough for you, because these are the main reasons xD 😅🤭

---

(Asked by Anon) Hey hbj i'm curiousFamily or a career? 😋

I choose the career.🤭 After that, there is still enough time, and who says that not both work?😉

---

(Asked by Anon) do you like alcohol?🍷

No, absolutely no. Not a little bit.

---

(Asked by Anon) What is your favorite drink?

If I don’t drink coffee, I only drink sparkling water, my entire life. I very rarely drink something different. Water for life! 🧊

---------------------

Either/or questions from you.

(Asked by @duskwood-legacies) -What would you rather see, Northern Lights or sky lanterns?

That’s easy for me🤭 Northern Lights! If you ask me.. that is magical! *-* (Well, unless it’s like “Tangled” and I get a Flynn Rider.. then sky lanterns xD)

---

(Asked by @duskwood-legacies) -Strawberries or raspberries?

Definitely: Strawberries🍓 *-*

---

(Asked by@duskwood-legacies) Do you prefer angst or fluff?

I think it depends on the general mood I’m in.🤔 I think the best is angst with happy ending.😁

---

(Asked by@duskwood-legacies) Milk or cereal first?

Obviously: Cereal first! 😂🥣

---

(Asked by @justubi) Would you rather have a nosy neighbor pr noisy neighbor?

Unfortunately, I have both. xD But if I could choose, I would opt for the noisy neighbor as I wear headphones all day anyway.😂

---

(Asked by @justubi) Would you rather be poor but love your job or rich but absolutely hate your job?

One hundred percent and without having to think about: poor and love my job!I could never have a job I don’t like. This is a real horror imagination for me😂

---

(Asked by @kyras-things ) Prefer to write fanfics or read them?

Oh that’s a really hard question for me! 🤔 I can’t really make up my mind, but I think I’d rather read than write myself. With stories of others I can better dive into another world and relax. 🤭Because when I write, five hundred other thoughts always fly around in my head and I have to decide how to write something etc.I love writing but sometimes I wish I only had to think about a story and it would be written on a sheet right away. xD <3

---

(Asked by @leetjep) Would you rather have one eye in the middle of your head or two noses?

I take the eye in the middle of my head. 😂Then I would make the Jake eye as a tattoo around it, which would be really cool.🤭

---

(Continues on new asks)
