🥊🎯✂️

From the ask game for Nikolaj

Aww Nikko, my OC who could never catch a break. The darker Gemini sniper.

🥊 -What do they love to do? What do they hate to do?

Kolya used to enjoy art. He liked sketching birds. Liked drawing trees and the looming, gloomy architecture of their neighborhood. His mother used to encourage him to draw- but when she passed he lost most inspiration. His favorite color to color with, Ironically, was red. He'd end up seeing and painting with it more in his future.

CW: violence, abuse, animal abuse, murder

Kolya hated the "conditioning" his uncle and father would put him through to toughen him up. His trauma made it easier to depersonalize and sort of do things by instinct. He went from sketching birds to shooting birds. Then dogs, which he had to get through until he couldn't cry about it anymore- and then people tied up-

and then people running.

They weren't satisfied with the young man's target practice. They had to see if he was just as good with something moving and breathing. But crybaby Kolya's results were skewed by his emotions- which were eagerly repurposed into "proper aggression." as the men in his life groomed him and his brother to become untouchable.

🎯 -What do they do best?

Kolya is good at doing what he's told. The problem is- You have to be very specific and sometimes yell to get your point across for urgency. But he never questions why or how- he will give his 100% even if you give him something he can't do.

Oh, and he's pretty good at bird calls.

✂️ - What is one of your OC’s worst memories?

One of Kolya's most difficult memories was the day he and his brother finally joined the military, serving under a then Lieutenant Colonel Volkov, a trusted ally of the family. While Nikita found himself at home as a soldier, Nikolay was subject to hazing and bullying. While his brother was more likeable, Kolya had to work to earn the trust of his fellow soldiers who found him to be "creepy" and "fucking weird". One time he blacked out during a one to one training session with a particularly annoying opponent, and came back to his brother trying to snap him out of it, his partner's face fucked up and blood on the shy boy's fists.

He cried when he was alone that day- realizing that this was going to be his life. And that if he wanted any chance of doing this right, he couldn't lose control.

However, it became clear as the boys reached Junior Lieutenant by MW3, that Makarov wanted to weaponize his nephew's episodes.

hey!! me and my friends decided to make a rotomblr account to talk about our journey. so here we are!

my name’s Miku, but you can call me Mind! i’m from Johto and i have 3 gym badges. i was in the middle of my journey before something happened (still not sure what lol) which led to me getting psychic powers. we’re still working on resolving that issue so if things around you just feel… unstable, that might be why. but it sounds like there’s already a bajillion crazy things happening across the multiverse so it may not be lol. me and all my friends share this account so feel free to talk to any of us :)

//ooc

An unreality pokemon irl blog by @determinedowl23. This takes place during an au where the Arceus Plates were shattered and their pieces got scattered across the multiverse and landed in possession of the Mikus, who are trying to put them all back together to restore peace to everything.

Each Miku signs off with their own emoji both in the post itself and the tags. I also tag them with “#plv [nickname]” for another way to find them if you don’t remember the emojis. Every original post is tagged as #plvposting”

OOC posts will be tagged as such and any time I comment ooc there will be two slashes before it (like above the cut). I am a minor, and so are many of the Mikus, so no nsfw

No magic anons, but Pelipper mail is okay! In general I’m probably not gonna go out of my way to interact with people too much just to keep myself focused- my priority is making this blog a fun place for me to yap about my au more than anything else.

Unreality warning for pretty much anything on here lol

Annon-Guy: Fighting Game Stuff today! *Ahem* What's your opinion on Boxers 🥊 in fighting games? In my opinion, in games like Street Fighter (Balrog and Dudley), Power Stone (Falcon), Bloody Roar (Yugo the Wolf after BR1) and Persona 4 Arena (Akihiko), they're fine and fun characters. Likewise in a game like Tekken (Steve Fox), they're a no go for me (I beat Tekken 5 with Steve though, but he was hard to use since he doesn't kick).

You mention Boxers/Brawlers, and the first character that comes to my mind is Burai Yamato from Big Bang Beat.

Perhaps he's a little obscure for most who play fighting games, but to me he was very intuitive as a character to play as!

For many years now, I have, on occasion watched Boxing-themed anime, like Hajime no Ippo (Fighting Spirit), and Tomorrow's Joe (Ashita no Joe)...

There are maybe only a handful of games (or characters) that really express the art of boxing.

I must also confess, that when I was in my teens, I actually TOOK up some boxing training for self-defense... and you must NEVER underestimate people who are exclusively capable with their fists! Especially since they use every "other" part of their body to enhance their punches!

"Iron Whirlwind" Gottfried (may he rest in peace) of Castelia would probably be the "Guilty Gear" equivalent of a boxer, and could generate massive gusts of wind with his punches, dispelling Venom's Ball Formations when the two of them fought!

Even just clapping his hands together could create a sonic-boom like explosion of sound! Some boxers can make that noise just by whipping their arms with a swift *snap* sound!

It's just unfortunate that Gottfried died before he could be added to Guilty Gear's roster! (He died during the events of Night of Knives, in case you missed the Drama CD...)

Poke-moves Meme.

List a Pokémon move for each type that applies to your muse!

🍞[ NORMAL ] Mind Reader             The user senses the target's movements with its mind to ensure its next attack does not miss the target.

🥊[ FIGHTING ] Circle Throw             The target is thrown, and a different Pokémon is dragged out. In the wild, this ends a battle against a single Pokémon.

🦢 [ FLYING ] Acrobatics             The user nimbly strikes the target. If the user is not holding an item, this attack inflicts massive damage.

🧪[ POISON ] Purify             The user heals the target's status condition. If the move succeeds, it also restores the user's own HP.

⛰️[ GROUND ] High Horsepower             The user fiercely attacks the target using its entire body.

💎[ ROCK ] Stone Axe             The user swings its stone axes at the target, aiming to land a critical hit. Stone splinters left behind by this attack continue to damage the target for several turns.

🐞[ BUG ] Defend Order             The user calls out its underlings to shield its body, raising its Defense and Sp. Def stats.

👻[ GHOST ] Bitter Malice             The user attacks its target with spine-chilling resentment. This may also leave the target with frostbite. This move's power is doubled if the target has a status condition.

🔪[ STEEL ] King’s Shield             The user takes a defensive stance while it protects itself from damage. It also lowers the Attack stat of any attacker who makes direct contact.

🔥[ FIRE ] Raging Fury             The user rampages and spews vicious flames to inflict damage on the target, then becomes fixated on using this move.

🌊[ WATER ] Life Dew             The user scatters mysterious water around and restores the HP of itself and its ally Pokémon in the battle.

🌿[ GRASS ] Grav Apple             The user inflicts damage by dropping an apple from high above. This also lowers the target's Defense stat.

⚡[ ELECTRIC ] Charge             The user boosts the power of the Electric move it uses on the next turn. This also raises the user's Sp. Def stat.

🔮[ PSYCHIC ] Take Heart             The user lifts its spirits, healing its own status conditions and raising its offensive and defensive stats.

🧊[ ICE ] Ice Hammer             The user swings and hits with its strong, heavy fist. It lowers the user's Speed, however.

🐉[ DRAGON ] Dual Chop             The user attacks its target by hitting it with brutal strikes. The target is hit twice in a row.

💀[ DARK ] Dark Pulse             The user releases a horrible aura imbued with dark thoughts. This may also make the target flinch.

🌸[ FAIRY ] Springtide Storm             The user attacks by wrapping the target in fierce winds brimming with love and hate. This move's additional effects depend on the user's form.

🍞[ NORMAL ] Endure             The user endures any attack with at least 1 HP. Its chance of failing rises if it is used in succession.

🥊[ FIGHTING ] Aura Sphere           The user looses a blast of aura power from deep within its body at the target. This move is certain to hit.

🦢 [ FLYING ] Defog           A strong wind blows away the target's barriers such as Reflect or Light Screen. This also lowers the target's evasiveness.

🧪[ POISON ] Cross Poison           A slashing attack with a poisonous blade that may also poison the target. Critical hits land more easily.

⛰️[ GROUND ] Land’s Wrath           The user gathers the energy of the land and focuses that power on opposing Pokémon to damage them.

💎[ ROCK ] Ancient Power           The user attacks with a prehistoric power. This may also raise all the user's stats at once.

🐞[ BUG ] Silver Wind           The target is attacked with powdery scales blown by the wind. This may also raise all the user's stats.

👻[ GHOST ] Shadow Foce           The user cloaks itself in darkness as it attacks. Incoming moves also become more likely to miss.

🔪[ STEEL ] Shelter           The user makes its skin as hard as an iron shield, raising its defensive stats. Incoming moves also become more likely to miss.

🔥[ FIRE ] Inferno           The user attacks by engulfing the target in an intense fire. This leaves the target with a burn.

🌊[ WATER ] Whirlpool           The user traps the target in a violent swirling whirlpool for four to five turns.

🌿[ GRASS ] Energy Ball           The user draws power from nature and fires it at the target. This may also lower the target's Sp. Def stat.

⚡[ ELECTRIC ] Eerie Impulse           The user's body generates an eerie impulse. Exposing the target to it harshly lowers the target's Sp. Atk stat.

🔮[ PSYCHIC ] Esper Wing           The user slashes the target with aura-enriched wings. This move has a heightened chance of landing a critical hit.

🧊[ ICE ] Blizzard           A howling blizzard is summoned to strike opposing Pokémon. This may also leave the opposing Pokémon frozen.

🐉[ DRAGON ] Dragon Energy           Converting its life-force into power, the user attacks opposing Pokémon. The lower the user's HP, the lower the move's power.

💀[ DARK ] Topsy-Turvy           All stat changes affecting the target turn topsy-turvy and become the opposite of what they were.

🌸[ FAIRY ] Spirit Break           The user attacks the target with so much force that it could break the target's spirit. This also lowers the target's Sp. Atk stat.

an. hi. its me! Giselle, or gi, or gigi to few (not to be confused w gg, that is one of my moots. she makes really cool art.) n e ways here is the awaited Prologue for Iron Fist. Oh goodness I'm so nervous. I just want to make a few things clear. the reader is an author (obvs). She's recently graduated uni and is Latina! I write with a woc!r in mind always. I try to be as inclusive as possible, pero porque soy Mexicana, r might lean towards being more Mexican but I'll try to keep her Spanish standard and not be too specific to my family's culture. much love! hope you enjoy <3

please don't forget to reblog! likes do nothing to boost engagement.

Your foot taps against the floor. The damn blank document stares back at you. Mocking you is what it’s really doing. Fuck you, you think, I achieved my goal. I published a book and it is a damn bestseller! Only problem is that the readers want more. It’s been… some time since your first book. And sure, Jess said you can take a break before starting a new project. But you also know that it’s good to ride on existing publicity. At least be able to make an announcement that you’re writing something while all this excitement lasts. Maybe you should write something about vampires. You love vampires and how they fit into romance and how them drinking blood is a euphemism just a bit away from, the whole cannibalism-equals-all-consuming-love trope and how when a vampire attacks it’s often an allegory for rape and— but you have nothing to add to the conversation. You have nothing new to say, no new perspective or hot take, or twist. You have nothing. No ideas.

Not a single word on the page.

You have an idea, leaning forward to peck the keyboard. “F-u-c-k. T-h-i-s!” You highlight the text and italicize it.

Fuck this. At least it’s words on the page.

You reach for your cup and take a sip. “If all else fails I can ride on the rest of the signing bonus and royalties for a bit since the book is doing good, and once that dries up, I can apply to be circulation assistant at a library or something.” You sigh and take another sip. “But nobody has to know for now.” You get up, searching for your phone. You find it resting on the arm of the couch, you grab it, sliding onto the cushions, resting your head where your phone just was. “God, don’t make me a one hit wonder, I wanna be a star. I wanna be the one to push that bitch Colleen Hoover into obsoletion. Please God. Please.”

You open your phone and look for your mother on speed dial.

“Hola, nena!” Your mama’s voice is happy, she must be having a good day. You move into the kitchen. You need a snack.

“Hey, mama, how are you?” You hold the cell with your shoulder as you look through your pantry.

“Good, good,” you find a pack of roasted seaweed snacks and grab it.

“I went on a date anoche.” Your shoulder drops and the pack of seaweed slips out of your grasp.

Mi mami fue a una cita. Con un man! You stand there, trying to process that she is actually back on the dating scene.

“How did it—” you aren’t holding your phone anymore. You use the wall as support to lower yourself to pick up your phone and snack.

“—ay, mami, lo siento, mi cellular se cayo de mi mano.”

“Todo bien, hija! I’m glad you’re ok.”

“Yeah, yeah, I’m ok, I’m ok. Anyways— how was the date? What’s he like? Am I going to have a stepfather soon?” you joke.

“My time for marriage is gone, muñeca, I’m just looking for companionship, pero, tu lo sabes.” You hear some subtle clinking in the background of the call, she must be stirring her coffee. You open your snack and park yourself on the couch. “Are you writing?” Ugh. Not you, too.

“I was, just finished for a bit before I called you.”

“You called me to procrastinate.” You choke on your seaweed from the accusation.

You clear your throat, “I called to check in with you. I call you practically every day.”

“But right now you called me to check up on me as an excuse to not write. Nena, I know you.”

“Okay, fine. I might be having some writer’s block,” you admit, sighing.

“And that’s okay, nena, but then you need to get out, get some inspiration. Allow the world to give you a story.” There’s mama, with her easier-said-than-done advice. But, maybe you should get out of the house.

“Alright, I’ll go out soon.”

“Tonight,”

“—I will go out to the Chinese place across the street and nothing more. I’ll talk with Hobie when he gets back to see if he has any ideas.” You hear your mama make a noise in her throat.

“You still live with that boy?” Here it comes. You’ve lived with Hobie Brown for three years and have known him for five. She’s always been apprehensive of him, since he’s radical and looks like he’s been in jail, with all the metal in his face, and why does his hair look like that? But Hobie is the one who’s kept you sane all these years. He’s held you while you cried and pushed out of your comfort zone when you were getting too stuck into your routines, most likely by dragging you to a concert or a protest. You help him thrift and flip clothes and ever since that one time his stylist had an emergency and canceled, you now help him tighten his wicks every so often. On days like that the two of you stay in, watching nostalgic movies and listening to any demos he’s recorded recently. He’s like a brother to you at this point.

“Yes, mama, I still live with Hobie. Nothing’s changed.” You move the phone down to your chest and take a deep breath.

“I didn’t like him when I first met him,” you clench your jaw as she continues— “…and although he’s one of those kids, I can tell he is a good boy. I’m glad he takes care of you.” You relax. “But it wouldn’t hurt to have someone you could kiss.” “It would be nice, but right now it’s not happening.” “Alright, muñeca. I’ll leave you alone for now, but keep your eyes open for a nice man.”

“I will, con cuidado, mami, besitos.” You make a kissing noise into the phone, and she responds with a goodbye of her own, and you wait for her to hang up the call.

You sigh, and look at the coffee table. Hobie left his song book at home, weird. It’s open to the song he was working on the other day. It’s a slower song, you can still hear the melody. You drum your fingers to the tune. He’s on an unfinished verse. You pick up a pen from the little catch-all dish and scribble down a line or two.

…

Hobie weaves through the roar of chattering, anticipating fans and into the tunnel, and walks past employees and into Miguel's prep room to see him tying his shoes. “Hey,” Miguel looks up. “Hey.”

“Are you excited?” He moves to sit by the boxer, shimmying up against his shoulder.

“Haven’t really been excited for one of these in a while.” Miguel breathes.

“Well, one step closer to retirement!” Hobie bounces out of his seat. He turns to face his friend, putting a hand on his shoulder. “You’re gonna do great, you big fuckin’ bear of a man.” He ruffle’s Miguel’s hair.

Miguel gives a half-ass hum in response.

“Well then, I’ll be out there, mate, cheerin’ you on.” He puts his hands in his vest pockets and walks out the room.

As he reaches the empty doorframe, Miguel speaks up. “Thank you, Hobie.”

“Anything for you, mate.” Hobie nods and goes to join the audience. Miguel fastens his gloves and puts on his robe. He warms up waiting for his coach.

“Ready, O’Hara?”

Miguel turns around. “Always ready for a fight.” He clenches his jaw. Walking down that hallway, the festive colors lighting up his path and the music blaring, he does his little bit, the movements molded into muscle memory.

This is it. This is his last year fighting. If he gets world champ again, he’s free.

Soon, he gets to fight his last fight. And dammit, the world championship will be his last match. Then, he’s never gonna have to come back.

He weaves under the ropes, entering the ring. Sitting on the stool, he shrugs off the robe and lets Carlos put the mouthguard in.

“You are going to show this guy exactly why people call you el oso!” Miguel beats his gloves together and nods. He might not like his job right now, but he really wants to hit something and goddammit if his opponent doesn’t look so beatable right now.

Coach Carlos steps out of the way, and Miguel stands to walk to the ref as he calls for him to center.

“We went over the rules in the dressing room.” Right before Hobie got here. “I want to remind you to protect yourself at all times, and obey my commands.” Ring the damn bell already. “God bless you both,” I don’t need it but this kid might. “Touch up,” here we go. He touches gloves with his newbie opponent and each goes back to their respective corners.

Miguel takes an orthodox stance.

The bell rings.

Miguel lands the first punch. He also lands the last.
