Hey Lynnie, what sort of gifts have you got....

[SUFFERS IN CURSE ❤️]

E.G.O. Bonus Round

@chaserainbows @ambivalentatmosphere

Ethan - Headless Ichthys/Fluid Sac (Limbus Company)

I don't need to explain this one. It speaks for itself. Dreaming Current and its Aberration, Dream-Devouring Siltcurrent, are also viable options, but I feel like the former doesn't fit him, and the latter is hella Archie-coded, and I don't think Ethan would want to step on Archie's toes like that.

Cordie - Happy Teddy Bear/The Forgotten (LoR)

Hurting Teddy Bear, its Aberration, also fits here, but the original fits more because it resembles Corduroy (as in, the bear) more. The LobCorp E.G.O., Bear Paws, is kinda ugly imo, so he gets the better version. He deserves it.

Mindy - The Adult Who Tells Lies/False Throne (LoR)

The Adult is an amalgamation of the Wicked Witch, Oz, and possibly Mombi, and well... the name is on the tin. In the version of The Wizard of Oz that happens in the PMverse, they trick Ozma, resulting in Ozma being turned into her more monstrous form, before doing the same to the main cast, Jackass Genie-style, before being killed by the Woodsman and having their heart stolen. You cannot get more Mindy-core than this.

Aaron - Shock Centipede/AEDD (Limbus Company)

Literally the only bug or bug-coded Abno that isn't a fairy, ties into hierarchy/familial themes, or doesn't fit his vibe/doesn't look appealing (looking at you, Exuviae,) other than Legerdemain, which... comes from a very specific Abno, let's just say. Granted, he doesn't have many of the same themes going on as the Centipede, but it's a bug. And it looks cool.

Anabel - Wayward Passenger/Dimension Shredder (Limbus Company)

She's a Faller. This is literally the only thing I can give her that would do that concept justice. Also this E.G.O. is so gory that the banner trailer for Yi Sang and Hong Lu's versions had to get censored on YouTube. Yi Sang and Outis' versions also have some of the coolest animations in the game, they're SO GOOD. Also, if you know the concept/lore behind this Abno, it's extra messed-up and it's great.

"No he's right: I was curious and I will not judge him for it."

Blame her cousins on that one.

"Hmm...that does make sense since I don't use my real name for my music career."

[ribombeeloved]

"So girlypop is like active kindness. I can get behind that."

[the-wandering-rock-collector]

Be honest, what are your thoughts on each member of the Elite 4?

send me "be honest…" with a question your muse has been dying to ask mine and they'll answer truthfully.

"Each of them are people who I deeply admire and respect. I consider them some of my closest friends.

Sidney is the closest to me out of the 4 of them. He's reliable and quick-witted. He's the one who'll actually bother trying to find me when I've lost track of time and been out caving and training for too long. I'm sure I drive him mad sometimes with that. But I'm thankful that no matter how frustrating he may find my habit to wander off, he still remains a good friend.

Phoebe feels somewhat like what I guess a little sister must feel like. She always makes me smile, and her passion and skill is something I want to watch continue to grow. Even if ghosts unsettle me, her connection to them is inspiring to me.

Glacia is the kind of person who keeps a level head no matter the situation. Gives great advice and even better knowledge. I'm grateful to have someone like her in the League.

Drake I've known since I was little. My father used to go out fishing with him. To be standing with him as an equal was once a distant hopeful wish. To now be not long standing alongside him, but his boss feels surreal. It's one of the greatest honours."

[melemeleguardian]

Cordie's on his day off from work, and as such he took the opportunity to bug Koko into taking some pictures at the beach. He's using his model knowledge to find the best angles and poses, so he probably really likes his job.

Or maybe Koko was right and his passions are misplaced, but that's not the point right now.

"Come on, look at the camera and hit a cool pose!"

"Cool Pose? You mean like this?" Modeling always did sound fun to Koko. Being able to pose and be sexy and be paid for it? It sounded like a good deal to him.

That being said he wasn't sure if having Cordie direct him was a good or bad idea yet, but there was probably no harm in trying... right?

Anyway, Koko tried posing in a martial arts pose. It was the first thing that came to mind when he heard the word cool pose. He knew his face was just him being awkward but he could fix that after he got the pose right.

"Is this pose okay?"

△ Jules, what’s the scariest experience you’ve had at work?

Send me a △ and ask a really invasive question aimed at my character

"Hm...I'm suppose that would be a four or so.

If we want to be liberal with the term 'at work', nothing is ever going to top The Ultimate Weapon. However, I was an intern at the time, and very intentionally kept as far away from the story for as long as they could keep me away, for obvious reasons.

Since then, I've interviewed my fair share of dangerous people-I've almost built a name on it, really. And it never should feel any less scary, knowing you could easily be walking into a trap or a hostage situation. But I think...it's the things you don't see coming that are scarier still.

For example, there was a time I managed to get some connections to interview a Unovian crime lord. There were a lot of hoops to jump through on my part, and of course I knew they were doing their research on me in the meantime-that's how this usually goes, though it's gotten more streamlined the more stories I publish. But eventually everything was set up.

Before I left the office to catch my plane, I was chatting with my coworkers about various things: plans for a visit back home, an author I'd been interested in recently, bemoaning that I was running low on my favorite perfume, you know the type of thing. Nothing special. My taxi arrived, I said my goodbyes, and I was off.

Everything went smoothly on the trip, and in getting the article written and published. I got home a little late that night, though...

There was a gift on the coffee table, along with a nice bottle of red wine. And a note, from the crime lord:

Sorry that I missed you. I wanted to congratulate you personally, but business calls.

The gift was brand-new bottle of my favorite perfume, which isn't a very mainstream brand. I've always made a point not to drop it's name-it's fun to have a little secret like that, you know?

...Sometimes you underestimate exactly how many strings are being pulled in the shadows. I'm sure I'll hear something from him again now that I've brought it up."

"Ya can't beat me, that ain't fair!!"

The Grimace shake mysteriously gets delivered to Ryuji. Did someone buy it for him?

"Heh, finally I get to try one! Well, bottoms up!"

3)  our muses are hiking and receiver is tired so sender picks them up to carry them the rest of the way.  fish hours

SOME PROMPTS FOR PICKING UP/CARRYING MUSES @ambivalentatmosphere / Ethan

She  had  figured  it  was  about  time  to  really  show  Ethan  around  Alola.  To  have  the  marine  biologist  visit  all  the  lesser  known  spots  that  many  didn't  have  a  chance  to  pay  attention  to.  Especially  during  their  own  island  trials.  In  particular  this  one  took  them  on  a  hike  through  one  of  the  cliff-walks  of  Poni  Island.  Despite  the  barren  landscape,  the  view  from  the  ocean  down  below  was  one  of  the  very  reasons  sightseers  were  attracted  to  the  place.

This  wasn't  the  first  time  Lynn  had  traveled  this  way.  She  did  have  to  make  deliveries  to  the  Battle  Tree  after  all.  Well,  just  not  today.  She  had  something  else  in  mind.

The  only  problem  now  was  that  she  was  having  trouble  keeping  focused  on  it.  It  was  evident  she  had  been  pulling  an  all  nighter.  Even  more  than  one  lately.  Still  she  did  stubbornly  promise  to  be  the  impromptu  guide.  Each  step,  her  hand  reached  out  against  one  of  the  jutting  rock  formations  in  an  effort  to  keep  herself  upright.

Sure  it  wasn't  much  of  an  incline,  but  gradually  her  legs  did  feel  like  they  would  give  out  from  under  her.  No.  That  couldn't  be  right.  She  normally  had  more  stamina  than  this.  Fortunately  she  did  see  a  patch  of  green  on  the  horizon.  "There,"  she  pointed  out  as  she  began  to  lean  against  another  mesa  like  rock  formation.  "It's  just  a  little  bit  further...I  usually  take  my  water  ty...."

She  had  no  time  to  finish  her  sentence,  when  she  suddenly  felt  herself  be  lifted  up.  It  did  definitely  jostle  herself  more  awake.  "Ehh!..Ethan?!"  There  was  a  bit  of  an  instinct  to  protest  at  first.  Each  hand  leveraged  on  his  adjacent  shoulders.  She  inwardly  denied  she  wasn't  tired  at  all.  Still  Ethan  was  one  of  the  few  that  knew  her  better  than  most  others.

Her  scrunched  up  expression  then  soon  softened.  "You  are  going  to  be  just  as  stubborn,  aren't  you?"  she  asked  as  if  she  had  accepted  that  she  no  other  choice  but  to  be  cared.  Hell,  she  was  too  tired  to  really  argue.  That  just  wasn't  her  style.  Instead  she  slouched  down  against  his  form  "Don't  blame  me,  if  ya  get  lost".

Kasai spawns out of nowhere like some kind of evil fairy godmother.

Godfather? You know the metaphor.

"I heard you liked cosplay."

"Are you the ghost of cosplay's past? I'm sorry I couldn't be Super Sailor Kepler for AniCon Orre last year. I was short on funds, please understand!! Her rhinestone skirt was just too pricey at the time!!"

⊗ Sea Mauville, for Lauren

Send me ⊗ + a word for my muse’s thoughts on that subject. | Accepting

"So, in my world, we didn't have something like the Sea Mauville, so I was surprised when I was recommended to go there. I heard that it was originally supposed to be used to extract the natural resources of the ocean when it was decommissioned. If that's true, then I'm really happy that they turned it from something that could be damaging to the ecosystem to what it is today."

Lauren shook her head.

"We all live in this world together and we all should do what we can to keep the world safe and protected, not only for ourselves but for the people and Pokémon around us... and we should always work towards ensuring that we minimize future hardship as well." She nodded.

"Holy Zacian, is that Corduroy? Whoa...I'm a huge fan of him, I love watching his contests!"

[trainerseyes]

Trevor Tierno Serena and Calem for Shauna (individually of course)

"In terms of pokemon battling? I could probably do well enough against Trevor, and possibly even Tierno, but Serena and Calem aren't champions for nothing."

"Worse comes to worse and I have to get into a fistfight between any of them, I'm pretty sure I can take out Trevor and Calem. But Tierno and Serena both are great dancers, so they probably could kick my butt in terms of movement and stamina."
