Babies🔥🍙

Both Kabu and Larry have resting grump faces but they're misleading! Kabu's very friendly and laughs easily, and Larry is polite (if very tired) and even treats you to a meal after you beat his gym. It's just very cute to me.

When I love a fictional male character, I want to see him happy and being loved, in all ways *I wanna hug and crush his face between my arms*

Being loved in all ways I mean in all ways and the Aokab ship🍙🔥 and my Yumeship🐥🔥 is the best excuse to do this✨

Kabu is… so bebe🥺🔥💕

[torchiclover]

RIKA HAHHAHSH😂💕💖 i love this sm

Their dynamic fr

[torchiclover]

Kabu is shorter than the average men and Larry is considerably tall🤣

I loved it because I found it funny that in Pokemon Masters EX they were included together because they are totally opposite (apart from height, also personalities) even so they both admire the potential that the other has in Pokemon battles!☺️💕

It was brought to my attention how fucking SHORT kabu is…is kabu short or is larry just really tall let me know silverstreakshipping nation🫡 also i want to shaboing both of them just a thought

edit: the answer is both. Kabu is about 5’4 and Larry is like 6’3

[torchiclover]

*Jumps with happiness at how beautiful the drawing looks*

I feel like they would have a very good coexistence if they live together (look how happy their pokemons look, aww)💖💕💖💕🍙🔥

🔥SILVERSTREAKSHIPPING WEEK!!!🍙

🍙DAY 2: LIVING TOGETHER🔥

Larry’s ranting about work and Kabu’s all ears.

In the Aokabu discord server @torchiclover hosts, we came up with the headcanon that since Larry probably lived through the '80s he'd be really into grunge as a teen/young adult. So he has a few Nirvana shirts.

A little detail that I didn't mention is that I made the face on the Nirvana logo look like Mimikyu because I found a picture of that while looking for a reference. Just a little thing to integrate more into the Pokèmon world.

HAHDHFHFH LARRY CONFUSED, what a baby🥺💕💖💕

Bebes🛐😩🍙🔥💕💖💕

Poor Kabu 🥲

[torchiclover]

JUST, WOW😳💕💖💕

This was lovely to read!!

You can't imagine how much fun I had reading Larry, I could really imagine him acting and saying those things, it's wonderful!!☺️🥹

#silverstreakshippingweek yeah!!!

🔥🍙Day 1: Confession / Battle🍙🔥

A blazing fire engulfs Centiskorch's long body as he curls himself into a ring, rolling in a blur at his target. In the blink of an eye, Staraptor takes flight, just missing those barreling flames. Kabu watches his opponent with a seasoned Leader's eye. Larry is an experienced Gym Leader as well, but Kabu's thrown him off guard. Larry tenses, fully at attention. This is not the routine series of battle commands he's so used to. Kabu hides his pleased smile as he assumes coach mode.

"Use Brave Bird," Larry orders his hovering Pokemon. Staraptor's body glows with a blue aura, which appears to shield him from the flames. He dives down and straight at Centiskorch, tackling him head-on. Staraptor recoils from the intense attack, shaking off the damage done to himself.

Centiskorch is not in much better shape. "Now, while it's stunned, Fire Spin!" shouts Kabu.

Larry clenches a fist. He's really invested in this battle, and Kabu is pleased to see it. "Quick, Aerial Ace!" he shouts, almost panicked. In a grey blur, Staraptor speeds through the spinning flames to attack Centiskorch directly, beak first. It's extremely effective — Centiskorch wobbles while the flames he's controlling vanish into thin air. And then all nine feet of him collapse to the ground.

"Ah—" Larry says softly, the stunned look having not left his grey eyes.

"Congratulations." Kabu's smile comes out in full force now. "I knew you had a fire in you. We just had to bring it out one way or another."

Larry just pets the back of his Staraptor’s neck, lost in thought. “Huh,” he answers after a moment. “I really didn’t think we’d beat you.”

Staraptor whips around to his trainer with an indignant squawk. “Sorry,” Larry tells him. “But Kabu’s strong. He puts his all into battling, he’s determined to win.”

“In the end, I just couldn’t beat a member of the Elite Four.” Kabu strides across the field to join the winners. “You two are strong as well. I’m quite impressed.” He holds his hand out to Staraptor, and, earning his approval, starts stroking his neck feathers. “I could benefit from training with some of your tactics. There’s still a lot I have to learn.”

“Eh.” Larry shrugs. “I don’t think I do anything that calculated. Just whatever seems best for the situation. Makes sense to me.”

Kabu laughs sharply. “Ha! A genius at work. And he doesn’t even know it. So, per the terms of our wager, it appears I owe you dinner.”

Larry’s stomach lets out an audible growl. “Mm… that’s a good idea. Battles tend to increase my appetite.”

Kabu grins up at him. Larry’s face is expressionless, but Kabu can tell from his eyes (at least, from this angle) that he’s proud of his win and eager for a nice meal.

"Hmm… I'm up for anything, really," Larry says with a shrug.

"Well, what's your favorite dish?"

Larry rubs the back of his neck, staring off to the side. "Honestly? I really like onigiri. They're simple, but you can add just about any flavor you want. Plain ones are good too."

"I know just the place, then. I passed it on my jog this morning. I could go for an onigiri or two myself, now that you mention it. Or some nigiri."

"Tatsugiri's?" Larry asks. "I went there for my first meal in Pasio. It's excellent." He sends his Staraptor back to his ball as the two of them leave the battlefield.

"Glad to hear it! Mind if I grab a shower first? I worked up a bit of a sweat there."

"Uh… I guess not, but you look fine. It's just a friendly bet dinner, not a business meeting."

Kabu laughs softly, shaking his head. "Larry, I've got a bit of a confession to make."

"Oh?"

"I challenged you to a battle and set that wager so I'd have a good reason to ask you to dinner."

Larry blinks. "Mm? You could've just said 'let's go to dinner.' There's no need to overcomplicate things."

"True… but as a fellow Gym Leader, I knew you'd enjoy going up against me. Analyzing my skill, studying my reactions. As I did yours. I think we're on the same page here. I'd like to take you out to dinner… as a date."

"Oh," says Larry. Then his thick eyebrows shoot up to his hairline. "Ohhh."

"What do you say?" Kabu smiles, holding back laughter at how cute he looks stun-spored like that.

"I'd say you want to go out with a boring guy like me?"

"Sure I do. And you're not so boring. I felt your passion on the battlefield, and I know there's more where that came from."

Larry flushes, clearing his throat and loosening his tie. "Guess I'd better go get cleaned up a bit too…"

"That's the spirit." Kabu pats his back. It's great fun making him flustered. This is going to be a delightful evening.
