i can’t help but laugh thinking about what it must’ve been like to be Rhys Darby filming that mermaid scene because like imagine you’re this silly stand-up comedian who does the occasional gag role and then your old pal who’s a Hollywood legend now hits you up and is like “hey wanna reprise Murray from flight of the conchords but as a pirate” and you’re like okay sure that sounds like a fun and familiar thing to play and then cut to a couple years in and you’re filming a scene where you have to learn how to swim underwater with a whole ass mermaid tail while holding a trident no less so that it can interlace with another scene where you’re fully straight-toned crying over the body of your dead lover. who happens to be your old pal yeah

steve did not bully eddie in "the past" steve was a grade below him for 3 out of 4 years of his high school career freshman steve heard this weird loudass sophomore talking w his friends at 100 decibels in the hallway about fighting elves in the woods or something (steve did not know what larping was nor care to find out) and then he went to class bc are you insane hes not fucking w a sophomore you dont normally fuck w people ahead of your grade especially if they yell at people and wear chains and get into fights in the woods (with elves?) and you dont even have classes w them. you dont even care much about them in the first place beyond passing gossip like HAVE YOU GUYS EVER BEEN IN HIGH SCHOOL. sorry. anyway.

then steve keeps catching this guy in his periphery over the next two years shouting about board games and controversial food opinions and metal bands that steve likes a few songs from but could not ever imagine giving that much of a shit about. like at all. and by (steve's) year 3 the motherfucker is bouncing off the walls giving speeches about what the hell ever and saying he cant fucking WAIT to get out of this FUCKED UP PLACE!!!! YEP ITS TRUE IN LESS THAN ONE MEASLY YEAR ILL BE SAYING MY SWEET SWEET GOODBYES TO THIS BRAINLESS CONFORMIST PRISON!!!! and hardly anyone reacts beyond rolling their eyes or snickering to their friends about it and this includes steve because who cares literally who cares. this guys been causing a ruckus since the beginning of time and hes weird and unpredictable and not worth trying to shove in a locker he would probably evade the attack anyway like a nimble mouse or squirrel he might even try to bite you. and steve didnt shove anybody in lockers in the first place so who cares and yeah he has pretty eyes and a funny way of talking and moving around but WHO CARES

and then steve goes through the first round of nightmarish shit that would become a yearly ordeal and then wraps up junior year in a perfectly normal not haunted whatsoever fashion. and then hes a senior and in his subtly cringefail era (ongoing) and that freak guy is STILL HERE for some reason and kinda pissed off and possibly a bit devastated about it so okay great now steve has a few classes with this angry weirdo loudguy but. crucially. he has had a lot of OTHER SHIT to deal with lately (MONSTERS ARE REAL) (GIRL DIED IN HIS POOL) (GF RESENTS HIM) (HAS NO FRIENDS) (COLLEGE APPS) so the only effect eddie's constantly loudmouthed & often unwarranted input during class ever has is that it adds a little flavor to the constant metaphorical and literal headache of steves life.

and then he goes through round 2 of shit and finishes his senior year with little hope for a satisfying future ahead of him and never once thinks about that guy again except when his fellow grads whisper about oh my godd did you hear that the freak flunked out again hahaha and yep sure enough eddie's not there at the graduation ceremony. and he thinks huh i wonder what his fucking problem is and then he MOVES ON. the end. thats the extent of """their past""" at least in terms of any actual interactions btwn the two of them i promise okay listen to me. i was there

"it's not very noticeable. nowhere near enough to be going 'oh my god' over, you know. once in awhile though there's this tiny little...i'm not sure how to explain it really." she sighed brows furrowed as she tried to find a relatable enough sensation to compare it to with a shake of her head. "definitely passed the point of no return. my doctor estimated around eight weeks so this happened a lot earlier on, but she'll give me a more accurate time frame at my next appointment. i feel like should've known something was up sooner, but i'm not always..." nina paused looking at him for a long moment because she wasn't used to getting in to conversations about the inner workings of her body unless she was with elise or her mother. it felt odd to be sharing such matters with trevaunn, but if they were moving forward together with this then he'd have to get used to hearing about these things right?

"i have pcos so my hormones and cycle kind of just do what they want when they want so it's not weird for me to miss days or just spotting. honestly, i'm shocked this even happened when i've always been put under the impression that i'd end up having fertility issues because of it so i've never really thought too much about if or when i'd be a mom." the woman admitted, especially when she had been focusing on just living her best life and her career anyway. it was all a little overwhelming now, but his calm attitude helped ease some of her concerns and when he confirmed that he had been falling for her she couldn't help, but feel her eyes start to prickle. "stop, you're going to make me cry." she had made a shooing gesture as if trying to swat off the feelings that were bubbling up before finally comfortably settling in to his embrace. the brunette exhaled deeply, melting in to the feel of him sure and stable. "if i havent told you already -- you're an amazing guy." she gave him a tight squeeze pressing a kiss against his cheek.

Trevaunn's acceptance nearly frightened him, but he'd always know he wanted a kid -- at least one. He wasn't getting any younger either, feeling like his thirties were flying by with his newfound success. Maybe this is how things were supposed to go. His whole life had been far from traditional anyway; why bother worrying about it now?

"I didn't think I would. I'm just...sentimental that why -- surprised you ain't figure that out by now," he laughed softly, sitting up to listen intently. It occured to him then that they were in it, speaking about the new life they created. "Did you feel anything yet? How far along are you?" Trey had a slew of questions to ask, but it never crossed his mind that the child might not have been his until the last one. He felt a pang in his chest at the idea -- of disappointment, irrational rage. The movement of her hand distracted him though, freeing up the space for Trey to rest his palm. It settled on the curve of her belly, feeling nothing but warmth, soft flesh, and potential. "I know," he shoot her a look, something between suggestive and humorous. She should know by now how much he adored her body and all its layers. The south raised him to appreciate corn-fed curves. "What's there to think about?" Trey didn't understand her apprehension toward his involvement. "Nina, if you want to keep this child then I want to help you raise 'em. It's simple as that...is this ideal? Probably not, but we're grown. We know life don't always play out that way," he took her hand into his, rubbing his thumb along its backside. "Look. I'm supportive of whatever decision you want to make, but I think we could make it work," he let out a small laugh, "I know it's only be a little while, but I fell for you as soon as I saw you -- fast." Trey confessed, relaxing into the couch. He invited Nina to join him with open arms.

I was cleaning up some broken links on my old silly Pokemon fansite, the Neglected Pokemon Lovers Unite (NPLU), and I realized that it has now been open for 25 years. TWENTY. FIVE. YEARS. That is an ASTONISHING amount of time for a site to stay open! Even if the last substantial update was like back in 2009 lol. The world around it has changed so much, but I think it's still valuable as a time capsule of a certain time on the internet. I wrote up a new essay about it on the site and did some general clean-up here and there.

Anyway to that end, since so much of the fic and art there is so old, I decided to compare Radic's oldest form to his newest! Radic was always a human boy but I just couldn't draw humans at the time so I made him a furry lol. Eventually I figured it out.

I also thought it'd be a neat challenge to mimic my own style back when it was really wonky and bad. And it was! It was kind of fun actually. I don't have too many shots of Radic from back then (it was hard to get art on the internet in the late 90's-early 00's), but I do have a few - hugging Kitsune, two old kiribans if you want to compare. I had a lot more old shots of Parasects though to reference unsurprisingly, they were very triangular lol. I think I did a pretty good job of matching what my art used to look like. I had a clear see-through Gameboy back in the day if you can't tell what Radic is holding lol.

("Isn't Radic the faceless avatar of your gamer self as depicted in Handplates-" yes, but Pokemon!Radic is the only one that actually became his own character, all the rest are shells)

If you do go poking around the NPLU, please keep in mind that almost everything there is very old and most of the fic and art is pretty bad (and shockingly violent). Plz do not judge me! My younger self was a cringey weeb but she was trying very hard. :<
