GUYS I HAD A REALIZATION ABOUT THE VEILGUARD CC

[fangaminghell]

Future Leo's Elite 4. Below is the nitty gritty of them that I have planned so far ( except Heather bc she's honestly the same as she's always been I think)

Fern: Grass/Ghost, Bewitched Forest Field.

Decidueye

Item: Decidum Z

Ability: Overgrown or Long Reach

Moves:

Swords Dance

Spirit Shackle

Leaf Blade

Sucker Punch

Roserade

Item: Focus Sash

Ability: Natural Cure

Moves:

Sludge Bomb

Energy Ball

Nature Power

Sleep Powder

( Roserade is here bc of the hc that Florinia gave him it as a budew when he was younger :) )

Virizion

Item: Coba Berry

Ability: Justified

Moves:

Sacred Sword

Leaf Blade

Megahorn

Reflect

( might change this moveset later )

Skeledirge

Item: Magical Seeds

Ability: Unaware

Moves:

Substitute

Will-O-Wisp

Hex

Torch Song

( arguably my favorite set for Fern )

Mimikyu

Item: Life Orb

Ability: Disguise

Moves:

Hone Claws

Play Rough

Drain Punch

Shadow Claw

( alternative option is flutter mane. Honestly probably a better option for the field but was worried it might be....too over powered. Also how the would be get the thing. Maybe just mismagius? Shrugs)

Mega Sceptile

Item: Mega Stone ( duh )

Ability: Lightning Rod

Moves:

Dragon Pulse

Giga Drain

Nature Power

Brick Break

( the other option would have been mega venasuar but 1) Roserade and 2) Fern would love to shit on Flora if he knew, but he doesn't and I just think sceptile fits him more)

Overall, I like this team. I do wish there was ways to utilize the dark type boosts more, but I think overall this works. I love the idea of Witch Fern lol. I know that's not exactly his aesthetic in canon, but it's very fun to imagine. He would not wear a witch hat, he refuse.

Saphira: Dragon/Steel, Fairytale Field

Dialga

Item: Scope lens

Ability: Pressure or Telepathy ( depending if singles or doubles)

Moves:

Stealth Rock

Draco Meteor

Thunder

Blizzard

Dragonite

Item: Lapapa Berry

Ability: Multiscale

Moves:

Extreme Speed

Dragon Dance

Dragon Claw

Earthquake

Dragapult

Item: Life Orb (?)

Ability: Infiltrator

Moves:

Flamethrower

Draco Meteor

Shadow Ball

U-turn

Kingambit

Item: Chople Berry

Ability: Supreme Overlord

Moves:

Kowtow Cleave

Psycho Cut

Iron Head

Swords Dance

Steelix

Item: Magical Seed

Ability: Sturdy

Moves:

Gyro Ball

Earthquake

Dragon Tail

Dragon Dance

Yes this is a nod to Saphira's most iconic scene lol.

Mega Latios

Item: Mega Stone ( duh )

Ability: Levitate

Moves:

Calm mind

Draining Kiss

Dragon Pulse

Mist Ball

I think the reason I went with latias instead of Latios was bc 1) it was most used by Saph I think and 2) I think it's the one that can actually use a fairy move lol.

Not much to say with Saphira's team, really. I simply choose pokemon that I thought would fit her. If the normal/fairy option on the poll won, I would have made her typing Dragon/Fire, but ah well. I think Dragon/Steel fits just as well. Maybe Titania gave her pointers. Speaking of which, fun fact! When choosing for Leo's E4, it was between her and Titania got the spot. I obviously ended up choosing Saph, but trust me it was hard. The biggest reason was bc I wanted to stay a bit away from the Another Time E4. Just a bit. That being said, and this is the fun fact, Titania eventually gets that role when Shelly becomes champion! Yes, Shelly becomes champion after Leo. It's a back and forth for a while ( and for the Adrienn's sake, Titania and Saphira don't switch each time Leo or Shelly becomes champion again), but inevitably, Shelly becomes the permanent Champion of Reborn, and thus, Titania becomes one of her E4. I like to think Shelly made Titania swear she's for keeps lol.

If there's one thing I will say about this team is that it's pretty slow. While I love Steelix, maybe I should replace it with something that can provide tailwind support?

And finally, the elite 4 I did a whole poll for:

Taka: Normal/Fairy, Rainbow Field

Chatot

Item: Silk Scarf

Ability: Big Pecks

Moves:

Boomburst/Hyper Voice

Heat wave

Defog

Nasty Plot

Of course I had to add Chatot lol. There's probably a better movest here, buuuut yeah!

Ho-Oh

Item: Heavy Duty Boots

Ability: Regenerator

Moves:

Sacred Fire

Hidden Power

Substitute

Roost

H. Zoroark

Item: Magical Seed

Ability: Illusion

Moves:

Hyper Voice

Sludge Bomb

Flamethrower

Hidden Power ( Rock or Water?)

Why does Taka have a H.Zoroark? Bc I felt it fitted his motivations by the end of the Reshiram route! I think giving him a hisuian mon fits really well, and of all of them I think H. Zoroark fits best.

Infernape

Item: Life Orb

Ability: Iron Fist

Moves:

Close Combat

Zen Headbutt

Blaze Kick

Mach Punch

Mega Charizard Y

Item: Charizardite Y

Ability: Drought

Moves:

Solar Beam

Fire Pledge/ Heat Wave

Roost

Rock Slide

I'm bad at calculating damage, but if I did the math right overall Fire Pledge and Heat Wave does the same damage overall ( fire Pledge gets booster by the field and sun, heat wave just gets boosted by the sun), and is a spread move. Maybe Fire Pledge for The Culture + when/if sunlight fades, it's still going 120 damage with better accuracy. So.

Aegislash ( Steel/Fairy)

Item: Leftovers

Ability: Stance Change

Moves:

King's Shield

Sunsteel Strike

Dazzling Gleam

Sacred Sword

Arguably the one that best utilizes this field lmao. " But R this is a normal/fire team, why is Aegislash-" 1) it's too iconic not to get man and 2) there's plenty of elite 4 members that are said to master a single type but have pokemon in their teams that aren't that type. If anything, Taka here is the least offensive bc he only really has one, where the others had multiple. I just think Taka should use his cool sword more.

The biggest thing with this team is that I want it to be a doubles team, bc Taka generally battles in doubles in the post game, but this team. Is so rock slide weak man. And ngl I feel like I could have added more normal types outside of the two.

AND THAT'S EVERYTHING YIPPEE!!!!!! I love team building but am I the best at it? Nah. So if anyone has any suggestions on what I should change, feel free to send an ask!

Overall this elite 4 has this cute fantasy theme to it. Heather- the flying maiden, Fern - the witch in the woods, Saphira - the mighty dragon and Taka - the knight that protects his king ( Leo ). It was honestly accidental but I love it.

[vanillaxoshi]

Hi ! Xoshi .

I know I have written some au's Solfang scenarios but I don't have any idea about Royalty au .

Because I don't really know how Royal au Cahaya characteristics so I never have imagined it.

I only know you mentioned Fang meet Cahaya in the light section because that's the section that Cahaya is in charge .

Can you fill me in what kind characteristics that Royal au Cahaya have?

right you sent me one ask asking bout this😅

well i didnt really answer it at first cuz i didnt know what to put in since i was planning on diving into that once i get into revealing/showing more info of the royalty au ver of the septuplets

but you could say hes stressed a bunch and he doesnt really like interacting with his people much because his own people dont really trust him. So yeah, he doesnt go out much to his section. (he mostly goes to the other sections mostly to be with his brothers but yeah he doesnt really like his section bc of the people)

he tries his hardest to make them want to trust them but it could get tiring somtimes especially if there are people who overthink/overanalyze and twist his words

im thinking how fang and cahaya met is Fang fully trying out his work by making a different shadow creature this time(the dragon) which kinda got him blast off the techno section and washed up in the light section, it just so happens Cahaya was there reminiscing, saw i guy unconscious on the shore and well he's still nice. hes gonna be worried duh. Revived the dude, Fang just passed out again and Cahaya had no choice but bring him to his palace and yeah.

Crushes

Summary: Reader arrives with Charlie to stay at The Burrow for the Holidays. The family quickly catches onto the cute little crushes Ron and Reader have on each other.

TW/CW: Brief mention of a scar on face (from a dragon mishap) So, idk who she ended up with but let’s pretend Hermione and Ron didn’t end up together so I can write a Ron Weasley x Reader imagine yeah? Anyway, this takes place like a year after the trio graduates Hogwarts but it’s a No Return of Voldy AU bc screw him that’s why lol (so obvi peoples lived instead of not *cough*Freddie*cough*. Also, reader is only about two years older than Ron.

Requested?: No

Word Count: 1,210

A/N: I really wanted to write something for Ron so here it is lol. It’s a little odd maybe? But I like it, I hope you do too! Remember Requests are Open!

Your POV

     Charlie and I apparate outside the front gate of The Burrow. As I look up at the interesting building, my stomach ties itself into knots. Charlie insisted that I come spend the Christmas Holidays with him and his family after I let slip that I didn’t have any family left to spend the Holidays with. It’s not like I don’t know the Weasleys or they don’t know me. I was in the same year as Fred and George. When I said that I wanted to work with some sort of dangerous magical creatures as my career choice, the twins suggested Charlie and he was happy to take me on as an apprentice.  

    The problem lies with Charlie’s youngest brother, Ron. I know it probably sounds odd but I had a huge crush on him back in our school days. He was always so different from his brothers. Never stiff and serious like Percy. Always more on the daring side like the twins and the eldest two Weasley brothers. However, there was always something different about Ron. I could never put my finger on it but I could never ignore it either.

    Charlie pulls me from my thoughts as he nudges my arm, “Ready?” I nod and we step into the house. Within in seconds, Molly has us both wrapped in a hug. The rest of the family is gathering around, along with Hermione and Harry who are visiting for the Holidays as well. Hellos and welcoming hugs are exchanged all around.

    By the time the excitement dies down, Molly is pulling a roast out of the oven, “Ginny dear, could you set the table really quick?” As Ginny sets off to do as asked, everyone else gathers in the dining room, which I notice is considerably larger since the last time I was here. Charlie offers to carry our bags upstairs which leaves me still standing in the entryway, honestly trying to catch my breath and calm my nerves.

    That being said, I’m not alone as I notice Ron smirking at me from his position leaning against the kitchen counter but he quickly turns his attention back to the dining room as Molly yells for us to come on and eat.

    Throughout dinner, I find it hard to focus on all the stories everyone is telling to catch Charlie and I up. Instead, I keep battling to keep my attention off of Ron. He’s gotten a lot taller since I saw him last and he’s sporting a rather attractive five o’clock shadow. He looks a lot more worn and wearier as compared how I remember him from a few years ago but I suppose working as an Auror will do that to you. Hell, I probably even look a little more ragged now with my scarred face, blasted dragons pitching their temper tantrums. I’m pulled from my thoughts once more as Molly brings out the desserts.

    Once dinner is finished and the dishes have been cleared away, everyone disperses but Ginny and Hermione make their way to me and drag me upstairs to Ginny’s room. As Ginny shuts the door behind us, Hermione throws a silencing charm up and then turns to me, “Okay, squeal.” Dumbfounded, I give her a confused look.

    Ginny lets out an exaggerated gasp, “You and Ron, duh.”

    “What about me and Ron?” I ask, still confused. Was I that obvious? I didn’t think I was staring that much.

    “You two have been doing that thing that people do when they obviously have feelings for each other but don’t know how to approach. You would stare at him and as soon as he looked your way, you’d look away so he’d stare at you and then if you happened to look in his direction he’d look away. I’m honestly glad for it though because he had the biggest, most hopeless crush on you back in school,” Ginny explained.

    “It was so painfully obvious, I’ll be surprised if Fred and George haven’t been taking bets on it already,” Hermione says, exasperated.

    Feeling cornered, I sigh, “Okay, you caught me, I have a crush on Ron. Is that what you wanted to hear?”

    Grinning triumphantly, Ginny and Hermione, excitedly in unison, say, “Yes!”  

    I chuckle as I shake my head at their excitement and run my fingers through my hair, “Can I go back downstairs now?”

    “Why so you can drool over Ron some more?” Ginny jokes as I shoot her a glare and we head back downstairs.

    We find everyone gathered around the Christmas tree as Charlie tells a story about one of the dragons we dealt with. As I go to take a seat off by myself, Ginny and Hermione have other plans and subtly redirect me to sit beside Ron on the floor. He had laid down on the floor and propped his legs up against the banister of the stairs. I take a seat beside him and do the same and try to ignore the grins on several of the faces around the room. He looks over at me and grins so I grin back before returning my gaze to the ceiling above us.

    Within a short while, Charlie finishes his story and the twins are chiming in, “You know what I could go for?” inquires George.

    “If you’re thinking what I’m thinking it’s a bonfire,” Fred states.

    “I’m always thinking what you’re thinking, Fred,” he laughs and gets up to head outside, picking me and Ron on their way and dragging us with them. We make it outside and Ron and I stop to watch the twins bicker over a spot to put the fire. Once they’ve finally decided on a spot, and just as Ron and I were about to give up and go in, they direct Ron and I to gather smaller twigs and sticks for kindling while they grab logs from the shed.  

    Ron and I make our way through the grass and towards the edge of the woods and begin gathering materials. He is the first to speak up, “You know they did this on purpose right? We got caught staring at each other so they decided if we weren’t going to do something about this ourselves then they will.” Maybe that’s the thing that I could never put my finger on, everyone always thinks he’s completely oblivious when in reality he picks up on a lot of things no one else does. He’s very observant.

    “Well, I supposed we should thank them then?” I say thoughtfully.

    “That would depend on your answer to what I’m about to ask you,” he says looking at me.

    “Oh? What’s that?” I ask making eye contact with him.

    “Would you like to go out on a date with me sometime?” he stutters nervously. There’s the cute nervous Ron.

    “I would love to, Ron,” I grin as we both turn to head back to the house with plenty of sticks in hand. As we do, we can see the fire already roaring high. I laugh, “I was wondering why on Earth they wanted kindling when they have wands.” He laughs heartily as I offer my hand out to him. He takes mine in his and we continue our walk back to the house.

Masterlist

[airris-fr]

oH lore qns incoming!! Is there any form of law enforcement in the Dreampeak? What about forbidden practises? Libraries or temples or arenas? Any deity in particular that they worship? What is your clan known for/what do they specialise in? :D and for dragons: I'm curious about Tyr and Artim ;)) feel free to answer whichever you like (it's a lot of qn.s oops)ahHHh! -poop ;)

I’M GONNA ANSWER ALL THE THINGS

“Airris, that meme is too old, you can’t use tha–”

Is there any form of law enforcement in the Dreampeak?

Yes!! And no. There are official guards but they almost solely focus on the empire and Empress Marzanna! She’s unaware of the fact they aren’t serving the people as they should be because they are commanded by her mother’s adviser. He just wants to keep her safe, surely. Probably. It’s best not to worry about it. The regular layperson has to rely on the mercenary guild for protection, which has definitely helped the guild grow strong roots in the community; you wouldn’t hear it more than a whisper, but there’s a lot of people who would side with them over the empire should it come to it.

What about forbidden practises?

Officially, all the regular taboos are off-limits. No necromancy, no murder, no stealing, no fun. Buuuuuut it’s not very strictly enforced, mainly due to the reasons above. As long as it’s kept on the down low in the city, you can get away with a lot. (The Underside is an entirely other story; they are blatantly open about their disregard for the empire’s laws)

The main thing that keeps necromancy from being a problem is actually Esric. He makes The Dreampeak is a strictly BYOB (bring your own body) party; you aren’t getting one from his graveyard without suffering some severe losses yourself. And frankly, it’s a lot of effort to get a dead body into a floating city when you could just mess with it somewhere else in Sornieth, so who’s gonna bother?

Libraries or temples or arenas?

Libraries, yes!! There is a rather large archive run by Albain, it’s full of history and interesting texts. Then there is Libellum’s private library but you’re risking life or limb to access that collection.

Temples, no! Surprisingly, there are no actual temples on The Dreampeak, at least available to the general public. Instead, there are shrines in most shops, taverns, and homes dedicated to their patron deity where offerings can be made. The only true, proper temple is inside the palace, dedicated to the Plaguebringer.

Arenas, kind of? Underground fighting rings are more common than out-in-the-open gladiator arenas. Every so often a traveling show might appear in the market and hold something similar but it’s almost always just for visitors to ooh and ahh at, entirely staged and none too lethal.

Any deity in particular that they worship?

The Tidelord, The Wingsinger, the Plaguebringer, and the Arcanist are all respected on The Dreampeak and are the most commonly worshipped.

What is your clan known for/what do they specialise in?

Trading! But also mercenaries. It’s a good place to end up if you want to get into either.

Tyr

I am so glad you asked about this boy bc I totally forgot to message you and tell you!!!!! I HAVE THE LORES!!! His muse showed up right away, full of personality and charm, the second I started dressing him.

Tyr has been a troublemaker from the egg, as you know, so it wasn’t much of a surprise for him when he ended up as a prisoner of the gaolers after trying to steal from the Icewarden. Well, actually, the gaolers were a little surprising, he’ll admit, he wasn’t expecting them; a guard or two blessed by the Eleven, sure, but not… not whatever those things were supposed to be. They ignored him for the most part, in fact he barely ever saw them, but it was hard not to feel constantly hunted in the bleak, snowy ruins they kept him confined to. Worse, he felt bored. Who knew how long his sentence would be for a crime against the frozen deity?

He found himself seeking his captors, hunting instead of being hunted. They seemed to dance around him like the snowflakes that blurred his vision; they were avoiding him. He turned it into a game, constantly pursuing them, pushing them where he wanted, and a plan started to form. He was getting out of this place.

It was night when he decided to enact his plan, with the comfort of the shadows pushing him forward. It was a delicate dance but slowly, so slowly, he found himself at the edge of the ruins. The land before him was shielded by blizzards, swirling and howling without mercy. An exit, however brutal, had appeared.

It was all going to plan.

Or at least, until he locked eyes with it.

(…I think I accidentally turned this into a story halfway through oops)

Artim

(quick warning for abuse [and rape-y vibes further down, there will be a second warning], please take care and feel free to skip Artim’s lore if you need to!)

…this thing is already really, really long so I’m gonna be as brief as I can. BASICALLY, oh gosh, this is gonna take forever, uhm, basically, he started out life in a military clan, leading attacks, torturing, killing, etc. and was a favorite of the higher ranked officers but when he got injured in battle, he lost his status and rank, turning into nothing more than a glorified punching bag for trainees. He let it happen because, well, where else would he go? The clan was all he ever knew and who would take him in after the horrible things he’d done?

One day, he’d had enough. His leg ached. It hurt too much. He lashed out.

He didn’t mean to kill them.

dun dun dun duh dun stuff happens here that I haven’t figured out

TW: rape-y vibes from here forth due to an antagonist in his past

queue nightmare sequence

He would make it. He had to make it. A force slammed into his side and he heard bones snap as he fell to the ground—though he couldn’t tell if they were his own or his attacker's—, quickly followed by a kick to his side.

“I see what he meant now, you’re definitely something to look at,” The words echoed through his head but they made no sense, what did that mean? Where was Be—another kick to the side interrupted his thoughts and he groaned, pain spreading throughout his abdomen; the broken bones had been his, it seemed, “Pay attention, love, I’m still talking.”

Pressure squeezed at his broken ribs, driving them harshly into his organs as the wildclaw straddled his waist. If he noticed, he didn’t seem to care, smiling wickedly down at him, “He says you’re an awfully good lay, should we test it out?”

“Get the fuck away from me,” Artim spat before slamming his head into the man’s nose, throwing him off and stumbling to his feet. What was happening? Where was Beh—

“Now, now, Artim, there’s no need for such violence.“ 

Behellagh? 

See… he’d eventually found a place, after all, as the guard to a prince. But the prince was power hungry and it didn’t take long for someone to take advantage of that; a wildclaw, named Vhen. By the time Artim found out about Behellagh and Vhen making plans to overthrow the throne, it was too late; the attack had already begun.

Artim is nothing if not loyal. He sticks with those he loves. And god, did he love that stupid prince; was even foolish enough to think that the prince loved him back. So when they fled the castle, he followed.

Behellagh could see Vhen’s interest in his guard and more importantly he could see Artim’s loyalty to him, and so he manipulated it cruelly to further gain the wildclaw’s favor. If Behellagh told Artim to follow Vhen’s orders, who was he to argue? He was all he had.

It didn’t take long for Artim to become just a broken husk of himself.
