#im sobbing over alola's finale as always

[love-is-a-pearl]

Not related to his growth as a trainer but more like a person, but I love Alola's finale! Specially Ash's faces when Lillie talks about her journey and his realization that he has been kinda of doing that to friends for a long while now :')

And how Lillie thanks him specifically before she leaves on her own journey. And then. He thanks her back.

and then he thanks Kukui and Burnet

and then Alola itself

And it's another beautiful small but so important thing he learns from Alola that he takes with him in Journeys.

And repeats on his parting with Goh

and its beautiful honestly. He learned to appreciate and SHOW THAT APPRECIATION to his friends. Because of Alola!

And I love this about this mediocre anime QAQ That despite all, there are things Ash learns from one season to another and takes all the way to the end. And it may not be pokemon types or strategies, but rather something specialer.

random lillie x reader hc’s

anonymous asked: Maybe just some cute lillie x reader stuff? Up to you what it’s about!

a/n: oh yall said lillie x reader? yeah we makin this all about miku, SORRY LADIES. honestly the Deeper Stuff about lillie’s relationship with vocaloid reflects a lot of my own personal experience with vocaloid/miku. i dont mean to get all depressing, but vocaloid helped me through my depression in middle school – i’m pretty sure without miku, i wouldn’t be here typing this today. i owe a lot to crypton’s twintail idol lmao. signed, mod elesa.

lillie shows reader her fave songs

you cry because they’re… all vocaloid… but OK some of these SLAP? we all know matryoshka goes so fuckin hard…

lillie loves k.k. slider covers… her and her synthesized waifus and husbandos i don’t understand it HONESTLY

lillie’s super nervous to show you at first and honestly? understandable. bc you don’t enjoy sharing your music taste with… real people standing next to you either… makes you Nervous

but you realize her music taste? just like her! cute and bubbly and occasionally morbid just a great happy dandy time! you make sure to show her that you enjoy her music by bopping your head along to the lyrics you can barely parse to your un-vocaloided ears.

she is pleased … and she’s extremely thankful you’re not saying anything because she’s afraid that one comment from you will hurt her entire existence and she doesn’t want that

“i really like this one, lils!” you gesture to the title – ten faced – and smile brightly at her. suddenly she’s tearing up and managing a soft “thank you…” before bursting into tears at your acceptance of her interests.

lillie crying over how she didn’t get to go to miku expo in alola

“lillie, it’s… it’s fine, you know? miku performs in kanto all the time!” you try and reassure her, brows furrowed at the sobbing girl on your bed.

“but … i could’ve gone with gladion! i could’ve dragged him with me and we… [sniffles] we could’ve cosplayed and …” she sobs some more and you just pat her back, nodding in understanding.

at first, lillie’s obsession with miku seemed a bit… odd, to say the least, but you slowly came to realize that it’s not so much miku she’s in love with – she’s in love with the variety of forms miku comes in, how people still love miku regardless of what she sings about or what she looks like, and that makes lillie love her that much more.

her mother never gave her that freedom to be who she wanted, constantly dressing her like the pokemon she coveted and abusing both her and her brother if they ever stepped out of line. those memories haunt her, and now that she’s free of her hellish past, she wants nothing more than to break out of her shell.

vocaloid helps her explore concepts and ideas her past self wouldn’t even think of contemplating. you’ve seen how lillie has changed; she’s blossomed into this happy-go-lucky, blissful spirit who’s finally appreciating who she is. she’s finally becoming her own person, and not the image her mother crafted for her.

so as she sobs into your covers, you can’t help but thank whatever is out there for helping lillie blossom into such a gorgeous human being – even if that ‘whatever’ is a 16-year-old android with turquoise twintails.

you surprise her a few weeks later by purchasing tickets for miku’s next kanto concert as well as a plane ticket for gladion to come and join the two of you. she bursts into tears and hugs you so tightly you swear she broke your ribcage.

reader helping lillie make her cosplay since she picked up a sewing hobby

y’all really pullin’ up to the fabric store in the middle of the day, rushing past the old ladies to get the Good Patterns for lillie’s (and yours! ... and gladion’s) cosplay.

she managed to convince you and glads to join her in cosplaying the trio of miku, len and rin. although it would make logical sense for her to be rin (considering len is gladion and... they’re related), she... doesn’t care about that LOL

shopping with lillie is so??? wholesome and good?? she always makes sure to shop efficiently and buys things on sale to preserve her wallet

she will fight an old lady for the last spools of electric blue thread don’t come for her

if she has to make a big purchase, she often consults with you and gladion because she believes you two have wisdom for purchasing the “correct” fabric for this costume, apparently. you can’t even tie your shoelaces what is lillie thinking???

after you buy your materials (thanks joanne’s) lillie sits down and stares at the sewing machine for five minutes before announcing she doesn’t know how to sew

facepalm.jpg

the two of you spend a couple minutes looking up sewing machine tutorials because that’s what the cool kids do in 2019 and eventually lillie makes her first stitch... into yOUR FINGER

“LILLIE OH MY GOD TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE PEDAL hoLY FUCK WHY DID YOU DO THAT” “Y/N I’MN SO ROSRY I DIDnt EMANT TO TO DHAT IM SOHj SORRY ARE YOU okAY?!?!” “NO????”

your mom eventually comes in because the two of you are yelling and crying and she tends to your injured finger and lillie’s injured pride before helping the two of you get started on miku’s top

it comes out.... ok... and your mom comes in and openly grimaces before redoing the whole thing herself while you and lillie watch in awe

next time you’re never getting near a sewing machine with lillie there
