Hey Naff,,, so,,, I’ve been thinking a lot about SJ Pokémon Style recently, and about how having Pokémon would open up so many new avenues for Shenanigans, particularly for the Vigilante’s escapes. This lead to me thinking of a scene probably early on in the “game”, when the Detectives are still getting used to Vigilante’s team and shenanigans. They’ve managed to corner them on a rooftop or something, with nowhere else to run, the Vigilante’s hands up and unable to reach for any Pokéballs. The boys’ own Pokémon stand by ready to spring into action at a moment’s notice. Despite this, the Vigilante’s just as calm and collected as ever. Vigilante: Well, looks like you’ve got me cornered. Good job, detectives. Sun: Just come quietly and we’ll take you in. Vigilante, glancing at the ledge behind them and smirking: Hmm… You know what? I don’t think I will. Moon: There’s nowhere left to run. It’s over. Vigilante: ‘Over’? Why detectives, this is far from over~ The Vigilante hops up onto the ledge behind them, smiling sweetly as Sun nervously tells them to get back down. Then with a wink, they jump. The detectives and their Pokémon rush to the ledge in alarm, when suddenly- CRAAAAWW! The massive black form of Corvinight comes shooting up from below, the Vigilante perched confidently on its back. Vigilante: In fact, I think our little game’s only just getting started~! Just… the Potential for dramatic escapes (and entrances!) in this AU is immense. The mental image of the Vigilante standing (standing, not sitting like a normal person because they're Dramatic and Talented like that) on Corvinight or even Hydreigon, calling down to the detectives flirtatiously has been living in my mind rent free for days. (I can also imagine them making another comment about their reactions, something like “Don’t look so alarmed, boys. Why, if I didn’t know any better, I’d say you were worried about me just now~” meanwhile the boys are still recovering from minor heart attacks lol. The Vigilante pulls this stunt approximately 74639 more times. It still stresses them out.)

Ahhh, the shenanigans would be so fun in the Pokemon style of SJ! I also love how much more the Pokemon can express the vigilante's and the detectives' personalities and be wingmen in a sense.

I adore the thought of the vigilante standing on Hydreigon's back while leaning over the edge of a roof to chat (flirt) with Moon, completely at ease and stable, not a fear of falling. Hydreigon rolls its eyes before pushing the vigilante up a step higher into a kiss with the detective (a la Aladdin) to cut the chatter.

Sun catches sight of the raven wings of Corviknight before the vigilante drops into the middle of his investigation of a gang attack while it's raining, his Braviary watching the other bird-like Pokemon closely with his wing held above Sun from his perch to keep him dry. Likewise, Corviknight spreads a wing to shelter the vigilante while the two discuss the murders. The two Pokemon are ever patient and move a touch closer to each other, connecting the canopy of their feathers when the detective and vigilante press close as they continue to theorize.

During chases late into the night, the vigilante will smile when Greninja cuts off their escape route, the Pokemon standing silent and ready. Their Scolipede scowls but vigilante soothes their Pokemon by promising that Detective Moon is already here—if Greninja is any indication of that.

There's a time or two that Detective Sun will find the vigilante with the aid of his Espeon, tracking them down after a few days of radio silence only to find the vigilante hunkering down somewhere, nursing some wounds and watched over by Banette. The doll-like Pokemon gives the creeps to anyone who gazes upon it, defensive of its trainer, but Sun has Espeon convince the Pokemon to let him closer so he can reach the vigilante and start patching up their injuries.

Absol will often pop out of the vigilante's Pokeball unbidden but frantic with its desire to warn its trainer, and the vigilante knows to start running with Absol right beside them. It always seems to be too late for Eclipse's Talonflame to be upon them. A fight isn't quick enough to get out of this before the boss man is upon them, grinning, and holding his arm out for his Pokemon before he and the vigilante, Absol growing at the other trainer, have a little talk.

Hey, I heard you have a tsams related discord server? If so, could I ask about joining? I love these silly shows but the main TSBS discord intimidates me

Ye, of course! ^^ I don't mind if you wanna join. I can send you a dm with an invite link if you'd like, or you can dm me first, whatever works for you. The server I have is mostly Frank-centric, but people can talk about whatever they want, really :P

[ask-refugeeclipse]

Hey, Sunny- I'm not sure what you're experiencing right now, but I'm sure you're gonna be alright. I'm assuming by 'brothers' you mean Eclipse and Moon? They're both safe right now. In fact, Eclipse is working on fixing whatever's going on with you- you're gonna be okay, okay? Just hang in there

Oh, the boys are on a road trip? I gotta know, who's in charge of the music? Or are you avoiding that inevitable potential argument in music taste by listening to the radio instead?

(Thanks for the ask! ;))

Sun: We’ve come to an agreement that the driver gets to choose the music. Therefore I’m going to do the best in my power no make sure Eclipse never drives on our way.

Eclipse: Sun’s no fun.

Lunar: Hey! That rhymed!

Moon: Oh fuz! There’s road work ahead. I guess we have to take a detour.

Lunar: I have to go pee

Eclipse: No you don’t. You’re an animatronic.

Lunar: oh ya.

Lord Eclipse always did say he was too empathetic for his own good.

[kiruuuuu]

omg Kiru I had a dream about your Recruits. Shay got into trouble and pissed off some Eldritch Horror Sasquatches somehow and the others were all trying to protect him from them. Ivan killed one I think. I don't remember anything else but I just thought you should know.

@noivoom, I am always loath to answer your asks because that means they won't remain in my inbox and bring me joy forever, but this is too good not to share 😂

This sounds very much on brand for all of them, I can only imagine them all being very respectful and hoping not to upset any Elder Gods when Shay comes along and asks one (1) insensitive question, making all hell break loose. He deserves and needs to be protected at all costs. If this were Halloween season, I'd be tempted to write a horror spinoff with the recruits being ill-equipped ghost hunters or the likes and not realising what they're messing with. Amazing.

[r6shippingdelivery]

Hm. I've been having thoughts about Fuze and cats lately and came to this conclusion; if he had a cat, it would either be the sweetest, most adorable Little Guy in the world (which throws most people for a loop because this is Fuze) or the wildest, most Feral Thing anyone's ever seen. A long-haired, eternally pissed-off, hissing gremlin that attacks everyone on sight and are we sure that's even a cat? It's technically a stray he somehow befriended after it snuck into his place one day, and he just went "welp, guess I have a cat now." It doesn't attack him and he treats it like a perfectly regular, adorable kitten. "What is that?!" Kapkan shrieks yells after it tries to tear his leg to ribbons (Fuze forgot to warn the others about his new 'pet'). "It's my cat," Fuze says casually, having casually scooped up the spitting demon before it could do any harm and cradling it gently in his arms. (Have you seen that one picture of a firefighter saving a cat in Russia? Yeah, that.) Can't decide whether he'd name it something sweet, or something in Russian or Uzbek that only sounds sweet but actually means like, Bastard or Gremlin or something.

I have So Many Thoughts about this cat--

That's how I always picture Kapkan as a cat lmao

Now, on a less crack-y note, and going with the pet HCs I have with a friend:

Kapkan would be intrigued by the cat and would respect how much of an asshole he is, but like hell he's going to let that beast near his precious Marsha. She's scarred enough already and what if they had kittens? Hell no, he's on a mission to keep Fuze's hell cat from his sweet, scarred/blind little lady.

Tachanka's dog would try to be the friendly, hyperactive puppy he is, only to be terrorized by Fuze's bastard cat. Tachanka probably laughs and says they're playing and having fun... unless Fuze's cat manages to draw blood, then he'd not be happy at all and ask Fuze to get that beast under control.

Glaz just wants the pets out of where he paints, last time someone left a colorful tray of footprints on the floor and everyone blamed him instead of Fuze and his cat.

Aw, are the ducks okay? they sound tired. I think they deserve a nice relaxation in a little pond with some bread to monch on. Just keep the bread away from any teleporters ;)

Engineer: [laughing] I’m not surprised that that whole fiasco made it past Mann Co. walls. Miss Pauling tried t’keep it quiet, but not even a cloaking sheet could hide the smoke comin’ from the wreckage.

[Sparking of electricity]

Engineer: As for the ducks, they’d been gone for the past few days before they showed up here. I’m not real sure where they went, but from the scorch marks on their feathers, it’s no place I wanna be. Hopefully those pocket people can give ‘em a hand.

[Hum of machinery]

Naff help I can't stop thinking about Mafia Boss Eclipse and Bounty Hunter Eclipse having a Dramatic Confrontation/Fight. It would be super badass I think, with both of them shooting barbs and insults in an attempt to get under each other's metaphorical skin and piss the other off enough into slipping up so as to gain the advantage- but I think BH!Eclipse has a surefire way to get one up on MB!Eclipse >:) MB!Eclipse would be going on about how he holds the city in the palm of his hand, he doesn't have to hold back, he has the power to burn it all down and make everyone pay. MB!Eclipse: I have everything I could ever want! What do you have that I don't? BH!Eclipse: I can think of a couple things. Three, specifically- or should I say three people? MB!Eclipse:

Bounty Hunter Eclipse: No Y/N? No brothers?

[ask-refugeeclipse]

Hmm... Error code 7162020. That's ah... hm. Okay. That's one hell of a coincidence. Those numbers just so happen to line up with a certain Important Date for the Sun and Moon in this dimension. 7/16/2020. Don't know what that might mean especially given the fact that the Incident on said date shouldn't have happened in your dimension, but the coincidence sure is there!

I also don't know how I made that connection either, considering how whenever numbers get involved my brain typically starts shutting down (also because you Americans use the month/day/year format for dates. AKA the wrong format ;))

Eclipse stiffened. "July 16...? What happened on that day here?"

"Sun doesn't like to talk about it..."

"I guess I can't blame him. I don't like my July 16 either. Must be a commonality among dimensions." Eclipse read the code again, wondering how he could have missed the connection. "Oh, the American dating system. Yeah, we don't use that where I came from."

"Really? But wasn't your Pizzaplex also in Utah?"

"Yeah, but my Monty's the one in charge, and he's British. And I was cooped up inside for so long I just got used to his format."

Hey KC, don't you think maybe you should... wait to pass judgement on Sun until Harvest is awake? I mean, Harvest was the one who got hurt, it should be up to Harvest whether or not Sun deserves punishment. *looks at everything that just happened* When, uh... when ya'll find him, that is.

Hey Naff, just wanted to let you know that the quality of Sleuth Jesters is so top-tier that I sometimes think "man, I love SJ so much, I'm gonna go see what kind of fanfics there are for it" and then I remember. SJ is the fanfic. It feels so much like a professionally written book that I forget it isn't its own thing. This has happened TWICE now. Luminite's Palaces of Purgatory and Actor AU aren't helping (speaking of which, I gotta go throw some love at Lumi too). This fanfic is always gonna hold a special place in my heart, I just know it. If only I lived in the Actor AU, where SJ would have its own fandom... Curse you, Naff *clenches and shakes fist* curse you... (a curse of good luck on your future endeavors, whatever they may be <3)

Ahhh, that's so sweet! That means so much to me, and fr fr Lumi's writing is *chef's kiss*! Thank you!!! This makes my day ❤️

[naffeclipse]

NAAAAAFF :D HI!!! Recently I binge-read all of Sleuth Jesters and since then I’ve been rooting through your blog for any additional content like a raccoon through a dumpster <3 Legitimately better than some published books I’ve read. Thought it was worth mentioning that after Vigilante, Moon and Eclipse got shot I remember joking to myself “hey, now all that’s left is for Sun to get shot, then everyone will have had a turn! We’ll be four for four! C’mere, Sunny boy!” … needless to say, I began regretting that joke VERY QUICKLY. I felt like that “no no no WAIT WAIT WAIT” meme. Sun, my boy, I am so sorry :’) But seriously though, that moment?? Eclipse’s reaction?? Calling out to Sun in shock, then again in what almost looks like anger? Because no, that didn’t happen, I didn’t shoot you, I don’t make mistakes like this, so just get the hell up! Almost as if he’s angry at Sun, at the universe for allowing this to happen, because surely it can’t be his own fault, right? That’s impossible. Like he’s prepared to blame everyone and everything but himself for what HE just did, because despite everything, despite all his threats and bitterness and trying to convince himself otherwise, he still loves his little brothers. AND MOON, frozen there in horror, because this all just happened too fast and now it’s like the world’s been flipped on its head, because he also never truly believed Big Brother would or could follow through on those threats. Not like this. It’s such a short scene (there would’ve been what, ten seconds tops between Sun getting shot and the ceiling collapsing?) but it’s SO impactful, with very little going on but also everything is happening at the same time. It lives rent free in my brain, I am OBSESSED WITH IT. I’m DYING just like Sun and Eclipse haha  to know, what would have happened if the ceiling hadn’t collapsed on Eclipse, at least not at that moment? What would he have done?? What would MOON have done?! CURSE YOU, BUILDING, YOU HAVE TERRIBLE TIMING!! (God, these brothers have got me in a chokehold. Chewing on them, shaking them, gazing at them, rattling them around in my brain constantly. I LOVE THEM YOUR HONOUR.) Whoops this got longer than intended. Long story short, thank you for reminding me of how much I secretly love detective noir stuff, Naff <3 Your writing is beautiful and I am studying it and you to hopefully pick up on the thought and care you put into everything and utilise some of it myself <3

Hey, babe! Oh man, you're making me melt! Thank you so much!

PFFFT such a great joke at such a bad time LASJDFLASFD

You're so sweet, ahhh, thank you!!! I'm really happy you enjoyed Sleuth Jesters and that moment, ahhh! One of my favorite things I've ever written!

[ask-refugeeclipse]

Ah, already being a bit of a menace, I see, Lunar? How long do we think it's gonna take for your siblings to realise you're gone? Hopefully they think to ask the Computer BEFORE they start freaking out (and that the Computer actually tells them instead of getting up to mischief). Saying all this lightheartedly, of course :)

Welcome to the party Lunar, we got paper, a mouse, and... a demon box, apparently.

"I think Earth would realize first, since we run our show together," Lunar said. As if suddenly weighed down, his posture slumped and he stared straight ahead of him. "Riiiight around a few hours ago... which means she probably went to Sun and Moon by now. Maybe I shoulda told her first..."

"I'll give Moon a call so no one worries—or... we can wait for them to call you so you can bear all the scolding."

"Truly, you rank among the worst of the Eclipses," Lunar muttered, but audibly enough for Eclipse to hear. He read the rest of the note. "Thank you, by the way. Now the party can really start!"
