And in YET ANOTHER collab it looks like Rin is gazing longingly at Hiori. Bonus point, Hiori’s card has the Eiffel Tower in the background. Is he going to Paris to visit his boyfriend Rin in PXG? 👀🩵

i NEED the Padres to win tonight so i can stop stressing over the possibility of the single least compelling WS - Yankees/Dodgers

[flowersandbirdsflyingfree]

Hey, I’m proposing something very different this time around! I’m calling these Pep-Talk Matchups!

What’s a pep-talk match up? Well, you give me a fictional character you love and I help reassure why they would be a perfect match for you! Sometimes life is tough and we need that extra reassurance even in the little things

My expertise is in the following fandoms:

-TF2

-Call of Duty Zombies

-Boomer Shooters (Doom, Half-Life, etc.)

If you are not in these fandoms, I’m still willing to give it a try! Entries are open from 50/30-6/3

Basically treat this as a regular matchup (interests, personality, etc.) and add some worries for me to extinguish

This is a very experimental kind of matchup so I’ll leave this open for a few days. I await your requests!

Hello I'm so excited to do this with you @sugutoad honestly this person was the first one to come to my mind a I just had to do it.

your match is with Aemond Targaryen!

RUNNER UPS : Aegon Targaryen and Criston cole

Your from house Targaryen, second daughter of Alicent and Viserys

You are the twin of Helaena Targaryen, ever since you were young people could see you and your twin were…different from each other. You the one the people look to and her the one people ignore. Ever since you were good with children, your mother noticed and let you take care of them. In her mind she was letting you learn how to be a mother young, something she wishes she could have had before she was wed. your siblings gravitated to you for guidance, even Aegon seemed to listen to you better than he did your own mother. But none of your siblings followed you more than Aemond, always trying to impress you. You like to spend your days sitting on your balcony as you watch your brothers train. Also even though you despise him you are still the main caregiver of your father besides the Maesters or your Mother.

: You and Aemond don’t need to speak to each other as you both despise small talk of any sort finding it meaningless, you like to sit and read together, you with your feet in his lap and him caressing your calves. And if you do talk, it is most definitely more of a debate than a conversation, Aemond would also let you win these “debates” when he sees he’s backed you int a corner as he knows how you hate being wrong. 

: You and Aemond love to fly together on your dragons, racing through the sky. But there is nothing Aemond loves more than when you finally agree to fly Vhagar with him. Now you may think he would be gentle with you riding with him, but in reality he pulls out all of Vhagars tricks, from rolling through the air, to diving towards the ground only straightening once the threat of death comes along. He does all of this just so you’d hold him tighter, and he must fight his laughter when you scold him for being so reckless when flying as you smack his chest and arms.

: when you two have an argument, which if we're honest only happens once in a blue moon. You often stay in your room knowing if you did leave and saw him you’d forgive him without a second thought. That is why 70% of the time Aemond is the one to apologize, searching for you through the keep, after the second day he will knock on your door and apologize. Though when you are truly aggrieved you go to your fathers chambers taking over as his caretaker, and when you see him enter you know he is truly desperate for your forgiveness to enter your fathers chambers, the man he hates with every breath he takes. He will beg for your forgiveness as if he is begging the mother to forgive him for his sins, and after that display who would you be if you did not bestow it upon him? 

Ship tropes: Hurt them and you die (Aemond) x I can take care of myself (you) Idiot always getting hurt (Aemond)  x personal nurse who always fixes them up (you) Cold to most people (Aemond) x Their one soft spot (you)

Ship song: Good Graces by Sabrina Carpenter

Dragon: Your dragon is Sliverwing, she matches your kindness and gentle touch but if anyone crosses you, you both are ready to let the world see that sometimes the most gentle creatures have the most wrath.

other relationships 1: you and Aegon are the best of friends, truly no one thought you would be but you are. You get drunk every friday together and just vent to the only other person that understands the pressure of your mothers expectations. For you it was taking care of your siblings for him the weight of the crown he never wanted

2: you and Alicent are as close as a mother and daughter can be. For she clings to you because she could never do so to Helaena, ever since you were young you were her little shadow with your own little shadows. She cared for the younger two, but they seemed to like you best and in her mind letting them cling to you will teach you how to be a mother young. Something she wishes she knew how to do before she wed Viserys.

3: Jace and you had always butted heads, never was there a time you were alone together that either of you left the room without some sort of bruise. Rhaenyra made it out to be you attacking her son, but when Jace outgrew you when he was 10 and you were 12 she no longer could say that as it was obvious he had the advantage.

4: Ser Criston had always been fond of you but the day you stole his heart was when you were only 5 years old. He had gotten a little scratch on his arm training, but you rushed over saying “I got a potion that will fix it!” and he couldn’t help but obliged you. This potion consisted of grass, dandelions, olive oil you stole from the kitchen, a scrap of fabric you had from your embroidery lessons, and a kiss above the bandage. When he asked why you kissed it you said with your hands on your hips. “It’s part of the spell, trust me it will work.” when he saw you crying as your mother bent down to kiss your scraped knee, he knew what you believed to be the magic of that potion.

5: Daeron and you have sent letter once a week since he was sent to old town, it is more out his want than yours but by now you can’t imagine your thursday mornings not starting with him informing you of all the gossip of Oldtown, the boy has always been a gossip.

I hope, I did this right! this is my first as you know so I hope you liked it!

SV Timeskip - Zero Gang + their main teams!

Zero Gang without their Pokemon here!!

explanations under the cut!

Florian's team was built using Red logic of Gift + story-relevant Pokemon:

Skeledirge simply because I picked Fuecoco in Scarlet (it meant Nemona got Meowscarada and I really like Meow for her + Quaquaval for Clavell)

Perrserker's the G-Meowth from Salvatore

Great Tusk is the former Titan (catchable after the Academy Ace Tournament)

H-Arcanine is the H-Growlithe from Perrin after helping her find Blood Moon Ursaluna

Empoleon is hatched from the egg Jacq gives the player in Kitakami

Ogerpon's... well, Ogerpon's Ogerpon lmao

Arven's team is the same as in the base game + DLC, with one change - Mabosstiff is totally okay and healthy, to be clear!! He's just much older now and can't battle as much as he used to, so Arven subs in Snorlax, which evolved from the Munchlax Florian got from Ogre Oustin' in Kitakami. Thought that was fun since it still fits in with Arven's food-themed team and is a small nod to her friendship with Florian.

Nemona's team combines her Academy Ace team with her Special Coach team (mostly just replaces Milotic with Goodra) and adds a shiny Flutter Mane. I chose Flutter Mane specifically because it's the Paradox with the highest usage rate in Competitive Pokemon and I thought it'd be cute since shiny Flutter matches well with timeskip Nemona's color scheme. It also kinda parallels Florian's Great Tusk where both have unique traits (titan/shiny), a high attacking stat (atk/sp. atk) and a low defensive stat (sp. def/def). I just think that's a neat detail.

Penny has her same team as usual since it doesn't change between the main game, Academy Ace, Mochi Mayhem and being a Special Coach. I'm thinking about designing a special Stellar-type Eeveelution to give her, just for fun, but I'll need to brainstorm a bit more for that one. Regardless, I think she'd also have a baby Eevee, just for fun.

also since I couldn't fit him in the main image without it feeling cluttered, here's Florian with Koraidon as a bonus:

SEMI-FINALS: PART I

[nasuverse-most-breedable-tourney]

Emiya did NOT wear a DOG COLLAR in that ccc art for you all to act like he is not the world's most excellent service switch. Quetz is a goddess you think anyone's ever asked her to for head? Conversely Emiya consistently shows pure devotion and care to all his masters AND he remembers his past summonings so you KNOW he has experience. Vote Emiya for that gluck gluck mind twisting bad bitch pulling head TODAY.

[squidkidnerd]

my hot take: if splatfests are global, then you should be able to match with players of other regions. no more of this “least popular team but getting stuck in mirror matches” bullshit

Battle! (Trainer) plays when battling generic trainers in Black 2 and White 2.

Battle! (Colress) plays when battling Colress in Black 2 and White 2.

cup to canada campaign or kitties get revenge for last year. this is my ideal finals matchup i will not lie

[dandyshucks]

yall im honestly a little afraid of getting very far in this game bc i am notorious for never using TMs or HMs unless its necessary for like. getting around. like the rock break one for example. and also i never use X Defense or X Attacks, i just don't use items and I let my pkmn learn moves naturally so i'm scaredddd of like... the Z-move stuff,,, and any other boost elements of the game,,, it just feels overwhelming and its hard for me to choose what to use where bc im already flailing around as is - i'm just really Bad at strategizing 😭😭😭
