Oooh boy, I’ve never done those before, but I’m gonna go for it this year! I think I would like a card for Orre lore/worldbuilding or Hurt/comfort/whump. Or a combination of those things, idk how it works haha. Thanks! :quag:

Chapter 17: Dust and Shadow Trudly. Folly. Cail and his companion, then one other lurking behind them. Dust and shadows, broken vending machines and old shipping crates scattered across the room, and…only one exit, on the opposite wall and behind the five trainers. Wes took all of it in as...

Tossing in a rec for White Swan, Black Swan by @Sinderella ! There are so many delightful things about this fic. To name a few: • Wonderfully expressive and colorful characters, each with distinct personalities • Some of the best Pokémon puns for irl equivalents you will ever find • Absolute...

Hey hi remember that time we did a review exchange a WHOLE YEAR AGO? And how it took me until now to finally do the dang exchange? Better late than never, right? 😂 Aight, I’m kind of experimenting with my review style here, so bear with me if it’s a little wonky. I’m gonna react to some...

Here we go!! I blazed through the final six chapters, and WOW I have so much to say. For starters, these chapters are extremely battle-heavy—for obvious reasons! Steven faces Wallace, then gets the Rain Badge, then battles through the Elite Four and the Champion. Tons of significant battles...

This week’s fic rec goes to @Dragonfree ’s one-shot, Go. A super charming story that will hit you right in the feels. I especially love the way Pokémon training in general is depicted here, and reading this is like getting a glimpse into a childhood dream come true. The optimistic take on the...

Back for the finale! So far, we are 3/3 on how many times I’ve read this chapter versus how many times it manages to make me cry. There are some gorgeous and wrenching lines in here. 🥲 Gosh I love this fic so much. I know we both like to meme on it being your Ultimate Angst fic, and it...

Hello hello! Yellow17 I’d been meaning to hit up this one-shot last week but irl got in the way and I got a super late start in blitz. I’ve been hearing lovely things about this one-shot, so I’m very happy to be here reviewing it now! This was an absolute treat to read, and I’m glad I...

Back for more, as promised! A couple of the most gut-wrenching lines within the entire fic are in these chapters. 😭 I just want to echo everything I’ve said before about how excellent this all is. In particular, since these chapters are the most action-heavy, you do a great job with writing...

So…I can’t believe I’ve never reviewed this?? I think I had it in my head that I had at one point because we chatted about it or something? Regardless, I am here to RIGHT THIS WRONG, this is an absolutely stellar fic and it deserves all the love in the world. I’m genuinely so excited to rant...

Back for another review! I’m in the process of tweaking my review style just a little bit for blitz so that I don’t burn out, so bear with me if this review is formatted a little differently from my previous one today! First, I picked out a few line quotes to focus on: Wow this chapter gave...

HOWDY HEY Man, it’s been such a long time since I’ve revisited ES. Way too long, I’m so sorry! 😭 I was immediately excited to hop back in, especially once I realized I’d left off RIGHT BEFORE THE SLEEPOVER CHAPTER AAAAAH Anyway, let’s dive in! So much happens in these chapters! What a...

Okay so, while this one-shot is on the shorter side, there is. SO MUCH. To talk about. I always find that I have so much to gush over when it comes to your writing, because you pack so much into every sentence. This is no exception! Guarding against sympathy, yusss. I love me an antagonist that...

Yes hello it is me, I can’t believe I actually haven’t formally reviewed this yet? How?? I’ll have you know that this wrecked me when I read it the first time and rereading it made me emotional AGAIN. So thanks for wrecking my feels repeatedly, you’re the worst. :mewlulz: (Joking, obviously. I...

Hello! Listen. Every single one of you needs to drop what you’re doing immediately and go read Pizza With a Slice of Pain by @zion of arcadia . Why? Let me tell you why. I read this fic while judging 2021’s one-shot contest and absolutely adored it—and, reading it again a year and a half...

Hello hello! I know I have reviewed this one-shot as a judge two-ish years ago, but I’m absolutely thrilled to come back and review it as a regular reader this time! Plus, it looks like you’ve made some tweaks here and there! Admittedly, I might not catch every change you made since it’s been...

Howdy hey! I am LONG overdue to review this fic to begin with, and it certainly was a treat! First of all, I love the title—it gives a very accurate depiction of what kind of story this is. And second, this was a really really lovely little bit of xenofiction! From my own writing experience...

As soon as Steven spoke, Wes glanced around and felt his stomach drop. It seemed nothing had changed at all—Sigmin and Nox were still suspended, motionless, as were all the other victims. Wes let out a quiet groan and rubbed his forehead. What the hell had that dream been for, then? Not a damn...
