Another short one, wherein I get very melodramatic for some one-off POV shifts, Mark obtains his second Pokémon in a bit of a déjà vu, and I attempt to introduce some worldbuilding. Chapter 3: Vuiiii! When Mark was out of the library, Charmander was sitting on the stone steps, his head...

It's time! Are you ready to hear about all my eleven-year-old self's fake legendaries, in a chapter where Mark sits there reading about them in a book, yet somehow I manage to also stuff in a bunch of separate absolutely wild nonsense? Get hype. Chapter 2: The Book When Mark woke up, the...

Thank you, thank you Without further ado, the long-awaited (for the last three days) actual chapter one, wherein we actually meet our protagonist (and immediately bring the narrative to a halt while he inner monologues for like seven straight chunky paragraphs). Exciting! Chapter 1: The...

1. What are you impressions of the kids so far? Are there any you're particularly interested in following at this point? The characterization of the kids is really strong and coherent! It's one of the biggest strengths of the book to me. Tobias's horrible home life naturally causes his desire...

Well I will just have to keep awkwardly posting reviews for chapters 35 chapters ahead of where the thread is >:/

Welcome to The Quest for the Legends, an original trainer fanfic that I originally started in 2002 when I was twelve, started rewriting from scratch in 2004, and then completed in 2018, exactly sixteen years after it started. I have plans to do a proper rewrite of this story. This is not that...

1. Have you read Animorphs before? If so, when and how far did you get through the series? If not, do you know anything about the series? A couple of years ago, I read the first book, and just started the second - like, a few pages in. Then I got distracted by other things, though I've been...

Dropping a review on chapter 46 here! And hoping you actually catch this thread up sometime. :P

8. Who rules in your world? TQftL never brings up government, but each region has its own human government, generally just standard representative democracies similar to what we have in the modern world. Ouen has an elected parliament and president. It's a fairly utopian world with little...

4. What are some major events in the history of your world? The biggest non-canon historical events established in TQftL are the two times there was a portal between the Pokémon world and the animal world, i.e. ours. The ancestors of Pokémon world humans came there thousands of years ago...

1. Tell us about your world. The QftLverse is roughly an interpretation of the Pokémon anime universe, with a lot of bits of worldbuilding accumulated over sixteen years of writing my trainerfic The Quest for the Legends and its offshoots. The anime is broadly canon to it, except for any bits...

[[not Firefighter though]]

[[Yes]]

[[I am also a Reluctant Something which makes me believe Wes's claim; doesn't prove he's not mafia but that all checks out]]

[[Some other stuff that I was thinking on my reread: - I was thinking I might come away from it convinced Wes was town, but I was left at kiiiind of a null on him. Really determined to trust Chappie, which is worth a side-eye if Chappie flips mafia. - Vague suspicion of Kyros - Maybe mafia...

[[Chappie already claimed to have swapped Mewtwo with Namco last night, for what it's worth. This whole theory seems kind of overcomplicated to me - not sure what it explains that isn't explained by our current assumptions? I may need to reread this later.]]

[[The mafia doctor's role wouldn't be useless even if Wes couldn't be a doctor until D2, though! There is another doctor, just one that (the mafia presumably doesn't know) won't be able to act until D2; and also, the mafia doctor could protect other mafia members against vigilantes. It does...

[[Don't worry, we're not voting for you now, if we even tried the day would just be extended thanks to the rule preventing new trains emerging less than an hour before the deadline. Yeah, the idea with mafia!you assuming Wes doesn't know about overdosing would be that scum in general have more...

[[I was already feeling a good bit lot less trusting of Mewtwo before I got to that on my read, so maybe if I'm being way overconfident there, it's because I was already starting to side-eye them a bit. Main reasons I noted down: - Mewtwo's softclaim from D1 was something I'd been wanting to...

"Hold the fuck on," Dave snarled suddenly. "If you figured that as soon as you saw Wes's reaction, then why didn't you fucking say so?" "You're not just not saying it, you're saying someone somehow circumnavigated your protection. The fuck's that supposed to mean, if you actually knew it was...
