    Pokémon Storm in a Teacup

    Yeehaw, I'm here for the fastest review in the west, pardner. I really appreciated the review you left my fic a while back and am now realising I don't think I've read anything of yours, so the stars have aligned on this blessed day. Plus, my knowledge of Orre is also fuzzy so we are kindred...

    Pokémon Basic Mineral Components

    Accidently wrote my own xenofic so was recommended this by Negrek quite a while ago and figured this was the best time to pick it up and give it a read! And for an author I probably should have got to much sooner. I've seen your rattata trainerfic kicking around for a good while but never took...

    Threadmarks: Chapter Three: Future

    Chapter three future They slept on the trail. In the rocks and gray dust that did not make Capelin feel anything. Then waking up hurts. A blink, and the exhaustion washes over him. Muskellunge stands on the side of the path, looking past him and into the mountains. “I know how to leave,” she...

    Pokémon Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Mercenaries of Dawn

    I've seen your fics around, but never really got the chance to read them. And since my theme for this blitz seems to be hitting every PMD fic I can find, here we are. I also usually like to keep up with fics rather than binge these days so having something shorter to catch up on is nice...

    Pokémon Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Perceptual Cosmos

    Hello :) I needed something a little lighter because I'm a new years boy with new years plans, so here I am. Normally I'd structure my thoughts under nonsense categories, but this was fairly short so I'll just jot down some thoughts :) Review I've never related more to Sal just wanting to...

    Pokémon Once a Thief

    Figured I'd finish of this section of dungeon right quick while the previous chapters are still fresh on the mind. Here I go reviewing chappies eleven and twelve. Dungeon time reprise Irune seems to have some sense of the hole she's dug for herself here. As the argument (sorta) continues, she...

    Pokémon Once a Thief

    Get blitzed! I have returned just soon enough to somewhat remember things that have happened before now. And by 'now' I mean chapters nine and ten. Although I spent a good while swearing that I already reviewed chapter nine, I don't think I did so we start there. Action! Because nine in...

    Pokémon (PMD) Between the Mountains and the Sea
    Threadmarks: Chapter Ten: The Mountain

    Chapter Ten The Mountain Larcen had something to prove. He spent a couple days happening, as he did. Mostly he watched—Solder somewhere in his peripheral, sweltering beside a trail of Larcen’s own muddy pawprints. He focused on those. Something had to happen here. They had to stop thinking...

    Yes, I'll take one self-promotion, please. Trade offer: I receive unlimited review, you receive unlimited satisfaction (and points). What the Gods Gave Me A story where a raven becomes a god and a bunch of weirdos hang out. Everybody gets to rise above their station, but nobody gets to be...

    Threadmarks: Chapter Nine: Rainstorm

    Chapter Nine Rainstorm Routine was good in Larcen’s book. Kinda boring, but hey, not everything had to be a battle—though that would make life more exciting. The mornings where he could follow a script and not think about it at all were, unfortunately, the best ones. The ones he functioned...

    Pokémon Transversal headcanons and oneshots

    Read the first four parts. Unfortunately, I'm missing some context here given I've not read the fic these were based on, but I think a strength of the writing is that it didn't take me that long to get engrossed. As general criticism, there are definitely a number of typos here and there, but...

    Threadmarks: Chapter Two: Present

    Chapter two Present There’s a line against the horizon Capelin has never seen before. Capelin draws across it with his scalchop. Sits it on an image of the waves like a distant ship drawing up to shore. He wipes across his whiskers to get the salt out. There are no boats on this ocean...

    Threadmarks: Chapter Eight: A Cat

    Chapter eight A Cat “We’re going to the entrance plains.” It was the first thing Landy said as Team Weasels met him at the guild. It can’t have taken them more than a half hour, but he still scowled and shook his head as if they were late. Before either of them could respond, he sauntered off...

    Threadmarks: Chapter Eleven: Opposititis

    Chapter eleven Opposititis Undella beach should be empty. Early still in time and season. At least, the desolate square of gravel lined by stilted log benches said so. Well, not quite desolate. One dark car—a solid black from tires to windows—watched, lonely, across the sea and to the faint...

    Review Blitz 2023 Kick-Off Thread

    I should be able to provide some character art. I'll say two paintings w/ colour and simple background. Maybe more if it turns out I'm not busy but I doubt that I won't be.

    Threadmarks: Chapter Seven: Teams

    Chapter seven Teams Some days passed after Solder’s breakdown. Luckily, few cared. Or, if they did, didn’t think to mention it. He and Larcen hung around the guild, mostly. To recover and relax. Solder still struggled with his thoughts on Klefki, but in some sense they also released him. He...

    Blitz review prep 2023

    Man, I've gotta finish Once a Thief and Suicune's choice at least, but outside that I don't have much on my hitlist. Maybe now's the time to consider another longer fic to pick up. Or Salvage, actually. I've been very coy with Negrek about reading that lol. Probably wanna hit a bunch of the...

    Chapter ten The bus chapter The upright beams of Skyarrow bridge whipped by in a gray blur. The first signs of the city came through as colourful smudges of early-morning cyclists puffing their way alongside them. Atlas stirred beside her. Despite sulking in his chair, acting like a petty bitch...

    Pokémon World Myth Encyclopedia

    Hmmm, certainly a different tone to the pokedex entries. It’s like the history notes version of them. Definitely a sensible choice for some very spooky mythological figures. And the different sections are quite a bit different to match. Broadly, this is one of those instances where leading with...
