    Pokémon The Foolish Oddish

    Catnip time! Also ouch, it hurts. I'm surprised I haven't seen/read/experienced this earlier because it's certainly in line with what I like to read and write. A very bittersweet story. Tragic, but also kind of not? I think without the final paragraph tying your story to the in-universe story...

    Threadmarks: Chapter Three: Morning

    Chapter Three Morning By the time Solder and Larcen got back to the guild it was late, the dusky grey sky melting into a pure black. Larcen had shuffled back onto his couch. He’d conked out the second he sank into the cushions, kicking up a cloud of dust that Solder watched settle back onto the...

    Pokémon Once a Thief

    I return. First, two eensy-teensy replies. Review time. Chappies 6-8 now. Oh, war What stuck out to me most in terms of worldbuilding this time was a bunch of stuff surrounding the consequence of war. Yipee! Once again, great consideration of small details. The refugee camps and...

    Threadmarks: Chapter Four: A Great View

    Four: A Great View Up above, hundreds of metres in the sky, Hoenn shone. The waters, mostly, which flowed in the gaps between land, almost seeming to crawl up the beaches and through the rivers to mainland mountains and lakes. The blue felt so solid and still from this height, but Latios had...

    Threadmarks: Chapter Two: Our House

    Chapter Two Our House Solder didn’t know what to expect when he entered the innards of the guild; he could only imagine as he squinted through the transition from the darkness of the hallway into the brightly lit main room. Luckily, he didn’t have to imagine for very long. The room was large...

    Pokémon (PMD) Between the Mountains and the Sea
    Threadmarks: Intro/Part One, Chapter One: The Sea

    Between the Mountains and the Sea Seafolk’s guild was not spoken of alongside the greats—even its own members could attest to that. But between a town that hates them and the threat of larger guilds coming to subsume them, they'd better think of some way to pull themselves together or else be...

    Pokémon The Suicune's Choice

    Congratulations! First of all! finishing any fic is a big deal, especially around novel/novella length. And what a fic to finish, too. I enjoyed this to the point that I struggled to find much criticism and mostly ended up gushing. Up to chapter three, at least. Haru & friends Your characters...

    Threadmarks: Chapter Three: Leaning, Learning

    Three: Leaning, Learning They’re deciding what to do with you, Atlas said. It had been a couple days and, according to him, whatever it was Juniper and Hilda wanted had not shown. They wanted him to fly—and he could not. They spoke of psychic abilities, but he had no concept of those no matter...

    Threadmarks: Chapter Two: Welcome

    Two: Welcome Aeimlou was excited to discover how much he bored Juniper. That was the human’s name—something she (because she was a she) explained in great detail to him as he sat on a soft bed in her nest. Along with assorted other details, most of which he did not understand and promptly...

    Pokémon Once a Thief

    Back again, then I'll probably take a break until another update or whatever idk. Still messing around with format so hopefully this ends up readable. Chapters three through five. Outlaw Stuff Don't have much to say about prose and I'll point out fun worldbuilding stuff as it comes up, so I...

    Pokémon Once a Thief

    Yooooo why not kick of a first post by reacting to something I liked? I obsessed over this a little bit and my notes are shambles, but I've tried to structure it into something palatable. So here we go: some broad comments first and random, meandering thoughts after. Not sure if I missed...
