    Threadmarks: Part 3: Sam [Azurill]

    (I have an idea for a second part to this one in my head. Maybe another time?)

    Pokémon A Halfway Home For Dimensionally-Troubled Former Humans
    Threadmarks: Part 2: Amelia [Gengar]

    Individual content warnings for depression, suicidal thoughts, an accidental near-death experience, and self-loathing. The heaviest part of the bunch.

    Pokémon A Halfway Home For Dimensionally-Troubled Former Humans
    Threadmarks: Part 1: Isaac [Seviper] and Claude [Zangoose]

    An individual content warning for mild internalized queerphobia with Isaac.

    Pokémon A Halfway Home For Dimensionally-Troubled Former Humans
    Threadmarks: Introduction

    A Halfway Home For Dimensionally-Troubled Former Humans A PMD anthology originally written for the 2023 anni prompt bingo, though I would enjoy fleshing it out some more later! Common content warnings for body dysphoria, gender dysphoria, and this world having a human-negative society...

    Truth or Dare Crossroads

    Lillie made a sort of choking noise. "M-Me? But- I, uhh... I've really only been this for a few minutes, so... Don't expect much but if it's really important I guess I could try?" She didn't recognize who this woman's species was, but it was obviously a grass type. That should put them at even...

    Truth or Dare Crossroads

    Lillie scoffed. “I know! I’m not stupid. Is ‘that can’t happen’ how you answer every hypothetical question? I guess if I assume wanting to change the answers thing is what you’d want, then I guess you answered the question properly by accident, so… fine, I guess? It’s all the same to…” “Oh. Um...

    Truth or Dare Crossroads

    Lillie's voice stuck in her throat. What do you say to that? She... didn't want to offer empty condolences. Or, empty-sounding ones anyways. She just clammed up instead. She had no idea what the right thing to say in a situation like this, only a lot of wrong things. "I... uhh... It's g- I...

    Fourth Anniversary Speed Catnip

    Posting an excerpt from a mystery project. A PMD thing, somewhat related to my bingo prompts? I plan to have it up at the same time as them. It's formatted as a journal/diary entry. Thought it might not be clear given it doesn't have a header yet.

    Truth or Dare Crossroads

    She laughed. “That’s fair. I’m not sure I’d buy it either, though it’s hardly the strangest thing happening here. You’re talking, too, after all. The line between human and inhuman is blurred here wither way. But. Um. If I had a way to keep in touch I would have used it. I wasn’t even sure if-”...

    Truth or Dare Crossroads

    “Well, that’s the thing…” She gestured towards herself. “Clearly, I am. Which is strange given I was human last night.” She took a sip of the tea, then looked down at the ground. “I’m not sure I mind, though? Being human… wasn’t all that great.” She felt a mote of emotion, muted but subtly...

    Truth or Dare Crossroads

    The place Lillie found herself was odd. Dreamlike, yes, but at the same time it felt crisp, like the balcony late on a winter night. It didn't have the whimsy of her usual dreams, nor was she a lucid dreamer- being self-aware would just be a waste of a good dream, after all. And so, despite the...

    Fourth Anniversary Drabble Bingo

    I’ve had an idea pingponging in my head that I feel like this would be a good excuse to get out… and it calls for some unfortunate/inconvenient PMD species to end up as! Preferably not many “objectmons” since I want to have some fun with the physiology of it.

    Blitz 2022: Prize Claim Thread

    Level of Prize: Forum Companion (15 Points) Type of Prize: Misc. Method of contact: Discord, but really forums also works (It's gen 9, so sprite WIP)

    Pokémon tarnishing

    October 1996: Y'know, given I showed up because I heard word of a trans character it took me way too long to figure out what was going on here. It was interesting to read the opening twice, once mistakenly thinking "Gemma" was a normal OC and a second time knowing what was up. Amidst the...

    Blitz 2022: Hype & Fic Recs Thread

    My fic rec has to be for Crux of the Self by @Truebrush. It's not the first PMD fic here to have body dysphoria as an element, but none take it on quite like this. And it's gone really underappreciated on TR, I actually found it offsite, doing one of my Ao3 searches for specific combinations of...

    Pokémon PMD: Crux of the Self

    I've seen a lot of PMD fics take on body dysphoria as an element, but none that really take it on as centrally and satisfyingly as here. I think this hits the feeling (or, what I imagine the feeling to be) of being cut off from everything you know in a body that's alien and uncomfortable to...

    Pokémon Stable, Predictable, Safe [PMD Oneshot]

    My internal voice for Matthias shifted over the course of the fic, starting from Ninja Man and gradually turning up the amount of 20th Century British Colonial Radio Program. I don't know where to fit that into the review but the realization that I'd done it entertained me, so I'm opening with...

    Non-Pokémon What's a Name to a Science Experiment? [Oneshot]

    Hello! I saw the words "science experiment" and "genderfeels" in the same line of the blitz promo thread and am nothing if not entirely predictable. I only know Anti from Mafia, and Namco High from a Jaiden Animations video, but this cannot stop me. This does a great job of taking advantage of...

    Pokémon Home is Where the Hoenn is

    Chapter 1: The opening here is some nicely done organic exposition. Most of the first 8-10 paragraphs could all be considered exposition, but don't feel the part because they're filtered well enough through the lens of things Hana could reasonably be thinking about. Though I did find myself...

    Pokémon Starfrost (OSAS One-shot)

    Aww, it’s smol Wes. I’m glad he has someone looking out for him. Given the cipher involvement I guess Alden probably isn’t the best person ever, but still… I want to believe in him. (I don’t see anything when I look him up. Must be an OC, I guess.) Wes is a lot cleverer and funnier than I am...
