Koa eyed the landscaped, fascinated. Would his Reverse World be like this? Somehow he doubted he'd ever see it. That would require meeting his world's Giratina... His gaze drifted to watch some of the inhabitants, trying to see if anyone looked suspicious (or would that be normal?) or if he...

Koa took a long moment to take in their words. Would they understand if he spoke normally, or did he have to speak in reverse too? Giratina hadn't. And only answers seemed to be swapped. "We're looking for someone, a Charmander, I believe, named Sword?" he asked the Pidgey. "Have you seen one...

In which Koa makes a new friend (Art by the lovely @Cresselia92 !)

The Reverse World. He'd always heard about, always read theories about its existence. He knew it was real. Giratina's domain, a world opposite his own. But to actually see it with his own eyes... Something he'd never thought he'd ever get to see. And to be here with Giratina (well, he used the...

"You don't pay for anything because someone else is," he grumbled. He sighed again, feeling more annoyed than anything. This was too much like conversations back home, too much like people he'd spoken to. "And I'm not branding you as evil." Just annoying. Infuriating. Maddening. "If you want...

Koa let out a disdainful snort. "Do you think that means someone gets to do whatever they want? Is someone allowed to do evil just because they might forget it later?" He sighed. "Never mind. Maybe you don't get it."

Koa's eyes widened slightly in surprise. So Bahamut's universe was long gone? Not unlike his could have been if the Galactic incident had gone differently... "Well, I don't see the point in making my stay here miserable." His voice was a little more relaxed now, though he still felt mildly...

Another fun chapter! This time we get to meet Aaron's fellow squadmates and boy are they characters! You did great giving everyone a quirk and making them feel unique. I definitely wouldn't have trouble telling them apart. Callie is rather amusing to me! Also the mention of a Necrozma Cult is...

Koa pulled away at the touch, annoyed by the gesture, and shot Bahamut a dirty look. Still, his words were a stark reminder of what had happened just before he'd arrived. He forced himself to pause, take a breath before speaking. "You don't have to be a pessimist to be cautious though. You can...

Red crowded Koa's vision. He gritted his teeth, his body tensing. "Maybe you're old and pessimistic." Some part of him was aware that he had no idea the experiences Bahamut had been through, and perhaps he was being too harsh. But Bahamut was wrong. He'd hoped at least that he wouldn't have to...

Koa scowled and moved away from Bahamut a good couple of feet, picking his way out of his coils. Great. Another one of those types. Bahamut might have been a pokemon but he sounded exactly like plenty of humans he'd met back home. Clearly he wasn't like any legendary from his world. Familiar...

"A legendary isn't exactly a god," Koa said finally. "I mean, people in my world used to call them that but there's more to it than that." He paused. No Arceus, Dialga, or Palkia? No... Giratina. An image of the shadowy dragon flashed through his mind. No protector. That sounded awful. "The...

"Well... thanks for the heads up." At least he wouldn't die. At Bahamut's next words, he withheld a grimace. He really had no interest in the romantic lives of his teammates. Another thought quickly occupied his mind. One he'd been turning over since he'd first met Bahamut, though he'd...

Koa's eyes widened. "Wait... too much radiance blows you up?" he said. Nobody had ever said that. And what happened if he did? Still, how bad could it be if the rest of the team used it? Maybe Bahamut just meant they exploded some other way? "You mean figuratively blow up?"

Koa stopped, surprised at the voice, and looked to see Bahamut. The strange pokemon towered over him in size, but Koa didn't find himself too frightened. More fascinated than anything. Well, fascinated and annoyed. . He still remembered the remark he'd made back at the Tree of Life. "I'm...

Koahurried through Destiny Village, towards a park he'd noted earlier. Ever since against Red (Champion Red, he still couldn't believe that they'd fought him and won) he couldn't rest. Despite all his efforts, he felt like he hadn't done enough. He could have fought more. Harder. Stronger. If...

I have some thoughts about chapter 1. I'll do my best to compile them. I'll probably keep these reviews short and sweet because otherwise paralysis will make me take for EVER so. First up! I like the opening. You communicate a solid sense of disjointed chaos and confusion. There's a good amount...

Logging another review for the ever fun HAA! Chapter 2 https://forums.thousandroads.net/index.php?threads/heroes-after-all.46/post-28760

Chapter 2 is read! I have to say, I personally enjoy a fic every now and then with short chapters. Given your preferred style I think the length works really well for you! I feel like you have a good handle on only including bits that feel necessary to the story you want to tell. I'm genuinely...
