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...

Chap 1 was honestly really fun! I think you did a good job capturing Aaron's character. You keep the child-like eagerness but I can already see that he also wants to do good and make a difference in the world. The start itself was very simple plotwise, but does exactly what it needs to imo...

Koa shifted from paw to paw, eyes nearly bulging. Red was here? Former Champion of Kanto? His thoughts spiraled. How was this even possible? In his world, Red had been Champion for short time, before leaving. Had he come here? Could there be other, parallel humans worlds out there? Or- Oh, who...

Yes. This felt so good. He hated it, hated how Brisa was faster than him, stronger than him, more experienced. But he also felt like he was finally learning. Finally making progress, and improving. Every time he got hit, he got back up, determined and ready for more. Was this how it felt...

These pokemon all spoke so strangely compared to where he was from... Dismissing the thought, he focused on what lay before him. Koa tensed, evaluating Brisa like he would if it were a pokemon battle. Luxray were usually physical fighters. But he also didn't really know any ways to attack from...

Bellyachin? He almost might have been annoyed by her comment, save for how she reminded him of Kitto's admonishments, just a bit. Besides, he kinda liked her direct attitude. "You can show me how to fight?" His tail started to wag slightly at the idea of real training, not just bumbling...

He shook the offered paw, the movement still a bit awkward with his quadruped body. Koa tensed, stifling a growl of annoyance. Not at Brisa, but at everything. Showing up late, not being able to fit in with the team, not knowing who anyone was. He huffed, then nodded. "Yeah," he grumbled. "I...
