    Pokémon The Legendarian Chronicles

    Chapter 45 Love Stalker just going "I need his strength!" like that's all the counterargument needed. Almost reminiscent of TQftL Taylorlogic - if he needs a thing, then that's sufficient reason for him to take it, and he just sees no cause to justify it in any other way than that. A nice...

    Blitz 2024: Hype and Rec Thread

    Posting a Weekly Fic Rec for @elyvorg's Nothing Fickle About Loyalty. When she mentioned she was planning to write a fic about Kieran's Hydrapple, I figured it would be a fun exploration of Kieran's arc from the point of view of one of his Pokémon - but once I actually got to read the first...

    Pokémon The Legendarian Chronicles

    Chapter 44 That moment when Rayquaza is completely out of the loop. :copyka2: Love Starr's protectiveness while also knowing Jade has to do this. They're so good. Mark standing up to Chaletwo energy :quag: Love this moment - Lugia being actually afraid, Jade sensing that vulnerability for...

    Pokémon The Legendarian Chronicles

    Chapter 43 :copyka2: Enjoy this - it's just very human, both to forget it in the first place and to then think about it like God, he must have felt like I'm an idiot. :copyka2: She is fine TQftL Floatzel energy ~Trauma~ Tootally not waiting for the other thing the Rockets are known to be...

    Pokémon The Legendarian Chronicles

    Chapter 42 Enjoy that there's a Face Jade Makes When Talking to Lugia. Cute trainer-Pokémon interaction flavor. This is also good. I'm enjoying them doing a little thinking about how weird this is. Also very good. These poor kids. :copyka2: Excellent. Oooof. Makes sense, doesn't it. Love...

    Fanfic Goals 2025

    I'm hoping to get more properly going on the Morphic rewrite this year. Lots of plans and thoughts slowly coalescing, and with no other writing projects in the way (at least right now), I can focus on that. I've got other stuff going on as always, but I expect to be making more steady progress...

    Non-Pokémon Hung Up [The Good, the Bad and the Ugly one-shot]

    Thanks for reviewing, all of you!

    Pokémon Nothing Fickle About Loyalty

    Looking forward to Applin eventually noticing the lack of that twinkle in his eye :copyka2: Oh, Kieran. This hurts knowing where it's going. Oh noooo :sadwott: Of course he puts it like that. Man. Man, that's kind of symbolic of where Kieran's relationship with his Pokémon is headed, huh...

    Pokémon Gathering Moss [Magical but Mundane 2024 Contest One-Shot, Pikachu Flight 1st Place]

    I didn't manage to finish before end of one-shot week, but I did read this, so it seems only right to still leave a review! I think you did a really good job on this one. Terra is very well characterized; their unwavering devotion to doing their duty and serving permeates everything and is...

    Blitz 2024: Hype and Rec Thread

    My Weekly fic rec goes to @kintsugi's kunāne, which is a slow-building, super evocative story about grief and moving on. It's quite heavy, and mind the content warnings, but if you like a good tragedy with a heavy dose of issues, it's a very stirring one. The narrator's depression and...

    Pokémon kunāne (oneshot)

    So this is a story I have wanted to read for a long time, having gathered the general themes were pretty me-core, but never got around to. I hope it's not weird that I'm coming to it now five years later; it was just something that came to mind now as I was thinking of one-shots I wanted to...

    Blitz 2024: Self-Promo and Review Exchange Thread

    May as well do a promo post, especially since I have a few one-shots for anyone who is interested this week! In general, I appreciate all feedback, but specific preferences per-story are noted below. I'm generally especially interested in thoughts on the characters in a story, whether their...

    Non-Pokémon Hung Up [The Good, the Bad and the Ugly one-shot]
    Threadmarks: Hung Up

    My accidental obsession for the past few months has been the film The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966), Sergio Leone's famous spaghetti Western about three men on the hunt for buried gold during the American Civil War, which is great and fun and I highly recommend it (you can find the whole...

    Pokémon Just Hold Still

    Chapter 13 Very cathartic to see her write this after all this. Also just really good - that you had only moderately superhuman patience and what you concealed from me under duress hit really well, sort of getting at exactly the protestations the reader will have internally raised to Luke's...

    Pokémon Just Hold Still

    Chapter 12 Oof, Luke. But I suppose that is the real proof it wasn't his fault. :copyka2: I guess it did end up being the worst thing Luke ever wrote, huh. Eughhhhhh AARON :screm: :screm: :screm: Screaming with you, Wendy (Love to scream with her instead of at her) Oh boyyyyy. The benefit...

    Pokémon Just Hold Still

    Chapter 11 Really good and cathartic seeing these kids continue to ultimately be pretty good about communicating in their letters even when they have a lot of confused internal screaming going on before they write them. Though... I can't help but notice she mentions she's going to see Nadine...

    Pokémon Just Hold Still

    Chapter 10 Luke, learning to accept a compliment! That's progress! ❤️ Aww. He's also good about this, bless him, which is perhaps one of Wendy's best signs that it's Aaron who was the problem here. Luke's trying so hard to be fair to him, and to Wendy, while still protecting his own wellbeing...

    Pokémon Just Hold Still

    Chapter 9 Both a Pokémon battle that he can't stop, and him wishing he could just stop doing this, I expect. Of course Wendy is speaking with Aaron's voice :copyka2: Too bad he's going solo and can't do the thing with having her use Hypnosis and then someone else recalls her afterwards before...

    Pokémon Just Hold Still

    Chapter 8 Enjoyed the egg-counting sequence - unconventional trainer activity featuring some fun use of a Pokémon. Gravity just having a nebulous hold on the Clefairy line is delightful. Fun detail! Aw. Continuing to bring these cute interactions. Without any full days of rest, huh :copyka2...

    Pokémon Just Hold Still

    Chapter 7 :copyka2: Sure did do a number on him, huh! I enjoy the authentic dream quality of this cold open - none of the ways that he's supposed to be able to stop the battle work and he just has to keep going. Enjoy the logistics of medication - having to keep necessary Pokémon medicine on...
