    Pokémon Places We Call Home

    Happy birthday, Wind! This seems like an excellent opportunity to settle in with some hot chocolate and get caught up on Places We Call Home. Although we don't have a terribly cozy set of chapters here, do we? I'm quite enjoying the uptick in action we've seen since Chapter 20 or so; it looks...

    Hey, wind! Glad to be back with PWCH for Blitz this year. I think at this point I've caught up with all the content you've published so far... although it looks like you may be missing a Chapter 21? Chapter 22 seems to follow directly from 20, so I think that's a numbering issue rather than you...

    Didn’t realize you’d posted this. Glad to see it up! I think this makes for a fun glimpse into Nip’s pre-story life. It feels like a sequence with a lot of little tidbits that might become important later. There’s the ominous little mention of Umbra, for example. I wonder if we’ll end up hearing...

    All right, I'm at the end of the published material, so this is the last review until you next update. Which I hope will be soon! You're already introducing some fascinating stuff this arc, and if this keeps up, I'm sure this next run of chapters will be a lot of fun. I'll start out with notes...

    All right, back to wrap up the second arc. It feels like we're right on the threshold to a big change in the story! It feels like there's still plenty to wrap up in Theran village, primarily to do with whatever's happening with Jhorlo, so I'm curious how that's come together before we move on to...

    All right, let's get into the next story arc! I'm going to look at chapters 10-12 here. Jhorlo's deal with Umbra was the most interesting part of Chapter 10 to me. We knew Jhorlo was shady before, but he's really showing his true colors here! The assertion that scavenging won't produce enough...

    Hey, windskull! Here with the beginning of your much-overdue Blacklight prize reviews. Unfortunately where I left off last time ended up being a kind of an awkward spot, as there's only one chapter left in the initial arc. What I'm going to do is start with that chapter + the bonus here, do the...

    Pokémon Places We Call Home

    At long last, I'm back! Since the last chapter I reviewed was five, I figured I'd do the next three here, which is 6-8. That ends up working out pretty well, since it brings the "Nip in the dungeon" arc to a close. At least, it does unless at the beginning of chapter nine he struggles free of...

    Nice, another chapter! I'm going to have to catch up before I get truly, hideously behind. Chapter 3 Oh man is someone ever in for an unwelcome adventure! It's neat how excited Haru is about getting into the family business, though; it's pretty rare to see a PMD protagonist with ambitions...

    Pokémon Places We Call Home

    On to Chapter 2! It's "bolt upright." I think this would sound a little better if you rephrased it so you aren't repeating "the wall" near the end. One thing to watch out for is that when a character calls another by their name or title in dialogue (e.g. "Hey, Tim!" or "Whatever you say...

    Pokémon Places We Call Home

    Welcome again! Nice to see this here, and I like having the prologue and first chapter posted together here like this. The prologue flows nicely into the start of the story, and having chapter one gives the reader something a bit more substantial to bring them into the story proper. I've already...
