Snow angel

Tsubayuki was seemingly unsurprised by the fox’s response. He may not have answered her question, but the lopunny decided to respect their decision in doing so. Besides, with how he spoke, there was something else she wished to press the ninetales on instead.

”I must admit that my knowledge of ninetales is rather minimal. All I have heard is that your kind places curses upon those that pull your tails.

However with a title like ‘the demon of fire’, it has me wonder just how much of these tales I have missed over the years. But I will respect your wishes and save the question of what happened for whoever you would deem fit to answer.” She said, her tone was calm and respectful as she spoke.

“A millenium certainly is a long sentence for a punishment, but at the very least that time does have an end. And I will agree with you that compassion is a welcome thing to receive from time to time, especially when you live with decades of contempt for yourself. However I must say that my words come more from a place of empathy rather than naive kindness.”

“But perhaps said empathy truly is misplaced. And for me to be sure, I have only one other question.”

“If you do not, then that would be what is disappointing.”

After searching the Tundra for about 30 minutes, Clementine eventually heard the sounds of combat and headed towards the source of the noise.

When she arrived she found the two ladies she was looking for in the middle of a sort of training session. Seeing Linda fighting multiple snow duplicates of Tsubayuki which are standing between her and the original Tsubayuki.

Realizing what she walked in on she decides to pull out Malware, her rotomdex, and sit and watch their session instead of interrupting them.

She sat there for about 6 minutes watching the snow copies attempt to swipe at Linda with ice staffs, swords, and whips to keep her from reaching the real Tsubayuki, whom Clementine put together that Linda’s goal was to land a hit on.

Clementine proceeded to watch Linda smash through the ice swords and snow copies to get closer Tsubayuki, only to be repeatedly blocked and thrown back by another copy just as Linda was about to land a hit on the lopunny. And this continued for several minutes before one of the snow clones noticed Clementine.

In the brief moment of distraction that Clementine provided, Linda once again smashed the snow copy to go for another strike on Tsubayuki. This time however, Linda was met with Tsubayuki dodging her punch by turning her body and leaning back out of the way. Shortly afterwards opening her eyes and standing up as the rest of her ice copies collapse back into the snow they stood in.

”Hmm?” Linda, curious as to why Tsubayuki suddenly got up, turned her head around with a furrowed brow to see what got her attention. “Oh hey.” She said as she found her answer waving at her as she did to Tsubayuki.

“Yes, hello Clementine. Is there something that you need?”

“Hello you two, I’m sorry if I interrupted your training session.” She said as she got up and brushed some snow off the back of her pants and coat. “I came out here to because I felt I should introduce a couple members of my team that will be helping me out with my job during I stay here. One of which has been looking forward to meet you Tsubayuki. If you two don’t mind that is.”

There was a moment of silence as the two lady mons paused to consider Clementine’s request before they turned back to her.

“Yeah a little introduction never hurt anyone.”

Pokeask community,,, are you still out there,,,

askiceboundlopunny asked:

Linda@Kass: "Well hey, feels like it's been a while since I've seen you around. What's this I've been hearing about you fighting battles for a skitty? Surely people have been trying to mess with me." She asked with a smug grin. "I thought your thing was kidnapping kids, but I guess you now take orders from them?" She chuckles a bit. "Curious what I'll hear next about you if all that's really true. Doing berry picking for a weedle maybe?"

leilani-and-kass answered:

“Yeah, yeah, laugh at the dragon that got humiliated by a wimpy little Skitty, it’s hilarious, ain’t it? Like it’s my fucking fault that happened to be the one powerful Skitty in this entire Arceus damned world. Don’t even tell me you wouldn’t think the same thing seein’ a normally weak Pokemon like that!”

“… Besides, that little freak had an army of dragons, and if I remember right, you’re a Dragon type too, ain’t you? They would have had you under their paw in their little army, too! Don’t even try to deny that!”

“… Grrrr… but still, maybe you’re right, and I am growin’ soft. Too trusting. It’s because of that damned Popplio kid, gotta be.”

@askiceboundlopunny

Linda was thinking of jokes she could crack at Kass’s expense as she listened to his excuses. However her smug grin turned into a blank smile, raising an eyebrow as she started to consider the possibility that he was actually being serious about what he’s telling her.

And then he started talking about the army and the her smile faded.

“Wait you mean that actually happened? I thought mons were spreading that rumor as a joke.” She stated, dumbfounded at the idea. A dragon acting on the whims of a small cat, and multiple dragons at that, she couldn’t fathom the idea. She even felt insulted that this kommo-o would assume she would even consider participating in such a thing. However despite all that, she felt a morbid curiosity as to how such a thing could be possible.

But first thing’s first, she needed to make something clear. With a puff of smoke huffed through her nostrils, a sneering grin replacing her scowl, and her pupils narrowed. Linda spoke once again.

“Listen, you and whoever else was in that army may have been fine throwing your dignity away to work for a little kitten. But if that skitty ever wants a chance to try and get ME join them, then they’d have to see how many dragons of theirs they’d be willing to lose to take me.” The dragoness emphasized with a low growl in her voice at the end of the sentence. “I’m not a dragon you can just tame.” She states. Feeling like she made her point she huffs once more and puts on her usual smug grin again.

“That being said, it’s good to see that you’re starting to realize it yourself that you’re soft for a dragon. And I won’t lie either and say that you haven’t gotten me a little curious about this all powerful skitty. If they really do exist. ”

Linda wasn’t fully prepared for the response she got. However with what she’s heard about the red and blue orbs, she quickly put together what might have happened and put her hands up defensively with an awkward smile.

“Trust me, I wouldn’t dream of it. Mega stones are more my thing anyways.” She states as she scratches the back of her head nervously. “Sounds like that story is a pretty sensitive one, I didn’t know. Sorry for bringing that up.” The mienshao apologized. “I guess with all the incredible tales people tell about you guys, I forget that the scars might not all have as great of a story.” She said with a bit of disappointment and sympathy in her voice.

However the dragoness wasn’t about to give up hope that maybe there was a good story this Hoenn god was willing to share. So she placed her hands on her hip, letting her sleeves droop to the floor and gave a friendly smile once more. “Still though, surely there are still plenty good fights with strong opponents that you have faced in your life that you’d be more willing to talk about right?” She asked hopefully. “Probably had battle with pokemon that I could only wish to fight.”

“Wait now?” Nintai asked in a mix of surprise and confusion. “Are we not going to wait for the others?” She followed, furrowing a brow.
Clementine waves her hand dismissively with a smile. “She can be introduced to them later, wouldn’t want to move...

“Wait now?” Nintai asked in a mix of surprise and confusion. “Are we not going to wait for the others?” She followed, furrowing a brow.

Clementine waves her hand dismissively with a smile. “She can be introduced to them later, wouldn’t want to move too quickly and overwhelm her now would we?”

”She’s right, we can’t be too overbearing or she might get defensive and force us out.”

Clementine gives a nod to Sandra’s point. “Yeah, remember that we’re guests here and need to be nice for things to go smoothly. And besides, the boys know what to do when they get here.”

”That’s a good point, my apologies.”

Nintai then let out an eep in reaction to Sandra suddenly wrapping an arm around her and pulling her in.

Clementine covered her mouth as she couldn’t help but giggle at Nintai’s face before reaching for the pokeballs on her belt.

“Mhm! That said, are you two ready to go?”

Sandra lets Nintai free from her arm, eagerly replying to her trainer, “You betcha!” while Nintai simply nods in confirmation.

This is 6 years now?

Yes I’m still working on the update, I’ve just been working at a much slower pace than usual. which is why I don’t have an image drawn this time. Also some of you may have noticed attempts to be more active in the community again this past month. Gonna be honest I still have my doubts if I should try but I also feel it wouldn’t hurt at the same time.

I’ve missed writing my girls, I still draw them, but I haven’t written for them in a while and I wanna get back to doing that. Hopefully by the end of this year or next year I’ll be able to have it ready. Might have the first part posted this year tho so there’s that to look forward to.

Wonder if some planned interactions would get me back into the swing of things again here…

Maybe…

So this blog has been a thing for 5 years now and I’m gonna be up front with y’all. This Anniversary post is gonna be a bit venty. But don’t get it twisted I appreciate those of you who have stuck with me and still see and interact with my stuff. But...

So this blog has been a thing for 5 years now and I’m gonna be up front with y’all. This Anniversary post is gonna be a bit venty. But don’t get it twisted I appreciate those of you who have stuck with me and still see and interact with my stuff. But I feel like I’ve lost my desire to be in this community. Really feels like I haven’t been in it for at least two years now if I’m being honest.

When I still tried to be reach out to interact with people in an ask call it took almost a week for someone to want an ask from one of my girls, which is why I stopped doing those. In the pokeask discords whenever I tried posting something, either I was ignored or no one cared what I had to share and said nothing and the next message in the channel was something from someone else which immediately gets comments about it, or worse a reply to something above my art. And munday is something I just hate seeing nowadays because I can’t participate in them even if I wanted to. I’m lucky to get A single ask while I scroll through minutes of munday posts at a time. And I’m just sick of the envy it all brings me. And the last ask that wasn’t received from an ask call was at least 2 and a half years ago.

And it confuses me as to what I started doing wrong as this was not the case when I was new and reaching out to people. I’ve taken notes and done what the successful blogs said to do when you start out. And after the first year and half of me running this thing the activity on my posts just got lower and lower. And I’m normally not the type of person who cares about that sort of thing. But it gets to you when I see someone who vanished for a year, make one post out of the blue and get 5 times your average notes and then vanish again for another year. Makes me wonder what I’m doing wrong which I can only guess is my lack of frequent updates. Which y’all keep telling me to go at my own pace. But my own pace isn’t good enough to maintain attention. Either that or my art isn’t good enough.

However I have a community that I feel I’m an active part in now so I don’t feel a need to wear myself out trying to be a part of this one. Don’t get it twisted, I’m not leaving this blog or the community as a whole. To be honest I really hate blogs I love up and ending out of nowhere after they’ve been hyped up for a while by the person running it. Not to say they don’t have a right to do what they want with their time. But for me, I’m just gonna lurk around until something changes and work at my own pace. Which is also gonna be much slower as I can’t keep putting 95% of my time into this blog when I have a lot of other things I want to draw still.

So in a nutshell, I’m still here, partly out of spite, partly to fulfill the promise to myself of finishing this blog and I appreciate my regulars leaving likes on my stuff and you can count on me working on this blog at a gradual pace.

The next plot post is honestly gonna be the biggest lull for a while, it’s in multiple parts but I want to post them all together over the course of a few days. Part 1 is done btw, I just need to finish the other 3.

Hopefully this site will still be here next year. Love you guys.

Whether I’m in the ask blog community or not this blog will get done. But sometimes I wonder if anyone will see me finish it. Sure feels sometimes that no one will.

I’m not dead but I’m still working on the posts for the next update

I’m not drawing something to put here just to make sure people see it, so if you do you do.

Things are going very very slowly cause I have been busy with other shit as well. Not serious shit, just other things that have my attention more than the blog. I’m chipping away at it tho.

But I’m sure you already know that. So instead of leave it at that. I want to leave some things that will come in time after the next update in no particular order.

A mini arc with Tsubayuki and Linda in a body swap anon magic to let them learn about each other more
Showcase how physically strong Linda is with her strongest move
have a little block of a few asks directed at the mysterious figure shown after Tsubayuki took Esket’s soul
Build on Clementine and Linda a bit more via asks
do more posts outside of asks that build on the girls and clementine’s team
and of course I’m working on the final fight in the blog which will be fun

I also still need to think of dumb interactions to post in between posts but I can’t come up with shit as easily as other people so hecc. But ye, I’m still chippin away at the update so do be patient with me.

Also Imma bitch a lil bit under the cut if you care to read

The girls stand in silence as they take in Glyndower’s looming figure for what feels like several minutes. Nintai remains in stunned silence as her trainer appears unphased and almost amused by the giant’s display.

“Now why would a sweet little thing like you want to know that hmm? I hope you aren’t thinking about trying anything now. Cause I’ll warn you, it wouldn’t end well.” She warned in a playful tone. “I report to my colleagues regularly. And in the event something were to happen to me on the field, my team members are to report back immediately. At which point, it becomes a monster hunt.”

Clementine takes a few leisurely steps towards the behemoth as she continues. “Now say you were to kill me right here, you would have a day or two to hide before you’d be tracked down.” She explained as she craned her neck to make eye contact again. “But you’re far from the biggest thing we’ve had to deal with.” She added, her arms still folded underneath her chest wearing her confident, almost smug look on her face.

“And if you still don’t believe me, I can tell you how we incapacitate smaller giants like you.” She turns around and walks next to Nintai again as she raises a hand to her side with index finger extended. Visually counting the steps as she speaks. “First we hinder the movement, often with by paralysis. Second, after the target has been subdued, we proceed to incapacitate the them by cutting the joints and the base of the tail if there is one with pokemon specialized to do so cleanly and swiftly. And lastly from there once the target is fully immobilized we take a shot at capture before going ahead at termination.” Clementine looks back over her shoulder at Glyndower as she wags the 3 fingers on her hand for emphasis.

Clementine leaned to the side to look past the giant water type in front of her as she addressed her companion behind him.

Clementine let’s out a chuckle. “No, everything’s fine. We were just having a friendly chat.” She answers as she stands upright again and looks up at Glyndower once more. “Right sweetheart?"

“I would have to say about six or seven months since she started training me as soon as I joined her.“ She answered as she floated towards the clearing. Her gaze drifting towards the floor as a smile forms under her cowl.

"Before I met her I was fending for myself in the Senekai mountain caves. Doing what I could just to get by. Constantly hiding and struggling to find food. So on that day when she found me, I can’t say that I’ve been happier.” As the two pokemon entered the clearing Nintai rose her head to see her trainer waving her down.

She turns back towards the Mr. Mime, clasps her hands and bows her head. “I must go now sorry.”

“Welcome back Hun! You been making some new friends already?” Clementine greeted her pokemon as she floated towards her.

“Oh. Ummm, no. I was just talking with a few pokemon just like everyone else.” She answered as the froslass looks around at the empty clearing for a moment. “So am I still the first one back?”

“Yup. So far you’re the only one who’s shown up. But I have a feeling at least one of the others will show up soon.”
