#When I was playing alpha I didn't really talk to the NPCs

[palialaina]

I have been staring at this page for like... twenty minutes, trying to figure out where to start. I know it's my own journal, but still. Today was just. It's been...

Okay.

I'm gonna back up.

I have been trying, very hard, to not step on TIsh's toes. I couldn't just come out and ask if she or Reth have feelings for Jel, and I mean... I also don't want to ruin the friendships I'm building either by presuming too much.

I told Kenyatta about the letter Zeki sent me, and she said he was just trying to make a quick coin, but also that Grimalkin have a really up there sense of smell, so he could probably... smell my interest, even if he didn't know who it was aimed at.

That's really really weird to think about. I'm not gonna think about it.

Anyways, she also said that if it was her, she'd just confess.

I pointed out that she and Nai'o only think their subtle, and she hit me with a sheaf of papers. I'm glad we're friends.

I asked Dad about it too. Sort of. More like he saw I was moping around town a little while I tried to decide and gently dragged me up to the Remembrance Garden to pry it out of me. I don't remember having a dad, but if I did, I hope he was as nice as Ashura.

And Ashura said that I couldn't control what someone else felt about me, but also that if I didn't try, I'd never know, and settling, like Eshe and Kenli, was a far cry from being in love with your potential life partner.

Dad's definitely got some romantic in him though, cause he told me a little about how he courted Sabine, and it was adorable. I keep wondering...

Getting ahead of myself.

So I took the money from the house fun, and bought some chocolates from Zeki... and then proceeded to avoid town and do everything but give them to Jel.

In my defense, I panicked.

He uh... well, he tracked me down? I mean, not like I was really hiding. I was so tongue tied, I just... shoved the box at him, and the way his face lit up. Oh my gosh. Apparently he'd been doing the exact same thing and worrying about what sort of gesture he could make and it was just as simple as this silly box of chocolates...

I don't really know what comes next, but he kissed my cheek before he left, and now I visit the shop and his smile is just so much softer. Oh, I do not know what to do with myself when he smiles at me! I just... I feel all soft and squishy and giddy!

....I hope it doesn't bother Tish any. I really really hope it doesn't. Or Reth...

Ugh. Though, speaking of Jel does remind me of something Hekla asked me to do that was pretty funny.

I really want to know why she wanted a potato, some cloth, and buttons, but at the same time, I'mm a little afraid to ask. The Goldur are strange beings. I mean, I don't think she'd hurt me or anything, but the answer might make my brain hurt?

But it meant I had to go ask Jel if he had any spare buttons, since I... don't. (Maybe I should get a sewing kit? I almost ripped my leggings twice while chasing sernuk...) And he wanted to know if there was any specific types. When I shrugged at him, well, you'd think I'd called down some sort of storm.

When I told him the buttons were for Hekla, he stopped ranting about fabric types vs. button types, and then handed me a couple of blue plastic ones. I don't think he wants to know either. I did tell him I'd come sit through a lesson on buttons and fabrics later though. Honestly, it sounds interesting! I don't think I'll ever be a seamstress the way he's a tailor, but knowing basic repairs can't hurt, can it?

He saw me holding the kamera, and when I explained what it was, he said we should take a picture together. This makes me look so short... but then again, could just be that he's tall?

Maybe both.

I did some more work on building furniture and arranging my house. I think I'm getting better at this! I made myself some shelving for my loose dishes, a couple cabinets for some spare things, moved the planter Jel gave me into my room, picked up some candles...

Oh, and the lute! I have to remember to ask Uncle B to teach me how to play sometime! I tried it myself earlier, but I must have calluses in all teh wrong spots, since now my fingers are kind of... um... bloody.

I may have tried a little too hard. Oops.

Dustin's pretty boy brother

Omegaverse

X

It was no secret that Dustin Henderson had an unreasonably pretty older brother, it was a fact.

Mikey, Lukas and Will all knew him well, the Omega was usually the one to watch them when they had sessions at their home and was a friend of Nancy. Normally their mom would collect Dustin from club activities at school but today (name) had to as their mom was out of town visiting family leaving (name) with the task, the school was a bit creepy as he walked through the halls while slurping down a slushy, the drink still far too full to make noise as he stood infront of the hellfire club doors where yelling could be heard from the other side.

Quietly (name) knocked on the door, not wanting to be rude and just barge in he heard swearing as the door opened to reveal Mike looking confused and a bit annoyed until he realized who was at the other side "oh hey (name)" mike said more relaxed as he opened the door more to let the pretty Omega in, all eyes immediately on him.

Eddie stared him down before standing up and strutting towards the pretty man "well well... If it isn't the siren that is Hendersons brother" Eddie said with a big grin as he bowed at (name) slightly, the Omega tilting his head slightly as he looked into those pretty brown eyes before turning to look at his brother "I'm here to collect you, it's 6" (name) said simply as Dustin sighed "were almost done, just a little longer?"

(Name) thought for a second before agreeing, a bit awkward as he was the only Omega in a room full of alphas and betas but sat beside his brother awkwardly and watched the others immerse themselves and was kind of in awe at how Eddie took over the room and tried not to giggle at some of the voices he did for NPC characters not realizing Eddie was playing up a bit more for him.

Eddie could feel the pretty boy's eyes on him every so often and would stare back with a smirk, the two making eye contact until (name) decided his drink was far more interesting and eventually (name) looked at his watch and realized how late it was "shit..."

"What is it angel?" Eddie said with a head tilt and (name) looked at his brother "it's almost 9"

The room went quiet as they checked their watches "we shall continue this tomorrow!" Eddie said loudly as everyone collected their stuff, (name) giving his brother the last bit of the slushy as the large group walked out and tossed the cup in a trash can.

"Shoot... Forgot my notebook" Dustin said in realization as he quickly ran back to the class to retrieve it, leaving (name) to wait by the car "will I be seeing you tomorrow?" Eddie asked leaning against the car and smiling at (name) who tilted his head with a sweet smile "we will just have to wait and see... dungeon Master"

The Omegas words did things to Eddie as (name) gently placed a hand on the brunettes chest and leaned forward "goodnight Eddie" before walking to the drivers seat as Dustin came back with his notebook "Later Eddie!"

Eddie watched them drive off with a playful smile, he knew (name) would be there tomorrow.

He saw the way he looked at him

"So are you and Eddie gonna date or something?" Dustin asked as the siblings grabbed McDonald's for dinner and (name) choking slightly on his drink "What would make you think that?!"

"Don't act like I didn't see you two looking at each other"

"What would you say if I did consider going on a date with him"

"He would treat you right" Dustin said resolutely and (name) smiled, the siblings finishing their meals before going home.

The next day (name) dropped Dustin off, dressed in a soft sweater and jeans as the younger beta talked animatedly about the campaign so far, giving more context to the events and (name) nodded along.

He didn't really get d&d but he was happy it made his brother so happy.

"Well well, he does show" Eddie says with a big ol' grin and (name) rolls his eyes "well if you don't want me here..." (Name) said playfully as Dustin dragged him to the spot he was at the night previously but this time no drink as they prepared the set up, Eddie watching as (name) looked at the table curious.

Four hours passed and eventually they took a 15 minute break to pee or smoke and (name) stood up to stretch not realizing it was just him and Eddie in the room "I knew you would show"

"Did you?"

The two stared at each other as Eddie walked close "yes I did" he said staring into (name)s soul with a big grin "what can I say... Some things left me...captivated"

(Name) was not afraid to match Eddie's energy as the brunette chuckled and the two were practically touching nose to nose "really? May I ask what things?"

Before things could go on further the others returned causing (name) to back away.

"(Name), is it cool if I stay at wills tonight?" Dustin asked his brother "I don't see why not" (name) said as everyone packed up, Eddie perking up at this news.

"The fair (name)... All alone" Eddie teased "I won't be alone if you take me out instead" (name) fired back with a smirk and Eddie halted "for real?"

(Name) nodded with a playful look on his face and walked out, Eddie not too far behind with a smirk.

[nemesis-is-my-middle-name]

I Love the idea that the Pearl Clan just sort of adores Ingo at this point. Yeah yeah suspicious of strangers and all that, but to them Ingo isn't a stranger anymore, he's one of them. The Pearl Clan probably showed him off as their new Warden very smugly. "Oh, you have Wardens that have, like, one pokemon to their name? Well our new Warden is so fucking good with these monstrously powerful beasts that he has six, and they're all perfectly behaved and fully evolved. Our Warden is way cooler and more powerful than all of yours combined, so take that, losers. Oh and, by the way? Yeah, Almighty Sinnoh gave him to us, so clearly we have the real god. Sucks to suck."

It definitely helps that Ingo is a very nice, polite man who just wants to be helpful, in a place where help is sorely needed. His team was likely also very helpful, in terms of gathering stuff. I mean, they have their kids out there gathering stuff, and it's hard to the point of weariness; there's no way he wouldn't try to use all the tools he has to do some of the harder stuff. That must mean a lot to people who have so little and are struggling to survive that much. They showed him kindness, or at least decency, by letting him stay at first despite the fact that it very clearly would have been a strain on their limited resources, and he repaid that tenfold, not even out of obligation or because he felt he owed them but just because he's a good person who genuinely wants to help. He stopped being a stranger when he put so much work into helping them survive, despite the danger to himself and the fact he really didn't have to. And now he's the Warden to their resident supermodel, so he's kind of a local celebrity. (Perhaps in the back of his mind he's like, 'hmm, this feels familiar? But as usual, it feels hollow, like I'm missing the most important part.')

YEAH!!! ingo truly had 0 ulterior motives. he wasn't even in it to like, repay them, or get them to like him more, he was very obviously and very genuinely just like. determined to improve everyone's lives. and +++ this if you also think he was like, the first person in A While to be able to talk lady sneasler into Doing Her Job. especially b/c of the other thing i was saying abt how difficult it is to get in and out of the icelands without her help. AND +++this if you also think that right now, specifically is a very difficult time for the pearl clan, which i do. an npc in jubilife has a line about the protag like “You fall right out of nowhere and start setting things right when they’re falling apart… You’re like the hero in some sort of play!” but that really is what ingo did huh.

anyway i already said this but now i cannot stop thinking abt the idea that ingo trains misc. pokemon specifically to drop them off at the pearl clan settlement so they can help out. they can never predict what it's gonna be either. sometimes it's a gligar. sometimes it's one of lady sneasler's kits that had to be hand raised and now doesn't want to leave by itself. sometimes it's an ALPHA ELECTABUZZ. his current goal is to get them some more fire types or fire move users, so they have more than just irida's flareon and whenever palina comes up and brings growlithe, but it's so hard to find ones that can tolerate the cold well.

#the nemesis speaks #the nemesis answers #anonymous #pla analysis #? #the electabuzz was probably for settlement defense since allegedly they're normally reliant on avalugg who's pretty sedentary #related to the idea that ingo has a lot more like. befriended pokes from doing warden duties. his in game team are just his closest partner #see also: the alphas he fights you with #which are probably not ''alphas'' in the sense of frenzied but probably ARE ex-alphas loyal bc of the curing #tbf he is used to a team of 11...

[reallyromealone]

The room halted as a tear stained Omega quickly went into the room and closed the door behind him, looking up to see the hellfire club stare back confused as his slightly bloodshot eyes locked with the clear leaders doe like brown ones.

"Shit.. sorry I thought this was an empty classroom" (name) choked out and shaking he exited the room, leaving the club confused "wait here" Eddie said softly as he got up and went after the crying Omega, it didn't feel right to leave him.

(Name) was sobbing in the bathroom when Eddie found him, the Omega shaking and hugging himself "are you...ok?" Eddie asked and felt a little dumb saying it, obviously be wasn't. Looking up (name) shook his head as the sound of billies voice rang through the balls and Eddie watched the crying man cover his mouth to keep quiet as billy passed, most likely had checked this bathroom when (name) went to the hellfire club by accident.

"Are you... Hiding from billy?" Eddie asked softly, kneeling before the Omega who let out a painful sob "h-he---" he could barely finish his sentence as he let out more sobs and Eddie barely processed his own movements as he pulled the Omega into his arms and began soothing him with soft touches and relaxing pharamones and after what felt like hours the Omega finally relaxed.

"You good now?"

"I'm sorry..."

"Why are you sorry?" Eddie was confused as the Omega fiddled with his shirt "I interrupted your game and bothered you..." Eddie was floored as he took in the others words, the Omega felt guilty over that?

"Don't be sorry, you shouldn't be sorry for something like this... Do you wanna talk about it?"

(Name) looked down before speaking "Billy and I were dating for a few months and today I learned he only began courting me to make my brother upset, not because he actually wanted me and he was... He was gonna have...relations and then dump me"

Eddie wanted to fucking destroy Billy but refrained doing so because he knew he would get fucking murdered, not to mention that he had a very fragile Omega in his arms currently.

At the moment this took precedence.

"You wanna hang at Hellfire club until it's safe to go? I can drive you home if you want"

(Name) considered his words before speaking "will I be a bother?"

"Absolutely not"

(Name) nodded as the two stood "I never got your name..."

"Oh! Eddie Munson at your service!" Then Eddie did a dramatic bow that made the angel giggle "may I know the fair maidens name?"

"(Name), (name) Harrington o' helpful knight" (name) giggled and played along with his antics, making Eddie smile widely and thought (name) was still puffy eyed and Shakey he was considerably happier than before.

When they returned to hellfire club, Eddie set him on a comfy chair beside his throne as the game continued and every so often he would glance at the Omega who looked facinated at the game before him and the voices Eddie would put on for NPCs.

When it was finally time to leave Eddie kept his word and drove the Omega home, the faint smell of weed in the van but (name) payed no mind "I was wondering... If you wanted to hang out sometime" (name) said softly and Eddie was shocked, not a lot of people activity wanted to hang out with him so he didn't really know how to reply "sorry... I was overstepping wasn't I?" (Name) said frantically as the Alpha stopped the car and pulled over "I would love to hang out with you sweetheart but I may taint any reputation you have"

"Well after today, that really doesn't matter to me anymore"

Eddie smiled and continued driving and didn't connect the last name as he saw Steve standing outside their house as they drove up "what's Stevie doing here?"

"Oh he's my brother " (name) said simply as if it were obvious and Eddie looked at him like he had six heads and then it all clicked "oh damn"

"Is...is that a problem?" (Name) became slightly more meek and Eddie gave him his sweet smile "not at all prince ~"

He watched as (name) blushed slightly at the nickname "well...see you tomorrow yeah?"

"Yeah, see you tomorrow"

He wasn't expecting (name) to give him a gentle Peck on the cheek and thanked God it was to dark for the Omega to see his blush.

He watched as the Omega walked to his clearly worried brother and smiled and drove off.
