Hello friends, acquaintances, complete strangers, and foes, I have posted the first chapter of my new Sw/Sh fanfic!

This one’s set post-canon, where Hop is sent on a month-long survey of the Glimwood Tangle and forced to spend a month living with Bede and Opal in the process! Lots of exploration of Hop & Bede’s relationship as it was established in the base game, lots of Hop and Bede exploring their new roles as Professor’s Assistant & Gym Leader respectively, lots of the boys and their mentors, and an extra helping of self-indulgent Postwickshipping (Hop/Gloria).

Special mention for me excessively googling British slang and probably being cringefail somewhere as a result, and excessive text messaging.

Will try to update once a week, but... we’ll see.

(Typical AO3 post info below the cut)

Chapters: 1/5 Fandom: Pocket Monsters: Sword & Shield | Pokemon Sword & Shield Versions Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Beet | Bede & Hop, Hop/Yuuri | Gloria, Beet | Bede & Poplar | Opal, Beet | Bede & Yuuri | Gloria, Hop & Sonia (Pokemon) Characters: Hop (Pokemon), Beet | Bede, Yuuri | Gloria, Poplar | Opal, Sonia (Pokemon), Dande | Leon, Masaru | Victor, Mary | Marnie, Zinnia | Jacq (Pokemon Scarlet & Violet) Additional Tags: in which i put two traumatized teens in a room and yell fight, hop/gloria is relatively major but not main focus, discussion of bullying and suicide baiting, Bullying, Post-Canon, sonia and hop are basically bickering siblings, lots of texting segments, Professor Assistant Hop, Gym Leader Bede, Champion Gloria, Victor uh... exists, Brief Visit to Paldea, please tell me i used british slang properly i'm american, Light Angst, Trauma, Found Family, Repairing Broken Relationships, Other Additional Tags to Be Added, i'm sorry the tags are a mess Summary:

After Hop's first successful presentation of his field work on the Isle of Armor, he's put on a new assignment by Professor Sonia: a month-long, intensive survey of the Glimwood Tangle. But when that survey necessitates staying with a certain stuck-up, white-haired gym leader and his peculiar predecessor Opal, things start to go more than a little awry, as old wounds open and old feuds re-ignite. In order to make it through the month, Hop and Bede are going to have to work something out, even if it means that both of them need to assess a lot of thoughts and feelings they'd much rather leave on the backburner. -- Or, Hop is about to have the (second) worst month of his life.

#hop and bede's get along fic #wip #fanfiction #fanfic #ao3 #pokemon fanfiction #hop pokemon #bede pokemon #opal pokemon #sonia pokemon #gloria pokemon #postwickshipping #perhaps a bit bold to declare i have foes.#i think nobody knows me here.#also tysm to everyone who checked out my last fic!! ilysm

FFXIVWrite Day sixteen: Jerk

with @windupnamazu 's Cinnamon .

Airy flew past a couple of trees until she came in sight of a bridge. The immense amount of power she sensed must have been around here somewhere! “Ah-ha!” There it was! A girl that was holding a book! Next to her was another lalafell and a something-or-other that was also lalafell shaped. Whatever it was, it was really small. It looked like they were all looking at something. Airy flew closer and noticed they were all conversing with a fairy. She was a fairy too! Now was her chance! Airy launched herself towards them, kicking away the other fairy with a swift kick. “I’m Airy! Nice to meet you!”

Airy adjusted the sunglasses on her face as another sudden rainstorm decided to hit the Isle of Babycorn for what felt like the seventh time in the past three days. The rain was starting to fog up her sunglasses and it was getting a little too dark to see now too. “Annoying…”

But if there was anything that Airy was, it was stubborn.

That was also partly the reason she was currently sunbathing in the middle of the field where Babycorn’s various pets grazed. According to Airy it was the best spot on the island to sit and soak up the sun. Even though it really wasn’t, she would die before admitting she was wrong.

“Airy.”

Airy heard her name being called and the flapping of wings next to her and did her best to ignore them. At first she thought it must have been the alligator trying to eat her again but then she remembered alligators can’t talk.

“Airy!”

“Sorry she’s busy! Try again later!” Airy rebutted.

The voice calling her name groaned, “Airy if you stay out here you’re going to literally MELT!!” They sounded very desperate. Almost like they didn’t want to be out here either.

And that’s because she really didn’t.

“Hahahahahah! HAH!!” Airy laughed loudly, “There’s no way I’m gonna melt! Besides, the water isn’t even hitting me!” She wasn’t lying. Despite sitting in the middle of a rainstorm Airy was as dry as Babycorn’s corn bread after she left it in the oven for thirteen hours by mistake.

“That’s because I’m holding an umbrella over you idiot.”

Airy’s sunglasses slid off her face. Now that she could actually see things with her eyes she finally was able to see a very tired looking Cinnamon flying above her. She was indeed holding an umbrella. “Well maybe you need that. But I don’t!” Airy boasted, “Unlike you I’m underbaked remember? This girl is already soft and gooey!”

Cinnamon rolled her eyes. “You’re about to be even more softer and gooey-er if you don’t follow me back to the cabin!”

“Why should I? So I have to be surrounded by the power of friendship~ Everywhere I turn with no place to escape? No thank you!!”

At least Airy had finally admitted that it wasn’t safe for her to be flying out in the rain. It wasn’t ideal but it was a start. “Just find a stupid little corner to brood about your ‘evil intentions’ and you’ll survive. I promise.” It was hard for Cinnamon to perform air-quotes while holding an umbrella but she managed.

Airy stood up in her beach chair and stared Cinnamon down. It was the most serious Cinnamon could recall her sister looking in a long while. Not since they reunited back in Old Sharlayan.

“Am I going to have to deal with them flirting right in front of me too?”

Cinnamon raised an eyebrow in confusion. “Do you mean Lunya and G’raha? Yeah probably.” Just earlier today during a game of volleyball they had teamed up to form an unstoppable duo. With the incentive that whenever one of them scored a point the other would give them a kiss.

“No! Not them!!” Though Airy couldn’t stand them either.

Cinnamon thought out loud again. “Coco and Melmeltan…?” Just before she left to fetch Airy she did recall them sitting on one of those little chairs together to watch the rain.

“Not them either!!”

“...V-Vertical and B’ig..???” She hated to break it to her sister but someone needed to tell her that those books Babycorn bought (that she couldn’t even read) were just fiction with no basis in reality.

“I know those books are made up! I just like reading them!!!”

“Then what in the seven hells are you talking about?!” Cinnamon was starting to lose her patience. On the bright side of things, maybe if they stayed out here long enough arguing about this, the rain would actually stop all on its own and she could leave Airy to continue doing whatever it was she was doing.

Airy flapped her green wings in frustration. “I’m talking about Babycorn and that Butt guy!!” A few vivid angry sparkles flew out of her. “I can’t stand watching them just…be gross like that! I can’t stand anyone flirting but they’re the worst!!”

Cinnamon was at a loss for words. She was so dumbfounded that the umbrella almost slipped from her hands. Now that would have been a real disaster. “You call that flirting?!” Cinnamon gestured behind her to where the cabin was. Last she had seen Babycorn had been tied to a pole to stop her from eating the worms coming out of the dirt and Butter was sitting next to her throwing berries in her mouth.

“Babycorn and Butter couldn’t flirt their way out of a soggy cardboard box.”

An opinion that Cinnamon was always willing to share with others. Even Butter.

“I don’t care what you say! I can’t stand seeing them talk to each other!” Airy put her foot down, both literally and figuratively, “Everyyytime after Babycorn talks to him it's always ‘Do you think Butter would like this scarf?’ or ‘Isn’t Butter sooooo funny??’ I’m sick of it!!”

“D-Does she really say that?!” Cinnamon could hardly believe it. She needed to store this information to tell Butter later. No doubt he was going to flip out once she told him.

“Yes! She does! And she’s SOOOO annoying!” Airy pointed an accusatory finger at Cinnamon. “And it’s all that guy’s fault!! I don’t like him one bit! Why do you have to hang around him so much?!?!”

“You don’t mean Butter do you?”

“Who else could I mean?!”

Who could ever dislike Butter?! He was kind, loving, and always willing to help anyone with anything. If anything Cinnamon thought he was too nice! He was optimistic to a fault and would always try to look on the bright side and find the good in everyone and anything.

“He’s too much of a stinkin’ goody-two-shoes!!!!”

“Y-Yeah…??” Well she couldn’t really deny that.

“At this rate he’s going to corrupt Babycorn and then we’ll never be able to take over the whole world!”

Cinnamon knew it would eventually come to this. “Listen Airy. I know you’re going through your whole evil edgy chuuni phase but you can’t tell me that you’re so deep into it that you’re hating on love. Are you?”

“Yeah! I do! I hate it!!” Airy yelled to the heavens as loud as she could. So everyone around could hear. While Airy was much like Cinnamon-where only people with the echo could understand her, most people on this island could thankfully understand both of them.

“Uh-huh. Got it.” So Airy really didn’t hate it. She was just trying too hard. Cinnamon noticed that the rain was starting to let up. Maybe if she waited long enough it would stop altogether and she could leave Airy alone to her own devices.

“If you hate saving the world so much-why did you team up with Babycorn of all people?”

Teaming up and helping one of the Warriors of Light seemed to directly contradict with Airy’s goals. “You’ve already helped her save the world more than once. Haven’t you?” Cinnamon had no real idea what Airy’s role had been in Babycorn’s adventure but she did know that her sister had been at Babycorn’s side for a few years now.

Airy had told her herself.

“That is to say…” Airy pouted and looked away, her wings began to slow their flutter down. Cinnamon knew that she had hit one of Airy’s weak points just like she had back in Old Sharlayan when they finally reunited.

“I have to make sure someone else doesn’t take over the world before me! Y-Yeah that’s it!” It sounded like Airy was trying to convince herself more than she was trying to convince her sister. “And-! Not that it’s any of your business-but I teamed up with Babycorn because I sensed her potential!”

“The Warrior of Light thing?” Cinnamon wiggled her large sleeve around. Not that Cinnamon couldn’t sense some magic off of her but it was the same as everyone else that lived in the same mansion. There certainly was no way to tell otherwise that Babycorn was Warrior of Light material.

The girl eats mud for breakfast for goodness’ sake!

“The Starsinger thing! Ah-duh!” Airy rudely clarified.

“Oh right.”

Cinnamon didn't know that much about Babycorn’s Starsinger thing. Only that Butter was happy that Babycorn had trusted him with a secret so personal to her. Something about unlimited energy and warping reality? It sounded like a lot.

“And that’s why you decided to travel with her?” Cinnamon asked.

“That’s right! And that’s the entire reason I’m still traveling with her.” She felt the need to clarify. “As someone with no love in my heart of course I’m just using her to meet my own needs.”

“Wow. So cool Airy.” How profoundly dramatic.

A rumble from the sky interrupted Airy and Cinnamon’s conversation.

Cinnamon was worried that the rain was going to get stronger. If the wind started to pick up then her umbrella wouldn’t be enough to protect her and Airy. Just as she was about to tell her sister they needed to go, she was surprised to see her already flying next to her, all ready to go.

“Come on Cinnamon! We gotta go!” Airy was sort of pushing Cinnamon along. Trying to get her to fly back to the cabin faster.

“Woah! Hey! What’s the rush?”

Not that Cinnamon didn’t understand wanting to get out of the rain as fast as they could. Being gooey and turned into cookie mush would totally ruin this vacation.

Airy flew in front of Cinnamon and wildly waved her arms up and down. “Babycorn gets really nervous during thunderstorms! I need to go and make sure she’s okay!!” Cinnamon noticed that the haughtiness to her sister’s voice had all but disappeared.

“And because Cherry is gone she’s probably doubly scared!”

“Doubly huh?” That was a word that Cinnamon had heard Babycorn use once or twice. “Okay. Let’s get going!” She also had to make sure that Butter and Pancake were alright too.

Cinnamon and Airy carefully began their flight back to their cozy cabin.

As they flew back, Cinnamon couldn’t help herself. Even at the risk of being pushed out into the rain.

“Ha! Guess you do care about her after all!” She stuck her tongue out at her sister.

As Airy sat down on the balcony overlooking the ground, she watched as Babycorn walked out of the cabin, an umbrella in her hand. The storm had passed and now only the leftover droplets from the clouds were falling on them.

Even if it wasn’t a lot of water, neither Cinnamon nor Airy were about to risk going out. Not until the sky had all dried up.

Airy flew into the air to get a better view of what Babycorn was doing.

That’s when she noticed that someone was under the umbrella with her.

“It’s that Butter guy!?!?!” Airy was astonished, flabbergasted, some other third thing!

Babycorn was kneeling down on the ground, there was something in her hands. Airy noticed that it was a very large slug. Kinda icky if you asked her. But Butter was looking at it like it was the most interesting thing in the world.

“What are you up to…?” Was he trying to get on her good side to use her for something too?

Airy watched as Butter tucked the umbrella’s handle under his arm and hunched down to the ground beside Babycorn. He picked something up and showed it to Babycorn, it was a wriggling worm. He must have asked her if she wanted to eat it since Babycorn looked deep in thought.

Eventually Butter set the worm down and they both watched it wiggle away.

Babycorn and Butter looked at each other and laughed.

“Hmm…”

Something inside Airy was happy to see Babycorn so happy.

“You can live for now kid.” Airy sat back down and looked up at the clouds, hoping that her evil glare would be enough to drive them away. “For now.”

“Listen to me,” he said, his voice even and intense, "and listen well, because I'm only going to say this once. I desire you. I burn for you. I can't sleep at night for wanting you. Even when I didn't like you, I lusted for you. It's the most maddening, beguiling, damnable thing, but there it is.”

Quote from “The Viscount who Loved Me” book. (Anthony to Kathani)

=====

Tim needs to make a declaration like this to Lucy (or Dim to Juicy). We know that Lucy wants Tim, but we haven’t heard Tim SAY he wants her.

My Chenford wish. And mote it be.

(MAKE IT SO!)

#chenford #Jim or duicy #tim bradford #lucy chen #declaration out loud of want #i love them #tim x lucy #the rookie #season 5 is a time to be bold #out with it #communication is key #is the hiatus over yet

Everyone's talking about Ricky homewrecking this season and how EJ lost Nini to him in season one, and that is not what happened 😭. Yall nini broke up with him because he majorly overstepped several boundaries. Ricky couldn't have done that by himself

#This isn't even a defense of Ricky. It's just so funny to me #Like maybe if ejnini lasted past episode 3 then Ricky would've ended up causing them to break up bc that was his plan #But that is not what happened #And Ricky could not have pulled that off on his own. Like he's not really good at the whole homewrecking thing #ie he showed up to give her a big love declaration (which was bold and rude onside ring their relationship) but he couldn't even say Ily..#Homewrecking requires more self awareness than Ricky has atm #At best ej is gonna get paranoid again for some reason bc that wasn't resolved and maybe Gina is gonna freak out about her 1st relationship #And Ricky is gonna be smiling on the side idk #Anyway this is gonna be a mess and I'm gonna love it xoxo #hsmtmts #***considering

That's it; if The Owl House turns out to have a shitty ending, I am totally rewatching MagiRevo/TenTen Kakumei as a palate cleanser.

In order to show my support for palestine, I thought I would make a post— in typical bird nerd fashion— highlighting some information about one of the many symbols of freedom for the palestinian people: the palestine sunbird.

you’ve seen this bird everywhere lately I’m sure,

so, you may be wondering.. why is this bird so important?

In 2013, Israel campaigned to remove ‘palestine’ from the bird’s name. this failed, however, when the palestine wildlife society (PWS) petitioned to instead adopt it as palestine’s national bird as a direct defiance of the campaign.

in 2015, the palestine sunbird was officially declared the national bird of palestine.

the palestinian artist khaled jarrar designed a border control stamp featuring the sunbird with which he stamped passports as a cry for freedom.

more recently, khaled jarrar has also created these postal stamps for the same message— in defiance of israel’s efforts to erase palestine.

here you can find an incredible, short documentary detailing his work across the years to use his art as a protest against the plight of the palestinian people.

another palestinian artist, rasha eleyan, uses the sunbird in her work as a motif for the strength and boldness of palestinian women:

(source)

the palestinian poet tamim al-barghouti has tied the palestine sunbird’s beauty to resilience, in saying: “whenever you face injustice or roughness, remember to defend yourself by finding beauty… document, prove, and defend it because all beauty is resistance.”

the palestine sunbird is a symbol of hope and strength. It’s a symbol of fighting back against the odds and refusal to go quietly into the night— refusal to be erased.

continue to support palestinian artists.

continue to support palestine.

raise the voices of those who now, more than ever, need to be heard.

from the river to the sea, palestine will be free.

#free palestine #free gaza #palestine #palestine sunbird #sunbird #from the river to the sea palestine will be free #palestinian art #palestinian artists #artwork #birdblr #birdposting #important #!!!#daemnthoughts

Be Bold

“Therefore I testify and protest to you on this [our parting] day that I am clean and innocent and not responsible for the blood of any of you. For I never shrank or kept back or fell short from declaring to you the whole purpose and plan and counsel of God.” Acts 20:26-27AMPC

Smack in the face. How many people have I failed to declare “the whole purpose and plan and counsel of God” to? And you readers— have you been faithful in doing this?

In our text, Paul was speaking to the fledgling church in Ephesus. Holy Spirit told him— ‘he wasn’t returning. Life would end in Rome.’ To these people, Paul knew he’d done everything he could to bring them into God’s grace, teaching them how to walk in that grace and power.

Let me declare— This devotional subject has nothing to do with our salvation— Jesus paid for our sins and when we accepted His free gift, salvation was a done deal. What I’m addressing is the Christ’s commission to His people in Mark 16:15NLT “And then He told them, “Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone.” And again in— Matthew 28:19-20ESV “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you…”

Thank God for the cross. Under the Laws of Moses, whatever was said to be done became Law. Omitting doing the Law was a sin punishable by consequences, up to and including death. Should it not be for the cross of Jesus Christ and His blood— millions of people’s blood could be on our hands because it’s also written—“ If I say to the wicked, ‘You shall surely die,’ and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, in order to save his life, that wicked person shall die for his iniquity, but his blood I will require at your hand” Ezekiel 3:18ESV.

Often I’ve tried to present the gospel, only to be repelled. Sometimes I’ve had people talk above my words, as if I wasn’t speaking. Then I realized Jesus was correct in He saying— “Don’t waste what is holy on people who are unholy. Don’t throw your pearls to pigs! They will trample the pearls, then turn and attack you” Matthew 7:6NLT. There are people who won’t receive the gospel. Usually those who are educated, believing they know everything without need for Christ. These people deem themselves on a higher intelligence level than Believers.

Not usually so with the people whose appear as lost causes. Carefully seek for the gift of discernment through Holy Spirit— which is “…to another the ability to distinguish between spirits…” 1Corinthians 12:10ESV.

Be bold in bragging about what He’s done for you to the masses. “…they have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they loved not their lives even unto death” Revelation 12:11ESV. Some will turn away from you, true. But some will turn to you, asking, ‘will He do the same for me?’

We must never be ashamed of Jesus and what He did for us. Don’t shrink back or fail to declare the full plan of God’s gospel “…for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes…” Romans 1:16NKJV. It’s your choice. You choose.

LET’S PRAY: LORD God we pray for boldness to proclaim and teach the gospel to those we come in contact with, asking for discernment as we proclaim Your mercies to us, in the name of Jesus Christ I pray.

#Jesus Christ #Holy Spirit #word of god #God #lord of lords #it's your choice #devotional #be bold #declare #commission #teach #consequences #lost cause #educated #love #hope #faith
