Standing, Asalun, & Associates

An AOM &c. AU that nobody asked for, so I'm delivering!

This is me taking Mystery Incorporated, Dead End: Paranormal Park, Hilda, Mob Psycho 100, and let's be honest, the whole ghost segment of The Sword Interval that lives rent-free in my mind into one vibeful concept: Horatio and Marcus run a paranormal investigation business.

Due to all of their proposed names being terrible puns or just not catchy, they gave up and called it Standing & Asalun. They run it out of what is Horatio's Flowers in AOM, and they do extremely lackluster business. However, Celia thinks it's the most delightful fucking thing and inserted herself into the investigation so much that they essentially hired her. She still has a day job, like Marcus, and unlike Horatio MyOwnBoss Standing. Eventually Allison joined in, and even if they would hire him he doesn't actually want the job, so he's technically a contractor. Still, the addition of another regular meant that they finally felt like they had to change the name to Standing, Asalun, & Associates.

Season One

Season one is the alternate story to AOM and begins with things going poorly as usual - they're not actually that bad at their job, but they have a hard time finding people who actually need paranormal things investigated, or even stuff they can put on their video channel - until Sid blows into town, with his parents not far behind. Horatio is instantly convinced that something is Off. No one else agrees - obviously Sid is just having a bad time and is also sixteen years older than when they last saw him. Horatio is ready to acknowledge that he was just too hungry for a lead when Sid starts having dreams that are very clearly not normal weird but paranormal weird. On an island that seems to have nothing paranormal going on, there's nowhere they could possibly be coming from...unless Sid's recently arrived parents have something to do with it. But they're not even witches, let alone known to be capable of whatever this is. So why do they seem to make the dreams worse but their muddy message clearer? SAA - but especially Horatio and the newest associate, Sid - will stop at nothing to find out.

At least James had the wherewithal to message Clara the night before saying he wouldn't be making it into work today, something about not feeling well. And well, it was somewhat true. The sun had risen a while ago and James had yet to go to bed as he downed the last of the alcohol he had in his apartment. He was debating going out to get more or finally get some sleep when a loud knock at the door made him groan. God, he hoped it wasn't Clara. Or worse, Rusty coming out to drag him to work.

Staggering up from the dining table, James needed a moment to orient himself. Everything was spinning. As the knocking persisted he yelled out a slurred "comin" as he swayed his way to the door. Opening it James couldn't help the frown. "Oh, 'ey sis. Now's notta good time."

Charlie definitely felt more at home in her new job as a ranger, but not a day went by that she didn't feel badly about leaving so suddenly. She finally worked up the courage to say something when she saw Emma out in town. The blonde clutched her coffee in hand and took a deep breath before walking over and smiling. "Hey Emma, glad I ran into you," she laughed a bit. "I wanted to apologize for quitting so suddenly, I didn't mean to leave you hanging or anything."

This was probably a mistake, but Sean still found himself leaving the cab and walking up the long driveway to the front of the mansion. As the building loomed in front of him, all of the memories hit. Much like a ton of bricks. He tried to fully recall the last time he was here, and was glad that some of it came up pretty fuzzy.

Hell the reason why he was coming back was kind of fuzzy as well. No one contacted him, his presence wasn't requested. Something told him it was time. The results of Japan were starting to fade. He could talk again, and had somewhat of a handle on his mutation. It wasn't a full recovery, but it was enough that Sean felt a little bit like himself. And he wondered if any of that self might still be welcomed here.

There was a pause, a contemplation of actually knocking. But in a lot of ways this was still kind of his home. At least he hoped anyone there might still think so.

Sean paused after taking a few steps inside, listening for signs of life.

"Knock knock?"

WHERE: the quad, early morning following the fire. WHO: @flawlessclosure & jesse.

The false walls Jesse had built around himself had been slowly but surely crumbling all year. With Greer's disappearance, and everything that followed, he'd known it was only a matter of time. He just hadn't realized he'd be the orchestrator of his own demise, the puppet master ushering in his own personal apocalypse.

That was probably why when he accidentally shoulder checked someone as he walked by, he wasn't at all surprised to find it was likely the one person in Ogden that hated him the most. Despite himself, he laughed once, looking down at Emma with an apology ready and dying on his lips. The sound hadn't been one of humor, but of resignation. An of course. Despite it all, he was glad to see that she was alright, at least.

It was Parker on his mind, the idea that any further delay might sell him out before he had the chance to do it himself, that made him consider saying nothing at all and continue on his way. He couldn't imagine she'd want anything to do with him, anyway. "Sorry," he offered out of the corner of his mouth, his words sounding as exhausted as he felt, "wasn't looking."

“Stop pinning it on me! You started it.” Jean realized the words that left her mouth were childish, but it was too late -- although she pressed her lips together, as if it would even matter now. She sighed and ran a hand through her hair, another frustrated huff leaving her lips. “Why do we even have to fight about this?” She was tired of always being on strange terms with Emma -- and usually over a guy, no less. As much as she cared for Scott, it was absurd. Shouldn’t they have better things to do?

OC Pokemon teams tag: AOM

I'm taking an open tag from @kk7-rbs for this one! I chose these for the main AOM players based on vibes and also story potential.

Also an open tag!

Sid

He doesn't really favor any type, and that shows in his team. He evolved the Sirfetch'd from a Farfetch'd that fought him for an onion, the Goodra from a Goomy he found in the garden (his parents did NOT want him to take it inside), and the Alcremie from a Milcery he caught with the smell of his baking (it's probably a different variant than the one shown but he let it pick out its candy). The Mimikyu showed up when he was cleaning out the attic, and he feels like they have a lot in common actually. Donovan gave him a Galarian Yamask and fully believed it could never be evolved, but Sid figured out how to evolve it anyway. Emma gave him the Froslass when she got a shiny Froslass, and he had to retrain it to be less slappy and bitey.

Donovan

He loves ground and rock types more than anything but those alone are kind of a weak team, so he's diversified. He's a big fan of Pokemon that are Shaped, hence the Shelgon and Gastrodon. Unfortunately he has never met someone who was fooled by the Sudowoodo. The Mudsdale is his hard hitter, the Trevenant is his favorite, and the Sableye he picked up from a cave because it reminded him of Sid (then a small child). Through no fault of its own it got most of Donovan's care and affection (RIP Sid) and is kind of a spoiled brat.

Emma

Her team organizing principle is cuntiness. She picked Sobble as a starter years ago so she could end up with Inteleon. Pheromosa, Tsareena, and Froslass were all pretty easy choices too. She thinks the Machamp is cute and it has a great attitude (smash all opponents). It actually has not given her the most injuries - the Rapidash has, between its pointy horn and its tendency to get into her head with its psychic abilities. She doesn't super discourage this kind of behavior because any Pokemon that can knock her down can doubly do it to her challengers.

Avis

She favors ghost types (she used to have a Trevenant in her main team but she switched it out when she found out Donovan had one). She loves Rillaboom the most, though, because she's had it the longest - she raised it from a Grookey. Her default strategy is to use its size (it's 6' 11") to intimidate most challengers (including Sorian), and then switch to Dhelmise when it gets a little low on health. Anyone who knows their types will assume she has a grass-based team, at which point she can pull out Kommo-o or Grappleoct to surprise them. Gengar and Dragapult also unnerve people, which is fine by her. She hates it when people point it out but she's very kind to her Pokemon and is far more worried about how good of a trainer she is to them than how powerful they are as fighters (pretty powerful).

Sorian

He loves fairy and psychic types and they love him. Obviously the Ninjask is an exception, but he keeps it in his team just in case and because Horatio gave it to him (he still doesn't understand why Horatio thinks it's like him, but okay. It's cute). He often lets the Comfey stay out of its Pokeball and wears it as a flower crown, which Avis finds infuriating (how dare he have a cute Pokemon like that. fucking asshole). People think Avis will be irrationally pissed off by the Hatterene, since it looks kind of like a human woman, but it just looks like that - why would she be mad? Sorian's favorite Pokemon is actually the Togekiss, which likes to snuggle with him when he's alone but retreats as soon as Avis shows up. His most powerful Pokemon in battle are definitely the Claydol and Musharna.

Horatio

Horatio didn't start out trying to bridge as many types as possible, nor to have only dual-type Pokemon, but once he realized it was happening anyway he leaned into it. He started with the Galvantula, which used to ride in his pocket when it was a Joltik, and ended up with Vileplume when his Oddish would not stop accompanying him out of his florist shop. Edith gave him the Swinub he evolved into Piloswine, and Sorian gave him the Deino he evolved into Hydregion because it looked like him (it did). The Aegislash came from a Honedge that tried and failed to blend in with his gardening tools, and the Gallade - which he suspects used to belong to someone else - he found wandering in the woods when he was studying river plants. It has very little self control around people who are rude to him, and it sometimes gets switched out of his team temporarily when it's being moody.

James wandered aimlessly around town, just trying to get his bearings. If he was going to be stuck here for the foreseeable future, he figured he'd at least know where the hell everything was. He almost dropped his cigarette as he spotted a familiar profile a block down the street.

"E-emma?" he croaked, trying to call out but his voice refusing to cooperate. It couldn't be, could it? Maybe his mind was playing tricks on him. Too many times before he thought he saw his sister in New York, only for it to be someone else. He had to be sure.

Clearing his throat, he called out the name more clearly a second time, trying to ignore the small welling of hope in his chest. His last lead told James that Emma was last seen in West Virginia, so maybe...just maybe.

Calling out a third time, loud enough for his voice to echo down the otherwise quite streets, James gasped as the woman turned to face him. It was her. It was really her.

He took off in a sprint, cigarette abandoned on the sidewalk. The closer he got the more certain James was that he finally found his sister after all this time. All this time of not knowing, of worrying and being scared for the worst. Because god knows he's seen the worst day in and day out at work.

Without ceremony he threw his arms around his sister, tears threatening to fall as his throat started to close. James was overwhelmed with emotion. He wasn't alone in the world anymore.

Walden & Cissy;

Because Walden thinks both in Spanish and in English, Narcissa knows quite a bit of Spanish by proxy

Sometimes, when Cissy isn’t around to hear him think it, Walden’s fairly certain she’s the only reason he managed to turn out half so well-adjusted

Walden & Sera;

The only thing that has ever stopped Walden from missing a Fight Night and thus a chance to spar with Sera was his stay in St. Mungo’s

Sera is one of the few people he’s never gifted a flamboyantly awful bird. (He gets her weapons instead.)

Walden & Winnie;

Listen he’ll never be entirely sure Winnie isn’t actually just a dragon shapeshifted into a human for the lolz and he’s okay with this

The fact he’s allowed to hold Spawn is one of the things he’s most proud of in his life currently

Walden & Emma;

Walden has never really understood the dynamic between Alex and Emma, but it seems to work for them so he’s given up trying

He’s actually a little scared of werewolves and refuses to ever let her know

"You have barely touched your food." Mary commented, finding that she was also pushing the food absentmindedly around her own plate. Their return to London was a transition, and she was doing her best to impress. Being the oldest meant she had the responsibility to marry, but this was the last thing on her mind. @emma-lives

Emma was definitely known for being a rather no-nonsense kind of teacher. Emma worked hard on her lesson plans and making sure her students had the skills to succeed both in and out of the classroom....And she expected the same. But there was one student who it was clear had definitely put his attention elsewhere. Andrew, probably the hottest jock in her class not that she’d ever admit it outloud, has been struggling. Emma had tried everything she could, and she even assigned a fellow student to help tutor him. But nothing seemed to be working.

“Maybe this just isn’t the field for you,” Emma said with a small frown as she set her pen down in the desk in front of her. Emma was wearing a formal dress that clung to her figure and showed off her assets quite well. While Emma personally didn’t think it looked seductive, there were definitely plenty of guys in class that practically drooled at her outfits. And some girls who were definitely jealous both of Emma’s body and the way she pulled their men’s attention. Sometimes guys even made a habit of dropping stuff on purpose, and Emma picked it up for them being the nice teacher that she was. Unaware of them staring at the rising hemline of the dress or skirt that she was wearing that day.

“I mean...If you’re struggling this much right now? Things are only going to get more rough in the real world, sweetheart. Perhaps it’s time to consider other avenues?” Emma asked, her teeth sinking into a pink painted pair of lips softly.
