routine vibe check: what’s the best starter pokemon and why are you right (pictures and long paragraphs of evidence welcomed and appreciated)
Gonna get a good grade in vibe check, normal to want and inevitable to achieve because I have objectively correct Pokemon opinions and will block naysayers
OKAY LET'S GO
I decided to do, like, a top 5 list or something, because I'm bad at picking a single favourite of stuff. And then even that overwhelmed me, so I found one of those tier ranking list sites and produced this:
Tumblr media
It was done in less than a minute, so if I wanted to get really picky, I don't know if I would be fully wedded to it (not sure if maybe Sceptile should be one higher) BUT it did help to highlight the important ones.
So!
5. Bulbasaur
It's. Just. So. Nice.
Like you can find cooler, more beautiful, cuter, fancier... there's a whole bunch of ways for a Pokemon to be great. But you will never ever find a nicer Pokemon than Bulbasaur. It's so lovely. Look at it. Look at its face.
Tumblr media
I can't put it higher, because the rest of the line is fairly bland in terms of development. It's good and logical and fun, don't get me wrong, but Ivysaur and Venusaur just look like bigger versions with More Flower and Less Cute rather than creatures in their own right. To be honest, if it weren't a starter requiring a three-stage evolution, you could do away with Ivysaur. Something I don't like about a lot of lazy three-step lines is that the middle step just looks like a transitional mid phase rather than a Proper Creacher, like they were artificially inflating the Pokemon number count. Meanwhile it took us until Paldea to get a Girafarig evo that would actually make the giraffe tall. Madness.
However my first ever Pokemon was a Bulbasaur I called Daffodil, and I have traded him forward onto every single successive generation since. He is, quite literally, my First Ever Pokemon. I love him desperately. I still have him. Not many people still have their First Ever Pokemon. But I do and I love him. So, Bulbasaur gets the fifth spot.
4. Snivy
Again, a victim of the Banal Transitional Middle Evo, but both Snivy and Serperior are incredible, and as Meatloaf took such pains to tell us, two out of three ain't bad.
Tumblr media
But Snivy! It's so snooty! I was super lucky with mine, too, because I beat the 12.8% odds and got a female, and I loved her. Normally the initial baby starters are designed to be cute but Snivy has SO MUCH PERSONALITY, she's great. And the design of Serperior is utterly gorgeous. She keeps the expression, but rather than the Animal Crossing-style snooty-cute vibe of Snivy you get this thousand yard withering stare of an empress whose servant (you) has just turned up dripping mud in her throne room and asked her for money. Her green and gold colour scheme is exquisite. Her filigree design, including her high collar, give off the air of wealth and sophistication befitting her immaculate pedigree. And all this! In a simple snake. Incredible design work, 10 out of 10, no notes.
Tumblr media
Begone, you miserable peasant. Have him boiled.
3. Torchic
Now I'll be real with you, lads, but Pokemon design hit its stride with Hoenn and then got better.
It's partly a fashion thing, of course - you look at some of the Kanto designs and they are remarkably 90s, because that's when the franchise launched. Others are clearly a product of what the 1990's were capable of producing in pixels on an already over-stretched cartridge medium. Like we like to clown on Red and Green/Blue now, but my god, those game designers performed a miracle with Pokemon. Every single square inch of space was used to make that game, and complex designs weren't going to cut it.
(With that said, there is still no excuse for Dragonite.)
And then Johto came about and its Pokedex sucks ass. It's mostly new evolutions for existing Kanto stars, useless babies to inflate the dex number, or poorly thought out single-evos like the inexplicably short Girafarig and the unacceptably dreary Dunsparce (our greatest thanks to Paldea for fixing both of those).
BUT THEN CAME HOENN (trumpets intensify)
And we get habitats! Biomes! A different regional climate, gifting us a brand new area of Pokecology! And therefore a brand new flush of creativity in Pokemon design across the board; less dated, and more inclined to be unique rather than a rehash of Kantonian stuff.
Which brings me nicely to this lad:
Tumblr media
Now, I mean. Just look at him. Fucking hell. Cute starter stage, check. LOOK AT HIM FACE
AND THEN he became, at the time, a brand-new unique typing: Fire/Fighting. I realise that is now the norm for like, half of the Fire starters, but that's because of Torchic, actually. He was super popular. In fact if you ever play Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald and you do what my husband and I like to call a Mynci Dave run (use one Pokemon almost exclusively, meaning it gets all the experience points and therefore over-levels to a terrifying degree, allowing you to sweep the game; so named after the noble Primeape we first did this with, Mynci Dave), Torchic is the PERFECT Pokemon to choose, because almost everything is weak to either Fire or Fighting in that region.
Anyway, Combusken is, again, kind of mid (although props for the inverted colour scheme and the fact that it actually does look like a teenager.) But Blaziken, on the other hand... Blaziken is a six foot ninja chicken with wings for hair whose Pokedex entry describes it as able to leap tall peaks in a single bound, a feat it achieves after strengthening its legs by hoofing Geodudes down mountains like they're fucking footballs
Tumblr media
Also an impressive bulge.
My first was called Gilgamesh, and he was fucking great. For a long time, this mad lad was my actual favourite Pokemon, not just starter. Brilliant. Love him. Five stars out of three. King.
2. Fuecoco
It would probably surprise you to know I've not actually used one. I chose Sprigatito, and I do really like Meowscarada, actually. But pretty anthro cat boys have been done in Pokemon quite a bit at this point; cats, dogs and rabbits are over-represented in terms of Poke-taxa. Possibly this is another reason for a toad, a snake and a chicken being 5, 4 and 3 so far (ooh, basilisk ingredients, I've just realised.) They're new and unusual! I like an Eeveelution as much as the next person, but they're a whole family of cat-dog-rabbits, like.
However.
Nintendo has tried its hand at Pokecrocodilians three times (Feraligatr, Krookodile, Skeledirge), and they have gotten so much better at design each time that the three of them are basically a scale proxy for ongoing design improvement. Look, I've made a diagram:
Tumblr media
EXCEPT
(Strap in)
This one is that rare thing: a three step line that deserves to be a three step line. Let's talk Fuecoco first:
Tumblr media
SO CUTE. It's charming, it's charismatic, it's adorable.
It also has hints of its evolutionary end goal, but not like an undeveloped middle evo. It likes singing. The white face hints at the eventual calavera, and it looks a bit like a lil chilli pepper - a ghost pepper, probably in reference to the eventual Fire/Ghost typing. But the colours and shape right now also look a bit reminiscent of a babygro, because this thing is a cute starter. Lookit them teefs. That tuft. Its lovely smile. Beautiful.
And then, at the point you expect it to turn into just the awkward teenage version of the adult, instead we get Crocator:
Tumblr media
Oh boy. Oh there's so much to say. Okay okay:
The region it's from is based on Spain, but this thing is incorporating Hispanic elements from across the board. It's a mariachi in a sombrero, except the sombrero also looks kind of like a ring of Mexican marigolds and kind of like a Catalonian Easter cake called Mona de Pascua that has an egg (or egg-shaped confectionary) in the middle. Body shape and markings look kind of like a piñata. The white face is now on its way to a calavera, with the cheek and nostril markings more defined. And it sings, with its open mouth (also how crocodiles release heat, appropriate for a Fire type) and signified by the mariachi theme.
THAT IS A LOT.
And then it becomes Skeledirge. A Fire/Ghost crocodile.
Now the obvious design here is the calavera and the  Día de Muertos theming, which is part of it. But there are also many examples of crocodile figures in Spanish folkloric ghost stories: the Catalonian Cocollona, the Lizard of Magdalena from Jaén, or the Drac de Na Coca, or even the Cuca - that one is Portuguese, but turns up in both Brasil and the Iberian Peninsula including in parts of Spain. It's got a Gaudi vibe (like Barcelona). It's got an alebrije vibe (like Mexico).
And the bird! Nile crocs have a cleaning symbiosis with Egyptian plovers; it also sits at the tip of the snout where male gharials have a sort of bulbous bit to help them make sounds (the singing thing).
But this is what the bird does when Skeledirge uses Torch Song:
youtube
It becomes a microphone, then grows in size and attacks the opponent in Phoenix form. Phoenix: Fire/Ghost. Resurrected from the ashes.
Quite simply, your fave could never.
5. Rowlet
My god. (My god)
Tumblr media
gasp
Look at this lovely creacher. He is so round and so soft and so lovely. He looks like that baby Yoda meme. He looks like that cat that someone's landlord said they would make an exception for because he looks very polite. Look!!! At his lil bow tie!!! He is a smartly dressed young man and he is kind and he is... well, a bit vacant behind the eyes. A himbo, if you will. But he is all the better for that. What a lovely owl.
He looks a little like a barn owl, perhaps, and those were imported to Hawai'i, where Rowlet is from. But I think he looks a little like a Pueo owl, and given that he will eventually be a Ghost type, that seems right - pueos are one of the physical forms assumed by ʻaumākua in Hawai'ian culture, as I understand it.
And then, hang onto your tits, lads, because this is another banger - THE MIDDLE EVOLUTION IS ITS OWN DESIGN!!! (confetti cannons)
I said earlier that boring middle evos are like just awkward teenagers of the adults. Here, I present to you, a very deliberate Awkward Teenager, in Dartrix:
Tumblr media
IT'S A DANDY
I love him I love him I love him
He plays with his fringe and if you touch it without permission he has a tantrum. God, he's so charismatic. Also, that fringe further suggests the pueo - they have pronounced outer rims around their facial disks like that. Look at his bow tie and tail coat. So smart and handsome
This one is so good that it could be the final evo. This is actually my issue with the Delphox line - Braixen is amazing, and then it becomes the bland boredom of Delphox. Braixen should have been the final stop. Here, Dartrix is much the same - good enough to be a high-quality end goal.
Where they differ is that Decidueye is better again.
Tumblr media
IT SHOOTS ARROWS MADE OF ITS OWN QUILLS
Also, fun fact - This line is the only starter to change secondary typing. Dartrix is part Flying; but on evolving a second time into Decidueye, it switches to Grass/Ghost. In this evolution, it's definitely mostly a pueo, so the ʻaumākua reference is IN, but actually barn owls also have their associations with the dead in various cultures.
The crown of feathers around its head are also reminiscent of an ayaigasa - a hat worn by Japanese samurai archers. And yet! AND YET!
It still has its lil bow tie look. Bigger now, more of a cravat; but there it is.
A perfect Pokemon, and a perfect evolutionary line. No notes.
Anyway, thank you for this chance to waste three and a half hours writing this essay

qPhil & Other Egg Headcanons
Happy birthday original eggos 😭💚🎉
Note: Although I made these bc the og eggs are birth today, I've done at least one hc for each egg! They're a bit limited bc they're based off what I've seen through 3 POVs + osmosis through liveblog, but I included them all nonetheless. :D
qPhil headcanons masterlist
He thinks Leo has so much fucking swag. How does a literal egg look so fucking cool like at all times. How does she do it.
Secretly admires the shit out of Dapper. He's fucking brilliant. Hilariously unhinged. Insanely devoted to his collection habits. Adorably takes after Bad in looks and silliness. He's just such a badass little guy.
Pomme his fucking beloved. Brilliant just like her siblings, insanely perceptive, tough as nails yet still soft as flower pedals. He sees huge survivalist potential in her. He wishes she could shed some of the stress she's always seems to be under. He relates to her a bit too much sometimes. He hopes that poor girl gets a break.
He's absolutely gutted he didn't get to know Trump like at all. He saw little to nothing of him. He hopes he's at peace with Maxo.
GOD he wish he got more time with Flippa. She took him out like it was nothing. He would've loved training her alongside her parents. He bets she would've been an awesome pvper one day.
He wishes he could've seen more of Tilin. He more familiar with her than he was Trump but still not enough.
Richarlyson makes it so hard not to pick "favorite eggs" besides his own. Richas is always on some wild ass shit, Phil fucking loves it. That kid's just high on life at like all times. Unreasonably funny on top of it all. God does Phil worry about him though, he's gotten way too into risking his life for the lulz.
Ramon practically feels like a third child to him (sometimes). Much like Dapper, he loves how brilliant he is and how cracked at his craft he is.
Bobby's death absolutely devastated him. He loved that little shit. And he loved how happy he made Roier and Jaiden. Seeing how severely his death broke them made his heart ache. He had nightmares about going through the same thing.
He's DETERMINED to get to know Chunsik further. Timezones are a bitch though. :( But he will be damned if something happens before he can get more familiar.
Empanada is unreasonably cute to him, and he loves seeing her take more and more after Bagi every time he sees her once more. He absolutely loves how close she and all her moms are. He genuinely fears the Pancake Mafia tbh, and he's convinced Empanada is the head.
He adores Sunny. She knows what she wants. They're not afraid to speak their mind as long as they're comfortable. She's silly and playful and sweet. Yet they still have this small, but palpable cool edge to them. Truly one spunky little girl. 😎
Phil is like 90% sure Pepito is just always going thru it, but has a sneaking suspicion that's just how Pepito seems at first glance, and maybe thats just what Pepito WANTS people to think. Either way, Pepito is just such a Creacher and Phil loves it. An absolutely loveable little guy.
He on/off considers commissioning Ramon or Dapper to make bombs to go fuck up a Fed building. He'd let them join him tbh.
He's so insanely afraid of accidentally hurting the eggs, but he'd love to spar with them and teach them more pvp skills so they'd be even better at defending themselves. He's only comfortable doing so with his own eggs.
God, he wants more times where ALL the eggs are together. He loves watching them interact, he loves their dynamics with each other and the chaos that unfolds when they're all in one place.
Phil: I don't want to build things bc technically that's doing the Feds a favor by making the island cooler. So fuck them. // Also Phil: *would build an entire city for these goddamn eggs if it meant they were safe and happy*

Hey, Newspring! Welcome to the world of TUMBLERMON.
My name is Tseed, Professor Tseed if you may. (You should)
Tumblr media
I study this Tumbrymon creatures as my proffesion and the culture each has been adapted to in this ever-changing nowadays place on the Tumbler Region.
Well now, today must be a great day for you as you're getting your first ever Tumblymon partner. Me myself am very honored to be the one to bestow your newfound bestie.
Here, give them a quick looksie before you pick yours!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Reactslug, The Power Slug pokemon. A little slow but it sure do react like a brick. Its said this thing drags around a little sorta power generator for plants... (some sorta nuclear photosynthesis battery for nearby plants that makes plants jolly and happy of sorts I guess... anyhoo-) It likes to react to the flowers bloom and cherish on its surroundings thanks to this effect it possesses over them. A pretty healthy symbiotic relationship I'd say.
Tumblr media
Hellkitty, the Little Kittycat pokemon. A very energetic and caring partner. This cat-bunny-creacher likes sharing berries and showing affection towards other of its species. The happier it feels, the taller its ear flames spark. It also says here that it comes from a region where all critters are friends and love each other and help themselves heal from any ailments, supposedly. Huh. Cute!
Tumblr media
Flashclub, the Social Penguin Pokemon. Very sociable and friendly little skrunklo. (Who wrote this...?) Their flashy little natural habitat disappeared one day, they all now live making little clubs amongst themselves like tiny little members on a society! Neat, I guess! It likes dancing and has a few entertaining activities to do like clothing and cooking pizza? (Play cards, pirates, puzzles...? Did a Flashclub wrote this or what?) Sure why not. Let's not trust all we read and just say the like waddling around in groups, how about that?
Tumblr media
THEN SO.
Time to get picky, which of these will be YOURS one true partner-
(as in pet friend- you know what I mean)

me on my FUCKIN way to enable more irisposting | what food wld be an acquired taste for they! if they had a perfume merch released, what wld its scent be? are they a sweet or savoury person? what's their go-to food order when they dont wanna think too hard abt it? does iris know i want 2 put them in a snow globe and shake them around like the yipee creacher (also i realise half of this is abt food imsosorry
NNNNONONONO DONT APOLOGIZE BUT ALSO WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME !!!! ouh.... iris is Me in the damn flesh so i'll answer these one by one
Acquired taste - im not sure abt this one actually 🤔 need to either let it simmer a bit more or let it come to me in a sudden
Perfume - oh it'd definitely be an ocean-y scent but with a mix of flowers and it'd be the kind of fragrance that isnt very... intense at all? i dont know if im making sense here
Sweet or savoury? savory for the win
Go-to food? It depends because for me my go-to food varies a lot but you can't really go wrong with instant noodles can you (jack often pesters them about this he says it's not good for their health if they eat too much of it) (he offers to bring them stuff instead sometimes)
snow globe shakey - no absolutely notnplease dont shake the creacher (me

oh shit the new episode! behold my insanity ramblings (swear + spoiler warning)
so first off obviously the big thing in this episode is that blue kicked that illusioner's ass and i am so happy about it, them and the evokers are such assholes and just. fuck yeah little man
ENCHANTMENT FUCK YEA BOIIIIIII WAY TO INTRODUCE A FEATURE
i swear to god blue has villagerspeak
friend in a discord server noted that yellow seemed to have an easier time with his own staff than mango's..frankly ive forgotten everything about the previous episodes and have no idea whats going on but sure they're togetherish now so 👍
like him or not, mango (canonically named king now, ugh, but also imagine your name being king LMFAO) (watch his birthname be fuckin Chad or something) (i swear to god im gonna find mango's parents and punch them in the face and give them flowers and leave) is kind of a fucking genius for coming up with the whole weapons made of blocks thing, and an absolute dumbass for fuckin killing his un-titan ravager with it like 💀💀💀💀
THE ANTI MOBS! I love their designs they're very cool but HOT DAMN mango is an emo bitch for making them all black kdsnfnskjd anyway do u think they could be friends with the og mobs if they had lasted.. enemies to rivals to friends to... lovers? 😳
merged creative blocks i guess
and finally beetles epic prediction time. so throughout these recent episodes the main five have been going around meeting Creachers and then proceeding to befriend these creachers and taking them to the fight. excluding red's case where there were Many, these creachers have all been Big. so consider these mobs showing up:
-ender dragon/ender dragonet (WE WOULD GET TO SEE IT ALL GROWN UP... IT WOULD BE SO CUTE...)
-elder guardian
-wither
-spider king
-all the other gnarly beasts we've met throughout the series. even the evil ones! could you imagine a king vs killer bunny showdown? just shows up like "if i can't cave this orange one's skull in, no one can"? what about the drowned pirates? ALEXCRAFTER??

Okay. So this is like, the funniest prompt that I found, wrote a bit for, and forgot about. I wrote it for a different fandom, and then thought "Organization XIII would be funny for this..." Org. XIII is turned into children and now the Reader has to (make sure they don't die) take care of them. Ages like... 4-9 because that's when children are the funniest. Do what you will with it
ngl im a sucker for old cliche prompts like these, every fandom has at least an au for this specific setting or some kindergarden au lolol
anyway here’s some HCs as to how they’d act and stuff !
Xemnas :
One of the oldest kids, but you don’t really know what to make of him. You were expecting Xemnas to still lead the rest, scare them into submission with a simple glare or something - turns out he’s rather timid. Barely speaks, you get the feeling he’s ignoring you on purpose, just makes a lot of faces and noises to indicate what he’s feeling. 
Somewhat clingy too, but unlike Demyx and Xigbar who want to get your attention through any means possible, Xemnas just grabs onto the hem of your shirt and follows you everywhere in silence. Doesn’t cause much trouble, but he doesn’t help you keep the others in check either, a true neutral I guess. 
Sometimes, he will just disappear and show up whenever you least expect him. Loves to climb and sit on tall places. Spaces out a lot. Compared to the rest, you can probably leave him to his own devices, as long as he’s not left alone with Xigbar or Larxene. 
Xigbar :
Actually the oldest, but pretty annoying and high maintenance. If he got on your nerves as his regular self, then you’re in for a fucking ride - this Xigbar is here to cause problems on purpose. He likes to talk, a lot. And it’s sucks because it’s usually endless and mindless chatter or pointing out everything that he sees. 
If he starts to get bored, he’ll scurry off to bother someone else, but it usually ends with someone crying or hurt. Don’t even bother keeping him on a leash, the bastard is too smart to be contained. 
Xigbar is one of those kids that can be extremely useful if you get him on your side, as he has no problem snitching and ratting out the others. The best way to keep him from losing his other eye or gouging out someone else’s is to bribe or trick him into helping you (just know that he can also be bribed by the other kids, Xigbar WILL betray you). 
Xaldin :
You expected Zexion to be the loner type, but turns out it’s Xaldin - he’ll always be on his own or avoiding the others, usually around the kitchen since you’ve banned everyone from going in there until they return to normal (not that they listen to you, but oh well). 
Xaldin is pretty much like those kids who hate being treated like kids and who pretend to be above the rest. While he might seem calm, it’s really easy to get him riled up, a simple “I bet you can’t do this or that” and he’s off to prove himself. 
Oddly enough, he gets jealous easily - if you give Roxas a cookie or whatever for behaving, then you GOTTA give Xaldin one too or else he’ll throw a fit. The best thing you can do with him is be honest and confess that you need him to chill the fuck out and Not Die :tm: while you take care of the others, he’ll feel all grown up because you told him the truth and will calmly stay in his room. 
Vexen :
One of the oldest kids, the stereotypical kid who only has ONE interest and won’t shut the fuck up about it, which is cute but not everyone has the patience to sit through a 6 hour talk about dinosaurs. You never expected this baby Vexen to be so into dinosaurs out of all things. Of course, just because he only talks about them, doesn’t mean he’s not curious about all that shiny lab equipment. 
You can’t keep him distracted with dinosaur books all day, he still has the heart and mind of a scientist ! Because he’s a very obvious nerd, he’s the target for a lot of members in the organization, namely Larxene - and when Vexen gets flustered or frustrated, he freezes up. Literally. He WILL freeze the entire room too.
Your best bet is to pair him up with Zexion or Xion, since they’ll gladly sit down to listen and learn. The three will gladly stay locked up in the library learning and reading. You just gotta hope Vexen doesn’t instantly crush Zexion and Xion’s dreams by ruining their fairytales with facts and logic.
Lexaeus : 
Also one of the older kids and the tallest too. This Lexaeus is just as stoic and intimidating as the original, but apparently he’s also very sensitive. Everytime he speaks to you it sounds like he might be about to cry. But he looks fine ? So you really don’t know what to do about him. 
Either way, Lexaeus is also very helpful and responsible, so you can trust him to watch over the rowdy kids and keep them relatively safe, just try not to pair him with the suuuper loud ones. 
Probably the type to take the blame and responsibility for any pranks gone wrong under his watch, even if you fully know there’s no way he’s responsible. Lexaeus is the epitome of “I just want everyone to get along”. Somehow, he’s very gentle with the others (as gentle as one can be when straight up dragging Xigbar out of the ventilation system) but he’ll break any toys and other items given to him.
Zexion :
Zexion is very very small, so you can probably understand the stress he’s going through, surrounded by these animals. Like Xemnas and Demyx, he’d be pretty clingy but he wouldn’t be able to follow you around or cling to you with all the others pushing and fighting around. 
So you can either just carry him on your shoulders or leave him with Lexaeus or Vexen as mentioned before. If not, Zexion will wander and either fall asleep in the Grey Area or find the library on his own. 
Not a problematic child, really. Zexion lacks the energy and the feralness to join any shenanigans - he's also smart enough to know that he’ll be better off listening to you and staying clear out of safety hazards. Though there’s always the chance of other members taking advantage of Zexion’s naive and curious nature.
Saix :
You were expecting him to be a tiny version of his regular self, bitter and strict. Surprisingly, he’s way more fun as a kid, glued to Axel by the hip too. They’re the duo you should look out for - Axel is the one who gets them in trouble and Saix is the one who makes sure you never notice they were behind it all. 
The one with a TERRIBLE temper right after waking up. Saix won’t hesitate to bite and claw anyone who tries to wake him up, even Axel knows better than to try. If it’s nap time, let him go, don’t even try to stop him. Don’t let anyone else near him.
Other than that ? A very nice kid in general, he feels a sense of responsibility when it comes to the younger members, so he’ll be the one to keep Axel in check whenever Zexion, Roxas or Xion are around. As for the older ones ? They’re on their own.  
Axel :
Axel is the first one to say “fuck” and it spreads like wildfire. So if you start hearing a bunch of kids swear at the top of their lungs, you know who caused it. You’ll also know because you’ll find him laughing and wheezing on the ground. 
Somewhat naive, if you tell him he can’t say “invertebrae” because it’s a swear world, he’ll believe you. But SURPRISINGLY he’s very aware of how dangerous his fire powers are - like, Axel wants to cause trouble on purpose, but he doesn’t really want anything to escalate and get anyone actually hurt. Unless it’s Vexen. If it’s Vexen, then it’s fine by him. 
You might hear “Y/N, LOOK” before seeing Axel in the kitchen casting fucking Firaga on a bag of Totinos or something. He and Demyx somehow keep getting targeted by the Dusks, who love to play pranks on them. 
Demyx :
Most likely to eat food off the ground, or anything shiny and colorful, really. He has the exact same vibes as the little brother who likes to follow people he thinks are cool to try and impress them, just to be considered a cool kid too. 
Demyx is very clingy but also a sneaky kid, he can easily cry his heart out so you’ll pay attention and protect him from people he’s pissed off. This is literally why most of the kids don’t like to be around him, cause he’s THAT kid who will ruin everyone’s funs by calling the responsible adult if he gets upset.
Instead of being musically inclined, Demyx just makes a lot of noise - constant loud humming, blowing raspberries, stomping his feet or tapping/hitting things, repeating funny noises or phrases he picks up. Probably has an old ass iPod or an MP3 you can distract him with.
Luxord :
DO YOU KNOW THOSE LITTLE KIDS WHO ARE SMARTASSES ? The ones who act like they know the mysteries of the world and give you a look of superiority because you clearly don’t know what tubby custard really is ? Yeah, that’s Luxord.
Full of fun facts that he LOVES to brag about, but most of them are fake and he’s none the wiser. You cannot correct him either because it’ll be like telling an 8 year old that Santa isn’t real. Thankfully, you don’t HAVE to correct him because that’s what Xaldin is for. 
Most likely to steal Xigbar’s eyepatch for himself and somehow convince everyone else that it was HIS eyepatch in the first place. How ? We don’t know, we just don’t know. Also Luxord might just steal little trinkets from everyone and stash them under his bed like the little creacher he is. If you can’t find your keys, you know who’s got em.
Marluxia :
A natural big brother figure. Very understanding too, even if you’ve heard from Larxene that he’s tired of everyone pulling his hair and that he might shave it all off just so they all stop. Yeah, there’s some lingering resentment in there. He’s 50/50 on being a little bastard and an angel.
Marluxia volunteers to help you take care of the other kids, mostly because he likes bossing others around and because he also likes reading books to Zexion and Xion so they fall asleep. 
LOVES to leave trails of petals and flowers wherever he goes, but REFUSES to clean up. Always seen with Larxene - Marluxia is also lowkey competitive so he sees the Axel + Saix duo as rivals. In what, exactly ? Who knows. VERY picky with food too. Actually, just very picky and petty in general.
Larxene :
The one kid who develops a personal vendetta against you from day 1. Larxene DESPISES being told what to do, so if you’re constantly telling her not to do this, to do that and whatever, she will make your life a living hell and do the opposite out of spite. 
You didn’t hear this from me, but Larxene is GENUINELY upset that she keeps accidentally zapping people whenever she plays with them. It’s really hard for her to apologize too, so you’ll have to step in a lot to de-escalate the situation.
Larxene sticks forks in outlets JUST to scare others, since she cannot get hurt at all by electricity. She just seems to enjoy making others afraid.
Roxas :
One of the youngest, Roxas doesn’t KNOW what “using your indoor voice” means, he’s either DEAD quiet or SCREAMING about how he’d like to have ice cream as a treat, please and thank you. It’s really fucking funny to see honestly. Just make sure he doesn’t sneak up on you and scare you shitless.
The type who gets dragged into shenanigans rather than cause them - he’s a very neutral and calm kid otherwise. The worst thing he can do is just steal everyone’s dessert or something because of that intense sweet tooth he’s got.
A lot of the older kids LOVE trying to get him and Xion to laugh, because Roxas has this permanent poker face AND because they both have really funny snort giggle laughs. 
Xion : 
Also one of the youngest, very sweet, patient and polite ! Xion also tends to be very clingy, always needing to hold hands with someone whenever she walks around Castle Oblivion. No one has the heart to tell her no, either.
Can get VERY VERY irritating and angry when someone tries to make fun of her or Roxas. Like a little hurricane of puppies - Xion won’t stop pestering all the meanies until she’s received a proper apology. If she somehow ends up hurting someone, she’ll insist on making up too.
Xion also tends to copy people she likes, similar to Demyx. You might catch her imitating your movements or way of speaking, or even copying the Dusks’ movements - but just make sure she doesn’t see you, Xion will explode out of embarrassment.

i saw this OC question meme on twitter i wanted to do for acorn, but i don’t know if anyone there cares about him so i think i’ll just do it here instead (and without needing to jump through the likes-hoop)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
1. What's their favourite beverage - alcoholic and/or non-alcoholic? He's not particularly picky when it comes to drinks - he'll try most everything, and some things he'll like more than others, but he doesn't have any favourites. He doesn't like alcohol, though, not even the smell and generally would rather not be around it.
2. What's their favourite flavour? (spicy, sweet, sour, etc.) He likes savory foods the best, but likes sweet foods as well. He doesn't dislike spicy foods, he just can't really handle them, and he's not sure how to feel about sour things.
3. What's their favourite food? He likes warm, savory foods the most, as well as baked goods.
4. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert, snacks - which do they look forward to the most? ALL OF THEM. Please feed him
5. Do they have a food or flavour they absolutely hate? I don't think so? If he were to run into a taste that would remind him of his time as a slave, then that.
6. Can they tolerate spicy food? Not really, though he still tries! The food he was fed as a slave was plain, flavorless slop, so his mouth isn't used to spicy stuff.
7. What is their favourite animal? He likes just about all animals, though he's particularly fond of squirrels, foxes and birds.
8. What do they wear to bed? The same thing he always wears.
9. What position do they like to sleep in? Curled up into a fetal position. It not only helps him keep warm, but also makes him feel safer.
10. Are they a morning person or a night owl? A bit more of a morning person, mainly because since he can't see in the dark, there's very little he can do besides going to sleep once night falls.
11. Are they a heavy sleeper or do they wake up easily? Mostly a light sleeper, but when he feels REALLY safe and REALLY comfortable he'll sleep like the dead.
12. It's a rainy day, what will they do cooped up inside all day? While living in the forest, not much, just waiting for the rain to pass.
13. Do they have a favourite scent or smell? He likes the smells of nature, and the smell of food.
14. What do they smell like? Do they wear perfume or cologne? He doesn't wear any perfume or cologne, I would imagine he smells mostly like moss and soil.
15. Baths or showers? Baths I guess?
16. How good are they at cooking? He's never tried, so currently Very Bad.
17. What's their favourite time of the year and why? He likes spring and summer the most, because it's warm and bright and finding food is easy. He also likes all the animal babies that pop up during the spring and early summer.
18. Do they have a favourite holiday? He doesn't know of any holidays.
19. Do they prefer buying or receiving gifts? He prefers giving, though the gifts he can give aren't much (hope you like nuts or berries). He has conflicting feelings about receiving gifts.
20. How tall are they, and how do they feel about their height? Very short. Among monsters he doesn't really mind, because monsters come in wildly varying heights and sizes, but with humans he feels intimidated.
21. Can they play any instruments? Nope, he's never had a chance to try. Ren made him a little wooden flute/whistle, but there aren't a lot of melodies one can play with that.
22. Do they have a nice singing voice? He's never tried.
23. Do they talk to themselves? Nope.
24. Do they enjoy music? What kind? Sure. He's not picky.
25. Do they make friends easily? Not really, he's very shy and reserved towards strangers.
26. Surprise birthday party! How do they react? Ignoring the fact that no one - not even him - knows his birthday, he would be startled, confused, and then would eventually probably just cry from the fact that someone cared enough to arrange a party for him. If it was a big party, he might get overwhelmed at some point, but he would still appreciate the party a lot.
27. What is their favourite flower, if they have one? Legit no idea lol. Some kind of wild flower probably.
28. How does your character feel about wearing jewelry? He doesn't like it.
29. If they wear jewelry, what's their favourite piece? While he doesn't like jewelry in general, if someone he cared about a lot gave or made him something, he would cherish it and wear it. Something simple and easy to wear that doesn't get in the way would be ideal.
30. Fashion forward or fashion disaster? Probably a fashion disaster in some people's opinion, but honestly he doesn't stand out too much.
31. What kind of underwear does your character wear? He doesn't.
32. Do they wear makeup? What kind? Nope.
33. Do they paint their nails? Nope (He's a skeleton so technically speaking he doesn't even have nails)
34. Are they quick to get haircuts or do they often let it grow out? He doesn't have hair.
35. Do they know how to whistle? Can skeletons whistle? If so, then maybe? Maybe he would see travelers whistling and would try to mimic them, eventually learning? Or maybe Ren could teach him?
36. Or how to braid hair? Nope.
37. Are they scared of anything in nature - bugs, snakes, lightning, being on the water, etc? Not unreasonably so. He isn't really scared of any animals, mainly because he's a skeleton so they aren't really interested in him, but also because he's so fast and nimble that he can easily get away from anything that might pose a danger to him. Lightning is pretty scary to him because it's loud and he's seen it strike trees and such.
38. Have they ever though they were about to die? Many times.
39. How do they react to getting sick? He retreats to a solitary place where he feels safe and waits for it to pass. There's not much else he can do.
40. Are they afraid of blood? Nope.
41. How do they earn money? He doesn't.
42. Are they satisfied with their occupation or long to do something else? He doesn't have an occupation, he's just a litle creacher
43. How creative are they? He hasn't really had the opportunity to be creative, so no idea.
44. Do they know how to draw? How skilled are they? He's never tried, so he's probably not very good.
45. What do they carry around with them during the day (ie. in their pockets, a bag, a purse...) Not much: a small bone knife he found, and often some nuts and berries. After Ren makes him a flute/whistle, that as well.
46. Do they have a sweet tooth? He likes sweets about as much as he likes all food (which is to say a lot).
47. Haute cuisine or cheap eats? Cheap eats, one hundred percent. He doesn't care what the food looks like, as long as it's good.
48. Do they know how to swim? If skeletons in general can swim, he probably can somewhat keep himself afloat for a period, though it might not count as "swimming".
49. Do they have any scars? How did they get them? Yes, many, from his time as a slave.
50. What kind of handwriting do they have? Neat, messy, cursive... He can't write.

Okay time for the break down of this pic I drew Because I put a good bit of effort into it and I’m really happy about that ya know?
This is gonna get long and ramblely so the whole thing is under the cut alright?
Alright first of all this picture has two halfs of it, the Pogtopia Era and the implied to be Retirement era Techno that doesn’t make sense timeline wise but Shhhhh. just embrace the Arctic Empire Techno
Keep in mind I’m using the bottom version of the pictures which have no lighting or shadows, I’ll be going over the lighting choices (Whether it be a glow of the giant spot like lighting) at after everything else.
I’m going to start with the Pogtopia bit first! ^u^
Tumblr media
The biggest thing of course is Vilbur’s shadow, his glasses all cracked. Something, Something, Symbolism. But in reality I did that because I thought it look cool.
I gave Tommy little devil horns in a tail because it was a neat design I saw around somewhere and really enjoyed it. He’s just a little crime creacher
Another thing about Tommy is his bandana. I love the ever so popular headcanon and included it as well but then wanted to use more green in the picture and so! Green nose bandage!.
I had a hard time deciding whether to go long sleeve like his skin or short sleeve like his youtooz and what not, So I chose both. I also had a little L’manburg flag stiched in. I have a headcanon that Tommy is a good cloths mender but we can pretend that he stitched that in, Or that Wilbur stitched it in, which is why the stiches are armature or if you like the Tommy Mender headcanon, have him learn the skills later on.
I am an obvious fan of SADist so of course I put my own spin on the SBI braids and here’s tommy with basically a small padwan braid XD. Three beads for the three other members. Green for Philza, Orange for Wilbur, and Red for Techno!
Speaking of Techno let’s talk Netherite items. The Blade here has a Netherite helmet on which I used to adapt the popular pig skull/mask design choice for more human looking Techno’s to my more pig Techno. It whitens out his eyes because comic book logic, I guess.
Tommy’s Sword is suppose to be hand made, hence the off center blade, the sporadic bandage/tape, the Netherite plating not covering everywhere showing the weapon’s diamond roots
Onto the Second Part
Tumblr media
So okay first things first, They got older. Tommy’s now at least like two or three years older I think??? Around 18ish????? So of course trimmed the baby fat and longer’ed the face, horns, and height.
the Crown change.
So you know how I said the time line is wonky if you break it apart, uhhhhh yeah I don’t think this part will pass the timeline inspection.
So I headcanon that Techno lost his crown when the anvil fell, so he had to build a new one, also that the anvil left him a scar despite the totem of undying doing it’s job. I only highlighted with portions of the scar because I imagine there was a set of scars there before the anvil thus making them deeper than the lighter scars the TOU left when it stitched Techno back to life.
The blue flowers and vines around his crown are Lapis Dye blue. It’s some of Ghostbur’s Blue! I imagine that just like armor “Blue” can customize itself to it’s use’s needs/want’s.
I do not remember the fic but there’s this really cool fanfic that has Techno have magically enchanted piercings to help hold his mask on. Only he can removed the mask with his hand. That is the only way it comes off. It was a really cool idea so here’s him with to Netherite piercings around his hairline/above his eyebrows
Technoglasses for reading and retirement usages
The Bedrock is on a Netherite key chain looking thing because that’s funny to me. Also awkward white glove and figuring out how to put them on hooved hands lead me to this fingerless glove design.
Techno’s hair is inspired by @sigerson6534​′s amazing Viking Hair cut Techno. Give them all the love. I tried my hand at it and holy is it hard. I tried it in my other Techno doodle as well but forgot who’s idea was it and where the art was. Not my greatest moment there. How did Sigerson got the hair it to look that good anyways? That’s some true skill. Techno’s hair is sort of more longer and a bit more time can be put into it rather than the presumably faster style of younger Technobraid. He also is on his way of looking like a goat with that face fur XD.
Tommy’s eyes are darker bags underneath, his body more lanky and almost unnaturally thin in certain area’s.  Skin tanned skin from being more out in the sun as well. And explosion scars that lines the back and side of his neck... Life was a harsh and it’s players at times gave out only abuse that took and took with nothing to give.
His hair grown out, due to refusal to put anything sharp near his neck. His beads where taken from him by someone not of the SBI dynamic. Also his hair has grown more gold due to golden apple consumption.
Tumblr media
Tommy’s youthful bright eyes were stolen and haunted. Meanwhile Techno’s are a blue with a red ring, though if I were to go back to it I would open his other eye and have one eye be red and the other blue. (XD This looks ridiculous up close ajskdhjakshdkjahdkas) 
Tumblr media
I like the idea of Techno giving Tommy his old cloak but also... Purple allium flower. Of course maybe my boy learned embroidery and did this to spite/steal more of Techno’s stuff. Like how the Racooninit here is showing off this gold apple that there’s only like a ten percent chance that he actually made it.
On his cuffs are the disks Pigstep and Chirp. Chirp because it represents hope to Tommy if I remember correctly and Pigstep because of Power also, Pigstep. The cuffs have four colored dots. Orange for Wil, Green for Phil, Pink for Techno, and Red for him. 
His color included here but not in his younger self’s bead braid hairband thing. Read into that how you please
Tumblr media
Okay so Tommy with Wilbur’s Pogtopia jacket is a look but also ignnore’s Niki’s actual canon ownership and that’s not funky fresh. So here’s an alternative; Tommy with Wilbur’s L’manberg uniform. This would after all be his happiest memories of Wilbur I like to think. So of course this jacket is a fusion of the ms skin’s coat and the actual coat CC!Wilbur wore. Thus the red lining. 
Now I notice on the skin their was some white lining on the tailcoat. I could’ve of done the sensible thing and assume his shirt had a tailcoat or something, but instead I was like “The drama theater kid get’s fancy frills”. The frills by them self took around two hours to do.
Tommy also get’s a blue lapis friendship stone with Techno having a tiny earring to match. Remember when I said in the Og post I was ignoring canon... Yeah. (Techno made a similar tiny matching earring for but Tommy’s refusal to let anything sharp near his face to pierce his ear)
The compass that hang’s off his belt is indeed Thee Your Tubbo compass!
Speaking of his belt: It’s a turtle shell to match his helmet!
The only reason why Phil and Techno wrangled him into the Arctic coat is because he was really cold, had no winter wear while in a tundra, and Philza Minecraft is a lot more passive aggressively petty than many realize.
Tumblr media
If you see the Homestuck reference you get a cookie because Blood For The Blood God can be a funny joke too.
The pattern on the blue part(?) of his cloak is one I got/was inspired by a picture depicting ya boy Theseus  And then I added some fancy gold and Red&Emerald gems for funsies.
He got’s a fuchsia coat as well to show an semi change of ways but not fully. Be warned; If you attack him, he will pay tenfold.
Arctic Empire Belt Buckle.  Arctic Empire Belt Buckle.  Arctic Empire Belt Buckle.  Arctic Empire Belt Buckle.  Arctic Empire Belt Buckle.  Arctic Empire Belt Buckle.  Arctic Empire Belt Buckle.  Arctic Empire Belt Buckle-
His cuffs have Emeralds Dimonds and Gold on them with Emerald stars. I guess after getting an earring for Tommy my man had a moment where he was like “But what if Philza thinks I don’t care about him as much any more” or something an proceeded to grab his old Arctic Uniform and Beddaazle the heck out of it with Philza Minecraft Emerald Green. 
His belt are the colors of the Arctic Empire flag keeping in theme with the ide that he just pulled out his old uniform and gave it what little fixes it needed.
Is that a big belt? A strange waist wrap. A stylish back brace? A corset? You decide.
His tail curls! There is no real purpose of pointing this out. I just think it’s Neat!
Now time to wrap it up with the glowy stuff!
Tumblr media
Speedrun time!
We got Wilbur’s lighter flame. The majority of jewels glow(For magical reasons). Pogtopia Techno’s Mask-eye’s and older Tommy’s eyes(For magical and supernatural reasons) . The compass pointer(For magical reasons) , and both Tommy’s horns and tails. 
And last but not least the gapple, which of course glows for magical reasons but it glows yellow and not purple because that would mean it’s a godapple!
Tommy with chests full of godapple’s is a powerful image tbh.
Anyway, congratulations on making it to the end of my rambling! 
Thank You So Much For Reading! ^u^

reply roundup!
I still see everyone’s comments and tags, but I’m going to reduce these to ones that I have something to say about to make them more manageable for me and for you! <3
thank you to all the folks that leave compliments in the comics, even though I’m not referring to each of you individually for now.
