i have a doujin script i've shared around a few discord groups but not publicly, and though i doubt i'll have the spoons to ever draw the whole thing out i thought drawing out the cast list would be fun at least~
first time drawing a lot of these characters actually ( ̄▽ ̄)"

re: volo appearing in every legends game regardless of in-game importance can go a couple different directions
hitchhikers guide to legends you shouldn't know - weird traveler man who knows just a bit too much about local regional legends and is a little too coy yet never strays far from the side lines
dramatic heros tale cracks the egg - in each game he gradually becomes both more heroic, aiding the protag overtime, and softens, his final appearance ending with him commenting on changing his name to signify him changing his ways - why 'cynthia' has a nice ring doesnt it?
always the bridesmaid never the bride - he keeps trying to team up with legendary pokemon all across the world - with varying levels of villiany involved - and almost succeeds UNTIL SOME PIMPLY FACE PRETEEN FUCKING KICKS HIS ASS AND BEFRIENDS LOCAL GOD IN 3 MINUTES FLAT. EVERY GODDAMN TIME.
cant an immortal man get a break - hes kind of over all that legands drama and keeps hoping to find a nice peaceful retirement home.... but the fucking gods cant chill out for five damn minutes and of course some idiot local has to piss them off - oh fuck him another teen girl just fell out of the sky-

Do you think Cynthia has any thoughts about the whole Warden Ingo thing?
She studies Pokemon mythology so SURELY the whole warden thing must be entwined into her area of fascination, right?
I think she sensed Fossil Ingo and Fossil Sneasler being resurrected Immediely began racing to their location. No garchomp flight just sprinting.
Cynthia spends a solid 7 hours interrogating Ingo about everything relating to Hisui while he tries to figure out if he should be worried about her or not

The Voloverse
Posting this mainly so I can link back to it as a footnote whenever I post mr. Man anywhere. Basically in my headcanons and aus Cynthia is an eggy egg who posts a lot of dysphoric cringe in the form of hurting people: she's so disconnected from herself and her body and her life that she can't quite comprehend why people care about anything at all, which leaves her just bulldozing over a lot of feelings because it doesn't seem like a big deal to her.
She lovebombs people then freaks out about it and goes completely ghost, youtube pranks Steven Stone by leaning into the gossip and telling the presses she's pregnant with his spawn despite him telling her It's Not Funny Fucking Stop, etc. etc. That sorta thing.
Eventually she cracks the code, he/hims into a MAN, and remains a bit weird and mentally ill but goes from being very shielded behind masks and facades into being turbo-earnest and sincere.
When PLA dropped with a canon Manthia in the form of Volo I went "Dang this kinda awkward" and made it even more awkward by leaning into it. Cynthia figures out she needs to detit become man due to a portrait of Volo she comes across while doing some ancestry research, lowkey steals his entire identity, and picks the name Cievolo for himself :) (Cielo + Volo)
So whenever I mention Cievolo it's a transsexualized genderbendered Cynthia because I have plots schemes and agendas.
Then in what I like to call the EXPANDED VOLOVERSE within fantasy aus (DND, MH, Miitopia, u get it) things get even MORE awkward because then Volo and Cievolo grew up together. Volo is his uncle, younger brother of Cogita, who is Cievolo's maman. They were pretty tight-knit and Volo was practically the only person who supported Eggthia's dreams of bailing out from the small town they were stuck in and pursue grander ventures. Then he died :( so sad :( that he totally definitely absolutely died due to highway robbery and didn't just orchestrate an attack on his jolly merchant band so he could fake his own death and go underground to start hunting for forbidden arcane secrets to destroy the world with so it'd be as empty as he is inside :(
So in those timelines Cievolo picked his name as an active tribute to his DEFINITELY DEAD uncle, the one who always believed in him... and regrets everything whenever Volo inevitably turns out to be alive because oh god. That's so cringe and embarrassing and confusing. What the fcuck. At least in DND-verse he can lie through his teeth and just say he reaaaally enjoys Volothamp's memoirs about monsters. Yup yup. Volo's Guide To Monsters just his favorite book, really.
Cievolo and Steven are also besties. Strained besties with a vast history of C causing Steve a lot of stress. Like a lot. But besties none the less.
Also wow u scrolled all the way down here. commendable. have some post-op boobies.

I absolutely love that it's become widely accepted fanon that Volo is immortal (most common headcanon I've seen is because of Giratina, which is also mine!!) and it would be hilarious if he just continued to randomly show up in future Legends games
I don't personally think he should be the antagonist of Z-A but if he just was behind chaos it's hilarious. honestly him just showing up in general is so fucking funny.
I know it's because people love Volo as a character, and honestly, same! but I also think it's fitting because Cynthia just showed up in HGSS and gen 5 out of nowhere. HGSS at least made a little sense, but she suddenly showed up in gen 5 like "hi(:" with her piano music blasting. and if that's not Volocore I don't know what is
