I don't have much time to draw anything new, so I hope we don't mind old clips of art.
Okay, so writing and/or illustrating this would be quite the endeavor. So I'll try to explain here what I'm thinking In case I never get the time to draw all the things I'd like. I have a cinematic brain, and I'd love to draw some sequential comics, but....those take SO MUCH time. But this is About That Proposed Split in the timeline, in which AZ does happen to encounter Kissmira and he allows himself to be her companion.
I have mentioned Kiss' Yamask, but I haven't gone too deeply into detail about what's up with them. So if entertained, she would probably place a hard fork in occurrences and cause quite the split. I accept he's finally resting in canon.
BUHT
I'd like to continue drawing AZ and messing around with him as an interesting character from here. He's stated to have been a purposeful loner much of his life, so I'd like to entertain myself with him adjusting to community, family, and out of left field, becoming a father,
um so i'm thankful to anyone who's an audience to my barbies lol SO,

If I can place a totem or some anchor point here, AZ and Kiss met shortly after the events of XY. She saw the champion parade unfold on TV, recognized him from around Lumiose, and offered to tend to his hair free of charge at her own private salon as soon as she saw him again. They butt heads in a pleasant, belly warming way, so he kept accepting her invitations to see each other. They were friends for 3 years, in which he was incredibly timid and flighty about his growing romantic feelings. Weird and strange and a little painful and frightening, this feeling is. He's told himself for many years it will never be a good idea to get too close to anyone. But Kiss is a very hard person to deter, his match,
she retired, followed him around whatever region he went while sorting out what else he'd like to do with his life, and eventually he gave into the desire for love. He wed her sometime in the 2 years after their mutual admissions while AZ invested in his hotel. --- Another note before I can continue: Like AZ, I wanted to design Kiss with ancient ties. She only has three pokemon on her team [ so far]. An Alpha Furfrou, a Rotom, and a special Ghost/Fairy Yamask.
-The Yamask is an heirloom pokemon passed down from several generations. And is only a few hundred years younger than AZ. They're traded to the youngest daughter, And it's forbidden to evolve her, but it's been so long that no one remembers why. - This Yamask dwells in the basement of Hotel Z while Kiss is there assisting management with the children. She and AZ's Floette DO NOT get along. And are kept apart to prevent a brawl. - AZ isn't easily unnerved, but this Yamask always gives him unease. It tends to watch him very closely. - it actually makes everyone but kissmira uneasy. the children avoid the basement for this reason. ---- I've discussed this before, but now that I've played Z-A, I think I need to make some amendments to this mysterious character trapped as a ghost pokemon. With that out of the way. I wanted to explore some people being literal descendants of pokemon. It's somewhat implied already, right? Taiga, the soul and face of the Yamask, at her prime, could go powerfully berserk from mega energy. She's an ancient warrior woman, who would have practiced a style of battling more suitable for hand to hand combat with an enemy. Brandishing her own weapon, using pokemon moves thought impossible for a human, in sync with an equally powerful partner boosting her. She would have been called a witch, a daemon, a scourge, a reaper, A LEECH. This advanced 'sharing' of power is only possible if someone up the line in a family tree is a powerful pokemon, and the person is willing to delve into knowledge they probably shouldn't. I'm still debating, but I might be keen on making my own vengeful pseudo legendaries for this purpose. Someone has to be a forefather granting her a giant's body and lineage, and someone has to hold them both in deep disdain so that she can be cursed.
Like her name, Taiga's heart is a cold desert. She's callous, arrogant, greedy, self centered, covetous, and manipulative. No love to be found, only conquest in battle. She doesn't care for people or friendship, beyond what they could possibly do for her. But above all else, she craves ultimate power. Taiga wants to be a legendary pokemon herself. But...a long time ago, she met her match and was felled before she could destroy anything else in her path. She's cursed to be undying in something similar to a 'blood share'. And it would be unwise to enter a pact with her, and submit yourself to her coven.
The stipulations of this curse I'm revising from previous postings so...bear with me. I need to think on it more, and how it fits into mega energy and eternal life and bonds between people. But she has a theme of vampirism, and ironically, needs to 'share in a loop' with a group in love to maximize her strength. [ that i eventually want to tie into with the old evil emperor of paldea and my werewolf au with larry, but i shouldn't get side tracked] Now what I'm actually getting at, I imagine would occur before the events of Z-A, before Kiss knows, or maybe is prepared to tell him that she is pregnant.
Seeing opportunity in AZ's health beginning to fail, she would offer to share this 'pokemon fortitude' that she has. Offer the strength of body so that he can carry the years he's accrued and much much more, if that's what he desires. She would tempt him, with the opportunity to experience truly community, continue drinking deeply of romantic and strong platonic love, or to...live long enough to meet his child and witness what sort of man he becomes. [what kind of people they all become]
If he resists, absolutely denies her his blood, denies her leech of the love he's discovered, she'll simply...use his child when he's gone. [ I'd prefer the king of the board, but The blood of the crown prince, will do. ]
Utter confusion... and a complete pause in the strange encounter,
He doesn't have a child? ... Perhaps, he and Kiss both have things they need to disclose to each other. Anyway,
AZ is quite a valuable encounter for Taiga, and fully endorses Kiss' relationship with him. If only, to keep her grandest daughter fulfilled, and to keep AZ as a Wealth of Dangerous Knowledge and residual energy. His proximity to the immortal fairy... wretched little flower beast, how dare she threaten her! But how delicious in the love they share.
To leech and be life eternal, just like a legend. And the light of ruin! How magnificent. How could she not seize that? To make AZ physically stronger would be nothing to her. She's already fortified Kiss as a caution. Why else would an ordinary woman grow so large, so much larger than the rest of her ordinary family? She can't have any of them in the grave, that won't do. Taiga, doesn't want to remain a weak yamask. She'd like to resow the seeds of becoming powerful again, strong enough to rematch who felled her. She IS like a witch with a cauldron, and needs to pull ingredients together to finally, after all these years, reach her grandest wish. AZ is a component of the brew, and so is Kiss...her blood inheritor and grandest daughter and the only connection she has in a string of crossed lives. Love where she can not, so that she can use ALL OF IT FOR HERSELF. Their covenant together, their marriage, makes AZ her son anyway, he should already belong to her. [ she's absolutely terrible I know <3 ] So, will he be tempted....? Make one last rash, selfish decision? It's harder this time to tell himself no. He's so in love, in so many different ways. And the babe... he wants to see him so very badly.
If...If he has his own clever stipulations. Perhaps, he'll shake her hand. Petition for her trainer to wear her mask. And accept the Love Bite.
--- Final side notes: - This fortifying power would explain why my AZ Looks Like That -No take backs. - Taiga is TERRIFIED of Zygarde.
so.....what do we think? lol
