    Her breath hitches in a moment, eyebrows furrowing in a moment of confusion. Oh, but Dawn wasn’t a stupid girl. Unbelievably naive, yes. But she is smarter then she lets on. Dawn quickly understood what Cynthia is going for. Not only her pokemon would be badly hurt from the spikes, but they’ll be inflicted. The damage from the poison will only get worse with every turn– damn. Cynthia isn’t a champion for nothing. 

   “Sugar, watch out!” Dawn warned to her flying type. After her doubles were getting demolished, Sugar acted on reflexes and dodged the spikes aimed at her. Damn it. She’s a speedy girl, but an illusion is still an illusion. She managed to barely dodge the whirlwind in a nick of time. Oh, she loves a good rush.

     “Ride the winds of the whirlwind, and fly up!” Dawn motioned her arm upwards, ending with a point of a finger pointing to the sky. Sugar heeds her call. The flying type gains immense traction with the whirlwind being used to their own beneift. She wasn’t flying anymore– she was gliding with smooth ease. If there’s a trick a coordinator must keep in mind, it’s to always take advantage of the opponents move for themselves. As Sugar goes up, there was a brief moment when she reached to the climax of the sky. Her entire body covered the sun shining in the sky– she was a solar eclipse of her own. 

   “FLY DOWN! AND USE PROTECT!”

    With no moment to lose, Sugar flies down with massive speed, a shield forms around her while at it. Suspense builds.

     “NOW! USE BRAVE BIRD!” 

     Even more speed builds up, Sugar screeching with delight at this point. With a harsh turn, she boomed behind the Steel-flying type, resulting a hard hit. 

wh--oh, wow. that bird is fast. cynthia didn’t even have time to shout a command to let her skarmory dodge. thankfully, her own bird’s steel typing meant that it didn’t take as much damage as another pokémon would have, but if dawn persisted, that meant skarmory would soon be knocked out…

no matter. skarmory isn’t meant to be an attacking pokémon anyway, and the layer of spikes have been set up on the other side of the field. it’s meant to set up and then get out…if she could stall staraptor for long enough, it would be less of a threat. more interesting to cynthia was the fact that her staraptor seemed none the worse for wear. she hadn’t taken any damage, and looked just as healthy as before. could it be…could it be that dawn’s protect had prevented the bird from suffering recoil? she makes a mental note of it. definitely something she can use in the future.

a plan begins to hatch in her mind, and her next command puts it into action. 

      “spikes again, pure scatter.”

another row of spikes, this time not as extravagant as the previous one, descends on the ground below. unlike the previous row, they seem to be aimed randomly, a decent amount being tossed in sugar’s direction but certainly not on purpose. she’s leaving herself open, waiting for an attack…what could possibly come afterward?

when vessels have kids.

(this overrides some of the information that i put in the about section of @theirvessels so bear that in mind :P)

if the two parents’ patron legendaries are different but in the same tier: kid is 100% guaranteed to be a vessel and has a 50/50 chance of being a vessel of either legendary.

if one parent’s patron legendary is a higher tier than another’s: kid is 100% guaranteed to be a vessel; the higher tier takes precedence--except if the higher tiered parent is a vessel of arceus, in which case the other parent’s typing overrides and the ???-type child becomes a typed vessel of the other legendary.

if a vessel and a non-vessel have a child: kid is 50% likely to inherit the vessel ability, 40% likely to inherit vessel potential, and 10% likely to inherit nothing.

if a vessel and someone with vessel potential (VP) have a child: kid is 75% likely to be a full vessel, 20% likely to only carry the potential and 5% likely to have both full vesselship and vessel potential. having full vesselship and vessel potential means that the child can switch to being a vessel of a different legendary without it being the traumatic process that switching vesselship usually is.

if two people with vessel potential have a child: kid is 47.5% likely to have vessel potential from the father only, 47.5% likely to have vessel potential from the mother only, and 5% likely to have vessel potential from both.

if one parent is transitioning between vesselships: the result depends on how much they transitioned. 49% transitioned or less = treat that parent as having the original vesselship. 50% or more transitioned = treat that parent as having the new vesselship.

FINALLY, SOME GOOD FUCKING FOOD NEWS

let’s get the bad out of the way first: i confessed to my stepdad that i was leaving while under the influence of sleep. fortunately, this led to my grandparents promising that they would never bring up living with my mom again. there’s a part of me that wondered whether they’d try to bring her in unannounced, and so i wanted to leave anyway. but i had this HORRIBLE gut feeling about leaving. like, really bad. this was nothing like the first time i left…the first time i had this strong conviction throughout my panic that i was doing the right thing, but this time i had none of that–it was just pure panic, with everything screaming at me that this was a terrible idea that i would regret for weeks to come.

i’m still considering leaving at some point, which is still stressing me out a significant amount–so the hiatus and low activity notices are still in effect. but now that leaving the house is a matter of desirability rather than emergency, i won’t be leaving on sunday and i have a bit more room to breathe.

[eternathorn]

INDEFINITE HIATUS NOTICE.

as some of you may know, back in september i left my abusive mom. i returned home after she agreed to move out since the rest of the family was so panicked by my leaving, but now she is coming back and so i have to run away yet again. ALL OF THIS WAS ARRANGED TODAY. I HAVE ONLY THREE DAYS TO PREPARE MY LEAVE and the majority of two of those days will be spent hanging out with one of my internet friends who has planned her visit to me for at least a month………truly, my mom couldn’t have come back at a worse time. something else major recently happened that i won’t be talking about (although i’m sure many of you know what it is already), but it tanked my energy and mental health for the first twelve days or so of january. between that and fucking this, i have nothing left in me to maintain activity on this blog or any of the other blogs i’m reblogging this to.

on top of mental health, i have low muse on all the blogs i’m reblogging this to, so i honestly don’t know when i’ll be back. i may pop on if i get a burst of inspiration, but no promises.

thank you for reading and understanding,

vessels CANNOT form consensual sexual relationships with their patrons due to the POWER IMBALANCE. a vessel’s patron legendary has a large amount if not complete control over their actions--enough control that if a vessel of theirs refused sex, they would be able to force that vessel to have sex with them anyway. it would be a situation like a master having sex with a servant but bass boosted. this is not to say that vessels can’t have relationships with other deities, as those deities don’t have any control over them whatsoever. but among legendaries, having sex or any sort of romantic relationship with one’s own vessels is a massive taboo.

      ❝i was wondering what sort of gift i should give to an angel,❞ she says, holding out a hand to him. ❝and then i had the most wonderful idea. i’ve choreographed a performance for you, and i’ve reserved the biggest theater in town just for the two of us! come with me. the show starts in ten minutes.❞

there’s something else she wants to give at the end of it, an even bigger gift that she hopes birdy will treasure for the rest of his immortal life. but that…she’s going to keep that a surprise.

[quasimyth-a]

@a-hell-of-a-lot-of-muses​.

      ❝i’ve been quite busy lately,❞ she says. ❝i only recently just finished making this. i’ll admit i have no idea what you wanted for the holidays, but i thought this was something you’d appreciate.❞

she reveals the book from behind her back--a leather-bound, ornately gilded collection of her own personal handwritten field notes on the distortion world. it occurs to her that she’s definitely not the first person to have given him a book as a present and he might be sick of receiving the most obvious gifts people could give, but this book ought to be different. she does hope he likes it…dare she say the thought of that makes her cold, dead heart flutter?

      ❝happy new year!❞

[quasimyth-a]

@sinnohsavior​.

      ❝i hope you’ve been having a pleasant new year.❞ her smile is warm, but her voice is cool. ❝my apologies in the delay of this gift. as champion, i’ve had many things to attend to, especially over the holidays.❞

she gives her a shining gold-and-silver necklace, perfect for showing off whether at a party or onstage. its size and simple patterns would make it easily noticeable especially in a contest setting when the judges were distant from the action, and less likely to take note of elaborate details in a costume. she’s not even sure whether dawn still enjoys contests after the whole public debacle during their battle, but even if not, jewels are a girl’s best friend.

[quasimyth-a]

@fcssilized​.

      ❝that woman fusing fossils in galar--well, i never!❞ she huffs as the box in her hands jostles with the restlessness of new life. ❝just so we’re clear, this isn’t one of those inhumane fusions she’s contrived. but i did manage to steal a slab of fossilized bird. i brought it to the fossil restoration center on route 8. and, well, you can guess what happened next.❞

she sets the box down on the floor and opens it, revealing not a bird, but a tiny electric/flying velociraptor pokémon! it scurries over to roark, curiously inspecting his boots and trousers…and then the little rascal takes a hold of his pant leg in its jaws. cynthia laughs as the dinosaur tries to clamber up her new owner, digging tiny sharp claws into his outfit for grip. 

      ❝looks like you’re going to need new pants!❞

[quasimyth-a]

@exspiravited​.

      ❝my apologies for the late gift,❞ she says. ❝i thought i could finish this sooner, but it took a little longer than expected. i hope you had a wonderful christmas and new year~❞

she pulls the blanket off the giant orb that it covered, an orb as tall as she is. inside is a dark mass of galactic antimatter studded with shining antimatter “stars”; the image of a great wyrm, giratina in its origin form, stirs within. it’s not a painting, yet not quite a sculpture either--it is far more elusive, far more ethereal; the being within looks too alive to be a statue. if giratina tilts her head, she’ll see iridescent colors within the dark, and if she looks at just the right moment, she’ll see the flash of red draconic eyes made from antimatter jewels.
