I shall raise Unova's ideal future.

Witness the creation of Team Plasma's greatest weapon!

So, I noticed some people have been following this account recently. I don't want to change too much, because I'm not gonna keep it forever, but I thought it might be a good idea to put up an explanation so newcomers don't get confused.

How do I do this.. hmm. Uh, hey there! My name is Alder. I'm the one taking care of Ghetsis's kids while he recovers from an injury. N, Concordia, and Anthea are all with me, and I also have my own kiddo here, Ryuki. He's actually Ghetsis's kid too, but our custody arrangement is pretty new..

Anyway, I know most of you are here because you wanna check in on the Harmonia kids, so I'll do my best to keep updating this thing. I'm pretty new to all this tech stuff, so go easy on me, okay? Haha.

Also, I'm afraid I won't be able to answer any questions about Team Plasma. I'm not affiliated with them, I just used to know Ghetsis back in our college days.

Uh, sorry no clue it was a gift. Y?

Just curious, haha.

Don't worry about it. The kids will be having their concert later, so look forward to some pictures.

[raising-harmony]

might have cotton in it. maybe polyester

I mean, something I can't tell for myself. I can tell it's a crochet plush with stuffing and button eyes, haha..

[raising-harmony]

probably made of fabric

... Anything else?

[raising-harmony]

Could any of y'all tell me a bit about N's plushie? Just curious...

[raising-harmony]

Thing's have been alright here. Anthea's been planning a home concert with Ryuki, isn't that nice?

We're still working on a way for N to be able to listen without getting overstimulated. I think some noise cancellers should do the trick, so it's just a matter of picking some up from the store.

[raising-harmony]

C.. col.. colres-ssh.

... Hmm?

Where.. where a-a..re.. they?

Oh, uh...

Where..

Hey! Isn't it time for another healing? Ahaha, let me go get that lady.. Shoo, shoo, all of you, I don't need a bunch of eyeballs staring at me.

N's warming up a bit to Drayden. We noticed he's got some struggle with his fine motor control; kiddo can't hold a pencil very well. At his age, he should have a dynamic grip, but right now, he can only hold it in a fist. So what Drayden decided to do is spread out some jellybeans on the table and have N pick 'em up, alternating between using rubber tweezers and his hands. It allows him to practice hand-eye coordination and a pinching grasp. Since he gets to have candy, he doesn't seem to mind that this is sort of schoolwork, haha.

[coldslaws-gear-station]

sorry for the radio silence x_x still on hiatus for a bit, life is kicking my ass

[raising-harmony]

Anyway.. Gonna read to the kiddos while Drayden gets food ready. They must be getting behind on their curriculums by now, but I'm afraid this is the most I can do. Can you all believe Anthea and Concordia are already 13, and N is 9?

[raising-harmony]

Yknow, things are really settling down around here..

Gosh, how long has it been already?

I don't really want to be getting used to this. Hah..

[raising-harmony]

N's taken on a whole new fascination with his zorua plush lately. I'm not sure why.

[raising-harmony]

I think it might just be that he's getting more comfortable here, so he's more willing to play. We couldn't do much for his birthday except a couple small gifts, but ever since then, he's been a lot more tolerant of everyone.

what yall favorite vegetables?

Huh, this is a fun question! Nice to see after everything's been kinda heavy..

Mine is probably kabocha. There's tons of things you can do with it- I'm partial to soups, personally, but I haven't had it prepared in a way I don't like so far. It's a little harder to find in Unova, though, so butternut squash is a fine substitute.

Ryuki likes his cauliflower. He used to really like spinach, too, but he might have made himself sick off of that- back when he just hit his growth spurt, he was awfully anemic for a bit, so he tried to eat as many iron-dense foods as he could. Spinach was his first choice then.. Haven't seen him eat it much since.

As for the Harmonia kiddos, I honestly haven't seen N turn down a vegetable yet, so I'm not sure what his favorite is.. Ah, except he has turned down hot peppers. He hates spicy things.

Anthea is sort of the same, although.. she seems to eat things even if she doesn't like them, rather than eating them because she does. That worries me a bit. I went ahead and asked her what her favorite is, and she likes carrots and bell peppers the most. Good choices!

As for Concordia, she told me her favorite is sweet corn. Wonder if she'd like cream corn? I should make it as a side dish sometime. I always keep a bunch of vegetables in my house, so thank goodness everyone seems to love them.

And before any of you get on me- trust me, I know some of these are actually fruits botanically, haha. Some fruits can be vegetables when it comes to culinary use.

Do you think you can fucking threaten me? You seem to not fully encapsulate the amount of dirt I have on you. I have all the time in the world you slimey bastard. Keep my Hydreigon's name out your disgusting fucking mouth when the one in your care has a body count with your boss's name on it.

You can not threaten me in a way that matters.

[Maybe he went too far. This could bite him in the ass later, but ah, he thinks he was vague enough for any outsider to not see it as a threat. It really wasnt a theat, he has no interest in tangling with such a dragon again, but getting under the skin of this pest.. It's a nice feeling. He hopes "Lou" will just look like a loon, whenever all this comes to a head.]

[Colress closes Rotomblr for the time being, looking back over his shoulder into his lab. "Ms Koizumi, have I told you how much I admire your work here?"]

[raising-harmony]

Awww, the horrors. I suppose that means I get to harrass both you and him more. This is pleasant news ideed! 👁️‍🗨️

[I'm soooo scared.]

[He kind of is, actually, but why would he let him know that?]

[I dunno how to tell you this, but it's getting sad at this point. You sound like you need help, as obsessive as you are. And that's really saying a lot coming from me!]

[Maybe it's time to realize that there are far better hobbies than internet stalking. Your hydreigon could use the attention, I'd bet. I hear they're fickle.]

[raising-harmony]

And what exactly are you all smiles and sunshine about, hm? Got something to share to the class? 👁️‍🗨️

[You again! Aha, not with you, no. Nooooo...]

[Ah, well, I can't keep it in! We're making great strides with Ghetsis, haha! He spoke. SPOKE. I mean, not particularly well, I don't even know what he was trying to say, but he's awake!]

[TAKE THAT, YOU LITTLE SHI] [This portion of text is deleted before sending.]
