@steelwxng - plotted starter.
Their footsteps echo as they walk through the Sinnoh Underground, the sound bouncing off the stone walls with the distant sounds of wild Pokemon and the ever constant rhythm of dripping water. They’re sounds Roark has come to love, come to associate with comfort and safety. Sure, mining can be an incredibly dangerous job, one most people wouldn’t even think of pursuing - but he’s never felt more at home than he has here.
He knows his companion understands that sentiment well - after all, from what he’s been told he quite literally met Mothy inside a cave. It had been incredibly nice to have someone to talk to about his lifelong interest - someone who actually shared it as well. Perhaps he and Steven had gotten off on the wrong foot at first - but he now considers the man to be one of his closest friends.
…Maybe a bit more than that, but you’d never catch him admitting it.
“I will say, I don’t often have company down here. It’s a nice change.” His eyes scan the rocky walls of the mines, looking to see if he can spot something gleaming within the stone. “Though I’m sure you’ve come here yourself by now, knowing you. I won’t bore you with a tour or anything - it’s more fun to discover stuff yourself, after all.”
There were few things in this world that Steven found true enjoyment in. A trip underground, the promise of new stones to add to his ever-growing collection and the company of an attractive man were all on that list. The crunch of gravel under his boots familiar and welcome as he and Roark dove deeper into the caves and farther from the others that would spend their time in Sinnoh's Underground. Watching the other walk as he went, not bothering to be subtle in his gaze at this point. He had long realized that Roark either didn't notice or didn't mind though he would be finding out soon enough if all went according to plan. Even if it didn't perhaps he could find himself a new variant of evolutionary stone... perhaps the elusive twilight stone... a beautiful mix of dawn and dusk as rare as it was dazzling. Roark's sudden comment cut through his thoughts and left him mulling over the words for a moment before he could muster a reply, "Of course! Having a companion makes any experience more worthwhile, an expedition like this is no exception in that matter." His eyes turned to the cave ceiling, lingering on any abnormality in the stone. Practice of a well honed craft. "I've been down once or twice alone, but it is reassuring to be down here with someone so reliable. Who better than Oreburgh's own Rock hm? Might as well put those muscles to good use every now and again." He reaches out, patting Roark's bicep lightly before dropping his arm to his side.

The New Sinnoh League!
A crash course, this excludes the process to becoming a gym leader or elite.
It's not easy, but it's fair! Part one of my lore building posts for my main verse.
(Reblogging this here as well, as Steven in this canon helps design this new league!)
hc + Metagross!
send me ‘ hc ‘ + a word and i’ll write a headcanon about it regarding my character. Open! Safety. Familiarity. Companionship. Steven adores his Metagross, and beyond that every single Beldum, Metang and Metagross he sees. He's been with Platinum from when he was a small child, the Beldum growing into the Mega-able Metagross that he knows and loves today with him through all of his trials and tribulations. Not once has that trust they placed in their human companion wavered despite it all. The two are beyond close, and able to communicate non-verbally via Platinum's psychic abilities. On a mundane note, his house is slowly filling with plush beldums and figures of the entire line courtesy of his friends. A man says he needs decor once and it's all he gets as gifts now, beyond the occasional stone from Roark that is. Mothy dove headfirst into the beldum collection and at this point has knitted multiple themed scarfs and blankets for him.

Headcanon;; 001 | Children
Despite everything that happened when he was a child, and his general anxiety about romance on top of that. Steven desperately wants children of his own, adopted, biological or otherwise. He genuinely adores children, no matter the age. Babies and their babbling and tiny hands. Young children and their endless questions, unending curiosity. Older kids and their desperate attempts to be seen as independent. Teenagers and their attempts at playing at being an adult, those first steps in self actualization. Steven guides them all in whatever ways he can, aiding those he runs into and giving whatever advice they may ask for. Now living in Sinnoh he gives free classes to anyone who wants to come, teaching the young trainers around him the secret to being good at battling. A lucky few might even find themselves with a Beldum if one of his many take a liking to them during their visit. This isn't to say these classes are just for children though they do make up the bulk of those that attend. He's open to mentoring anyone who is willing to ask, though he does keep some of his tricks to himself.
❝ do you have the time? ❞
A question often asked, and one he often answered. An endless source of fun little quips he could make. Not as if he had much more to do anyway, amazing what quitting both of your jobs did for the schedule. A flick of his wrist as he raised his right arm revealed a watch under the sleeve ticking away lightly. It matched his keystone's stickpin in design. "About half past one this fine afternoon, though if you meant that less literally it really depends on what you might want a hand with." His arm straightened, the watch once again lost to his sleeve. "I will admit, I may have more available than you might think." Normally he would acknowledge his familiarity. He knew that voice from somewhere in his past. The woman's blond hair his only hint to her identity beyond her height and general grace. Perhaps someone he met as a child in Kalos? Doubtful. He could only hope she would introduce herself again and put an end to his deductions.

Headcanon/Development Questions
Accepting! What’s something your muse has done, in canon or in a thread, that just makes you Love Them TM? Quite a lot honestly! Steven is a character I've obsessed over for years. If I had to point at anything in particular, I love his interactions in the games, his somewhat aloof but always playful attitude and his confidence in himself. His interest in geology is also just... absolutely top notch. I love one rock obsessed man and an his ego. If their neighbour was sick and asked them to do some small household task, does your muse do the household task and leave or do they Offer More? Steven would do as much as he could with his busy schedule. He might not be able to be there to wait on you hand and foot (as much as he might like to for his friends) but he will lend whatever aid he can. He truly loves helping people and will take any chance to do so. Don't say you need or want something around him. He will buy it. He will bring it to you. (this is a threat)
