#dashbored au

Pokémon Ranger AU Idea I had for Dashbored, except I forgot to ranger-fy Nicolas bc I didn't have an idea going in. I rlly think they forced him into a job once he landed into The Garden, as per usual

And that Car they give him? That's a whole Koraidon. Collecting the memories mayyyy add to its stamina, but I'm still thinking about it. It was Alex's at first, but the two never really shared a bond. (Also yes, Temporocal and Damicelle are Palkia and Dialga.)

Hey fox spirit, why, oh why?

Why, oh why did you save me?

Sharpening your claws in a lonely shrine

Possess me, possess me, did you possess me?

Was listening to Invader! Invader! Last night and it gave me enough inspiration to insert myself into one of dashbored's old art panels

Here's the OG for comparison!

And the art I was working with! Mimicking artstyles is so fun~!

Oc reblog reminded me i don't ever think I have talked about my Dashbored, selfship au. Millie DB real guys, I want to bite Alex Asboth/Nikolai Karanova

Anyways this was a mere doodle, here's what it looks like without the dialogue box

This AU is also sad bc it's also kinda venty and personal ? Nothing too serious under the cut I just get embarrassed really easy LMAO

Millie is often mistaken for Nash due to their similarities, but are completely different, in some ways. Of course, a grief stricken Alex Asboth wouldn't care about that. Millie falls in love because she falls in love—Alex? Because it's just Nash 2.0. Alex was previously distant since they only met thru Nicolas, whom had met her in the residence of Coton. They got along for a while, then Nicolas was off doing his own thing and Millie was kinda isolated by the party (something something hard to feel right with other people so I wanted to portray that here)

Since she was a newbie she wanted to prove herself, got into all heaps of trouble. Unsure if she has components—maybe? Probably not. Everyone is kindve agitated at her, especially Alex. Even still she does try to earn their validation and at the same time keep to herself. It's weird.

Realistically he would never do this, I just think it's fun to be evil and torture. Eventually they do sort themselves out, but I dunno if that'll be in db or Mechana given this man is going to go through canonical torture. However I do think Alex would be very distant or odd around Millie simply due to resemblances with Nash.

It'd be really awesome for Nash to just hate Millie because she could find even better, right?

I think for Millie and Nikolai it's a bit more self-indulgent/personal since he's an actual asshat, imo. They do have the dynamic of trying to constantly kick each others' asses cartoon style though.

I feel weird typing this as I don't want it to come off the wrong way but I might as well ramble about it. I need to use this blog LMAO

I might talk more Abt the db au shit idk
