Miles's younger brother, David Parra! I was gonna post this together with his little brother when I finished drawing him but these look so cute I'm sharing it now!

[pinkssunrise]

Future!Miles and his siblings. Around 5 to 10 years in the future!

I actually finished this almost a month ago but I wanted to post this along with his future e4/partners and Lin design but I figured I'd post it now and the others later when I feel like finishing them.

More info:

Miles:

He is the champion of reborn obviously, the only one who have gotten close to beating him are Fern, Shelly, Cal, Saphira and Adrienn (Although that was only once and then never again.)

He's in his early to mid 30's.

He is married to Cal, Saphira, Ace and Taka! He proposed to Cal and Saphira, while both Taka and Ace proposed to him.

The ring on his right hand (Ruby stone) is the wedding ring from Cal.

The ring on his left hand (Sapphire stone) is the wedding ring from Saphira.

The ring hanging from his right ear (Emerald stone) is the wedding ring from Taka.

The ring hanging from his right ear which is intertwined with the Taka's ring (Amethyst stone) is the wedding ring from Ace.

He first married Cal, The Saphira and then Taka and Ace at the same time, they were already married to each other at that point which is why their rings are intertwined.

Laura is the one who inspired him to grow his hair out even more.

His boots has type designs based on his e4 members.

Still has the same color scheme as before besides his belt.

This design is close to his second appearance design but with more details.

David:

He is the pokemon professor of the reborn region, he studies the new world! He also helps Adrienn and Miles with new trainers who come to the region and does other stuff.

18-23 years old.

Still best friends with Noel.

Inspired to grow his hair out like his big brother.

Teaches at Onyx's trainer school sometimes.

Was the top student at Onyx's trainer school, he also graduated there.

Realized he's aromantic.

His outfit is pretty much the same from when he was a child but his shirt colors are inverted and he now wears a lab coat.

Rose:

World famous athlete (Track runner)

21-26 years old

Travels the world when competing in sports.

Still very close with Charlotte and Aya.

Is no longer as lonely and angry, she's also confident now.

Her outfit is now much more comfier and easy to wear, but still has a leather jacket.

Davis:

7-12 years old

Enjoys hanging out with Blake and Heather in the orphanage.

Thanks to Shelly enjoys a lot of reading.

He's got a full team of six nfe pokemon, all gifted to him by his family/friends.

Brionne (Miles)

Magby (Cal)

Dratini (Saphira)

Gible (Taka)

Fenniken (Ace)

Cleffa (Noel)

Miles and Davis live in the Belrose mansion with Miles's partners and Charlotte, Laura and Bennett. Rose technically lives there too, but due to a lot of traveling both in the reborn region and outside of it she tends to sleep in hotels/pokemon centers.

David used to live there with them, but David moved to Lower Peridot Ward to live closer to the Grand Hall for his job there.

Miles and his siblings ref!

[pinkssunrise]

I need to draw and talk about Miles's siblings more. Which is a shame because they are they own characters and not just Miles's siblings which drive his actions.

They don't appear until mid/late post game, but they have a big impact from there!

They arrive in Reborn a little while after Miles goes to Agate (probably on like, boat, considering the train is out of commission) and help out with fixing the city!

They get close with Adrienn, Arc and Victoria. They also meet Rini and Julia, Davis even meets Shade.

They even meet Cal when he goes to tell Ame what happened at Agate and about Terra and they are interested in him because their brother talked about him.

Rose gets close with Charlotte, David with Noel. Davis is a different story because he was originally a toddler, but I'm thinking of changing his age something between 5-12 so he can properly make friends with everyone.)

David is incredibly smart and enrolled in a universtity at 14 years old, but because of that had trouble making friends.

Rose was a track runner and the best of her class before getting a leg injury and being to she had to stop. She isolated herself after that.

And they finally make friends but then their brother/caretaker goes missing after Main Game aaaa

Lines Blur Between Venezuelan Dystopia and Caribbean Cyberpunk

source

Right in the borders of Pueblo Nuevo, under the shadows cast by a brutalist building, it’s common to find barefoot teenagers holding blankets covered with cellphones over a decade old. They trade them for food or more electronic junk.

Meanwhile, soldiers on a nearby truck check citizen’s fingerprints and QR codes ofcarnets de la patria to sell regulated products. On the background, the rhythm of the trap bass (banned on radio stations and only available on the Internet) creates the perfect tropical cyberpunk atmosphere, where people talk about buying bananas with cryptocurrencies or electronic money transfers. 

In Venezuela, the lack of access to basic services is becoming more frequent. Water and transportation may not be easy to find, but technology and the expansion of the digital era represent a fundamental part in Venezuelans’ lives. It is also one of the main devices used by chavismo for propaganda and control, as it’s a space without any defined legislation, a fertile wasteland for illegality.

The captahuellas, a biometric control implemented by the State to regulate food, subsidies and services, aims to turn the human body into a sign over. On her paper “The Body as Data”, the Venezuelan lawyer and activist Marianne Díaz says: “Biometry aims to delimit a space for legality and illegality, allowing the State to establish the boundaries between the ‘wanted’ and ‘unwanted’, (…) while providing a social benefit (…). The main purpose for implementing this type of system is the creation of limits of exclusion to grant or deny people’s rights”, thus violating not only the autonomy over our own body, but coercing us into surrendering to these mechanisms because otherwise, we would become pariahs of the system.

As I walk through a crowded street, I lean in front of an informal stand covered with broken cellphones, burned out electric stoves and light bulbs. I ask one of the boys who polishes touchscreens if I can take a picture of him. He says no, holding my gaze with a sharp gesture of reprobation: clearly, most of the spare parts he’s working with are stolen. However, I dare to ask one more question: “What’s your newest device?”, “Samsung S5, unrestricted” he replies. It’s a 2014 mobile. The economic crisis has restrained Venezuelans’ access to technology, while increasing the fear to acquire it due to the risk of being robbed or murdered for it. The boy doesn’t hesitate to haggle its price in USD or Paypal transfers

I leave through a narrow lane that leads to the 20th St., and I reach an old and small cybercafé. It has been days since I had a trustworthy internet connection in my apartment. I log in to check my email and my Twitter account. Next to me, a couple of teenagers divide the rows of old computers into two groups: The ones that play RPG online and the ones who check faucets. Both are payed activities.

A 16-year-old girl explains to me that faucets consist of watching publicity, making CAPTCHAs and reCAPTCHAs in exchange of small cryptocurrency based payments through virtual accounts. “Most pages pay in Satoshis (minimal unit of bitcoin) or in other currencies that we later change for dogecoins,” she says. These kids save cryptos in the cloud and trade them for strong fiat money. The girl assures that after a month doing it two or three times a week, she can make from 5 to 15 USD a month. In spite of severe governmental control and internet censorship, these kind of activities seem to determine many people’s survival

Organized crime uses technology as well. Criminal gangs as big as El Tren del Llano, or El Tren de Aragua post pictures or videos exhibiting weapons, hiring sicarios and, in the worst of cases, performing tortures and executions in their personal Instagram or Facebook accounts. They also use the digital trail provided by some apps to kidnap and extort people. Drones (forbidden in the country since 2016) work as their newnarcomulas and combat weapons. Kidnappers and arms dealers launder money through cryptos, shielded by the anonymity it offers.  

I  leave the cybercafé and try to return home. I wait for a perrera, a dangerous way of provisional transportation. The driver talks to another passenger about the price of gas. The driver and the passenger agree: We will all have to get the carnet de la patria in order to live through this.

I live in the eroded limits of a post-industrial dystopia, one that was promised as a tech paradise but, in the end, it has barely reached the 21st century because of its stubborn totalitarian anachronism. Of course, this looked better in books and movies. It’s terrifying to watch it happen while riding a kennel-truck, through a silent city that looks empty before night falls.

Arrozales.

Espero como un tigre dormido

                                                  Que el viento deje de soplar veneno

Soñando 

una cascada                                        frente a las columnas de basalto

                                                          Espuma de ortigas y hielo

Mis vertebras son vigas             de                   musgo cruzado

Entre los arrozales          donde corren        los           niños.
