Hello do you have any headcannons for lonna shipping please :>
Gladion x Moon (selene/mizuki) hc's
• Gladion admired Moon for her impressive skill as a pokemon trainer
• Of course they were rivals, and he wanted to surpass her, but she is the first person who made battling seem fun for him, rather then just a means to survive and get stronger
• Of course getting stronger was his main goal, but each time they battled one another, Gladion finally understood how a pokemon battle can be fun, especially when it's with a friend, and how battling a strong opponent you respect will only make you steonger
• As they got older, Gladion realised he had complicated feelings for Moon, that he didn't really understand himself
• He was convinced these feelings he had for Moon was just admiration, after all she's the strongest trainer in Alola
• Hau and Lillie can see how obvious his feelings are for her, despite being oblivious himself
• Moon is also completely blind to this
• Moon never thought Gladion was a bad guy
• She could see from how torn his clothes were, how fragile his body seemed, how he was treated by the team skull grunts... and most importantly how his pokemon battled for him
• She knew his Pokemon saw him as not just a trainer but as a friend, so that told Moon that despite his roughness and cool guy tsundere act that Gladion was a good person underneath it all
• Moon defended any harsh words anyone ever said about Gladion, because even though he wasn't always fhe nicest to her, and he didn't consider them friends, she still thought of him as her friend
• Maybe even part of Moon...always secretly liked Gladion more than a friend, but she couldn't admit it out loud, in fear of rejection as she believed Gladion didn't even consider them true friends
• Lillie had to literally spell it out for Gladion to realise he had a crush on Moon
• He was in denial for the longest time, and he avoided her sub-consciously because of this
• It wasn't until Gladion was training with kahuna Nanu that Nanu made a passing joke and he realised how obvious his feelings were to everyone but himself
• When Moon was training on the beach one late night with her pokemon, Gladion caught up to her and asked for a battle
• After the heated battle Moon waited for Gladion to take his leave, as he usually disappeared after battling her, but to her surprise this time he stayed, and asked if they could train together
• Moon was happy to train alongside Gladion, happy he was coming out of his shell more and more
• They continued to meet up for nightly training sessions, continuing to get stronger together
• When Hau invited Moon for malasadas she somehow convinced Gladion to come too, snd of course Lillie tagged alomg
• When the four of them were sat eating Malasadas Hau jokingly asked when they were gonna start dating
• Gladion reacted badly to this, feeling both embarrassed and exposed
• Moon was also embarrassed, but when she saw how Gladion reacted to this she felt deeply saddened...she knew her and Gladion wernt exactly friends, he had told this to her face...yet she felt strangely close to him, and him reacting badly to the thought of them two dating...even if was just a joke...it upset her
• Gladion noticed how Moons' demeanor changed after this, but he couldn't figure out why
• He thought he had done something wrong so he stopped showing up to the beach to train alongside her
• Moon felt heartache by this... she looked forward to seeing him every night
• It had been a little while since the two had seen each other
• During this time Gladion realised how much he truly did like Moon in that way, he missed training with her, but not only the training...
• He missed the pointless conversations they'd have, even the ones where he remained silent and listened to Moon's rambling, he missed the way her aqua grey eyes shined in the moonlight... he missed the look of determination and excitement in her eyes during a battle... he missed her smile...
• It may of took him a concerning amount of time to realise his feelings
• Moon had almost gave up on her own feelings, so no matter how much her heart longed for Gladion she couldn't face telling him
• After all...she couldn't confess to someone who admitted to not even liking her...
• Gladion was silent for a while, Moon a bit more quiet then usual, the two both wanting the same thing convinced the other doesnt
• Moon started up the conversation...
•"Look Gladion I know we aren't friends, but your one of my most precious people, and Im so happy we get to know each other...even if you don't see us as friends."
•Gladion looked down at a sheepish Moon, tears prickling in her eyes
•"It's not that I don't consider you a friend...your the closest thing I have to one. I don't think someone like myself deserves to be a friend to you."
• It was true, whilst when the first initially met Gladion didn't care for friendship, once Moon helped save his mother he had to have a certain level of respect for her...but even through the years together Gladion didn't think such a pure soul like Moon should have someone like himself as a friend, someone who had fo rely being team skulls muscle to survive, someone who felt they'd abandoned their sister, someone who could never seem to best them in battle...
• "What do you mean someone like you...? Your amazing Gladion...your really are!"
•"Thank you. Even if i don't believe it myself I appreciate it coming from someone as special as you."
• He paused for a moment, blushing deep and looking away from her
•"Your...really special Moon....and I don't mean just the way everyone says you are because you received a sparkling stone from Tapu KoKo....I mean your special, to me....and I like you!"
•Moon was silent and just repeating his words over and over in her head
•Gladion shifted uncomfortably in her silence
•"You like me?"
"Don't make me repeat myself!!"
• Gladion started rambling in an attempt to cover what he'd admitted
•Moon was still sat in silence
• "Do you like me in the way I think you mean?"
• "Which way do you think I mean?"
• Gladion thought this was his opportunity pursuade her it wasn't how she thought
• Moon thought this was an opportunity to finally reveal her own feelings...or completely embarrass herself is she misunderstood
• Gently, yet quickly she clasped her hands on Gladions face and dived onto his lips, kissing him sweetly but passionate
• She pulled away after a couple of seconds...
•"That's...that is the way you meant, right?"
• Gladion blushed but nodded
▪︎ Moon just smiled and kissed him again, Gladion this time being somewhat prepared, looped his hands around Moons back, shyly returning the kiss
•Lillie and Hau were so relieved to finally have these two together, them both knowing Gladion and Moons feelings but keeping the secret was torture!
• Gladion, whilst overwhelmed with joy finally being with Moon, was also incredibly nervous and unsure about everything
• He had a cool guy attitude but Moon could see through it with ease, and she could see how anxious he truly was
• Gladion was always unsure if an expensive date and getting dressed up like they do in the movies should be the sort of date the two go on... I mean he did come from a rich family
• Moon was happy with malasadas and a stroll on the beach or a battle tree date, and Gladion was happy that Moon was happy
• They have a very golden retriever and black cat kinda relationship
• Gladion is reserved, but can be fiesty, has blank stares but a smile that can melt you. Moon has a outgoing, seemingly happy demeanor and whilst she looks like she's all bark no bite, she does have a pretty ferocious bite if you hurt those she cares for
• Gladion and Moon live for double battles! These two will challenge anyone and everyone who'll accept
• They love to train together, their pokemon working well together and complimenting one another in battles, defending each other and covering one another's weaknesses
• Though when they battle each other its a different story, they may know each others teams strengths and weaknesses like they know their own, yet each battle they have something unexpected from the other person happens
• Gladion is a pretty anxious person underneath and just being around Moon relaxes him
• Moon leaves his little notes or cute gifts in places he'll find like in his pokeballs as held items or in his bag
• Gladion is reluctant about PDA just because he's a private person
• Gladion always feels anxious when Moon is off exploring / doing missions in ultra space because he's learnt firsthand how dangerous these beasts are
• They are Alolas cutest couple, snd since Moon is champion and Gladion was acting president of the aether foundation they are both pretty well known
•Rotomdex is their biggest shipper
• Closely followed by Kahuna Olivia who finds the pair adorable
• Gladion finally has a person he can confide in and share what's on his mind or in his heart, someone he can rely on
• Overall these two just compliment each other very well, they strive to protect the people they love and make sure that everyone and all pokemon are treated fairly
• Gladion making sure that the aether foundation goes back to its original values, to help injured pokemon and protect species from distinction
• Moon keeping up her training and meeting new people and pokemon that will enrich her journey, and defending her championship
princess tutu gladmoon au omg!!
I know the Lonashipping community is dry rn. So I decided to release this video I had in my computer since the hype of the ship. I had 10 seconds left to finish this but never did. I still have lona block to this day but hope You’ll like it
Tide Pools
Outcast
There is a hut deep in Ula’ula Meadow that has gone unnoticed for years because Alolans know that to see it is to meet your demise.
Moon knocked three times on the door, very impatiently, and then told the witch inside that she’s shorter than imagined.
Acerola stared up at her silently for a long moment, and then her face broke into a wide grin as she slammed the door to her hut wide open and laughed for her to come in before the sun dried her out.
Gladion is still unsure how they’ve made it this far without dying.
Read the rest on Ao3
it means you’re surrounded by self-sacrificing idiots lmao
Lonashipping and 4!! ^v^
YEEEHAW
so soft warning I took some liberties and used @cindercate ’s OC/Moon equivalent which is basically Moon, but an asshole
but its basically lonashipping still
enjoy!
4. An accidental brush of lips followed by a pause and going back for another, on purpose.
A crash resounded throughout the conservatory, leaving a tired Gladion to groan in its wake. He had been hoping to get some peace and quiet in the middle of the night, before heading to bed, but alas.
It had to be Mahina, right? He mused, definitely not hoping deep down that it was, in fact, her.
With a reluctant sigh from Gladion and another crash - sounding oddly close to the mansion - the young man headed towards the elevator, Silvally following faithfully. The walk was short, with Gladion’s brisk walking pace, and as he entered the garden area between Aether Paradise proper and the mansion, he nearly turned around and left.
It was, without a doubt, Mahina.
… In her Ultra Space gear, atop a wailing Nebby in all of her Lunala glory, surrounded by a myriad of Quagsire, of all things.
Gladion squinted, almost certain he could see a few pink Quagsire mixed in with the blue mass, also wailing.
Mahina grinned sheepishly at him, waving a hand half-heartedly.
“Mahina, what the fuck.” His voice was deadpanned, used to the antics she brought with her, yet forever wishing she just… wouldn’t.
She stretched atop Nebby, who’s wailing had quieted, barely. “Well, you see…” she mumbled as Gladion walked closer to her, eyes narrowed.
Silvally barked a dry laugh, amused.
“Yes, I do see a few dozen Quagsire, Mahina,” Gladion quipped. He crossed his arms over his chest. One Quagsire turned to look at him, pink, and female - by the size of its fin. She tilted her head, letting out a small croak.
Beady eyes latched onto his soul, reading his entire being.
Gladion shivered involuntarily.
“Mahina, dear Arceus, get rid of them,” he groaned.
And yet, it seemed she had other ideas.
“No, no no no, not yet! That’s Jolene! There she is!!” Mahina cheered, jumping off of Nebby, only to be saved by Buffy, her Incineroar.
Buffy sighed while Mahina grinned up at her, radiating dumb bitch energy.
Annoyed, she let Mahina go, who fell to the ground with a soft thud. Undeterred, Mahina jumped back up, facing the named Jolene with a maniacal grin. She whipped out a dive ball from her bag, and pointing towards the Quagsire with her free hand, commanded Buffy: “Kick her ass BBG!”
Nebby floated towards Gladion, away from the showdown. The remaining hoard of Quagsire split like the sea to Kyogre’s wrath, giving Buffy and Jolene enough room to duke it out.
“Did she really do all of this for one Quagsire?” Gladion asked the moon deity. She mahina-pea’d in response, slightly nodding her head.
Jolene and Buffy exchanged blows, going head to head, never giving the other the upper hand. But with a finely-timed waterfall from Jolene, Buffy fainted.
Along with half of the observing Quagsire.
Gladion couldn’t believe what he was seeing.
His gaze shifted back to Nebby, who also appeared deadpan towards the situation.
“Maybe we should send the, uh, stragglers back?” He suggested. Nebby brightened instantly, summoning an ultra wormhole that vacuumed up every Quagsire but Jolene.
“Huh. Why didn’t I think of that before?” Mahina questioned, hand on her hip, gazing at Gladion in awe.
He slapped a hand to his face, willing himself not to groan. “Mahina, please just catch the Quagsire already. I want to go to bed.”
“Pssh, fine, killjoy.” She tossed a love ball, sending out her Sylveon, Pixel.
Ah, she shifted into serious mode. Gladion’s face reddened ever-so-slightly, thoughts racing through his mind as he watched her expression become more focused, mirroring her earned Champion title. Arceus, this must be why I’m attracted to her.
His brows furrowed. No, I did not think that.
Pixel made quick work of the Quagsire, using her ribbon feelers to thwack her into submission. With a grin Mahina threw the dive ball, and at three shakes, Jolene was officially caught.
Mahina let out a giddy squeal as she raced towards the ball, scooping it up and letting out Jolene. The water and ground type continued to stare at Gladion knowingly, who looked away, perturbed.
Another squeal, and Mahina had her arms wrapped around Jolene, singing out of key something along the line of Jolene stealing her man.
Huh.
Thinking the strange encounter was over, Gladion turned to finish up his business in the conservatory before retiring for the night.
He had a feeling Mahina would be at his heels, but he still wasn’t used to it.
“Whatcha doin’ Gladbabe?”
Another sigh passed his lips.
He had been tending to some orphaned Pokemon before she interrupted, trying to get them to sleep. To no avail.
He voiced that to Mahina, who hummed behind him. “I thought that would be the case,” she mused.
The rest of the walk, and elevator ride, was oddly peaceful. Mahina wasn’t chatting him up, which was unusual.
She was quiet.
Too quiet.
Shoving his suspicion to the back of his mind, he headed out towards the pond he was at not quite an hour ago. Silvally bounded ahead, which Mahina giggled at.
He stopped in front of the body of freshwater, coming face to face with the orphaned Wooper he had been looking after.
His jaw dropped as Mahina skipped to a stop beside him, letting out Jolene beside the two Wooper. The Quagsire took to them instantly, gently playing with them.
“I… noticed you hadn’t been getting sleep again,” Mahina mumbled, leaning on the railing that separated the walkways from the enclosures. Gladion watched her from the corner of his eye.
“Jolene basically volunteered to look after them,” Mahina continued, “Although, so did all those other Quagsire.”
Arceus, he almost wanted to kiss her.
“So you went a mile out of your way to save me a few nights’ sleep?”
“Of course.”
Something in Gladion snapped. Whether it was the lack of sleep, or whatever was bubbling pleasantly in his stomach and through his body, he wasn’t sure. But in a quick stride he had turned to face Mahina, hand reaching out to cup her cheek.
Her blush, under the moonlit sky, made his heart (almost) soar.
The next thing he knew, he felt his lips brush against hers - faintly. His heart skipped a beat, and he pulled away, coming to his senses.
Another look at Mahina’s serene expression made him toss his senses into the pond.
He shifted himself closer, leaning down once again to bridge the gap between them. Before he closed his eyes, he couldn’t help but chuckle at her tamato-hued face, warmth radiating between them.
She was so soft. Mahina, who had threatened to run over Faba with a pallet jack, still had a softness to her; and he was one of the few privy to it.
He slipped his free hand around her waist, pulling her even closer. He felt her arms wrap loosely around his neck, making him smile into the kiss.
Maybe he did have a thing for Mahina, after all.
