Ride of Your Life

Giacomo x Reader

Notes: my younger sibling gave me this idea, actually! Wrote this in about 15 minutes, starting, like, as SOON as they told me the idea. Kinda OoC. Your character is meant to be your character in-game.

"It'll be fun!"

Giacomo shook his head, taking a step back.

"I am NOT getting on that thing! Are you kidding?"

You rolled your eyes, gently scratching under your Raidon's chin. "No, I'm not. You were okay with the Starmobile, but draw the line at something that can jump?"

"Hmm…"

He shook his head, but stepped closer. "I actually value my safety, Y/n."

"That's bull."

He chuckled.

"Of course it's not! I was Student Council president for a while; put some rules in place that're still used today."

Raidon purred quietly, tilting their head at him.

"I've heard that some of 'em we're pretty stuffy."

He wrinkled his nose. "Yeah, so what? They put me in charge, then got ticked off when I tried to get a system set up. Wouldn't exactly call that a me problem."

"Whatever." You reached about again, trying to fight the urge to roll your eyes at his words. "Hop on."

He sighed, taking another step forward. "This is a terrible idea."

"So? If the Pokemon doesn't catch us, my phone will."

"Wha-"

You grabbed his hand, tugging him onto your Pokemon. Quickly hopping on in front of him, you chuckled.

"Grab on!"

"Whoa!"

He lurched forward as Raidon began moving, throwing his arms around your middle. You laughed, and could feel as he chuckled nervously against your back.

"Comfortable?"

He shifted, and you could feel his chin on your shoulder.

"'Bout as good as I'll get."

"Yeah? Then get your head offa there; don't want you to get hurt."

"Hurt- oh."

He pulled his head away, though you could feel him lean into your back some more. His fingers tightened slightly against your shirt, scrunching the fabric beneath his touch.

"Alright, Raidon!"

With no more instruction, the Pokemon leapt into the air. Giacomo tensed against your back, but you could feel him laughing as you landed.

Your ride jumped a few more times, seeming to hover in the air for a few seconds at the peak of massive leaps. Giacomo, at some point, had separated somewhat from your back, though he was still holding you by your shirt. Reaching up from the Pokemon, you squeezed one of his hands.

"Still a bad idea, mister-ex-student-council-prez?"

He chuckled, then began laughing harder again as Raidon spun around midair.

"Almost feels like Navi's Spin Out!"

Raidon landed finally, crouching down. You laughed with Giacomo, giggling dizzily as you slid off the Pokemon's back. He followed, collapsing onto his knees while laughing.

"I wasn't.. hah.. didn't expect 'ya to spin, buddy!"

Raidon churred, gently headbutting your chest.

"Hey now!"

Giacomo made his way up, gently holding Raidon's back for support.

"Wow."

"Yeah?"

He chuckled, leaning forward slightly. "Yeah."

"Never answered the question.."

He reached up, scratching beneath the Pokemon's chin the same way you had been.

"No.. not a bad idea. Thrill wise, at least. Safe, though..?"

You groaned quietly, shaking your head.

"Seriously?"

He laughed, offering you a small smile.

"Still not too bad.. probably 'cause you know what you're doing."

"Nah.." you began scratching under Raidon's chin as well, your fingers bumping into Giacomo's. "It's the partnership."

"Probably why I felt just as safe as I did while on the Starmobile."

You nodded, fingers brushing with his again. "Interpersonal connection."

"Of course."

His fingers twined gently with yours beneath the Pokemon's chin, thumb brushing against yours.

"...So."

"So?"

"..Can we do this again?"

You glanced up at him momentarily, before returning your attention to where your hands were connected.

"The ride, or just hanging out?"

"Both?"

Squeezing his hand gently, you smiled.

"Both sounds great."

A dump of recent NPCs and a few older ones.

Characters (shown in the illustration) from left to right: Raidon, Keira, Fleetway (AU), Mysta, Siegfried, Scorch, Brutus

Introducing my sonic ocs and the story they’re involved in! C: Hope you like them as much as I do!~

Ataraxia Overview

Note: This story is separate from the Sonic Universe & isn't involved with it in any way! Fleetway belongs to SEGA but this version of him is just an AU version for my story. The rest of these characters are my OCs!

A world war has taken place on the planet of Charis. The 6 nations are divided once more due to Zeinor's new leader's greed. An organization in Equx launches Project: ATARAXIA, recruiting many powerful allies to help put an end to this tiresome war and put Zeinor's corrupt high council back to their place.

There are 6 nations inhabiting different territories:

Zeinor: Lush Green Hills

Racoris: Badlands

Asin: Ocean

Equx: Rainforest

Igon: Tundra

Niani: Desert Chasms

OC Info

Runihura; or Raidon (to his friends), is a thorny devil who survived a raid upon his scorching desert of a home. Unlike most of his allies, he does not have any superpowers, yet still is regarded as equally important due to his proficiency at battle strategies. That doesn't mean he's completely helpless in combat either, as he makes good use of his arm blades and whatever abilities being a thorny devil give him. He hopes to one day take back his home from the nation that took over his homeland.

Keira is a weaponized hedgehog who was kidnapped and imprisoned in an underground lab by the high council (her nation's government lmao). During her imprisonment, Keira was tested on and as a result gained two powers: umbrakinesis (shadow manipulation) and umbra-electrokinesis (destructive lightning manipulation). Eventually she escaped during a containment breach caused by Fleetway (he's also a test subject :C), and fled to another continent to seek refuge. Once she was taken in by an organization that plans on ending the war (also is the reason behind everyone meeting each other), she honed her abilities and mastered the art of the scythe.

Fleetway is a hedgehog of noble status, but unfortunately inherited his bloodline's infamous ability: chaos manipulation. He was sent to the underground lab after his home was threatened to be destroyed by the high council. Like Keira, he too was tested on, and continually lost control of his powers (the side effects essentially send him into a state of insanity). As he grew stronger, he wrecked havoc upon the lab, and was transferred into Zeinor's military. Under the high council's control, he performed few mass genocides to earn their trust. Once he's no longer their dog on a leash, Fleetway plans to burn the corrupt high council to the ground.

Soleil; or Mysta, is a boisterous cat who's also an aspiring fashion designer. There isn't much to her background other than having failed at so many jobs she finally landed one that involved her making combat outfits. She designed some of the clothes for our main cast of characters and constantly drags them out to shop with her. Besides that, Mysta is adept at the art of magic (it's actually telekinesis but she's lazy to say it), but due to her... being a cat... you might see her use it in the most useless ways out of combat and work.

Siegfried is a tiger who hails from a land of eternal winter. Like Raidon, he fled his country once enemy troops seized his home. After witnessing his home's destruction from a distance, he vows to protect and support his allies and friends in order to never see them meet such a fate. Siegfried's natural kindness, cheekiness and sense of responsibility allows him to assume the older brother role for his friends. Besides this, he also excels at photokinesis. It sounds incredibly useless in combat, and you'd be right, as Siegfried assumes more of a support role in a fight. Blinding foes and creating light clones to momentarily distract them is his job - this is to allow for his comrades an opportunity to strike.

Scorch is a lion mercenary who was sent over to the organization to help increase their strength. Scorch can come off as overconfident and a bit of a hot-head sometimes (it doesn't help that he has "exploding fire manipulation" as an ability). Despite his pride and arrogance, he has a soft-spot for his friends and family. An experienced fighter, he's known in his homeland for his tough training (he trains his siblings but goes a lil easier on them HAHA). Everyone he trained have shown significant improvement, and Keira, who sought his combat guidance when she arrived at the organization, is no different.

Brutus is a thresher shark who hails from an underwater sea kingdom. Unlike the rest of the gang, he’s what we know as a “merman”. Like his kind, he is able to breathe in both underwater and on the surface — however, he has no legs, which is why he uses a pair of mechanical legs on land. Snarky and kind of an ass overall, Brutus brings life (chaos) to the table, and his comments tend to be… controversial. On the flip side, he’s extremely loyal, competent and brings his share of skills to the team, even though he likes provoking his teammates for fun.

PRIDE MONTH OC SHOWCASE : DAY 2

Today's OC: Raidon, who is Agender!

My first TV Head oc! Came right after Mr. Moon when I found out about HLVRAI and then found Sciencecore. He's a chaotic good mad scientist who tends to specialise in all areas, from chemistry to physics. They always work alone, and if they ever have an assistant, they don't tend to last very long.

Raidon has 2 stories! One with my friend Zen (who I call dad occasionally) and a private story with two other friends :) Raidons story with Zen involves his character, Apple, who is a quadraped TV Head and I do wanna talk about it here soon :) with his permission ofc. As for the private story, I probably won't share much if anything to be respectful and all that.

(Art on the left involves my good friend @noneer3141 !)

Fun fact: The slut badge idea comes from this Tumblr post! My best idea honestly-
