Ruby suggested I take some of my recent Unika clips and put them to that funny Square Up song i've been listening to a lot.

Last train home.

(Submas art)

I have not been in the pokemon/submas fandom since, like, 2022??? Welcome back, me, i guess. I will try to still post AA stuff every now and then, but sadly, the twins have consumed my brain yet again.

The idea behind the image is the train ride from wherever arceus dropped them off in unova (after emmet made a deal with him to take ingo back) back home.

Its the "last train home" because they will never be separated again. Its the last train they'll have to take where they had ever been separated. Its the last train till their forever home, eachother.

Making this was mainly a challenge for me since i hate backgrounds, but also as a reference to this plain sketch entitled similarly.

Consider this a pt 2, i guess? Idk.

I hope yall like it.

Okay, we're going to make this coherent because i am fresh off of the broadcasts and I can finally scream about my nightfall thoughts. specifically, about Itzal and Chazira being respectively saved and unable to be.

...I don't think they were ever going to be able to save Chazira.

We know that Dakkar and Kal are equal. They’ve both passed their healing thresholds, they're both known as the greatest healers in the land. (Which I have to say: very impressive, especially given they're both pretty young men by this point). They are both powerful. They're balanced, probably received the exact same training--they trained together.

It’s not that Dakkar wasn’t enough.

It’s that Chazira was too far gone.

Itzal had done tests! Itzal had some form of practice with it in a way Chazira hadn't! Chazira wasn't prepared for the blowback, and I think there's far too high a chance that that's why she was hit as hard as she was.

It was always going to be too late from the moment they first broke down the door. It was a flip of a coin, who would go for Chazira and who would go for Itzal. That shaped both Dakkar and Kal's lives from then on in ways they probably never expected. Mobilis in mobili, no turning back. This is it. They could never change what was about to happen.

(....I think about this a lot.)
