//So yeah I'm doing a thing and stuff. I wanna... genuinely try my best to actually tell a potentially interesting, engaging story with an OC I've held near and dear to my heart for the last decade and a half. Draco's my pure-hearted little boy who can do no wrong but embodies the autism creature to a T.
I will try my damn hardest to keep consistent activity on this blog unlike many other muses I just kinda get a big boon of energy for, then immediately drop. Thank goodness I've had this OC for as long as I have, eh? Means I'm actually invested.
The plot will be rather slow burn, a clue here, an event there, but I want to tell a story that other people can not only get invested in, but potentially even turn in different directions. Draco is a very malleable person who trusts more than he should, so pointing out the flaws in his thinking or giving him guidance towards certain choices can drastically affect my plans here. And I want that.
It will start with low stakes. It will steadily ramp up to rather personally dangerous "medium" stakes, and the planned climax's many outcomes will have SELF-CONTAINED high stakes that cannot, nor will not affect anything but Draco's own canon. They will be world-changing, not world-destroying. Whether that's a good or bad thing is grounds for you all to find out more through Draco's experiences.
Another blog will be made to supplement the plot here later on as well. I Have Plans... and I hope you all enjoy those plans!
//Well HECK i got BAPPED by like three people, one on @hisuianhellion and twice here. Which kinda blows my mind a bit. So! Favor returning time!

A whole smorgasbord of folks because variety is the spice of life for my browsing experience and I love seeing all the arcs, big and bombastic or personal and casual as they are with everything inbetween. Pokemon IRL's biggest strength is just how little people care about where a character comes from, so long as you're having fun with other folks.
Love you guys, hope to keep seeing you on my dash.
Having trouble concentrating on my work. Since. Like. Here. Also... watching a dude who reviews fruits and berries around the world. There are so many weird ones.
[Video ID: It clearly wasn't taken by Draco. By the sound of the snickering behind the camera, it has a distinct "vui"-ish sound of Icarus the Eevee as they watch Draco the Zangoose dash back and forth on all fours. He's got the zoomies! He keeps bouncing about, flapping his upper paws with a happy little grin and taking right off before-- oops, that's a missed jump into the couch. Thunk.
The Eevee hops over to check if he's okay, the Zangoose seemingly a bit dazed but still smiling a bit at them as he readjusts his glasses, only for Cyndra the Shinx to step into frame. As the Eevee's ear pivots to listen before they turn to face the Shinx, the Shinx notices the camera, glances over with a slightly unimpressed expression, signs rather firmly "No" and turns the camera off as the Eevee sheepishly looks off to the side.]
"There are no weak Pokémon, only weak trainers" Or, get this: What if it didn't matter? What if we did not base our understanding of a Pokémon's value entirely on their capability in battle. You can like a Pokémon that can't win. It's ok.
fun fact about snakes is that they don't always coil into a defensive posture
a lot of the time it's just to conserve their body heat due to being coldblooded and because it's safer for them to have an easy to adjust posture against predators
an ekans coiled up in that loose but sorta swirly pattern tends to mean it didn't feel super threatened
sometimes they even battle in that posture because they know it's not an actual danger
