Summary
“They emote the same.” He pointed out, “It’s in the eyes.”
The two adults on either side of him shared a look.
“He isn’t incorrect.” Emmet said.
“Mmm… I see it.” Skyla pointed between them, before copying their shared frown. “Scowl-y”
“Skyla, that was rude.” Elesa said to her wife, who just shrugged.
“And they’re great anyway!” She defended, “Ingo’s loud and Charlie’s got their… tells.”

Incidentally Isaac is trying to find the Lab's professor round the time their family came to visit, bringing up some interesting conversation as his parental figure lets slip some of their past.

Summary
Contrary to the heat leaking from all sides, nearly enough to burn Isaac's skin, they felt a chill bleed over their body, and they pressed their chin to the boy's hair.
Letting out a soft exhale, they dropped into the oddity that dwelled around them as they felt something shift-
"Finally." They thought, looking up to glance at the shadow over them.
--
Following the (planned) attack and destruction of the Laventon Pokémon Research Lab, Professor Hedgeworth and their student Isaac get trapped, the former restabilising a less than blessed connection to get the two out safely. (They're eldritch your honour)

Summary
“Uhm… help please” They sounded a bit defeated, he tried and failed to hold in a snort.
He assisted in removing the undershirt and saw… well, scars. But a concerning amount for someone their age. He stared a bit at them.
“Yeah I know. It’s a lot.” They shrugged best they could.
--
Charlie picks up the wrong clothing for a winter in the Coronet Highlands, and suffers a fall. Twice. Triggering unknowingly repressed memories that keep them from asking for help from Warden Ingo until it's forced upon them by the concerned man.

Title from Keep Talking by Pink Floyd
“Thank you.” They said, lifting their head to cradle the mug with their hands. After lightly blowing on it, they sipped it. “Oh wow, this is good.” They exclaimed, sipping a bit more.
“Careful, it is verrrrrry hot.”
They let out a noise of confirmation yet continued to sip it, a minute later they pulled back from it, face unhappy but overly amused.
“Shit- I burnt myself.”
--
Emmet wakes up too early and ends up discussing Charlie's discomfort. More trauma gets exposed as it does when Arceus whisks away a 14 year old and makes it so they cannot die.
TW // Casual Discussion of death and resurrection, swears, discussion of Volo's plot in the end-game, discussion of injuries and scars

Summary
An AU I made while getting annoyed at the boring plot of Sword/Shield, thinking about the amount of trauma the MC of PLA would go through and wanting to revisit Pokémon Black/White in a new way after getting fixated on Submas for a year.
Plot and characters have been made on and off within the past two years, and are still very much rough. Works aren't chronological and may not fit together exactly until I make one full work of the plot.

Summary
Eight years have passed since Blackwater, Saint Denis, and the fall of the van der Linde gang. The survivors are trying to make a life for themselves – some moving on to nobler pursuits, some circling back like carrion birds to the scores they left behind.
And outside a town called Purgatory, West Elizabeth, a man wakes up without a scrap of memory or a name, haunted by a black wolf and a golden stag.

Summary
Arthur is gone.
It’s nothing the gang ain’t accustomed to. But a peace talk with Colm sounded like a prelude to catastrophe, despite all of Dutch’s placating and Micah’s cajoling.
And Hosea Matthews will have none of it.

Summary
Hosea fell ill in the days before the Blackwater Ferry job, so Dutch decided to take Arthur along. After all, what harm could it do to have an extra gun along?
A lot. It could do a lot of harm in all the wrong places.
