How they first met: The two of them first met as new hires to a now-defunct Hoenn villainous team called Team Ventus, who wanted to try and summon Rayquaza in a plan to take over Hoenn. Maxie was hired as a scientist and Archie was more of a general grunt. The two became quite good friends while working for Team Ventus and both agreed to leave the team when their plans started to go under. It was only afterwards that the two began disagreeing on their next course of action and became rivals.
Where their first date was: While they didn’t consider it a date at the time, Maxie invited Archie to accompany him and Kiran to an open-air market in Lilycove in the hopes of continuing to repair their friendship. There was definite romantic tension to the whole thing though, and looking back the two consider it their first date.
When they had their first kiss: The two were just hanging out by themselves in the old Aqua base in Lilycove (where the two teams had moved in together) when Archie leaned in to kiss Maxie. Maxie was initially surprised, but he certainly didn’t protest. Neither of them had outright admitted romantic feelings up to that point, so this kiss (which soon turned into quite a makeout session) marked the beginning of their ‘official’ romance. The rest of the two teams (go by Team Aether now) thought it was about time their bosses just got together already.
Who cooks: Maxie usually cooks! Archie is good at the basics, but most of his recipes require pre-prepared components. Maxie is quite good at cooking and picks up new recipes well. Kiran likes both their cooking though and would always insist Archie cook when she wanted something a bit unhealthier for dinner.
Who proposed: It was actually Maxie who ‘proposed’ but it was incredibly informal. He and Archie had been living together and dating for a while, and one afternoon while Maxie was going over expenses for Team Aether, he made an off handed comment about how things would be easier if he and Archie got married – in terms of tax benefits and guardianship of Kiran and the like. Archie just casually responded back, “Well, why don’t we?” and that was that. 
The dominate one: Archie for certain, though when Maxie gets a new idea in his head, he’ll be the one to take control to try it out.
Their favorite pastime together: While Archie loves big group activities with all of Team Aether, Maxie prefers quieter pastimes. As such, their favorite thing to do together is usually going hiking or to some secluded nature spot since, despite their differences, they both love spending time outdoors.
Who kissed who first: Archie kissed Maxie!
Who is the flirt: Archie for certain. Maxie is a terrible flirt.
Who is the romantic: Also Archie. He knows Maxie loves him, but Maxie’s idea of romance is unconventional at best. Archie is more of the ‘candles and rose petals’ type of romantic, though he can go a bit overboard at times.
Who wakes up first: Maxie usually, though Archie somehow never fails to wake up soon after Maxie does. He likes to joke that Maxie is his alarm clock.
Who comforts who the most: They both comfort each other about equally, each with their own methods to cheer the other up.
The cuddler: Archie! He’s pretty big on physical affection, though Maxie will cuddle up to him if they’re near by. Not quite cuddling, but more like just sitting very close so they’re pressed up together.
The big spoon: Archie, usually.

How they first met: Their first meeting was when Barry tried to convince Dawn to go into the tall grass without their own pokémon and were stopped by Professor Rowan. Lucas was, of course, assisting the professor and exchanged introductions with Barry and Dawn at the time. They don’t get to know each other that well until after the Galactic fiasco, however.
Where their first date was: Barry asked Lucas out when the two met up at the Resort Area after quite a while stewing in his crush. They went to a small food stand to grab something to go and spent the time wandering around the town, chatting about their interests.
When they had their first kiss: They had their first kiss on their fourth date. Barry was walking Lucas back to Rowan’s Lab after the date so he could finish up some work, but before he went inside, Lucas gave Barry a quick peck on the lips then dashed inside, leaving Barry bright red and flustered outside.
Who cooks: Both of them! The two are both pretty good cooks, but have different styles, so they like to mix it up by alternating who cooks when. This also helps since they both have pretty busy schedules, so neither one has to worry about having to always cook. They’ll order takeout if both are too tired to cook though – pizza is a family favorite.
Who proposed: While Barry was the one to first ask Lucas out, Lucas was the one to propose. He went all out, too – took Barry to a fancy restaurant in Jubilife, got a nice meal, then went for a walk. He proposed on one of the most famous overlooks in the city, which has beautiful views over all the lights. Barry was so excited he tackle-hugged Lucas and nearly knocked the two of them over the edge of the outlook.
The dominate one: The two of them are pretty evenly split on who is more dominant. Barry tends to be more impulsive and is the one to encourage Lucas to try new and wild things, while Lucas is more dominant in the reason department, usually finding more obscure activities for them to do together. They compliment each other very well that way.
Their favorite pass time together: Exploring new places. It could be the wilderness, a new restaurant or shop in the city, or simply a new activity or hobby. Both of them love trying new things, whether it ends up as a new favorite place/thing or a total disaster. If it goes badly, at least they have a good story.
Who kissed who first: Lucas kissed Barry!
Who is the flirt: Lucas, most of the time. Barry has his moments, but Lucas is very smooth in his flirtations and can compliment and flirt with Barry just as casually as regular conversation. Barry tends to get flustered when it comes to overly romantic or flirtatious gestures, so even if he tries, he’ll end up embarrassing himself with his own comments. Lucas likes to tease him.
Who is the romantic: Also Lucas. Just like he can casually flirt, he’s great at being casually romantic, setting up candlelit dinners, buying flowers for Barry, things like that. When Barry wants to be romantic, however, he goes all out. One time he got skywriting for their anniversary that said ‘Lucas + Barry 4 Ever’. Lucas definitely laughed at that but he was so charmed he couldn’t help but adore how earnest his husband was.
Who wakes up first: Barry, usually. Lucas is quite the deep sleeper and needs to set multiple alarms to make sure he wakes up on time. Barry tends to ping awake early in the morning and gets up to make himself a cup of coffee or a light breakfast. He’s learned not to try and wake Lucas though, since his husband can be really grumpy in the mornings.
Who comforts who the most: Barry is the more emotional one who tends to need more consoling and comforting, so Lucas usually takes that role in the relationship. He’s quite good at pampering to help Barry feel better. All the same, whenever Lucas is upset or feeling down, Barry is great at cheering him up with a cheesy movie, a tub of ice cream and a funny story.
The cuddler: Barry for sure. He’s very physically affectionate and likes to wrap himself around Lucas whenever they’re cuddling or sharing space together. Lucas compares Barry to a Chimchar clinging to a tree, which Barry finds a little bit insulting considering Chimchar was his starter and all. Lucas loves how affectionate Barry is though, considering he likes being cuddled, so it all works out.
The big spoon: Usually Barry! Since Lucas likes being cuddled and Barry likes cuddling their spooning situation is almost always Barry as the big spoon and Lucas as the little spoon. Barry usually ends up wrapping his arms and legs around Lucas like a Komala as well. 

2, 12, and 22 for Draco (for the ask meme thing?) ✨

2. Their emotional/moral weak spots

Draco’s biggest weak spot is that he isn’t as in control as he thinks he is. Draco likes to believe that he’s in full control of his emotions, dismissing any unwanted outbursts as aberrations. This leads to him not realizing how badly he can hurt others, because he thinks he’s being reasonable and normal for himself, while anyone else would see that he was acting emotionally and irrationally. Draco is actually very self-conscious, so he has a tendency to block out criticism in an effort to avoid taking a hit to his self-esteem. Essentially, he tries to cope with everything by retreating further inward to his own fantasy-perception of the world, which just amplifies the image of a callous, angry, jerk that many people see him as.

While he does hurt others’ feelings and breaks quite a few hearts, he still has a moral compass, of course, actually a quite strict one. Draco doesn’t tolerate injustice from others (which is quite ironic) and will go out of his way to stop a crime from happening if he sees it, not caring about what others might be doing to help. As a result, he can be quite reckless and put himself in danger. Draco has been more aware of these weak spots more recently, however, since he started therapy and has steps to avoid falling back into the same bad habits and destructive thought patterns as he used to.

12.  Grudges and vendettas

Draco can hold a mean grudge. His most significant one is against Ethan, his father. He resents Ethan for being a part of his life, yet never revealing his true relationship to his son, as if Draco couldn’t easily tell that Ethan was his father. He also has a tendency to concoct wild scenarios regarding Ethan’s relationship with Lance, most of them as full on scandalous soap opera as he can think up. He doesn’t like how, when Ethan found out that Draco knew their relationship, he tried to become a father figure to him. Part of this is that Draco is very close with Lance and sees Ethan as intruding on their father-son relationship, another part is that he hates that he was deceived, even if his parents thought it was for the best. Despite Ethan’s many efforts to try and make amends with Draco, he remains stubborn in being distant with his father.

Draco also holds somewhat of a grudge against his exes, for more of an irrational reason than his grudge against Ethan. A lot of the problems with Draco’s past relationships was a failure to communicate, mainly on his end. He would have been only interested in a casual, no-strings-attached, short term relationship, but would be oblivious to if his partner had more serious intentions. When Draco eventually decided to move on from the relationship, his partners were often upset that he didn’t share their feelings or communicate what he wanted from the relationship properly, and there were a lot of really bad fights and inevitable bad blood. While he can look back on his past relationships and see that he was at fault, Draco also holds somewhat of a grudge against his exes, especially the ones who now hate him. He sort of thinks that, since he’s been able to move past the breakup with minimal hard feelings, they should too. “Now that I’ve turned over a new leaf, can’t bygones be bygones?” This grudge is the main reason he doesn’t inform Cypress that he has a son, which later comes back to bite him in the ass.

22. 

People who’ve influenced them greatly

Probably the most important person to Draco growing up was his father, Lance. As his only (to his knowledge) parent, Lance was the pillar of Draco’s world, his role-model, his inspiration, his protector. Draco’s sense of justice comes from Lance, as does his temper. The two are quite similar, in no small part due to their close relationship. Despite all his grudges and dislike for his home during his ‘Wild Years’, Draco never resents Lance. He understands why Lance is overprotective of him and indulges the man, even when he sends one of his Dragonite to check in on Draco when’s he travelling the world every once and a while. Draco knows he wouldn’t be the person he is without his father, and he will freely admit Lance is basically his hero.

The other major influence in Draco’s life was a briefer encounter. While he hated the lecture he got from Maia at the time, losing to her and hearing her opinion on his character was the first event that prompted him to reexamine his behavior and realize that he maybe needed to change his ways and/or get some help. It wasn’t immediate, but she put the thought in his head, which later helped him when he decided to return home and settle down. Draco later writes Maia a thank-you, and she actually flies out to Johto to see him in person and express how glad she is he’s doing better. Of course, she probably won’t ever be on friendly terms with Draco since he hurt her brother, but she respects him for making the effort to better himself, which is no small feat.

I decided to add yet another new fankid. She’s the daughter of Nanu and the Alola mom, called Clarissa in this AU. Her name is Nanala, which means ‘sunflower.’ She’s part of the older group of Alola fankids and is a dark-type trainer like her father. She wants to be kahuna like him one day. Nanala also has some involvement in Interpol, though I’m not sure how yet. She’s currently travelling the world.

My bias is too strong, so Draco with 4, 9, 15, 16, 20?

Best places to kiss on their body

Draco prefers to be the dominant one in relationships, so perhaps as a result he can be quite sensitive to others kissing him. His weak spot is the entire region from his jaw to his collarbone, so any kisses there tend to make him a bit weak in the knees. Addie likes to joke he must have secret fantasies about sleeping with a vampire considering how much he likes being kissed/bitten on the neck. Draco finds this ridiculous and actually starts wearing high-collared jackets and shirts once he realizes his weak spot, both to ‘protect’ it and cover up the inevitable marks he gets there. Aside from his neck, his second most sensitive kissing spot is his thighs, but he rarely lets anyone take advantage of that.

9. Humiliating memories

Though he likes to appear confident and put together, Draco is actually quite self-conscious, so he has a number of embarrassing (even if only to him) memories. One of them is when, during his first hookup with Florian, the other man completely turned the tables on him and ended up being the top. Draco was so flustered by the entire situation that he lost all composure and (in his opinion) made a fool of himself. He was embarrassed enough that he just left Florian with no word for a few weeks after that until Flor contacted him again. Then the fact that Draco agreed to hookup again was another embarrassment since he had been determined not to give in and do something humiliating again.

Another embarrassing memory is when he was in Hoenn and got into a fight with Maia about his treatment of her younger brother, Apollon. Draco was confident he could beat the older woman in a pokémon battle and made a big show of how he was going to crush her without breaking a sweat, but in the end he got utterly trounced by her, only managing to take down two of her pokémon before being defeated. The loss was so hard on him and so humiliating that he locked himself in his hotel room for a few days until Maia came by to give him some stern life advice, though that was embarrassing for Draco as well, since not only did he lose horribly to her, he also ended up getting lectured like a little kid.

15. What it takes to make them cry

Draco cries surprisingly easily, mostly when he’s frustrated or angry. He hates this trait and suppresses it whenever he can, often going off by himself if he feels the tears starting up. He hates anything that contradicts the ‘suave, aggressive, confident, bad boy’ persona he’s built up around himself, and that includes crying when he’s upset. When he’s around people he trusts though, like family, he’s a bit freer with his emotions, and Addie has found him in tears because he couldn’t open a jar before. She finds it rather endearing, that there’s a somewhat sensitive guy under all the rough exterior.

16. Dark secrets/’skeletons in the closet’

Draco has two big secrets, so to speak. The first is that he found out Ethan was his father when he was fairly young, but never told anyone he knew. Lance and Ethan wanted to keep Draco’s parentage a secret to avoid conflict, but Draco was able to figure out that his dad’s close friend who was always around and also looked a bit like him was his father pretty quickly. Draco immediately assumed the worst case and most dramatic scenarios he could think of as to why his parents kept his parentage a secret, so he grew to be somewhat resentful of Ethan as a result, refusing to talk with him and the like. This does eventually get cleared up when Draco’s older, however, though he never has a super close relationship with Ethan, despite the latter’s efforts.

The other big secret is that Noel’s other father is Cypress. Now, the majority of Draco’s family and friends back in Johto know vaguely who Noel’s other parent is, but Draco never tells Cypress. He doesn’t seem to realize the irony of the situation, that it’s similar to what happened between him and Ethan. Cypress will eventually find out he has a son, however, and when he does there will a be lot of drama for everyone involved.

20. What-ifs/Alternate Timelines

The original incarnation of Draco had a completely different personality and backstory to the current one. He was the son of Lance and his random oc wife and was meant to be a foil to Adelinda. Adelinda was the serious, no-nonsense cousin and Draco was meant to be more laid back and mischievous, sort of a ‘prankster bro’ type of character. Adelinda would be annoyed that her easygoing cousin was the clan heir instead of her and the two would have a conflict over that, though Draco would eventually prove he was a competent leader despite his unorthodox methods.

As Lance’s story changed, however, so did Draco’s. The rough order of when I added things went something like 1) What if Lance’s wife was dead, 2) What if Lance had another kid before Draco who was also dead, 3) What if Lance had a tragic childhood and was the kid of a dragon-god, 4) What if Lance’s dead wife was Liza, 5) What if there was a Faller Noelle? The former Draco just didn’t make sense after all these changes, so the moody disaster man we have today came to be. 

Branwen & Cormag

Chibi sketches of my HonorShipping twins, Branwen and Cormag. The two were the result of a one night stand Falkner and Morty had not long after Falkner’s wife, Janine died (he was grief-stricken and a bit irrational). They initially grew up in Ecruteak with Morty, but later on when Morty and Falkner start officially dating, they travel between Ecruteak and Fuschia, where Falkner lives with his and Janine’s daughters, Kestrel and Mavis. These two are the travelling partners of Celeste through both Johto and Kanto.

Branwen is the older twin and is obsessed with the paranormal. She considers herself a ‘ghost-hunter’ and likes to go out of her way to find spirits and get them to show themselves – usually by making them angry. She’s oblivious to how dangerous her actions might be and can be a bit dense due to her one-track mind.

Cormag is the younger twin, though he acts like an older brother to Branwen most of the time. He’s her impulse control and, when he can’t prevent her from doing something dangerous (which is most of the time), he’ll go along with her to make sure she doesn’t get herself killed and/or possessed. He’s a bit apathetic in nature and rarely smiles, though he claims that he’s just as emotive as anyone else (this is not true).

Branwen is a fan of the Kimono Girls and traditional aesthetics, so she makes Cormag dress in traditional clothes like her, with a matching color scheme. He doesn’t care either way. She bought them matching scarves so they could look like Morty.
