Morty/Falkner!

who is more likely to get injured doing small tasks – Morty tbh haha. He’s a bit spacier than the more methodical Falkner and is also likely to get distracted by a spirit while working on something.

who worries more about the other – Falkner. He’s prone to worrying in general and especially after losing Janine (even if it was something they both knew was coming long before it happened) he tends to fuss over Morty a lot. His biggest concern is something supernatural happening to his husband that he won’t be able/equipped to help with. (This habit of worrying extends to their children as well, he’s definitely a rather overprotective parent.)

who is more afraid about the other leaving them – Morty. While the whole situation was very complicated and is over and done with, Falkner did break up with him to marry Janine, when you break it down to bare basics, and that does still sting for Morty even now. While he knows that it’s extremely unlikely such a situation could arise for either of them now, the fact that it did happen places a seed of doubt in Morty’s mind sometimes.

who is more likely to leave (for any reason) – Probably Morty? After everything it’d take a pretty serious situation for either of them to leave the other, but Morty’s line of work (dealing with spirits/people’s ghost issues) is dangerous and he knows that Falkner isn’t the hugest fan of it. If he ever felt like he’d maybe attracted some bad attention from a powerful ghost/spirit or was putting his family in danger in any way, he’d leave for their sake. Falkner knows this and doesn’t like it at all, but does understand. It’s probably one of the most common things they argue about.

who is more likely to drunkenly confess – Falkner. While he’s usually on the more reserved side, he’s more open about his feelings when tipsy. Drinking usually just makes Morty fall asleep.

who is more likely to push the other away (for any reason) – It depends on when in their relationship we’re talking? If it’s earlier on, then Falkner, who tended to dislike showing ‘weakness’ in front of Morty and preferred being alone when he was having a bad time. However, as things progress he ends up being more clingy and while he never is the type to initiate talking about his feelings when he’s upset, he prefers if Morty were nearby or just holding him quietly when he needs it. Morty would be the more likely one then later on, since sometimes things can be overwhelming for him between his empathy and his spiritual awareness and he just needs some alone time.

who picks fights more often – Falkner. He tends to start arguments more just since he speaks his mind more openly than Morty does, so if his husband is doing something he finds objectionable he’ll say it outright, even if it leads to an argument.

who usually apologizes first – Morty. Even if he doesn’t know what he’s apologizing for. If he senses that Falkner is upset, he’ll usually apologize, which Falkner finds quite annoying since why apologize if you don’t even know if you did anything? But at least it usually leads to Falkner talking about why he’s upset, and if he knows he started the argument/fight he’ll typically apologize first since he’s quick to anger quick to cool.

who is more likely to withhold their feelings for the other – Morty. He knows he’s a bit… odd and intense in a way that a lot of people would probably find off-putting, so he’d rather wait for someone he was interested in to make the first move. (Which is probably why he attracts people like Falkner and Jasmine who are indeed the type to make the first move if they think they have a shot.)

who is more likely to lash out at the other – Falkner. Though that’s not to say Morty doesn’t have his moments, especially when he’s stressed and/or overwhelmed.

who gets more jealous – Falkner. He went through a lot to end up where he is now, finally married to Morty, so anything or anyone that he thinks threatens that… (Morty, on the other hand, despite the one who was in a situation where the man he loved was married to someone else, just isn’t the type to get jealous. He mainly just felt sad about himself during that time period and tried to move on and wish Falkner the best.)

who is more likely to support the other in a relationship with someone else “as long as they’re happy” – MORTY MORTY MORTY. It already happened earlier in their relationship haha. (Though in that case it was a bit of a situation of “As long as you’re happy, Falkner, I’ll support yours and Janine’s relationship.” “But it’s an arranged marriage, Morty, and Janine said she doesn’t mind if we keep seeing each other.” “No it’s ok, I understand, you don’t have to make concessions for little old me I’ll be able to move on, please, be happy with her.” “……… for an empath you sure are dense sometimes.”)

Who’s your favorite family from each region?

This is a pretty difficult question since for generally my “favorite” family is the one I’m working the most on at any given time, so the answer would change. I can answer for who I’m enjoying working on the most at this point in time though.

Kanto: I haven’t really worked in depth on any Kanto families recently, but I’d say right now I’m feeling very fond of the NamelessShipping fam. I’ve been having a lot of fun with Roy and Sage’s dynamic in particular, as antagonistic siblings is always fun. I also like how they both have some of Green’s arrogance, since cocky characters are fun to work with.

Johto: Hands down the HonorShipping family just since they have so much drama. A very close second is Whitney, Ethan, and Lance’s family, since there’s a lot of fun dynamics going on there as well. I think the sheer outrageous soap-opera levels of drama in the former family are what make me like it more though, as well as how quirky all the kids are.

Hoenn: Probably a tie between TensionShipping and ContestQueenShipping at the moment. ContestQueen will always be my forever Hoenn OTP, so they’re going to be a favorite no matter what, but I’ve been having so much fun with Drew and Harley’s family (and their dynamics with Lisia and May’s family) that I feel like they deserve a shoutout as well.

Sinnoh: The BrokenShipping family is a forever favorite just since it’s one of my weirdest ships. It was basically an in-universe crackship to start out and then the more I thought about it the more I thought it would be great. They’re an unconventional family but one I love working on. Shout-out/runner up goes to the ComaShipping family though since how could I not love Paul and Ash and their goth babies.

Unova: I know this is kind of cheating since it’s like five families but… the Montfort family. All of them. I don’t know how it got so big but all of them are so much fun to work with and I’ve just put some of my most effort into worldbuilding Unova that they’re kind of my babies. Even if some are trash babies like Grimsley and Hymnia and Mindy. And while this isn’t set in stone yet… there’s a good chance the family’s going to be expanding once I incorporate Galar 😉

Kalos: PerfectWorldShipping. Hands down. I have… trouble with Kalos, mainly due to lack of inspiration, so I think it’s probably no wonder that the couple/family with a convoluted story and angst and drama is the one I like best. Florian’s one of my older fankids as well and while he’s changed a bit over the years he’s still one I’m very fond of. I really like thinking of him and his dads being soft together.

Alola: Another region I find myself having a bit more trouble with, but I’d say maybe SnowLilyShipping? Mainly just since they start out very typical but end up being very unconventional with their half-alien meme son, sort-of a zombie son, and then adorable baby daughter. Another fun one is the NineIronShipping fam (Guzma/Molayne/Kahili) just since it’s full of shenanigans and all three kids are gremlins.

And then I have some other regions, but those only have one-two families each so I’ll exclude them. Honestly I think it’s just become obvious that the families I tend to enjoy working with are the ones with more drama/unconventional elements. That’s not to say I don’t enjoy the more typical families – I do immensely! It’s just that when it comes down to picking favorites, I tend to go with the ones like that. Really, this AU is more of a personal/self-indulgent project than anything, which is why things get over the top or dark sometimes. I simply want to explore lots of different ideas I find interesting and use this world as a way to do so.

Part 2 of this ask.

10 Facts About Yuusuke Hasumi

  1. Yuusuke is actually his traditional/Japanese name. His given name is Lyndon, but he dislikes this name and thus rarely uses it. There is a small list of people he allows to call him by his given name, but it’s a privilege reserved only for his closest friends and family. And Caleb. Who calls him ‘Lyndie’ despite Yuusuke’s numerous protests. Yuusuke has just had to learn to accept Caleb’s nicknames. His other nickname is ‘Yuu’, but only Alba calls him that and he doesn’t tolerate it from anyone else, even Caleb.
  2. While Morty had primary custody of him growing up, Yuusuke would still visit Jasmine every month for a weekend. He tended to dislike these visits though, since he doesn’t do well in social interactions with people he doesn’t know well, so once he’s a teenager he stops seeing her as much. He doesn’t dislike his mother, he just doesn’t want to deal with unwanted visits.
  3. He has a passion for the sword, having learned kendo from a young age. He often carries around an ancestral family sword both for the comfort of having it at his side and for the intimidation factor since he hates social interaction.
  4. He has Jasmine’s brown eyes and Morty’s blond hair, though his hair has a similar texture to his mother’s rather than being wavy like Morty’s. He wears it long in a low ponytail and takes his hair-care very seriously.  
  5. He gets along with all his siblings differently. He’s very close with Neal, though from an outsider perspective their relationship seems to be mostly Neal teasing Yuusuke and Yuusuke snapping at him. They really do care deeply for each other, however. He’s initially awkward around Mavis, Branwen and Cormag, but after realizing that they look up to him a lot, he tries to be a good role model and spend more time with them. He hates Kestrel. The two are probably equally misanthropic and so they just rub each other the wrong way. He’d prefer to not have to see her and will leave the room if she’s there (and she’ll do the same if she finds him.)
  6. He met Alba through Draco of all people. Yuusuke and Draco are sort-of friends, and Draco knows Alba through his father, as Lance and Cynthia are friends from being Champion. Draco introduced Alba to Yuusuke when she was visiting from Sinnoh and it was basically love at first sight for both of them. Their relationship is a bit confusing to Yuuske’s friends and family since seeing him do anything romantic is baffling, but they’re very much in love.
  7. Though his default mode is ‘irritated’, those who know him well enough can pick out when Yuusuke’s annoyance is real or just feigned. Around people he likes, he’ll be more sarcastic and less scathing. Knowing the difference generally means being close enough to him to be a friend.
  8. To get away from dealing with people, he often likes to go camp out in the woods for a weekend and just spend time training his pokémon without having to interact with anyone.
  9. He has a surprisingly high alcohol tolerance and enjoys hard liquor. However he sees this as going against his ‘image’ and drinks in secret, even though he’s of age. One time Branwen begged him to let her try a bit of his stash when she caught him drinking so he offered her a small sip, which then just knocked her out. He’s not told anyone of this incident since it embarrasses him.
  10. He and Alba have a young daughter named Nadia, who is just a baby. Yuusuke is extremely protective of her and has threatened people for ‘looking at her too much.’ Alba is good at calming down his over-protectiveness however, as she’s got a bit of a gift for knowing just what to say. He and Alba named their daughter together, with Yuusuke suggesting they give her a ‘hopeful’ name and Alba suggesting Nadia as it means ‘hope.’

What cause to Morty and Jasmine to divorced ?

Morty and Jasmine were actually never married. Jasmine’s parents are very traditional and would not have approved of her relationship with Morty because he is a dark mage (which are considered bad luck in Johto.) At this time, Jasmine still cared about what her parents thought of her, so she and Morty kept their relationship a secret. When Jasmine became pregnant with Yuusuke, her parents inevitably found out and they were not pleased. In the end, mostly due to stress caused by pressure from Jasmine’s parents, the couple broke up before Yuusuke was born. From the start, it was agreed that Morty would have custody of their son since he would likely inherit the same magic as his father. Yuusuke would still visit his mother about once a month for a weekend growing up, however. 

While Jasmine tried to convince herself that breaking up with Morty was for the best, this was the main catalyst for her falling out with her parents and trying to cut them out of her life. She decided that she would live her life by her rules and not just listen to her parents when their advice went against what she wanted. Her falling for and marrying Cress (himself both a foreigner and a dark mage) wouldn’t have been possible if she had not chosen to change her relationship with her parents due to them leading to her breaking up with Morty. So, in that sense, she is a bit thankful that she broke up with him since it did help her change her life for the better in the long run. The two remain good friends despite being exes.
