Even before her cousin was deep-fried, Madd never put much stock in appearances. She knew what her mom looked like without makeup. And, a lot of handsome people were just rats. She wasn’t perfect. Nobody was. Her frame wasn’t exactly feminine. And those arms? Made for an Oranguru. He wasn’t the only one uncomfortable with exposed skin.

The guy’s voice wasn’t too bad either. When he finished, her shoulders lifted in a shrug. “It just means our clocks are broken the same way. Pretty cool.” Seeing the poor guy’s uncomfortable expression, she began to wonder if she’d messed up. Maybe a guy like this could be killed with kindness? Or, at least, by someone trying to be a decent person. The man’s list almost made her snort. “Work’s a tough mistress, huh?”

At the question, the redhead nodded. “I—” Before she could answer, however, a stray volleyballer butted into the awkward distance between them. “Watch it!” With a glare, the former debutante waited for Clumsy Hands to scramble away. After that, she resumed what she’d been saying. “I watch a lot of bad movies. Sometimes I pick up a book or remember I have a bike.” Mostly B-horror movies, especially classic stuff. The worse the color and audio, the better. “And, when I’m feeling crazy, I host bingo at the old folks home.”

Her cheeks flared red. Whatever cool points she racked up really were dwindling by the second. “And, before you laugh, it’s like an MMA fight in there.” A lot of people lost dentures.

ROCKET HOLIDAY PARTY ❄️ (MEGA SOCIAL)

[attr="class","samjermain"]

Madeline wasn’t sure why she bothered coming. This party was like all the fancy meet and greets her father dragged her to growing up. It always came with stiff new dresses and rock-hard flats. The middle-class man often displayed her like a piece of meat at a butcher shop. But, for some reason, she thought an anarchist’s ball would be different. Maybe there’d be no divisions and just a ton of comfort. The food would probably be pretty good too.

If she were going to pull the trigger on the leaving Rocket thing finally, maybe it’d be a nice hoorah. A figurative tip of her figurative hat. Dressed in a shapely black dress with lace covering most of her ample cleavage, Madd couldn’t shake a feeling of discomfort. This thing gave big uncanny valley vibes. War criminals were dancing with janitors and wearing stupid Christmas sweaters. People who made a living blowing shit up were browsing the hors-d’oeuvres with the indecision of a child at a dollar store.

The place was gorgeous. But so were her family photos. This was just a tarp strung over a pit of spikes. Realizing she was standing there like a goon, the redhead pushed herself forward a few steps. “Come on, Yakky.” Already four deviled eggs deep, the badger forced himself to follow his trainer to the glimmering tree. “I hope somebody likes fishing.” A claw lifted to gently poke at one of the ornaments. “!?” His eyes widened as a crystal snapped off—this he palms with a panicked expression.

When the woman turns around, he's disappeared into the crowd in search of glue or a garbage can. His red eyes catch on the boba stand. With a swallow, he tiptoes to where Xiura stands and stays in land. This lady seemed pretty. And, he'd never met a mean person drinking boba.

Grinning as she passed by Shred Zeppelin—a former fan—she looked around the room. “Nice tie, quicksilver.” She shouted, her excitement authentic. Not seeing a familiar face, she moved toward a balcony. It’d give her some time to relax. Maybe she could enjoy the view?

Instead, she found Zev Harcourt. Already surrounded by sharks, she figured she might as well go out by Megalodon. Her flat shoes carried her to the edge of the casino. Copper eyes lifted to the horizon. “Not a party guy, huh?” Even when it was just drunken revelry, she’d never been able to enjoy it. She preferred chilling at home. The sight of smoke draws her eyes.

She hasn’t smoked since she got back from alternate Galar. She’s reformed. That shit isn’t any good for her. The redhead takes a deep breath. “Would you be willing to part with one of those?” Her fingers tighten on the banister. “I’ve got five or six bucks on me.” Hopefully, he didn’t actually want it. This dress didn’t exactly have pockets, and she didn't want him to see him rummaging in her cleavage.

The redhead nodded in response. She didn’t offer another greeting though. That kind of stuff was better left to Aubre. With a raised brow, she watched Jiujiu’s pantomiming. A few times, the redhead looked to her left as if to comment to somebody. But, each time, her heart fell. Yakuza didn’t like this place, and she wasn’t about to make him go.

Still, she missed his stupid grin and obscene gestures. It took the tension out of stuff like this. “Gar?” Cherry cocked her head upon meeting amber eyes for what felt like the hundredth time. The rounded muzzle pushed toward the trainer’s shoulder with a confused noise. A gruff noise ended with a gentle shove. “It’s nothing, okay?”

Now that the Xurkitree’s shapeshifting was done, Madeline couldn’t fight back an incredulous look. “So, the space invader is a gondola too?” She knew what these things did, and she didn’t trust them. But, hey, they did need a way across. And, she doubted anyone would care if a couple of losers plummeted to their deaths. “Take a break for me.” The redhead murmured to the Garchomp as she called it back into its rusted old ball. “Ladies first?” She teased Josh as she clambered onto the writhing platform of wires.

Just as they left the platform, the sky above cracked with a blinding burst of lightning. A bolt struck a large pillar beside them, vaporizing it in an instant. The normal bravado vanished as Madeline clung desperately to the electric type’s tail. “This storm’s not like the others—” It made the hair on her arms stand up. And, well, the hair in other places too. And we’re sitting ducks.

Judging by the fact that she received another request, the scientists had been pleased with the plants she brought back. Not one to turn down good money, the redhead took the job. Unless it was going to be the next devil’s lettuce, she didn’t see the harm in handing over grass to the labs. With a new list of targets—a few of them familiar—she made her way back to the space-time tear.

After some trial and error, she and Cherry Bomb managed to draw even with the quartet. But it was hard to call the entrance elegant. A big girl and a small dragon made for an almost comedic pairing. Still, it was better than trusting some stranger’s Pokemon to get here there. And, even if she looked like she was on a hobby horse, the Garchomp didn’t mind the weight. “Rendezvous point should be right—” Madd hesitated just a moment. A crack of lightning set a man-shaped silhouette

Imagine her surprise when she reunited with Mr. Stick-Up-His-Ass, Fortunately, she managed a nod and a smile—finally, a use for all those years of finishing school. “Hey.” At the talk of the ship, copper eyes shifted across the landscape. Her shoulders lifted in a shrug. That place was as good of a place as any. "Sure." The Thunderdome had plenty of greenery to go around. “Lead the way.”

A pat on Cherry’s neck set the Garchomp loping after Aslan and his rider.

LETTERS TO FATHER WINTER THE 2ND

POSTED ON Nov 27, 2023 7:42:01 GMT

FATHER WINTER THE 2ND
NORTH POLE H0H 0H0
HOENN

Hey there, Winter.

This letter to Santa stuff always struck me as weird. We yammer at kids about stranger danger and then tell them to ask an old white dude for stuff. I've never done this before. I bet you can tell.

My dad couldn't be bothered to do the whole Christmas spirit crap. I knew where my gifts came from, and I had to be thankful for those ugly ass skirts. It was funny how he didn't have any idea what was in those boxes.

What I Want for Wintertide: I'm a simple girl. Just send me some money. If that won't work, I'll take a new pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Yakuza commandeered the last pair, and that piece of fur bait won't give them back. Just make them black or something, please. The gag gifts are only funny once.

What Would I Change About My Past? I hurt somebody once, pretty bad, actually. I'd go back and change that. It's funny. I have no fucking idea what we even fought about. It all seems so stupid now. But we're not Celebi, are we? This train just keeps rolling until you die. No do-overs. No second chances. I'd at least like to know the guy's name though. Maybe pay off a medical bill or something.

What I Would Change In the Present: I need a bigger place. The shoebox was fine when it was just me and Yakuza. But these days there's a manager trying to fit in a 1.5 room apartment. Let me know if you have a decent realtor hidden among those candy cane addicts.

What I Want From My Future: That life I had in fake Galar was nice. I'm hoping to get my EMT certification soon and maybe make up for some of the stupid shit I did. Maybe this year I'll have the courage to finally tell R to shove it.

And, if you're wondering, I didn't bother including the puzzle. My cousin blurted out the answers before I could even try, and it felt like cheating to just scribble her answers down.

Enjoy being dead or whatever.

Mermaid in a Tin Can [Navy] [M]

POSTED ON Nov 12, 2023 15:41:13 GMT

[attr="class","samjertop"][attr="class","samjer"]

[attr="class","samjermain"]

The old man had three of these fishing shops. And, as the new district manager (hah!), Madeline now knew each of them smelled the same. It reminded her of old cigars, Old Spice, and paneled wood. Which was weird considering this shop had been built after smoking had been outlawed. While not on her bucket list, the owner’s request to investigate the worst shop came with a decent hotel, and a few days outside the shoebox she called an apartment.

Auburn hair shook as the woman tossed her head. “You guys suck at inventory,” Madd muttered to the cashier as she stared at empty shelf after empty shelf. “Nobody ever taught us how to do it.” The pimpled-faced teenager replied with a shrug. Though Madeline was now positive he was less interested in making sales and more interested in catching a peek down the front of her costume.

Something that she had never had to wear back home. But apparently, this branch had a mascot. Some kind of creepy, Sharpedo mermaid thing. Its scales were navy and its tail (which was dumb to have on a Sharpedo) was made up of tightly wrapped iridescent ribbons. The chest of this one was way too small for Madd—the top looked like yeasty buns left in the oven too long. Her Obstagoon was clad similarly, though only with a shirt and ridiculous blonde wig.

But, if she wanted these losers to listen, she had to prove she was willing to do everything they did. Which is why she sucked it up and waddled out to the nearby shore. With a mutter, she rearranged her top for the hundredth time, just creating pinching in a different spot. After a moment, she spotted what seemed to be a customer. “Come on, Yakky.”

Folding her arms across her chest, Madd came up behind the fisherman. “Anything biting?”
