*edited Sept 2023: alternate version of agony because it bugs me how much the original one looks like a penis in this color scheme.

**edited Jan 2024: added another costume for him to use in a different post: (link)

***EDITED AGAIN Feb 2024: to be actually up to date for the years, including the black suit in late 2015/early 2016, between the pink tarantula and the fully pink shocking pink spider costume. Also made some new updates to the styling of the suit because I'd been avoiding figuring out how to give him a more practical suit. Now it's more practical.

agony is still just a hypothetical but I am not removing it from this post.

Anyway here he is, the one with a dedicated color scheme

obvs this uses the costumes i designed from (this post) but like ben's have been modified a teensy bit as i thought of small details i liked better or changed the soles etc. plus some minor additions like the fact that kaine doesn't have *checks notes* fingerprints

closeups under the readmore:

woo

kaine's face is real fucked up esp early on, just fyi

this is early one when Kaine is still only like... two years old (well, he's like, 24 physically and mentally, but Technically—)

anyway kaine only gets this outfit after a couple years, when warren sends him out to threaten peter's loved ones as leverage to get peter to cooperate/surrender. before this he mostly only wore hospital clothes.

he's pretty lean at this point but def buff.

because of this fact kaine doesn't know how to tie his own shoes at first (but he figures it out) (he has a lot of amnesia so peter's memories aren't necessarily super helpful and the muscle memory is lacking i guess)

anyway the one (1) outfit warren gets him is probably all from an army surplus store or a thrift store or something, like the salvation army or w/e

(that's how you know he's evil)

i gave kaine's other suits vibram soles on purpose but this one was totally on accident, i was just looking for american army-issue boots that came in black and the ones i found happened to have vibram soles.

After Kaine is rescued/escapes/starts hunting Ben down for reasons, he ditches the balaclava and starts growing his hair and scraggly beard out and steals a couple of other clothing items including a hot pink rain coat. His hair is greasy.

Also at that point he's homeless and his only source of medication is *squints* stealing ibuprofen and pepto bismol, so he's not doing so hot in general 😅 but at least he has ~bodily autonomy~ while wasting away.

he probably also kills some people (aside from Louise i mean) 🤷

i haven't been very consistent about what marks, wounds and scars go where (except for some of his burn scars) but i was reading some wikipedia pages and decided i think probably a lot of the open sores and other things follow Blaschko's lines but maybe not all of them.

so in spring 2014 after the aforementioned Lost Years and Redemption-based stuff, Kaine ends up leaving the country after making himself a costume, which is, of course, pink, and probably mostly stolen fabric.

His mask is like the Tarantula's 100% on purpose cause it ties into a little subplot where he goes to Medellín, in Colombia, gets mistaken for a member of the Tarantula's (Jacinda's) gang whilst minding his own damn business, and ends up dubbed the Pink Tarantula (aka La Tarántula Rosa) because of it. which he thinks is annoying but what can you do

Also he gets braces in Colombia after he starts stealing from rich tourists. i would say not so much out of vanity as much as the fact that his teeth need some help straightening themselves out after being physically (etc) abused by Warren for 3 years but it's probably both. but, you know, it's easier to chew when your teeth aren't aligned like a broken cartoon piano.

He also gets a whole new medical regimen while he's down there so he looks slightly less like a decaying corpse though he's def still plagued by clone degeneration side effects and feels like death a lot of the time but... better than before lol

Only vomiting blood SOMETIMES and not every day

color matched soles—i saw these and was like omg... they're perfect... black and pink... (in your area) has been updated to be boots which I'll admit make him look extra Tarantula-y...

Suit has been updated to be a two-piece so that Kaine can like. go to the bathroom without getting naked. Now it's a leotard which has been DIY'd to have a snap crotch (thus the back zipper).

it's regular ol' spandex... maybe with a slight metallic sheen of bluish idk... not the best material but he was just taking what he could get at the time.

gloves. modified work gloves from before, and then some uh... well they're pole-dancing gloves to be perfectly honest, but i picked the style because they have a very low cut on the hand and i want as much room as possible for his spikes—could i simply handwave it and say all he needs is a hole in his sleeve, probably, but where's the fun in that.

if i can't overthink logistics i'll die—anyway in this AU the spikes are a direct malfunction of a spinneret organ that Warren tries to give him, and which Warren does successfully give Ben (who has organic webbing). Kaine's don't work right so instead of webbing he makes spikes. they come out of his wrist and it's hard for me to draw 😂

black suit

(this black suit has a separate post cause it's new) another leotard over tights. less visible since it's black.

it's black. it's gothy. etc.

this is a repurposed suit i was originally gonna give to peter but i changed my mind, adjusted some minor details, and am giving it to kaine instead.

and he'll swap to the pink suit after he stops shaving his head—v

At a certain point Kaine stops shaving his head and starts wearing a new costume including a new mask... same old same old— expensive fire resistant materials etc.

i just reused the texture overlay from peter's FR suit for this. stretch nomex blend, basically. very durable, fire resistant, but still stretchy.

OBVIOUSLY this suit is HEAVILY inspired by his red and black Scarlet Spider costume but I modified it a bit in terms of color and some of the patterning (like black arms), to make it pink, because... I think he should wear pink lol and I didn't include his tattered pink cape (i know, tragic) so I had to include something other than the rain coat

it's not a high tech stealth suit though. just regular expensive fabric.

Also updated the logo and has been made mroe practical now—it's tights over a snap-crotch leotard which, of course, means that all three of the boys are rocking the same setup, just in different ways. Even Ben, underneath his hoodie. lol

Also, as i mentioned before, he has no fingerprints this whole time. because his palm is melted from using the mark of caine/kaine.

lol.

oh and his new gloves are made of lambskin and calfskin with perforations to make them more breathable. the claws are probably metal or something though idk.

he does have to take his gloves off to use his mark, though, which is true the entire time. it doesn't work well through fabric (though depends on the fabric) and if it did activate it would probably just burn or destroy anything on his hand since it's essentially just an exothermic chemical reaction related to his wrist spikes rather than... uh... magic? or whatever the 616 version is 😂 i mean lbr it's still basically magic bullshit though but i have pseudo-scientific basis for it (it's superglue)

the whole thing is intended to be durable. still has to get naked to use the bathroom though lmao

these are also vibram soles. my reasoning behind this was that (i was tired of trying to make up new sole designs) he just buys shoes and takes the soles out, modifies them if he needs to, and attaches them to his suits by hand, either with sewing or glue or both.

decided to update these into boots.

also I originally wrote he has thermasilk underwear under this suit but I think I'm gonna ditch that.

here is a bonus of what the mask would be like for the above costume if he was still buzzing:

also yeah he doesn't have web-shooters, because of his spikes, OR organic webbing, also because of his spikes, so he is a mostly parkour-based spider-man XD but he can still stick to walls and stuff since that's a different mechanism (electrostatic)

the real reason of course is that i was trying to come up with a design that would let me keep the lenses and also his beautiful long hair LMAO

(for a different design my approach was adhesive lenses which is also what felicia uses)

(speaking of that design i did recycle the body for this:)

AGONY!!

IDK if I'll actually use this, it was mostly for fun as I was thinking about how I could prevent Kaine from... uh... dropping dead and I was like. oh symbiote. Literally their whole thing in this setting is they originated as a medical thing so a symbiote is perfectly suited to Kaine's autoimmune dysfunctions etc.

And then I was like, hm which symbiote though? and then I was on the wiki page of symbiotes and was like, oh, Agony, duh lol she even has acid??? (not that kaine's mark is acid but, still)

also, you know, pink. (and purple since the color of Agony seems to vary slightly depending on artist team, host etc. so i decided to use both)

so i ended up with possibly the most glam rock hair metal blacklight poster symbiote-host pairing I've ever drawn in my life

and of course i couldn't resist making them just a little bit glossy.

like every symbiote, is expressive, but kaine... isn't, so. you know. they're pretty much always glaring.

alternately could go without the hair for a sleeker spider-man look i suppose.

i wanna say by this point he's gained some weight as well. I did slightly modify the lineart so that the Agony "suit" is slightly more solid than the Pink Tarantula suits and before but...

lbr... very minimal difference in the lineup lol which bugs me but... you know. would prob be more of a difference if i was drawing it from scratch for each one instead of editing an existing drawing. he should be slightly less skinny—he's def huge either way tho just by virtue of being 6'4".

long pretty hair... post 2015 prob. The hair color isn't quite right (his hair is supposed to be a little lighter and redder than Peter's) but I don't care enough to change it.

he is missing a piece of his ear, yes.

anyway his hair grows super fast:

terminal length is to his knees as an adult, ~5 feet long ish... technically longer since it's curly and doesn't hang as far down.

here is a bonus pic of him and Aracely from a drawing I have not finished yet which is basically just size comparison with a McLaren 650S lmao. that would be 2015 in-universe probably.

also for the others:

Peter's post-college/FF/late 20s suits: link

Peter's 30s-40s/post-Aunt May death suits: link

In addition to the settei sheet I made for Alice, I went ahead and added her to the part 5 height chart, keeping in line with a colored and b&w version as before.

I went with Fugo’s manga colors, as I really prefer them to the green. His green one I still very suitable for him, however. If I had to choose a color palate that I really dislike for him, I have to say it’d be his EoH cheddar cheese look.

I also went ahead and used Giorno’s blue manga colors, as well. I like the pink (or rather, lavender in the anime) and his black colors just as much though. I just kind of like how the blue looks next to Alice’s color scheme.

Bruno Bucciarati also had an ever so slight color edit, as well. While I really like his wonderful white suit, I decided to add a bit of a periwinkle underdone to it. The folds in his chest window are a darker periwinkle tone to compliment and bring out the lighter tones, and his socks match this as well.

Please follow the link below to learn more about my selfsona, Alice Dunne, who is featured in this height chart:

I saw stoukadraws draw ur new boy (DT) and I was like, oh my god, he looks so awesome, I have to go check out ur new U/S updates so I can finally see his official introduction in-comic where you can see his face and get his name and stuff!

I love his red/pink color scheme in comparison to Necros and CP's more cold-ish darker Purple (and white) and darker blue (and black) of Necros and CP. Maestro is blue too like CP, but more a softer blue.

Also, him being named DT/Determination, ohhhhh, interesting. I can only wonder/guess how (he got that name) that happened, and his body (and honestly, personality, even if I am liking him) got messed up like that.

I noticed CP, Necros, and DT all have damaged and/or messed up eyes. Well, one eye for each of them for the most part. CP and Necros' appear more injured and damaged, though, DT's one eye always being black like that though. Hmmmm. Seriously though, with those 3 all of damaged/weird/messed up eye(s), it makes me worried for Maestro, because he is the only of those 4, that hasn't got one of their eyes really messed up (not counting the emotionless eyes Maestro has now).

I separated my Ask into 2, because I realized it got really long, so I thought it might better to split it into 2. Ask 1/2.

Were the asks just calling DT, Valentines pterodactyl as a nickname until he found out his real name, or what that, like, a official nickname you gave him until the name reveal in the comic? Just asking because I saw multiple (though some of them could have been by the same person) asks mention that name when talking about DT. Don't get me wrong, the nickname suits pretty well in a way.

Anyways, really cool to finally see DT officially and not just the glimpses we got of him in the U/S Trailer! I like him, but I do worry about Necros being near him, he seems a bit unstable (also, happy and cheerful seeming ones like DT worry me, they can be quite scary sometimes). Also, love the heart he had in his speech bubble while saying to just call him DT, it speaks so much to his personality.

Both congrats on starting on Ch7: Re: Gain (I know I am a bit late in saying this, but I am not that late, and it is a big milestone, esp. with how long Ch6 was. I think Ch6 was your longest chapter so far?), the cover for Ch7 looked awesome (with DT, Maestro, Necos, and CP on it. Necros looking really worried on it though, and Maestro having his regular eye and emotionless eye looked really cool) and congrats on hitting 750 pages btw! How awesome! Sorry for such a long ask, but so much happened and I just had a lot to talk about.

Really excited for tomorrow's (if things go like expected) update! And for more of Ch7 in general, with how how good Ch6 was, I bet Ch7 will be the same. Ask 2/2.

Well again, "Valentine Pterodactyl" was the name given to him years ago when he was first visually teased by another fan of the comic, Azera.

And thankies very much! You're always so kind! ;w; I'm excited to jump into this chapter! It's expected to be one of the longest chapters so far, so I'm eager to show it off!~ ^w^

I hate their matching wedding lipstick. Its so dark isnt it.

I love a dark lipstick sometimes but they wear that shit with EVERYTHING and yea I hate it. It did not go with the color scheme or Kaylee's overall look at all.

Nobody asked but if I were in charge:

Kaylee's dress = simple with a full, flowy skirt, and either a little bit of sparkle or little lace detail, something to make it feel feminine.

Hair = half up, half down, wavy/messy w/ some detail tie it back into the dress, like something small but sparkly. No weird poof on top or halo flower head thing.

Makeup = natural look w/ little pops of pink (I'm thinking more rose-y than like bubblegum pink) incl eyeshadow & lipstick, lips dark enough to make then pop but natural looking. Maybe a little glitter around the eyes, brown eyeliner on top and edges only, mascara, and eyebrows in a normal human shape

Bridesmaids = dresses in different shades of very light pink and rose, different styles. Only the little girls in the champagne color with sparkle accents.

Groom/groomsmen: charcoal grey suits, white shirts, light pink ties, boutonnieres with green, matching pink rose or similar flower, and maybe one or 2 of those hay looking things she likes so much

#I've been thinking about this a lot #kayleethan wedding

Ride Kamens Speculations - The Belts

So. We've all heard about Ride Kamens at this point, right? Over the course of the last few weeks, five riders (based on 1, Den-O Sword Form/Momotaros, W, Jin, and Woz) have been revealed as characters within the game game... and recently, a photo of the belts for the remaining Riders yet to be revealed has been found.

Despite the looming prospect that I will be proven instantly wrong in the next few days (since they're revealing a few more Riders from the Justice Ride faction), I've decided to go ahead and attempt to figure out just which Riders will be influenced/featured, via these Belts!

[More Under The Cut]

The funny belts in question:

So, a few things for this,

- I've seen speculation that the rest of the Taros will be featured as Riders, but considering that every Rider we have so far is from a different series, I'm going to assume that the rest of these Riders will as well.

- Due to the presence of Jin and Woz as part of the influences for the current line-up, I have to assume that these won't all be main Riders, and thus I have to be creative in my thinking.

- I'm going to sort these by tiers of how good I think my guess is. Said tiers are Definitely In Here, Educated Guess, and Fuck Idk. I'm a master at naming things, as you can tell. Anyways, onto the list...

Definitely In Here

- Orange Belt: Gaim. Outside of the fact that we see a very Gaim-shaped silhouette in the "character lineup" image, this shade of orange can belong to only one person... and alas, it probably isn't gonna be Ghost.

- Gold + Green Belt: Beast. Like with Gaim, I doubt that there's another rider with colors like that. Especially since some sort of lion/catboy would do numbers for the audience the game is trying to attract.

- Yellow + Grey...ish Belt: Espada. I wanted to say Baron, but there's only one Rider with that shade of their banana yellow in their suit. Plus, they probably want at least one other Reiwa representative outside of Hayao.

- Magenta + Neon Blue: Kabuto. Grandmother said this: Tendou Shouji is the sexiest fucker alive and there's no way that these aren't his colors. Plus one of the guys in Slam Days does the☝️

- White + Purple: Chaser. The best part of Drive was Chase, and like. These are his suit colors. I know women like him so this one feels like a slam dunk.

Educated Guess

- Purple + Yellow: Ouja. If it's not gonna be Horobi, considering we already got Jin, then everyone's favorite mud eating psycho killer is the next biggest Purple Rider. Unless it's Michinaga. God I hope not.

- Gold + Red: Agito... maybe. As much as I'd like to be fully confident in this one, another Belt on here has me conflicted, so I'm putting this one down here. Plus, Chalice has the same sorta color scheme.

- Dark Blue + Pink: Hibiki. It might be someone else (mainly because I have no idea of anything Hibiki related), but I don't really know who it would be. The weird blueish purple is... distinct to say the least.

- Blue + Red: Blade. I've heard that the possibility of a Blade character would be in here (see above), but I feel like if anyone would be here, it'd be regular Blade. That being said, I feel like this would be G3 colors, as wild as that sounds, so I'm kinda on the fence.

Fuck Idk

- Light Blue + Red: Meteor. These are really generic colors to put on a belt, and due to the wide range of Blue Riders With Red On Them, I can't narrow down who it would be. The colors made me think of Meteor's helmet, but that's tenuous at best. My second choices were either Specter or Revi, but that's baseless speculation.

- White and... slightly less White (Tan?): Black. As strange as it sounds, the fact remains that if we're getting one more Showa representative outside of Saigo, it's either Black or #2... and this belt maybe fits Black? I honestly have no clue who this would be, mainly due to the stunning lack of discernable colors. Is any other Rider suit colored white? Someone comment it there is because I'm stumped on this one.

I hope this sparks some sort of discussion amongst fellow Ride Kamens Enthusiasts™ (all six of us), and feel free to chime in with your own guesses in the notes!

I’m sad today; the dead whale and pie

I am sad today for many reasons. Those two barrels don’t taste very good. I still haven’t taken the donations to the Hospice thrift shop. I forgot to get that order together. I had my first mammogram today (which was fine, nice lady touching my breasts to arrange me on the machine, so what’s not to like? Lol. squish). Things just aren’t working today: the drip tray is not draining, the trunk line for CO2 is not connected so I have to go again to exchange tanks, but I haven’t time today. The people that say they are interested in using our pressed fruit aren’t returning my messages and the pulp is just rotting out there and I don’t have time to take it to the field to compost it today. And there is more fruit to press. And this time last year Hal was still my friend, though I found out I would not be his lover. And the other person I thought would be my lover, well…

I’m definitely going to knock off early from work. But what can I do to cheer myself up? There was one day around 2008 when W’s dad was asking her to co-sign a loan, an enormous loan, the kind of loan that fucks up the rest of her ones if goes into default. He wouldn’t tell her what it was for, didn’t have a good reason for why he needed it. Just told her she wouldn’t understand, which is absolutely not true as W is one of the most savvy in market and economics I’ve ever met. So she told him no. As it turned out, this was the beginning of a federal investigation into her dad’s business dealings which would eventually end with him in federal prison for fraud. We would learn that he lost his retirement, his wife’s retirement, his son’s mother in law’s retirement, and the life savings of countless others. W’s parents lost their big, beautiful house in the hills of Orange County, the one W grew up in. It was sold to pay court costs and probably satisfy some of the claimants that brought the suit. The only thing they had left to survive on was their pensions, luckily enough to live on. Still, it was a very depressing time.

My work as an environmental biologist for state parks was going great at the time, though it would take its turn. In fact, a whale had just washed up on the shore. That doesn’t happen every day. There’s nothing like a dead whale to cheer up your glum spouse when her dad has gotten himself into a pickle of a ponsi scheme, right?

Nothing like it, indeed.

The sun was approaching the horizon and the sky was changing color. The marine layer several miles offshore glowed golden. The blustery day was easing into a breezy evening as we traipsed down the boardwalk through the dune lake and coastal dune plant communities. Not everything was blooming but there were some lovely colorful flowers, sun cups and dune poppies and sea rocket, purple and yellow and orange. We caught sight of the least tern fledglings on the bridge over the lake where they were learning to fish, and those goofy fuzzy clumsy doofuses with their colorful leg bands were adorable. We saw a few rabbits and I pointed out raccoon, coyote, and owl tracks. As we crested the last dune to the beach, there it was, a juvenile humpback whale, still rolling in the surf due to the steepness of the beach and a berm of deposited sand. It kept rolling it back into the water, and the tidal motions kept trying to push it back up the berm. Its gray hide was scraped pink and gashed in places, presumably polished off by sand and torn by whatever rocks it had met. It’s slack jaw opening and closing as the water rushed in and around its enormous, baleened mandible, which seemed out of proportion for the size of the animal, as if it hadn’t grown into it yet. A few gulls tried to perch on the carcass, but it was an unsteady surface and they quickly abandoned it. And it did smell strongly, the ranicid blubber and putrescent muscle mixing with the smell of the shoreline and rotting kelp that also washed up on the beach. (The following day, one of our crew would brave the surf to get a chain around the tail which would be attached to the largest tractor at the park. The operator, big old crotchety Ted (retired, this was his fun retirement job), would haul it up to a level spot out of the surf, under which he would later dig its resting place. But before that, biologists from a series of curious natural history museums and colleges would descend upon it with their whaling gear (really, it’s the best stuff for the necropsy of a whale) and take samples and measurements. I have a photo of a woman proudly, smugly holding an eyeball that was bigger than her fist. When they were done, Ted would dig that grave next to the whale, shove it in, and and push sand to cover it up, like he did with all the large dead elephant seals and sea lions (there is a mass grave of them out there in the dunes somewhere; what will anthropologists think when they find it).)

While not the most uplifting sight, it certainly did break up the monotony, it certainly was a temporary distraction, and the physical activity was probably good for us. So. Yeah. Nothing cheers a person up more than sunset with a dead whale… But there is no dead whale for me to walk to today. So I guess I’ll make a pie.

You would think that this “pink palazzo” is in Europe, but it was an artist’s home in Greenwich Village, New York City, that he named “Palazzo Chupi,” the pink palace in the sky. The large picture of the full building shows that it’s definitely in New York City, and it’s so interesting.

It’s a big building and has more than one apt., of course. This one was the artist Julian Schnabel’s home. The downstairs the entrance hall looks old industrial and rustic. Another apt. in the building looks entirely like this w/the rustic wood walls.

But not this one. On the uppermost floor is his fabulous apt., surrounded by a patio. Isn’t the fireplace fabulous?

The patio around the building is venetian inspired.

Love the black & white flooring that even extends out on the patio in some areas.. The dining table is in front of a window with great views of the city.

The tub also has a window with a view.

The black & white galley kitchen looks like it’s hardly used.

The rooms are full of Schnabel’s art, of course.

Every room has access to the outdoors.

The pink bedroom definitely looks like it’s in a villa.

En suite bath for the pink bedroom.

This bedroom has an interesting color scheme- blue, red, and a black ceiling.

The building also has an indoor pool.

This is the entrance to the large building down on the street.

When Villain!Yuu manages to return to their dimension and finds out their minions did, it’s one of the few times that the Supervisor has lived up to their title as heir. The next day the head of the minions of the attempted murder squad was found battered, covered in bird poo, and tied in front of RSA. If Crowley asks, Yuu makes the excuse that they are simply following one of the rules of villainy. If a minion steps out of line, don’t correct, make an example out of them.

Thank you for the ask, dear anon!

Warning for dark under the cut.

There are three items on the desk.

One is a cellphone. It’s a compact, black brick of a thing, the sort that could survive a drop from a window a story up. Its screen is currently dark and silent. It has not buzzed or vibrated, or given any indication that it’s even on.

The second is a glass of clear liquid. The glass looks pretty standard, no fancy plane designs or rectangular shapes. Just a squat round cup with a round lip and clear liquid an inch or so from the top. There are small bubbles forming in the bottom, the longer it remains undisturbed. It doesn’t seem like those are the results of carbonation, or some other nefarious properties.

No. If anything, the cup is there for the third object on the table.

A pair of two pills are sitting innocently by the cup’s side. One is larger, pale pink, and lozenge shaped. The other is smaller, a capsule that’s colored dark green and blue.

The minion swallows. The phlegm feels like it’s lodged in his throat.

There’s a sigh from the other side of the table.

The Supervisor leans forward. The supervillain’s features are slightly drawn, like they’re preparing to undertake an unpleasant chore.

The minion has the insane urge to giggle at the sight.

“So…” The Supervisor splays their hands. “Unfortunately, following reviews of your recent performance, we have found that you are…not a good fit for this business. It’s been determined that it’s in everyone’s best interests for you to be terminated from your current position effective immediately.”

The minion—or rather, ex-minion—gives a shaky nod.

The Supervisor tilts the brim of their top hat up, so they can better make eye contact with him. “You have two choices for your…ah, severance package.”

One hand gestures to the glass and pills. “Option one: you take these. The pink one is a sedative, and it’s up to you whether you take it before or after the other. It’s pretty fast acting, so it shouldn’t matter so much either way. All you’ll know is just falling asleep.”

The other gestures to the phone. “Option two: I make a call to Dr. Crewel. You’ll be transferred to his department. But in the, ah…volunteer capacity. Instead of the minion one. Do you have any questions?”

There’s a moment of stunned silence.

“W-what?” The ex-minion stutters. “B-but…I, I don’t understand?”

“What don’t you understand?” The Supervisor asks, patience in every line of their posture. Like they were an adult helping to explain something complicated to a small child.

This, in spite of the fact that the ex-minon was a decade the supervillain’s senior.

That helps the ex-minion order his thoughts somewhat. “I-I thought the rules for g-getting fired were that the min-minion in question would be turned over to the police for arrest. Or to the local sup-superheroes.”

The Supervisor nods. “That is what happens in most cases, yes. However, in those cases, the termination is contingent more on minion incompetence or betrayal. You and your…friends, regrettably, fall outside that purview.”

The ex-minion’s mouth moves soundlessly. “But…I don’t understand. Isn’t this for betrayal? That I betrayed you?”

The Supervisor’s mouth tightens, even as the rest of their face remains impassive. “That…is another crime you committed, and one that was taken into account when making this decision. But it is far from the main motivating factor behind all this.”

The ex-minion wracks his brain. “But, what…?”

“You attempted to murder a child.” The supervillain exhales, some dark, wounded emotion entering their eyes for the first time. “Another version of myself, true, but an injured, defenseless child. One who had never done anything to you, or anyone else in this world. Who had no involvement in whatever quarrel you have with me. Who nearly bled to death on my roof due to the injuries sustained as a direct result of your attempted murder.”

The Supervisor shakes their head. “And that would be bad enough, especially as I was under the impression that they would at least be cared for in my absence. Except this? This was not an isolated incident, was it? Looking over the behavior of the perpetrators, it’s become clear this is only the culmination of a dangerous trend I should’ve seen and put a stop to ages ago.”

The ex-minion doesn’t think he can breathe.

“The first endangerment of Miss Elena Blackwood back at the bank. The repeated suggestions of attacking elementary, middle or high schools or public playgrounds to divert heroic attention during heists or schemes. The inclination to ignore my orders when I specified that children were to be released immediately if caught up in a hostage situation we organized. The attempted hostage taking of Mr. Cheka Kingscholar while he was my guest.”

The ex-minion tries swallowing again. When he speaks, his voice is hoarse. “I thought you didn’t know about that.”

He winces at the mindless admission.

The Supervisor’s eyes narrow at him, and fury rolls off them in almost visible waves. There is no doubting the Night Raven’s genetics were used to make them like this.

“I have my ways.”

The ex-minion quails under their glare.

The Supervisor sighs, scrubbing a hand over their eyes. “Do you understand now? You are not being fired for betrayal. You and your cohorts are being terminated for repeated and willful perpetuation of un-villainous crimes of one of the highest orders, in accordance with League Statute A55. So, what’ll it be?”

“Sh-shouldn’t there be a hear-hearing, or, or an appeal, or something?!” The ex-minion begs desperately.

“If you wanted forgiveness, you should have applied to the Royal Sword Association.” The Supervisor rattles off blandly. “We here at Night Raven Corporation specialize in putting the super back into supervillainy.”

The ex-minion slumps. “…I always hated that slogan.”

The Supervisor pulls a commiserating face. “Not some of Dad’s best work, I’ll admit.”

He stares at the pills and at the phone.

“…Which did Miette pick?”

The supervillain pointedly glances towards the glass and its companions.

He snorts. “Naturally. She’d rather be dead rather than be something monstrous like you.”

The Supervisor inclines their head but doesn’t deny his words.

He considers it some more. “…Would I still receive a paycheck? As a volunteer?”

The Supervisor shrugs. “One that’s considerably reduced from what you currently earn, but yes. You would be compensated for your services. And your current life insurance will still be maintained and paid out to those you specify in the event of an accident under Dr. Crewel’s care. Or, indeed, if you take the other option.”

Like he has anyone he wants that money to go to.

His eyes dart between them.

The choice is easy in the end. Miette can call him a coward all she wants beyond the grave, but he’s not letting this thing be the last sight he sees.

“Make the call.”

The supervillain nods, and picks up the phone.

It’s screen lights up as they lift it towards their ear, pressing a button. “Dr. Crewel? Mr. Aston Michaels has expressed his consent to be transferred to the volunteer department. When can we expect pickup? Five minutes? Yes. Yes, this is the last one. Well, thank you for your help. Have a nice day.”

They hang up, and set the phone back down on the table.

Something flickers across their face— distaste? Weariness? Regret? Whatever it is, he hopes it haunts this thing’s nightmares for the rest of its miserable existence. It’s the least it deserves.

The two of them sit there in silence. Then there’s a knocking behind him, and light spills over him as the door is opened.

A pair of minions in impeccable suits step through, nodding to the supervillain, who nods back. Each one of them takes one of his arms and gently pulls him up from his seat.

“I’d say you’re going to be dammed to Hell for this.” He says, almost cheerfully, before they can turn him away. “But I’m pretty sure you need a soul to go down there, and things like you don’t have those.”

There’s a subtle intake of breath from the suited minions on either side of him. He ignores them, his glare fixated on his now ex-boss.

The Supervisor smiles grimly back at him. For some reason, that kind of pisses him off.

“Oh, believe me, Mr. Michaels. I know.”

The Way You Wear That Dress

Inspired by the song Dress by Charlotte Sands

Part of the 20 First Kisses Series

Summary: It's the beginning of eighth year, and Simon can't find Baz at the Welcome Back Picnic, so he goes in search of him. What he finds is unexpected and makes him rethink everything he has ever felt for Baz.

Word Count: 2150

If you want to know what I imagined Baz’s outfit looking like, here are the links to the dress and the boots! (I love the idea of Baz in these boots and have used them in a couple of fics now.)

Read it on ao3

***

Simon

It’s the beginning of eighth year, and I’m pretty sure Baz is already up to something. He isn’t at the Welcome Back picnic with everyone else, so I decide to go in search of him and stop whatever scheme he’s about to put into motion.

I start with our room, wondering if maybe he decided to go back up there, but the room looks the same as it always is at the beginning of term. My side is devoid of any personal items since I didn’t have anything I felt like bringing back from the care homes (not that I really had anything there). Baz’s side is immaculate, all of his things neatly put away in their respective places, filled but not cluttered.

I move over to the window to look out at the school. It seems empty right now with everyone else out at the picnic. My eyes skate over the courtyard where, not long ago, the first years’ fates were sealed by the Crucible. I only hope none of them were given as evil a roommate I was.

My gaze continues over the grounds for anyone who isn’t out on the lawn, and after a minute of searching I catch movement on the ramparts.

It could be anyone, but I know it’s him.

I turn away from the window and head back down the stairs and away from Mummers House. I quickly but quietly make my way to where Baz is, not wanting to scare him off before I can figure out what he’s up to but also wanting to get to him before he disappears again.

I come to a stop several feet away from where he stands on the ramparts. It isn’t what he’s doing that causes me to freeze, though. It’s what he’s wearing.

At first, I wonder if he has decided to don the Watford-issued cape for his final year, but then I realize that the swishing of cloth around him isn’t a cape. It’s a dress.

The dark green material falls to just above his knee in the front, giving just a glimpse of his thighs, but in the back, it nearly grazes the ground. At the top, around Baz’s shoulders and chest and around to his back, the material is sheer with interwoven lace, allowing his pale, grey skin to show through. He wears the dress like it’s nothing, like it was made specifically for him. (Knowing Baz, it probably was).

My eyes follow the line of his dress down to his things and knees, but where I expect to see the rest of his legs – his muscular football calves – I’m met with the sight of knee-high boots that are laced up the back and have a heel that adds at least two inches to two inches Baz already has over me.

I can’t seem to stop staring at his outfit, but I finally manage to force my eyes back up, and that’s when I notice Baz’s hair.

For the first time since I’ve met him, Baz is wearing his hair down with no products slicking it back away from his face. Instead, it’s being pushed back by a thin headband, silver like his eyes, that still allows his hair to fall in natural waves around his face.

Suddenly, my mouth is dry and my throat feels tight. I try to form words in my head, but my mind is blank. All I can think is, legs. And that’s when I know that I’m fucked.

How is it that Baz looks so good in a dress? He should look ridiculous. I should want to ridicule him for it. Instead, all I can do is stare and hope that he doesn’t turn and find me staring at him.

For a full minute, my eyes slowly drag up and down his body, taking it all in, before I force myself to look away, not wanting to get caught staring at him. Inevitably, though, my eyes are drawn back to him.

It’s hard to believe that it’s really him. I just can’t reconcile this version of Baz with the version I’ve known for seven years. He looks so different, but he also looks very much like himself. Possibly even more like himself than he ever has. (If that makes sense.)

I wonder what happened to him this summer. It’s like there was a shift somewhere within him that made him act and dress differently. I just don’t know what it is.

He is dressed so femininely, but he still holds this masculinity about him, and the whole thing is driving me crazy. He pulls it off so effortlessly.

He’s dripping with confidence as he leans his arms on the ramparts, a lit cigarette hanging between his fingers.

I know the smart thing to do would be to turn away and leave him be, but doing what’s smart has never really been my strong suit.

I take a few steps towards him even though I haven’t consciously made the decision to do so. I feel drawn to him like a string is pulling me towards him, and as I draw nearer, I notice a glossiness to his lips, as if he’s spread lip gloss or something over them.

I want to hit him. Why does he always look so good? It’s annoying.

My eyes fall back to the dress he’s wearing, and I can only imagine what other people might think if they saw him like this. For starters, he’s out of uniform, and also, he looks bloody well perfect, like nothing he wears will ever make him look bad.

I briefly consider going to find the mage and telling him what Baz is wearing, but breaking dress code isn’t enough to get him kicked out of school. Plus, I’m not sure I want to share this side of Baz with anyone else.

I’m not sure why but it probably has a lot to do with the fact that Baz has obviously chosen a place away from everyone else, maybe so they won’t see him like this and judge him for it. But it could be something else holding me back. Something like this desperate need I’m feeling to put my hands on him.

I want to push him up against the wall and…and…. That’s where my thoughts cut off because usually when I push Baz against the wall, I want to punch him, but today, that’s not what I want. I don’t want to fight him. I want to…

I shake my head. I can’t finish that thought, can’t think about what it means.

And yet…

An image pops into my head of my hands on his hips, rubbing against the luxurious material of the dress he’s wearing. Of my hands in his hair, tangling in it. Of his breath on my cheek. Of the feeling of his glossed lips on mine. Of the moment he starts to kiss me back and--.

And I shake my head again.

I won’t lie and say that I don’t want any of that, but I can’t be foolish enough to allow myself to hope for it. Nothing has changed. Baz still hates me, and he’d laugh in my face if he found out that I want to kiss him.

Because I do. Want to kiss him, that is. And it’s not just because of the dress. I think that was just the thing that pushed me to finally admit how I feel. How I’ve felt for a long time.

But Baz will never feel the same way about me.

I should go. I can’t let him catch me practically drooling at the sight of him in that dress.

I turn away from him, but I turn too quickly and trip on my own feet, cursing loudly as I try to catch myself.

“Simon?” Baz says behind me.

“Uh…” I say stupidly, picking myself up off the ground and slowly turning to face him. “Yeah?”

“What are you doing here?”

“You, uh, you w-weren’t at the picnic. I came looking for y-you,” I stutter out as my face flushes red.

“You weren’t supposed to see me like this,” he says, and his voice sounds strangled.

He drops the cigarette to ground and grounds it out with the toe of a boot that probably costs more than everything I have ever owned. That sight shouldn’t make me even more attracted to him, but it does.

He turns one of his usual sneers on me and snaps something snarky at me, probably the beginning of chewing me out for following him, but I barely hear a word he says because I’m so mesmerized by the way he looks. Also, the sound of his voice is somewhat soothing, even with the biting words that no doubt spill from his glossy lips. I missed hearing it while we were away for the summer.

He’s looking at me expectantly now, like he’s waiting for me to answer a question I didn’t hear, and I feel myself blush even deeper.

What the hell is wrong with me? This is Baz. He’s just wearing a dress. I shouldn’t be acting this weird around him.

That’s when I see his nails, colored all black, a glossy sheen to them, and that’s the last straw.

I can’t possibly think straight anymore, so I push all thoughts from my mind and move to close the distance between us. Careful not to mess up the dress, I shove him up against the wall but stop just before our lips meet.

The heels of his boots cause him to tower over me even more than usual, but I’m not bothered by it. I actually kind of love it.

His mouth is parted as if I stopped him mid-word, and the tips of his ears are turning pink. I can’t tell what he’s thinking, though. I’ve never been very good at reading people, especially not when it’s Baz.

“If you’re going to punch me, get it over with already, Snow,” he sneers.

“You called me Simon before,” I say.

“No, I didn’t.”

I shrug. It doesn’t matter. All that matters is, “I don’t want to punch you. Far from it actually.”

He hasn’t pushed me away yet, and my confidence starts to build. Maybe Baz would be more receptive to this than I originally thought.

I keep one hand on his hip to keep him pinned to the wall and move the other one up to cup the side of his face.

“Is this okay?” I whisper, hesitantly. He nods, so I move my hand up higher, into his hair. My hand slides over the headband and combs through his hair. “What about this?” I ask, my voice breathy and barely audibly.

He nods again.

My eyes drop down to his mouth, and I want to try one more thing, but I don’t want to push my luck. I don’t want to risk trying too much and losing it all.

“Just do it,” Baz whispers as though he read my mind.

I cock my head at him in a question, uncertain whether he actually means what I think he does. Then he says “kiss me” so I quietly I almost don’t hear him. But I do hear him, and it only takes me a beat to lean forward and press my lips firmly to his.

The kiss is everything I imagined and more. His lips taste like cherry cola, and I feel drunk on the taste of him. Like I’ve lost all sense. (And maybe I have since I’m kissing Baz of all people.)

It only takes a moment for Baz to begin kissing me back, his arms coming up to wrap around me and pull me closer. I can feel the dress move along his body as he moves under my hand, and I feel lucky that I get to experience this. It’s a shame that he’ll only be wearing the uniform after this.

I wonder if he would even want to wear this dress in front of other people if he could.

I like the way he looks in it, but I obviously wasn’t meant to see him like this. Does he like wearing the dress? Is he afraid of what other people might think? Has he worn it before?

I have a million questions, but now is not the time to ask. If Baz wants to talk to me about his choice to wear the dress, I’ll be there to listen. But I won’t pressure him into talking about it.

So, for now, I’m going to enjoy it while I can.

I’m going to enjoy this while I can. Having Baz in my hands and not fighting with him. This is so much better than fighting, I think, and I continue to kiss him, thinking about how this may be the best year at Watford yet.

GoMs + Kagami, Hanamiya, Teppei as Pokémon Trainers

Pokémon x Kuroko no Basket Crossover

Headcanons on KNB characters if they were trainers

For only the “Generation of Miracles” (plus Kagami), I wanted to show that they are prodigies in the pokémon universe by each giving them the appropriate specialty legendary/mythical pokémon respective to their anime counterpart abilities/personalities.

Also, as GoMs in the pokémon universe, I was careful to also choose some of their respective pokémon based on base stats and the consideration of type variety, unless a team had most pokémon sharing a type for a reason, in addition to already choosing pokémon based on their pokédex entries.

I have also given pictures of said pokémon suited to each KNB character below the cut.

Warning: spoilers on KNB characters, it’s a given

Kuroko Tetsuya

his lack of presence would directly translate into the pokémon world pretty nicely and would make him pretty attuned to ghost pokémon floating about, but that won’t necessarily mean he’ll have a full team of ghosts

I feel like he would accidentally just pick up the mythical pokémon, Marshadow as a kid without knowing its reputation and would just let it follow him around like a buddy… and then they would become an official trainer-pokémon relationship later on // they’re both tiny and usually unnoticeable; they’d be best friends

he’d definitely have a Zoroark, since these pokémon require very strong bonds with their trainers, and they’re infamously known for their illusions and trickery; for Kuroko, he probably saw right through a Zorua’s (pre-evolution) tricks back in the day and then it became intrigued by him and joined him along the way before evolving into the Zoroark we see present day // this is a tribute to Nigou as well, since they’re both dog-like/fox?????

surprisingly, he’d have a Hatterene just trailing behind recently; Hatterenes hate extreme emotions emitted from humans and I’d feel like it would just be lured in by his dry personality

Hatterene’s color scheme is literally the same blue and pink like Kuroko and Momoi, so Hatterene is very much a Momoi who chases Kuroko around while he doesn’t mind it at all

his 4th pokémon, Vanilluxe, came to be when he spent hours hiding in the tall grass for a Vanillite (pre-evolution) to show up; he was willing to go out of his way to catch one because he wanted an ode to his love for vanilla milkshakes

all in all, he would be the trainer who is able to instantly connect and make friends with other pokémon around without even trying; ironically, he would have the most variety of typings in his team because of that

he’s the protagonist trainer who would always be the first to openly stand up against the villain teams and foiling their plans, but he would need the support of the other GoMs (cough) to take down the team bosses

he would definitely be friends with N (BEST franchise character)

he’s a “youngster” trainer like a “youngster joey” vibe KDJWORKWKW but like he’s pretty OP by the end of his journey

Kise Ryota

Cinderace with its hidden ability Libero is perfect for our blondie; Libero is an ability that allows the user to become that type of the move it just used until it uses a move of a different type, and then it’ll switch to that next type (I thought about Greninja with its Protean ability at first because it’s the OG ability and it's the exact effect just a diff name; but Cinderace’s design is a soccer motif and it reminded me of Kise in the old Teiko days)

Kise would very much be a renown model in the pokémon universe, and he’d idolize Elesa (from Pokémon B/W and B2/W2); both are blonde models too LOL (except she dyed her hair black in B2/W2)

so he’d have a Luxray (non shiny OR shiny, both suit him), because since he looks up to her so much and she’s an electric-type gym leader, he’d probably have an electric-type of his own

I would think he’d have a dragon-type pokémon like Haxorus to connect him with Aomine (a dragon-type trainer) since in the anime, Aomine was Kise’s mentor and role model in basketball; it would give him a fighting chance with Aomine if they ever faced each other in a pokémon battle

he would have a shiny Sylveon, and he would love to dote the ever living fuck out of it and feed it poképuffs (maybe from Murasakibara’s café LOL) and sing with it, and every time it sweeps someone’s team with its Moonblasts, he’ll cheer it on so much BDHWIRWI it also adds a certain connotation to his idol reputation as this “approachable guy” with his adorable Sylveon too

this guy has an idol status not just in the beauty/fashion industry, but also in the sports world (especially in Unova’s sports stadium in Nimbasa city)

he’d meet tons of other models and fashion icons like gym leader Nessa, champion Diantha, etc. WHEW JUST SAYIN

he would have his face plastered everywhere on trainer PR videos and even getting offers for some minor acting roles in Pokéstar Studios

one day, while he’d be at the studio, there was a whole commotion how the studio and the museum had their deliveries mixed up because the studio had the real meteorite while the museum had the well-made prop of a meteorite; and uh, it turns out this meteorite had the alien virus that pretty much had its DNA mutated into a Deoxys

long story short, being a very experienced trainer, Kise would manage to catch it after hours of chasing it in the wild areas nearby

over time, he and this particular Deoxys would come to have enough mutual respect for each other to be able to battle as a proper trainer-pokémon duo

that being said, he won’t resort to using it unless it’s life-threatening; note: he changes its Formes using a chunk from the meteorite in the studios he broke off (Deoxys [and its many forms] is further reference to his versatility as a basketball player)

Midorima Shintarou

as a man who seeks for good luck and fortunes he’d stack up on a Chimecho for sure and…

Togekiss; he used to have its pre-evolution Togepi to solely to try to make it stand up while sleeping for good luck (according to the pokédex), and the more he kept trying, the more he made it attached to him and before he knew it, he had a fully evolved Togekiss // he’ll NEVER admit that he loves it to bits, though

this might be unexpected at first glance, but he’d have a Mega Absol; hear me out, it’s called the “disaster pokémon” according to its pokédex, however it is only named so because it warns others of disasters when it appears SO IT WOULD WARN MIDORIMA OF INCOMING BAD LUCK

he’d probably receive a Rowlet from Momoi as a gift from her laboratory, and he didn’t have the heart to abandon it; he’d evolve it to a Decidueye… and just… keep it (this pokémon is a reference to his no-miss shots)

ultimate good luck bringer: Ho-Oh ✨

would have the most “balanced” team out of everyone in terms of type-coverage (reference to him having the most coverage in skills for basketball, from shooting to absolute defense to having ball-handling skills)

he’d totally avoid Akashi’s Kadabra (pre-evolution of Alakazam)—who will be mentioned later down in the list—because it’s said to bring bad luck, as well as avoiding all the Ninetales because he doesn’t want to risk accidentally pulling off one of their tails and be cursed

he’ll avoid caverns as much as possible (but it’s impossible to avoid them all) because those are the habitats of Golbats (who will supposedly give bad luck if one bites you) but if there wasn’t a leeway for him, he will literally LATCH onto his Chimeco and keep his Togekiss and Absol out of their pokéballs to guard him LMAOOO

I would feel he would constantly strive to fill up his entire pokédex, so he’d be a pokémon master in training in a sense; he’s someone who wants to prepare himself for any situation and opportunity, so being a pokédex filler would always provide him an encyclopedia on potential pokémon to either stay away from or catch more of because of certain luck factors

make no mistake though, he’s a seasoned pokémon battler, don’t fuck with him

Aomine Daiki

an intimidating Garchomp would be his ace™️ pokémon, ummmm have you SEEN its base SPEED stat??? it’s a monster

we’re gonna go overkill and give this man a Mega Rayquaza just for the sole fact that he’d be the “ace” trainer of ALL ace trainers and veterans alike

however, because of his “lack of practice/training” like in the anime, he’d probably just stick with these two pokémon, since usually Garchomp already sweeps everyone’s teams without a sweat

homie is probably napping on top of one of the laboratory roofs (probably the one Momoi works in) or escaping to a nearby cliff or hill to relax and keep a lookout for any promising trainers that pass by him

is a trainer who pretty much kept one-shotting all the trainers throughout his journey in the region (aka that’s us protagonists when we play against NPCs)

he would also be that trainer who wiped the floor with the current champion so badly that he felt that all his “training” leading up to that moment didn’t even feel rewarding (plus there’s those countless trainer battles before where it didn’t feel thrilling), and so, he just left the league after, waiting for the day a sufficient rival could show up in his life

he’s definitely cleared the challenging battle systems of each region (probably back when he still had some passion for battling and had a good full team): Battle Frontier, Battle Tree, PWT tournament, Battle Manson, Battle Tower… you name it, he’d probably be done with most of them, if not, all

Murasakibara Atsushi

he’d have a Bewear, Appletun, and lots of variants of Alcremie’s just hanging around him

note: you should search up all the variations of Alcremies yourself, hint cough, it’s 60 variations total

maybe he’d have a Snorlax chilling nearby because it’s so huge

Murasakibara would be a Pokécafé owner AND HE’D HAVE HIS BULKY BEWEAR AND HIS SNORLAX GUARD THE SHOP, YOU CAN’T ARGUE WITH ME

or he would UNLEASH his G-MAX forms of Alcremie’s

and he’ll just use his pokémon to make the tastiest poffins, poképuffs, and pokécurry

he’ll never bring out his final pokémon, Melmetal, unless it’s an absolute emergency and his shop is in danger

he would love Kuroko’s Vanilluxe, in a sense where he would always impassively joke about eating the ice-cream pokémon and Kuroko would just constantly hope he’s not being for real

he wouldn’t be motivated by ambitions like other trainers would have, he just wants to chill and loaf around all day; if someone pissed him off about he was a “weak” trainer or how they were becoming overly cocky when talking about their goals, he’d be right there smiling and ready to annihilate them | (• ◡•)|

Akashi Seijuro

Espeon would totally fit him as his first pokémon; its eyes are very reminiscent of his feline irises, and it’s tiny in size but a very powerful sweeper when set up right AND THEY’re ~calm~ while being capable of either sweet or very calculating later on / LIKE PET, LIKE OWNER

Tsareena; this one has a literal attitude of a queen and its pokédex is pretty terrifying in which one kick from its legs “leaves a wound in the opponent's body and soul that will never heal”... sound familiar?

Nidoking, cough I wonder why I picked this guy he’s a king, but jokes aside, it’s here to add more type variety to his team, and it’s mostly there to be a status inflictor (aka poisoning) and hazard setter with traps for his opponents… sound familiar with how he initiates his shogi strategies?

Mega Alakazam. that’s it. this pokémon has 5000 IQ like ?? would totally wipe the floor with Akashi in shogi if it tried

you thought Aomine had an overkill legendary, but Akashi has Hoopa, who’s capable of a Confined form and Unbound form, representative of his two contrasting personalities

he’s an ambitious trainer aiming to become a Pokémon Master, and he’s one of those feared prodigies that all the region champions just lowkey sweat hearing about him coming to wreck their leagues apart

his pokédex would be damn near completed

he looks more into a pokémon’s utility and how it can fit into his strategies; it just turns out that most of the capable/eligible pokémon he ends up picking are psychic-types because they all tend to have extremely high intelligence to pull them off

Momoi Satsuki

Mega Altaria fits Momoi’s aesthetic of being cute, but very dangerous if you underestimate it, and I wanted a cute connection to Aomine who I primarily headcanoned to be a dragon-type trainer, so Altaria is a dragon-type pokemon that I picked out (perfect alternative would be Mega Gardevoir if she never met Aomine)

Blissey is a pokemon that brings happiness to anyone that eats their eggs, and it very much fits Momoi’s personality

Tapu Lele is a totem pokemon that has incredible knowledge, and is known to be able to outsmart any opponent during battle, referencing her pre-cognitive defense research abilities

she would definitely be constantly mistaken as a pokémon “Beauty” (yes that’s a trainer title), but in actuality, she’s training to become a pokémon professor as an assistant

Momoi’s “professor specialty” would definitely be her researching about a pokémon’s current stats (plus their EVs and IVs) and would pinpoint their level of potential and thus, predict their growth (and the steps taken for a certain type of growth) // she’d probably become really famous in the world of competitive battling because a lot of trainers would try to approach her to help “train their teams”

Kagami Taiga

I think he would ironically have a Lopunny because it used to be Alex’s but she just left it in his care and now he has this prankster bunny that’s basically an Alex 2.0 to other pokémon in its vicinity ?? but it has hops like Kagami so

a hotheaded, short-tempered guy like Kagami would have an Incineroar (they… kinda look the same)

Krookodile would be very much up his alley… its offensive stats are also not something to take lightly, especially when paired with moves like Earthquake and Foul Play

Kommo-o would be a pokémon that embodies Kagami’s personality very well: it seeks to battle only strong opponents for the reason to defeat the “darkness,” and its presence is more than enough to scare the weaker opponents away; Kagami has been mentioned as the “light” many times throughout the series, and his piercing gaze on the courts generate suffocating pressure on the opposing teams // it’s also a pseudo-legendary pokémon on the same base-stat caliber as Aomine’s Garchomp (hinting at their game against each other) ( ᐛ )

last one I’d find really amusing to give for Kagami would be Victini, the adorable mythical pokémon said to bring only victories for its trainer… and it’s a reference to his ascendance to the top of the Winter Cup after defeating all the GoM’s teams

oh yeah, I forgot Mega Lopunny existed so I’ll just attached that right below

anywho, so he’s a rising pokémon trainer who wants to become a pokémon master… but only for the battling part LOL like he doesn’t believe in “catching ‘em all” so to speak because he’d be someone who would believe in winning battles with the pokémon you truly bonded with; in other words, he’d probably only catch new pokémon if he feels a certain connection with them

but because of that, he doesn’t have much info on other pokémon besides his own, and it bites him in the ass when he has to try to figure out ways to take down opposing teams

reluctantly would team up with Kuroko after finding out many of the competitions require double battling but he doesn’t have a single strategy for it, and then Kuroko would pop out of nowhere and offered a hand to be his double battle partner until he learned how to double-battle on his own

spoiler alert, they totally start becoming travel companions in exploring the world together

of course Kagami would have battle strategies, but he isn’t like Akashi where he would actively look for the appropriate strong pokémon for his strategies; he makes strategies to accommodate his existing team

Kiyoshi Teppei

HE HAS A LUCARIO, NOT ONLY THAT A MEGA LUCARIO; they both seek for justice and they’re extremely loyal, and they both are able to read their opponents very easily

HE ISN’T CALLED THE “IRON HEART” FOR NOTHING, I CAN SEE HIM WITH A SHINY METAGROSS JUST BEING AN OFFENSIVE TANK YET BEING ABLE TO SWEEP, JUST LIKE AN ACE WOULD

he would live a double life: a shopkeeper of his grandparents’ pokémon item/antique store by day, pokémon ranger and patroller by night

he would keep his local area safe (ง'̀-'́)ง

yes, I only see him as a steel-type trainer

he’d be so precious with his pokémon and meticulous in his care for them: he’d probably shine his Metagross everyday or brush out his Lucario’s fur, just because !!

and his pokémon would be fiercely protective of Teppei in return, mostly because they noticed he has bad knees and they don’t want him to strain them any further(;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)

Hanamiya Makoto

no debate, he’d have a shiny Hydreigon… dude that pokémon is an absolute nightmare to level up and evolve, let alone tame, but back when it debuted in Pokémon B/W, it was the most OP pokémon out there // shiny variant of it because it has a similar color scheme to the Kirisaki Daiichi basketball team, and he’d probably have a shiny version just to flaunt it off and piss people off

Salazzle with a hidden ability Corruption, where it allows it to poison any pokémon regardless of type or ability; again, it’s to piss the trainers off in battle

and finally, a Dracovish; a person like him would totally have this inherently fucked up pokémon just for the sole purpose to disturb the hell out of his opponent trainers, but make no mistake: it’s an underdog sweeper

look, he’s an admin of some sinister villain team and he has his other Kirisaki Daiichi starter players as his personalized grunts (they’re like a specific sect of the villain team; e.g. Shadow Triad or the Seven Sages of Team Plasma)

you might wonder, why don’t I give him a “spider” pokémon, since the webs are the analogy used to compare to his strategies in basketball? too many villains have Ariados in their teams and Galvantula is a friendly, fuzzy tarantula soooo it wouldn’t fit Hanamiya at all

I don’t think he would have any deep motive to be villainous other than to just enjoy people getting fucked over by his own deeds and actions; sometimes, it isn’t so deep

“it’s your boy, Guzma Hanamiya” if you get this reference I love you

End Note: “Mega” forms and “G-MAX” forms are not separate pokémon, but rather, temporary power-ups during battles; they are just shown to show the differences in appearances compared to their original forms when they transform.

Photo

Flash (w/ various legs), Peter but with six arms, MJ (x2), Gwen, and Harry.

Not an AU or anything just me trying to design a suit for each of them if they were a spider-person.

I spent at least an hour struggling with gwen's, initially had not wanted both of the girls to have their faces partially exposed (cause that always happens) but i couldn't get gwen's to look even remotely how i liked so i went a more mad scientist route with her...

meanwhile MJ's and Harry's were kind of a "nailed it in one" situation" (well, two for MJ technically but I already had the color scheme and design ready to go)

flash i struggled with the colors a little but i like how it looks with the double pink... peter's was easy tho lol

posted on twitter: link

included the previous suit design i did for peter because that’s the design I was modifying peter’s from, and is also just the default design i tend to use when i draw him

#gwen looks like a dolphin but i don't hate it as much as i did with a mask #nadiart #fanadiart #spiderman #flash thompson #peter parker #mj watson #gwen stacy #harry osborn #his boots are either rocket boosted or for use with a glider idk i just wanted to give him weird heels

What do you think the rooms for the rest of the boys will be like??

for some reason i think hoseok’s will be like pop art. like i have no doubt he’ll go reasonably bold with his outfit choice and while it may not be a rainbow inside the room there will maybe be like bright red or blue accents?? like tasteful hobicore u know

jin I have no idea. when I think of jin personally I think of like a soft gentle elegance, one that’s easily carried. like I imagine a similar color scheme from jimin’s but maybe more beige??? i also can’t decide if i think he’ll go full suit or like bright pink hoodie

yoongi i think will go similar to guk but maybe not as dark color scheme wise?? like maybe soft greys??? soft blues??? (his painting included maybe?) i can’t imagine him trying to /not/ convey music in some way shape or form like i said maybe w instruments instead of speakers or maybe w his handwritten notes or producing software idk. outfit wise tho i have no idea sndnsns

every hybrid era team’s best racing overalls

part 1 (backmarkers & cryptids edition) here

Red Bull: 2020

i shouldn’t have to defend this one. the light black suits w/ the like, neon scarlet? so clean. i was so close to picking 2018 but that year lacks the ICONIC red collar stripe which i love. AND they took away that godawful skinny gray stripe from the 2019 suit. Red Bull used to have hideous suits (im looking at u, 2016), and they’ve just been getting better and better since then. also look at max’s hips in pic 2 oh my god

Mercedes: 2017

gosh, that was the year they got the turquoise stripes SO right. right leg had like a swooshy teal, and the left leg was BLANK. asymmetrical KINGS. every other year the stripe was just too heavy handed. i’d have picked the 2020 suits based on sheer sexy factor (off the charts) but the stripe, sadly, again brings their whole look down. i gotta agree with lewis that the all black and white sponsors were kinda hot. red accents have no place here.

Williams: 2017

the lefthand black stripes were KING. there was just something so satisfying about this era of williams design. the red and the two-tone blue. the perfection of the martini logo. it’s like they knew what they wanted and weren’t going to apologize. plus susie wolff was a test driver that year. it was so hard to find a photo of them that didn’t have terrible coloring so i feel like these pics don’t really do them justice. who was the photographer for these shots i just wanna talk

Ferrari: 2017

tell all your friends: santander > missionwinnow. I just miss the era of white on red ferrari instead of now the black and red shit they got going on. stop it. get some help. I kinda feel like this was one of the only years where they managed to use the white stripes to good effect. they’re tiny and crisp and somehow manage to make the suit look somewhat flattering on both sebastian and kimi, who have wildly different body types??? also i miss the unproblematic simi days sue me

McLaren: 2018

sue me i wish i liked the blue and orange bc it’s such a nice color combo but 2019 just felt a little too google slides and the 2020 is just.... ‘70s scifi and not in a good way. the 2018 suit had a gentler orange, a nice minimalist style & the chandon logo with the little star, which i just adore. the black forearms/wrists is also a detail which i love. the shapes on these suits are just so satisfying.

Renault: 2018

the big honking castrol edge logo on every modern renault suit really brings these overalls down. this was honestly the CLOSEST call of any team, i was so close to choosing the tastefully black & narrow yellow striped 2019 overalls. it really came down to like, the font & numbers on the leg & the fact that i watched that year’s dumb pr vids so many times i convinced myself they looked good. i will say though that the amount of yellow on these is sexy instead of overdone like it was every other year previous.

Racing Point: 2019

RP has been around for three years, and it’s a bit of a goldilocks story in this case. 2018 had too little pink, and 2020 has too much pink. 2019 was not a perfect race suit, but it was the year they were closest to getting it right. the white stripe with pink borders down the legs is VERY nice & i appreciate a good dose of asymmetry. BONUS POINTS for pale pink boots. i’m a sucker for the pink car so I’d love to see a really well executed pink suit, and altho i think they’ve gone too far with the pink this year, I think they’re headed in the right direction. i’m counting this as a separate team from force india bc i didn’t want to have to choose between their color schemes

#THANK YOU THANK YOU ILL BE HERE ALL WEEKEND #f1 #red bull #mercedes #williams #ferrari #mclaren #renault #racing point #my shit #i highly recommend checking out part 1 bc it has my favorite racing overall of all time :)
