First Kiss (Race 2)

A strollonso AU where 18 year old rookie Lance Stroll falls helplessly in love with the notoriously mean world champion. (1.4k words, no warnings) [@v3lnys]

last part - masterlist - next part

Quali came to an end once again, the feeling slightly tamer than the first time as Lance pulled back into his side of the garage, Nico not far behind.

He was slightly disappointed he qualified p10 but it'll be fine as long as he can actually finish this race (and hopefully get points for the team this time.)

He heard Nico talking to his engineer on the other side of the garage and decided to go over, not having much to do on his side.

"Seriously, the wheels locked up like twice. You were watching and I know you noticed so the fact that you're ignoring the issues is bullshit-"

Maybe not the best time to stand around.

He decided instead of hanging around with Nico he'd just walk around the paddock, his race suit hanging by his hips as he walked by the other teams garages, seeing how busy everyone else on the paddock was. He could tell some people were quick to go home but he wasn't ever in a rush to get back to his hotel room, it was usually boring anyway.

"Ah, Lancito, I was just looking for you" There it is. The voice Lance looks forward to hearing as soon as the race week starts, and most likely the reason he decides to stay back as late as he does

"Nando, Hi" He flashed a smile at the long haired driver, stoping in his tracks so they could walk together

"Nando?" The shorter man echoed, catching up to Lance as they both continued walking, steps in sync as they made their way around the paddock

"Well, I figured it was only fair for me to give you a name since you gave me one" Lance nodded as he spoke, afraid the older man had a problem with it, it was quite childish, he wasn't sure why he even called him that, Fernando worked just fine, it was a silly nickname

"I like it, Sounds good coming from you." Fernando smiled up at Lance, wrapping an arm around his shoulder to pull him down to his level "Guess we are friends now, eh? Coworkers do not usually have special names for eachother"

Lance nodded again, he supposed Nando was right. He turned to look at him as he continued to speak, rambling about many things but all Lance could think about was how good he looked. He'd never really examined the Spaniard like he was doing now, sunglasses propped up on his head, holding his hair out of his face, it seemed like he had just shaved that morning, the shadow of his facial hair barely visible, his lips curved slightly upwards as he talked, his hair curling in every direction but somehow he made the messy look seem intentional

"What hotel do they have you staying at, Lancito?" Was the first thing Lance really heard after spending god knows how long just staring at Fernando. How embarrassing.

"Uhm- Mövenpick? I think, Otmar has my keycard somewhere." Lance hummed, having lost the keycard to the hotel in Bahrain Otmar had decided it was best to put Nico and Lance in the same room and "look after" Lances keycard until they headed back.

"Ah, I see. I didn't realize they'd put drivers in different hotels."

"If you miss my company so much you're welcome to come along, you know I get special priviliges because of my dad" Lance joked, at this point he was so used to people belittling him to just being his fathers son that he had started to do it as well

"Ah, don't say that Lancito" Fernando almost scolded him, moving his hand to tap the back of his head "You forget I'm world champion, I could buy another hotel ticket if I wanted to."

Lance laughed, nodding in agreement, there wasn't anything stopping Fernando from doing anything really, after he left the paddock he could go wherever, do whatever, it's not like he signed away his soul to F1 so moving hotels wouldn't be a big deal "I know, I know, but if you ever want free stuff, Mr. World Champion, you know who to ask" Lance hummed, taking his turn of having his arm around Fernandos shoulder "These are the perks of being friends with a nepotism baby"

"I'll take your word for it then" Fernando laughed, accepting the change of positions, it wasn't very comfortable reaching up to drape an arm around Lances shoulder anyways.

A comfortable silence fell over them, neither feeling the need to add anything more, it was odd, how well they had clicked. They got along better together than either of them did with their teammates but no one was complaining. Lance liked having someone to go to outside of the Racing Point garage and Fernando liked having someone he felt like this towards, whatever "this" was. They were snapped back to reality when Otmar finally found Lance

"God kid, I was looking for you. Nico's about to head back so I figured now was a good time to give you the key" He pulled out a think black card and handed it to Lance "Don't lose it this time, alright?" He asked, not letting to just yet.

"Alright, I'll attach it to my arm, okay?" Lance joked, turning back to Fernando "Think about it, really, if your hotel gets boring you're more than welcome at mine." He said before making his way out of the paddock, catching up to Nico so they could leave together

Odd was all Otmar thought, he didn't realize his driver had gotten so close to Fernando, he'd thought maybe it was just press, or maybe some plan the Spaniard had, but he had nothing to gain from staying late and just sitting next to him.

Lance tried not to be disappointed when night came and went and Fernando had decided not to come, it was silly, but a part of him was looking forward to seeing him outside of the paddock, outside of the blue and yellow.

They were so busy before the race that Lance hadn't even managed to catch a glimpse of the Spaniard let alone talk to him, before he knew it interviews were over and he was in his car, lined up in the fifth row, Nico barely behind him.

Fernando was right in saying Malaysia was going to treat him better, he had managed to make up three places and actually get points for his team in his second grand prix.

It felt great, even though it wasn't a podium like Fernando had gotten getting points waa a big deal for the rookie (driver and team).

The debrief went smoothly considering how both Nico and Lance finished the race with no major problems, as they gathered their things and the team started to leave the garage one by one Lance couldn't help but notice the blue in the corner of his eye. He turned his head and smiled when he confirmed it was in fact Fernando

"Good-" Lance started, trying to beat Fernando to congratulating eachother was proving to be difficult

"You did great, Lancito" Fernando commented, walking into the garage now that it was practically empty "Your overtakes are pretty decent for a nepotism baby, eh?"

Lance laughed, hitting Fernandos arm "Guess you did pretty good for a world champ then, huh?" It was nice, the banter they had, if anyone else joked with him jow Fernando does he was sure he'd take it the wrong way but with how Fernandos treated him since they met he had no doubt in his mind that every jab he made towards him was lighthearted.

"Any plans before Australia, Lancito?" Right, Lance had forgotten there wasn't another race for two weeks

"I'm not sure, I always end up somewhere though" He laughed, leaning on the counter behind him, using his hands to prop himself up "How about you, where are you going, Nando?"

"Me and Mark, Mark Webber, were planning on spending the break in Australia together"

Right, he forgot Fernando was close to Mark, the driver who's seat he took.

"Could you tell him I'm sorry?" Lance hesitated to speak, wondering if the Australian was mad at him for ending his career early

"He doesn't mind, trust me, if he wasn't okay with ending his career he would've signed with someone else." Fernando consoled the younger, patting his shoulder after he finished "Don't worry your pretty little head, alright?"

Lance laughed, shaking his head at the comment in efforts to ignore the pink tint covering his face "Alright, Nando."

Hello y'all. Here's another little thing I wrote. This time it's just dialogue, because why not ig. Lance is not kind to himself in this one, but that's what Fernando is there to do. Enjoy 💜.

"You know I like you, right?"

"... What?"

"You know I like you, right?"

"I mean, I surely hope so after what we have done tonight"

"No, what we do is great, but I like you"

"I'm... really not following"

"Lance, you're not just a pretty face or a bed warmer, you are more to me, yes?"

"Oh, I didn't think..."

"Why, because am the bad guy? Just using the innocent boy?"

"Ok, first of all calm down, I'm anything but innocent. Second, I know how I am. I didn't think anyone would like me"

"Lance, what are you saying?"

"I mean, I have Esteban and Mick, and I have friends, but I never thought you would like me"

"Why wouldn't I?"

"Mhhhh, because I'm the spoiler kid who you are literally paid to endure?"

"LANCE, is that how you see me?"

"No, of course no. You are Fernando Alonso, 2 times world champion, hungry and focused and magnificent"

"So, is that how you see yourself?"

"I mean, that's who I am, no?"

"No Lance, not even close. You're wonderful, and full of talent, and kind and brave"

"I don't understand, we are already fucking, so why are you trying to butter me up?

"Cariño, this is not about the bed. This is about who you are"

"Am I not the son of my father? Or the kid who gets what he wants easily? They are right about me, you know it"

"No Lance, they don't know the real you. They don't know that every father would do what Lawrence does, if they could. They don't know how hard you work and how hard you are on yourself. They don't know shit. And if you think they do, you also don't know shit"

"Oh and tell me, oh mighty one, what is it that I don't know?"

"You don't realise how lovely you are, and how easy is to love you"

"If I was, there would be proof. But there is none, so..."

"Just because other people are shitty, doesn't mean it's on you"

"Ever considered I am the shitty one?"

"Never, not for one second"

"Why?"

"Because I see you, even when you hide yourself, when you lose yourself, when you don't know anymore. I'm always there"

"You really are, aren't you? But why?"

"Because I love you"

"Don't play with me, Nando. It's one thing to think I have some redeeming qualities, it's another to lie"

"There is nothing to be redeemed. And am not lying"

"I don't believe you"

"You really mean you can't believe me. But that's ok. I am patient. I can wait for you, and in the meantime show my love for you"

"I don't know if I can..."

"Is ok. We have all the time in the world to figure it out, no?"

"Yeah, I guess so"

-

"You know I like you too, right?"

"Mhhh?"

"The other day? We moved past it, but I wanted you to know that I really really like you"

"Ah, is it so?"

"You don't have to be a dick about it. But yeah, I like spending time with you, I like talking with you, I like sleeping with you. Yeah, both ways, not just sex you asshole"

"Wasn't going to say anything"

"Sure you weren't. Anyway, I just wanted to say it explicitly. I like you"

"You are the sweetest, Lancito. Come here, and show me how much"

"Right now it's close to zero"

"Of course it is. What about now?"

"Co... compelling argument. Tell me more?"

"Claro que si"

-

"So, that was intense"

"Yep"

"...Is it too soon to say I love you"

"Probably, but who cares. Tell me"

"I love you. For a million reasons, but mostly because you are you, and I am who I am"

"M... Would you believe it?"

"What?"

"I love you for the exact same reasons"

Lance: Ah, hello, it's nice to meet you. I'm Champion Lance, Ash's father figure.

Kukui: What a coincidence! I'm Professor Kukui, Ash's father figure.

Kabu: Hm? How strange. My name is Kabu, and I'm also Ash's father figure.

Lance: ...

Kukui: ...

All three, internally: Oh, it's fucking on!

OKAY SO this dynamic was gifted upon me by divine prophecy (/silly) so this is my propaganda about why silver and moon should be half siblings and why their dynamic would fuck severely in an interesting way.

- both silver and moon have, on account of circumstances, been forced into a position where they have to be strong. moon, after nearly dying and getting saved by a legendary pokemon, is pushed by the adults around them into being strong and a protector on account of them viewing moon as being "chosen" by tapu koko. silver, on the other hand, is pushed into being strong by his lack of adult support — he's left homeless and abandoned by his own fucking father and so he has no choice but to get stronger, mentally and with pokemon.

- it's an interesting juxtaposition how moon, despite being literally pushed into everything (example: guzma trying to fight prof. kukuu only for the professor to turn around and force moon to fight him instead), canonically treats their pokemon with love and care and has this series of winning and winning and winning. they get pushed into becoming the champion against their will by circumstances out of their control and they get stronger at a rate so rapid that they can't properly handle it and they're always winning and beating people. because they have to. silver on the other hand, despite actively seeking out strength, struggles to gain it on account of not having any support or love or knowing how to care for others (even if he starts to learn) both human and pokemon wise — and he loses. he loses consistently against ethan/lyra/kris. he loses against lance. both of them have been put into a position where they have to be strong but despite silver actively seeking to be strong on his own, he can't do it to the same amount of success.

- i think it'd make silver so Much Worse to have a little sibling. it'd definitely take him a while to find out about moon for like. Obvious reasons. but finding out about them would cause a like massive internal conflict. about. the desire (though suppressed) to have a family and how even if he has lance and ethan and kris and lyra there still is that *ache* over being abandoned and wishing that his bio family was good and he didn't have to go through that. i could see him finding out about moon when he's around the age of like. 16. the alola protagonist was originally from kanto and is like significantly younger than blue, who's only around 2-3 years younger than silver. so they'd probably be a Small Child. also it'd made silver worse by making him absolutely Terrified of accidentally mistreating moon because Small Defenselesss Child and him who has a History with mistreatment of others

- despite that it'd be. kinda good. for silver. to have to decide if he wants to try to have a relationship with this Child so is only related to him via the man who so badly harmed him. he's learning to bond with his pokemon and others, however, bonding with a child requires a lot of patience and things silver struggles with. if he Wants to pursue a relationship with the only link he has to his bio family, it'd force him to have a completely different dynamic and figure out how to Deal with that.

- also this is a sillier reason but lance gets yet another kid to adopt. win for the serial adopter !

- also THEY WOULD HAVE SIMILAR ISSUES WITH ABANDONMENT. lillie fucked off and left alola and tried not to say goodbye but moon found them at the last second — and giovanni fucked off and left silver and tried not to say goodbye and silver only caught him at the last second.

- also moon moving to alola would like destroy a small part of silver. even if his reaction would be to just go "i'm fine it's fine it's fine i'm an adult i can handle this. i can handle it."

- but also. if silver is aware of lillie because of moon, when she goes to kanto (he'd be an adult at this time) he can bring the serial adopter lance around and help lillie properly heal. because even if she's been healing she still feels a sense of obligation towards lusamine that they could help her shake off.

- aside from the temptation of angst. the dynamic would also be kinda funny. moon giving silver (and by extension lance ethan kris and lyra) 10 000 heart attacks whenever they tell him about their pokemon journey because what do you MEAN you fell off a bridge what the FUCK moon— don't even get me started on rainbow rocket. the way moon would text silver "hey team rocket's in alola ????" and silver would find a way to literally teleport there that Second to kill a bitch (giovanni)

oh also there's this:

silver, looking at moon: .....what do you.... what the....

moon, who has lunala and zygarde: these are nebby and ziggy !!! :DD

I’m going to eventually write a crack fic where Green and Silver just want time to hang out with their respective champion boyfriends but Lance (their father figure) won’t leave them alone, and so they come up with a plan to get him a girlfriend and who shows up in town at the same time? Cynthia… boom perfect. Then it’s just campy hijinks as Green and Silver attempt to set the two campions up.

Obviously it works out in the end but they end up creating an even more insufferable monster than just Lance on his own. And all the rivals wanna do is make out with their bfs without Lance or Cynthia bugging them.. it’s a losing game but hey Lance and Cynthia are made for each other

coming back to the voltron renaissance in 2023 made me think about the old fandom and the new fandom, and how they never changed.

mostly the hate for sheith and the fanon interpretations of the paladins. i was a sheith shipper and i still love them so much. but back then and even now, people will label those who like sheith, no matter who they are, "p*dos", "incest shippers", or simply "proshippers". this issue has been talked about in the past, but i still see it in the voltron fandoms renaissance, so i just wanted to put my two cents about this issue.

since the hate was born from the fanon interpretations i will start there (please keep in mind that these are my opinions and im writing about the things ive seen personally, back then and even now):

i will start with lance actually. lance in canon is the flirty, happy, jokester, or as pidge said "the goofball". he flirts with women sometimes, makes jokes, but overall he is a capable paladin, and he is great at longe range weapons. he has his own set of insecurities and has expressed homesickness in the show when they were still in space. his insecurities came from thinking what he brings to the team isnt enough. this isnt a rant about the show itself (mostly) so i wont be talking about his missed potential here, many lance lovers already did that. now in his fanon version ive seen, especially back then, his insecurities and homesickness was turned up to a 100. he had depression, and hid it behind a happy facade. this isnt my problem with the fanon character. i completely understand projecting onto a character ypu relate to, i do it all the time. my issue, in a lot of fandoms not just voltron, is that sometimes people bash other characters or make them unnecessarily mean just to angst another character. i personally hate character bashing with a passion. it honestly makes me a little mad sometimes, because the character is the exact opposite of what the fandom portrays them as. im not trying to generalize the entire fandom, but i see this a lot in almost every fandom. its usually only a single character that gets bashed too. when i look at something for the character from a show/book/etc i want the actual character, preferably with hcs i find cool, not oc content made out of them. i like oc content separately thats another thing, but making characters into what theyre not defeats the purpose of liking them in the first place. thats what i almost always saw with "langst". unnecessary character bashing, mostly keith, almost always keith. was the team mean to him sometimes? yes! but lance wasnt the defenseless victim in any way, he retaliated. thats the whole point of his own "rivalry" with keith. to push each others buttons. i love when people make hcs for characters even if i dont like them, but not when it erases another character entire personality or watering it down. that was my issue with fanon lance. he wasnt hated by the team. do i have hcs that dont align with canon at all? yes yes i do!!! thats okay!! but i try to keep their personalities the same.

next up shiro, my sweet winter child. shiro is the "hero", always willing to do whats good for the majority. hes the leader, the champion of the empire, hes calm when he needs to be, but hes also playful sometimes, and adventurous, and (from the pre-kerb flashbacks) even a little bit of an adrenaline junkie probably. most importantly, hes young. not a teen young, but a young-adult. his trauma made him seem more "mature" and "responsible", and yes while he is responsible, he is nowhere near parental kinda responsibility. his fanon interpretation make him a father figure to all, tired™️, wants to die, single father to 4 children, etc etc. personally, i dont see it. hes at most an older brother figure to the garrison trio. also he is keiths best friend. not parental figure but best friend. he is maybe the dad friend of the group and thats a maybe. because of the “father figure” hc, a lot of people hated on sheith bc “ew dude thats his dad/brother”. this kinda thing is not exclusive to the vld fandom either, because genshin has this issue too. i wont be talking about it in depth but another ship i like, zhongxiao, is hated because of the very popular “father/son” hc that is not canon. fandoms need to learn that just because a hc is really popular doesnt mean it is actually canon. the fanon shiro has the feel of a middle aged dad, when in reality hes barely in his mid twenties. he makes stupid laser sounds, jumps off of cliffs in a hover bike, and goes on rides past curfew with keith. he was the youngest pilot to ever go to the edge of the solar system, it was literally said in the show. he was most likely 21-23 pre-kerb and 25 in s1. people forget that yes shiro aged a bit in space but so did the others. also he was dead for like 3 season so i dont think he aged that much then. he died when he was 25-26, i really dont think people age when they die but thats just me idk. if you age shiro up while keeping the other paladins in the 16-18 range thats weird, and if you attack people because of that thats weirder. his responsible nature probably was caused by his trauma when he was the champion. he had to mature to survive.

now, onto my specialest boy, my babygirl, my universe, keith. i will admit that i have a bias when it comes to him, but its probably not what youre thinking. first things first, ill say this again in another post too, i hc keith as strictly mlm, meaning i dont like any pairings with him that involve a female character, especially acxa (bc shes my gf). this does NOT mean that i will harass people who like it. it just means i will block you if you reblog or like posts with it, because thats what youre supposed to do if you see something you dont like. this was just a heads up just in case. back to the actual rant. keiths canon character is that he has trouble trusting people, but hes still kind, thoughtful, and sometimes playful too. like in s1 where he was having fun with the team. he has a edgy exterior, likely because he wants to drive people away before they can reject him. he has trouble understanding social cues and such, he is fiercely loyal and protective of his loved one(s). his fanon interpretation watered him down to "edgy teen", or sometimes an asshole. he was seen as emo and angsty, friends are for the weak, and "shiros emo son/brother". they took away the times he has shown vulnerability and kindness. when he put others no matter what above him during survival. he is not someone that would be mean for absolutely no reason, his rivalry with lance was mostly one-sided because lance initiated and he retaliated. his inability to understand social cues was most likely due to a) growing up in the foster system b) people not making an effort to know him, like shiro did, and shrugging him off as the emo loner kid and c) his year alone in the desert after his expulsion. some people made him up to be an asshole, or just plain stupid (lance sometimes got the "dumb one" treatment from the show but ive never seen it in the fandom, feel free to correct me). he was seen as edgy and emo for acting the way he did in s3 after shiro disappeared and before they found him. the treatment keith got, from both the show and the fandom, was so so bad. especially when it came to his trauma, grief, and his self-sacrificing tendencies. after shiro disappeared post-s2 keith lashed out, he was tense, from losing shiro AGAIN. there are, as we all know, 5 stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. he had just gotten shiro back after everyone told him he was dead and then he lost him yet again, this time with no logical explanation as to why or how. he just disappeared, seemingly into thin air. there was no logical explanation, he couldnt linger in denial like before, because there was nothing to deny. shiro was gone. the others didnt understand, because they werent as close to shiro as keith was. he was their leader, their role model, their friend, sure but he was keiths best friend. the one person that didnt give up on keith even when everyone else did. their attempt at comfort fell flat, because they didnt understand what keith was going through, except for maybe pidge. keith didnt "get over it" at all, and it showed. it showed in his leadership, when he kept going after lotor, even if they kept getting their asses handed to them. i could make a separate long rant about hoe keith mental well being was always shrugged off, his sacrifices. another instance, was naxela, or however you spell it idk. keith almost sacrificed himself, almost died, to save everyone else. he was so so close to doing it that if lotor was even a second late he wouldve died. and no one acknowledged that, not even an "are you okay" from matt, who begged him not to do it. hell, shiro(kuron) even congratulated him for taking the shield down and saving them. imagine how fucked up it wouldve been if keith succeeded. keith self-sacrifices are never brought up, never acknowledged. the cartoon excuse wont work because the show did cover heavy topics at times. keiths inability to see himself as invaluable and important was further encouraged by the "mission before the individual" mindset. im about to lose my point and start ranting about keith.

now, sheith;

no sheith isnt incest. they arent and never was actual brothers (adopted or otherwise). the "youre my brother" line is what people always refer to in an arguement, but that isnt evidence. bc in s2 keith said "youre like a brother to me". "oh they have a brotherly relationship you cant ship them-" yes i can. yes i absolutely can. that arguement is literally just "smh cant two people be friends". because they are best friends first. and it was always keith saying those things, never shiro so i can make the arguement that if they had a brotherly relationship it was one sided. in the black paladins episode (still my favorite along the the bom) the clone didnt have a reaction to the "youre my brother" line, he specifically had a reaction to "i love you". there was a pause between those two lines, so i can make the argument that keith thought shiro only saw him as a brother, but when that didnt work, he confessed. but even without my own argument, they still are never brothers, otherwise they wouldnt have put a direct paralel between shiros ex-boyfriend and keith.

no sheith isnt a p*edo ship. keith in s1 was 18, and that wasnt even confirmed after a while. shiro was 25. in s6 keith was 21 and shiro, being dead, was most likely still 25. most people, like me, who shipped sheith started shipping them in s1, because it was clear they had a positive history. keiths first word was "shiro?" in the softest most vulnerable voice ever. shiro always showed concern for keith, the way the looked at each other was enough for people to like them as a ship. their wiki has an incredible amount of moments between them that can be interpreted as romantic. the ages were never an issue, if they were they wouldnt have said that they could be interpreted as romantic. even with the pre-kerb argument, because the ages arent confirmed, it never was.

this point is for shunk, shance, etc too. but bc sheith was and still is public enemy no1, i talk about them. sheith was popular, and at the time any ship with keith and lance that wasnt klance was hated by them, but sheith especially so. the fandom calmed down for a bit and now its back, i think, from what i saw. but the sheith argument is still going on. i got back into vld because of a keith edit i saw on tiktok, i wont lie. but the not so surprising thing was that sheith is still public enemy no1. you cant go one second without someone hating sheith and making fun of the shippers. its a "proship" apparently. hell my favorite keith editor literally has "shaladins dni". the hate for sheith specifically is still so strong. and its exhausting, i dont like people calling me a proshipper simply for liking a fictional ship that is in no way a proship.

i sat down for like probably an hour writing this just to get my thoughts out. i have been thinking about this for so long, even if this doesnt make sense or its stupid i really dont care. maybe tomorrow ill hate it, maybe ill delete it even who knows. im really glad that there are places where sheith is no longer shot on sight.

gold / hibiki redesign bc the brain demanded so

some notes down below

prefers to go by gold around most people

he’s kind and has a strong sense of justice, but will not hesitate to fight when needed ( this includes actually throwing hands with people )

ho-oh’s chosen ( sorry masters players i have never played )

loves his mom

will actually rotate his team around to some pokemon such as: jumpluff, furret, umbreon, politoed, donphan, heracross, etc. but his typhlosion, ampharos and togekiss are mainstays

* speaking of typhlosion, they have a scar from silver’s feraligator from when they first ran into each other; do not worry gold and silver are on good terms with each other

champion of both johto and kanto*

* will occasionally pass that title to lance because he finds himself stretched thin between his duties already ( lance is a father figure to him, once again sorry masters players )

helps out with the pokemon daycare with lyra and help kris with uncovering and protecting the ruins in his free time

speaking of which he is always tired and sometimes struggles to function throughout the day

trans and queer

Hey Knight I noticed you barley talk about the Champions parents besides Diantha’s mom and sometimes her dad

So, what’s your interpretation for the rest of them? Are they good parents, abusive, or the “I’m going to the gas station to buy cigarettes” type?

Besides what canon gives us of course (e.g. Leon’s mom, Steven’s dad, etc.)

Pfft sure I did say I should write more abt the other champs so have more angst abt them owo

Cynthia's parents are dead. Idk, I've read like, a few fics abt her and usually they'd write in how her parents are dead and ofc I added that to my hcs bc I live for the angst hahaha I wanna say like,, in my own hcs, her mom died while giving birth to Cyn's younger sister, and her father died during an expedition, leaving their grandparents to raise them. Ofc, Cynthia couldn't really fault her sister for what happened to their mother, it wasn't her fault; the expedition her father went to went downhill and they couldn't even find his body. But idk, as much as she wants to care she just really,,, couldn't. She wasn't even that old when her mother died, maybe she was like,, two at most, and when her father died she was three. So she never got to bond w them much, and if she tries to think abt them, well.. her grandparents would always come to mind instead. She never thinks abt them really, never even visits their grave, she just,,, she really just kinda forgot abt them if she's being honest, but ofc people expect her to like react in some way whenever she's asked abt her parents, so she'd just fake being hurt and missing them when she really doesn't. How could she even miss people that she didn't even know that well.

Wallace's parents are the most homophobic pieces of shit to ever walk Hoenn, so you can only imagine how rough it was for him. Not only that but they also kinda held him up in a high standard compared to his own sister as he's the older one between them, thus he's going to be the next Guardian of Sootopolist. They honestly didn't support him on his career on contests, instead they insisted he'd be Sootopolist's Gym Leader, and while being Gym Leader was an item in his bucket list, he also wanted to join contests and be a coordinator. That didn't sit right w his parents ofc, berated him for his interest, his father even beat him up, they ended up disowning him and he went to live w his sister for a bit, promising her that when he gets back to his feet he'll make it up to her. And ah, yknow his sister has always been such a sickly kid when they were younger, and that didn't change when they got older, after Lisia was born, a few months later his sister died, leaving him w his niece. His parents blamed Wallace for the death of his sister, but he ignored them, opting to take care of Lisia instead, as a way to make it up for his sister. He has to fight long and hard so he'd have custody of Lisia, and he ended up taking the title of Guardian from his parents too, saying that it was his right and he was next in line, and his father was in no way shape or form to do his duties anymore. Ofc, their relationship is as strained as ever really, he doesn't let Lisia visit her grandparents in fear of what they'd do to her, so he's like,, he's really trying so hard to be a Guardian, Champion, and even a father figure now to his own niece.

Lance's parents were pretty absent most of his life ngl, same goes for Clair's folks really, which left them at the care of their grandfather, the Clan Elder. He knows they're still around, he just doesn't mind them really, rather he's just trying his best to be the next leader of their clan. If they talk to him, he just talks to them too, and it's not like there's really any conversation other than them asking how he was and if he's doing well. He's like.. he's indifferent towards them. Like, it's cool they're still around, but if smth happens to them he really.. he really wouldn't turn his head to help them. Why would he? They were never there for him too. He does hate his grandfather tho, mfer had too much expectations on them and he hated it, so he really broke the chain after being the new leader of their clan, and did a lot of things he knew would piss off the elder. He almost never calls the elder as his grandfather, it's always been elder, he doesn't feel like family to him.

Ik we got Steven's dad and such, but I wanna think that his mother died when he was like,, five. And if he's being honest, he was closer to his mother than his father. She was nice yknow, she was so supportive of him, and was the one to give him his Beldum, telling him that hey even tho he's not ten yet, she's sure having the company of pkmn wouldn't make him that lonely while she and Joseph are out on meetings. But ofc, his mother got killed, it changed his father, got every reminder of her in their house hidden from sight, as he didn't want more reminders that the love of his life is gone now. That kinda messed Steven's relationship w his father, but like, yknow years later, they finally had a talk abt it, so it's kinda,, it's kinda good now at least hahaha

Leon's dad,, idk, I imagine him as the type to tell his kids he's just gonna get some milk from the store and hasn't returned since. Mfer doesn't even know Hop is his kid💀 so ofc Leon doesn't like him, he just left him and his mom while she was pregnant w Hop, and before Hop was born he already left. I do wanna say when Leon became more and more famous, his father tried to reconcile w his family, but Leon didn't accept him ofc he didn't, he knows his father is just back bc Leon has the fame and fortune now.

Hau's mom is dead, but his father is still around he's just pretty neglectful. After the death of his mother, his father started avoiding him like the plague, leaving him w Hala. Hala didn't like how his own son just left Hau, but if he won't take care of Hau then he will, he'd rather not want his own grandson to follow in his son's footstep. Hau never really thinks abt them much, not like it matters anyways, he knows nothing will change, so he's just living w it. He has to admit tho, whenever he sees others being w their family he gets kinda jealous, but he just has to swallow his sadness, he'd rather not want to feel it.

Iris' parents left her in Blackthorn do I have to explain this hahahah like, mfers really saw their kid and dipped the fuck outta there. Idk,, idk if this is too angsty, but I also imagine that her parents were young. Like, late teens maybe, or just early twenties, when they had her, and ofc they didn't want to be parents just yet so they left her in Blackthorn, leaving behind their kid who they believed they couldn't take care of. Iris never knew them, she didn't care much, she's happy rn w Drayden and the Unova League, they're her family now, even the other Champions are her family. But if her actual parents did recognize her, and told her they're her actual parents idk,, I want her to be mad at them, and like,, avoid them as much as she can too. Like maybe they changed, yknow, but for Iris it's already too later, maybe they just wanna be close to her now bc she's the Champion.

Geeta's parents are smth bc they're both really supportive but also extremely judgemental of her. Like, they support her on becoming a trainer and even supported her dream in becoming Paldea's first Champion, but they also don't fucking like how she's friends w what they call commoners. Dia is probs the only friend she had that they ever thought would be perfect for her, bc ofc, Dia was also rich. But yknow, the more Geeta defied them, the more expectations they placed on to her, and the more she was bending over backwards to reach those expectations, the more pissed her parents became. Like, telling her that if she won't cut ties w her friends, then they'd just give her her inheritance and make her leave their own home, letting her provide for herself, and they'd just watch as she'd waste the money they gave her. Ofc, Geeta never wasted it, she knows how to handle money, and became a bit more successful than her folks. They really don't talk much anymore, they'd pass each other a few times, but Geeta would never talk to them. I also wanna add that they're kinda the reason Geeta has troubles w empathy and sympathy and all that, bc they taught her to look down on people who aren't in their level, and she kinda internalised that to the point she really couldn't feel much for a lot of people. She is breaking that chain tho, she knows it's not a good mindset, but sometimes she just slips and falls back, but still, she's trying.

#looking back on this steven really do be the only one w somewhat decent parents cbmxnd hahah #unfortunately one of em is dead #but hey hahaha #love how all of them had some sort of parent issues too that really shaped them as people huh hahah #watch as i psychoanalyze them now— hahahah #pokemon champions #pokemon hcs #an ask and an answer #jerseyk112

[bxrningdragxn]

My Steven Stone Headcanons! <3

Just felt like typing these out tbh lol, should I share some for other characters too?

idk we’ll see

anyway, let’s get to it! :D  ✰ ~

He’s asexual biromantic :)

He realised he was bi pretty early on in his life, but didn’t realise he was ace until after he turned 20

transmasc !! I don’t take criticism on this,,,, like just look at the guy and tell me it’s not true

Yeah he knew this since he was a kid

His dad is very supportive btw, incase anyone was wondering

Used to be really shy as a kid

he loved exploring new places but hated people

as an adult he’s still not the biggest fan of a huge crowd, but he’ll put on a smile and attempt to make conversation

he just perfers smaller hangouts with close friends (and I can’t blame the guy for that)

Metagross was his first pokemon

his dad got him a Beldum as a kid

A shiny one! I love that they gave him a shiny metagross in the anime, so like, I’m going with that one lol

He became champion at a ridicioulusly young age, he was 12

a lot of people used to think he just got handed the title, or his father payed the league to make him a champion, eventually he managed to prove that he earned the title himself

Childhood friends with Wallace, Lance & Cynthia

except he didn’t meet them at the same time

He met Wallace during his journey through Hoenn, when he was 10 and Wallace was 11

He just happened to run into a kid with a feebas, they seemed to be training

Wallace told him about contests, Steven seemed slightly interested but when asked if he wanted to join he quickly refused

those two would run into each other more often throughout their journeys, becoming closer each time

He met Lance first as a kid, he was 10 and Lance was 12

They became rivals/friends quickly

They weren’t together often, with both of them being from different regions

but when they were they’d get into a lot of trouble together

When Steven became champion Lance already had his title, so his friend helped him out a lot

He met Cynthia when they were both 13

He was a bit intimidated by her at first

especially since she didn’t open up to him quickly

but they soon became close friends and rivals

He was ecstatic when those two became champions of Kanto/Johto and Sinnoh

They became a trio soon after

Sucks at naming pokemon, like actually sucks at it, it’s why he doesn’t name them lol

His pokemon do have nicknames, but they were named by friends, by which I mean Wallace, just Wallace

except Metagross, that’s the only pokemon Steven nicknamed himself

Honestly at the time of writing this I still haven’t figured out a nickname yet, I was thinking Osmi, short for Osmium, I just like the way it sounds lol 

Also Osmium is a type of metal, so like, it fits :)

I’m gonna say this now, since I’m about to talk about ships, but I’m not an originshipper, sorry :P

They’re cute but idk I just don’t ship it lol

I like neochampionshipping better

the lack of content for these is criminal

anyway, Steven fell first

but Lance fell harder

Except both of them are idiots who fail to see the other likes them back, despite the other making it blatantly obvious

these oblivious lil shits I swear-

Steven always vents to Wallace or Diantha about it

Both of them can genuinely not believe that Steven and Lance aren’t a thing yet

Steven ends up confessing first btw

And because Lance is a flustered moron who took too long to react, it could’ve gone very wrong very quickly

Because the lack of reaction made Steven think he didn’t like him back

but like they quickly resolve that

Honestly I could go on about those two but I don’t want this to become a ship headcanon list

Outsiders seem to think Steven is the smart one of the group

he’s not

He may occasionaly borrow the single shared braincell from Diantha

but apart from those (rare) moments this man is absolute disaster

He can spend hours at a time in his home office studying geology

he will be so occupied with it he will forget to take care of himself, because rocks are more important

The others have made it a thing to barge in and drag him out of there from time to time

or like, at least call him to remind him to drink water instead of playing with rocks 24/7

“That rock looks pretty” - literally anyone

“actually-” *proceeds to infodump about it* - Steven

He likes cartoons

will definitely end up burning the kitchen down when cooking

but is somehow really great at baking???

I don’t think he’s a huge sweet tooth but he’s definitely addicted to chocolate

I refuse to believe he’s not a dog person

I want to believe he has a lycanroc

He’s surprisingly good at video games

He doesn’t pay often though, perfers to do other things

but like if someone asks him to play with them he will

He has this specific face he makes when he’s angry and it tends to scare the others

It takes a lot to make Steven angry

I imagine him to be insanely patient

He just wants to be left alone with his rocks

He has a tiny aron he takes with him to caves and stuff, creatively named Spot

Spot was named by my oc Robin, but I don’t really wanna get into specifics about them

What I will say about Steven & Robin’s relationship is that he’s a bit of a mentor to them

but yeah that’s all I’m saying about Robin, they’re not really relevant to this post lol

Honestly this list is already pretty long imo, so I’ll leave it here lol

cya next time I guess ✰ ~

The Champion's Pokémon

Lance's main dragonite, Vernon, is generally pretty stern. He's also the oldest of Lance's pokémon, and acts like a father figure to the rest of them, often keeping them in line, but is still very caring. However, he's still a fierce fighter, and Lance's most trusted companion. The name Vernon comes from Wyvern, and also the home of George Washington, the first president of the US.

While most Metagross tend to be cold or aggressive, Lazuli is just the opposite. Steven's Metagross is incredibly sweet and patient, and loves to be pet. They're very gentle unless they're in a battle or around someone they deem dangerous. For unknown reasons, they also love children, which is an issue because most children are terrified of them. They're sort of like a giant puppy. Lazuli comes from Lapis Lazuli, a precious mineral known for its blue color.

If Lazuli is a puppy, then Mio is a cat. Milotic are known for being gentle, caring pokémon. While Mio is very kind to her trainer, Wallace, she's sassy and borderline vicious to nearly anyone else. She's very protective and takes a while to warm up to people, and for good reason given all they've gone through together. She's been known to bite and strike if someone she doesn't trust gets too close to her trainer. Mio's a name I use a lot when designing characters, and it stuck for her.

Cynthia's Garchomp Seliah is perhaps the strongest Pokémon in the region. She loves a good battle, but she's also Cynthia's closest friend. The two of them have an incredible bond, and it's said that she knows Cynthia better than anyone else, and knows even her trainer's darkest secrets. Seliah comes from Seilah, who was a minor villain in the Tartaros arc of the anime Fairy Tail.

Although he's technically not that old for a Volcarona, Ishmael is a wise soul. Generally calm and quiet, he's very patient and good-tempered. However, he's a good fighter nonetheless. He does have a tendency to get lost in thought though, and is quite the daydreamer. Ishmael comes from the biblical prophet, and also the narrator of Moby Dick.

Nagaia the Haxorus sees Iris more like a little sister than her trainer. Though she's not much older, she sees it as her duty to look out for Iris, and does a good job of it. She's incredibly loyal, and will listen to any command she's given, so long as she believes it's in her trainer's best interest. Nagaia is a combonation of the words Naga, a being from multiple eastern religions, and Gaia, the mother earth in Greek mythology

Adria is a kind soul who's always willing to lend an ear, especially to her trainer, Diantha. She tries her best to lighten the burden of being such an influential figure, and is one of the few people her trainer feels she can confide in. She's very gentle, but also tends to be rather reserved. Although she is a good fighter, she doesn't enjoy it nearly as much as the other champion's pokémon do. Adria comes from the Adriatic Sea, which is to the east of Italy.

Nike is just as hot-blooded and cocky as his trainer, and he's got a bad case of hubris to boot. Though, in all fairness, he's never been knocked out in a battle before. He'd rather spend all his days fighting, and gets frustrated easily when others take breaks for themselves, as he deems it as laziness. Needless to say, he's quite naïve, and also the youngest of the champion's pokémon. Nike is the Goddess of Victory in greek mythology

Returning the favor - tell me something about your interest(s), you seem fun :)

Oh- thank you! Um. Sorry LOL

The guys in my brain are alllll pokemon (except for Ethoslab, who lives here year-round and rent-free), so we're gonna talk about Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver >:)

First off all, I love these games. Love em to pieces. I've had HeartGold since I was like 7, although I kept taking long breaks, forgot the story, and had to start the game over several times >:'D I finally stuck with a save file I started last year, and made it through the whole thing in about 80 hours. I do play a little slower than most, but we'll talk more about the reason for the stupid amount of time it took me now.

First of all, it's very important to understand that I play on a console, not an emulator. No hacks for me. Second of all, grinding in HG/SS is SHIT. It's so bad. It takes SO LONG to level your mons, especially in the postgame. The highest level wild pokemon you can find are ~lvl 50, and they are found only on Mt. Silver. For context: Red's team, who are supposed to be your final-final big battle of the game and located on top of Mt. Silver, are upwards of lvl 80.

This game's actual content, on the other hand, is my second favorite only to the original Unova storyline. These games have a relatively basic storyline, but a LOT of postgame content. You get two whole regions, a callback to the previous protagonists, and quick references to the Hoenn and Sinnoh games, which came out between the original Gold/Silver/Crystal and the HG/SS games. I also adore this game's rival, Silver. (Different from the mountain.) He's mean at first, but only because he's hurting, and he gets a very nice bettering-himself arc (adoptive after figure included)! Said father figure is Lance, the champion of the Indigo League, who I also adore. Back then, dragon types only had one weakness—ice types—and there were only a select few you could get. Unfortunately for him, I caught a Lapras pretty early on and swept his team with her, twice, but still. Dragon types are my favorites, next to dark, ghost, and grass types. (I'm very indecisive.

One last fun fact about me: I love the Chikorita line. The Chikorita line is objectively the worst Johto starter. I kick ass with my Meganium anyways <3

We have to keep remembering: We are only 2 races in.

We have no idea how the rest of this 22 race calendar will turn out. Don’t write off drivers, don’t write off constructors, don’t think this is it for your faves.

People will improve and others will fuck up. Just like testing means nothing, so do these first races.

Some of y'all have terrible takes sometimes.

A lot of people hate Lance and feel like he's taking up a place at Aston Martin, therefore not allowing younger drivers a chance to come up, aka Felipe Drugovich.

If my dream was to be a F1 driver and my father had the money to, not only fund me but buy a racing team to ensure my participation, you will have to pry that seat out of my cold, dead hands.

Lance is still young enough to win a champion if Aston Martin ever got their car together. Alonso could leave the sport for all I care, he's had his time. He even retired. Whoever let him back in should be fired.

I’m fucking pissed.

Sky sports had the audacity to take the W Series coverage from Channel 4 and can’t even show a podium ceremony because of a red flag that cut into the qualifying preshow.

Fuck you Sky Sports. If you’re not going to provide proper coverage, don’t fucking bother.

I’m a bit late, but these are my favourite quotes/moments from Grill The Grid. Not in chronological order

“Ocon is way up here” - Lewis Hamilton

“Really? He claims that?!” - Lance Stroll

“Charles is gonna hate me!” Pierre Gasly

Various renditions of “Tsunoda is down here” - Everyone.

“Then Charles” “No” - Fernando Alonso

“No, he’s not. He’s not. Ask the engineers, I know it.” - Sebastian Vettel

*Charles figuring out how his lie makes no sense because Daniel should be taller than him*

“If they tell you another thing, it’s wrong.” - Esteban Ocon

“Lando?! Lando. Has he had grown spurt since I last saw him because that’s not true.” - Alex Albon

“Mick and Lando are the same height? All behind me? Poor Lando” - Charles Leclerc

“Norris is not towards the bottom then? I think that’s a lie.” - Nicholas Latifi

“Sebastian is 175. He told us 176. Oh. He cheated.” - Mick Schumacher

*Sebastian refusing to believe that Lando is the same height as him.* Same bestie.

*Pierre thinking Lewis was the 5th tallest on the grid*

*Alonso getting scared because they haven’t said his name yet.*

“Go on Yuki.” - Lewis Hamilton, while looking at the floor.

“And Lewis is 190.” - Sebastian Vettel

“So I’m actually like, the 4th tallest driver here. So that’s pretty awesome.” - Lewis Hamilton

A video proving men lie about their height and work place bullying is a thing

Headcanon/Worldbuilding: Life Before Hoenn

Caroline didn't like living in the city, preferring smaller towns - she was born and raised in Mahogany Town, and went to Olivine for a vacation, where she met and fell in love with Norman. Norman worked on the docks, and was very good at his job, so Caroline agreed to move to Olivine to be with him.

She brought a Jolteon with her, while Norman had a Chansey. The two Pokémon... tolerated each other (well, it was more Jolteon tolerating Chansey while Chansey tried to be friends but gave up after a few weeks).

Jolteon did not like May. At all. Still doesn't. No one can figure out why. Jolteon would spark if May got too close to her, which would, in turn, scare the shit out of May.

In order to teach May that Pokémon were not inherently hostile, Norman would take her for walks on Routes 38 and 39, where she could observe trainer battles and docile wild Pokémon. On special father/daughter days, he would take her to the Battle Frontier. These special father/daughter days were the true ignition spark for her love of Pokémon battling.

Max would eventually join them on walks, and Norman reserved special father/son days for the Battle Frontier as well.

Caroline was not too pleased with this, as she dislikes Pokémon battling, but didn't want to stand in the way of her children's happiness.

Norman and Caroline raised their kids with a deep respect of traditions in Johto, which they would carry with them even after the move to Hoenn.

May and Max would spend their days in Olivine running along the docks, climbing up to the top of the lighthouse, and meeting people and Pokémon from all over the world.

When she wasn't with Max, May had a best friend named Aiko.

She and Aiko would stop by the Olivine Gym to watch trainer battles, eagerly planning out their strategies to defeat the gym leader.

May and Max were both worried about Team Rocket. Norman calmed them by telling them about the new strong Pokémon he was raising for a friend in Hoenn - that Team Rocket wouldn't be able to overcome. Thankfully, Team Rocket is taken down before they could expand to Johto, and Lance is - shockingly - defeated by a trainer named Red.

Two years later, when May is eleven years old, Aiko's family quietly and quickly packs up and leaves Johto. Strangely enough, Team Rocket strikes Azaela Town only a few weeks later.

May and Max heard the Rocket executives plea to Giovanni on the radio.

When Lance is defeated by a trainer from New Bark Town, May begins to plan her strategy around defeating them.

Only a few months before she turns twelve, Norman gets the call about the gym leader job in Hoenn.

May is devastated at the thought (because she really, really wants to defeat the champion). To cheer her up, her parents contact Professor Elm and ask if she would be allowed to take one of the Johto starters with her to Hoenn. He obliges, and May selects a Chikorita, whom she names Clover.

Ideas for Legendverse Champions ( not all)

Lance

Is often called "old man" by Cynthia. He is only 3 years older than her.

Generally very stern and straightforward. But also very paternal, a very good source of comfort for the likes of Blue and Silver.

Bc he's very straightforward he didn't immediately notice how Red was handling his new position. He regrets it deeply.

Fucking Dork. Likes puns and capes and sweets and gossip magazines -

^ the puns get worse when he becomes a father ( Silver)

Overall very respected among the leagues. Not entirely sure if he was a champion before Blue, but that's something I'll think about later.

Wallace

Still deciding when or how long Wallace became champion tbh. If it was literally at the end of the magma aqua plot I feel bad bc his reign was so short. But anything longer and I have to figure out how long Steven n Wallace were champions respectively. I'll figure it out eventually

Thanks to Juan he can speak several languages- including his own home dialect

Used to be pretty uptight as a kid. Training with Juan made this rigid exterior melt away but what really speed ran this was meeting Steven motherfucking Stone. Wallace used to hate this man lmao.

Wasn't expecting to be someone Jin goes to for comfort but he'll gladly be a shoulder to lean on for the kid.

Cynthia

I want her to do more in platinum but I dunno what lol

Knows Cyrus from a while ago, but has lost connection with him at some point. She doesn't really blame herself for how he ended up though.

Kinda like Steven in that she enjoys being champion but likes doing her own thing more. She's not irresponsible by any means, but her focuses tend to be elsewhere. Sometimes it seems Lucian is running the league.

I would say in the modern era the champion title went like this: Bertha -> Palmer -> Cynthia. Palmer wasn't really there to help Cynthia with the process of being a champion. While she no longer resents the man, she isn't totally fond of him. She tries not to carry that out on Barry, especially bc the boy just wants to impress his dad.

^ so bc of that, Cynthia really does try to be there for Danica when she champion. It's easy enough bc Danica was literally 11 when she gained the title, so it was moreso Danica having the title, but Cynthia pretty much did everything else. She's perfect by no means- again she likes doing her own thing- but she really is trying.

Used to be very close with her little sister Calypso. But Cynthia's fame is as a blessing as it is a curse. It kinda drove them apart, and Cynthia isn't sure what to do to fix things.

Diantha

The media LOVES pointing out her "rags to riches" backstory. It is true that she wasn't exactly rich when she started out, but she wasn't like. Some dirt poor girl that was finally seen for her talents or some shit. Her life was honestly pretty average. She did have big dreams to make it big one day, but that can go for anyone, no?

Best friends with professor Sycamore. Unsure how they met ( either through childhood or meeting at the legendary evolution guru's training stuff) but they've been close friends ever since. Life kinda prevents them from hanging out as much as they used to, but they try to have monthly- bi monthly meet ups.

Knows karate. Do NOT fuck with her.

Okay that's it I'm tired but still can't sleep so. Bleh.

[crack-canon]

So if you’ve been following me for a while, you’d know that I HC Champion Lance as a father figure to Blue Oak But

Like what if Lance also took up the role of the bride’s father during wedding. So like what if he walked Blue down the isle

Now I’m not sure if grooms do a dance too like a father-daughter dance but what if Lance did that too.
