Ive Recently Been Using Ask Hints For The First Time This Year And Honestly I Find Them Extremely Useful

( @ Ivy ) Hmm…I guess I’ll ask the most obvious question. Shapeshifting is a natural ability for me, but for you it looks like it involves some extra work and even multiple sources, like a humans’ soul. Were you human in a past life, or did you find one on your own? Is the old form of this “soul” the form you take when you change shape or did you mold it into your preferred appearance? - Hana

Mod Note: Ivy's dialogue has been separated for easy understanding. Italics belong to the blue text box while non-italics belong to the red text box. Thank you.

"I was a trainer. An Arceus user or just a human to be exact…" "I'd really rather not speak my name for personal reasons, but it would be a joy to hear it once more." "I wasn't anyone special but I used to be the old East Mouth curator, but that was a very long time ago."

"We would spend so much time together, I really don't think there was ever a time we were apart."

"Everything was perfect..."

"Everything went downhill from there, I thought I had longer, but I was wrong. So very wrong, I was so tired."

"I did everything I could for her. But. It wasn't enough."

"It's not one I happened to pick and choose, It was an impulsive choice I made when I was younger."

"I would never disrespect my old form. Her form... I only added myself to it over the years. Even so. I can't 'mold' it. I just change my appearance. As any human would."

"But, It's still mine and It's still me. I just can't have it all of the time now. At least not forever, as much as I do miss it, being human all the time, I cheated fated, and this is my punishment. So I will accept it, Be as it may." Ivy softly sighed, despite her emotionless exterior she seemed almost... Sad? Though it didn't show for long.

-> Ivy doesn't seem like she wants to talk about it anymore... at least for right now. -> Any questions related will be set aside for later. -> Ivy's profile has been updated.

@???: - Hana, a Very Normal Human™️, stands at a distance, surveying the gym and it’s leader- “Huh…so this is a gym. I’ve heard of these things, where Pokémon trainers challenge leaders in battles and win badges. I know people enjoy these things, but what about the Pokémon? Do they enjoy battling in these challenges? What happens if a Pokémon doesn’t “have what it takes” to keep up with a gyms reputation? Do they get retired or…?”

Hm…?

The child pokes their head out from the bush, watching the other two Pokémon approach them. In their mouth, a large Hercules Beetle gently wriggles about.

…?

Hey. Vulpix. I think I seen this small kit with a big ass Arcanine. He was ranting or something. About being stinky? Him or the kit. I don't know. Maybe you should check it out

???

Wh—

Where?! Tell me where! Please tell me where they are!

Over there?!

( ??? ran ahead! )

Did some adopts for extra cash between asks and com sketching

#4 is currently on hold

{ Previously… }

The child seemed puzzled at the Swirlixs’ response, giving their head a tilt for a moment.

…

Why would it be smaller if I eat a lotta bugs? Should I eat more bugs???

They barely started to think about it when a slice of cheesecake was presented to them, it’s sweet aroma filling their nose and thoughts immediately. It smelled nothing like cheese, but still deliciously sweet and enticing. Leaning forward with their tongue sticking out, they give the treat a curious lick.

You could almost see the moment the sweet taste hit them like a truck, as in the next moment the dessert was gone in a whole bite, almost taking the limb along with it! You’re not entirely sure if they chewed at all with how fast it was eaten.

That was the best cake I’ve ever tasted ever.

Gimmie more? Please?? I want more!

Their eyes were wide and even more dazzling, their tail wagging a mile a minute as they pleaded with the swirlix.

Yeah, I love my dads. Small Dad’s at home while Big Dad’s at work.

Sometimes Big Dad’s gone for a while, but sometimes they’ll bring me snacks when they come back, or they’ll come home for lunch. Small Dad sometimes works at home but sometimes they’ll go into the city to work, so I’ll go to grandmas house so she can look after me.

I like to visit Big Dads’ job with Small Dad, it’s kinda like camping, but no bears…

The Arcanine looked about. This was the last place... right? As he tried to recollect, a throbbing in his head made him grumble under his breath. That Vulpix, a bitter thought as he paused in his search. That Hana actually did something... nice, despite their first encounter. It would be best to quash- something caught his eyes, a small Vulpix kit with a unique fur pigment. A squint. Pink and stardust... "Hey kid where's your parent?"

Admittingly, the child wasn’t expecting the hulking figure of the dog to cast such a wide shadow over them. Had they not realized they were being spoken too, they could’ve mistaken him for a tree, compared to their relative size.

Huh???

Starting from his paws and eventually craning their neck upward until they eventually toppled over, the child would struggle to see who was addressing them, considering they sun shined just behind their shadowed glare. Not bothering to get up, they would give a snort.

“…”

“Why are you so big, and stinky? You smell like dirt poop…”
