MEMORIES[ Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII- ]i had ADHD, PPD, and autism, and developed PTSD after the lab incident. i also struggled a lot with impulse control, but that was a life-long struggle.i was a trans boy who wore a binder pre-mako due to insecurities about my large bust. after the mako, however, i was able to get top surgery. Shinra-funded!i was dating Cloud in my main canon, and was QPPs with Aerith.my Cloud had AVPD and was autistic. he was also trans, some flavor of nonbinary, and struggled a lot with dysphoria. i remember opening up about being trans myself, and he regarded it as a big inspiration.i taught myself how to use a (wooden toy) sword at age 10 back in Gongaga.at age 13 i left on a chocobo to Gongaga for Midgar after a heated argument with my parents. i don’t remember what it was about.i joined SOLDIER shortly after that and quickly moved up in the ranks. by age 16 i was already in 2nd Class. the lower-class SOLDIER uniforms were all so horribly itchy though.Angeal was my dad in a sense? he wasn’t actually my dad but he might as well have been. i called him dad on accident a lot.Angeal was also aromantic in my canon? he wasn’t in a romantic relationship at least.my last squat record was 153, which seems pretty trivial to list, but hey, i’m proud of it.Kunsel and i were pretty close. we were bros.i dated Aerith for a while, but we broke up at some point before Cloud and i got together.Cloud had really soft, feathery hair and i really loved ruffling it. playing with it became a major source of comfort after the labs – a gentle reminder of the soft-hearted person who i was trying so hard to protect.i remember the labs pretty clearly and usually greatly distress myself if i think about it too much. it was pure hell, so please try not to ask about it.it took 49 bullets to kill me.i actually feel really guilty about dying when i did and leaving Cloud like that. i was far too reckless…like the labs, that’s also not a good subject to get me started on though.i didn’t die nearly as “gracefully” as i did in Crisis Core. i was breaking down, fast, not sure what to say to help Cloud through what was happening but i had to try, i had to do everything i could to save Cloud’s life. that’s all i wanted. for Cloud to be happy and make it out alive. nothing else mattered. but god, i was still so selfishly afraid. i didn’t know how to process any of it and was trying my best to hold it together and stay strong for Cloud’s sake even though i knew my time was up and i wouldn’t have another chance. if Cloud hadn’t been there i would’ve been a choking, sobbing mess, honestly, but i couldn’t. i couldn’t let Cloud see that.i had an alternate canon where i was rescued and resuscitated by the Turks, with Cissnei at their head. this process was, however, a very long one, and i was comatose until shortly after the events of FFVII. eventually in this canon after i recovered, and reconnected with the team. Cloud, Aerith, Tifa, and i were polyamorous together.-
[ Final Fantasy VII ]i wasn’t really there per se, but i clearly remember everything that happened, and the best explanation i have is that i watched from the Lifestream.i occasionally joined the party as a ghost, though i’m certain my presence went mostly unnoticed except for during select moments.Aerith and Tifa were dating and they were so sweet and affectionate towards each other. it was soft and heartwarming to watch.Cloud definitely seemed affected by what had happened. there were some pretty drastic changes to how he handled things and carried himself that didn’t quite match up with how i remembered him when i was there. it worried me, for sure, but i wasn’t sure what to do to help.i’m eternally grateful to Tifa for helping Cloud sort out his memories and i owe her my life, several times over.Tifa was buff and could bench press anyone. she was also a girl-lovin’ sapphic.in my alternate canon, i awoke directly after the events of FFVII, and greeted Cloud and company upon their arrival at Midgar. Aerith also somehow managed to take on a physical form again temporarily (due to her power over the Lifestream) and was with me to greet them. it was a joyous, tear-filled reunion with a lot of high emotions and hugging to go around.-
[ Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children ]i saw the whole thing and i knew i had to help, so i did my best to. it was the least i could do, honestly, and i would’ve done more in a heartbeat (if i still had one and was able to).in my alternate canon, Cloud and i raised Denzel together after the events of the movie, with some extra help from Tifa. Aerith also visited from the Lifestream, either in her temporary physical form, or as a “ghost”.-
[ Final Fantasy VII Remake ]i told y’all i had a canon where i lived. i did not expect this kind of validation from canon-canon.i toted Cloud with me back to Midgar after surviving the “final stand”. i think i have a couple split canons here too because i remember taking part in AVALANCHE activities/plot stuff, but also doing my own separate thing.reuniting with Aerith was super emotional. hello!!! hello bestie!!! yes i am alive how are you!!!this might’ve been the Zack/Cloud/Aerith/Tifa polyship canon come to think of it, but i did have one that was just me and Cloud together.Barret was really cool, though he and i definitely butted heads at first because of my affiliation with SOLDIER. when i explained how i had been used by them and had defected, though, he realized we were on the same side after all. i was also able to provide valuable intel that only a Shinra insider would’ve had, which was definitely a perk.-
[ Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep ]it’s all pretty fuzzy but i remember mostly just training in the Coliseum.Cloud was there too at some point? he kept his helmet on most of the time and was kinda nervous, a lot like in Crisis Core canon.i was only about 15. Cloud was roughly 14.

MEMORIES[ Sonic the Hedgehog ]Silver was actually a nickname given to me by both Blaze and Gold! my birthname was Venice, like in the initial concepts. i really liked Silver though, and it stuck, so eventually i just dropped my old name in favor of that.i was a trans nb demiboy on the ace spectrum, but i think conceptually, i was attracted to guys. i didn’t date anyone though, as far as i’m aware. i did have some crushes though - that much was apparent. the strong contenders for this were Knuckles, Espio, Sonic, and even Shadow to an extent.i was autistic and had PTSD and PPD. i struggled a lot with picking up on social cues and sarcasm especially, and my impulse control left…something to be desired. i was very gullible and naive, but to be fair, that was more just my personality than anything else.despite conflicting statements made in-game, my psychic abilities were mostly limited to psychokinesis and telekinesis - i didn’t have ESP. parapsychology in general was a huge fascination of mine, however (likely a special interest).my particular canon follows the games and the IDW comics. i’m not sure about most other canons, but i’m figuring it out!my parents were a time goddess who took the form of a hedgehog named Platinum, and her butch farmer wife, a cockatoo whose name i think was Sunny. i inherited minor time-related abilities from my mother, but mostly just being able to go back and forth in time.Gold was my biological half-sister through Platinum, i believe. we chose the names "Silver" and "Gold" to match our mother, and each other.i remember the events of Sonic 06, despite how the game ended. i always thought it was just a very surreal but recurring dream, but i now recognize it for what it was - at least, in this lifetime.yes, i did chill out a lot post-06. those were hard times and i gradually became a much more relaxed, optimistic person - the future’s what you make of it, after all. literally.Sonic and the gang were very readily accepting of my whole turn-around post-06 and we pretty much started over, re-introducing ourselves. that was partially because of how 06 ended, and partially because we genuinely wanted a fresh start where i…wasn’t out for blood.i got along fairly well with Sonic, Knuckles, Tails, and Blaze. i also hung out with Espio, Vector, and Amy some too. i had a lot of respect for the whole main crew!Shadow always gave off the vibe that he inherently disliked me, but that’s just how he was to anyone he hadn’t warmed up to yet. i can assure you that his kicks hurt, though (thanks, Shads). i’m not sure if he ever fully warmed up to me - he was always very distant, seeming pretty lost in thought, and usually acted a bit prickly (haha) whenever i approached him. I certainly would have liked to have been closer, though - i respected his dedication.really, dedication and devotion to a cause were very big things that i respected. to be willing to sacrifice anything to do or protect something or someone was important to you? i could empathize with that deeply. to be honest though, i was always…very afraid and anxious that i wasn’t willing to give up enough to save my future, that i myself just wasn’t enough, and that i needed to be more than i was. so it was easy for me to idolize others who seemed outwardly flawless in those regards, i guess.time travel as a concept is rather fickle, at least how it’s shown in most media. for my canon, when i would go back into the past and later return to the future, i would automatically be returned to the point directly before whatever bad thing i helped to prevent was supposed to happen. think of it like resetting and reloading a video game - it was an actual do-over, but for real life. beyond that however, i don’t really like to consider all of the nuances of time travel because it really makes my head hurt.on a related note, i got headaches and migraines pretty easily, especially when i overexerted my psychic abilities. sometimes, this could be very, very inconvenient - especially if, say, i was helping give Shadow a boost to attack higher up from, and, well, hypothetically speaking, a migraine just so happened to hit me hard, temporarily disabling my ability to continue with my telekinesis. Shadow…didn’t really appreciate that. in theory, of course.i was the fluffiest hedgehog of the main crew and very proud of that fact. Blaze didn’t understand why, but that’s okay. unfortunately, this also meant that i shed my quills the most. Amy sometimes scolded me for that back at the Resistance HQ, but eventually gave up, knowing full well that we had much more important things to worry about. i did try to be courteous, though!i butted heads with Sonic on occasion at first, but we had more of a friendly rivalry than anything. he was better about thinking critically on things than i was though, and would often help me to reason through why i shouldn’t just believe everything i was told. i respected that, even if he could be pretty cocky. we were pretty close after the events of 06, and especially during and after Forces.not to be grim, but i think the fact that i’d witnessed Sonic almost die twice at that point really struck a chord with me - it made me realize that there was more than just my future at stake, and that i should take the time i had in this present, Sonic’s present, to fully get to know and appreciate everyone and what we were truly fighting for.i didn’t get many chances to interact with Knuckles myself until the events of Sonic Forces, especially because he was pretty wary of me until then, but he was also someone i looked up to. despite being a bit hotheaded and often being depicted as dimwitted, he was an incredibly determined guy. he was stubborn, but loyal as they come, and he would do anything to protect the things important to him. i really did idolize him, probably the most of all - and i probably did have a crush on him at some point, but i never would have admitted it, honestly. i think he also struggled with paranoia, but we never really talked about it beyond him very blatantly hinting it.Blaze was my best friend and sister figure, and we were incredibly close. we trained a lot together when it seemed necessary, her with her pyrokinesis and me with my psychokinesis. we also practiced meditation, as well as a variety of relaxation techniques. she really helped to guide me in the right direction with most things in my life, and she was full of wisdom beyond her years, despite her more modest and reserved nature.Marine, Blaze, and i were are own little trio of sorts, and i feel so sorry for Blaze because she was the only word of wisdom we chaotic dumbasses had at all. we were kind of like a weird family of sorts? and naturally, Blaze watched out for us.i remember hanging out with Tails on several afternoons. he often asked about the technology we had in the future, and i would answer to the best of my ability. he was completely fascinated by that stuff, and he always wanted to learn more, sometimes even going as far as to try to replicate things i had spoken of. Most of it even worked, too. it was wildly impressive. Tails was Sonic’s adoptive little sibling, pretty much, and was usually hanging out around him or Shadow - Tails and Sonic were pretty much inseparable. Tails also often wore goggles or pilot headgear like his Boom counterpart.Espio was always very quiet, and i think i was just too loud in comparison. he preferred stealth and planning, and i preferred immediate action and improvisation. needless to say, we weren’t really the best to partner up at first, but despite our apparent incompatibility, we could work together fairly well in a pinch - we just needed to understand each others’ styles.i tended to fly or float more than i did run, honestly - not as a way of showing off, but because i had a bit of a limp due to an accident in my future involving some heroics gone wrong, and didn’t really want anyone to know. i was also one of the slower runners, especially when compared to Sonic or Shadow - but really, who wasn’t slow compared to them?i’m actually not sure how prevalent psychic abilities were in my future. my eyes sometimes glowed bright cyan when my psychic abilities were in use. i often found myself to be pretty alone most of the time, and i’m not sure if that was because there were less inhabitants or just my own anxiety-induced introversion. i do know that my abilities were considered “exceptional”, and as a young child, i often tried very proudly to use them to help people in need. i always wanted to be seen as helpful and…well, heroic. that mindset stuck with me throughout my entire life, even post-destruction.admittedly, i had a bit of hero complex, and as a result i tended to be more reckless than i probably should have ever been. this only seemed to get more out of hand as i grew older, resulting in, well, Sonic 06 as we know it.Sonic was a trans guy with ADHD, Amy was bi, Tails was nonbinary and autistic, Tangle was a butch lesbian, Shadow was nonbinary and had PTSD, Espio and Charmy were nonbinary, Knuckles was bi and pretty oblivious, Whisper was on the aroace spectrum and had AVPD, PTSD, and was selectively mute, and i’m not sure about Rouge but she definitely had a preference for ladies. i don’t remember specifics about these things for anyone else.i remember encountering Tikal (in some form) at some point in the Mystic Ruins. i don’t remember all of what happened in that instance - just that Knuckles was fairly skeptical at first, because it was rather odd.i mostly slept on my stomach because of how my quills were arranged. typically i’d do something more akin to the typical real world “hedgehog curling into a ball” thing, but some nights i was just too exhausted to put forth even that much effort.i distinctly remember having a jacket or hoodie with a really fluffy fleece lining that was given to me during a “secret santa” kind of deal with the others back at Resistance HQ. Shadow left the room right i was opening it “to get more coffee”, but something about the look on his face that he tried to stifle told me that it was a gift from him, and that he really did care about me to some extent, even as cold as he acted. i wore it everywhere during the colder seasons - i adored the texture, like a nice warm blanket. Blaze teased me about “being too fluffy” because of that and my fur.Mighty and Ray existed. i couldn’t tell you much beyond that, though - at least not right now.i don’t know what ships (if any) happened, but Sonic was pretty close with Shadow, to the point that if Sonic was unavailable for some reason, Tails would usually hang out around him instead. Sonic and Shadow may have dated. then again, i also have a feeling that Sonic and Knuckles were together, so i really don’t know. Tangle definitely had a crush on Blaze, at the very least. i get the feeling Blaze dated her and Amy both, but i’m not sure.Chao Gardens! Chao Gardens! CHAO GARDENS!!! i raised a hero chao from my very own egg i found while out adventuring and was so proud. Sonic, Cream, and Tails showed me how to properly care for a chao, or at least the basics of it, and i very excitedly took it up myself. i named them Frosty because of the prominent whites and blues of their coloring.Maria existed either as a ghost alongside Tikal, or was reincarnated as a chinchilla (alongside Tikal, albeit still an echidna). i’m not entirely sure which.Gold the Tenrec was like a sister to me. likewise, a lot of Archie-established family members existed, like Matilda the Armadillo and Nic the Weasel. Sonia and Manic too, i think, but they were usually away in a big city somewhere i think.in addition to the established Team Heroes, Team Dark, Team Hooligan, and Team Rose, there were some changes. Team Chaotix also included Mighty, Ray, and sometimes Knuckles. Team Rose also included Cheese, Froggy, Omochao, and fairly frequently, Sticks. we had Team Sol - made up of myself, Marine, and Blaze; Team Classic - Honey, Mighty, and Ray; Team Wisp - Whisper, Jewel, Tangle, and the Wisps; Team Emerald - Tikal, Chaos, and Shade; and Team Eggman - Eggman, Metal Sonic, and Infinite. Gadget usually just filled in any unfilled roles.

MEMORIES[ Pokémon Sword & Shield ]Leon was short for “Dandelion”. Leon and Dande were both equally acceptable for me.i was a trans guy. I don’t think that was ever a publicized topic (like so many other aspects of my personal life) however, as i came out long before i was ever the Champion. it wasn’t really a secret though, either; but it was never treated as a big deal. it just…”was”.Sonia was my first rival! i had Scorbunny as a starter, and she chose Sobble. these weren’t our actual first Pokemon though – my Charmander and her Yamper were.we attended some sort of trainer school pre-gym challenge alongside Raihan, Nessa, Piers, and some of the other younger future gym leaders.it was here that Sonia and i started to figure out our goals were different, however; we were still rivals and kept up the cheeky friendly banter, but it was much more casual at this point. my goals were to become the Champion; hers were more to learn about and study Pokemon, although she wasn’t entirely confident in that yet. at that point, Raihan become my main (“true”) rival, as our goals were similar.Raihan and i eventually got together, as did Nessa and Sonia. childhood friends trope strikes again.eventually, after Sonia dropped the gym challenge, Nessa and Milo started up their own (rather one-sided, mostly on Nessa’s end) rivalry.Mustard and Opal were both gym leaders at this time, and i believe Kabu and Melony were as well. i don’t remember who else was there.Hop’s Wooloo was also his first, and i caught it for him before leaving for my journey, pretty much just like these comics.we were always super close, since Hop was just a baby even. he was also very clingy towards me in general – i remember people saying he looked up to me a lot. also, i nicknamed him Hopscotch.i don’t remember whether it was Gloria or Victor who lived in Postwick, or maybe both even? i just remember that Hop became recent friends with one of them just a couple months before the events of the game.i remember very specifically being banned from entering the Slumbering Weald, which, yeah, that was probably a good call honestly. i only went in on a few occasions, tagging along with Sonia (or once, Raihan). if i went in by myself, there’s no telling where i’d end up.that’s something that hasn’t changed between lifetimes but i REALLY WISH HAD. my sense of direction was so horrible that 97% of the time i was relying on Charizard to guide me to places i had even been to or lived before.relatedly, i know our mother had specially helped to train Charmander on directions after one incident– the one that got me banned from the weald –while i was recovering at home in bed for a good week or so. oops?Sonia, Raihan, and sometimes Nessa visited a lot during that time. Hop didn’t want to leave my side. i don’t even really remember the Weald or anything i might’ve encountered, quite frankly, and it’s very likely that i hit my head during that event.i was friends more casually with the other gym leaders as time went on! aside from Raihan and Nessa, Piers was probably the closest, followed by Milo. Gordie was just slightly younger than me, Piers, Raihan, and Nessa, but entered not long after us. Allister and Bea came in last, maybe only about a year later at most, and they were super close.i don’t really remember how i got roped into some of Rose’s more scheming plans but they were definitely going on. i don't really have a solid opinion on him in general. it's complicated.i also remember little Marnie being joined at her big bro’s hip practically about when he joined the league. she was very quiet, but straightforward and blunt whenever she DID speak. “your outfit sucks, Mr. Leon” was repeated several times i think.technically i DIDN’T specialize in any specific type, but i liked befriending Pokemon that were dragons or dragon-adjacent. i know i had a Noivern, Dragapult, Appletun, Charizard, and Cinderace.as for pairings: Gloria/Marnie definitely happened, and Victor/Hop, maybe. that or Hop was with Gloria who was polyamorous. addendum: Gloria/Marnie/Hop, Hop/Victor, and Victor/Bede (or Hop/Victor/Bede?) might've been the situation???Hop also came out as agender (he/they) sometime after deciding to study Pokemon and become a professor (working as an assistant under Sonia), which was pretty cool – everyone was super supportive. that’s my little sib!Bede was a trans guy i believe, and Opal before him had been a trans woman. fairy type trainers said trans rights babey!Bede and Hop made up at some point post-game since Bede had been a bit of a punk. Hop held no hard feelings; but he DID have special rights to tease Bede if he ever chose to as compensation.Gloria became the champion – is what i thought at first, but maybe?? both her and Victor did???i also think Klara and Avery became full-fledged gym leaders at some point, and Avery was definitely nonbinary.Marnie also got into music like her brother, and the two did work to combine concert gigs and battles like Piers was considering in some of his post-rematch talks.i remember chilling out at the Hulbury lighthouse a lot with Sonia, Nessa, and Raihan, especially at night when we could watch the stars. it was a good and cozy way we had of relaxing.uhhh. i remember taking my loss as champion pretty hard on the inside, but i was a CHAMP at not showing it and just generally being a good sport about it! it was only afterwards and after Rose’s whole mess that i really actually had time to reflect on those feelings.uh, weird note here, but this specifically and also about 99% of this artist’s other SwSh content (aside from AUs) is eerily in-line with my exact canon.Raihan and i might've dated Piers at some point too. Piers was transmasc nonbinary. "genderpunk" was the term he used, quite suitably.voice-wise, Leon's portrayal in Masters is spot-on, exactly how i sounded. Raihan was like a cross between his Masters and anime appearances -- a strong, clear (and accented) voice, but with more of a gravelly growl to it, especially noticable in battles or when he was fired up about things. Sonia sounded completely different from the anime, but i'm not sure how to describe it. Marnie and Piers' Masters voices are about right too.Piers' singing voice sounded basically exactly like this, this, and this, particularly this singer's lower/deeper octaves. his style of music dabbled in a bit of everything. Marnie also sang sometimes, but i haven't quite pinned down a similar sound to hers.Twilight Wings was also a part of my canon, as were the events of the main anime. if i had a Masters timeline, it was separate from my main. Pasio's so confusing to me.

I don’t think that was ever a publicized topic (like so many other aspects of my personal life) however, as i came out long before i was ever the Champion. it wasn’t really a secret though, either; but it was never treated as a big deal. it just…”was”.Sonia was my first rival! i had Scorbunny as a starter, and she chose Sobble. these weren’t our actual first Pokemon though – my Charmander and her Yamper were.we attended some sort of trainer school pre-gym challenge alongside Raihan, Nessa, Piers, and some of the other younger future gym leaders.it was here that Sonia and i started to figure out our goals were different, however; we were still rivals and kept up the cheeky friendly banter, but it was much more casual at this point. my goals were to become the Champion; hers were more to learn about and study Pokemon, although she wasn’t entirely confident in that yet. at that point, Raihan become my main (“true”) rival, as our goals were similar.Raihan and i eventually got together, as did Nessa and Sonia. childhood friends trope strikes again.eventually, after Sonia dropped the gym challenge, Nessa and Milo started up their own (rather one-sided, mostly on Nessa’s end) rivalry.Mustard and Opal were both gym leaders at this time, and i believe Kabu and Melony were as well. i don’t remember who else was there.Hop’s Wooloo was also his first, and i caught it for him before leaving for my journey, pretty much just like these comics.we were always super close, since Hop was just a baby even. he was also very clingy towards me in general – i remember people saying he looked up to me a lot. also, i nicknamed him Hopscotch.i don’t remember whether it was Gloria or Victor who lived in Postwick, or maybe both even? i just remember that Hop became recent friends with one of them just a couple months before the events of the game.i remember very specifically being banned from entering the Slumbering Weald, which, yeah, that was probably a good call honestly. i only went in on a few occasions, tagging along with Sonia (or once, Raihan). if i went in by myself, there’s no telling where i’d end up.that’s something that hasn’t changed between lifetimes but i REALLY WISH HAD. my sense of direction was so horrible that 97% of the time i was relying on Charizard to guide me to places i had even been to or lived before.relatedly, i know our mother had specially helped to train Charmander on directions after one incident– the one that got me banned from the weald –while i was recovering at home in bed for a good week or so. oops?Sonia, Raihan, and sometimes Nessa visited a lot during that time. Hop didn’t want to leave my side. i don’t even really remember the Weald or anything i might’ve encountered, quite frankly, and it’s very likely that i hit my head during that event.i was friends more casually with the other gym leaders as time went on! aside from Raihan and Nessa, Piers was probably the closest, followed by Milo. Gordie was just slightly younger than me, Piers, Raihan, and Nessa, but entered not long after us. Allister and Bea came in last, maybe only about a year later at most, and they were super close.i don’t really remember how i got roped into some of Rose’s more scheming plans but they were definitely going on. i don't really have a solid opinion on him in general. it's complicated.i also remember little Marnie being joined at her big bro’s hip practically about when he joined the league. she was very quiet, but straightforward and blunt whenever she DID speak. “your outfit sucks, Mr. Leon” was repeated several times i think.technically i DIDN’T specialize in any specific type, but i liked befriending Pokemon that were dragons or dragon-adjacent. i know i had a Noivern, Dragapult, Appletun, Charizard, and Cinderace.as for pairings: Gloria/Marnie definitely happened, and Victor/Hop, maybe. that or Hop was with Gloria who was polyamorous. addendum: Gloria/Marnie/Hop, Hop/Victor, and Victor/Bede (or Hop/Victor/Bede?) might've been the situation???Hop also came out as agender (he/they) sometime after deciding to study Pokemon and become a professor (working as an assistant under Sonia), which was pretty cool – everyone was super supportive. that’s my little sib!Bede was a trans guy i believe, and Opal before him had been a trans woman. fairy type trainers said trans rights babey!Bede and Hop made up at some point post-game since Bede had been a bit of a punk. Hop held no hard feelings; but he DID have special rights to tease Bede if he ever chose to as compensation.Gloria became the champion – is what i thought at first, but maybe?? both her and Victor did???i also think Klara and Avery became full-fledged gym leaders at some point, and Avery was definitely nonbinary.Marnie also got into music like her brother, and the two did work to combine concert gigs and battles like Piers was considering in some of his post-rematch talks.i remember chilling out at the Hulbury lighthouse a lot with Sonia, Nessa, and Raihan, especially at night when we could watch the stars. it was a good and cozy way we had of relaxing.uhhh. i remember taking my loss as champion pretty hard on the inside, but i was a CHAMP at not showing it and just generally being a good sport about it! it was only afterwards and after Rose’s whole mess that i really actually had time to reflect on those feelings.uh, weird note here, but this specifically and also about 99% of this artist’s other SwSh content (aside from AUs) is eerily in-line with my exact canon.Raihan and i might've dated Piers at some point too. Piers was transmasc nonbinary. "genderpunk" was the term he used, quite suitably.voice-wise, Leon's portrayal in Masters is spot-on, exactly how i sounded. Raihan was like a cross between his Masters and anime appearances -- a strong, clear (and accented) voice, but with more of a gravelly growl to it, especially noticable in battles or when he was fired up about things. Sonia sounded completely different from the anime, but i'm not sure how to describe it. Marnie and Piers' Masters voices are about right too.Piers' singing voice sounded basically exactly like this, this, and this, particularly this singer's lower/deeper octaves. his style of music dabbled in a bit of everything. Marnie also sang sometimes, but i haven't quite pinned down a similar sound to hers.Twilight Wings was also a part of my canon, as were the events of the main anime. if i had a Masters timeline, it was separate from my main. Pasio's so confusing to me.
