AN IMPORTANT NOTE TO MY FANS, PLEASE READ:

(Okay, I'm really sorry about not updating anything. I've been sick and tired and mentally unstable and conflicted and confused. I promise you the best I can from now on. Please try to work with me, because sometimes I get sick or depressed and I can't write. I am truly sorry.)

MORE NOTES: Okay, I'm working on a FULL fic. A Kingdom Hearts fic that won't be up until I'm completely done and it's beta-ed. I'll try to put up a chapter of AFR this week to tide you over, but once I finish that fic, it will get updated on a regular basis because it's already written.

So I ask you--would you prefer I write like that, as in finish a fic fully and then update on a regular schedule? There wouldn't be a sliding scale of quality, and it would be practically perfect.

/ThisisthewaytheworldendsnotwithaBANGbutawhimper/

Hullo. My name's Ari. I go by this name only, which will make legally changing it a bitch. /Shrugs/ I'm fourteen, almost fifteen, but I behave like a bitchy twentysomething, which explains why people try to buy me drinks. That, and the D cup. /Smiles/

I have a boyfriend, but I'm not defined by him; I'm my own person. If you must know, his name is Jack, better known around here as Abysswing. I love him, and according to him, I'm perfect. Pfah, if only. But he's stubborn...

However, I'm always right.

I rant a lot. Most of it directed toward the sorry, sorry state of the Pokemon fandom, or Twilight. I have a forum. Farla, stop stalking it. We're nice people there, except you'll prolly get internet-molested by Thorn or Feevee or glomp-molested by SOMEONE. (Yeah, possible side effect of the LTP.)

I love Pokemon; have for almost...wow, twelve years. Since I was three. My favorites are basically all of them; even Tangela, (god not Tangrowth), and Lickitung. Heh, that one's not sexual, I swear.

As implied by the previous comment; I'm a Pokephile. Not really a hardcore AGPNH one, side effect of having a boyfriend I guess, and I'm also bisexual, bipolar, and have many fetishes most of which Jack will never try. /Pouts/

I don't really like TV, mostly because I don't like stupid cartoons that try to be funny, nor do I like sitcoms. If you must know, I like Chowder, (yeah, I don't know why), Criminal Minds, (though it slowly started to suck after Gideon quit), SOME of the Pokemon anime, (most of Sinnoh sucks, some of Johto, /though the rest is genius/ and Hoenn and Kanto are both amazing. Most of Hoenn, anyways. Except for Contestshipping, god.) Also, I do sort-of like the big bang theory and that 70's show. NCIS is good, but I've yet to watch a lot.

I love music. Period. I just love it. I don't really have an obsessive mindset towards any band nowadays, but I still do like The Clash, Regina Spektor, The Dresden Dolls (and Amanda Palmer, by extension), and M.I.A. for most of their songs. I love more than ANY other band The Cure and Siouxsie and the Banshees. If you're a fan, I officially love you. :D I listen to songs more than bands, and I swear I listen to stupid stuff like Pokemon theme songs. I can't help myself. Also showtunes, because who doesn't love Liza freaking Minelli? :D

I don't hate people. I don't bite, nor do I snap. Unless you're a stupid person or generally unfriendly, I can find myself getting along with you easily. There are few people who have geniunely gotten on my bad side, and they have had to either insult my boyfriend or insult any of my family. (This being the people at the LTP.)

Anime? Again, I no longer have the obsessive-weebo-god-I-hate-those-people mindset. But I do appreciate anime, my favorite currently being Death Note. Azumanga Daioh is a close second, 'cause it makes me smile. I love Hellsing too, along with a few random others, but mostly, I read manga. American anime translating is fail.

Manga, then--I started Reborn; I read One Piece, Death Note, (I don't have volumes seven and twelve as I refuse to accept their existence), Azumanga Daioh, Tsubasa, Cardcaptor Sakura, Bizenghast, Hellsing, Black Cat, and a few other random things. PokeSpe is epic, for the record.

I lied--I have an obsessive mindset with shipping. More on that later, but basically, I ship a lot of things. Drives Jack crazy.

I'm gay. Half-gay. Whatever. My point is, I have no problem with homosexuality, transgenderism, genderqueer, or whatever. Have at it. I'm pretty laid-back on shit like this. I mean, I'm a half-gay furry. What do I care?

There's not much to say. Apparently, I'm famous around the Pokemon fandom. I'm cool with that. Doesn't bother me--hell, I barely notice it.

I'm making a Fakemon ROM. Eventually. Once I finish AFR, I think.

I like hugs. I like kisses. I'm blunt. I like innuendo, coffee, apples, sweets, and animals.

And there you are. Not much else you need to know.

Wonderful to meet you, I'm sure. (Blatantly stolen from Jackie's profile.)

:Shippings I support:

I love bitching about them, so here you are.

L/Light-(What? Okay, I don't normally ship practically canon ships, but this one.../shivers/ So epic. And it's cute, too, if done AU and IC. They really just make a good couple.)

Matt/Mello-(One, Matt tops. Two, I don't care Matt's really a side character, he's still more epic than most main characters in half the animes out there because he sexes up Mello. OH YEAH I WENT THERE.)

Matsuda/Mikami--(HI GUYS I SHIP THE IMPOSSIBLE. OHWELL THAR.)

Matsuda/Sayu--(Saw cute little hints of this in the seventh volume. D'awww.)

Matsuda/Soichiro--(This here is whatthefuckey at it's best, folks.)

Near/Mello-(Yeah, see, I ship everything. I don't rabidly ship one ship, so there we go. Besides, this one is cute in a fluffy yet fierce (on Mello's part), way.)

L/Misa--(It's...um...I don't know. But hell, he'd be nicer to her than canon-motherfucker!Light.)

Misa/Rem-(BEST YURI PAIRING EVER. No freaking contest. Sexy. Much sexy.)

Harley/May-(I totally support Cookieshipping, even though I think they're both gay. WTF. It's cute and almost canon in a sense...)

Misty/May-(Uh, I don't know. It's kinna cute though, and I suppose it's there. I mean, they DID meet which is more than I can say for the next one--)

Harley/Dawn-(Mmmyep. I think it's cute is all. No real reason, not a rabid shipper who forces everyone to support it, but it's just cute.)

Harley/Cynthia-(I just made this one up AS I TYPED IT. And it sounds really good. :D I know. Shoot me. But hey.)

Zoey/Dawn-(Dawn is so innocent and shippable. It's just fun to ship her. Plus, this has HINTS~)

Shaymin/Darkrai-(I wrote one of my favorite romance drabbles on this pairing. It's just really cute. Don't have to be Movie!Sheimi and Movie!Darkrai, and besides, two legends you can easily get on the AR without having to add extra cheats~)

Suicune/Entei-(I like Suicune/Raikou, but Entei has forever been put into my mind as a stolid, proud lion-like creature. Blame the third movie. And Suicune also seems like a sensible, stolid type. The wolf and the lion...it seems nice.)

Mewtwo/Jirachi-(This is best as a yaoi pairing because I see Jirachi sorta like Momiji from Fuuruba. So yeah, shota crossdresser and the cold-hearted bastard. :3 It's a cute pairing, you must admit~)

Mew/Giratina-(Yeah, this one is another makes-no-sense pairing. But I like it. See, the ancestor of all Pokemon and Death...it sounds interesting. And it's amusing considering Mew is about a foot long and Giratina is the size of two buses.)

Raikou/Latias-(This one I could see; innocent and carefree pair. I like it.)

Cresselia/Mew-(If it's a sensible, responsible Mew, a proper Mother of the Legends, and the almost-emo sensible Cresselia, it might make sense. Te Legends can all have different personalities, which is what makes shipping them so fun!)

Rayquaza/Latias-(It's cute. I like it for some weird reason, even though my Rayquaza is gay, wut.)

Chiyo/Osaka-(Oh hush, it's cute. Osaka seems like once Chiyo grows up, she could be a fun innocent uke. :3)

Sakaki/Kagura-(They just seem like good friends, and it could grow into something more...)

Sakaki/Chiyo-(...I feel like a pedo. But yeah, I like this one too.)

Jack/Ari-(Yeah. It's canon~ I LOVE YOU, JACK!)

Silver/Game!You!Crystal-(Well, I always picked up vibes. I also had a crush on him, there you go.)

Silver/basically anybody-(He's fun to ship.)

Blue/Yellow-(I so see this as a HAI I R CURUPTING U shipping on Blue's part and I-am-an-innocent-uke on Yellow's part...)

Crystal/Gold-(Yeah... I liked it in PokeSpe for some reason.)

Crystal/Eusine-(See above.)

Gardenia/Cheryl-(I really love Anime!Gardenia, she's so funny. And Cheryl seems like the same kind of person.)

Dawn/Maylene-(HUGE hints of this in the anime.)

Lucario/Mewtwo-(Especially my own. Lucario's female, btw. XD But they can be yaoi. Seriously, especially since the anime!Lucario is just so much like Mewtwo...)

Red/Green-(Yeah, I kinda like it. Reminds me a bit of my own journey.)

OldRivalShipping-(Now THIS really reminds me of my first journey solely because Blue looks a little like me, even...So yeah.)

Suicune/Game!Crystal-(I don't even know. I just think it's cute.)

Gregory Edgeworth/Manfred Von Karma-(Blame Japanese slash sites. Yeah, I know. But hey, it's fun to ship crack!)

Matt Engarde/Juan Corrida- (I love these two, for one thing. Also, I have a really good fic idea in my mind for a backstory to this and why Matt wanted to kill him.../besides rivalry./)

Phoenix Wright/Miles Edgeworth-(Even Jack says it's canon. That's a pretty damn good seal of canonical-ness. Also, tres cute.)

Franziska Von Karma/Adrian Andrews-(LOLCANON. Seriously, I love Franziska and her sexy whip, so yeah. :3)

Dick Gumshoe/Miles Edgeworth-(Erm. Well, they even said they have a trusting relationship. I ship all kinds, man. :3)

And probably some more, but these are the ones that immediately come to mind. If I update this, don't be surprised.

:Quotable Quotes:

"IT'S BELLA STREAKING ACROSS EDWARD'S SKY LIKE A MAGICAL BLINDING METEORITE!"-Me during a chat on the LTP.

"Don't say goodbye like you're burying him, 'cause the world is round and he might return again."--Just like the movies, Regina Spektor. (There is always hope.)

"Don't come to Jersey! No one likes New Jersey! Not even New Jersey!"- Me, again. (It's true.)

"Yeah, if Texas is the asshole of the USA, New Jersey is like, the armpit. We're even in the correct location."-Me. (I love Jersey and all, but hey.)

"I AM THE WALRUS RAGH!"-Me during a sugar high. I don't get caffeine highs, which is taking into account the fact that I have been drinking heavy amounts of sugar-laced coffee for almost eight years.

"I wanna pony! And not just any pony but a UNICORN pony! With WINGS!"-Me. Yes, I am so pathetic as to quote me. Shut up.

"Fine. My middle name...is Edward."- Jack. (BWAHAHAHAHAHA! ...Ahem. I love you, Jackie~)

"I object on the grounds...that this is objectionable!"- Miles Edgeworth, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. (Wheeee! I love Edgeworth~)

"When I write a tell-all memoir, you'll all be so goddamn sorry!"-Me

"I got your 'pocketful of sunshine' right here, bitch!" /middle finger/-Me. You get used to it.

"SOYLENT JESUS IS MADE OF PEEEEOOOPLE!" -Me. (Ever seen Soylent Green? Or heard of that whole 'God is in your mouth as a plain CRACKER' stuff? Yeah. Well...)

"Mad, bad,and dangerous to know, motherf--ker!"-Me

"God is dead, but WHODUNNIT, man?! WHO?!"- Me

"I have geekdar. It's like gaydar, only for geeks!"-Me

"It could be worse. So much worse."--Me.

"I will not go into an explanation as to what I can and can't do with my cock."--Jack. (Lolwut.)

"The world needs a sunrise. Until then, get your flashlights."--Me.

"Two halves of two broken people fit so well together."--Me.

"Sometimes, love is worth whatever price must be paid."--The Black Jewels Trilogy. (Fucking epic series. Read it.)

"WILL GET NAKED FOR COFFEE."--Sign I saw once in NYC. It was just sitting there on the ground. I almost picked it up, too.

This has been updated, since with the introduction of Platinum and a few new plot points, I figured it was time to get off my ass and write it. :D Enjoy~ And beware, there's a lot of these profiles. Most of them will REALLY shine in Error 404, since we don't need to advance a plot or shit like that. :D And you wanna know the worst part? As I upload this, I THINK I AM FORGETTING SOME JESUS CHRIST HOW MANY POKEMON DO I HAVE?!
--

(Ari, Teller, Female)--Some sort of demon, really. Cries at movies, though she won't admit it. Likes homemade waffles. Is a bit...strange. Fiercely protective, completely apathetic towards any suffering of anyone besides those she cares about, (and the poor and downtrodden, but hey.) Fragile, easily slips from happy to sad at a simple comment. Possibly schizophrenic or autistic. A little on the fuckey side. But despite this, she has a true sense of honor and can control her emotions to the point of apathy when needed. Makes perverted jokes. Hides her pain. Wiccan/Agnostic/atheist. She's really not sure.

(Quote: "I cut myself, starved myself, and lived through hell. Bitch, what have YOU done?!")

Theme song: Lenka, The Show. Or, in her more depressive-fuckey moments, Hurt, by Johnny Cash.

Mate/Siblings/Children- Mother, Szeren, brothers, Dante, Kitao, Mikhail, Akira, and Noel; father, Hiromi. Mate of Jack.

Kiddo-(Minor Goddess, female)-Ari’s childhood companion, same as Szeren. But where Szeren and the group taught Ari to love and protect those she cared about, Kiddo taught Ari to hate those that wronged her and to kill all in her way. Frankly, they’re not bad lessons, but with Kiddo, Ari’s power is intensified and she turns into a murder machine, capable of killing anyone and anything that comes to her attention. Also, lesbian. Sorta. Maybe. She's not telling, and if you ask, she'll kill you. Theme Song: Inside the Fire, by Disturbed. (Quote: “There’s darkness in her heart, Charizard; not even you can deny it.”)

Mate/Siblings/Children--Technically related to the Muses, Meem, Deb, and Percival, and mate of Ichigo.

Deb--(Muse, female? Takes female form, anyways.)--Ari. Quite seriously. She's the same ballsy, brash sort of person, but instead of being half-crazy half-sane, she's just all drunk. Or something. She doesn't take her job as seriously as Percival or Meem, but it helps her stay detached from the situation at hand. Might be the strongest of all the Muses, but she rarely exercises that power. Looks sort of like Death from The Sandman, only all white and with a mohawk instead of that awesome 'do. Is actually a figment of Ari's imagination; one of her imaginary friends she created. Literally. She was the one who brought the Muses into their current appearances.

Mate/Siblings/Children--Mate of Percival, (and they're bro and sis too, which just adds to the awesome~), and sister to Meem. No kids.

Meem--(Male form, Muse)--Looks like Destiny from the Sandman. Again, Ari's fault. Blind, but can see the future. Percival and Deb both have a great respect for him. Quiet.

Mate/Siblings/Children--Sibling to Percival and Deb.
--

Percival--(Male form, Muse)--Ari's personal favorite when she was young, he is a stuffy butler who I always imagine as looking like the Castle Valet in Pokemon, Cochran or Darach or whatever. Anyways, he looks like that without the yellowy streak of hair. He's the exact opposite of Deb; polite and forthcoming, does not drink. Fondness for rules. Kind of like Mr. Herriman.

Mate/Siblings/Children--Mate of Deb, sibling of Meem and DEB~

Szeren-(Charizard, Female)-The mother of the entire group, but especially to Ari, who has an almost unhealthy love for her. A bossy mother hen with a temper and amazing battle prowess, she is unusually large for a Charizard, with a height of seven feet eight inches, and a wingspan of eight and a half feet. Sworn enemy of Kiddo, and probably the most torn on the issue of her disposal. She has a bit of a neat streak, and, since Ari has chosen Jack as a mate, sworn to eternal hatred of the teen. Signature Move: Dragonthrower. /A combo of Dragon Pulse and Flamethrower./ Theme Song: Your Guardian Angel, by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus.

(Quote: “And do you know WHY? Because she loved us! We gave her all we had; in return, she gave us undying devotion!”)

Mates/Siblings/Children- Dave, Blastoise, as a mate, Dante her son, and Ari, her daughter. Has a brother, Santi; Ash/RED’s Charizard. /Long story./

Kitao-(Swampert, Male)-Ari’s Hoenn Starter and first Contest champion Pokemon. According to Ari, he’s a bossy, overprotective bully, but after what he’s seen Ari do to herself under the influence of mental instability, he has every right to be. Signature Move: Frozenfissure and Swampfissure: F-Fissure opens a crack in the battlefield with Earthquake, then fills it with water and freezes it with Ice Beam, trapping the Pokemon inside. S-Fissure is the same thing, only without Ice Beam. Theme Song: Grand Theft Autumn/Where is your Boy, by Fall Out Boy.

(Quote: “If we die from those Corsola, I’ll kill you, Ari!”) /...It’s a very long story./

Mates/Children/Siblings. No mate, adopted father of Gabriel and Dumas the MUDKEEPZ. No siblings.

Amaranth-(Female, Glaceon)-A painfully young girl, less than five months old. She is a Contest Champion, as her mother and father were, a Glaceon and Leafeon called Azrael and Vengeance. Very sweet and naive, she is part of the duo that has any control of Ari’s ‘darker half’, Kiddo. Signature Move: Blizzard Dance: A mixture of Hail, Blizzard, Mirror Coat, Iron Tail, and Ice Shard. The Mirror Coat puts up a large wall surrounding both Amaranth and the opponent, Hail falls to disguise Amaranth, and a Blizzard attack is formed out of the hail into a giant wall. Ice Shard embeds spiky bits of ice in the wall, preventing physical attack, and Iron Tail shatters it to harm the opponent. /Hey, she’s a Coordinating Pokemon./ Theme Song: Amaranth, by Nightwish.

(Quote: “I was born to be left behind, wasn’t I? First mommy and daddy...and then you, Ari.”)

Mates/Siblings/Children-Two children; Trouble and Nuisance, female and male, Umbreon and Eevee. Mate of Gregor, the shiny Umbreon. Siblings, Nero, Eevee.

Kilgore-(Pikachu, Male)-Ari’s Pikachu that refused to evolve, making Ari scream at the Ash comparison, but she loves Kilgore and does not mind. He is a huge fan of Kurt Vonnegut, whose character Kilgore Trout is his namesake. A thoughtful and calculating Pikachu, his intelligence is how he wins battles against much larger enemies. He is weary, jaded, and tired of the world sometimes; evidently, that’s why he’s the Clockwork General. He is also ‘the last in a long line of stately British homosexuals’...yet he’s never been to England. Ignore him. Signature move: Volt Tackle. Theme Song: Chop Suey! by System of a Down.

(Quote: “FUCK YOU WITH A TUBA, YOU FAT BASTARD!” /LOL, this is nothing like him, but hahaha, I love it. XD/)

Mates/Children/Siblings: Devrali.He has one adopted daughter and one adopted son, Eva the Lopunny and Miles the Pikachu, AND five nephews and three nieces; Zig, Zag, Zip, Zap, and Dejaal, male, and Loraine, Shuka-Rin, and Elizabeth. The last four are Raichu. Has three siblings; Pika the Raichu, female, Ziggy, male, and Jaal, female.

Devrali-(Flygon, Male, Okinawan; actual name unknown.)- Kilgore’s second-in-command in the Clockwork Unit, he cannot speak. Or rather, he can, but it’s just more like, ‘Naoo nayaaaaow nao.” Or something. Sort of like a female cat in heat. The theory on this is that he’s from Okinawa, straight from the GTS, and therefore knows nothing of English; ergo, he has no fucking clue what we’re all saying. Yet he seems to understand us to an extent...so perhaps he’s just doing it to piss us off. Theme Song: China Girl, by David Bowie.

Mates/Siblings/Children-Adopted daughter and son, Eva and Miles. Mate of Kilgore.
Quote: "Naayao nao naow!"

Hiromi-(Rayquaza, Male)-Ari’s rather stereotypical gay Rayquaza. Happens to be her father figure. Yeah, the gay one that went to Fat Camp. (Also known as Gayquaza, The Jolly Green Giant, and Hiro-Hiro. /The last one is Ari’s ‘nice’ nickname for him./ Is hated by Mikhail, Brutus, and Caetalus for some weird reason. Really pissed at his trainer for first naming him ‘RAY’, and then naming him a girl’s name, and enjoys bringing it up in arguments to see her sputter. /In her defense, how the fuck was she supposed to know!?/ Likes dancey music, especially Cobra Starship. Signature Move: Dragon Pulse. Theme Song: Dog Problems, by the Format, because he has romantic issues. :3/ (Quote: “Ooh, you’re so sexy, don’t cry! Don’t worry princess, someone will love you...maybe I can blind someone. That’ll work.” /While talking to Ari./)

Mates/Children/Siblings- Father of Ari, boyfriend of Delilah the shiny Milotic AND Ozzie, and one kid, Ozymandias.

Noel-(Vaporeon, Male)--terrified of his own shadow. He has a reason; his Sp.Atk is almost 310, and one blow from him sends most opponents flying. He's got a good reason to be afraid of that shadow. /Sarcasm./ Seriously, he's a sweetheart, but he's terrified of anything bigger than him...and he's a midget. Four foot at his shoulder. /Again, sarcasm./ It's actually funny, which is why everyone picks on him, except for Amaranth, who is nice like that. Despite this...well, you know how Scooby had his Scooby Snacks that made him all brave and strong? (FIRST EXPERIENCE OF DRUGS FOR THIS TEENAGER) ...Noel has his chocolate.

Seriously, Noel has a problem with chocolate. It puts Mihael Keehl to SHAME. He always has a bar within reach. If he didn't get that sugar, his body, because of his massive Sp.Atk, would eat itself alive in a race to survive. He's a sweetheart at his core, and he's really not as much of a fraidy-cat as everyone makes him out to be. Might have a small crush on Ari's female Umbreon, Israel.

Mate/Siblings/Children--Related to pretty much every Eevee Ari has SOMEHOW, and crushin' on Izzy. (Israel.)

Theme Song: I'm Not Okay, by MCR.

Quote: ("It's okay, Amaranth. It was just a nightmare. You have nothing to fear--HOLY SHIT ON A STICK IT'S A FUCKING SPIDER SAVE ME!")

Israel--(Umbreon, Female)--Twin sister to Heath, and is brave and adventurous. If you give her a cardboard box, she pretends she's a pirate. It's actually kind of awesome. She always drags Noel along for these adventures, which is why Noel is slowly coming out of his (closet) shell. Kind of like Jaenelle from The Black Jewels Trilogy; quite powerful, (can withstand almost any hit you send her way), but naive and unaware of her own power. Also enjoys bringing others into her schemes.

Theme Song: Jai Ho, by A.R. Rahman.

Quote:("Noel...I have a great idea..." "Does it involve someone dying?" "No--" "Going off a waterfall?" "...You bastard, you know me too well.")

Heath-(Male, Espeon)-The Joker is his idol, which should tell you a lot right there. Sets stuff on fire. Even if it's alive. ESPECIALLY if it's alive. Crossdresses as well. 'Cause he's just awesome like that.

Theme Song: The Ballad of Sweeney Todd, from the musical.

Quote: ("Everything burns.")

Scout--(Porygon, female)--Sweet and helpful, always ready to help out with tech problems. Significantly less crazy than most other Porygon. Likes to pretend she's real...which is both cute and heartbreaking. Unaware she's not a real Pokemon.

Theme Song: Charlotte Sometimes, by The Cure.

Quote: ("I'm so glad I'm a Pokemon!")

Bitey--(Feraligatr, Male)--Ari's first father, he was born originally in Johto. He was on her Gold game that she had stolen one summer, which led to one of her more close to sucessful suicide attempts. He is honorable and fierce. A warrior, he could lead an army into battle without batting an eyelash. Brave and brash, he says what is on his mind about the care of Ari, and will occasionally carry her around because he enjoys the image of his daughter being protected by him.

He sounds possessive. He is. But she was so young when she came to him, and he knows that inside her still, there is that young child. He wants to protect her, desperately...he wants to see his daughter grow up. That's all. He is the most devoted father she could ask for, and she loves him just as much as she loves Hiromi. He has no mate, and no children except Ari.

Quote: ("I want to see her grow up. I want to see the fragility she had as a child go away. I want to see my daughter get MARRIED. How is this so wrong?")

Mate/Siblings/Children--None except for Ari. Very close to Szeren, but not romantically.

Morton--(Suicune, Male)--Knowledgeable. He knows more than he tells, but it's only because half of what he knows would shatter Ari. He was the Suicune that tested her in Crystal, and deemed her pure, and he may be responsible, indeed, for her becoming Crystal for a time when Game still ruled. He has a close relationship with Szeren.

Quote:("The Game has found you...and it wants to play.")

Theme Song: The Hungry Ghost, by The Cure.

Mates/Siblings/Children--None.

Mikhail-(Mightyena, Male, Shining. Legit Shiny, too.)-Ari’s beloved ‘one-in-a-million’ Pokemon, who she did really originally name ‘SCOOBY’ but if you mention that to him, he will cheerfully rip your throat out. As Hiromi points out, ‘At least you didn’t get a chick name’. Very fierce and overprotective of Ari, seeing her as his pup. According to her, he and Kitao gang up on her, but again, they’ve seen her at her worst, and know what she is truly capable of doing to herself. Signature Move: Shadow Claw/Crunch combo. Theme Song: Nice Guys Finish Last, by Green Day.

(Quote: “Killing them all sounds nice about now. How about a massacre? We’re due for another one of those...”)

Mates/Siblings/Children-Mate, Jay, shiny Mightyena, and two kids; Adora and Nightfang, female and male, shiny and then not shiny. No sibs.

Ichigo-(Latias, Female)-The sweetest, most innocent, most pure goddamn thing on the planet. Ari adores the hell out of her, because Ichigo is her greatest link to kindness and hope for herself besides Szeren. She is basically the child Ari wouldn’t ever have, because she hates human children. She is the other half of the duo that can usually not only contain Kiddo, but keep her where she can’t hurt Ari. Signature Move: Subzero Sphere: A mixture of Mist Ball and Blizzard. Theme Song: Comforting Sounds, by Mew. (Quote: “Mommy! Wake up! Everyone’s dying!”)

Siblings/Mates/Children-One brother, Jet the Latios. Mate of Kiddo.

Grendel-(Ninetales, Male, Shiny)-A god of purest form. Oh, how I wish I was kidding. This one is a beast; his stats are the only ones I've ever hacked, standing at 999 for every stat. He was created as a weapon against the endless NPC battles, because like the pill that is his namesake, /Grendel the comic ftw~/, he can fight entire armies without batting an eyelash. All he knows is fighting, all he knows is killing, save for the loyalty to his trainer. A monster with a heart of gold and the eyes of a demon...

Themesong: Vena Cava, by Angelspit.

Mates/Children/Siblings--Trixie, mate. (Deceased.)

Quote: ("The Crow says don't look... I looked.")

--
Trixie--(Ninetales, Female, deceased)--Sweet, kind, and innocent. Heartbreaking, then, that she's in love with Grendel, a mindless killer. But she's a good influence on him--at least, until she dies. It's a breaking point in someways for both Ari and Grendel. She was a good girl. She will be missed.

Theme Song: The Reasons Why, the Cure.

Quote: ("To protect the world from devastation...")

Mates/Siblings/Children: Grendel is her mate. She's an orphan.
--

Placebo--(Togetic, male)--The Togepi that hatches from the Egg in FRLG. See, his name comes from the fact that Ari couldn't get Placebo Effect, (a song by Siouxsie and the Banshees), out of her head, so she was like, 'fuck it bitchez Imma call him PLACEBO!' He's swift and cheerful, almost like Botan from YYH. Gets along with EVERYONE, and I mean EVERYONE. He could probably befriend HITLER.

Theme Song: The Happy Happy Joy Joy song. 'Nuff said.

Mates/Siblings/Children--One son, Albion, a Togepi. Mate of Orian, female Ledian.

Orian--(Ledian, female)--Placebo met and instantly befriended her in Pattern Bush, (LOL INNUENDO), and she followed Ari around as a result. She loves him fiercely, and is defintely the warrior of the two. Adept at using her four arms for the four Punches; Ice Punch, Fire Punch, Thunder Punch, and Mach Punch.

Theme Song: Poker Face, by Lady Gaga.

Mates/Siblings/Children--Placebo the Togetic is her mate, and Albion the Togepi is her son.

Vita-(Mew, Female)- The one of my Pokemon that probably needs no introduction to anyone who knows me; my functioning alcoholic Mew, who enjoys singing “Do ya think I’m sexy” By Rod Stewart when shitfaced. /sighs/ Ocerus is her boyfriend/mate thing, who happens to be a straightedge Shining Mew. No, really. Straightedge. As in no alcohol.

Signature Move: Breaking a vodka bottle over someone’s head, but I’m told that doesn’t count, so probably just a Psychic. Dance puppets, dance! Theme Song: Hitchin’ A Ride, by Green Day. Or Seven Deadly Sins, by Flogging Molly.

(Quote: “But you know, she was three years old and playing a game in which the object is to beat the crap out of as many opponents as possible; the conclusion her stunted little mind must’ve reached was that the ideal way to get something was to slaughter all in her path...”)

Mates/Children/Siblings: Orcus, and one sibling, Mephis. May the goddess help us if they have kids.

Shadow-(Ghost Missingno, Male, occasionally takes form of Shining Tyranitar, or black Rattata; can shift into any Pokemon)-Incredibly powerful glitch...with the mental capacity of a young child. Vita adores him to pieces, and treats him like a son. Why, no one’s quite figured out. Loves Ari like an older sister, and really likes toast.

Signature Move: None. Really, he can take the form of any Pokemon, and can therefore use literally every move in existence, but incredibly powerful moves often have nastier side effects than planned. Theme Song: Mommy, Can I Go Out and Kill Tonight, by The Misfits. Tongue is firmly in cheek.

(Quote: “TOAST!”)

Mates/Siblings/Children: None of any...well, maybe Matrix as a mate? Still up in the air...

Ocerus-(Lucario, Male, Deceased)-One of the Three, Ari’s self-appointed guardians and the ones who are in charge of handling her when Kiddo surfaces. Ocerus can sense the changes in Ari’s aura when Kiddo is about to come out, making him the one to alert the others to danger. He is the most overprotective and jealous member of the group; while they all respect each other, they are all in a contest for her affections. Mephis and Ocerus are actually literally contesting to be her mate. Such as that is, whenever Ari is out of earshot, Ocerus refers to her as his mate. Knows exactly how and when to provoke Ari’s temper. He is the only one that calls her Master, much to her annoyance. He is caring, but does it the Pokemon way, which I think is part of the problem. Died to protect Jack, as always, for Ari. Signature Move: Aura Sphere. Well, duh. Theme Song: The Love That Left You to Die, by Metro Station.

(Quote: “Master is just angry that I hog the covers, isn’t she?” “YOU HAVE FUR! YOU DON’T NEED COVERS!” “No. But I enjoy making you scream.” “That’s what she said.” “VITA!”- Okay, Ocerus, Ari, then Ocerus again, then Vita, then both. Uh...yeah.)

Mates/Siblings/Children: None.

Mephis-(Mewtwo, Male)-Another one of the Three, he is the one that can sever the psychic link between Ari and her other half, Kiddo. He is in a vicious rivalry with Ocerus over Ari’s affections, and also refers to her as his ‘mate.’ Does not like human challengers to this title, along with Ocerus. Has been known to kill them slowly and painfully...or, well, threaten to. Ari hasn’t had a lot of suitors. Akira, frankly, is not involved with the rather boneheaded members of the Three. In his opinion, of course. Vita’s brother, actually. /Well, half-brother, seeing as they had different fathers./ Really. Signature Move: Mind and body control with his powerful Psychics. Theme Song: Grace Kelly, by Mika.

(Quote: “I just want to sleep without my drunken sister drawing...things...on my face! Can I get a little sympathy here!?”)

Siblings/Mates/Children: Vita as a sibling. Which makes him wish he was an only child. Mate of Marian, female Lucario. No kids yet.

Akira-(Male, Gallade)- The most easygoing of the Three, he is the one that wears Kiddo out through battle, since the other two might rip Ari’s body to shreds in the process. He is the kindest out of all of them, and is content with Ari’s platonic love of him. Says ‘Wotcher’ and ‘Fetch’ a lot. Very cheerful and upbeat. Has a mate, Asariel, a Gardevoir, and four children; Zuzu, female, Ruru and Harusame, male, and Lachrymose, female. Signature Move: Hand-to-hand combat. Also, Psycho Cut. Theme Song: The Good Soldier, by Nine Inch Nails.

(Quote: “Wotcher, and fetch to you too!”)

Mates/Siblings/Children- Asariel, a Gardevoir, and four children; Zuzu, female, Ruru and Harusame, male, and Lachrymose, female.

Orcus-(Mew, Male, Shining)-Vita’s serious, prissy, kind of pompous boyfriend. In other words, really the exact opposite of Vita, who can be smart when she wants to be, but in her words, ‘being a prissy bitch aristo is no fuckin’ fun.’ Despite their major differences, Orcus loves her madly, and would die for her. The two plan on having kids. In that case, god help us. Signature Move: Twin Psychic with Vita. Theme Song: When the Day Met the Night, by Panic at the Disco.

(Quote: “No, I will not count how many times you can cram the f-word into a sentence, dammit!”)

Mate/Siblings/Children: Vita as a mate, and THANK CHRIST THEY DON’T HAVE KIDS. :3

Dante-(Charizard, Male, Shining)-The only son of Szeren and Dave, he is technically Ari’s younger brother, and treats her like a role model in all respects. Much to everyone else’s chagrin, of course. Is a skilled fighter and a decent Contest champ. Signature Move: Heat Wave. Theme Song: Burn it Down, by Avenged Sevenfold.

Mates/Siblings/Children: Ari, his older sister, and no children or mates as of yet.

Gideon-(Absol, Male)-A brave Absol that uses his power over disasters to cause them when needed; he is the one in charge of distracting foes in the real-game with eathquakes and blizzards. Very loyal, steadfast, almost militaristic. Signature Move: Blizzard. Theme Song: The Great Destroyer, by Nine Inch Nails.

Siblings/Mates/Children-Nothing so far. He's got a crush on a few girls, but he's not telling.

(Quote: “If we have to kill her, then we owe it to her that she dies by our hand. We owe our mother that much.”)

Silence-(Natu, Female)-Idolizes Farseer, Jack's Xatu, and prizes her as 'the Strange One'. She is desperate to evolve, but Ari isn't so sure. Silence is a Black Widow, who can spin webs and see what lies within them in her dreams. Because she hasn’t learned how to make aura webs, she stays close to Ari’s Ariados, Arachna. Signature Move: Psychic. Theme Song: In My Mind, by SR-71.

(Quote: “As soon as I can trap you in madness, YOU’RE ALL GONNA BE SO GODDAMN SORRY!”)

Mates/Siblings/Children-None.

Soren-(Male, Empoleon)-Ari’s Sinnoh starter, he is proud and ruthless, challenging all those who insult either his or his master’s prowess. Challenges all he meets to a fight. Though to be frank, he’s a big softy, though he kills most outside his family that know that. Signature Move: Frozen Metal Claw: self-explanatory; bitch-slapped with a frozen claw sharp as a razor. Yeah. Theme Song: Headstrong, by Trapt.

(Quote: “Don’t make me smack a bitch.” /Technically Ari’s quote, BUUUT.../)

Mates/Children/Siblings-Celandine the shiny Clefable, and a son, Baron the shiny Empoleon.

Beladame-(Female, Espeon)-A very dignified feline, graceful and proud, refuses to admit her weaknesses. This can drive her to the breaking point with her psychic powers, as she refuses to give in during a fight. Mate of Kurama, the legit Shining Jolteon Ari stole from Chris. Signature Move: Psyburst. (A burst of psychic energy that momentarily stuns the senses and causes confusion. Intensity modified by the amount of sun in the area.) Theme Song: What it Feels Like to be a Ghost, by Taking Back Sunday.

(Quote: “I’ll live for you, but I won’t die for you, because then you’d be an ass and kill yourself anyways.”)

Kurama-(Male, Jolteon, Shining. Legit, too.)-Ari stole him from Chris, and prizes him as a fighter who relies mostly on speed to get himself an advantage. Feels guilty sometimes, because for a time he felt like he was replacing Mikhail. This still leads to a lot of discord among the two that they have yet to sort out. Signature Move: Zap Cannon. /No, really. Long story./ Theme Song: I’m a Fake, by The Used.

Quote: (“Fine then, I’ll just do a murder-suicide! Ten steps back, and then DRAW!” /In response to Bela./)

Bauhaus-(Male, Origin Forme Giratina)-He tries to be all ‘gawfick’ and ‘spookeh’ but it’s really made of fail, and he knows it. He is the most knowledgeable about the afterlife and what lies beyond ‘the...realm...of...seeing’ according to him, but despite his quirks, he really does know an awful lot. Signature Move: Hellfire: a mix of Earth Power and Flamethrower. Theme Song: Gloomy Sunday, covered by Christian Death. Or hell, probably the Emo Song. Once again, tongue in cheek.

Mates/Children/Siblings: “It’s a god’s duty to die alone”...but I know for a fact he has a thing for Sephenix.

(Quote: “...I see all...I know all...For I am the god of DEATH!” “Oooh! Then ROCK ME SEXY JESUS!”) /Bauhaus, then Ari. DO. NOT. ASK./

Seraphia-(Female, Shaymin)-A sweet, kind young Shaymin who believes wholeheartedly in Ari’s greatness; why, well, she was an uncatchable Pokemon, and Ari came over to Flower Paradise and caught her. No, really. She loves Rogue the Darkrai intensely. Signature Move: Leaf Storm. Theme Song: Mary, by the Scissor Sisters.

(Quote: “You can do it! If you can catch ME, you can do anything!”)

Mates/Siblings/Children: Bloom is her brother; Rogue the Darkrai is her mate.

Amanda-(male, Sky Forme Shaymin)--Since he was 'created' by Ari, they have yet to sort him out, but he seems to have a thing for Bloom. You never know with these things. He's romantic and overdramatic, just like Gregory, so the two get along very well. In fact, he may have a thing for Gregory. ...Amanda's kinda a romantic slut. Oh well.

Theme Song: I'm not gonna teach your boyfriend how to dance with you, by the Black Kids.

(Quote: "Beware my sexy-shaker skills!")

Gregory--(Espeon, male.) Overdramatic and gallant, an English gentleman on LSD. He's just awesome possum like that. :D Evolved into an Espeon while he was poisoned, so he can do the same things Umbreon can; release poison from the jewel on his forehead. Did I mention he's OVERDRAMATIC with a capital O? He is. Very much. Also flamboyantly EVERYTHING. Bi, straight, gay, trans, he's just a slut.

Theme Song: La Resistance, from the South Park movie.

(Quote: "Fear not, fair maiden, I shall save you!" "I'm a guy." "...Bugger.")

Bloom-(Male, Shaymin, often takes Sky Forme.)-Sera’s brother, he is a lot like his sister in almost all respects, except for his slight bit of pervertedness. Mikhail’s doing. Signature Move: Leaf Blade combo with Air Slash. Theme Song: Dear Prudence, the Siouxsie and the Banshees cover.

(Quote: “Does that’s what she said apply if you’re talking to a gay person? Because Mikhail used it on Hiromi, and I don’t get it...”)

Mates/Siblings/Children: Seraphia is his sister. Other than that, no.

Rogue-(Male, Darkrai)-A very gritty and crude Pokemon; swears, drinks, and gambles. We’re all really surprised he and Vita aren’t dating. Really. Quite a bit like Richard, from Looking for Group. Despite this, he loves Ari, calling her affectionately, ‘the squirt’ or ‘brat’, and is very powerful. His tough exterior melts around Seraphia. Signature Move: Dark Void, Roar of Time, Spacial Rend. Theme Song: Dear God, by Avenged Sevenfold. /Well, he’s a romantic at heart. Or something./

(Quote: “No sex, no drugs, no wine, no women...fuck this shit, I’m outta Japan.”)

Mates/Siblings/Children: Absentha the Cresselia; sister. Seraphia, mate.

Story-(Ice Arceus, Male)-Shadow. No, really. He is the youngest Arceus currently alive, and is pretty much a big baby. He’s tiny, too; about the size of a Ponyta. Such as that is, whenever Ari feels like racing across plains majestically and shit, she uses Story as transport. He is very sweet and kind, though Rogue is trying to encourage him to kill. Signature Move: Judgement, though he doesn’t use it often. Good or bad. /Ha, a pun...(is shot)/ Theme Song: Forsaken, by Within Temptation.

(Quote: “I wanna be Ziggy Stardust and make love to my ego!”)

Zero-(Male, Arcanine)-A very exuberant and, well, doggy sort of Pokemon. Believes he knows every thing there is to know about human beings, and put himself in charge of explaining these things to the young Pokemon. Like how Ari fancies human girls over anything else. According to him, it’s because, ‘She doesn’t want puppies...and she likes those girl-things that give off milk.’ Though to her, it’s mostly just the latter. Ari doesn’t let him out in public much when he decides dispensing knowledge would be a good idea. Uses him as fast transport when she can’t fly. Signature Move: Fire Fang. Theme Song: My Hero, covered by Paramore.

(Quote: See embarrassing one in profile.)

Mimi-(Female, Skitty)- Scar running down her right eye, because her original male trainer was angry at having received her, and tried to cut her eye out. She is vicious and cunning, reminding everyone of Ari; unthreatening exterior, but when her temper gets up, she isn’t afraid to kill and has the balls to do it. Her two moves she uses the most are Dragon Pulse and Flamethrower, because she ate the TMs containing these moves. Signature Moves: See former sentence. Theme Song: Kill All Your Friends, My Chemical Romance.

(Quote: “Not only can I kill you, I will pee on your grave. Cat piss is even worse than death, you know.”)

Mates/Siblings/Children-Mate of Shinigami.

Now, as for who I am... sometimes, not always, maybe somewhere in between... my personality's in the last place you look.
