A While Ago Me And @lieutenant-amuel Talked About How Since Gabe And Some Of The Other Guards Know Magic

I would be delighted if you wanted to show off your pokemon scarlet team

Sure! Here are my lil'buds :

Group photo! (Not all are shown here because I consider my full team to be larger than seven, since I can just rotate them around whenever I want.)

This is Fern, my starter! I didn't actually know what she'd look like when she evolved, since I tried to avoid any spoilers for new Pokémon in the game, so I was a little nervous at first with how she would look and what type she would become, but my fears were unfounded in the end. I just love my magician cat.

Skully the Clodsire, and Mariza the Finizen

These are the cute little guys and I absolutely 100% needed to have on my team as soon as I saw them. Scully is named that because of those little crossbones he had as a Wooper (By chance, he is the only male Pokémon on my team). Mariza is all I've ever wanted in a Pokémon ever since I was 8, she is adorable and sometimes she glitches on buildings and starts to fly into space ("So long, and thanks for all the fish").

Trenza the Dachsbun, and Imentet the Espathra

Trenza carried my team with a lot of type coverage and also carried it by being a very good girl, good dog, good bunbun. Imentet is here to fight enemies with the power of the setting sun (and a psychic laser she shoots from her mouth).

Anguila the Wugtrio, and Hawlucha (the currently unnamed) 

I love garden eels so much I needed the garden eel Pokémon so much. Hawlucha is the newest member of my team, she helps me beat normal types into the dirt. (I'm looking for name suggestions for her so feel free to suggest any).

Chien-Pao (exuberant ferret) and Chi-Yu (the sensible one)

I don't normally nickname my legendaries, so these two just have their regular names. Chien-Pao is the only member of my team fast enough to keep up with me while I'm riding Koraidon, so they follow me around the most. They will sporadically stab things then fall asleep at my feet. Chi-Yu is very pretty and melts things with fire.

Muffin the Naclstack, and my noble (and very goofy) Koraidon

Muffin is probably the strongest member of my team, she's got me through some tough fights with her salt powers and is so powerful that my files of direct pictures of her kept on going corrupt and refused to be transferred to the computer, so here’s a glitched overlaid picture of her instead. And finally, my very, very eccentric motorcycle dragon and my favourite box art legendary, (I'm so proud of them).

Hello! I just read your fic, “Royal Hospitality”, and I want to say, I loved it. I was going to leave a comment, but I wanted to address you personally. As usual, it was so well written. Everyone is perfectly in character, that I could easily see it happening in the show! I always get that feeling when reading your fics:) But I have to admit, I have a special place in my heart for Victor’s diolouge with Esteban. The irony. I also loved how Victor was able to connect with Joaquin as a father.

Thank you so much, I'm honoured! :) 💜

Funny you mention it because Esteban and Victor's conversation with each other was actually one of the hardest, yet most fun parts of the fic to write. The whole time writing it I was going back and forth between “Is this going too far?” and “Is this not going far enough?” So I'm really glad you liked it.

Just bought and am currently playing The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe.

Gotta say, I'm loving [the jetpack ending]

My favorite part was [The Adventure Line™]

Wow...[Stanley]

Hi! I don’t remember if I ever properly thanked you for the Carla and Vestia drawing that I requested from you a few months back. Knowing how the show pairs Jaquins with the humans, I would say that Vestia and Carla are a perfect match for each other in the same way that other humans and Jaquins in the show are paired together. Vestia was a rogue Jaquin who became a Gaurdian of Avalor again and was reaccepted amongst her kind. Carla is a Malvago turned Wizard who was accepted in Avaloran society

Well, you didn't message me or put anything in the tags at the time, but you did like and reblog it, which I felt was a thank you, but it's nice to hear directly that you appreciate it as well! (I am curious though about what you thought of her hairstyle and dress since I was experimenting a bit with style for it.)

Yes, they do fit pretty well together. And they both seem to be really clever and determined so that would also match up if they were on a mission together. Plus, together they could probably make some of the sassiest comments you've ever heard!

These are the second two dresses I made for my doll. It took me awhile to make a pattern that actually worked for making doll dresses with a bit of help from friend I was able to perfect this pattern. 😀 [Image ID: Two pictures of the same handmade, felt doll of Carla Delgado from Elena of Avalor, wearing different dresses.The doll is made of light and dark brown felt for the body and hair, with an embroidered face. The first dress is black with bits of gold and purple on it and a big red flower in the middle. The second dress is white with pale pink and blue flowers. End ID]

What are your thoughts on Carla’s magical ability? I can never be sure, but seeing her use magic throughout the show, it seems to imply that she’s very talented.

I agree, think that she must certainly have some talent to be able to do the magic we see her cast. By "To Save a Sunbird" she can do a clothing altering spell, a sleeping spell, a blasting spell and even a spell that creates a small tornado. She seems to be at about season 1-Mateo levels of magic.

But we don't have very many examples of other tamborita users to compare her to. She can cast blasting spells more reliably than Victor, but he was able to cast a teleportation spell once and we have never seen her do that. I think she's pretty good so far, but could become much better after more training and practice.

👑🌼👸🏽, please!

👑 - Favorite character? Victor Delgado. (He's the character I draw and think about the most, so logic dictates that he's probably my favourite). At first he seems like just a mildly threatening/fun villain, but as the show progressed you start to really care about him. Mainly because he's a good dad, that is a very important thing. But I don't think he really became my favourite character until “The Magic Within,” because as the old saying goes: When you can't have something, it just makes you want to have it more.

🌼 - Favorite episode? There are quite a few episodes that I really enjoyed. So just like Elena has more than one best friend, I have more than one favourite episode. But this time I think I'll talk about “Crash Course.” Bronzino’s song was great, the subplot was good at developing Dona Paloma, and it was really cute to see the guard squad together! But the heart of this episode was Gabe and Mateo’s relationship. From them sassing each other, to their fight, to them making up and sharing their insecurities with each other, and then working together to save the day, it was great!

👸🏽- If you could write a 4th season of the show, what would you have in store for elena’s future?

Elena must have a much greater scope of political abilities unlocked now that she has been crowned Queen, so would be interesting to see some of those. I also want to see her deal with a super serious political issue the outcome of which could determine the fate of the Kingdom. Like trying to stop a corrupt kingdom/organization from going to war with Avalor. (They do have a lot of powerful magical resources,  I could easily see an unscrupulous evil ruler wanting to get their hands on them). And then Elena has to use her political negotiation skills to stop them! If all else fails she could deploy the royal guard against them and see how that goes.

Speaking of the royal guard I would want to see more of General Núñez (He probably has some extra executive powers now too) truly leading them to be the best Royal Guard they can be. Maybe there's a bit of a fallout from Coronation Day, because even though the guards had learned magic by that point they weren't able to protect the palace and the town from the shades. Maybe Gabe has to build back up their morale. And after that they train more and become strong enough to actually defeat magical monsters and criminals. Or maybe they have to fight off an attack from that corrupt Kingdom, and save the Avalor in the process. (Also I wouldn't want to see any of the guards die per se, but if one of them got seriously injured it would be interesting to see how Gabe would react to that as well…) (I could talk about this all day but this answer is getting a bit long, but if anyone wants to ask me more about it I'd definitely keep expanding my ideas on this, or what I think other characters would be doing...)

Vote for who you think would be most likely to die for narrative reasons!
