Fandom Sands of Darkness (OOC)

Main
Here
Why am I like this 😭

Everyone, I made some ideas/suggestions about how Iris might feel about/interact with your character at the start of the story. Let me know if you don't like any of them or think they're not accurate so I can adjust, okie?

+ Iris is probably a casual fan of her!
+ Introduces herself with, "By chance, are you a popular idol? You resemble this one I know a lot!"
+ Expresses her like of Estella's music and performances and wants to know what brings her to Orre.
+ Probably wouldn't be super aware of the scandal since she's a more casual fan and hasn't been to Unova/Hoenn in a while
+ Two of her Pokémon are FLUFFY and Iris is a big fan of that. Offers all of them Pokepuffs, including Dollie although Iris doesn't hype her as much
+ Literally tries to give her a bunch of her spare contest seals and stickers when she realizes Estella likes them
+ Thinks her nails are pretty
omg I love this!! Estella would probably dread internally when Iris approaches her. She might secretly think her optimistic, kind attitude is too good to be true, and that she must have some kind of ulterior motive...but when she finds out that Iris is unaware of the drama and is an honest person? Shocked. I can also imagine her gradually realizing that she doesn't need to pretend around Iris and be simply be herself, but that can happen later on lol.

But yes, Estella can recommend her places to get her nails done and they can read fashion magazines together 🥺 💕 also would return the favor and give her eeveelutions plenty of snacks ("have some rainbow pokeblocks, cuties!")

+ He is INTIMIDATING
+ Probably influenced by Vegas' article and is hella concerned
+ Decides he's intense but not so bad if they eventually team up and she interacts with him properly
+ Still doesn't wanna get yelled at tho 😭
+ Scary but unreasonably handsome
+ Thinks he's a strong trainer, on the same level as her friend Lorcan (who she thinks is the strongest trainer she knows personally)
+ Finds his Sandshrew very cute and would like to play with him! As long as it didn't seem like he would be mad
+ Thinks he probably could show her some cool desert landmarks to photograph but doesn't dare ask
+ Super glad they're on the same side (she assumes, eventually) because that is a freakin' Tyranitar
+ Offers his Pokémon Pokepuffs even though they seem scary like him, as a peace offering
+ Goes out of her way to show him she's a strong trainer too, just in case he does turn out to be evil 😂

+ He's funny!
+ Immediately falls apart if he starts to flirt, but appreciates when he tones it down when he notices how nervous she is
+ Seems friendly and kind to everyone and that makes her feel a little more at ease, is glad to associate with him
+ Shook that he and Ryker and friends like how tho????

+ Taking an instant photo together and giving Keegan the one and only copy to remember their adventure by.

+ Her hair is so pretty! She loves the colors.
+ More importantly--OMG YOU HAVE AN EEVEE TOO!!!!

+ The biggest hypeman ever when her second Eevee evolves into Espeon later, talking about their ears and air currents and stuff
+ Super interested in her artistic process, wants to discuss their creative pursuits and compare notes.

+ Iris is probably a casual fan of her!
+ Introduces herself with, "By chance, are you a popular idol? You resemble this one I know a lot!"
+ Expresses her like of Estella's music and performances and wants to know what brings her to Orre.
+ Probably wouldn't be super aware of the scandal since she's a more casual fan and hasn't been to Unova/Hoenn in a while

+ Rocks are cool!
+ Would want to ask if Kira has any interested in evolution stones. If yes, immediately offers some from her parents' lab
+ Curious about how she detects mineral deposits
+ Wants to lowkey join Kira on a "day in the life" so she can photograph mines and write about miners and whatever else they do
+ Her Flareon probably wants to bat Kira's Rolycoly around like a ball
+ Seems reliable, one of the first people Iris wants to team up with when things go south

+ Yes, she always calls them Ms. Shaw
+ "Thank goodness, we have an adult here to help with this!" "Aren't you an adult?" "..."

Need further confirmation about her acting for related headcanons, does she only act in horror movies? Or cross genre?

+ Would be literally honored if she would accept a cookie Iris has made

+ He's very smart, super smart, wayyyy too smart
+ VERY interested in his work as a sound collector, sees it as similar to her work as an "appearance" collector. Wants to know more about it
+ Ohh, he's handsome tho
+ His Pikachu is so cute, she really wants to feed it and cuddle it and play with it and yeah

First off, I love Iris. Her team? Full of cuties, I love eevees sm (really can't think of anyone who doesn't really-)

But ooh! Zavion loves people and would love her. She seems sweet so that's a plus. But she also gives him baked treats??? Crumbs on his hands and face as he eats everything she offers. Mans is living on granola bars and microwave meals bc he doesn't have much time to actually cook so he'd love her sm; you just spedran friendship with him. (Also Venus is gonna smell the food and try to go digging through her bag-)

As for Anthony, so real honestly. He'd probably think she's some weirdo for being happy all the time since he's a grumpster and all, but two people interacting that are opposing sides of the spectrum personality wise yet still having similarities (protecting pokemon) would be an interesting dynamic! I think he'd begrudgingly respect her drive and passion for pokemon. 'You're...okay' *in a tone like he's being threatened behind the scenes or smth*
 
+ Yes, she always calls them Ms. Shaw
+ "Thank goodness, we have an adult here to help with this!" "Aren't you an adult?" "..."
+ Compliments them on how well-polished their Scizor is, like a weirdo
Need further confirmation about her acting for related headcanons, does she only act in horror movies? Or cross genre?

Iris always calling them Ms. Shaw is funny as hell though. old man hours in this house /j it can also codify the mom friend status for them, since they're the oldest in this ragtag group by over 10 years. hopefully nobody makes a character older than Louisa, the age stuff is funny as hell to me

But in terms of acting like an adult? Thanks to the acting career and the chronic pain from the surgery, their exhaustion comes in SPADES. Ibuprofen? Check. Extra snacks and drinks for hungry people and Pokémon? Double check. The extra items are mainly for herself when the pain flairs up again, but other people are very welcome to have some if the need arises.

In terms of acting career... admittedly I've only thought about their breakthrough movie. but when I was doing some digging, Pokestar Studios does its fair share of genres (action, sci-fi, fantasy, and horror are what's listed on bulbapedia), so I'm taking the bait of listing Louisa as a cross-genre actor in the roll of either an antagonist or a mentor-like figure for the protagonist.
 
omg I love this!! Estella would probably dread internally when Iris approaches her. She might secretly think her optimistic, kind attitude is too good to be true, and that she must have some kind of ulterior motive...but when she finds out that Iris is unaware of the drama and is an honest person? Shocked. I can also imagine her gradually realizing that she doesn't need to pretend around Iris and be simply be herself, but that can happen later on lol.

But yes, Estella can recommend her places to get her nails done and they can read fashion magazines together 🥺 💕 also would return the favor and give her eeveelutions plenty of snacks ("have some rainbow pokeblocks, cuties!")
I just realized.
Blinks at.
 
blitzfritz blitzfritz I just finished reading Louisa's bio and omg I love how detailed their backstory is 😭 💕 also love the way you mention Estella's controversy considering they're from the same region! I feel like when Estella found out about that, she'd be surprised, yet oddly touched. Instantly gains mad respect for her. (Sidenote estella definitely watched Chromelake and was too scared to fall asleep later that night lmao)
 
Gold. Gold. is there a certain due date all cs are forced to be done / this rp is not accepting more or always open?
No due due date, but I am planning to open up the RP thread pretty soon! The RP will be closed today to new players.

Lilure Lilure Imma circle back to your headcanons when I have more time.
 
Sounds good! I'll be getting the opener up sometime this evening!

Everyone still has plenty of time to finish character's and sheet though, don't worry.
 
Very excited to start this rp

I also bring to everyone: funny Pokéstar Studios meme
