    Threadmarks: The Days After

    There are decades where weeks happen, and weeks where decades happen. I think it was Lenin that said it, but I’m not sure there’s a Lenin in this world. Either way, I was certainly living in the latter. Unsurprisingly, I was not involved in the politics. I was certain that negotiations were...

    Threadmarks: The Revolution, Part 2

    Sanzo Nosaka was a patient man. His plans were measured in years and decades. He had stayed in a hidden cellar for five days with nothing but a pokeball and some berries, keeping still as could be while the police searched for him. Yet there was a man who tested even his legendary patience. A...

    Threadmarks: The Revolution, Part 1

    Teddiursa rolled upon the blue grass, laughing at the banjo-playing Charizard. I opened my mouth— KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK “Hm?” I grunted as I rolled over. Sitting up, I rubbed at my eyes. “Adam?” The door opened with a slight squeak. My brother sighed, sitting down upon my bed. His shoulders...

    Threadmarks: Not A Chapter

    To start off, I've had a lot of fun writing this story so far. However, I'm running out of inspiration for it. Currently, I work on whatever story compels me the most--be wholly new or revisiting an old work. However, I am weighing whether or not to create a monthly volunteer subscription...

    Threadmarks: A Spark of Hope

    For most seven year olds, a triage room would be traumatizing. Truth be told, it was for me as well. I just had enough experience to know that stillness was death and kept moving. Handing out back-room medicine made from scavenged berries, applying homespun bandages of caterpie silk, cleaning...

    Threadmarks: Joining the Reds

    Goldenrod City. The capital of Johto and the largest city in the region, boasting a population in the millions. Even in wartime the streets were crowded with shoppers, workers, street artists, and vendors. The scent of a thousand spices hung on the air in the open markets while further into the...

    Threadmarks: Interlude: Adam Green

    Adam Green did not consider himself an easy man, nor a simple one. He had turned down the traditional journey–an option his parents insisted on giving him despite the war–in order to focus on his studies. Euclid, his oldest and dearest companion, had preferred the study arrangement to seeking...

    Threadmarks: The Road Home

    “Hone Claws!” I shouted, eyes firmly on the Spearow as it circled above us. The arrogant bird had decided we were intruders on his domain, and despite his small size he packed quite a punch. “Ready your claws,” I ordered as the Spearow dove. “Wait. Wait. NOW!” With a roar Teddiursa lashed out...

    Threadmarks: Is this how Training works?

    Teddiursa was not happy when I told him the first part of aura training was meditation. He grumbled, growled, and then sat back down with a huff when I offered to do another round of Jessica Says first. Meditating with Teddiursa was . . . different. His mind was much more emotive and visual...

    Threadmarks: Running

    Sometime the next day I came (mostly) to my senses. I tried to figure out where I was. It was warm, though not unseasonably so. Somewhere to the south, then. I looked to the sun, and the mountains. It would be easy to hide there. If I wanted to make it back home, I’d need to hide, at least until...

    Threadmarks: Red Sky in the Evening

    When I was five the army set up a guardpost a mile from our house. Apparently we, along with several other farms in the area, grew some of the plants needed for potions. Critical in healing both people and pokemon, the potions were understandably considered a military asset. One that needed to...

    It’s going to be a mix. Some things (healthcare, for example) are going to be more advanced while others (transportation) are less advanced. I’m using mid-20th century as a vague guide, and adjusting for what the Pokemon world shows as more and less advanced. Using my examples, there’s hardly...

    Thanks for the reminder! I’m used to AO3’s formatting and forgot to double check for line spaces.

  14. Normal Isn't Ordinary [Pokemon SI]

    This is the non-canonical Great Pokemon Wars, viewed as a headcanon to some. It’s the war Surge took part in (which itself alludes to WWII). You’re right that it’s not canon, but that’s what I’m using. The 32 years is approximately how long she’s born before anime canon starts.

    Threadmarks: First Steps, First Thoughts

    Reincarnation. To many–to most–it is the realm of belief and speculation. To a few favored (or disfavored) it is something far more concrete. I was born twice. Both times upon a floating marble of blue and green known as Earth. The first time, I was born in a world dominated by humans. I was...
