Pondering...

Rotates merfolk powers...

I feel like there's slight differences between different types of merfolk ofc but here's what Archie (and most merfolk) can do:

Manipulate water; move it around, levitate it, increase or decrease it's temperature, turn it to ice, evaporate it etc

Being immune to having his mind read by Psychics, be it Pokémon or people

Telekinesis.

Becoming invisible for a limited amount of time.

Shapeshift between forms (human and merfolk)

Enhanced voice / 'singing' capabilities. Think sonic screeches and siren song. Siren song gives them the ability to manipulate people's thoughts and actions through words (or singing if you're extra like that I guess). Most merfolk agree to never use that ability, and it's highly frowned upon in most circles. Merfolk who regularly travel to the depths have build up a tolerance / resistance for it though. (I HC the depths of the ocean are extremely hazardous / unfriendly and therefore super dangerous. Doesn't stop some brave souls from wandering there though.)

Enhanced senses underwater.

Can understand Water-types

They're one of the slower healers among supernatural beings. It makes venturing into dangerous situations extra risky.

will get to those flower asks after I watch a shitty shark movie with friends btw!! ))

What were they doing exactly? Archie returns the kiss either way, grip on the other's throat growing a tiny bit looser as he gets briefly lost in the moment.

"And yet yer enjoyin' this."

He knows that groan. He's had it happen before too, but he's not gonna admit that to his face.

A hum, pulling Guzma's face back in for another rough smooch, a smirk on his features.

He's also gonna be a tad cheeky and move his free hand to Guzma's hair, tugging at it.

Oh he cannot fucking stand his cunt. Hoping that the groan he couldn't keep in was caused by the hand holding on his throat rather than actual goddamn pleasure from the bite, Guzma squinted before rolling his eyes.

Looking for insults to throw, mostly, as his own hand moved away from Archie's to find his jaw, grasping at it-- maybe a little too forcefully.

"Ya kiss like a virgin."

And yet he goes in for a third one, teeth preceeding lips. And tongue.

He could always blame it on the stress of the past few days, who the fuck cares.

"I'd say so, yeah."

Hmm. Maybe this Crobat was also weird. Still. It hadn't attacked him just yet.

"What 'bout yerself? You seem strong, too."

Archie's crobat rests on his shoulder for a bit. Not getting on the ground with that other one right now, thank you. Didn't pass the vibe check.

Cyrus' Crobat was as curious about Archie as its companion had been. It sniffs him all over, taking particular interest in his legs. When it got as much information as it'd get smelling the 'human', it rest its heavy body on the ground to keep an eye on Archie and the fellow bat. Wings kept the front half of its body up.

It's energy wasn't... friendly. Similar to Cyrus, it was way too intense, in fact. Like it could launch up and attack at any moment.

Cyrus was unperturbed by this obvious tension.

"That looks to be a powerful Crobat. Are you a skilled trainer?"

@whereskymeetsea approached: " i was pretty mean back then, wasn't i? " <- said with a chill yet slightly smug grin. yea. mean. she kicked his ass severely

"...Yeah, actually. Ya were." He hasn't forgotten the massive ass-kicking, no. "Ya still smug 'bout it, hmm? Well, no matter. I needed it a' the moment."

Hello, Nikki here with another blog! This time it's Archie (AU&HC-based) from Alpha Sapphire! This blog is a half WIP still (as in I might add more / edit things later and I have no icons), but: Please like or reblog if you'd like to interact! About // Ooc // Rules // Pokémon

He's just sleeping peacefully, despite being a little cramped in this bathtub, when suddenly-- Thonk!

"..." He slowly opens his eyes, squinting at the figure in the doorway. This was not the nice(?) lady who helped him out, but instead... some dude, staring down at him.

The piece of paper is floating in the water, getting soggy... He grabs it, and without a word throws it, aiming at Guzma's face.

@nolongeraqualeader

Plumeria has told you there is a fish guy in her private bathtub. When you go look, there IS actually a fish guy in there. He's currently asleep, snoozing half submerged in water with a pained expression on his face. Plumes had attempted to patch him up with bandages, her knowledge of medicine coming in handy, but was it enough? He briefly stirs, shark-like tail twitching slightly and splashing some water out of the tub. Seems like he's out for a bit more, unless someone wakes him up?

Well fuck me running there sure is a fish guy in the bathtub. At this point, would anything surprise him? Anything at all? He saw enough whacky shit in his life-- nah, fuck it, in the past decade alone, to not even make him particularly surprised.

He's kind of. Just staring at this point. An eyebrow up, a rolled piece of paper thrown up and down, his head tilted slightly on the side as he leans on the side of the door.

...and then throws it at his head.

"Wakey wakey."

Whatever. Let's deal with the umpteenth bullshit, too.

"..." Casually throws it back through the hole. "Well are ya havin' fun?"

"It's always about why d'ya have balls from the ballpit and never are you havin' fun in the ballpit? Is the ballpit fun? Fuck you."

THROWS ANOTHER BALL.

tomorrow im slapping Pokémon Crossing away from archie... ))
