A canon update for Buson + a bunch of artwork [image heavy!!]

[buson]

Two things! I’ll let Buson go home for a few days (so he can finish the unsuccessful Raikou mission, and then, however many off-screen missions and events take place between then and the successful Rayquaza mission) and then come back… he’ll probably be quite disoriented and might need to re-adjust to peaceful living and will probably feel even more unworthy of all of this on returning, but… but he’ll still be happy to be back!

This way, both him and Bashou have experienced the same Raikou mission in full, but Buson will also feel he’s been gone a lot longer (but time flows differently, so it’s just a few days here in Ultern…).

The other thing, have some roleplay-based art, a lot of which I already share on plurk (muteswans), but some concern characters who I don’t have added there, like Evie, so here, it’ll go!

Bashou playfully nudging Buson, Evie exploring Chichi Island~

Sketch based on the idea of how Evie called in the radio show, anyway… I’m imagining her using the Pokemon Center’s video phones to talk about Radley, but it’s just a guess! xD

Mayday thinking about what she’d do if she weren’t a Rocket… go on vacation. ;3;

Compelling argument to the captain for why Evie should get to ride the cargo ship Buson works on for free: she’s so cute, though.

Evie will be sad, but so happy when he comes back!

Awww, the artworks are so adorable! I love Evie looking around in wide-eyed wonder and the cute call-in sketch! She definitely could have used a video phone! And the ones I saw before are still so sweet too! I also like the non-Evie ones. Very cute!

[buson]

Aww, Evie. He’ll probably feel a bit bad seeing her after having to do all that Team Rocket work, but Ultern’s safe, he won’t do anything bad here if he can help it, and she’ll be a very welcome sight after all that time!!

I’m glad!! ^^

[radleyslittleevie]

That will be an interesting conversation!

[gold_drum]

Your art is always so cute! Especially the way you draw Evie!

[buson]

Thank you~ I’m pleasantly surprised by how much people like how I draw her, despite my lack of practice drawing Pokemon…

[bashou]

Good luck, Buson...!

Bashou will just be sitting in the inn like a powered-down robot until he gets back, probably lol

[buson]

He’s gonna need it!!

… Bashou, what the heck, it’s not a cage, go out and live life, man, there’s stuff to see!! … maybe go eat that cold zenzai, alone if you prefer.

Look, he’ll even have left you a dummy for knife throwing target practice, a wooden one and a straw-filled sack one! Hand-made. Not too impressive to look at, but you can train with them!

… maybe take it far away from the inn to avoid accidents and scaring people, but it’s all yours, mate.

[bashou]

Bashou will be fine, I promise!

I'm just laughing at the thought of Buson being gone for a matter of days, in Ultern's time, and yet when he gets back Bashou is already living in the jungle like a wild creature, with his knife-throwing dummies, hissing at everyone...this is who he is now...

[buson]

Bashou, what—and I say this most sincerely—the fu—

This will increase Buson's confusion and wariness because it'll be almost like a year or two for him in his own world! The entire Pokemon anime's all in the same year supposedly, but seasons do change and pass, at least two summers in Advanced Generation for the Grand Festivals take place in summer, so...

[themaskkeeper]

I know I've been inactive for a while but I wanted to say your art is absolutely adorable!

[buson]

Thank you!! ^^

(I'm sorry I took so long to reply, I meant to reply only a little later, then... forgot...)

[themaskkeeper]

You're very welcome!

And you're fine! I'm sorry for dropping our old thread. ><; I've got more free time now though so I'm hoping to become more active here again.

[buson]

Don't worry about it! If I was still playing Trip, I'd have kept playing it when you wanted to get back to it, fff.

I'll happily play with you with my current muses! Go ahead and tag 'em, it's a dressing room, no stress. ♥

[themaskkeeper]

Aww. I'm sorry to see him go but I totally understand.

And will do! I appreciate it. ♥
