FANFIC MASTERLIST

Hey! This is Wayward Station, a SFW blog dedicated to my PLA writings which center around found family dynamic Ingo and Akari. The concept of Uncle Ingo is my life force right now haha.

Links to all of my fics will be kept here in a masterlist for easy access, updating as I write and post more!

All writings can also be found through the #waywardstationfanfic tag! :>

AO3 Page is here, if you’d rather read my writings there!

About the reblog game--is the POV going to stay on Ingo the whole time or are we going to get Akari randomly showing up incredibly confused and possibly falling from the sky again

On that note, did Akari even get sent back? Some of your works sort of imply that Arceus is kind of cruel and it won't let them go back together, so is she like fistfighting it right now to get sent back too? It would be absolutely GUTTING for Ingo to finally remember Akari only to find out that she never got sent back and then yet again start to beat himself up over the hypotheticals <3

As far as I know, it will just stay with Ingo. It’s planned to so far, but of course a winning option could always change that!!

And yes, Akari got sent back too, they just got sent back to their respective regions! It’s something that’s supposed to be made clear later on (if this story ends up going the projected way, at least) and we have not reached that yet, so yes it’s not very clear right now. But she got sent back and is now back in the modern day, same as Ingo!

I do hope to continue this comic soon, I know we reached the goal but I’ve been unable to work on it lately because of my neck ;-; I hope I can do so again soon!

And as for my interpretations, I have many, many thoughts about Arceus. I do not intend for Arceus to be cruel (it’s actually meant to be rather the opposite, Arceus is supposed to be extremely hands-off but compassionate, not intervening but offering guidance and help. There is emotional distance and no attachment or personal sentimentality; Arceus helps in situations it’s present in where it realizes it can be helpful, but it does not seek them out. If that makes sense (Like if I see a bug drowning in my pool while I’m swimming in it, I will scoop it up and watch over it as it dries itself off until it can fly away. But I do not go out of my way to go out to my pool and search for bugs that need help every day. Best way I can describe Arceus being hands-off but compassionate).

But of course no one really knows this interpretation in my works yet yet except for me, as I have not published the works that focus on this yet. (And to be clear, this characterization would extend to this reblog comic too)

As of now, all that people have really seen from me that I can recall is that Akari has expressed worry that they will not be allowed to go back together and Ingo will have to be left behind, so she will force Arceus to let her take Ingo back with her if she must. So yes Arceus sounds cruel lol, but it’s really Akari just assuming and preparing for the worst in an unknown scenario.

More about my interpretation of Arceus below, and how it relates to my overarching narrative in my fics.

How do I find those stickers on the site you recommended? I'm not familiar with it

In regards to this post

No worries! They’re not on the site yet as they’re not available. They’ll go up in April 11th, I will post about it when they do! :)

For now I recommend setting up an account on Neokyo so you can be ready for it, I am afraid these will sell out very fast like the most recent submas Pokemon masters merch did (I did not even have time to post about it here like I intended to before they went out of stock) so you will want to have everything ready to order and be quick.

You can take some time to figure it out, it’s free to use you just need to sign up with an account to use it (and so you can save an address/payment method to streamline the purchases). I can also make a guide for it if people would like.

We are getting more submas and PLA merch!! Waterproof and UV resistent stickers

They’ll be going up for sale on April 11 on B Side Label, a Japanese website, as part of their second series of trainer stickers.

We will also be getting jumbo versions of these stickers.

I will reblog this again when they come out as a reminder. I am certain they will sell out fast just like the Pokemon Masters merchandise. If you want to purchase them, I recommend using Neokyo, a Japanese proxy service you can use to buy them!

I might not be on the receiving end of the merch this time but I'm sure everyone will be okay when it does take a lil longer!

Please take care and don't overdo it! Everyone is patient here and we're looking forward to everytime you do post something here!

So take care and do things in your own pace!

I'm definitely looking forward to the next time you gonna share something here or post in general!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FRIEND!!

As always it eases my worries a lot when you reassure me about these things!! I’ve been focusing on easing my neck issues so I can make more art, I have been pretty depressed about that lately as I feel like it bars me from being able to fully interact with and make content for this blog (my issues make it painful to type sometimes as well so it’s affected my ability to focus on fics/asks as well)

Ive made some progress in getting help though so im hopeful I will get back my ability to create soon :)

Thank you so much!! I always say this but I have a lot backed up that I am always thinking about and wanting to get out :) hopefully that is soon!

hello, I just wanted to ask a quick question. I was building characters for an RPG character creation jam and one of the systems I was using to create a character really reminded me of your lovely fiction. Would it be OK to include characters loosely based on "your" Ingo and Akari going on a nice cozy adventure in my contribution to the jam , with appropriate credit to you?

Hello!!

Wow, that’s so awesome!!! I’m so honored you want to include characters based on my versions!!

You certainly can, thank you SO MUCH for asking and for wanting to do so!!! ;w; <3

#sneasler lost her warden after Ingo arrived; he was offered to replace them#lately I’ve been entertaining the idea of Sneasler losing her warden not because her previous warden died or anything#but because the previous warden did such a terrible job they had the position revoked#and I’ve been thinking about how maybe it was coin from the miss fortune sisters#she used to be part of the Pearl clan but left because she ‘disagreed with their ways’#maybe she was set to become sneaslers warden#but either did her best but wasn’t good enough or she actively didn’t try#and so she resents them for taking the title away from her once her neglect lead to something serious happening#she also has a poison type partner which also makes me think she probably had an affinity for sneasler too maybe#Ingo may have been there at the time this happened and they already knew he was good with pokemon#so they urged him to try and quickly replace her#maybe they were also pressured if this happened at the same time Lord Arcanine was lost at sea#they could NOT have both a dead noble and a warden less noble#<- ride pokemon* I suppose but they are of the same status of importance to me bdkdhsj#luckily Sneasler liked him and took to him after he showed her he could commit to the part and she starts getting treated better than coin#treated her#maybe coin even resents Ingo cause not only did he do her job better than she could at the Pearl clan#he later even starts working for the Galaxy team at the dojo#and she also was a part of the Galaxy team at one point and left them too as she states she hated doing the fieldwork#she’s like this freak is following me everywhere I go and doing things better than I could#lol#that’s SUPER LONG#BUT ITS BEEN IN THE BACK OF MY MIND FOR A LONG TIME#these are fun polls fray I gotta do more of them dbdkgsk

If dynamax/gigantamax were available in the PMD au, do you think Akari will gigantamax if she had the shot?

I can see it possibly eeveen the fragility of the species PLUS there's that extra fluff! Likely a nice spot to take a lunch break COUGH INGO COUGH

Akari daydreams of the day the tables will turn, and she gets to carry Ingo everywhere instead.

Interesting thought! I never considered dynamaxing/gigantimaxing in PMD! I would probably say it technically wouldn’t be possible seeing as this is supposed to be Hisui, and the max gimmick is an effect of those power spots in the Galar region.

I think at best, she would know of the phenomenon and that it was possible to do in certain places/at one point in time (I’m sure Laventon has told her about it, actually, being a Dubwool from Galar), but has never seen anyone be able to do it here in Galaxy Town. Maybe she’d mention it to Ingo and say she hopes they can find a special dungeon some day that can cause this haha. But if Akari could do it, she absolutely would!! She would love to be this huge towering beast of a pokemon lol, and Ingo is well aware of her not-so-secret desire to be a bigger, stronger, more intimidating pokemon that can protect herself and her friends/family.

She probably also tells Ingo she could then be the one carrying him around someday so he could rest his old man back lol.

Interesting thought anon, thanks for sending me an ask about it!! ^^

Hey there!

What did you think about the Pokémon Presents?

Are you hyped for Z-A?

I know Arceus will still be number 1 (at least to me) but I’m looking forward!

I’m also so happy for AZ!!

He looks so much better and he has his Floette around. (Hope we’re getting a Floette or even the whole evolution line to be catchable!)

So and since it’s gonna be future-esque I’m wondering if someone gets eebied and/or who else we will meet as themse or their descendants!!

IM SO SORRY IM SO LATE TO THIS BUT THANK YOU FOR ASKING ME FOR MY THOUGHTS!! ^^

LONG LONG RAMBLE INCOMING!!

Gonna be honest what I saw of Z-A disappointed me a little haha. I’m still excited for it but it hit me the same way SV did. I’ll play it but I don’t feel the same excitement for it as I did PLA.

And yes, as of now Ingo and Akari play a very big part in my interest with PLA, but back when we got our very first trailer for PLA showing the gameplay, I knew nothing about the story but just seeing we were going to be out in the wilderness in a noticeably different time period made me SO EXCITED.

I’d assumed PLZA would also be in the past since the series is titled Legends, but I was wrong haha. And that was a massive disappointment for me. My fault for expecting it, I should know not to do that for pokemon games lol, but that was a huge draw for me to PLA — to be in a different time period to see how people bonded with pokemon back then. I didn’t even KNOW I wanted something like that until I saw PLA’s first trailer. So to get another game that while yes, it’s in the future, from what we’ve seen so far it’s virtually indistinguishable from the technology, society, and lifestyle we see in every other mainline game, it feels… not boring to me exactly, but certainly not exciting lol.

BUT I am VERY excited to see how real-time battles go. Another huge plus from me was how PLA changed the traditional battle system a little bit, and I feel like I may end up liking this battle system even more with its more drastic changes. I’m just a little nervous how dependent these battles will be on reaction times as my neck injury is still messing with the use of my hands and I cannot play games like this without hurting them. But I’m probably imagining worst case scenarios (this is still a kid’s franchise after all) and I’m hoping my neck will be fixed by then so that I can enjoy it.

AND AS FOR AZ. I AM SO HAPPY FOR THAT MAN. As far as I know, we’ve never had media that shows how AZ as Floette are doing together after they’ve reunited. I’m so happy we get to see this now, and that AZ is a happier man, and that Floette is back and can see how much he’s changed for her. I love them very much and it was cathartic to see how things got better as time went on.

I wouldn’t say I’m exactly expecting it, but I wouldn’t be surprised if eternal flower Floette get’s have an entire line for it that is not unique and can now be catchable; I have seen people point out how new entries now refer to this variant as ‘Eternal Flower Floette’ instead of ‘AZ’s Floette’ now. So we’ll see! I’m very excited to see this game’s new Pokemon forms in general.

Honestly I do not think we’re going to see someone else get thrown through space-time (and I’d rather not it’s very sad lol) but you never know, seeing as we got to see Looker’s/Emma’s office in the trailer. I AM however very excited to see if we do end up getting more descendants like what SV’s indigo disk did. I always think it’s fun to see that!

Overall, I am looking forward to PLZA. I want to see more content from it before I decide how I feel about it, and then I need to play to see if those feelings are unfounded. I already know it will most likely not hit me the same way PLA did but that is ok.

Thanks for asking for my thoughts anon, I always appreciate when someone wants to hear them ;w; <3

Hey , just wanted to say I randomly stumbled across your blog while I was looking for something and I'm glad I did :) I read through your archive on a tricky morning at the minor injuries clinic and it made the wait fly by. So thanks for your work and keep it up.

AH OP THANK YOU SO MUCH ;w; <3 it means so much that you read through my stuff, and I’m so happy it helped you out when you needed time to pass quickly. That’s the biggest compliment I can ever ask for and it’s really motivated me so much to get this very kind ask ;w; thank you for taking the time to send me this message!!! Hoping to get more out soon!!!

Super excited for the new merch drop! Can we have a link to your shop?

Thank you so much!!! Yes, here is my link to my store!! Gotta add this to my pinned post haha I keep forgetting.

I also have an Etsy, but I do not recommend it; the prices are more expensive and the selection is not as big as my bigcartel ^^

Hey there! Same anon from the zorua-walker rambler! With my typical timing, I found a great clip after I sent the ask thanks YouTube. But this clip makes me feel some similarity to the Hisuian wilderness in game, plus the caution for the village? It's the cherry on top!

https://youtu.be/dqDfwOEsBj4?feature=shared

OH I AGREE VERY MUCH!! Love the scenes showing the fields and the trees in the rain, really love the way the forest was designed. And you’re correct, it’s so similar with the one village that’s expanding.

Loving this AU anon!!!! I can already tell I’m gonna be thinking about this a lot for a while haha

Gosh your content tugs on my heartstrings, I can't recall the last time I've absorbed fanfics and incredible comics for hours! :)

Some of your incredible AUs have swept into my daydreaming, and having recently rewatched some scenes from Wolfwalkers, I couldn't stop this from strirring into the mix. So now I'm stuck with the idea of Akari becoming somewhat of a 'wolfwalker', or a zorua/zoroark-walker to be more specific!

Now I can't stop picturing Zorua-Akari causing trouble in her new form, and it's hard to conclude she's behind it all; her body is sheltered somewhere and likely sound asleep! If we opt for more angst though, maybe she would be driven from jubilife village as zoruas are (were?) shunned for manifesting illusions? Yet on a brighter side, there could be valuable lessons and exciting adventures waiting around the corner!

But what I can't really flesh out is how Akari (or Ingo if he is there to witness it) will handle this bizarre shift in her everyday experience: I like to think she'd be on edge at first, but quickly come to see the perks of being a 'wild' zorua. But if something did escalate, how much can she handle?

I apologise for this lengthy brainstorm, but I hope you don't mind! :) Thank you for so much great content and well fleshed-out AUs! Your portrayal of the characters are so good and made me see them in a new light!

HEY ANON!! Thank you so much for the kind words!! I’m so so so happy you like my works!! ;w; it means a lot to hear that!! Thank you!!

Now for your idea; I LOVE WOLFWALKERS. It’s a great movie and cartoon saloon’s strong shapes in their visuals is always so well done!! Wonderful movie, and I think your concept is such a fun one to work with!!

Akari getting to be a zorua while she sleeps is such a fun idea, just like the movie I could see it really being about her getting used to being one with the other wild zorua and zoroark. And then as it goes on, I really like the idea that this extends into the exile part of PLA’s narrative, and gets more serious.

It would be interesting to see how these media’s narratives mesh. Would the red sky be blamed on zorua and zoroark walkers in this narrative? I think for Akari, how I see it is she would find being a zorua exciting and fun. She’d keep it a secret for a while but eventually she couldn’t help but start showing it to close people — there’s nothing wrong with it, people are wrong for thinking it’s dangerous. But maybe the wrong person sees, or she shows someone she thought she could trust. Then uh oh, she gets exiled and a hunt is initiated.

And as for Ingo (if you are considering the dynamics I write them in), I feel like he would handle things much the way Robyn’s dad Bill did, it’s a struggle at first and he doesn’t understand. But at some point he must make a choice and embraces it — either like Bill does, actually becoming a wolfwalker (zoroarkwalker?) himself, or just more accepting Akari is now one herself and he can’t separate her from that.

Not sure how it could go, but ultimately it’s your AU idea!! Such a fun concept anon, there’s a lot you could do with it and I would love to hear more if you ever want to share! For now I just had to try and put these guys into the wolfwalkers artstyle. Thanks for sharing this with me!!!
