hi, been a while! because of that, this author’s note is a little bit longer than normal.
it’s been… almost one year since the last moon update! wowie!! mostly because i’ve been busy, but also due to waning interest in general. i started moon three and a half years ago, at a time when covid was causing me to reflect on my past and yearn for the teenage years i’d ‘lost’ to mental health issues, trauma, and chronic illness. pearl is, in a way, a version of 15-16 year old me trapped in time. but as i’ve grown older and learned to become more content with the present, i’ve felt a bit of a disconnect for this reason.
but i still think, for the sake of myself three and a half years ago, and for the sake of pearl, that this deserves an ending. this isn’t that, yet. there’s still one chapter left to go, and probably an epilogue, so we’ll see how long it takes – hopefully not another year.
see you on the flip side!

AUGHHHHHHHHHH [EXPLODES] ITS DONE
5 months passes fast, huh? ive been super out of it since i last wrote moon but im trying to get my life together. maybe. also ive been a bit too preoccupied with ultra arc stuff sorry pearl :p
but yea More Drama:tm:! i promise ill try and make next chapter a bit lighter mood-wise. i very clearly have ‘pearlillie confession moments’ written in the outline for that.
this is a lot more lightly revised than normal simply because im lazy. sorry
ALSO 50K WORDS WE FINALLY DID IT GOTDAMN
…
Characters: Pearl, Lillie, Hau, Guzma, Acerola, Gladion, Colress, Lune
AN:
hi i said i’d work on the website more but uh. i went 2 the er and ended up getting a chunk of this done (JUST NORMAL FIC AUTHOR THINGS <3) so i figured i’d just finish it anyways
idk really how to feel about this chapter. its not lighthearted and silly because things are getting more serious and i uh. am not sure how to write serious things. oops
also lune is here (sorry)
but 50k wordsssssss………….. Soone:tm:

Characters: Pearl, Lillie, Kukui, Hau, Guzma, Acerola
AN:
hi besties. take this
i know my standards for revisions are low but this is literally not revised one bit. i didn’t even look over it myself other than skimming im just like #yolo this time i guess
the acerola thing is confusing without au context im sorry </3
…It’s finally over… right?
Returning home is difficult, and Ridley is upset.
Characters: Ridley, Aster, Pearl
Warnings: Pokemon Legends Arceus intro-level spoilers, mental breakdowns
Wordcount: 1,222
Vibe: Ridley has a mental breakdown and does something stupid
AN:
i havent actually seen the footage for the intro ive only had it described but like. call me pokemon move future sight
anyways addtl context: like, directly post endgame. ridley gets jealous and their feelings overtake them, but with no way to properly expel the feelings they get overwhelming
idk thought id write an intro to the legends arc that i wont write for another 6 months probably. aka ridley has to defeat their inner demons in a fractured reality past while arceus eats popcorn bc they got their emotions back
its not 3am but im still not revising this
Edit:
The ending is retconned because at the time I hadn’t actually seen the intro. In-universe Laventon finds Ridley, not Adaman.
