Oops, amazing how shifting programs can mess up your mind. I’ve been doing a lot of research online lately…

Have I mentioned how I dislike chemistry? Probably…

Red runs and dances in the puddles, and Lance chases him through the wet grass, pinning him to the ground easily and licking his face happily. Their ears twitch in tandem, and everything smells good after the rain, and rain will make the plump berries grow on their bushes, and if it really rains hard, he and Lance huddle inside their den and cuddle each other.

They drink fresh water from the sky and Lance grooms him, as they shake the muddy water off their pelts and chew on stored food, seeing rainbows flit across dusky gray storm-clouds.

He’s happy.

Exactly 100-word drabble! WOOT!

Some Zoofic Information I have complied (I created this!)

Lance and Red are members of a species called ‘Champions’ who only mate with each other. Their pokemon are summoned as they acquire ‘shinies’ (gym badges) and grow older. Their pelt patterns also change then. Young Reds wear a blue pelt (jeans) and black pelt (black T-shirt), and as he grows older he acquires black hand-pelts (his electric-proof gloves), a red-and-white head pelt (League cap) and red-and-white outer pelt (red-and-white jacket). Young Lances were a pure black pelt (black bodysuit), and as they grow older, acquire the red and black pelt (red-and-black bodysuit of anime! Lance). Then, if they get evil enough or fierce enough, they grow a pure black pelt with a red over-pelt and a black pelt over that (manga! Lance attire with red jacket and black cape).

Lances hate Yellows. They are both predators but attack each other. Yellows will kill both Reds and Lances, though if they kill a Red that already has a Pikachu, they will steal it.

Lance’s partner pokemon is Dratini who soon evolves into Dragonair. Red’s partner pokemon is Poliwag who soon evolves into Poliwhirl.

Red is the one who carries the babies, though some strange reproductive process (MPREG?) and Lance has sharp claws and teeth that he hunts with. He provides food for his mate.

Brothers will mate each other.

Manga! Lance has healing powers and can communicate telepathically with pokémon, so that stays.
