Part I

A/N: I am sick and can't stop sneezing from some allergies that decided to cruelly attack. So, I wrote three pages of a cute little drabble out of nowhere that I may or may not continue because, as always, I have Ideas.

[Part I] [Part II] [Part III]

Summary: Emmet is sick. Ingo frets.

***

Thrown forward by the force, Emmet gritted his teeth as he felt the spasms travel down his back before tightening at the bottom of his spine. The pain repeated itself twice, three times, again- 

“You are not going into work today like this. You can’t even stop sneezing.” Glaring up at his brother, Emmet’s body betrayed him as he tried to plead his case. This time he sneezed five times in a row and could feel the frustrated tears welling up in his eyes. He did his best to not let them show.

“I am Emmet. I am-” Hm. He did not like to lie, and he wasn’t sure he could claim he was fine. “I am functional. I can still complete my duties as I am.”

Ingo stared at him, verrry judgemental, which, well. Emmet had collapsed on the couch as the sneezing fit had overtaken him. But he had recovered! Ingo seemed to be waiting for it to happen again, and Emmet wouldn’t give him the satisfaction even as he could feel the burning at the roof of his mouth and the terrible sensation of something almost dripping and the burning increasing- 

“That is your fifth attack since we woke up, Emmet. We have only been awake for an hour.” Ingo had, at least, waited until Emmet had recovered and blown his nose. “Even if you show no other symptoms and this is a case of allergies, I highly doubt working underground with trains and Pokemon battles will help you recover.” 

“Allergies are always the worst after waking up. As soon as we get to Gear Station I will be fine.” He hoped he would, at least. Was it lying if he wished it wasn’t one? 

“And if you are not?” Mm. That was not a question he wished to answer. Ingo seemed to realize he wasn’t going to get an answer because he sighed heavily, shaking his head. “Let me take your temperature one more time. If it has remained unchanged, I will not force the issue and allow you to go.” 

“Deal!” Emmet beamed, muffling another few sneezes into his tissues as Ingo left to get the thermometer. After he finished blowing his nose, he made a face and immediately held the tissues out towards a fretting Garbordor. “I am once again verrry grateful we have you with us.” 

Their precious little thing gurgled happily before devouring the tissues, Emmet gently patting the steel she used for her arm. Since Ingo’s fretting hadn’t allowed him to dress for work, yet, he could feel how cool it was against his hand, the sensation nice after his body felt so heated from all the sneezing. 

“Emmet.” Startling at his name, Emmet looked up to where Ingo was sitting beside him- When had he gotten back? No, better, when had he sat down? “Please remain still and I apologize for any discomfort.” 

Ah. Ah. It was the ear one. Emmet hated the ear one. It must have shown on his face since Ingo’s expression softened before he held out his free hand, Emmet quickly latching on. “I apologize, I know you don’t like this. It is the surest way to confirm your temperature, however.” 

“Nn. Hurry?” Emmet shut his eyes as soon as Ingo nodded, trying to not squirm at the invasive feeling. As soon as it beeped to confirm it was finished, Emmet was jerking away and rubbing his ear. It usually wasn’t that bad, but his ears ached. Probably from all the sneezing? “May I be allowed to get dressed for work, now?”

“You may not.” Wha- But he had let Ingo take his temperature! He had said-! “I might not be, as well.” Emmet squirmed to look at the gauge at the clear worry in Ingo’s tone, squinting at the number and then wincing, and, okay. That was… not great. “Emmet, your temperature has risen three degrees within the past hour.” 

“Maybe it was wrong?” Emmet suggested weakly, whining when he felt Ingo’s hand against his forehead. He hated it because it felt cool and he knew what that meant, especially as Ingo gently tilted him forward before feeling at his back, collarbones, and upper sides. “Bad?”

“Bad.” Dammit. “You’re burning up. Here, lean back- Good. I will get you a cold compress and some pain relief to bring your fever down. After I will call us both out of work-”

“No- Wait, wait, don’t give me that look,” Emmet whined, waiting a moment to make sure Ingo wasn’t about to cut him off, first. “I’ll stay home. And rest. But at least one of us should go in. Gear Station cannot be missing both of its bosses.” 

Ingo looked like he was just barely stopping himself from pacing as he stood from the couch, bullying Emmet into laying down fully and stretching out. He then looked at him again before sighing. “You will rest? And call me on my breaks? Or fi it gets worst? You will need to take your temperature every hour until it starts to drop, and-” 

“Ingo,” Emmet interrupted, laughing and earning him another sneezing fit that Ingo handed him more tissues for. “Thank you. And I will be fine. I have been sick before. Besides, if you stay here you will likely get it as well. One of us should be healthy.”

“I’ll get it no matter what with how clingy you are when sick,” Ingo, the liar, complained. He then brushed Emmet’s bangs back and leaned down to kiss his forehead, Emmet relaxing and growing soft and mushy. “I will still get you a compress and the medicine you need. I am not running the Super Singles line so I will leave you Chandelure. She will be able to monitor you if things grow dire.” 

“Worrier,” Emmet grumbled, even as he softened into mush at his brother’s care and worry. “Softie.” 

“Brat,” Ingo shot back, ruffling his hair. “I will be back.” 

It may have been the rising fever that Emmet had somehow missed up on waking up first thing, but between what felt like one moment and the next he was wound up in blankets on the couch and the front door was closing after Ingo left. 

Chandelure chimed softly above him, Emmet freeing a hand to pat cool glass, “I will be fine. I will heal. Worry about Ingo. He gets verrry lonely without me there to annoy him.” Ah, but in truth, Emmet got just as lonely. 

Squirming in his prison-slash-nest, Emmet opened up his xtrans and sent a message. ‘chandlr crying. misses u verrrrrrry much. come home soon.’ 

‘I am amazed at how you continue to defy autocorrect even with a fever.’ Heh. ‘Drink water. I will be home soon.’ 

‘Mother Ursaring.’ Emmet leaned over to grab the water he had been left and take a couple of sips. ‘Love you.’

‘I love you as well. I will be home soon.’ Mm… Emmet stared at the words, slowly frowning and hoping it was just his fever that filled him with a sense of unease. 

‘Promise?’

‘Promise.’

Here is a thing for month of emmet day 2! I believe the prompt was “friends & family” so here’s a young-ish nimbasa trio!

Trying my hand at rotoscoping Reigen's twirl. I'm really happy with how the coat turned out, so I wanted to post a wip in case I fuck up the rest.

they're doing advertisement for the subway

things me and my old roommates would do for 300

Sense Memory

The narrow window before management cuts back the spring blooms is one of my favourite times. But if I had to fight pokémon hiding in the tall grass to get to my train, I'd be significantly less pleased.

On a different note, here's a more light-hearted separate sketchy scenario that didn't really fit with the previous lot;

Apparently Elesa loves bad puns and that's hilarious to me.

Yes, for real, my day job is driving passenger trains. Choo Choo, Stop, Go, Open Doors, "Please move down inside the train" The whole shebang. It's a pretty good gig but scores high on the 'monotony' chart; same routes, same trains, 9 hours on the bounce, but yeah I do enjoy it :)

If you're ever interested in the rail, no matter what country you're in, there will be rail forums run by enthusiasts who'll have all the info you could possibly want. 👍

I literally JUST saw this idea in the tag search, but apparently theres an idea that sneasler sees Ingo as her MOM and I'm kinda in love with it?

The thought of this happening is super funny and while I don’t take it seriously I LOVE IT TOO ANON

and if it’s not clear enough I am referencing this video at the end haha

(Headcanon is by @cutekittenlady !!)

I like the idea of Ingo and Emmet adopting a hisuian sneasle

[BLANKSHIPPERS DNI}

Follow the rules!! ٩(๑`^´๑)۶

Haha it started with the doodle of ingo yeeting someone by the ankles and evolved to all this lol Not based on any particular hcs, its all just for fun.

Baby Submas! Headcanon that they were paper boys when they were little, to earn some money and get supplies for when they could go out and get pokemon! Emmet’s the only one that can ride the bike well, but Ingo’s got a great arm and is good at boosting morale (and he gets the whistle) so it all works out. Everyone in the neighborhood is waken up early with a train whistle and a loud thud on their door every morning, always punctual and always with enthusiasm. (pt.2 with elesa) (nimbasa trio shenanigans)

Bonus Ingo saying no-no words under cut:

this came to me like a psychic punch

inspired by @archangel-fucking-judas​ and this particular post about the submas twins

also adaman is a BITCH to draw

+Bonus from mod chandelure

I think it’d be funny if you could just hover over the MC’s shoulder and peer pressure them into going off script

gee emmet how come you get ten bajillion joltiks

【REUNION】

Sort of a messily drawn part 2 to this comic. People kept asking for the hug and i.....,,, I have a lot of feelings about reunion hugs ok. those hugs that are so emotional you dont even know how to hang onto the other person, or what to say. also i know realistically there'd be a fucking crater where Ingo stood after Emmet came in flying in like that, but we're here to have fun and cope.

follow me | leave a tip

i had more but im too tired

i just wanted to draw funny train men doing funny train men things

Emmet trying to hold back his laughter

16th of March, 2022

Welp, I’ve become emotionally invested in the funny little train twins thanks to Pokémon Legends Arceus, so have an obligatory “reunite the boys” comic.

I was thinking about how the first time Ingo smiles in any of the games (shh, forget about the anime and manga) is in Legends Arceus… while he’s separated from Emmet. Some dialogue in Pokémon Masters EX shows that Ingo isn’t very aware of what facial expressions he’s making, so he wouldn’t notice. He wouldn’t have the reputation of “that guy that never smiles” in Hisui, so nobody there would make a big deal out of it. So I imagined this reunion scenario where Emmet makes a very big deal about it, and the thought wouldn’t leave me alone until I drew it.

Bonus headcanon: I imagine the twins get into excitement feedback loops a lot. Where one is excited about something, the other responds with more excitement, which is echoed with even more excitement, and so on and so forth until it’s an enthusiastic shouting match. Which Ingo will always win because he’s Very Loud like that.

more doobles, why not

Imagine being American and getting dropped in Japan, but you don’t know Japanese, and you also don’t know what Japan is, or what America is, or what English is, so you gaslight yourself into thinking maybe you straight up forgot what real words are too.

[Siblings, Siblings… Sister?]

More kid Nimbasa trio stuff… I just think Emmet and Elesa would make great friendly rivals to each other… They’re both like “Finally, a worthy opponent!” while Ingo’s trying to make sure it doesn’t go into an all out brawl. They’ll all mellow out eventually (and Elesa will end up taller than them), but for now… rowdy bunch.

Not all products for Pokemon are good for human consumption. Also, if you haven’t accidentally gotten your sibling sick in some way, are you really siblings?

My Other Kid Nimbasa Trio || Kid Submas Content

i need to stop

( pkmn ) happy pokemon day! there is nothing wrong.

【BROTHER!】

This is fastest I’ve ever churned out a comic, and it was fueled by needing to see Emmet ride on top of a train thats on fire. Fandom said Emmet gets to be unhinged, and i said “say less” lmaoo

I just need them to reunite, I’m begging.

Bonus dumb thing:

Edit: This has a part 2 now!

whoever thought of the Soul Eater AU for the Nimbasa Trio ur brain is HUGE

tfw your entire team gets un-evolved so you can't fight in the subway, but they're too cute to be annoyed about it

((Extra under the cut))

happy father’s day!

Whatever mane. hreeef
