Description (kicks mental health breakdown under the bed like it never happened) WE'RE BACK
Missed last month's by a hair length but eh, what can you do. Kind of a smaller, slower paced page with less happenings (once again my hubris was too great and I had to cut a scene at the end) but hopefully it's still enjoyable to read! I'm very tired and just want to sleep but I have work so, I'll keep this brief! I'll edit this page later so forgive any errors, I'm very tired aha. 
Also as an aside, TYSM for everyone who voted By the Sword in the ganza! By the Sword placed first for Best New Comic and third in Best Redesigns! I'll be drawing a proper thank you art at some point, but uh, to make a long story short many happy tears were shed. I can't thank you guys enough ;w;;
As always, thank you for reading! 

NOTES:
-I promised Magnolia will play a role! I feel a bit bad because of the slow update schedule, meaning the story really is a slow burn, but we'll get there I promise!
-A lot of this page was just me going :3c about revealing small tidbits of information. 
-Oh shit is that.... proper bgs? Look at my poor attempts! Bless the 100 days nuzlocke server for sharing some good bg brushes, so I decided to experiment! Once again, not the best I've done, but I think with some practice I'll prefer this method of bg-ing  
-Aaaaand introducing lessons with Milo lmao, this is another scene I've been excited to draw! Perhaps we'll be spending some time with other gym leaders too... hopeully it won't take another year to find out RIP
-STINKY BOI NAME REVEAL!! Okay, I know any name is gonna be a step down from previously calling him stinky bastard boi, but ah well ;w; Ninja turtle name for a stinky lil man. Ingame, Raph did indeed join the team after I caught him! Switched it up in story for reasons, but for now, he's on the battling team and Charles is just a companion Pokemon and thus cannot participate in battle c: 
-Oof at that ending though... don't kill me for what happens next page >w>'

"Alot of this page was just me going :3c about revealing small tidbits of information"

YEAH I SEE THAT. DAMN. Where to even start???

I guess with the beginning. LADY MEREDITH. Oh lady meredith. First of all, I see you blushing at Oleana. Same. A mood. Second, I just love how you portrayed her here. One of my fav things is seeing one character implicitly developed through another relating character. And seeing the dismissive way she was reacting to Eleanor's excited nature just brought Hop's less than stellar home life full circle. So I can't wait for more development on that/ a possible reason why she's so dismissive. I mean from experience, I know alot of people who put a damper on people's excitement because they've lived a life of their own excitement being stomped out. So I'm very curious 👀 Also curious about what exactly Rose is mandating here...can't wait to see him again in the comic.

SONIA HAS A SISTER?? Idk if this was mentioned before, but I like the way you brought it up here. Honestly I just love all the baggage these characters have in general LOL there's nobody who I look at and go "oh, they're surface level/ their journey starts and ends with their involvement in Tumble's story" and I really enjoy that kind of character development. Especially now that it's making me wonder if I can go back and pick up on any offhanded mentions of Sonia's missing sibling in regards to her relationship to the boys or something. Or even makes me wonder if that's why Leon is so strict on them.

The milo gym section was so GENUINELY ENJOYABLE? Like. It's the pure indulgence in world building for me. And it also reveals a bit about Tumble's impatience to get better/ seeming dislike of tiny formalities that made me think "wow he and Raphael actually have a similar temperament here". And speaking of...

WELCOME TO THE TEAM RAPHAEL. You absolute flirt. And GOD I swear every page I just ship Martin and Laurie more. Laurie nuzzling up against him and saying "hey it's for the kids" made me SOFT. There's honestly so many good pairs in this team lineup. And then there's charles, the baby, who gets along with everyone. Precious.

NOW LETS HOPE "don't blame me for what happens next" IS A MISDIRECT
