Yep, he actually considers giving train passengers piggyback rides in the game. Go for it, buddy.

The Shadow of Takeryuu, Chapter 5

Chapter 1 - Chapter 2 - Chapter 3 - Chapter 4 - Chapter 5

Wai Ren was obviously not supposed to be anywhere but the fortress, but thankfully the relic Kougra’s own colouring provided a convenient solution. He created an animated clay replica of himself and ordered it to pretend to be ill. With this effigy of himself huddled under several blankets, by the time the servants discovered the real Wai Ren was gone, he would be too far away.

Having done that, the general hid his ornate armour under a travelling cloak and donned a wide bamboo hat, and then he and his three companions stole away to a side gate to watch the wagons leave for Saro Village.

“You couldn’t have just changed armour?” Ganzorig asked as they leaned against the cool earthen walls.

“This armour is expertly made and enchanted with several protective spells,” Wai Ren said. “I would not exchange it for a lesser set. I am sure Miss Min understands well what the value of proper armour is to one who wields a blade.”

Min flinched, fidgeting with the strap that kept her pudao fastened to her back. “S-sure.”

 

There is a distinct difference between "dressed like a Team Rocket member" and an actual Team Rocket member.

 I couldn't resist another paleontology parody poster. :) Yi qi is an adorable little theropod from the Mid-Late Jurassic of China. Its name 翼奇 means "strange wing" because it appears to have had membranous, batlike wings. So basically it was the closest dinosaurs ever got to being actual dragons. <3 Its name is pronounced "ee chee", so... you can see how this happened.

 Silly Collector. The friendship mechanic doesn't have any battle perks until Pokémon X and Y.

... But also I just really wanted to draw a Lickitung with an afro.

 I mean, when you talk to this guy in Ilex Forest, he doesn't appear to actually have a Pokémon with him, so...

 I'm launching a new line of merch on Redbubble that's all about... reimagining historic scientists as cats. Yep. That's what cat moms do.

First up is Mary Anning, because she's my friend Ashley Hall's favorite paleontologist and I wanted to give the woman her due. Accompanying Meowry Anning is her furry friend Tray, who is also featured on Mary's statue in Lyme Regis.

Meowry is specifically excavating the famous holotype specimen of Temnodontosaurus that the real Mary Anning and her brother Joseph discovered in 1810-1812. Mary was actually just a tween at the time, but I wanted to include a real and recognizable fossil of hers in this illustration. (I mean, if you care that much about accuracy, she also shouldn't be a cat, so.)

More coming in following weeks!
