Gigantic aurora Pokemon in a nostalgic nighttime dreamscape of ice and sparkling stars. There are 12 kinds of creatures in this illustration - some obvious, others well hidden. Can you find 'em all?

Only on the darkest arctic nights can you encounter this Primordial PokΓ©mon. It manifests as aurora and ice, gently towering over the pole's frigid denizens...

Dave and Jade meeting at the bar of a club. Dave is leaning over the bar a little to talk to Jade, flirting with her. Jade is smiling a little, clearly interested. This is a scene from chapter 1 of the fic linked in the post.

Dave Strider has a toddler sitting on his shoulders. He is holding onto the kid's legs to keep him stable, while the kid is throwing his arms out in excitement. The kid looks a lot like a younger Dave, but with green eyes. Behind them is a giraffe in a zoo enclosure. This is a scene from chapter 5 of the linked fic.

An image of Dave and Jade as super heroes. They are standing along a street that has recently been through a storm, so there is debris littering the road. The ocean can be seen in the background. Dave is giving Jade a thumbs up. There is another copy of Dave in the background, helping to clean up the debris.

An excerpt from the fic that reads: 

He wanted to meet in a park that was about halfway between the International Headquarters and the city of Prospit. They had agreed to the spot during their meeting a couple of days ago - it was a city nobody would be expecting to see them in, meaning that it was the best place to exchange information that they didn't want anybody knowing they had. He had either found something interesting about Vitruvian in his research, or he had some updates about Rose. Either were good things to know. Jade confirmed she'd be there in an hour or so, and she got herself ready.

It took her a few trips via teleportation to get there, and it was especially tricky since she was going as her civilian self rather than as Lady Eclipse. People would notice if a super hero was considerably outside her district at some random park, but nobody knew the name or face of Jade Harley. Her unmasked face was the perfect disguise. Once she got to the park, she swiftly found John and sat next to him on a bench.

"Hi John!" she said, relieved to see a friendly face. "How are you?"

Jade and John sitting on a park bench, looking at each other. John is holding a folder in his hand and is looking at Jade with worry. Jade looks tired, but has a hint of a smile on her face.

Jade Harley is in Prospit, in a Prospit princess gown picking yellow flowers. There is a basket of the flowers next to her and a Prospit citizen standing close by, offering her a pink flower.

Two color variations of a fakemon. The PokΓ©mon looks like a squat bipedal spider with two big round eyes and an extra set of smaller eyes. It wears a veil made of its own silk based loosely on ancient greek veils. The one on the left has a light grey, blue, and gold color scheme, and the one on the right has a black, white, and silver color scheme.

Jade and Dave are facing each other on either side of a glass pane, their hands pressed up against the glass to look like they're touching. Jade is dressed in a super hero outfit with a white visor that has dog ears on it and a cape. Dave is dressed in a gray sweatshirt and is wearing a hero mask.

A snippet from the fic that reads: Dave walked over to the glass. He couldn't touch Jade through the glass, but he could at least get closer to her. He reached up to place his hand against it - even if it was uncomfortable being so close to something that dampened his powers, being a little closer to Jade was worth it. "If you ask me, I think we should be considering the pros and cons of bringing kids into the business of being heroes in the first place. Like, why are you putting the weight of the world on my shoulders? I'm ten."

Jade laughed at that, and she placed her hand over his. It was cheesy, but it made his heart skip a beat all the same. "You may be onto something there, Dave," she agreed, though her smile soon fell into a more serious expression. "I'm sorry about freaking out on you earlier."

A snippet from the fic that reads: 

"Jade marched out of the warehouse, Dave close behind her. Even with her visor on, she still squinted at the barrage of lights that were hitting them from the combination of police cars and cameras trying to capture their emergence. Standing in the center of it all, backlit by the flash of the authorities, stood Vitruvian. 

"Eclipse," he said, his voice stern as ever. Jade wondered if she was imagining the barely constrained anger underneath. "What happened in there? Where is the villain?"

Jade took a deep breath, steeling herself. She'd never been great at lying, but this was life or death. "She's dead," she said."

Bro Strider is dressed as a super hero, with a pointed mask like Robin from Batman, a purple cape similar to ult!Dirk, and a black top that has the logo with a "V" on it. He is backlit by flashing lights from behind him and is wearing a stern expression.

A snippet from the fic that reads:  "Dave?"

For as much as Dave had tried to hide his identity from her, he had known this was coming. It was one thing to hide his former identity from her when he hadn't touched it in ten years, but now that he was actively wearing the mask? Of course she'd want to talk to Coolkid again, and then it would basically be inevitable that she'd notice all of the similarities between Coolkid and Dave.

He had considered running after Rose was taken down. It wouldn't have been too hard. Rose's weird power shit wasn't working anymore, so he could have easily just paused time and gotten himself the fuck out of there. But he couldn't do that to Jade. Now that she knew Coolkid was alive, it'd eat her up if he went and vanished out of nowhere.

"Yeah." He shrugged his shoulders a little. He wasn't sure how else to handle this. He wasn't sure what to even say. Did he go for the apology right off the bat, or did he let Jade chew him out for being duplicitous first?

Jade took off her helmet, letting them speak face-to-face, and it drove in the spike of guilt all the harder. He watched her face go through a whole range of emotions that he could only guess at. Shock, obviously, but he wasn't sure if that little furrow of her brow was anger or confusion or grief. He took a deep breath, and so did she.
