Flower meadows and ocean breeze. Scented candle men.
For the Perfectworldshipping week prompt "Scent", with our boys from the Mer!Lysandre AU! One of the many subtle ways you could tell these two come from different worlds (aka Lysandre is a fish).

A little something for the Perfectworldshipping week prompt "Give and Take", with the Lysandre&Augustine from our Mer!Lysandre AU! (Here in human form, thanks to the local sea witch ;) )
As Lysandre himself says (in Masters EX at least): "It's important to share with others. Be careful not to find yourself always taking. Ensure you're also able to give."
Augustine is a very giving person in general, and they make little gifts to each other! Sometimes is more of the other's favorite food. Sometimes it's a perfect, shiny piece of fossilized ammonite shell that has immense scientifical and market value. Surprise!
(This is also an illustration for the chapter five of "Fish don't Cry", where this exact thing happens :) https://archiveofourown.org/works/75971131/chapters/207588696 )

Lil' Augustine wants to be friends with a mermaid. He thinks that throwing random objects in the water will be enough.
Remember: the sea gives, the sea takes. Hey, exactly like legendary pokémon!
Illustration to accompany a little fic, both created for the PerfectWorldShippingWeek2026! Theme: Family/Childhood.

Looking for some samples together, now that the tide is a little lower. Isn't this what they call "quality time"?
(Once again, a sketch from our sketchbooks, done with ballpoint pen).

(While we wait for the "official" post with all the links, both the original world version and the fanfiction version, I wanted to show you that we already posted the fanfiction version, yaaay! Enjoy it!)

The most beautiful man you've ever seen isn't a man. He's a silver fish, with carmine fins, and a body like a reflective ribbon stretching into the abyss.
Digital illustration for our merfolk Pokémon AU.
And we even came up with names for them! (Normally, when we "transport" characters into our AUs, we tend to change their names, since we already know the characters will change until they become completely unrecognizable OCs... so they're a bit like "Schrödinger characters," both fan-characters and canon until we "open the box," or in this case, until the book arrives).
Merman!Lysandre will be Sangreal (he already has a page! https://fantasydiario.blogspot.com/2025/12/character-sangreal.html ), while Professor Sycamore becomes Professor Seraphin Panorme, a marine biologist. You can think of it as two AUs: one where they are alternate versions of Lysandre and Professor Sycamore, and one where they are alternate versions of the alternate versions (and don't worry, we'll be working on both! Both Merman!Lysandre and Sangreal will just have more or less the same design, despite having separate identities. We guess? It's blurry, we'll see case to case).
We should start writing their story soon (fingers crossed!), and we promise it will be... absolutely epic.
