I really wish it didn't take me so long to start this set, but after I put up the last set, I went on vacation for a week, and I've been working almost every day since returning. After working six and a half hours in the sun, I usually come home and crash because I'm too tired to do anything else. I finally got a few days off, so I got a chance to start (and finish) the set. I'm going to miss writing these; they were really fun. This is the set with the oddest words in my opinion. The first time I saw it, I had to look a few of them up because I had no clue what they meant xD …And I really want to apologize for the extreme lateness in this update. I've been busy, but this took forever for me to get up. I swear, I have a problem with finishing things. It's why I prefer one-shots.

Oh, and I just want to send a shout out to Ashy-boy and Ren the Ryoko from the Honorshipping board on bulbagarden. I was creeping the forums before work once and saw the thread. So if you two are still reading this, I just want to say hi xD

Thanks to everyone who's stuck by and kept reading these, especially those who reviewed. I really want to thank Shizuku Tsukishima749 and fivespice93 for their kind reviews. This last set is dedicated to you for being such sweet reviewers and always making my day when I read your reviews. :)

Disclaimer: For presumably the last time, I don't own Pokémon, nor do I own anything affiliated with it. I just wish I did. Oh, and I apologize for the probably many typos in this because well…yeah. I didn't really proofread this and the only person who would proofread is in Florida for a week…and then left after she got back for Massachusetts. Work makes me deliriously dehydrated (thank you over six hour shifts in the sun) so…if there are mistakes, I apologize now.


#1 (Farce): Morty and Falkner's first date was more…disastrous than romantic, starting with running into a suspicious Whitney in Goldenrod City, continuing with Morty's ghosts causing mischief, and ending with a failed attempt at a first kiss; Morty was genuinely shocked when Falkner told him that he had a good time and he'd call the other soon, having expected the younger boy to have been scared away from dating after their chaotic – yet humorous to anyone who was a bystander – first date.

#2 (Infuriating): At first Morty's ghosts were furious with the presence of an intruder stealing time from their master and did everything to drive away the young would-be priest – although to his credit, Falkner handled their abuse extremely well; whenever the young boy was tormented by the ghosts, he'd simply brush it off and ignore their teasing until he finally won them over.

#3 (Vendor): Falkner could barely contain his excited smile as he walked around the festival – the first he'd ever attended for he was always busy with his gym and no one dared interrupt him before Morty came along – with his blond boyfriend who had a knack for guessing where Falkner wanted to go next; it was actually the excited look in Falkner's eyes that tipped Morty off about what the younger boy wanted and Morty would bring Falkner over to whichever vendor he wanted to see, ignoring any protests from Falkner about paying for him.

#4 (Blade): Falkner was a genius with a sword, the blade acting as an extension of himself instead of a separate entity, while Morty preferred a simple bow and arrow made not so simple by his powers; when the two were put together, they became an unstoppable force but their greatest strength lay not in their weapons, nor their skills, but in the bond between them and the knowledge that they were together, no matter what happened.

#5 (Zenith): Falkner's true home was up in the sky, soaring as high as he could go with the birds he held so close to his heart, and while Morty didn't have the same love for the sky, he wanted to be part of Falkner's world; whenever Morty went flying at Falkner's request, he felt the near dizzying rush when he saw his boyfriend smile in sheer joy that Falkner felt whenever he was in the sky.

#6 (Fanciful): Falkner was taught to live in a simple manner with little to no indulgences, so when he was thrust into the modern world with all the freedom he wanted, he wasn't sure what he was supposed to do because the monks' training was the complete opposite of what society dictated; Morty quickly became a guiding light for Falkner and taught him the balance between keeping tradition and having fun.

#7 (Arrogance): Most trainers who came into Falkner's gym found him to be haughty, self-righteous, and slightly naïve in thinking that his birds could beat electric types, but Morty knew what Falkner was like behind the mask he put up as a gym leader; the blue haired youth was a kind-hearted boy who spent his free time training future trainers in Violet City and constantly worried if he was strong enough to be part of the Pokémon League.

#8 (Deception): Falkner's eyes stung and he tried unsuccessfully to keep the lump from forming in his throat after seeing Morty with Eusine; he couldn't believe he had been so foolish to think that he could trust Morty and after seeing his boyfriend – the boy he loved – with his ex-boyfriend made him question everything about their relationship.

#9 (Layers): Falkner blushed as he felt Morty's hands untying the haori-himo around his waist and when he asked what Morty was he doing, the blond replied that he was attempting to get through all the layers Falkner wore and that it would be a lot easier if there wasn't so much material; Falkner's blush only grew at Morty's reply and he couldn't help but look over at the door to ensure that it was locked and none of his trainers would burst in unexpectedly again because he had a sinking suspicion of what Morty wanted to do.

#10 (Insouciance): Falkner was amazed at how mellow Morty was – especially when he was the one who worried constantly about his trainers, his gym and its success, everything – and while it was almost infuriating to see how calm Morty always was, it was also one of the qualities Falkner admired most about the blond gym leader.

#11 (Nadir): After Falkner caught Morty with Eusine and the inevitable breakup that followed, Morty felt like his life had hit rock bottom; he closed his gym to prospective trainers and spent most of his time alone trying to figure out a way to earn Falkner's forgiveness and win him back.

#12 (Axis): The invisible line where the earth met the sky was also the point at which Morty and Falkner connected; although their worlds were separate, complete opposites even, they were drawn to each other and helped form a bridge to each other's worlds.

#13 (Economy): Falkner frowned as he tried yet again to calculate the trainers' salaries, gym expenses, and victor's money for the month because with the economy going downhill, it was getting difficult to manage money; however, as soon as Falkner's pencil hit the paper, he felt a pair of strong arms wrap around his waist and a smooth voice suggesting they headed to bed.

#14 (Windswept): Morty was surprised that Falkner's hair and clothing never seemed out of place with all of the flying he did; what he didn't know was that Falkner made sure to straighten his clothing and smooth down his hair before going inside to see Morty because he wanted to look presentable before seeing his boyfriend – not to say Morty would have minded seeing the blue haired boy looking less than perfect because no matter how he looked, Morty always found Falkner attractive.

#15 (Scatter): Falkner jumped and let go of the bag of birdseed in his hands, causing the seed to spill out everywhere onto the floor, when he heard a voice call out his name; he flushed in embarrassment as he turned around to see Morty standing in the entrance to the aviary with a bemused expression on his face.

#16 (Flay): Falkner could easily flay someone alive with his sword, but his skill with a sword was nothing compared to his sharp wit and even sharper tongue; whenever Morty and Falkner would fight, the younger boy's anger would get the best of him and he'd throw whatever comments he knew would sting the most at Morty, not realizing at the time how much he'd regret those comments later.

#17 (Video Games): Falkner had never even heard of a video game before, so when Morty took him to the game corner in Goldenrod City, the blue haired boy looked astounded by all the bright lights and loud sounds; Morty knew – although he couldn't quite say he cared – that Falkner's elders would be furious that he was taken to a place of such depravity and turpitude, but the look of childlike wonder on Falkner's face was worth the lecture he'd been given from both their respective elders.

#18 (Unleash): Falkner had never seen Morty's powers fully unleashed until Morty had finally given in and let Falkner come on a mission with him; the idea of Falkner getting hurt because he wasn't there kept Morty on his guard the entire time because he couldn't bear the thought of his boyfriend being injured.

#19 (Carnal): Falkner was from a deeply religious background and the monks he lived with frowned upon physical pleasures – especially the carnal desires of lust – which only served as a point of confusion for Falkner when his relationship with Morty became more involved; he knew he wasn't supposed to think about sexual desires, let alone sexual desires with another man, but Arceus, being with Morty felt so right.

#20 (Innocence): "I'm onto you…" Falkner mouthed behind Morty's back at the snickering ghosts, who were extremely pleased with themselves after a successful prank on the Flying Leader; unfortunately Falkner knew he just had to accept their torments until they got bored with him or finally realized that he wasn't like Eusine and he wasn't going to hurt him the way Eusine did when he left.

#21 (Alibi): If anyone asked where they had gone to, Bugsy promised to cover for Morty and Falkner and give the couple a good alibi as to where they had been and what they had been doing; the truth was actually that the two had snuck away to spend some time alone and rumors flew about what they were doing alone, but neither of them would reveal any details.

#22 (Staircase): "Don't you have a staircase?" Morty asked one day after taking the lift – which Morty was sure was rigged for whenever he came up because there was no possible way it was that fast for everyone who came up to see Falkner – to which the Flying specialist only chuckled and asked what would he need a staircase for when he had the lift to torture Morty with.

#23 (Follow): Morty had noticed a certain Pidgey had taken a liking to him – possibly because of how often he babied the birds – and the little bird followed him around every time he visited Falkner's gym; although he didn't mind the Pidgey's attention, Falkner usually commanded the bird to leave them alone and chided Morty for "babying the birds that were supposed to be trained to fight."

#24 (Inconceivable): At first, the thought that he and Morty could break up seemed inconceivable to Falkner, something that just could not happen, but after he saw Eusine kissing Morty, who claimed to be over his ex-boyfriend, he wasn't so sure anymore; how was he supposed to trust Morty again after something like that and could their relationship really survive the blow?

#25 (Trust): "I need you to trust me again Falkner; I promise I will never hurt you again, so please, just trust me…" Morty murmured softly against Falkner's ear, his breathe tickling the skin and causing him to shiver; Falkner's eyes, glittering like ice, almost seemed to melt after a few moments before he wrapped his arms around Morty for a tight hug, telling him that he was never allowed to hurt him like that again.

#26 (Deduce): It didn't take much for Falkner to figure out what was going on when he found his boyfriend pressed against the wall with his lips attached to his ex-boyfriend's; the feeling of hurt and betrayal took the breath out of Falkner's lungs and left him feeling hollow inside, but what he didn't see was Morty pushing Eusine away after the kiss or the way his eyes were filled with regret after Falkner saw them.

#27 (Betray): Morty couldn't help but feel sick at the feeling of Eusine's lips on his – not because of the kiss itself but because of the sinking feeling of guilt and betrayal toward Falkner because he didn't fight Eusine; the feeling of sickness only got worse when Falkner walked through the doors, frozen in horror at the sight of his boyfriend kissing someone else.

#28 (Pet): "He's only keeping you around because you're like some little pet to him; the only reason you're still here is because he doesn't have the heart to tell you that you don't matter to him!" Eusine yelled angrily, causing Falkner to flinch; as hard as it was, Falkner couldn't allow himself to think Eusine was right because if he allowed himself to doubt, he was afraid he'd start believing those lies.

#29 (Anger): Falkner could feel his blood beginning to boil as he watched Morty – his boyfriend – kissing his ex-boyfriend Eusine; an underlying feeling of hurt and betrayal ran through him and left bitter taste in his mouth for being so foolish to believe Morty, to trust him when he said he was over Eusine and that Falkner was the only person he wanted to be with, to believe his lies!

#30 (Reality): When reality sunk in, Morty realized there were a lot of problems with his relationship with Falkner, the ongoing feud between their clans, Eusine's attempts to win Morty back, Whitney's jealousy; at night Morty just liked to forget their many problems, hold Falkner in his arms underneath the stars, and pretend the world was alright with them being together.

#31 (Seeking): At first, Falkner was skeptical about the idea of soul mates and how the two souls spent their lives seeking out each other and weren't complete until their other half was found; after meeting Morty, Falkner realized that he felt a sense of wholeness that made him realize he was only half complete before finding Morty.

#32 (Analyze): "What's there to analyze," Falkner shouted as Morty tried to apologize for kissing Eusine, "the fact that you cheated on me or the fact that I was foolish enough to believe you wouldn't because the situation seems pretty clear to me, and as much as I want to give up on this, I can't because my heart refuses to let you go; damn it Morty, I still love you!"

#33 (Equivalence): "There always has to be a balance in the world," Morty commented idly as he and Falkner watched the stars on a warm night after yet another fruitless meeting with their elders, "and one day we'll be able to create a sense of balance between our clans and set our worlds right; one day we will have peace, just as the Legendaries intended."

#34 (Arbitrary): There was rhyme and reason to everything Falkner did, whether it was his methods for training his Pokémon or how he dealt with trainers; Morty was the opposite and frequently did things on a whim – just because he was able to – and started dragging Falkner along for his spontaneously thought up plans because the younger boy needed more fun in his life.

#35 (Oranges): Falkner gasped and dropped the basket of Oran berries he was holding when he felt a strong pair of arms wrap around him from behind and a voice whispering "boo" in his ear; he turned around in the stranger's arms to see Morty grinning at him and rolled his eyes, telling the blond that he just wasted the Oran berries he'd been picking.

#36 (Deliberate): There was something about the way Falkner started smiling with a hint of mischief dancing in his eyes whenever Morty's headband was stolen by one of Falkner's birds that he swore it was done on purpose by the seemingly innocent gym leader; Morty couldn't say he minded though when Falkner started running his hands through his loose hair, even if he was convinced his boyfriend was secretly much more devious than he thought.

#37 (Artistic): Falkner was left-brained and logical, preferring the concrete to the abstract, and very rarely showed his artistic side – although he claimed that he didn't have an artistic side to begin with; Morty would disagree with that statement though because the way Falkner danced with his swords was nothing short of a form of art.

#38 (Professional): "M-Morty, please, it's not professional…" Falkner gasped out as Morty began sucking on the delicate flesh of his collarbone and his fingers tightened in Morty's shirt as he bit back a moan; despite Falkner's requests to remain professional in appearance during the conference of gym leaders, Morty couldn't help but steal Falkner away for a quick kiss that quickly got carried away.

#39 (Inept): It didn't take much to realize that Falkner was socially inept and didn't understand people that well since he'd grown up largely by himself; the first time Falkner and Morty went out on a date, Falkner had no clue what to do, but he knew enough to know that he was definitely attracted to the strange blond who asked him out and he wanted to see him again.

#40 (Spartan): The living quarters above Falkner's gym were extremely well-kept and clean to the point of immaculate whereas Morty wouldn't be surprised if he found something living in his because of all the clutter; Falkner often had to restrain himself from trying to fix up Morty's room and Morty had to remember not to live things lying around whenever he visited Falkner, but both of them were willing to be a little more lenient with how they lived because of how opposite they were and the necessity of a compromise.

#41 (Teeth): Falkner blushed darkly as he pulled his haori over his neck to hide the marks on the skin during his visit to Sprout Tower to see his elders; he was going to kill Morty the next time he saw him for the hickeys scattered along the skin, and damn it, did he really have to use his teeth?

#42 (Shopping): Falkner's idea of shopping was going to the market for food and he consistently turned down Whitney's offers to take him shopping at the department store in Goldenrod City, but one time when he was out with Morty, the older boy took him to the infamous department store he'd been avoiding for as long as he could remember Whitney asking; the visit was surprisingly less painful than he imagined since there was practical things there to buy for Pokémon, although he did come home with a Pokédoll from Morty that he couldn't talk the other out of buying for him.

#43 (Tail): "Would you please tell your Haunter that my Pidgeotto's tail feathers are not for plucking out?" Falkner asked Morty in a barely restrained voice, to which Morty offered him a sheepish look and told him that it was just Haunter's way of playing with Pidgeotto; the annoyed glare Morty received after that was enough for him to agree to talk to Haunter about why it wasn't okay to pull out a bird's feathers.

#44 (Choice): "Is he really your choice?" Eusine asked, half curiously, after Morty told him that they couldn't be together anymore because his heart belonged to someone else now; Morty closed his eyes to think – Falkner's face and the memories of being together popping into his mind – and he replied in an resolute tone that Falkner was the only person he wanted to be with.

#45 (Golden): Falkner smiled as he walked through the Bellchime Trail with Morty for a picnic, their fingers laced together as the golden leaves fell around them; the blue haired boy's eyes shut as Morty's lips captured his for a kiss and their picnic basket lay forgotten as they both lost themselves in the kiss.

#46 (Scarf): Falkner had to admit he had just as much of an obsession with Morty's scarf as his birds, who usually pecked at his scarf and tried to steal it, did; whenever he was with Morty, his fingers would gravitate toward the other's scarf to play with the fringe or even take it from Morty if he was cold enough.

#47(Outfoxed): Morty liked to consider himself extremely sly because he dealt with ghosts and their mischief and occasionally pulled pranks on anyone he found deserving of a little mischief; it came as a surprise when Falkner, straight-laced and logical Falkner, turned one of his pranks right back on him and outfoxed the master of mischief.

#48 (Bitter): Swallowing one's pride often left a bitter taste in one's mouth – a fact Morty can attest to – because when Falkner caught him kissing Eusine, he knew he'd have to apologize for the incident and find a way to make it up to Falkner by any means necessary; swallowing his pride was nothing compared to seeing the hurt and betrayed look on the younger boy's face.

#49 (Together): Whitney leaned in close as she whispered surreptitiously to her friends that Morty and Falkner were going to share a room together for the next meeting of the Johto gym leaders; when asked about it, Falkner could only blush and stammer while Morty told them that it was more convenient than sneaking into someone else's room to visit his boyfriend.

#50 (Cling): Falkner wasn't usually the clingy type – growing up with monks who wanted him to detach himself from the world made him independent and reserved – but Morty was usually affectionate and cuddled with Falkner whenever possible; it didn't take much for Falkner's resolve to break down when he was settled against Morty's with the other's arms wrapped around him.


I swear, I don't think I can get through a set without thinking of something to write as a footnote. The idea of Morty as an archer (#4 Blade) came to me from watching a lot of xxxHOLiC and my brother's frequent conversations with me about Bleach. If I could draw, I'd definitely attempt drawing those two as Shinigami.

I'm thinking my theme this time around was SacredHonorshipping, which I may or may not write a chapter story about. Don't expect that to be up any time quickly though. I'll be working on a lot of other things before that, and quite frankly, I'm awful at chapter stories. If it's not fully written before I start posting, it'll never get finished. I have yet to complete a single chapter story so…yeah. It's not my strongest point. I have a problem with completing things. "Wishes" should be coming out soon though. I've got a sheet of loose leaf with all my ideas written on it. My room's clean now so I'm not entirely sure where it went off to. Well, actually I just found it. It was hiding in the frame of my bed.

Okay, my last set of review replies. Oh, and once more, I'm really, really, really sorry about how long this took to get done. I got so caught up with things going on in my life that I completely neglected my writing.

Ruu: Awe, thanks :) I'm glad you liked my explanation of the Legendaries, although I tried to keep it short for the sake of space. If you decide to write a set of Honorshipping sentences, I'd love to see them! The more Honorshipping there is out there, the better.

fivespice93: I know the feeling. I got so busy that it took forever for me to finally finish this and put it up. I'm afraid I didn't really put much in about their family/religion situation this time around; it was mostly SacredHonorshipping and how opposites attract. Thanks for all the reviews; I always loved seeing what you had to write about the sets.

xPhineasx: Awe, thanks for reviewing all the chapters! It was really sweet of you to submit a review for each of them.

Shizuku Tsukishima749: Yeah, I'm afraid that guy was an idiot, but it's actually better that I didn't go out with him after all. Although I must admit seeing him slapped silly would have been nice…:3 Thank you so much for all your sweet reviews! Expect to see "Wishes" sometime in the future! Hopefully soon now that I'm back into writing again and I'm not working as many shifts!

NamikazeH4: Yeah, I'm afraid this is it. :( I'm going to miss doing these sets. They were a lot of fun and I hope you liked reading them as much as I liked writing them.

Neo Lady Sakura: Yeah, I can't believe that I'll be going off to college instead of returning to my old school. It's an odd feeling. Hopefully you liked this set. Seeing your review made me smile, so I hope this set makes you smile again.

Well, it seems this is it. I don't have any more lists, so it looks like this is finally over. Thank you all for sticking with me and I hope you guys liked this! Expect to see more from me soon! If anyone's an Originshipper, I've got a multi-chapter story in the works for them. It may be the first multi-chapter fic I'll finish (assuming I do finish xD) Oh, and I'll definitely be writing Wishes for you guys as soon as I can. :)
