Because i'm delving hard into world-building, here's some of my so-far fav moments that might wel be in the upcoming Arcaeus Comic, in no particular order:
Gratuitous hot spring scene. Peach wounded and dirt broke sneaks into a natural spring/onsen at night to soak her bones and try to recover some strength. A late night cleaner notices her, a woman who sees this mountain of a woman and at first is fearful, but each time she works late she notices her more and more. Peach does nothing harmful, and when possible, leaves expensive herbs to repay the use of the facilities. She prefers closing time, to avoid others. The two strike up a distant friendship with little to no words shared, just knowing looks and secretive exchanges of gifts and gratitude. That wonderful moment where the cleaner realises she's not some feral human, or violent thug, despite Peach trying to keep everyone at arms length with that illusion.
Peach Vs her team of pokemon, potentially even humans with her at the time, Possessed by a particularly spiteful Zoroark, she's forced to turn on her beloved partners, Valka included. Val refuses to let the others fight her, threatening them with hellfire, both out of rage that her partner could get so sloppy, but also worried the others aren't as skilled as she is, they might hurt Peach.
Underground fighting pits, a strange and wonderful way for the woman to gain cash in hand for being her true self, and getting some of that anger out of her system.
Peach pushed to behave and dress traditionally, to meet with someone far more important. All the nice clothes and forced makeup wont stop her opening her mouth and saying something so incredibly dense and irritating, but brutally honest. Not bonding to the lords and ladies, but getting on like old friends with guards and staff.
Having her ass handed to her by actual skilled elders and fighters, who have to wrangle this reckless woman who will stop at nothing to do the right thing. Teaching her a number of very important lessons as the story progresses, will the lessons stick? Who knows.
Time spent observing the staff tasked to handle pokemon trainers leave at the Ranch in town, teaching them more modern ways of diagnosis, care, and general observation. striking fear into a young rancher who has an unruly pokemon problem. She jumps in the pen and sorts it out with her usual brutish approach, followed by an unusual calm assertive nature.
A parting scene with a beautiful young woman who's crushing hard on our Professor , offering her medicine or food for the dangerous trip ahead. Peach is so incredibly dense, she doesn't even notice it, thanks her, and leaves a fair few lonely hearts behind without second thought, mainly because there was never a first thought in her thick skull.
Headbutting an ursaring.
Continuously bringing it back to Peach's speciality, she's first and foremost a grass expert, all the hard punches and nifty dodges will not come close to her love for them, and it will show at every possible moment. A calmness to her, that comes back and saves others, maybe even saves her.
Thanks for listening to my TED talk. I will now continue to make this damn comic and try to stop vibrating with excitement. I cant wait to give you guys this junk, I feel like we've come to love this pink professor, I never expected her to gain the traction she has. I can finally, after all this time, show you her true self, while exploring this old world story.
