for the pokemon au, what would be Mk, Macaque, and Wukong's thoughts on a darling who always gets Sylveon?
I remember I think in x and y you could only get Sylveon if you gave your Eevee a lot of love so using that concept where it comes from a trainer being very loving and sweet?
Wukong will hold up his Espeon!! He will ask you to let your Sylveon and his Espeon play. Wukong would also take this as a sign that you devotion and care to your Pokémon is a good reflection on who you are as a person. Someone with a good heart and gentle nature that he'd want to protect.
Macaque will call you a sappy loser while internally being like "Can you imagine? Being a person so full of love to give and shower upon others that your trusted partner evolves because of that love. I love my Umbreon. Did she not evolve into Sylveon because I don't love her enough? But I do. I care for her, I feed her every day and teach her to hunt. Is it because there's something wrong with me?" as he has a blank expression externally. He wants to study you and figure out how in the world you were able to be open enough to gain such a level of trust with your Pokémon.
MK squealing and petting Sylveon all over!! All the kisses for them!! He adores the Eeveelutions, and Sylveon has ribbons and that's just so cool!! Truthfully MK and you would be two peas in a pod, two people full of love to share to those they care about. It's what makes him care about you all the more!
