Summary
It has been a month since the Reindeer Games. Christmas Town was one elf and one reindeer short. For the first time in remembered history, inhabitants of Santa Claus' magic kingdom had decided they would rather take their chances with the outside world. Quietly, stubbornly, the elves returned to their work making toys, trying hard not to think about their former colleague who wanted to become a dentist. It's only been one month, yet they still have the rest of the year to get through, and the tension has already gotten unbearable.
Hermey and Rudolph, accompanied by an eccentric prospector, live a life on the run from the abominable snow monster, snatching moments of rest and respite between long marches. It's not an ideal situation, but even so, it's leagues better than having to suffer through not fitting in. The future is uncertain, but the present has warmth and belonging.
Dedicated to AO3 author 'pinwheelwhirl,' whose story "don't go 'round willy nilly" got me fixated on a dumb stop-motion TV special made sixty years ago and inspired me to channel that obsession into something productive.

Summary
Life: the great miracle and mystery. Humans and Pokémon alike have searched for its meaning, and legends have evolved from the pursuit of it. Still, many people choose to squander this miracle: to many, life is such a commonplace phenomenon that is not wondrous or spectacular, but something mundane, something that will always be there. But life should be a treasured thing, because in the grand scheme of things, it truly is rare, for everything that is born will one day die. Tragically, many only realize how precious a life is after one is taken from them.
Dr. Fuji never forgave himself for letting his daughter perish in a car crash. As Amber's father, he was a failure, but he believed that he could have a do-over, that he could cheat death by creating a clone of her. To fund this, he sold his soul to Team Rocket's agenda for world domination and worked to sacrifice the laws of nature on the altar of human ingenuity. But even Ambertwo could not escape the fate of the original.
But where one's soul left for the way after, another soul arrived. Dr. Fuji has been given an unprecedented third chance at being a father—a father to a creature that is neither human nor Pokémon. Thus goes the odd tale of Jasper Fuji.

Summary
After the events that transpired in Michina, Arceus finds itself in a new timeline, bereft of the rage for humanity that had been fermenting in its ancient heart for two thousand years. Damos never betrayed Arceus' trust, and it was through the actions of a mere child from the present time that the Alpha was shown this significant error. Arceus is not used to the concept of being capable of making errors. If it had been wrong about what happened in Michina, it stands to reason that it had been wrong many times before that as well. So, after some lengthy introspection, the Original One embarks on a journey to explore the world it had created to see if the creation can teach something more to the creator.
Then Arceus immediately runs into Ash Ketchum, learns that this one human kid has been at the center of several near-world-ending incidents concerning legendary & mythical Pokemon across four regions, is made privy to the fact that he has died several times already, and is all but forced into joining him for breakfast over at his mom's house. Also, Arceus finds out human food tastes excellent.
Ash is leaving for the Unova region next week, and Arceus wants to join him to mitigate the inevitable chaos.
