He's seen you quell the frenzies of the noble Pokémon across Hisui, he's seen you step up to every challenge that you've needed to face. But how will he react when he has to stand by and watch you take on your most dangerous challenge yet? **Spoiler warning!** - this story contains major spoilers for the final battle of the main story (before the post game arc) in Pokémon Legends Arceus! This story came about from me thinking how Adaman and the others basically have to stand and watch as you battle the origin forme of Dialga or Palkia at the end of the main story, and got me thinking about how they'd react seeing it all take place. Or, more specifically, how Adaman would react if he'd secretly had feelings for you the whole time and is now having to watch you risk your life to save the region. This is written from the perspective of a female protagonist battling Palkia (she/her pronouns and Rei briefly featuring as the Survey Corps teammate) because I'm going from my experience of the game (with some artistic licence of course!)😊 I know this is two Adaman stories in a row but I absolutely love him - I got hit with a wave of inspiration for this so just had to share! I've got some other stories for various other characters that I wrote a while back that I'm planning to share at some point too but I thought why not share another one featuring this beautiful man first. I hope you enjoy!
