Topic revive! ^_^ I'm such a horrible thread owner ;_;.
But welcome PurpleMew and C.Gholy! =D It's always good to have more posters here! (And I should go edit the first post now...)
Anyway, I shall answer a topic now... And get to the other ones when I have more time >>;
How would Jun and Shinji's relationship be viewed by others?
I think Ash would be the most surprised/upset by their relationship. I mean, he already doesn't seem to like that Barry still not used to that name idolizes Paul, and well, we all know how he feels about Paul. He would probably be the most jealous.
Oh rofl, I can see Dawn being a crazy fangirl, like "KYAHH!~ *-* So amazing!" Or maybe that's only in my mind where Dawn would be a yaoifangirl. Realistically, she might be worried about how Paul would treat Barry, but still support him.
Family-wise, I think Reggie would probably approve, as long as Paul was happy. Hell, I'm sure he would just be glad that someone actually likes Paul, and his brother returns the feelings. Ahh, it's so cute just thinking about a brotherly bond they share and this is not an Evashipping discussion so I'm going to shut up now >>;. I mean, I think it would be cute, Reggie's approval of Paul and Barry's relationship.
I think Palmer might be a little put-off at first (or jealous that his son has another idol?), but if Paul proved himself to be a Trainer worthy of respect and his son's affection... Actually I dunno. Palmer seems a bit possessive and crazy so I don't really know how he would receive it in the end, even if Paul does defeat him in battle or something.
I'm sure Paul would regret ever getting involved in it, lol.
Also, Hotsu, you're so awesome for posting amazing fanart (which I fail at finding) and always thinking up interesting topics and keeping the discussion going! Here, haz an epic Coldcoffee-cookie! =D
