Writing advice from my uni teachers:
If your dialog feels flat, rewrite the scene pretending the characters cannot at any cost say exactly what they mean. No one says “I’m mad” but they can say it in 100 other ways.
Wrote a chapter but you dislike it? Rewrite it again from memory. That way you’re only remembering the main parts and can fill in extra details. My teacher who was a playwright literally writes every single script twice because of this.
Don’t overuse metaphors, or they lose their potency. Limit yourself.
Before you write your novel, write a page of anything from your characters POV so you can get their voice right. Do this for every main character introduced.

I wanna infodump about my Warden Kieran AU!
Ok so, Kieran has amnesia, it's basic knowledge when it comes to this AU. But I decided he would have it not just for angst reasons but for other reasons too!
What I want to focus on is how Kieran views himself that is contradicted by a pokemon he has!
So basically, the first memories that will come back are the most recent, the ones during the Indigo disk, but not before Area Zero. Kieran would then start believing that he was a bad person where he was before Hisui, but at the point this would start happening he would have a Togepi, Egg:](that's her name).
And Egg is a very obvious contradiction, and may come a a comfort to him, as said by Laventon/the Pokedex she it comes to the Evo line!-
Togepi: This ovate is frequently mistaken for a moving egg she encountered out in the fields or in the mountains, it's guileless smile soothes the soul
Togetic: No records exist of Togetic being seen in the wilds. Rumors abound that it evolves under the loving care of a trusted human companion, upon whom the Pokémon then bestows great joy.
Togekiss: Scant few have ever sighted this Pokémon. After studying what literature remains, I am certain Togekiss will reveal itself when peace reigns in the land.(Other Pokedex entries mention that they only interact with those of pure heart, or those who respect another's rights and avoid needless strife, which Kieran does)
I've decided to interpret that the Togekiss line will also focus on those who are naturally kind, but need peace of mind, which is what Kieran is going through.
TLDR: Kieran thinks he's a awful person, but he's got a walking egg to tell him that he isn't.

Kieran >:D
His hair was genuinely painful to draw- I literally wasn’t able to copy canon for the life of me so uh, I came up with this…
Also the epilogue side quest is stupidly entertaining with its horrible animations and mediocre storyline. I missed the old Area Zero gang :)
