>>43336921Keep in mind that a lot of Spark's details are coming from the Shadow event story posts. I've had this ship for a while, but it just got more anchored after reading that.
> Both Spark and Guzma are 'mama/papa bear types', both of them rushing to protect their people (and in Spark's case, eggs) w/o putting much thought into it> Spark's implied to come from a rough background, Willow stating Spark using his instincts to get out of bad situations. He'd probably be one of the first people to *really* listen to Guzma.> We know Guzma came from a troubled home and wants to show his team that nobodies can be somebodies. It seems like something Spark would adore.> The Spark Guzma hooks up with is likely the ex-Skull Guzma, who's going through a redemption process with him and his boys. Spark emphasizes being on "the good side" of things, makes Guzma his most beloved bro.> I like to imagine Spark and Guzma swapping bling for the day and seeing if anyone noticesI tend to picture Spark as a little more capable than most people, I think Crouching moron, hidden badass. (I'm not even on Instinct.)
I tend to think of these pairings outside of a top vs bottom dynamic because I appreciate balanced romances instead of the typical yaoi tropes. I also love shipping team leaders in Pokemon and exploring them dealing with their stresses together that come with the power and responsibility they wield.
