dmxratedBrian has already agreed to fund just May's chapter for the time being. Will be giving that to Michael on Monday, when he said he should be finished working for someone else.
Asked Brian yesterday why he's agreed to fund something he would like not to read, but he said he actually would (presumably after I took some time to censor the explicit parts as per FanFiction's rating policy; I am planning to create an AO3 account specifically to re-host them uncensored). Glad to hear that, but for now, I have told him that it should actually wait until his next visit.
To start with, similar to how he made a point of showing me Inception before we watched a certain episode of Rick & Morty, I would prefer to actually start by buying new copies of the player's guides for Pokemon Crystal, Emerald, and Diamond/Pearl, just to let him catch up somewhat with the franchise first. That is exactly why I bought myself a copy of Pokemon Sapphire itself back in 2006, after attempting to read some fanfiction and failing to understand what's what. Right now, though, I've already re-bought Puella Magi Oriko Magica for him, which should already fill his plate back up enough, since I had asked him in particular to write me something, and Mom and I came to agree that it's already too close to Christmas to bother buying anything online. (She once bought something under priority shipping, and it actually took until two weeks after Christmas to arrive.)
That said, once he actually gets around to reading the guides, I think I might also make a point of setting up The Legend of Thunder! and the third Advanced Generation episode to watch together, just to get an actually feel for Jimmy, May, and certain related characters. I might also consider buying a copy each of Crystal and Emerald themselves to bundle w/ the Mother trilogy before I give that to him next year. (Will be sure to replace the batteries when I receive them first.)
