☛ Riddle Rosehearts

It happens in the library while you're picking out books. A fellow student notices you struggling with a stack and offers to help, adding with a friendly smile, "If you're single, maybe I could treat you later?" Riddle, who had gone ahead to find you both a table, returns just in time to hear the question. His face flushes a deep red, not from embarrassment, but from tightly restrained anger. “Absolutely not. (name) is not single,” he says sternly, stepping between you and the other student like a barrier. “And even if they were, this is an academic setting, not a place for flirtation. Kindly take your leave.” His voice is stern and commanding, and the student stammers an apology before leaving.

"Thank you, Riddle," you said softly. He huffed, adjusting his blazer as he cast his gaze to the side. "It's improper for someone to make such bold advances. Honestly..."

But later, under the table, his hand holds yours. In a low murmur, he added, "You don't need to entertain anyone else. You already have me."

☛ Leona Kingscholar

You’re lounging on a bench in the school's courtyard after class when someone from another dorm approaches, leaning a little too close as they ask, “So… are you single?” Before you can even blink, there’s a warm body behind you, and an arm lazily drapes across your shoulders. Leona’s voice is low, amused. “You’ve got some nerve asking that when I’m right here.” The student freezes as Leona lifts his head, his green eyes gleaming with territorial intent. “They’re already taken. Try again in your next life, herbivore.”

Once the student retreats, Leona settles back with a smirk, his grip on you not loosening. “Tch. Can’t leave you alone for five minutes without someone trying their luck.” He doesn’t sound jealous, just smugly possessive. “Guess I gotta remind them who you belong to, huh?”

☛ Azul Ashengrotto

The question is asked during an event at the Lounge, you're helping Azul serve when a charming student casually asks, “you're single, right?” Azul, who was polishing his glasses just a few steps away, goes perfectly still. He turns slowly, smile tight and calculated. “Ah… I see someone’s forgotten to do their research.” He walks over, places a hand on your lower back, and smiles coldly at the culprit. “(name) is already in a relationship. With me. I trust that clears things up?”

The student stammers and quickly leaves, and Azul’s hand lingers a second longer than necessary before he withdraws it. “Some people truly lack awareness,” he sighs. “Don’t worry, my pearl. I’ll make sure no one dares overstep again… especially not in my territory.”

☛ Jamil Viper

It happens while you're helping Jamil gather snacks in the school store. Another student, seeing you alone for a moment, saunters over and says, “Hey, if you're free later, maybe we could hang out? You single?” You blink in surprise, but before you can speak, Jamil’s voice cuts through the air like a whip. “No. They’re not.” He appears behind you with a calm expression that doesn’t quite reach his eyes. “(name) is already with someone. Me.” His smile is polite, but there’s a certain cold to his tone that makes the other student retreat without further word.

Once you're alone, Jamil sighs, rubbing the back of his neck. “Figures something like this would happen the one time I wasn’t glued to your side.” He isn’t angry, but there's a quiet protectiveness in the way his fingers briefly held yours. “Next time… just wait for me, yeah?”

☛ Vil Schoenheit

During a photo shoot setup for an event magazine, you're preparing snacks and drinks for Vil, when one of the photography assistants leans over and says, “You’re gorgeous. Tell me you’re single?” You’re caught off guard, but before you can respond, Vil’s voice rings out from behind the camera. “They most certainly are not.” He strides over in full model confidence, standing beside you with a hand elegantly placed on your shoulder. “(name) is with me. Surely you could see that? Or do you need a pair of beauty-enhancing glasses as well?”

The assistant laughs awkwardly and scurries off. Vil hums, brushing an imaginary speck from your collar. “Honestly… people can be so blind. But don’t worry, darling,” he whispers, lips close to your ear, “I won’t let anyone think for even a second that you're available.”

☛ Idia Shroud

You’re in the middle of a co-op dungeon raid with Idia, your avatars slashing through mobs side by side. The party is just the two of you, until a random player joins the open slot. Almost immediately, they tag your name and laugh flirtatiously over open mic, “Hey, uh, sorry to ask mid-fight, but are you single?”

There’s a beat of stunned silence. Your fingers falter over the keys, and you barely dodge a fire trap. Then a second mic activates.

“NO. They’re not. They’re dating ME.” Idia’s voice crackles through the headset with aggressiveness that startles even you. “So maybe don’t shoot your shot during a boss raid? Try not being a burden, idiot.” His anxious mumble is gone, replaced with fiery anger that leaves the other player sputtering in awkward retreat. After the game ends, Idia returns to his usual, rapid pace. “Ughhh I totally blew my cool b-but seriously, what kinda rando tries to flirt during a raid?! You’re mine… like, exclusive loot. Legendary-tier. No trade-ins.”

☛ Malleus Draconia

While walking through the gardens near Ramshackle, a brave but clueless student approaches you with a bouquet in hand and asks earnestly, “Are you single? I’d like to get to know you.”

The wind stills. Small green lights flicker around you. Before you can reply, Malleus appear beside you, his expression unreadable. “That will not be necessary,” he says, voice calm but thunderous. “(name) is already bound to me. I suggest you refrain from such disrespect in the future.” The student pales and flees without another word.

Malleus then turns to you, his expression softening. “Humans can be so forward these days. I do not mind the occasional admirer… but only if you continue to look solely at me.” He offers you a faint, almost wistful smile as he gently takes your hand. “You are mine, and I shall not share you.”

the twst pantheon au

I’ve been cooking with this one for a long ass time 🤩

A pantheon refers to “a collective of gods for a particular religion or group” or “a group that is respected, famous, or important”. In this case, the Pantheon AU is a modern day alternate universe in which all of the Twst characters are deities. They are not tied to a certain religion. Rather, they exist as forces of nature and each have dominion over + powers related to whatever concepts they govern.

The gods used to be well known and revered back in ancient times, but they’ve been whittled down to obscurity as the eons pass by. And the gods, well… let’s say that they got caught up in some trouble in their down time, leading to many of them being cast out of the Pantheon. These so-called “Fallen” gods are banished to the mortal realm and forced to walk among humans. However, because they’ve been stripped of most of their power, the Fallen are forced to take up smaller forms in order to conserve what little power they have left… which means we get cute animal forms :))

So the idea is that you/the reader/Yuu are a normal human being going about their day and they happen to run into a god in their animal form. Depending on the form, it could be a wild animal OR (the funnier option, in my opinion) the encounter could be in one of those animal cafés. Whatever the case may be, you end up adopting, fostering, or giving the animal shelter in your home.

The next day, you wake up to find a strange man in robes standing in your home. He so arrogantly informs you that you are now one of his “followers” and demands that you assist him in reclaiming their lost godhood, thereby restoring him to his rightful place in the Pantheon.

As it turns out, gods gain power by gathering followers (not actual people who worship them but rather just people who selflessly love them or believe in and follow their philosophies or the importance of what they govern). Following is quantified by a mystical coin called Faith; the goal is for the Fallen to gather enough Faith to literally “buy” their way back into the Pantheon. Only problem is, it’s hard for gods to gain followers or even influence humans in their weakened state, hence why they’re teaming up with the first human to offer them Faith. (Since adopting/fostering is considered an act of selfless love, it granted the god enough strength to assume a more humanoid form.)

Gods don’t “die” but rather they can “fade”. Think of it like how a star burns for a long time, but they eventually burn through everything they have and cannot go on. Gods can fade one of two ways: 1) their time comes, or 2) there is so little Faith in what they rule over that they cannot sustain their existence anymore!

Depending on what the god rules over, this would shape the direction their follower (ie you/Yuu) would take to help them. For example, the god of love would benefit from having love spread. I also like to imagine that the non-Fallen gods sometimes come down to mock the Fallen or pose as obstacles since the non-Fallen could theoretically accumulate more power for themselves if there are fewer gods in the Pantheon.

And then!! Maybe at the very end, when the god has collected enough Faith, they’re faced with the daunting decision of getting the thing they started off wanting versus staying on the mortal plane with their human friend (or even lover, if you wanna go the god-human forbidden romance angle), who will entirely forget about them once they ascend. It’d sort of be like the end of Hercules but with an extra little sprinkle of angst 😇

The gods are grouped into Elder, Major, and Minor categories. Elder Gods are the oldest and are tasked with overseeing the younger gods and the governance of humanity itself. Major Gods are those who have accumulated a significant amount of influence for themselves over the years. Minor Gods are young gods and are still in training, humans that ascended to godhood, or lesser gods.

And now, the members of the Pantheon!! I’ve included some headcanons I have for them, but consider this more of a brief overview and not all the lore.

Elder Gods

Crowley — God of stories

Considered to be the ultimate authority and speaker for the Pantheon.

Decides which gods are worthy of walking in the Pantheon. Also determines what the price to return is for the Fallen.

(… Yes, Faith is literally in coins and you have to “buy” your way back in because Crowley, even as an actual GOD, is a greedy ass that accepts bribe money ✨)

Despite his high ranking, he has a whimsical and flippant manner about him, not really acting like an omnipotent being.

It is said he has a number of crow and raven companions that serve as messengers and his eyes/ears. They bring the stories they see and hear back to him.

Keys, mirrors, and coffins are common motifs for him and his shrines; they say that his mirrors are gates to new worlds and that the coffins he unlocks with his skeleton keys give birth to new life/characters to inhabit those worlds.

Be kind to ravens and crows; you never know when that visiting bird is actually Crowley in disguise, traveling the mortal world in search of something new to amuse himself with.

Obviously has a raven/crow form.

Crewel — God of medicine and healing

Looks after the gods and their standing; that kindness, like medicine, can be both a panacea and a poison. Punishes the gods, should they step out of line.

Favors dogs, particularly well-trained ones. His shrines depict Dalmatians guarding the entrances, but the dogs are not seen in the interiors, which are usually caked with incense smoke.

Healers and caretakers look to him for guidance. It used to be common for them to have a singular handkerchief in black and white animal print (a good luck charm) on their persons (or wearing something of those colors/patterns) when treating the sick or injured.

He is skilled at animal taming; it is said that he could get even a great beast to heel at his command.

His animal form is a Dalmatian.

Trein — God of history

Tasked with keeping records for the gods and humans alike. He knows every detail of their existence.

Favors felines. It’s said that, in his youth, he spirited away a cat, which now serves as his emissary.

His wife, the minor goddess of the ashes, faded due to a lack of Faith. Because of this, he perpetually worries for the younger gods meeting the same fate.

Glass is a material that recurs in his shrines and offerings; this is because Trein considers time fragile like glass.

His animal form is a long haired cat.

Vargas — God of champions and heroes

There are many stories of him training humans and demigods, who would later go on to perform impressive acts.

Also trains up-and-coming gods, preparing them to assume their duties.

He is said to have a number of feats under his belt as well, such as slaying a great beast and carrying the world on his back.

Animal pelts and deer antlers are favored offerings. Even better if you hunted and prepared them yourself.

His animal form is a buck.

Sam — God of roads/travel and prophecy

Magically produces anything that may be needed from his hat.

Able to vanish and reappear anywhere else. Never stays in one place for too long.

Seemingly all-knowing. He is said to commune with the shadows for this supernatural level of knowledge. Using his deck of enchanted cards, he can also see into the past, present, and future.

Sam allows for passage between the Pantheon and the mortal plane. He calls the route between them his “backdoor shortcut”.

Takes on a shadow form rather than an animal form.

Lilia — Ex-god of war and protection, god of family and sacrifice

Once a god wielding a frightening cleaver and dripping in blood; his presence on the battlefield marked the enemy’s doom—but if he was on your side, then be is your savior.

He ceded his title and mellowed out after he was tasked with mentoring various younger gods. Still retains a bit of his war god past, as he is willing to go to great lengths aid his charges—even at the cost of his own safety.

Spouses-to-be and expecting mothers pray to Lilia for happy marriages and safe childbirth.

Acorns are left at his shrines; by wishing Lilia a long, healthy life, he returns the favor and grants you the same.

Bats serve has his messengers. If you see one passing the moon, it’s good luck. Likewise, his animal form is a bat.

Major Gods

Riddle — God of law and order

Rules, laws, control—all of these things are under his dominion. He rewards those who obey and punishes those who disobey.

In the days of old, a statue of Riddle would adorn the courtrooms, indicating that trials would be conducted under his scrutiny.

Those seeking his favor or welcoming his spirit into their home would cultivate red and white roses, prepare dried strawberries, and/or drink black tea at designated dates and times.

Displeased with the disorder and unlawfulness of the human world; wishes to get it under control.

Fallen for going on a wrathful rampage; he injured many gods and tore apart the Pantheon in the process.

His animal form is a (smaller than average) hedgehog.

Leona — God of wisdom and destruction

The patron god of scholars. Ironically, intellectuals debate about Leona’s form, finding it difficult to believe that a divine scholar would have the physique of what is that of a pro-athlete.

He represents not only the acquisition of new information and its application, but also the ruin that can be brought about by this knowledge.

He has become bored with the world—he already has all knowledge at his fingertips, so what else is there to learn? Because of that, he is now lazy.

There was an incident in which he, a young god at the time, sanded a vast archive of human knowledge. This earned him ire from the Elder Gods and cast his reputation in a bad light.

Fallen for attempted deicide (of Malleus).

His animal form is a cat. Makes sense; there’s usually golden lion statues in his shrines. Cures meats are a common offering.

Azul — God of commerce and contracts

Anything related to business, money, and deals are under him. Because of this, both swindlers and honest merchants revere Azul and usually have a small anemone plant or flower set up in shop to attract good business.

It was common for people to ask Azul to fulfill their wishes, at the cost of something valuable to themselves. His golden contracts are said to be impossible to break—though there are stories of heroes finding loopholes and triumphing over him.

Those who cross him are said to be dragged into the depths and choked by his tentacles.

Fallen for his impossible greed; he forewent consent to enter an agreement with him and stole humans’ skills and abilities en masse in a big to become the ultimate life form.

His animal form is an octopus, a form he is extremely insecure about. Tends to take on the appearance of a fish with fluttery fins instead.

Kalim — God of wealth, hospitality, and celebration

He is considered a charitable and friendly god, welcoming even humans to gatherings in his domain, serving them nectar and ambrosia. If you wish for wealth or to impress a guest, you are expected to be as kind of a host has he is.

His shrines were opulent, dripping with jewels, gold, and dried coconut flesh + coconut water offered up in his name.

He is usually depicted as the sun amid other stars or in parades/amid crowds of servants (which are primarily lesser gods). Never alone, always with people.

According to the stories, he is easy to trick and has been stolen from multiple times—yet he harbors no ill will towards thieves.

His animal form is a monkey—a nimble little moodmaker—but he’s capable of turning into others too. A tiger, an elephant, and a parrot, just to name a few. You can say he’s a real “party animal”.

Vil — God of beauty (aesthetics) and poison

Depicted as a mature and sexy beauty, but also sometimes as a robed hag. He is known for his beauty as much as he is known for his envy.

Worshipped in the days of old by women who did not wish for their youth to fade, although Vil was typically described as a being without the concept of the gender binary.

Fallen for an attempt to poison a fellow god (Neige) and steal their beauty to bolster his own.

His animal form is a (male) peacock. If you pluck off on of his feathers, he may curse you—but get away safely, and you can brew a beauty elixir.

Idia — God of innovation and technology

A god that tinkers away and produces new inventions in his lair. He is said to have inspired many famous human inventions or inventors, sparking industrial and technological revolutions the world over.

Has grown increasingly withdrawn, deeming that his inventions are out there doing a god’s work for him; is there a need for him to be involved?

He is said to enjoy games; it is common to find gameboards and game pieces in his shrines. In stories, Idia would use his own to illustrate locations and the heroes in those territories.

His shrines are often gloomy—dimly lit, and filled with bones (representative of the past) and candles (representative of the future, paved by new inventions).

Fallen for an attempt to destroy the current universe and to rewrite it in his own image.

His animal form is a dog, which he laments because be prefers cats.

Malleus — God of stasis and storms (ie nature)

Considered to be an unstoppable force of nature; his moods affect the weather, so people prayed to him for favorable conditions.

Known as one of the most powerful gods to have ever existed. He knows little of humans and their ways, having lived almost entirely in the Pantheon.

Fallen for forsaking the concept of time and attempting to keep the world, humans, and the gods themselves, from facing the future ever again. With his thorn cradles, he sought to force all asleep and kept content in their dreams.

His animal form is a lizard, though he is usually depicted as a fire breathing dragon in stories.

Rollo — God of obsession and judgment

Another important figure often depicted in courtrooms. While Riddle oversees rules and laws, Rollo is the one closely tied to fair judgment and rulings.

The stories depict him as a god so blindly consumed by pursuit of his purpose that he lost sight of all else.

Fallen for an attempt to rid the universe of gods altogether, freeing humans from them. Harbors a particularly strong resentment for the God of Stasis and Storms.

Should a fire occur, it is viewed as Rollo’s wrath or punishing an unjust world. There are stories of guilty criminals who successfully evade the eyes of the law but mysteriously die in house fires.

Often depicted in stained glass windows.

His favored offerings are bread, grapes, and red lilies. The correct way to give them is to toss the offerings into a fire and letting them burn to ashes.

He finds music produced by bells pleasing. Those who run shrines in his name may perform a ceremonial dance using a hand bell.

His animal form is a goat.

Skully — God of holidays and cheer

He arose from the darkness when humans celebrated their first holiday. Though he represents all holidays, his favorite is Halloween. This is why you will find jack ‘o lanterns and candy scattered at his shrines. His followers are especially active during the autumn season.

Fallen for a strange decree that he should dictate how every holiday is celebrated; this cut into other gods’ domains and caused in-fighting among humans.

A god that stole many hearts. He greets humans with a kiss on the back of the hand; these kisses would impart temporary charms.

Oddly does not have an animal form. Assumes a pumpkin form instead.

Fellow — God of vagrants and freedom

A smooth, fast talking god with little respect for restraint. Not very bright but makes up for it in showmanship. He travels wherever he wants whenever he wants and does whatever he wants, easily blending in with mortals.

If you’ve lost a few coins from your wallet, assume Fellow swiped it and considers it a charitable donation.

Fallen for dealing with an evil spirit; he intended to trade human lives to gain more divine power.

Gidel is a titleless Fledgling God that he has taken under his wing. While he does not speak, he is very expressive.

His animal form is a fox.

Minor Gods

Trey — God of temperance and the hearth

Trey encompasses everything that makes the home warm and comfortable: meals, cozy blankets, kind company, etc.

He’s also seen as a caretaker among the gods, especially to Riddle. It’s said he is able to temper his even the most extreme of emotions.

A god that finds himself in the middle of conflicts and having to resolve them; he’d rather be left untroubled by such things.

Baked goods and flowers (specifically violets) are common offerings.

His animal form is a mouse.

Cater — God of theatre and duality

A dramatic god, he lives for performances and attention. Represented by the two comedy masks; he has inspired many famous playwrights.

Typically happy, but when he “flips” to his sad alter ego/mask, his personality is completely different.

He is capable of making replicas of himself. In one story, he performed a one-man play where he was every single character.

… He’s been really into these new human inventions called the “cell phone” and “social media”, but the concepts have yet to take off in the Pantheon.

His animal form is a rabbit.

Deuce — God of passion and dedication

Once an evil spirit, he has since been reformed and become a (tentative) minor god. He dreams of rising to Major God status someday.

As an evil spirit, he was a chaotic being of wind notorious for challenging the other elements to races. (This would often result in hurricanes and other natural disasters.)

It’s said he was originally born from an alchemist’s cauldron when a spell went awry. Perhaps that is why he finds himself favoring cauldrons. Chickens are his favored animal; there is a story of how he cried over cracked eggs. This has led to a strange collection of items (including cauldrons and chicken statuettes) in his shrines.

He tries many things, but is seldom successful in any of them.

His animal form is a (blue) chicken. He attempted a pink flamingo form but failed.

Ace — God of fortune (luck) and mischief

A troublemaker in the Pantheon. Frequently being chastised or punished for bothering his fellow gods.

He sneaks off to the mortal realm to prank humans. To the Elder Gods’ dismay, Ace sometimes (what was the human phrase for it again??) “shoots his shot” with humans he finds cute. Might go on a date with them once, then disappear entirely from their lives, leaving a trail of broken hearts in his wake.

Preserved cherries and later playing cards are common offerings. Instead of praying, devotees would stay at a shrine and play a card game with something depicting Ace (usually a statue).

His animal form is a flamingo.

Ruggie — God of thieves and the downtrodden

The god for the working class, underserved and marginalized communities, and the common man. They pray to him when they are in need of social change—tearing down a tyrannical king, redistributing the wealth, etc.

While his followers usually don’t have much to give, Ruggie isn’t picky about the gifts he receives. Even hand-me-down items and foragables are accepted at his shrines. Leave a bouquet of dandelions, herbs, used clothes, or a few coins at his altar and he will happily snatch those up.

Closely associated with Leona, often acting as his lackey in various tales.

There’s a story about how he stole the keys to Azul’s enchanted safe and released desire into the world; they say Ruggie has the ability to steal anything from anyone.

His animal form is a raccoon.

Jack — God of strength (both physical strength and strength of character)

Often depicted as a massive wolf—strong yet gentle. He appears before those with noble hearts to warn them of coming danger.

Protects children who get lost in the woods. He will fend off the danger and then carry the children to safety in his massive maw.

Warriors donned wolf pelts or the image of a wolf on armor or accessories. This would supposedly grant them strength on the battlefield.

Bottles of pear preserves are commonly left at his shrines.

Jade — God of lies and curiosity

One of the rare gods that frequents the mortal realm, though these excursions are typically excused on account of his identity as the god of curiosity. He returns with strange stories that his fellow gods cannot quite tell are true or not.

In the stories, he is presented as an enabler and instigator. If a mortal finds themselves at a fork in the road, Jade leans into their ear and whispers, influencing them to take the path least treaded.

It’s said that if you catch him speaking a truth, he will grant you a wish. Many mortals have met their doom from believing his web of lies.

Strangely, mushrooms have a tendency to overtake his shrines. You'll find them in the corners and crevices.

Animal form is an eel but if he is very low on energy then he’s a little fish.

Floyd — God of change and chaos

If Jade influences humans by whispering in their ear, then Floyd influences humans by throwing any obstacle imaginable at them. He is the embodiment of anything that can happen at any time.

His following is mainly people who are bored with their lives and wish for something exciting or new to happen.

His followers do not have any particular traditions, as he could react negatively to anything. Rather, the expectation is that you go about your day and not invoke his name for fear of gaining his attention.

If you're one of the foolish few who dare to ask a favor of him, candies of assorted flavors or a new pair of shoes (a luxury, in the days of old) may be a good bet to gain his favor.

Animal form is an eel but if he is very low on energy then he’s a little fish.

Jamil — God of culture and ambition

Companion to Kalim. They often appear as a duo on stories, never straying too far apart from one another.

He represents the mingling of cultures and the sharing of idea and traditions, all the connections and places he can never have for himself. Jamil considers this a great burden, one he cannot be freed from. He also represents those seeking higher goals for themselves.

His shrines are known to be covered in fine tapestries and fabrics. Incense is burned, imparting the insides with a smokey, spicy smell.

Common offerings are bottles of hair oil and ornaments. These are to care for his hair, which is said to be able to transform into living snakes, each capable of speaking in a different ancient language.

Fallen for an attempt to overthrow Kalim and claim his position (via inciting a coup).

His animal form is a snake. Although he is a bright red, he’s not venomous.

Rook — God of the hunt, the arts, and love

If you’re out in the wild and feel like you’re being watched, it’s likely Rook with his eye on you. He enjoys observing humans and the odd ways they act.

Has heightened senses, able to notice visual details from an impressive distance away.

A lover of the arts; most creatives have made at least one work of art in his honor.

His followers tend to follow his philosophy that everything is beautiful in its own way.

Lovers will ask Rook to bless their relationship; it is said that those shot with his Arrows of Love will forever be bound to the first person they see.

Rook represents not just romantic love, but also platonic love. He does not discriminate; all love is beautiful!

His animal form is a rook (bird).

Epel — God of agriculture and harvest

His favored fruit is the apple. There used to be a festival in which attendees would submit their own apples for judging in his honor; the biggest, reddest, and shiniest would win and the victor would be blessed with a bountiful harvest for that year.

There are many tales of mortals and divine beings alike being deceived by his dainty appearance.

Humans pray to Epel for a good yield from their fields. Apples (at least their peels) are often incorporated into fertilizer, which they return to the earth as an offering to him.

His animal form is a rabbit.

Ortho — God of death and rebirth

Legends say he was originally a mortal that died young while attempting to play the role of a hero. Taking pity on the boy, the gods took his soul and replaced it in the mechanical body (thanks to Idia’s help).

Ortho and his blue flames are said to be the last thing you see before death, for he comes to claim all souls and ferry them to the other side.

In the days of old, it is said that people would become stars after death and watch on from the sky. It is Ortho who brings newborn stars into the sky and places them.

He is said to be close with Idia, the god who granted him his new form.

Appears like a glowing blue flame instead of an animal form; the closest he can achieve is a ghostly apparition of a dog.

Sebek — God of action, lightning, and war

A demigod, much to his dismay. Overeager to prove himself as a result.

Dismisses his mortal father in favor of his divine heritage, but Sebek finds himself visiting anyway. Insists it is out of pity.

Inherited the title of god of war from Lilia. Brags about it (though Lilia warns him to be careful with such a dangerous title). His affinity for lightning is also something he brags about, since it brings him closer to Malleus, who controls storms.

His shrines tend to be built near bodies of water; followers prepare salted salmon from lakes and such for him.

He wields a shield that can guard against anything.

His animal form is a crocodile.

Silver — God of sleep/dreams, peace, and protection

A human that was adopted by Lilia after his parents were felled in war. He went on to become a hero and achieved godhood by bringing a great war to a peaceful resolution.

Inherited Lilia’s old title as god of protection. Should you gain Silver’s favor, he will shield you from the evils of the world.

Animals of all kinds are drawn to Silver and his shrines. Nuts, berries, leaves, and flowers are left at his altar.

He is usually depicted sleeping under a tree. If you see Silver in your dreams, it is a good omen and something nice will happen to you when you wake up.

He wields a sword that can cut through anything.

His animal form is a horse. In works of art, he is sometimes depicted as a silver owl which glides through dreams.

Grim — (Fledgling) God of the lost

Not fully recognized as a god yet.

Has not accumulated enough strength to assume a human form.

Is considered guardian to the lost and directionless, be it those not knowing where they came from or those not knowing where they want to go in the future.

Leave an open tuna can at his altar or in ramshackle buildings, and the contents will have mysteriously vanished the next day. Presumably, Grim has passed by and eaten the offering. (Rocks are also an acceptable offering; these will also vanish, though there is debate on whether Grim favors rocks or if he also eats them.)

Neige — God of innocence and purity/chastity

If Vil is sexy and mature, then Neige is the picture of sweetness and cuteness.

He is seen as a protector and caretaker to children, especially those without parents or guardians. They say if you diligently do your chores, your home will be safe and blessed by Neige.

Also considered the patron god of virgins.

The Seven Dwarves are forest nymphs that hang around him. Each represents an emotion or state of being (uhhh, assume Timmy -> embarrassment, Grum -> angry, Shelpie -> tired??, Hop -> happy, Snick -> surprised, Toby -> confused, Dominic -> confident).

His animal form is a songbird. He can also do a deer.

Cheka — (Fledgling) God of courage and cycles

An inexperienced god; the current God of Courage and Cycles is fading and Cheka is being trained to step up into that role.

Carefree; he has little interest in his duties and would rather play around with the other gods. Sometimes even slips away from his handlers and escapes to the mortal plane to play. Causes many headaches.

Asks many questions about mortals, but nothing which would be relevant to his tasks.

Animal form is a cat, but he can’t really shift well yet.

Chenya — God of riddles and guidance

Chenya helps the lost find their way, be it to a location, loved one, item, or some goal. However, his aid often comes with a heap of cryptic language which you must first decipher.

Has the ability to vanish from sight. It is said that if you hear giggling or feel something brush against your arm or leg, it is Chenya’s blessing.

Loves finding cakes at his shrines, although he tends to steal them right off your plate at celebrations.

Animal form is a cat.

I am very much interested in this. Intriguing! If you guys have time, maybe you would consider answering this 😊 Thank you!!

twst overblot boys survey

Over the years, I’ve noticed trends in behaviors and attitudes between fans of particular Twst characters and I’ve wanted to know if there was any evidence to back up these observations. In other words… Are individuals with certain traits more likely to gravitate to one Twst character (in this case, one of the overblot boys) over the others? And maybe if this survey is successful, I’ll ask the same of the rest of the cast—

And so I thought to collect this data, analyze the results, and share the final report with the public. This will be done with the help of a friend (Mod Jeido from twstgameplay) that was also curious about the topic. The analysis itself will be conducted using JMP, a statistical software.

If you’re interested too, then please fill out the following form and/or share it on socials. (I don’t have a Reddit or Tiktok and I’m not active on Twitter so I’s appreciate it a lot!!) The more responses collected, the stronger the conclusions we can make!

The form will close on July 15th, so please get your responses in before then!

Ik everyones over Azul's club outfit but I cant get over the "My step dad plans to take us out on the yacht this weekend for a jolly good time" vibes it has to it he's so entitled!!!

I’M NOT OVER IT!!!! OTL

This face,,,,, he’s so cute and nerdy. Raised with so much love and spoiled in exceeding amounts so now he feels entitled,,,

Rich nerd who invites you to his birthday and you’re one of the very few who show up and it’s on a yacht on the ocean?!?!?! :O and the school’s biggest bullies popular nuisances (eels) happen to be there, too.

He’s so glad you came because now he can enact his 50-step plan into making you his partner. <3 that’s the best gift you can give to him~ and maybe also a few kisses on the deck under the moonlight, but that can wait… :)

Devotion’s Lullaby

. ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁˖ . ݁ ᶻ 𝗓 𐰁

Malleus Draconia x Reader (established relationship)

Waking up in the morning was always difficult whenever Malleus was involved.

Since his lineage was inherently nocturnal, he just couldn’t help how sluggish he was in the morning. That along with how adorable you looked beside him, it was a given he would be slow to start.

Sunlight peered in through heavy curtains adorning the windows in Malleus’ room. Since neither of you had classes that day, it provided a rare opportunity for the both of you to relax and sleep in together.

Malleus’ head rested above yours, his arms wrapped snuggly around your frame which faced his. His shallow breathing ghosted against your hair, serving as a delicate reminder of his presence.

Due to his subconsciously tight grasp, it proved as a challenge to try and break free to start your day. Every instance you tried to move, it seemed like he pulled you back down, even in sleep.

Finally, after your numerous unintentional disturbances, Malleus’ eyelids fluttered open. He peered down at you, snuggling even closer. His soft lips pressed an array of kisses to your forehead, whispering words in a sleep-strained voice.

“My sweet love…” he spoke, carrying a content smile, “Don’t leave my side this morning. I need you here.”

He punctuated his plea with a serene kiss between your eyebrows. His delighted smile remained, a testament to his happiness from seeing his beloved by his side from the moment he arose from the sleep.

Once you settled back into the plush bed, Malleus’ strong but tender arms pulled you into his chest once more. One hand came to rest in your hair, gently scratching your scalp, while the other remained wrapped around your waist.

“Thank you, my dear.” he whispered, nuzzling desperately against you. “Your willingness to indulge me means more than you’d ever know.”

After another array of adoring kisses pressed against your sweet face, Malleus succumbed to sleep. However, knowing that he had you by his side all the while made it feel like reality itself was a dream come true.

All is Fair in Love and War

— Ft. Azul Ashengrotto x You

It started with a kiss. A sweet, innocent kiss on his cheek.

You and Azul were walking outside on a bright, sunny day. You can feel the warm rays of the sun on your skin and the cool wind brushing your hair. The weather was great overall. Perfect for an outdoor stroll with your lover.

When the wind picked up, Azul brushed the longer strands of his hair and tucked it to the side a bit, which gave you the opportunity to appreciate his side profile more.

His handsome face. Those ocean-blue eyes. That beauty mark which rests close to his lips.

Instantly and wordlessly, you tug at his arm to pull him down and kiss him. Right where his beauty mark is.

Azul stops. His whole body was frozen in place. He was talking to you about something, but now no words came out of his mouth. His face turns a bright red, going up to his ears.

You were looking at him curiously as Azul stared back at you. A few seconds passed by before Azul pulled you into a tight hug and rested his head on your shoulder.

The people in public think it was a sweet public display of affection. In truth, your kiss was. To Azul, his flustered state made him want to hide, and the only place to hide in this public open space was in the comfort of your neck.

Hence, he pulled you in close and hid his flushed face. You didn't mean to make him this flustered. You just... suddenly wanted to kiss him.

Honestly though, Azul was acting cute. You couldn't help but giggle as you wrapped your arms around him to hug him back.

And kiss him on his neck.

If Azul was red before, he was even redder now and tried to hide even more against your neck, hugging you even tighter.

It took a while before Azul calmed down. Even when you reached home, his heart still raced while thinking about it.

The following day, Azul asked for your help. He didn't tell you any specific details, just that he needed you for something. Being the supportive and loving partner you are, you eagerly followed Azul as he led you somewhere.

And then you get pinned to the wall as his lips press against yours in fervent kiss. A passionate kiss that made your entire body heat up.

Time passes by as you two make out.

When he (hesitantly) pulled away, he could see your flushed expression. Your cheeks were tinted pink. Your eyes looked at him with a dazed look.

Seeing you this way all because of him evoked a satisfied smirk on Azul's face.

"That's payback."

If Azul gets flustered, he is making you flustered too!

Ever since then, Azul would surprise you and shower you with his affections. He would pull you closer by the waist. He would whisper things in your ear. He would leave a kiss here and there. And so on.

It's not like you flustered him on purpose! You just wanted to kiss your smart and scheming yet sweet and loving partner.

But it's not like you oppose this.

Yes, he makes your heart beat so loud and fast.

Yes, he gets you suddenly shy and blushing so hard.

Yet, you love how much time and effort he devotes to you, showing how much he truly loves you.

"Azul!" You called his name out as you blushed.

"Hehe, what?" He chuckled and asked with a smug expression.

"You know what!" You said with a pout, the pinkish hue still evident on your face.

"Ah, you mean when I do things to you? Like... this?"

He started to plant kisses on your neck, traveling up to your cheek and then the corner of your lips.

"I'm just showing you how much I love you."

You love this man so much and gosh! He makes your heart soar and your legs weak so much.

Azul has declared war. Attacking you with his sweet words and gestures.. all to win and secure your heart.

Thanks for reading! 🩷💜

NRC Housewardens

Twisted Wonderland characters sharing a pajama set with their lover—keeping the bottoms while lending them the top.

— Riddle : Leona : Azul : Kalim : Vil : Idia : Malleus x reader! cw : suggestive.

Riddle Rosehearts

Riddle emerged from the bathroom with a proud stride, a rare hint of mischief in his crimson eyes. He wore only the pajama pants, low on his hips, his lean chest and toned stomach fully on display as he casually tossed the matching shirt your way. “Here. I figured it would look better on you,” he said smoothly. “Wait, where are the pants?” you asked, blinking as heat crept up your neck. He smirked—smirked—as he climbed into bed, his eyes dragging slowly down your form. “Already wearing them. If you want matching bottoms, you’ll have to get them off me yourself.” Flustered, you slipped the oversized top on, the hem barely covering your thighs, and padded toward the bed. His gaze was locked on your bare legs the entire time.

Once under the covers, he pulled you against him with surprising boldness, one arm circling your waist, the other gliding along your thigh. His lips brushed your ear, whispering, “Do you have any idea what you do to me, wearing only that?” You gasped softly as his hand slid under the shirt, stroking the bare skin of your hip while his mouth kissed your jaw, trailing to the corner of your lips. “So indecent… and yet I can’t look away.” You turned in his arms, breathless, capturing his lips in a deep, lingering kiss. His fingers tangled in your hair as he kissed you again, more possessively this time. Between breaths, you whispered how lucky you were to have him, and he responded with a quiet, “I’ll prove to you every night just how lucky I am.” His heart thudded against your chest as you fell asleep entangled, warm and completely his.

Leona Kingscholar

Leona stepped out lazily, golden skin glistening faintly from the shower, wearing nothing but the pajama pants slung low on his hips. His toned abs and defined v-line were on full display as he smirked and tossed you the shirt without warning. “This one's yours, herbivore.” You caught it with a confused blink. “Where’s the pants?” His lips curled into a wicked grin. “Already taken. Unless you wanna fight me for them.” You swallowed hard and slipped on the oversized top, the hem stopping just at your upper thighs, leaving you bare underneath. His eyes raked over you with shameless hunger, dark and lazy. “Now that’s a sight worth sleeping next to.”

You barely got into bed before Leona dragged you into his arms, one hand gripping your bare thigh as he tugged you flush against him. His lips found yours in a slow, possessive kiss, his tongue sliding against yours with a quiet growl. “Tch… You really gonna tempt me like this?” he muttered, voice rough against your ear as he nibbled on your lobe. You gasped as his fingers slipped under the shirt, grazing the curve of your rear, his tail curling around your leg. “You drive me crazy, y’know that?” he murmured, pressing hot kisses along your neck. You whispered back how you wanted only him, and his eyes softened—just a little. “Good. You’re mine tonight,” he rumbled, and with one last deep kiss, he pulled you tightly against his chest, fully satisfied with you half-naked in his shirt, already drifting into a dream of you.

Azul Ashengrotto

Azul stepped out with calculated poise, but you could see the faint redness coloring his cheeks as he wore only the pajama pants. The rest of him was bare—his surprisingly defined chest exposed, silver glasses slipping down his nose slightly as he shyly held out the shirt. “Here… I thought it might suit you better.” “Wait, where are the pants?” you asked, blinking at him. He adjusted his glasses and gave you a smirk that sent shivers down your spine. “I’m already wearing them, my pearl.” You pulled on the oversized top, the scent of his cologne clinging to the fabric. As you walked past him, his eyes lingered on your bare legs a bit too long, lips parting slightly in awe.

Once in bed, Azul pulled you into his lap, large hands trailing along your exposed thighs under the shirt. “You’re… breathtaking like this,” he murmured, voice husky, his lips brushing the corner of your mouth before catching you in a slow, sensual kiss. His hands roamed up the small of your back, fingertips teasing the hem of the shirt. “No one else gets to see you like this… only me,” he breathed against your lips. You kissed him again, whispering how deeply you trusted and adored him. Azul’s breath hitched, and he held you tighter, murmuring, “Then let me treasure you, like you deserve.” With your forehead pressed to his, you fell asleep wrapped in him—his shirt clinging to your form, and his heart beating steadily against your chest.

Kalim Al-Asim

Kalim came skipping out of the bathroom, positively glowing, wearing just the pajama pants—bare chest exposed, golden skin glowing with warmth. “I saved this for you!” he said cheerfully, tossing you the matching shirt. “Where are the pants?” you asked, blinking. He gave you a cheeky grin and spun once. “Already on me! Looks like you’re going bottomless tonight!” You blushed but slipped on the oversized shirt anyway. The moment you did, Kalim's eyes lit up with open, affectionate desire. “Wow… you look amazing like that. I didn’t know I had such good taste!”

When you crawled into bed, Kalim didn’t hesitate to throw the covers over both of you and immediately pulled you into a straddling position. “You feel so soft,” he murmured, his hands gently caressing your thighs as he pressed kisses along your neck and collarbone. “Can I kiss you here? And here?” His lips trailed lower until you gasped his name, gripping his shoulders. You whispered that he made you feel loved—wanted—and he beamed, fingers now sliding under the hem of the shirt to draw slow circles along your hips. “You are loved,” he said with a smile that melted your heart. “And tonight, you’re all mine.” Eventually, you both curled under the covers, your legs tangled with his, his arms caging you like you were the most precious thing in the world.

Vil Schoenheit

Vil stepped into the room with deliberate grace, wearing only the silk pajama pants that hugged his slim hips. The definition of his torso gleamed under the soft lighting, and he held the shirt out to you like it was a gift wrapped in seduction. “This deserves to grace your body more than mine,” he purred. You hesitated, flustered. “But… where are the pants?” His lips curled into a knowing smile, a single brow arched. “Already claimed, darling. If you wanted them, you should’ve spoken up sooner.” You pulled on the satin top, the fabric clinging to your bare thighs, and Vil’s gaze dropped lower, heat simmering in his amethyst eyes. “Divine,” he whispered, his voice rich and sinful.

When you joined him under the covers, Vil pulled you into his arms like you were made to fit there. His hand slipped beneath the shirt, stroking your back, fingers trailing deliberately downward. “You realize what you’re doing to me, dressed like this?” he murmured against your lips before kissing you—deep, thorough, and intoxicating. He whispered praises into your skin, brushing your thighs with his slender fingers, lips grazing your neck, jaw, collarbone. “You tempt me without trying. But I’ll behave... for now.” You giggled breathlessly, whispering how beautiful he was, how lucky you felt. He smiled, brushing his thumb over your cheek. “Sleep beside me like this every night, and I’ll never need another dream.”

Idia Shroud

The door creaked open and Idia peeked out, face red as his hair tips, dressed only in the pajama pants. His pale torso was slightly flushed, lanky but with a subtle softness, and he avoided your eyes as he held out the top. “Y-You wear it… It’ll look better on you than on me…” You tilted your head, confused. “But where are the pants?” He tugged the hem a little lower, fidgeting. “I-I’m wearing them already, duh…! It’s not like I didn’t plan this or anything… ” Your face heated, but you slipped into the oversized top. His eyes darted to your legs, and he made a strangled sound. “Oh. Oh no. This is a critical hit.”

When you joined him in bed, he froze, then wrapped you awkwardly in his arms with surprising confidence, especially when his hand brushed your bare thigh. “Wearing just that is cheating,” he mumbled, breath tickling your ear. You kissed him softly, and he let out a shaky breath, kissing you back with surprising depth—slow, trembling, hungry. “You’re… way too powerful like this,” he whispered as his hand slid up your thigh, thumb tracing lazy circles on your skin. You whispered back how you always wanted to be close to him—body, heart, soul. He buried his face in your neck, whispering back, “You already are. Just don’t disappear from my screen, okay?” Holding you tight, your legs tangled, his heart raced long into the night.

Malleus Draconia

Malleus stepped out like royalty incarnate, his sculpted chest bare, obsidian pajama pants resting elegantly on his hips. His gaze glowed faintly as he offered you the matching top. “For you, my dear,” he said, voice low and melodic. “And the pants?” you asked softly. He tilted his head, amused, a glimmer of mischief in his eyes. “They are already adorning me. Should you desire them, I could be persuaded to part with them… later.” You slipped the top on, feeling suddenly small under his gaze, as if you were his most beloved possession. The shirt fell well past your thighs, but the cool night air made your bare skin tingle.

As soon as you laid beside him, Malleus wrapped his arms around you, effortlessly drawing you into his lap, your thighs straddling his. “You wear my clothes so beautifully,” he murmured, pressing a kiss to your temple, then trailing down to your throat with agonizing slowness. His clawed fingers slid under the shirt, resting possessively on your waist. “This… closeness,” he whispered as your foreheads touched, “is a privilege I shall cherish.” His kiss was languid, exploring, reverent. You murmured how safe, how loved you felt. He pulled you tighter. “Then sleep, my beloved. I shall guard your dreams.” With your cheek against his chest, you drifted into peaceful slumber—clothed only in his warmth.
