Everyone retained their memories from previous

In this au all the capture targets including the duke suddenly recall their respective memories of all the previous cycles. However there is one very big difference in this cycle, Yvonne is alive.

The Eckart siblings never snuck out to the festival, Yvonne had a fever from running around in the rain days before. She never convinced her brothers to sneak out to the festival, and she never got separated from them thus the Duke never adopted Penelope while looking for Yvonne.

Yvonne also has her memories from her time in the mirror of truth and being possessed by Laila.

Upon realizing that they never adopted Penelope the Eckarts begin frantically searching for her joined by the Crown Prince and Vinter. However, since it has been nearly six years by then, they have no leads. When they ask around the town about the duke who met her, they learn that her mother died but she was never buried and Penelope was nowhere to be found.

Cut to Penelope, after her mother passed away slave traders captured her, this particular group of slave traders has a reputation in the black market for selling high-quality ‘merchandise’. They initially intended to sell her along with the other enslaved children but because of her exotic hair colour, they decided to keep her until she was older so she would be sold at a much higher price. 

This particular organization is known for selling high-quality slaves as they ‘train’ them to serve multiple purposes. Penelope was able to learn to read and write because of this. However, one day the slave traders found out she could use magic, and they quickly scrapped the idea of selling her and instead using her for their own purpose. 

They forced her to learn magic on her own, she has a room with a straw bed, a bookshelf and writing material. Since she didn’t have anyone to teach her properly she had to get creative to get any results.

Compared to the other slaves she does get better treatment but she is more likely to get punished whether it was because they expect more from her and think she’s not working faster enough or she just happens to be in the vicinity whenever they're in a bad mood so they take out their frustrations on her.

Throughout the years she has gotten better at magic and has made process on her escape plan. The only problem is the colla they put on her neck that will electrocute her should she disobey an order. It's the only thing keeping her from running away and she is on a time crunch as she is finally going to be sold at the upcoming auction. And she's the main attraction.

Back to everyone else, Vinter has been looking for Penelope since the time-loop reset and has come across a rumour of a slave auction coming up at a party. It said that these merchants possess high-quality 'merchandise' and their prized possession is said to be a girl with the blood of a wizard.

This obviously gets his attention and upon further investigation, he not only finds out that the majority of the Empress's fraction are are going to attend this auction but the fact that these merchants may have ties with Laila . So he enlists the help of the Crown Prince in order to raid this event.

Callisto obviously uses the opportunity to weaken the Empress's fraction so that he could focus on finding Penelope. After much preparation, they've successfully completed the raid and arrested everyone involved.

Everyone involved is happy that she's alive and all but they quickly realized that unlike then she doesn't have memories of the time loops.

Callisto lead the royal guards whilst Vinter took stock of the slaves. You could imagine the look on his face when he came across the person he's been looking for, Penelope. He almost didn't believe it because she looked so....different.

She actually does have all her memories it's just that unlike them she went back in time to after her mother died so she now has to deal with her trauma from the six years she was a slave.

Hi so I'm looking for a post where Dani/Ellie goes to Gotham and decided she was gonna be Robin/Damien's rouge or something but really it was just like a playdate and the Batfam were cool with it.

🎃👻Halloween🎃👻

For some odd reason, the main cast finds themselves in a haunted house/escape room scenario. They have to solve puzzles to progress deeper into the building in order to get out.

Not even half an hour in, everybody has concluded that they need to put a leash on Penelope. Because homegirl just keeps disappearing under their noses at random intervals looking for clues or flat out walking away from them in plain sight to investigate something else.

I imagine that if Penelope was in a horror movie she would be the first to run when shit gets spooky. Like, the group is looking around the room trying to solve the puzzle when something moves on its own and Penelope becomes an Olympic track star. She already had to deal with death flags she was not gonna deal with ghosts.

Fans of VADD, what was it about the story/premise that made you read it and at which point did it become your favorite? You can Reblog your answers.

For me personally, it was the Female Lead's name and hair. I have personally held a special place in my heart for the name Penelope I can't explain it. Ironically I had an OC whom I named Penelope who was a redhead but it was more orange.

Speaking of hair, Penelope's hair was the first thing that stood out to me about her. I've seen and read my fair share of anime, light novels, and manhua but I personally never saw the shade of pink Penelope has so I was very surprised. Usually, any pink-haired character has the soft pinks we see with characters like Reynold and Ivonne. They were never as dark as Penelope's.

This kind of works for the story in my opinion because her darker hair fits her image as the villainess since in media the villains usually have a darker color palette compared to the main characters. This is ironic considering that Ivonne the main character of the game who has brighter hair and color palette was actually the villain.

(this was way longer than I thought it would be)

Penelope and Callisto use to secretly date in high school. They met at the beginning of their final year of high school but broke up just before graduation. While they were compatible with one another, it was their family problems that drove them apart.

Callisto's relationship with his stepmother was downright hostile and Penelope was still clinging to the possibility that her family might love her. They both tried to not let it affect their romantic life but there was only so much they could have done given that they both were about to graduate and possibly go to different universities.

This all resulted in a massive argument between them that ultimately led them to break up.

They graduated high school got into different colleges, graduated from said colleges and got jobs and try to move on with their lives. The key word being tried. While they didn't want to admit it, they still miss one another and all the good times they had even if it was for a short time.

Years later they've both gotten promoted in their jobs. Their companies just so happen to collab with each other on a big project. Penelope and Callisto who are very hard workers in their jobs are chosen by their respective companies to be a part of this project, they think it will be just like every other assignment they've done before.

So imagine their surprise when they see each other at the beginning of the program. Their minds are like "Oh shit, what is he/she doing here?" while keeping a poker face. They decide right then and there to avoid each other as subtly as possible to avoid drama but low and behold their place in the same group together.

Not a problem they'll just do what they do best, ignore the problem till it goes away or till they have no choice but to confront it. The two of them decided that avoiding each other outside of work is the best option and all seems to go well...…....for a while.

You see, Penelope and Callisto work very well together despite trying to avoid any other interaction with one another. But even then they tend to bicker and throw jabs at one another at every chance they get.

Their other group members have collectively agreed that they are made for one another. Cut to them trying their best to get Penelope and Callisto to spend as much time together as possible without it being too suspicious.

This leads to both parties feeling emotionally drained at the end of every day from all the mental gymnastics they're doing around each other. They catch on to what their colleges are doing but don't have the time to tell them to stop, plus they'd prefer not to go around explaining that the person the group is trying to set them up with is the high school ex.

But soon they settle into their temporary routines and sparks are beginning to fly between to two. They're more comfortable around each other now and are reminded of how things were between them when they started dating years ago.

Everything is going normal until months later when they hit an important milestone in their project. To celebrate, their bosses take their workers out for a few drinks. You can see where this is going.

Long story short, Penelope and Callisto both get drunk, head off to Callisto's apartment and had sex, they went at it the whole night and slept till noon and would have missed work if it wasn't a Saturday.

Suffice it to say they were horrified when they woke up. To make matters worse, Penelope can't leave cause there is a massive storm outside, the streets are flooding and people are advised to remain indoors. So they've stuck indoors...…with each other...….not a problem at all.

They are a little awkward around each other since this is their first time in years interacting with each other outside of work. Things were a little tense on day one but they settled into a temporary routine by day two and were comfortable sharing a space together. But they could only ignore the massive elephant in the room for so long.

One of them finally brought up the topic that they indeed slept together the night before. Their both not embarrassed by this considering they were each other's first in high school. But the conversation inevitably shifts to their nasty breakup literally a week before graduation, and that leads them to bring up some still painful memories about the families they've since cut off from their lives.

To them, there was just too much happening all at once so suddenly. Things got tense in their respective households, they had to prepare for graduation, prepare college and all that jazz. They didn't seem to have time to process their emotions back then which lead to them braking up on such bad terms.

But now they're older and have worked through their issues over the years. However, they genuinely never expected to see one another again after going to separate colleges.

So after a very long talk, they decided to give their relationship another chance. They took things slow at the beginning which escalated to going on trips together and moving in together. After two years Callisto proposed, they got married, bought a house and had kids.

THE END

I feel like at some point in their time together the male leads have contemplated putting Penelope on a leash when out in public. because homegirl be wandering away from them getting into all sorts of trouble.

They've definitely got a bunch of mini-heart attacks when they take their eyes off her for barely 5 seconds only to look back and find her gone.

They're probably using the fact that no one knows that Penelope can use magic as their trump card. She could sabatoge their enemies using her magic and no one will suspect her.

They're plan was take down nobles on the Second Prince's fraction one by one. But shenanigans happen and their arranged to marry each other for some reason. And they use their engagement party to fully carryout their plans in one full swoop.

Dude don't leave me hanging like that! I have so many questions.

One Thousand and One Nights

[This is a idea-fanfiction collaboration with @ship-ovnik​]

“Your Highness, would you like to hear a story?”

“Story? Do you know about something that the Crown Prince of this empire doesn’t know?”

“It’s a little story that could brighten up our evening”

Callisto put glass of wine on the bedside table and got out of bed, gave her his hand and sat her down on the couch opposite the other, on which he lay down comfortably with his head thrown back.

Surprisingly, His Highness turned out to be an attentive listener, who interrupted from time to time, asking a small clarifying question. Of course, it is much easier to surprise an inexperienced viewer, or rather a character from the game, with a retelling of “Harry Potter”, “The Chronicles of Narnia” and even “Winx” or “Twilight”…Literature that has never existed in this world.

If Siyeon had been asked if she had assumed that running away from the Eckart family would turn out to be the prince’s concubine, she would have immediately cursed this man, not sparing the magic stone, and ran away from him as far as possible. But here she is, in the palace of the Crown Prince, sitting in his chambers and trying in every possible way to delay the moment when he reaches out to her for caresses, retelling to him the plot of teenage literature from her world.

It was crazy, but damn it, he liked it, and he listened, greedily swallowing every word.

When Siyeon woke up in Penelope’s body, she realized with horror that it wasn’t a stupid dream at all. She got into the world of the game, becoming the main villain.  Knowing the plot and further events, she tried to rationally figure out how to complete the game without repeating the sad end of Penelope. But after trying to use the game mechanics, in the form of answer options, as well as to establish relations with her brothers, she realizes that no matter what she chooses, she will still be in a losing position. Siyeon spends too much time trying to establish a relationship, and the risk of a bad ending does not decrease, the potential protagonist can change his mind at any moment and leave her with nothing, choosing Yvonne at the very end of the game. Neither Vinter, nor Callisto, nor Iklies inspired her with confidence. There is only one way out - to achieve a good ending for Penelope herself, without the participation of male characters.

“Surely there is a hidden ending in this game, where the villain remains alone and goes into the sunset so as not to interfere with the happiness of the main characters,” she thought, collecting jewelry and dresses with her to get money from their sale, on which she could live comfortably for many years.

Wearing a magic bracelet, Penelope hid her appearance and went to a small dysfunctional town where no one would ask her a single question about where she got such jewelry.

Penelope goes on a little trip, wanting to get away from the capital. And finally, she finds a small town in the south where  needs a man in the town hall who can read, write and count. The elder turns out to be an elderly old man who was happy to hire her. Penelope helps in the library along the way, sorting books and helping to organize a file cabinet, while studying paleontology and the history of the ancient world, trying to learn more about the empire and its rules.

But after a few months, the quiet town turns into a noisy farce. Everyone is preparing for the holiday - the return of the Crown Prince from the war with victory. Fortunately for the residents, their city was one of the transit points before returning to the capital to replenish supplies and get some rest.

Hearing this news, Penelope was scared to death. She needed to avoid meeting a madman so that the game would not force her to participate in a chain of stupid quests for the sake of a percentage of sympathy over his head.

In order not to accidentally pass the game on a “happy” ending with him.

Penelope, as the elder’s assistant, was obliged to help with the counting of provisions and preparations for the celebration. That’s why she went to the military camp, where she met Cedric Potter, the assistant to the Crown Prince. And it would seem that the nightmare has passed… But, alas…

During the festivities in the central square, Penelope, enjoying the fireworks, did not notice how someone quietly crept up behind her and grabbed her hand.

“Is a beautiful lady walking here all alone?”

*The title is a reference to work about the Persian king Shahryar and his wife Scheherazade.

Pregnancy Shenanigans

Penelope slept a lot when she was deeper into her pregnancy like you could not wake her up unless it was time to eat or bathe.

I imagine she had quite a death grip on Callisto whenever they slept at night and he had to pry himself away to get up for work.

But no matter what he did he would not escape her for long. Sometimes if she felt clingy she would waddle to his office and sit in his lap without a word and stay there.

Penelope ate a lot more food than before thanks to her pregnancy cravings. She had had a better relationship with food even after giving birth.

When the doctor recommended going on walks every day to build muscles for labour, Callisto made sure she went on a walk three times a day after every meal.

She hated it.

I imagine that later in her 2nd trimester is when the shenanigans started.

Penelope and Callisto didn't know what to expect when it came to their future child. Given that they both descendants of ancient wizards and the golden dragon respectively.

So it didn't surprise them that much when their child was suddenly using magic while still in the womb.

It was mostly harmless things like levitating small items in whatever room Penelope was in nothing else.

But there was one incident where an assassin tried to assassinate Penelope in the night when Callisto had to work late. The guards were alerted to the intruder right away but the assassin held her hostage in an attempt to escape.

In all of the commotion no one noticed Penelope navel glowing gold as the baby reacted to their mother's fear and levitate a vase to smash it into the assassin's head making him release Penelope from surprise. He was executed by the guards present.

After that they moved the Empress to a another room for the rest of her pregnancy. Callisto became paranoid after the incident.

Luckily the rest of her pregnancy went smoothly.

I don't if it's the angst lover in me or something but I like seeing couples argue. And right now I would pay good money to Penelope and Callisto to argue. Because to me, there is nothing better than watching two characters that love each other scream at each other. I need these two to argue about something only for it to turn into them calling out each other's flaws. I need them to finally crack and admit their true feelings to one another and explain why they went about everything the way they did. I need the angst. I also need them to make up and do the devils tango afterwards no matter where they are.
