Summarized transcript of the Twisted Radio episode with Diasomnia! šŸ‰šŸ¦‡āš”ļøāš”ļø
Highlights: A very good episode, all the Diasomnia VAs love their characters and each other’s characters and each other and it is very obvious when they interact.
Disclaimer: These are not direct quotes, this is all general summarizations and paraphrasing~
Begins with how they are happy to be all together in one place, for the first time in two years.
The opening talk set by last week: what do you find yourself buying when you travel?
āš”ļøIt seems 🦦-kun wanted to buy a dragon sword… šŸ‰ I’ve bought one before. šŸ¦‡ Why wwww šŸ‰ In elementary school
On topic: šŸ‰ I love milk. Every time I go some place I buy milk to drink. A recent musical I was in traveled nationwide and the milk in Hokkaido is different depending upon the area. I was so happy.
šŸ¦‡I like to get things to remind me of the trip. It doesn’t matter what they are. It doesn’t even have to be related to the area. Just a prize from a Game Center or a gacha toy or anything is fine.
āš”ļø Dragons. Apparently they’re growing in popularity.Ā 
He talks about how around high school everyone loses interest, but then you become an adult and are like ā€œactually yeah dragons are greatā€ ww
šŸ¦‡ We should get on that bandwagon. Officially recognized by Diasomnia ww āš”ļø We have the most noble and beautiful dragon of them all šŸ¦‡ Out of all the dragons that there are, he certainly stands out
(Everyone is laughing so much they are having so much fun)
āš”ļøI like getting fruit or something that was made from things grown in the area, even if it’s temporary, to remember the taste
(āš”ļø is the host so it is his job to keep them on subject ww there are a lot of cuts in this episode, they must have talked for so long and needed to cut it down)
Fan letter: I had a dream where I talked about how wonderful Malleus-sama is for ten hours. What strange dreams have you had before?
āš”ļøI have been seeing the same dream since I was a kid. A kind of horror dream. The same dream where I am being chased by something.Ā 
āš”ļø There are dreams I had as a kid that really left an impression on me. I remember them pretty well. Like one where I became a character from a cartoon that could fly. I became one of the main characters. An enemy would appear, someone would say ā€œLet’s go!ā€ and they’d all naturally start to fly. And even though I was a main character, I’d say ā€œLet’s go!ā€ and I was the only one who wouldn’t be able to fly. Everyone else flew off and I couldn’t. I was the main character and they all left me behind. I started crying that I couldn’t fly and then I woke up.
šŸ¦‡ I’ve had a dream about situation where I could fly, too. Even though I could fly, when I jumped from somewhere high up instead of going straight I would go fly upwards, then think, ā€œYeah, I can fly,ā€ and that is when I could go forward. I perform safety checks within my dream.
šŸ‰ In a dream I had in university I could fly, but just some light floating. Everyone else travels very quickly, and at first I can as well, but then I get lower and lower, and soon I am floating about 5cm. I’m technically flying, but…I saw that dream a lot.
(This entire story āš”ļø is in the background dying of laughter)
About Malleus
He was very mysterious when he first appeared. āš”ļø says he had the feeling from the start that he was a very good character.Ā 
šŸ¦‡ He had an atmosphere of someone who is difficult to go near.
āš”ļø I like Malleus-sama even more now than I did before. Not just what about him that is firm but his soft side, his warm side, his cold side—we can see so many aspects of his character now, which has made him even more captivating. Because he is so mysterious something even more wonderful than what I had imagined has emerged—that is the impression I have of him now.
šŸ¦‡ They did a great job with his casting. I didn’t really know anything at first, but doing this for so long, you can tell how perfect šŸ‰-kun is for this part.Ā 
šŸ‰ I’m so happy :D
šŸ¦‡ Of course everyone wants to know more in the beginning because of his cool voice, but šŸ‰-kun has a kindness to him. And that is what I came to understand. They took that into account when they chose him. When I figured that out, I was extremely impressed. This isn’t something that just anyone can do. It’s not enough to just provide a cool character voice. It’s a distinct charm that he has.
āš”ļø The character is really packed with substance, but there’s still space left, and you can sense that mysteriousness. Because there is so much going on inside of him there are things for you to grasp at while simultaneously stirring your imagination. I really sense that.
šŸ¦‡ When you try to think of other seiyuu like that, no one really comes to mind. It has to be šŸ‰-kun.
šŸ‰ Is it okay if I start to cry?
āš”ļø And when he sings…
āš”ļø That humming…
āš”ļø That was amazing.
šŸ‰ That was so hard to do. They told me, ā€œplease hum like you mean it,ā€ and I thought, ā€œwhat is humming that you mean?ā€ Humming that follows a melody, that becomes a sound. I had never done that before. It was really hard. We tried several different patterns.
āš”ļø It was scary. Both an ending and a beginning.
šŸ¦‡ But as the story continues I find him cute, too. And šŸ‰-kun is cute, too.
(Everyone is laughing, I think āš”ļø is going to die here)
šŸ¦‡ No I’m serious, really, really.Ā 
šŸ‰ While portraying Malleus the difficult thing is always not showing too much emotion,.The direction I am always receiving is ā€œyou can’t become human.ā€ They’ll say, ā€œthat take sounded just like a regular guy.ā€ The balance of how his normal is not normal for a human is always hard to do. And post-overblot Malleus—they’ll tell me, ā€œSorry, but Malleus sounds kind of scary.ā€ I often get told ā€œcan you control the darkness a bit.ā€ But through all that how do I still portray Malleus-ness…
šŸ¦‡ The more you read for a character the more you come to understand them, but Malleus was last.
šŸ‰ There was a lot of uncertainty in the beginning. I have concluded that he is cute. He’s a child. He’s been alive longer than the others, but his emotional state hasn’t caught up to that. He has so much power, but he lacks the normal concept of common sense. Things that are common sense to him are not so to others. I am always trying to portray that unusual dichotomy.
āš”ļø talks about being able to see Malleus grow up in Book 7 through the different milestones were see in the flashbacks. There are places where he has always been the same but parts about him that have evolved. āš”ļø tells šŸ‰ that it seems like that must have been hard.
šŸ‰ It was so hard.Ā  I think there’s probably a way of interacting with Malleus that's in line with how he understands things, even though I don't fully understand it. When encountering him for the first time, people around him might think, 'Wow, he doesn’t react at all!' But Malleus does react in his own way. I would receive many detailed directions like 'Please be surprised!' or 'Please react!' I didn’t create this performance all by myself, it has come together from the efforts of the staff, and I’m really grateful for that. I tend to lose track of what was the right way to approach things as Malleus. You can get confused between doing events and the main story, so getting back into the right mindset every time is pretty tough.
About Silver
šŸ‰ I thought he was really cool when I saw him the first time.
āš”ļø I think it’s cute how he falls asleep—he’ll wake up, apologize, and then immediately sleep again.
šŸ¦‡ He’s really pretty.
šŸ‰ I thought he had a beautiful face the first time I saw him.
āš”ļø My portrayal of him hasn’t really changed since the beginning. We’ve gotten more information and there is more of a backbone now, and of course things change when new things are revealed. Even from the beginning he wasn’t just a cool character, he had a naturalness to him, and not just that he spaces out, but he tries to solve his problems with physical strength. Like in Book 7 with ā€œif I hit it that will fix it.ā€ I think his humanity is being expressed more these days.
šŸ¦‡ It took a while, yeah?
āš”ļø It took so long.
šŸ¦‡ It took us a while to get to Malleus, too, but he had the impact of his first appearance. Silver didn’t have anything.
Now they’re talking about Lilia’s farewell party and Malleus and Silver crying together and not knowing how to express their emotions. Trying to be mature.Ā 
āš”ļø He’s being a big brother to Silver!!
šŸ¦‡ I figured something was coming soon, after that. And it went in an intense direction.
āš”ļø There is so much about them that is a family. Father is Lilia, and Malleus-sama has a big-brother nature to him.
šŸ‰ You really feel their familial relationship.
āš”ļø He felt some responsibility. If the little brother starts to cry, the older brother—
šŸ‰ He can’t cry.
āš”ļø He’ll get desperate to try and be strong and try to solve the problem.
šŸ‰ Like he has to step up.
šŸ¦‡ So it was Silver’s fault.
āš”ļøāš”ļøšŸ‰wwwwww
āš”ļøNot all of it. Silver would never say this, but the reason things became so difficult for the two of them is…their love for their father.
šŸ¦‡ Sebek and Silver are a good combination, too.
āš”ļø Such a good combination~~~
šŸ¦‡ They’re complete opposites but they’re also surprisingly similar.
āš”ļøThey’re both so honest.
šŸ‰ They’re honest and serious and good kids, both of them.
āš”ļø They never had the opportunity to show emotion like that until 7. They are both very quick to cry.
šŸ‰ They’re so much alike.
āš”ļøI guess this is what happens when you’re raised together with someone. I think Silver is the older brother, looking from Sebek’s perspective. There is a moment where Sebek is scolded for the first time. In the moment, when I was reading, āš”ļøā€™s portrayal really is angry. I even said it, ā€œHe finally scolded him for the first time.ā€
About Sebek
āš”ļøI think he empowers himself by speaking so loudly. Once he decides on doing something, he goes straight for it, true to his unique magic. With how strongly he sticks to his principles it’s like he could overcome any obstacle, like in that scene he had with Silver, but it was very cute that he actually loses there.
āš”ļøTHAT WAS SO CUTE. That was a great part.Ā 
(āš”ļø is literally yelling into his mic about how cute Sebek is)
āš”ļøThe fact that he was able to get out the words he really wanted to say after he lost the fight shows that he does want to say what is on his mind but there is a wall that he has to break down, and then he can move forward. That is a moment where you can really understand Sebek-kun’s feelings. And once he lets his emotions out, they’re out w
šŸ‰ He can’t put the lid back on. Everything spills out.
āš”ļø (dying in the background)
āš”ļøtalks about how much effort Sebek puts into everything and he reads so much and there is so much he wants people to know, which is why he is so loud.
šŸ¦‡Sebek and Silver have both had a lot more lines recently. Doesn’t your voice get worn out during recordings?
āš”ļøIt doesn’t! I do stretches and things before recordings. I figured out that I need that kind of physical exercise to prepare.
About Lilia
āš”ļø Mom.
šŸ‰ A cute mom.
āš”ļøThere was a lot of gaps* in 7.
*I can’t figure out a good way to say this in English. It is the difference between what you expect and what something really is.
šŸ‰ Too many gaps, it was so surprising.
šŸ¦‡ I had heard nothing about any of that.
āš”ļø I had an image of him as someone who is gentle and cute and a senpai who enjoys pranks and looks out for others…
šŸ¦‡ He used to be completely different.
āš”ļøAnd there was egg-sama.
šŸ‰ Egg-sama w
āš”ļøāš”ļøIt’s not inaccurate.
šŸ¦‡ I have done a lot of crying scenes before. When you first look at the script it hits you, and when you think about how you have to portray what you just read so that the people listening to your performance feel the same emotion—there is a pressure to that. I can’t be the only one crying. I have to make others cry.
āš”ļø Something that šŸ¦‡-san said (during the special talk show that šŸ¦‡ and šŸ‰ did together last year talking about Book 7 just the two of them) that I really liked and wanted to ask about: You and Baul’s VA Koyasu-san (🐊) have been performing together a lot over the years. And you came back together for the first time in a while for this. You said that you didn’t want to give him the impression of ā€œSo this is what šŸ¦‡ is like these days.ā€ So there was that pressure, you didn’t want to give an embarrassing performance in front of him, and I realized that you have a passionate spirit that you don’t really show, in my opinion—but it’s there! I got really excited about that.
šŸ‰ I was surprised, too, that even šŸ¦‡-san has those same thoughts.
āš”ļøSame!
šŸ¦‡ Of course I do. The pressure was intense. I am glad that we were able to record together, but…
And with the Chapter 13 release announcement they say they have permission to share this information:
šŸ¦‡ and šŸ‰ were able to record together!
šŸ‰ It was amazing. It was truly an amazing time for me.
šŸ¦‡ It was our first time performing together.
Upcoming calendar review~ and done!

A Personalized Hell
Back to my obsession with Crowley-is-Raverne-theory book 7 dream NSJXJF,,,what if he was too self-aware of the nature of the dreams. That this landscape preyed on the idea of ā€œwhat could’ve been.ā€ I imagine it’s rather painful to know the dreamworld was false from the very, very beginning
šŸ’¦ I feel a little embarrassed trying to explain SCNJCJF, but I tried my best to make the drawing look unnatural by using the ā€œdutch angleā€ that is seen a lot in unsettling scenes in film. Crowley’s hair moves with the angle, but Lilia and Meleanor’s hair remains still and unaffected by the camera angle. I hope that makes sense šŸ’¦šŸ’¦
I was in the mood to give Lilia a different outfit. Maybe he has retired in this dream, still living in Wild Rose Castle but has a slightly more peaceful lifestyle. Slightly šŸ’¦

hehehe I'm here again to share my thoughts about the new halloween event and Yuu. >:D
Jamil sort of trying to 'comfort' Skully is SO cute?? The angst is building up and I honestly hope Yuu can somehow play a bigher role in helping Skully, especially since they seem to share similarities.
But now that I think about it, sometimes it throws me off to see how majority of the fandom portrays Yuu as the overworked "therapist" who's tired of everyone and everything. Especially when it's clear to see that the cast helps out eachother a lot, while Yuu shared only a few 'deep' conversations with the boys throughout the game and also gets protected during fights. I feel like it takes away from the boys characters when the moments that show them caring about eachother and helping eachother out are completely being ignored or seemingly being re-written as Yuu doing all the work.
I totally don't mind when someone writes their Yuu to do all the 'therapist'—work, but seeing this under almost every comment section that includes Yuu is rather tiring. Especially since in-game Yuu doesn't seem to hate their stay in twst all that much.
I hope I don't sound rude haha, I guess this kind of ended up being a bit of a ramble? Sorry if I do! TnT
Hey again diggoes!!!
I actually do agree with your statement about the whole fandom's portrayal of Yuu being an unpaid therapist and TBH I thought the joke/meme was very funny at first until slowly, the joke started becoming less funnier to me when that's all people talked about when it came to Yuu's character. While Yuu isn't purposefully involving themselves in overblot incidents, they do help others without really complaining about it.
I think that one of the major reasons Yuu is labelled as an unpaid therapist is also because of how we, mostly a lot of the players for this game, tend to get tired of NRC's BS and may project that kind of feeling to Yuu (who is basically a self-insert character), which leads many of those in the fandom to think that way.
However, as you have stated, Yuu isn't the only one helping everyone out. In fact, a lot of the overblots are resolved from teamwork and cooperation on involved members. It's a group effort done by all sides of the parties despite NRC students having a knack for being selfish and prideful jerks who prioritise their needs/desires above everyone else.
But I believe another reason many tend to feel that way is because being in Twisted Wonderland, specifically in NRC, wasn't a choice that the player OR even Yuu gets to choose voluntarily which is something I would agree on partially. And unlike other characters in the game, Yuu and Grim have been involved in every single dangerous/life threatening events and even get to be involved with certain things that are far too personal for acquaintances such as them to get involved (particularly Diasomnia especially in book 7).
Although Yuu hasn't had any moments where they are shown to hate their stay in Twisted Wonderland, it is important to note that they seem to be homesick depending on the choices you choose in Book 7. Yuu doesn't really get a choice on many things, but it doesn't mean that they help begrudgingly. They help even without receiving anything in return.
With all that being said, if people were regarding this about Yuu, then the same should be said to apply to Grim; who has shown far more disregard and complaints about their involvement compared to Yuu. HELL– we even see Grim complain about the fact that Yuu helps out other characters too much. Sure, Grim starts AND stirs a lot of trouble, but a lot of times, it isn't really done intentionally. He can be naĆÆve and really insensitive.
That's what I have to say about this topic at least! I don't really mind the 'unpaid therapist' concept with Yuu, but it does get overdone in the fandom and it does seem to disregard the efforts of the other characters too. Although, I do think that the unpaid therapist concept joke can work with people's own portrayals of Yuu, in-game Yuu hasn't really shown their complaints so far. Well, except with Crowley.
Thanks for the new message! ā¤ļø

Hey there! Hope you are well! I love your in-depth theories and analysis alongside analogies, shows your heartfelt dedication and I’m happy you share it with all of us! I wasn’t sure who to exactly ask, but you seem to be the right person.
So yknow how in fae folklore, faeries can’t lie. So far I’m not sure if I have caught any incident where the fae have lied, I think they have used white lies (maybe?). But is it canon in twst that fae can’t lie here either? Have the events up now established this fact?
Hello there Anon!! 🩷
About your question, I have known that in fae folklore, faeries are incapable of lying! But so far, nothing has been confirmed about the faeries in Twisted Wonderland at least! There are moments where Lilia has joked about certain things to Sebek such as that one protein shake in his Gym Uniform vignette, but as you've stated, they're probably more like white lies!
If we're going with Book 7 lore so far, Lilia hasn't lied to Silver about his origins either! All he did was keep significant details about his origins, but he never really lied. He never brought up the circumstances of how Malleus hatched out of his egg and in his voice lines, all he said was that he remembered how he hatched out of it and left out the biggest fact that HE hatched him out of the egg.
We haven't seen many instances of Malleus, Lilia, Sebek (partially), Baul, or Maleanor lying which is very interesting to observe, so maybe faeries ARE incapable of lying. But it doesn't mean that they're also incapable of feeling certain ways even if they're not true (ex: like Sebek caring for Silver but denying it, Lilia believing that Malleus, Sebek, and Silver can basically live without him). So if TWST continues to go down this route, maybe there's a chance that faeries are incapable of lying!
Thanks for the message!! I hope this helped you out! šŸ’›

i don't know a lot about skully (yet), so tell me if this is ooc but skullyuu in my eyes is basically touch-starved character x touch-starved character and i love that for them. like yeah i can see mc just suddenly hold onto skully's suit in order not to get lost (they tend to tug/pull people's clothes a lot judging by the main cast's voice lines) and he doesn't mind. he even suggests them to hold his hand and they both just vibe together while the NRC students are STUNNED at how careless the prefect once again is. anyway skullyuu is top tier imo already i love them and i can't wait to see what the event has in store for us. >:D
hey there!!!
I ABSOLUTELY AGREE WITH THIS TAKE!! It would be so hilarious esp if we consider the hilarious reactions it would elicit from the NRC characters. Both Yuu and Skully give the "odd one out" vibes so when they match each other's weirdness, they become UNSTOPPABLE. Skullyuu is just THAT powerful (an exaggeration maybe, but the dynamic would BE SO FREAKING GOOD)
THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR THOUGHTS!! 🩷🩷🩷🩷

THIS!!!!! ↑↑↑
Also hey Kallisto! I HOPE YOU DON'T MIND ME BARGING INTO THIS THREAD UNANNOUNCED, BUT I JUST REALLY AGREE WITH EVERYTHING YOU SAID HERE AS A HUGE LILINORVAN SHIPPER ENTHUSIAST!
āš ļø Reminder/WARNING: Everything below this is all my personal perspective and opinion on the ship/dynamic! I will be mentioning ā™„ļø and ā™ ļø at some point so... āš ļø
I find it really saddening when I see people treat Lilia as some kinda outsider or "other man/woman" trope in relation to Maleanor and Raverne's relationship even though from what I've seen, Lilia has been involved and IS involved with them. And no, I don't just mean this as a romantic shipper, but as a person who loves their ambiguous relationship.
And the same ESPECIALLY applies to Raverne! I've seen interpretations where people don't really include him in Lilia's grief even though Lilia has been teaching/passing down the beliefs and opinions of Raverne's life to Malleus, and HE HIMSELF follows in his footsteps it by raising Silver. Maleanor LOVED Raverne so much, she ravished him in her affection! And Lilia loved Raverne so much, he valued Raverne's life enough to let the memories of him live on.
Raverne is so significant yet somehow, I've seen people only process Maleanor's involvement and focus on the aspect of Lilia's unrequited love for her and their relationship alone, as if Raverne doesn't exist. You said it yourself; Lilia doesn't only grieve for Maleanor, but Raverne. Both Raverne and Maleanor are significant to Lilia. I feel like all three of them are so important to one another, even if each of them have different dynamics.
While yes it's true that Maleanor was harsh, wildly aggressive with Lilia, that's also her own way of loving him. Lilia WAS the only one who knew how to scold her and tell her off. I'm sure that nobody else was as forward as him when it came to confronting her!
If I had to compare their relationship with ONE dynamic in a trio, it would be Adeuce! Ace and Deuce don't get along all of the time and they often disagree with each other. They have a tendency to butt heads, leading to unnecessary bickering. But you can see how they look out for one another in ways that don't force them to blatantly admit that they do. I think Maleanor and Lilia are like that except they CAN admit that they care verbally, but they just don't. Comparing these two dynamics, you can see some similarities!
Maybe the reason Maleanor married Raverne is because their personalities compliment each other and don't really clash the way hers and Lilia's does! Raverne seemed to be more tolerant and quiet when it came to her shenanigans and she just loved him for being him.
Lilia, Maleanor, and Raverne had different dynamics with one another, but I don't think any of them loved the other more. But what I do know is that they're a triad. Raverne is Maleanor's consort, her eyes, and Lilia's other half as the general of the left. All three of them needed each other. And everything fell apart when Raverne went missing.
Maleanor LOVED Lilia enough to believe that he would be able to hatch Malleus out of the egg without her or Raverne. Raverne loved Lilia enough to trust him to protect Maleanor and the egg in his stead. Lilia grieved for both of them and it seems that even in the present time of Twisted Wonderland, he still DOES. Grief is the ultimate form of love after all.
LiliNorVan are a triad and it doesn't have to be romantic. Even if I see it as both romantic and platonic, you don't have to see it the way I do.
HOWEVER, I firmly believe Raverne IS involved regardless of whether you want to exclude him or not. He's Maleanor's partner AND he's Lilia's former closest companion. Of course they love him!
It sucks that he's excluded in many discussions because he's actually a major character. But I understand why people don't include him and why some people forget him. He doesn't have an official appearance. But still....
I’ve been having a lot of Raverne thoughts lately, and his canonical dynamic with Lilia and Meleanor. (Idk this isn’t a rant but like just a lot of my own feelings on the matter! (*'ā–½'*) Long post ahead) šŸ¦‡ šŸ–¤ šŸ¦ā€ā¬›
There are a LOT of things in Meleanor’s favor in terms of fanworks: she has a sprite. A physical appearance lmao. We actively see her talk with Lilia, her thought process and then her actions. We see her feelings towards Raverne, Lilia, Malleus, and humans. For the short time that she had in the story thus far, she certainly took advantage of every moment, and we got to see and hear various facets of her character- a loving mother and a ā€˜spoiled princess.’
Raverne? No sprite, no description of what he looks like, not even a silhouette. We have one confirmed quote from him, but no flashback. The little that we do know of him are from childhood stories. No one else speaks of him aside from Lilia and Meleanor, so all that we do know is a biased picture. Im very well aware of my part in this- but I’m sure it doesn’t help that he’s often connected to Crowley in the fandom- a controversial character to say the least. Not many points in his favor, not enough substance- mostly fanon crumbs.
But…what we do know of him, I feel like Lilia wouldn’t have this sort of resentment towards Raverne. NANXJD I’m just a little sad that Raverne’s relationship with Meleanor and Lilia goes a tad unnoticed, but I perfectly understand why that is in the first place for all the above reasons.
This is more of a reading from a romantic perspective, although I fully acknowledge that the ā€˜love’ Lilia had is technically ambiguous in the Japanese language- more similar to the idea of cherishing someone. But almost everything applies in a similar manner if Meleanor, Lilia, and Raverne were just platonically involved as well.
But I think the reading of the trio’s romantic dynamic is. Well. Usually polyamorous lmao. But I’ve seen a few interpretations that Lilia has some sort of resentment towards Raverne because he ā€œwonā€Meleanor. And I don’t know, I never got the vibes that the trio’s dynamic was some sort of love triangle battling for a love interest. But I’m biased because I’ve never been a huge fan of the love triangle trope, nor the implications of the ā€˜winning over’ someone- especially when Meleanor boasts more than enough agency.
Tumblr media
I do think there is some jealousy General Lilia had in his youth- but not necessarily out of romantic rivalry? šŸ¤” Like…the soup story, everyone was on Meleanor’s side with that one. Raverne seems to be painted as a kind, diplomatic, and skillful person- the type to have resolutions to a lot of problems. In EN, Raverne is described as Meleanor’s consort and problem-silver. I think this sort of jealousy is pretty normal, especially when Lilia gets the brunt of things and Raverne gets praised 🤧 That there is some difference in how they approach problems. But it’s not something that destroys the relationship, you know? This jealousy doesn’t overshadow or change the respect and love Lilia had for him- just like how Lilia’s anger towards Meleanor didn’t change the respect and love he had for her.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I find it really touching that there’s a possibility of Raverne’s words leading Lilia learning to get along with humans, preventing from killing baby Silver, learning to love humans and walk with them side by side. Because his first thought was to avenge Raverne and Meleanor, but would it be vengeance… or an action of his own grief he has yet to process?
Tumblr media
And like…in the dream world, when the darkness overtakes General Lilia. He wants Meleanor and Raverne to be there, to be reunited with the two of them once more. This scene made me feel so bittersweet, because within the darkness there’s the light and hope of reuniting Raverne and Meleanor 😭 And when he is resisting Eggleus’ lightning, Lilia cries out to Meleanor and Raverne, refusing to give up on Malleus so he could see a world that they couldn’t live to see. Like…nearly every time we’ve seen Lilia grieve, it’s always been for both Meleanor and Raverne.
Tumblr media
I also find it really interesting that whereas Lilia’s proposal to Meleanor when they were children was essentially rejected, Meleanor describes Raverne and Lilia to be ā€œcloser than a married couple,ā€ as if feelings reciprocated. It’s a really interesting contrast to describe just how close the two were.
Ahh I just wish we got to even see like a little flashback of a conversation between Raverne and Lilia, to get a better feel for their dynamic. Because ā€˜like a married couple’ gives a lot of vibes to me of how close they were- I wonder how much Lilia ever confided in him.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I don’t know Anxjdjdj!!! I just get a little sad that Raverne is just…lost to time. Left out the picture. Not considered part of the family ā€˜enough,’ no one knows what happened to him, whether he’s dead or alive. It’s often assumed he left to abandon everybody, when really there’s no indication of why. Just that he and many other envoys have disappeared without a trace. And grief Lilia feels over him is sort of not there in fanon, even though he tells Malleus stories about Raverne, he even implies Raverne to Crowley and the others at his farewell party. He remembers the little details of Raverne hiding vegetables he didn’t like under the table, or his scared face when they were children. He remembers him fondly, you know? Through scraps of an invitation, we can infer how much Raverne cared about Lilia’s future well being, and the fact Lilia never received a formal education until Night Raven College.
Tumblr media
Because there is this repeated ā€˜promise’ that Lilia holds close to his heart, that Raverne made him promise to make sure Meleanor and Malleus were safe. It feels like such an intimate conversation, and builds up so much of the trust we know between the three. Like Lilia was part of Raverne’s family too. Not a replacement for himself, but someone that he knew could look after their family if he were to die or disappear. Meleanor was the same way- entrusting Malleus to Lilia, because Malleus was a child of ā€˜their beloved blood.’
Actually now that I’m writing this, I find it so interesting how Lilia was shocked when Meleanor entrusted Eggleus to Lilia, even though he was already aware of the promise he made to Raverne. The idea that both Raverne and Meleanor loved and trusted him so much to raise their child…I think it’s really amazing that there is a mutual acknowledgment of how much they loved Lilia. They’ve must have talked about these possibilities behind the scenes.
ANDJDJD sorry for the long ramble. I like Raverne too much 🤣🤣🤣 In the end this all probably means nothing, and of course it’s up to everyone how they feel about ships and headcanons and such 🫶 I just found it a little ironic I guess that when this update dropped on JP, floods of bi and polyamorous posts came out, only for Raverne to be assumed he abandoned and hated everybody to be evil like what 😭
I think it just hurts that…there is this concept of Lilia being a complete replacement of someone he loved, when really he is own individual in the trio’s dynamic, just like how Raverne is his own, just like how Meleanor is her own. I think being a parent or a partner does let necessarily mean it’s just two, you know? Sometimes it takes a village to raise a child, or there is unconventional parental roles, or unconventional romantic dynamics. TWST does not shy from straying from the ā€˜nuclear family’ dynamic- every student has their own unique background. So seeing Raverne stripped of any sort of parental ties he had to Malleus, or any romantic connection to Meleanor, or his close relationship with Lilia…it feels a little sad t゚(ļ¾ŸĀ“Ļ‰`゚)゚t
>_< I hope none of this sounded angry or rude or anything…I’m not used to making these sorts of posts, so I’m a bit nervous. I didn’t know how else to express these feelings about this dynamic. If it is not your cup of tea, please feel free to ignore- I may have interpreted things wrong anyway 🫔
I’d be interested to hear others thoughts on this topic of the triošŸ¦ā€ā¬› thank you for reading if you got this far \(//āˆ‡//)\

fellow + gidel ssr time fellas
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(This bastard took an entire soft pity :(( but hey, I got a Dorm Uniform Jade dupe and finally FINALLY my first Dorm Uniform Floyd on the way, so I ain't too pressed about it.) RISE UP FELLOWIVES NOW’S YOUR TIME
***Character profile, voice lines, Groovy, and vignette spoilers below the cut!!***
First off! His official profile, coffin, and candy (Fox Candy):
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(School) Grade/Class: None
Birthday: May 17 (Taurus)
Age: 26
Height: 181 cm
Dominant Hand: Right
Hometown: ???
Club: None
Best Subject: Mathematics
Hobby: Watching theater
Dislikes: Spending money ahead of time
Favorite Food: Apples
Least Favorite Food: Potatoes
Special Skill: Sewing
We finally get confirmation of Fellow’s age! (He had previously said in Playful Land that he was 20-something.)
I love that Fellow’s best subject is math Deuce is jealous/j; it makes so much sense given his background. Since he is impoverished, he has probably had to learn how to budget smart and stretch his resources thin to get by. (His dislike being spending money ahead of time is related; he must like the security of having extra money on hand in case something comes up.) It also makes sense given the character Fellow is twisted from + his own lore, as Honest John is shown to read a book upside down (so reading is not a strong suit) and Fellow has emphasized he sees the importance in practical skills (such as math).
OMG, his favorite and least favorite foods???? 😭 Playful Land has apple (core) flavored candies and popcorn… and again, this is a reference to Honest John and Pinocchio’s first encounter! He takes the kid’s apple and eats it, lol cnsvwiwguwkw Potatoes being his disliked food… Maybe it’s because it’s the ā€œpoorā€ man’s vegetable? Because potatoes are so versatile, keep for a long time, and are filling because of the starch content, Fellow might resort to eating them a lot, so perhaps as a result he got sick of the taste.
Tumblr media
What I find most interesting about Fellow’s profile are his listed hobby and special skill. He largely comes off as despicable and a slimy scammer (which he is, don’t get me wrong), but we can see different sides to him in these details—both the inner child that had his dreams trampled but remains hopeful about the future and the big brother figure/guardian to a child. Gidel is actually formally referred to in Fellow’s profile as his (non-blood related) brother, which made my heart melt 🄺 TWST must know I have a thing for beastmen who act shitty but are actually excellent mentors to the children/j
Fellow enjoys watching theater. It’s a way of transporting you away temporarily to new worlds with crazy stories and emotional performances. When words aren’t enough, you sing. And when singing isn’t enough, you dance. It’s an area that’s so full of life and joy, at least from the audience’s perspective. I’m thinking that watching theater must have been a form of escapism for Fellow, especially with how accessible it is (think of like street performances). Watching theater might also serve a dual purpose of teaching Fellow how to come across as amicable and friendly, which says a LOT about his character. He’s resourceful and able to learn from unconventional sources, then is able to apply those skills to real world situations.
Fellow’s special skill being sewing is surprisingly very cute! If you’ve taken one look at his and Gidel’s designs, we may have already spotted some of his handiwork. There’s mismatched fabric patches on their clothes!! The stitches look so clean too. The patterns not matching is probably because Fellow just used whatever scraps he was able to get his hands on, but I also like to imagine that he tried to make the best of the situation by incorporating the mismatched fabrics in a fun way (like the diamonds in his pants).
Next, can we talk about the composition of that GROOVY????
Tumblr media
It’s another reference to the same Pinocchio scene! Fellow’s holding his book like Honest John did and it looks like he’s trying to teach Gidel the alphabet from words scratched on the sidewalk. Notice how the C is written backwards too šŸ˜‚
And Gidel!!! Pencil and pad of paper in hand, he looks so interested to learn (something which was hinted at in Playful Land). Gideon in the film is also shown with a pen and pad of paper, scribbling down nonsense as Fellow pretends to diagnose Pinocchio.
Tumblr media
Gidel glances up at Fellow with an expression of admiration. I love how wholesome their relationship is depicted as, it leaves a warm feeling in the heart.
The framing of this Groovy is very interesting. We have Fellow to our left—a direction has historically been associated with evil (in Italian, the word for left is even sinistra, as if to imply something sinister) and in the darkness. Gidel is the one to our right and in the light. It presents Fellow to us as someone who has given up on his dreams—but not completely, since we see some light touching his hat, gloves, and highest features + he is currently teaching Gidel and still has dreams of opening his own school. Gidel is shown in the light because he’s still a naive child that doesn’t understand how the world works. His dreams haven’t been destroyed yet, and there’s hope for him to have a better life since Fellow is looking after him and instructing him.
CHECK THIS OUT, GIDEL FOLLOWS FELLOW TO CLASS LIKE MARY'S LAMB OR SOMETHING????? Gidel pops out from under the desk or out of/behind Fellow's cape! Gidel also joins Fellow on the homescreen.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Some of Fellow's expressions are so priceless... For example, look at him in Flight! There's an unsure face and a little bead of sweat. (He makes a lot of pathetic accompanying sounds too, lol) Flying takes magic, so he's probably not confident or powerful enough to maintain flight for long stretches of time--though when he does nail it, he looks ultra smug.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
ADGKVAVFOOEFIEQOfsl HIS SHOCKED FACE
How uncool, Fellow-san...
Tumblr media
His attack sprites are very similar/identical to what we saw in Playful Land--Fellow's just playing for the opposite team now.
Gidel hops into battle to assist, so I guess they count as the first two-character card. It's been a while since I've seen these animations, but I think I can appreciate them a lot more now. I'm noticing new little things like how Fellow adds a bunch of showmanship into his attack, little flashy flourishes and even presenting Gidel with his arms splayed, as if welcoming a star to the spotlight. The attention to detail really is crazy for these.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
If you want to read his voice lines in full, you can find an excellent fan translation of them here! I'll just be remarking on things I noticed while combing through the voice lines myself:
First off: bro calls himself Fellow Hones-SAMA???????? OKAY, KING 😭 Love that confidence you got goin' on there...
bifabsiyofbefe Love how he just reads a textbook and then flat-out admits he has no clue what the heck it's saying. Hey, honesty is a virtue.
Ace šŸ’€ He has the balls to play a prank on an adult... I kind of want to know what the prank was, but at the same time I feel like I should be shaking my head and telling him off for doing it in the first place. I do appreciate that Ace being shitty brought out Fellow's true personality there for a second though, I live for it when Fellow gets real steamed and starts shouting that the NRC students are brats or that they should drop out if they have no motivation in school.
The way Fellow automatically clocked that Kalim is way too trusting and would surely be in danger even if he wasn't the one to come for him... Fellow, watch your back. Jamill WILL come for your sketchy ass for what you did back then.
I didn't find anything super interesting in Fellow's comments about Ortho, but I do think it reveals that there is value in him coming to school. It's only at NRC where Fellow can see such a curious thing like Ortho, and that speaks to the value of really going out there and being exposed to different things. That's part of Lilia's own growth arc too, and a large part of why he now spreads that same rhetoric.
Fellow remarks that Ramshackle is "pretty sweet", which means one of two things: either this is the refurbished post-book 6 dorm OR it's still the shabby pre-book 6 dorm, but since Fellow and Gidel have never really had their own stable housing, even run-down old Ramshackle seems like a massive upgrade.
Fellow and Gidel must have been so happy to see that lunch at NRC is free and served buffet style (so there's no limits to how much you can take). On top of that, they got dead chefs from 5 star restaurants staffing the kitchen! Those two really hit the jackpot, I hope they eat well.
AVUSDGVUADOVIAISDBIDAS THE DIALOGUE IMPLYING FELLOW CASUALLY BYPASSED THE SCHOOL'S BARRIER AND OTHER SECURITY MEASURES... So Chenya-core of him, really. Fellow may not have magical might, but he's seriously street smart to have found a way in like he has.
Small detail but I appreciate how Fellow has lines which call attention to Gidel. It doesn't just remind us that Gidel is there too, but it also demonstrates to us that Fellow actively tries to include him in the conversation despite Gidel's muteness (a condition which may lead others to outright ignoring him or talking down to him).
LAST THING (though it's not in MysteryShopTL's linked post): in his birthday greeting to the player, Fellow says that both you and him don't have talent for magic, so you should get along. I didn't think the game would acknowledge the player and Fellow's similarity in that sense, so it was very nice to be proven wrong.
And to finish off this post (which ended up being way more massive than I thought it would be), a quick summary of the vignettes!!
In vignette 1, Fellow and Gidel are putting on a street performance in Silk City. Fellow collects fees from the onlookers and then tries to milk more out of them by spinning a story about how Gidel is a puppet that can walk without strings. Buuut Gidel moves like a normal living being and sneezes, which ruins the ruse and leads to the crowd getting mad at them. The duo run off, but Fellow reveals that while the locals were looking at Gidel, he used magic to steal some of their precious metals and jewelry. In the next vignette, Fellow and Gidel have moved on to Fairest City. It's said that they live a nomadic lifestyle and hop from place to place, never staying for too long in any one location because word of their scams may spread and cause a situation where they cannot reasonably make money through their lies. (Cute detail: Fellow listens to Gidel's suggestions on where they should go next and even praises Gidel's smarts.) This time Fellow's trying to auction off a magestone that he claims will allow anyone who holds it to use magic. The people of Fairest City don't believe him and give him the cold shoulder, which upsets Fellow (since he really hates it when others look down on him). He ends up using his UM to get his audience to be more pliant and manages to sell the magestone for a pretty penny. At the end of this vignette, Fellow drops a line about how he and Gidel are so free, how they can do whatever they want since they have nothing holding them back. I really love that thought~
AND IF YOU THOUGHT VIGNETTES 1 AND 2 WERE FUNNY HAHA TEEHEE CUTE, WAIT UNTIL YOU SEE VIGNETTE 3 šŸ’€ VIGNETTE 3 FELT LIKE IT WAS A TARGETTED SNIPE ON MY HEART
The setting is Sunrise City! Fellow and Gidel are being chased off by an angry person they tried to rob. It looks like they're unsuccessful today and will be going hungry. Gidel tries opening a random can of OIL in search of food, so Fellow scolds him and tells him to leave it be. Apparently Gidel does this a lot when he's hungry (just grabbing random shit and trying to eat it), even though Fellow has tried teaching him how to read. THIS IS WHAT THE CONTEXT OF THE GROOVY IS, FELLOW SQUATS DOWN (like we literally see his 2D model lowering) AND DRAWS IT ON THE GROUND FOR GIDEL TO SEE. O is for orange, I is for ice-cream, and L is for laugh. Fellow realizes that L is the only non-food word, but he couldn't come up with anything else. I wonder if like... this is some common game they do to distract from hunger. They have to imagine the food they could have but can't. And L being "laugh"? That can't be a coincidence. Fellow could have used any other L word as an example, even if he couldn't come up with a food that starts with L. It makes me think he picked "laugh" on purpose in an effort to lift Gidel's spirits and to try and distract from their circumstances.
Aaaah, as I was saying! Fellow gets upset that he doesn't know as much as your average 26-year old would since he never went to school. Gidel seems to sense his frustrations and reassures him with a pat, which reenergizes Fellow. He says he'll try to find some food, so Gidel should focus on making a fire. While gathering wood to burn, they come across a job posting by a shady rich man that Fellow and Gidel supposedly did another job for in the past. Fellow suggests that they check out the job and if they don't like it then they can leave. ADSKJBBSLDIADBLUBAB These are the events leading up to Playful Land... meaning that Fellow’s showmanship is wasn’t something he developed at the amusement park, but as a general coping and survival mechanism to get by day-to-day.
I uh. May or may not have cried a little at Fellow and Gidel's really wholesome interaction 😭 I MEAN YEAH OF COURSE I'M A SUCKER FOR BIG BROTHER CHARACTERS (and we certainly see that in how Fellow scolds Gidel and looks out for his wellbeing, both in the vignettes and in Playful Land) but also???????? ? ? ? ? ?? ?????? ? ? ? ?? I love Love LOVE how Gidel is shown to be supportive of Fellow as well. Fellow as the older person, the adult, and the able-bodied one of the duo is pulling most of the weight when it comes to getting resources and handling communication. However, Gidel plays an important role in their dynamic as well. He's the heart and the emotional support that Fellow needs when he's down in the dumps and being hard on himself. Gidel not only serves as a "reason" for Fellow to work hard (to support a child), but he also gives Fellow motivation and hope that tomorrow can be another day. YOU CAN REALLY TELL HOW MUCH THESE TWO CARE AND LOOK OUT FOR ONE ANOTHER OTL
OOOOOOOoooOOooOOGGHHHH MY HEART *clutches it* I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE, I CAN'T HANDLE THE ONII-SAMA OF IT ALL

Cordelia Crowley- Twisted from Odile, the Black Swan
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I was thinking about dad!Crowley the other day, and I thought it would be fun to design an OC who was Crowley's daughter- around Najma's age (*⁰▿⁰*) Cordelia went through lots of redesigns in personal drafts- but now I feel confident to introduce her 😌Details and backstory below the cut! šŸ–¤šŸ¦¢
A huge thank you to @ai-kan1 for the beautiful templates! šŸ’–šŸ™
Cordelia was raised as an aristocrat in TWST's 19th century society, taking pride in her magic and status. Having inherited her father's high levels of blot production, Cordelia could practiced very little magic before her blot levels became too high. She quickly fell behind her peers, who went on to practice advanced magic. In an effort to push herself and become someone worthy' in magical society, Cordelia studied magic outside of her arranged classes, even if tutors and her father alike warned her to not overdo it. It was a cycle of pushing herself too far, but also growing more powerful. She grew proud of her newly found abilities, far too proud for her own good.
Cordelia's memories of her life before are fuzzy- all she's known for several hundred years is blot and her ghostly form. But she knows she eventually Overblotted. In a time period where blot was poorly understood, it was believed there was no saving anyone who succumbed to an Overblot- their souls in agony for eternity if their Phantoms overcame them.
And so, Crowley did what he had to do, for the sake of his little swan 🦢
(He mercy-killed her im sorry)
ANYWAY, Cordelia's Unique Magic is "Pas De Deux." allowing her to temporarily swap her appearance, voice, etc with the another person of her choosing once. Most intriguingly, when she and the swapped person looked at their own hands or look in the mirror, they looked the same as ever. Yet everyone else would be fooled, seeing them as a completely different person. This effect is cast on both Cordelia and the person of her choosing. This spell does not swap personality and mannerisms, so if Cordelia chooses a target for her UM, she studies their mannerisms intensely in order to create a flawless copy.
I imagine she's completed NRC's curriculum over and over again, and has a wide array of knowledge of all sorts of magical studies. She prides herself for being an accomplished lady, still continuing to study all manner of languages, dances, arts, etc in order to better herself. Cordelia must temper herself with her magic, as even in her ghostly form, she retains remnants of her Overblotted self.
Cordelia is stuck in her old ways, adhering to the social etiquette similar to the Regency era. In the ghost realm, she mingles with others who died in a similar era, so despite her long existence, she's very behind on the times. She visits NRC mostly for Crowley and the Ramshackle ghosts (she considers them the equivalent as grandfathers,) but otherwise, she refuses to talk to any NRC boy if she doesn't have a chaperone accompanying her. I think in general though, she's not a huge fan of socializing with boys (šŸ³ļøā€šŸŒˆ)
Cordelia is on neutral terms with most on NRC's campus due to her limited interactions. However, she is rather mortified that Crowley is not well-liked or respected here. It's far from the treatment she remembered from way back when! (She genuinely doesn’t see a problem with Crowley’s behavior BAHXJD) It makes her fret over not only her father's reputation, but her own as well. She puts a lot of weight in what others think of her, especially post-Overblot- although she pretends it doesn’t.
However, she is not afraid to stand out in terms of opulence, having a similar taste in clothing to Crowley. Cordelia wears gloves to disguise the heavy blot markings on them. I imagine her parasol is her equivalent of a magestone pen- she uses it for spellcasting.
Some last little details-
•Her birthday is March 4th- the premiere date of Swan Lake
•Her demise is a tie to Odette, who in the original story, was cursed to be a swan forever and thus committed suicide alongside her partner
•Cordelia being twisted from Odile is also just to imply Crowley as the equivalent of Rothbart (the evil sorcerer who cursed Odette and is father to Odile) andjdjf
•Cordelia's name is a nod to Cordelia from Shakespeare's King Lear, the tragic heroine and favored daughter of the king. The character is banished by her father, and ultimately hanged by the end of the play. Apparently, this name means 'heart/daughter of the sea.
•Her unique magic 'Pas de deux' is named after a famed duet seen in classical ballet, often symbolizing the grand love story between the two dance partners. Two of the most notable examples of this dance is the White Swan’s Pas de deux, and the Black Swan's Pas de deux.
•Cordelia’s Unique Magic is also just a heavy reference to the plot of Swan Lake, where Odile is disguised as Odette, and tricks the prince to confessing his love to her. It is typical for Odile and Odette to be played by the same dancer in ballet, becoming one of the most demanding roles a ballerina could have. This demand is also referenced by Cordelia’s tendency to push herself beyond her limits (to the point of Overblot) in an effort to be accomplished.

Sobbing......the fact that Kalim would never deny his own friends.....the fact that we'll always be his friend....
Tumblr media
He's so sweet......I will never not love him
SSR Kalim Al-Asim - Qasr Sultanate School Uniform Voice Lines
Qasr Sultanate Kalim does not have a vignette.
Tumblr media
When Summoned:Ā Hey, hey, you okay? Hold on, I'll make you some cold and delicious water!
Summon Line:Ā Everyone says that the Wise Ruler of the Oasis was filled with curiosity, and was a generous spirit. His super fluffy beard was real neat, tooļ½ž
Groooovy!!:Ā I don't want some fake Jamil. I'm gonna become actual friends with the real guy!
Home:Ā This uniform's pretty cool, too!
Swap Looks: Woah, my head feels so exposed!
Home Idle 1:Ā I kinda really like this uniform, so maybe I'll make one for me to normally wear, too. What about you? Wouldn't it be great to match?
Home Idle 2:Ā This kind of headwear is really popular in the Scalding Sands. It's said both the Wise Sultan and the Sorcerer of the Sands wore one like it.
Home Idle 3:Ā In this dream, I was a part of the symphonic band club. Performing as a huge group was great and all, but it's just not the same without Lilia and Cater!
Home Idle - Login:Ā The school in my dream was a pretty great place. Maybe I should ask my dad to actually make it here in the real world!
Home Idle - Groovy:Ā I'm gonna do my best so me and Jamil can be friends in the real world, too! That's my goal: to be best of friends who can talk about anything with each other!
Home Tap 1:Ā I wonder if we can get a statue of the Wise Sultan in a water fountain back at our dorm... Or maybe, we can just increase the number of fountains? Hmm, which should I do? I can't decide.
Home Tap 2: I hear the Wise Sultan really doted on his daughter. I really care about my family too.
Home Tap 3:Ā Being here at Night Raven College was the first time I ever attended school. This might've been a dream, but it was kinda fun being at another school.
Home Tap 4: You're saying I was still pretty friendly even in my dream? Well, duh, it doesn't matter when, where, or how; you and me will always be friends!
Home Tap 5:Ā You like my earrings? So, actually, it's designed to look like magic carpets! I really like them!
Home Tap - Groovy:Ā I really liked how we kinda got to have a picnic out on those rugs and under the parasols. We should all do that again!
Duo: [KALIM]: Let's raise the roof, Rook! [ROOK]: As you wish, Kalim-kun!
