Ok so you know how in some narrative games, often there are special events where the characters get all dressed-up & ready to party?

If the player character wants to join, the player has to pay with a premium currency - which can be bought with real cash. The only free options were either choose to skip or wearing a plain, versatile outfit for the event.

IDK if Yuu/MC were participating during the Halloween event, but the students from all 7 dorms went all-out with their costumes - excellent craftsmanship, fine detailing, scary make-up, etc.

But if Yuu/MC did join, then I imagine their costume would be a simple white sheet with 2 small round holes. Underneath that is just whatever outfit they happen to wear.

What about Kal?

(Just curious, this is something that's been on my mind for quite some time.)

Uh. Do you. Not know how gameplay in twst works? TWST is, primarily, a Gacha. You don't pay to participate in the events. Events just come and go, and if you miss one, you're out of luck for at least another year potentially. You pay for in-game currency to pull cards, that's it. Then you use the cards to grind for other in-game materials, and during events, those are usually what helps advance the event story, I believe, and pull more cards from said event, but you don't spend anything to get in the event in the first place.

And, also, Yuu is always participating in events. That's how they happen in the first place. And that's exactly what happened in the first Halloween event. 😅 Yuu ended up wearing a repurposed sheet at the end of the event as a costume.

Anyways, for Kal, I have IDEAS for the first Halloween event 👀 I'd rather not spoil, but I do have a picrew of sort of what their first Halloween event outfit looks like. The picrew itself no longer exists, which, sad. But image below 👀

bonus: if you explain why (in the tags) <3

[oblivioussempai]

Why did you give the last of your food to that poorly disguised mimic? You were finally at peace with letting go, but now this odd thing won’t leave you alone and is even turning itself into various items in an attempt to aid you.

[oblivioussempai]

Tried my hand at making some more "official" looking profiles for my babs. <3

Do you think when Malleus gets his annual physical health exam, they make him transform back into a dragon so they could get accurate readings.

"Mr. Draconia, you're only 19852 kilograms while your ideal is 20000. You're a bit underweight. Is there a reason why you've been eating less recently?"

He couldn't admit that he'd been eating 🌸's ant-sized commoner meals recently instead of his usual three platefuls of pure protein and some smattering of his dietician's suggested veggie amount.

Also if he goes to Mr. Zigvolt for his dental appointment, does the guy need to venture through his mouth like he's inspecting a cave? How do doctors get his X-ray? I have so many questions.

🐉: "Did you know that dragons can grow their teeth back no matter how many times we lose them?"

🌸: "Really?! Why is your body so convenient... Oh but why do you go to the dentist though?"

🐉: "While it's true that our teeth grow back, it's actually rather inconvenient to lose one. Can you imagine, a prince or a queen addressing the nation with a missing tooth in front? How embarrassing would that be? So we take good care of our teeth anyway."

🌸: "Oh yeah, that makes sense."

Genuinely thought I already uploaded this one ages ago, whoops! So...uh...here you go, I guess? For the final(?) body-swap, I decided that the staff get to join the fun this time around! Except Crowley. No fun for him. Birdman must suffer.

Bouquet of Evil 3: Tokyo Drift! A MC/Yuu Gift Exchange, the third!

(We'll start with Yuuta in the bottom left and go clockwise. Click on the image for better detail bc Tumblr image compression.)

Yuuta, the sweet summer child that he is, is absolutely delighted to be hosting a gift exchange. The box of homemade macaroons from Frederic was already perfect (and delicious) but the adorably goofy shrimp keychain was just the cherry on top.

For his part, Frederic has ascended in pure joy. While it might be a tad stereotypical to give an entire wheel of cheese and a few baguettes to a French person, Yumimi's gifting instincts seem to be spot on. She has easily shot to the top of the list of Frederic's favorite people at NRC.

Yair is just plain cozy. You can never go wrong with a handmade scarf, especially one with such a cute little design on it. Its a bit nostalgic actually. Yuu(pawn) is surprisingly good at knitting such tiny details.

No one is sure who may or may not have been the one to sneak in a few cat toys just to mess with Grim, but Yair certainly has no problem using one.

Yuu(pawn) is just vibing. The super squishy teddy bear from Yair was a nice surprise and Yumimi sharing her gift was an even nicer one. Honestly, they're just glad to have a chance to relax and breathe before they get swamped in the inevitable chaos of NRC again.

Yumimi is also just vibing. A box of assorted gift chocolates with flavors from various different countries in Twisted Wonderland was a surprisingly considerate gift from Yuu(snow). It is quite a lot of chocolate though, so she's happy to share some with Yuu(pawn) and is saving some for a certain green-haired croc boi.

Yuu(snow) is....sliiiiiightly concerned about Obi's mental health. Giving a bottle of blot is certainly an, uh, unique gift and one that's rare/difficult to get, but is also just a teensy bit alarming. They're...not exactly sure what they're supposed to do with this, but they'll find a use for it somehow? Is someone whispering something?

Obi is absolutely jazzed to be here. No contest, happiest he's ever been. Yuuta was nice enough to offer a homemade Japanese meal, treating the food prep like Gordan Ramsey himself was judging, and Obi jumped on that opportunity as fast as possible. Seriously, can Yuuta make Obi's meals from now on? Please??

Links/Profiles for all of the Yuus, same rotation as above.

Yuuta Mito: the canon Prefect for the Octavinelle chapter of the official TWST manga! He seems to be a gentle and hardworking young man who is also a fantastic cook and takes his cooking very seriously. I'm a bit curious to see how he clashes with Azul and the Tweels.

Frederic: a tired little French gremlin whose unhealthy addiction to putting an entire sugar pot in their drinks from the Monstro Lounge drives Azul absolutely nuts. They've somehow become besties with Rook and Rollo through sheer shared French Vibes(tm) to the complete terror of everyone else and spends the rest of their time hiding hanging out in Idia's room. Belongs to @r-aindr0p

Yair: Don't really know much about this child, but she has clearly already Seen Some Shit even before ever falling out of the NRC coffin, so she's mostly handles all of the chaos around with complete deadpan acceptance. Really, really just wants to go home. Belongs to @mothoka

Yuu(pawn): this poor shy child has a really rough go of it. There's not a ton of info on them but they do definitely get taken advantage of a lot. Poor bab. :( Belongs to @pawnyao

Yumimi: I swear, she has, like, all the braincells at NRC. And she's also somehow the calm collected type who is so unflappable by the nonsense going on around her, especially Malleus-not-understanding-humans nonsense and just...all of Sebek's everything that she is managing to seduce(?) Sebek by annoying him with her distinct lack of annoyance. Belongs to @ryllen

Yuu(snow): the best way to describe this person is that one character in every cartoon show who's just doing the most random cursed inexplicable things in the background while the rest of the cast are working through their own storyline. They're the cryptid of NRC, they know it, and I love them for it. Belongs to @snowberryc

Obi: he's more than a gremlin child, he's an outright MENACE. He pokes at Malleus and Leona seemingly for the heck of it, collects blot, has managed to find a way to revert it to magical energy despite being nonmagical, and in at least one continuity straight up punched Malmal in the face so. Yeah, unhinged gremlin child, I love him. (Sidenote, I saw his Fairy Gala design and my brain just went YES. That one. Dress him in that one.) Belongs to @kimikitti
