He’s in movie appreciation(or film research)!  I wasn’t expecting that. Maybe that’s why Vil was able to get Idia to build a bike for a movie in Epel’s Dorm Uniform story.

Here’s the coffin icons for Yulise(feathered wings) and Yulie(butterfly).

[rubypearl31]

These are templates of all the TWST coffin icons. The pattern on the Savanaclaw and Scarabia ones aren’t official because the icons for them don’t have any distinct symbols that all of them share. So I just used some patterns that I saw on their dorm uniforms. Because I felt bad that theirs didn’t have a patterned template. The Ramshackle one is for the Captain Hook based one me and @wolflover10 made. I wanted the patterns and symbols to look like nautical rope and fairy dust.

I haven’t posted in a while. Because I honestly just haven’t been in the mood for anything. But I am making coffin icons for my OCs and just thought I’d post this.

Happy Birthday to @rubypearl31. Sorry I completed it so late. Front row left to right are OCs Yulise, Yulie (birthday girl), and Yu. Ortho and Sebek (who stubbornly came) are a couple of the guests. Yu stopping Grim from taking cake, while Yulie stops Yu.

I used assets made by @rubypearl31 for the background, rosette ribbon, and tie broach. The second image is the Yulie’s personal birthday pin.

So, I've been thinking about this for a long while now. Where is Azul's family's restaurant? I want to assume it would be in the Coral Sea, but that doesn't make sense when you consider his favorite dish. He loves fried chicken and Floyd likes takoyaki. These are both dishes that can't be made underwater. And supposedly, Azul's family often served fried food to him. That means they fed it to him somewhere dry. So I think the restaurant has to be, at least partially, somewhere above water. Which would make sense because Morgana's, Ursula's sister, cave was above water.

Obviously, Floyd could have had Takoyaki when he visited the surface. Only Jade's favorite, carpaccio, makes sense because it is served raw. But I don't think any fried foods could be served in the ocean.

Also, I imagine underwater restaurants would need to serve things in tubing or wrapped. Because I think underwater physics would make plate and table dining difficult. Especially when many foods float.

I finally found these coffin icons in color! I knew they were in the Magical Archives book but then I would need to scan them. I actually found this image on a site that listed the pin collection: here. I just rendered it to have a transparent BG.

I needed this to make some templates for my OCs.

Twisted Wonderland Sprite Eyes type 4 5 6

For the picrew, I plan to only use 2 or 3 of the eye types. I’m not sure which ones I want to use though.

Waccha Primagi! Love/Smile Element Theory

So the latest opening for Waccha Primagi reveals Matusri’s elemental coord.

Now, on the official twitter, they just posted the new makeup for this coord, and it was called the Love Element. So I’m going to assume that the element Matusri awakens is the Love Element. But I noticed that this dress looks really similar to Mirai’s(Kiratto Prichan) style of dress.

So I really hope think that the Love Element “spirit” might be Mirai. Since the trend has been past Pretty Series stars appearing as characters that support the girls or are famous idols. Aside from Yui who just ran a rice field(she was still an amazing idol) and Laala who was Kuma. But I think that set up was a reference to Yui sleeping in the rice cooker in Idolland.

However, this also means that the coord that they had been slowly revealing for the past few months, was not the coord for the 6th element. Despite the fact that it the coord parts were called the “Smile Element”. SO, what is this coord?

I have two theories about this coord. The first being that this will be the actual element’s coord. My reasoning, Mirai is probably the Love Elemental. And this is the coord she will wear when she appears. Just like Yui, Laala, and Mia’s coords they wore when they made cameo’s, this coord is also a Prism Stone Coord. Naru wore Dear Crown because she was it’s manager in King of Prism and Kiratto Prichan. Aira was in a team, so she wore Anju’s brand. But this coord also has a smiliar style to the flower shop coord(from season 1) and the diamond friend coord.

And “smile”, from the name of the coord, was always important to Mirai’s character. Mirai has the “kira smile” bit that she always uses to make people smile(she did this for a crying baby and a sad Emo). Also, the main song for Kiratto Prichan season 2, was called Diamond Smile. Which was the season she beat everyone in the Jewel Selection. So the coord being called smile element, makes sense if Mirai was the one who will ear it. It would be called “Smile Element” if

As for the other theory, I think the Smile Element coord could be the coord that will be the one that the girls will compete for. Mainly because of this end scene from the opening

The stage matches the coord. And it looks like Matsuri and Jennifer are competing(propbably to get back the coord and Waccha she took).

These are the patterns I made for the savanaclaw scarves and shirts. They’re really useful since I never want to spend a bunch of time drawing them. I didn’t make the full collar pattern of the shirts. There’s another pattern that starts and the collarbone. But it’s barely seen.

This is interesting but the ghosts likely didn't die there. All the other ghost on campus, like the ones that run the cafeteria, were likely recruited to work there. Like the ghost chefs from the cooking challenge, who were professionals from 5-star restaurants in their former lives(according to the headmaster during Home of Spice challenge).  I don’t even think most of them are former students.

The ghosts only gather on Sages Isle because of the large amount of "magic energy" that exists there. The Isle is one of the few places that they can materialize in(dwarf mines being another). At least that’s what they explain during the Halloween event(I think it was Lilia who explained). I think the headmaster just lets ghost stay because he doesn’t have to pay the staff through normal means. Though this is a double edged sword, because as seen in the second Halloween event and Ghost bride event, the ghosts are not bound by laws. So if they rebel, the headmaster can’t do much. He can’t cut off wages or have them arrested.

As for the 3 who live at Ramshackle, they have only mentioned they were once students at the school. Never did they say they didn’t live until adulthood. It’s not like their souls are “attached” to school becuase they do more than just “haunt”. In Ace’s alchemy card, Ruggie mentions how they were selling Mandragora’s on main street. They are probably there because it’s one of the few places a spirit can have “life after death”.

I also can’t imagine the school having a large death count. If it was the result of overblot, the students ‘spirit/soul’ wouldn’t be at the NRC campus but underneath S.T.Y.X. And while many boarding schools have urban legends about deaths on campus, these are usually fake.

I feel like we forget the ghost in Ramshackle very likely aren't adults. They were students. They lived in the dorm. Why would men who died in old age have such strong regrets and unfinished business to relentlessly haunt their highschool dorm? They would have likely died on school grounds in their youth. Meaning the Ramshackle ghost are also teenagers.

Imagine Yuu having a heart to heart with them all when it was clear they would not leave.

"Why are you guys haunting here anyway?"

"I don't know where I would go." The chubby ghost replied. "I...I died before my mom did. I don't know when she passed, I wouldn't know where to look for her."

"I don't want to go to the Netherworld." The tall skinny one replied. "I have the opposite problem. I know for a fact my father is waiting for me, and I would rather die again than see him."

"This is the only real home I've ever had." The smallest ghost replied, not wanting to elaborate more.

Ramshackle, the dorm for lost children.

I finished the next part of the fanfic! This is the art related to this fanfic, NRC Candy Debacle . Look at Ruggie trying to be all sneaky.

TWST Fanfic - Night Raven College Candy Debacle: Part 3

Part 1 | Part 2

My OCs appearing:

Lluvia Earnesto - A Grizzly bear beastgirl. She is a hardworking girl who sometimes is too headstrong.

Did Savanaclaw’s Housewarden just ask for paperwork?

    It was a typical after school day at Savanaclaw. Some students were lounging in the pool area, a few were out in the spelldrive field practicing, and anyone not in the dorm was likely at a makeup class or a club. Which is why Lluvia, who was heading to her room to study, was confused by the sudden smell of cake. She knew it wasn’t from one of the birthday parties. While there was at least one every week, there wasn’t one scheduled for the day. As she ascended the wooden stairway onto the second floor, the smell got stronger. 

    “Hey, Lluvia,” Ruggie greeted as he rushed past. In his mouth was a lollipop and in his hands was a box that had the word “SAMPLE” across the top.

“Ruggie, is the Housewarden’s birthday coming up?” Lluvia asked before he could get far.

“Hm,” he looked back, confused by the sudden question. “No, his birthday is in summer.” He clarified. It was only the start of Febuary, so it was a long way off. But Ruggie was even more confused by the grizzly bear beast-girls pensive look at his answer. 

After a brief moment, Lluvia gathered her thoughts and made a disappointed face. “Then Leona is having you prep for it now?” Her dropping of the respectful ‘housewarden’ title was an indicator that she was disappointed in the lazy lion again. 

“What?” Ruggie didn’t get what Lluvia was thinking until he followed her gaze. “O-oh, this isn’t cake,” he was met with the first year's dubious look.

“If not…” but before she finished that thought, “Then it is for Leona?” she asked, after reading between the lines.

Ruggie’s ears twitched, and for a brief moment he regretted walking past the one room in the entire dorm that housed female students. ‘Ugh, bear beastmen and their noses.’ If it had been any of the others he may have been fine. But Lluvia was one of the rare “honor students” in the dorm. “You could say. It’s just something for the Housewarden’s approval.”

Lluvia was surprised to hear Leona had actually done Housewarden duties. Then she realized that if it wasn't cake, it was still a food sample. And from what she could tell, it was something sweet and pastry like. “So-”

“Hey, Vie, Ruggie! Are those the lollipop samples?” Jack walked up to the two.

“Lollipop samples?” Lluvia asked Jack as he stopped next to them.

This time, the question actually left Ruggie with a surprised expression. But it was brief, as the tenacious Hyena was quick witted. “Where'd you hear about that from Jack?” He asked, but he had a good feeling he knew who told him.

“Hm. Yulise told me about it at the last practice.” Jack answered. 

“I didn’t hear about that.” Lluvia was in the same track and field club as Jack and Yulise. And she was close to Yulise after having spent the beginning of the school year living at Ramshackle with her. So she was only a little surprised that Yulise told him something she didn’t tell her.

“It was when we were paired for practice.” Jack clarified. 

“Oh. But what do you mean samples?” She asked while glancing back at Ruggie who looked ready to leave the conversation.

“Well, you know how Ramshackle finally got their own lollipops at Mr. S’s shop. Apparently the company that makes them sends flavor samples before they start production.” Jack explained, while reiterating the explanation he got before, but he noticed Lluvia still looked confused. “Does that make sense?”

“I get that, but why would our dorm get samples?” She asked as she noticed Ruggie was about to head down the stairs. “Are you taking the samples to the Housewarden?”

“Yup,” Ruggie glanced back, not failing to notice that she had switched back Leona’s title. ‘She noticed.’ He realized he shouldn’t have told his Housewarden classmate, Yulise, when there were two of her “loyalists” in his dorm. And each of them is a ‘goody-two-shoe’.

    “Well, he went back to his room earlier,” Jack was telling Ruggie who he assumed didn’t know because he was heading in the wrong direction. 

    “Right~” Ruggie drawled out as he switched course.

    “We can come with you.” Lluvia said as she started to follow him, with Jack following suit. 

    The trio made their way to Leona’s room as Jack explained how the paperwork for a new lollipop flavor for Savanaclaw had been filled out. And Ruggie verifying that he had foolishly mentioned it to Yulise. He also mentioned that it was Yulise who told him that the dorms could change their flavor of dorm candy when they follow procedure.

    “So the Housewarden doesn’t know,” Lluvia asked, once again reading between the lines.

    “What?” Jack asked, realizing why Lluvia had been giving Ruggie a distruting look the entire time. “Then, who ordered the samples?” he asked while looking at the back of the pseudo-vice-houswarden’s head with a knowing look.

    “Shh~” Ruggie glanced back at the two as they reached Leona’s room. He knocked on the door, “Leona, I have Jack and Lluvia with me. Can they come in too?” He asked, knowing that Leona never liked company. But the answer he got surprised him.

    “Whatever,” was the gruntled reply from inside. Which, in Leona-ese, was a yes. 

    The three went into the room, greeted to the sight of a lounging Leona with his eyes closed.

    “Ruggie, what ‘sample’ is the box that I ‘don’t know about’?” Leona heard them.

    Knowing the jig was up, Ruggie, with much more confidence than a schemer should have, said, “Oh, these are samples of a possible candy flavor for our dorm.” He handed the box over to Leona who moved to sit up and grab the box.

    Opening the box, which had already been unsealed, revealed about a dozen yellow lollipops and a piece of paper on top. Leona picked up the paper and briefly skimmed it before giving an incredulous look at Ruggie, “Donut flavored?” Now getting the full picture, Leona made his trademark conceited grin. “So when did I order these?”

    “Oh, who knows. Either way, they’re just samples and nothing’s finalized.” Ruggie said as he took the now empty lollipop stick out of his mouth. He was trying to save himself from one of Leona’s weird chore punishments. 

    “So it was donut.” Lluvia muttered. 

    “You were going to change our dorms’ flavor without telling anyone?” Jack was not all that surprised by Ruggie’s brazenness.

    “Change?” Leona asked.

    The other three glanced at Leona with a brief moment of silence. Lluvia gave a defeated sigh, “So the housewarden has no clue how the candy order and flavor work. That explains why we’ve had sour lemon this entire time.” None of them were surprised but Jack and Lluvia were still disappointed. 

    “Each dorm has their own flavor that’s chosen by the dorm themselves.” Jack explained again. “So you never did this when you became a housewarden?” 

    “Hm,” Leona, taking in this new info and ignoring Jack’s question, glanced at Ruggie. “And the new flavor ‘I’ chose was donut? Is that even something you can make into candy?” 

    “Well, y’know. Apparently anything can become a flavor…” Ruggie seemed to think for a moment, “Even bacon can be turned into a flavor. And everyone in the dorm has complained about the lemon we’ve had since forever.” Ruggie found an escape. Now he just needed Leona to grab the bait.

    Leona lazy held out his hand. Everyone stared as he looked up at Ruggie, still not getting up from his bed. “Well.”

    “Uh. Did you need something else?” Ruggie asked. He really didn’t know what Leona wanted.

    “The order form. Where is it?” Leona grumbled out.

    Silence descended. The rest of the group was shocked.

    “You want paperwork?”

    “Are you saying you’d fill it out yourself,” Leona looked at Ruggie incredulously.

    “Hehe,” Ruggie nervously laughed, “I’ll go get it.”

To be continued…

Fun fact: Bears, Grizzlies in particular, have one of the strongest senses of smell in the animal kingdom.

Yulise and Yulie got Grim a raincoat and boots. Doesn’t he look cute! Grim is so fun to draw when I’m procrastinating on other things.

Here’s what I’m working on right now.
