That goth girlfriend of yours seems to really like you a lot.

[sams-apron]

Dire Crowley

The mayor of NRV! 

He’s always giving you quests to complete while you’re at NRV claiming he’s too busy to get it done himself but his daily schedule consists of just walking around town doing daily ‘check ups’ on the businesses.

Dubs you a beast master after you gain three hearts with more than two villagers. He says nobody is able to acclimate themselves with the townsfolk so quickly!

He may or may not have been scared off by the scarecrows in your farm once or twice.

Is a total suck up to Governor Ambrose the 63rd but shit talks him behind his back. He plans to overthrow him one day but it’s not looking bright…

Absolutely hates the city and the new Royal Sword Mart that opened in town.

You basically get tasks weekly from him. Don’t worry the rewards are generous as he is a very gracious man~

Loved Gifts: Any Gems, Glass Shards, Gold, Meat, Universal Loves

“How generous of you, farmer! It seems my graciousness has rubbed off on you~”

Hated Gifts: Royal Sword Cola, Any Spicy Foods, Hot Pepper, Universal Hates

“Boohoo! Despite all my generosity and graciousness! How could you give me something so vile!!"

Divus Crewel

The local scientist! I’m not going into his specific field but he does a lot of experiments on the geography and ecosystems of the valley.

He also seems well versed in Chemistry as he regularly supervises Trey and Rook as they do their experiments too. (He’s afraid the pups are gonna injure themselves)

He owns a cool classic car that doesn’t work anymore after years of not travelling out of NRV. He grieves about it a lot.(The junimos fix it and he chaperones you over to the desert!)

His hobby is fashion design and he has a room in his house fully decked out with sewing machines, mannequins and the like.

He keeps a very good dalmatian named Spot at home. He is the most spoiled boy in town.

Occasionally visits the library to play chess with Trein but it usually ends with some kind of argument…

He’s the one who offers to set up a fruit bat/mushroom cave for you! (He may or may not have inspired Jade)

Loved Gifts: Raisin Butter, Wine, Cloth, Dye Materials, Universal Loves

“Good pup! This is a great gift.”

For Cloth and Dye Materials: “Might as well make you something with this… Especially considering your current attire.”

Hated Gifts: Universal Hates

“Bad pup! What is the meaning of this?!”

Mozus Trein

The librarian and teacher!

He holds classes for the kids twice a week but when he’s not a teacher he looks over the library with his cat, Lucius, whom the kids (and Idia) absolutely adore!

He’s quite strict with the manners and knowledge of the young people in town so it’s always a shock to see him so patient and gentle with the kids.

He has grown daughters who are currently working in the city! He regularly pens letters to them and sends over care packages. They come to visit him often too!

He finds it absolutely unacceptable how barren the library in town is and finds lost books more important than artifacts, though he thinks they’re a valuable educational tool as well.

Loved Gifts: Duck Feather, Vichyssoise, Tuna, Leek, Universal Loves

“This is a good gift, farmer. Thank you.”

For Duck Feather and Tuna: “Lucius will enjoy this, I thank you on his behalf.”

Hated Gifts: Universal Hates

“Ugh. How distasteful.”

Ashton Vargas

The town blacksmith!

Honestly? Might’ve become a blacksmith so he could work his arms out… He’s off every Thursday for leg day!

He encourages everyone in town to work out more! Certain townsfolk avoid him because of this.

Approves of you since farming requires a lot of physical labour! Actually offers to help you out with heavy lifting too.

He lives off of the forests too, he hunts and grows his own harvests! 

He has a few chickens too for sustainable egg supply.

Probably one of the nicest villagers if you ignore his gloating!

Loved Gifts: All Eggs, Beer, Universal Loves

“Thanks! Why don’t you drop by later for some weight training? I’ll tell you all of my tips!”

Hated Gifts: Universal Hates

“I hate this stuff!”

Sam

Owner of the general store!

Not much is known about him but he has lots of friends on the other side! (They’re the travelling cart merchants cooperating with him to sell out of season products)

He sells absolutely everything! Except for other shops products since he doesn’t wanna stir up the competition!

The general store has another branch in the city too!

Loved Gifts: Chicken Gumbo, Void Essence, Universal Loves

“Daw, thanks little imp! Now, don’t go thinkin’ this’ll get you a discount~”

Hated Gifts: Solar Essence (His friends hate this stuff), Universal Hates

“Hate to break it to ya, but I have a million of these in the back… You can keep it!”

Grim

The sewer rat? Basically the Krobus of this universe because it was between him and your farm companion! I mean c’mon you can even have him move in with you after you become good friends! He’s the true route fr.

Wants to live on the surface but that bird brained mayor won’t let him! So now he sells random stuff he found in the sewers to you…

He does sneak out pretty often though, it’s how you found him pretty early on.

The poor boy, get him some tuna. It blows his mind the first time he tries it. (He’s been living off of radioactive fish, he’s fine though)

Actually starts living with you even if you’re pursuing a bachelor as soon as he hits ten hearts.

He constantly complains about your other furry companion though…

It’s probably harder to give him a gift he hates since he’ll eat about everything. (Yes he eats all your gifts)

He wants to overthrow Crowley and become the mayor of town! He never succeeds. (He thinks mayor is the highest position in the whole world because it’s all he knows)

Loved Gifts: Tuna, Stone, Any Gem, Universal Loves

“Funa! You’re the best henchuman!!  I was feeling a little hungry!”

Hated Gifts: Universal Hates (Except clay maybe? Feels like he’d eat that too…)

“EW! This is worse than that time you called me a raccoon!”

Not even from this world…

I’m not really the type to have a bunch of headcanons or make some but if I had to have at least one it would be that when Sam says that it’s in stock, then it is in stock. No matter how much you doubt it

And then Yuu realises they can buy products from their world and starts wondering what kind of dark shenanigans are happening in Sam’s shop… Doesn’t work with people tho, only inanimate things.

(And it branches out to a personal AU I have in my head where yuu gets a bunch of songs from their world and sings covers of them online as a fun little thing anonymously and gets unwanted fame, cringe secret idol AU yeah)

[sams-apron]

[sams-apron]

So as I’ve mentioned before in this post , Sam’s existence interests me because of the way his implied ancestor Dr. Facilier died. We all know Dr. Facilier got sucked up into the underworld, and died, presumably.

Which brings up some interesting theories as to why Sam looks so lively if he’s the supposed descendant of two ghosts.

Thanks to @killersweetie for discussing this with me!

Sam is a ghost with a very convincingly human appearance.

He’s a half human, half ghost hybrid(and this might only work if Dr. Facilier didn’t die in the underworld and is basically in a limbo situation)

He’s possessing a dead body and using makeup and stitches to make himself look alive

Transformation potion

He’s in a (gonna catch ‘em all cause he’s) Danny Phantom situation. Which I could see working and it would explain why Sam looks alive and not like a ghost.

Hug Me! (.づσ▿σ)づ.

Asking TWST characters to hug you! Staff Edition, as requested by a few people. 

(These were written to be platonic bc that was just in the headspace I’ve been in lol. also hiiiiiii im back)

Heartslabyul | Savanaclaw | Octavinelle | Scarabia | Pomefiore | Ignihyde | Diasomnia | Staff

Crowley is kind and generous, so he will so kindly and generously give you a hug! All of those feathers though…. You might end up with some in your mouth. He definitely smells odd. Like, not bad, but definitely odd. Also he’s definitely saying some weird shit. You know how he is… Final rating 5/10. It’s not bad, but like— not good either.

You’re lucky Crewel likes you, otherwise he would definitely say no. His hug is very nice, he’ll either pat you on the head or back all dad-like. While hugging him you notice how soft his coat is. You ask him what it’s made of, but he just laughs and sends you on your way… definitely not suspicious. Final rating 8/10. Sir please, what kind of fur is that.

Trein is a father, so he is no stranger to hugs. But his children are all adults now, so he’s a bit out of practice. It’s an oddly formal hug. Stands completely straight and gives you exactly two (2) pats on the back. At least he wears really fancy cologne so he smells nice, and not like an old person at all. Also please refrain from hugging him if you’re allergic to cats. Lucius sheds. Like, a lot. Final rating 6/10. Only a little awkward.

Hugging Vargas might as well be a death sentence. Just look at him. Also wears cologne but not the fancy good smelling kind. He smells like Axe body spray and hair gel. If that’s not enough to take you out, the fact that it feels like he’s actively trying to break your spine definitely will. Final rating 4/10. Dude Chill.

Sam is very weird, very cryptic, and a master salesman. Knows what you want from him before you even walk through the door. Don’t worry about it, his “friends on the other side” told him you’d be here today. Great news, there’s a special promotion going on, RIGHT NOW! With every purchase, you get one free hug from Sam himself! What a deal! The hug itself is nice. He might be weird but he’s a cool guy. Definitely messes up your hair on purpose. Final rating 6/10. The sales pitch lost him some points. Can you be normal for like 3 minutes please

[sams-apron]

Valentine's Day but late.

Sam doesn't use cell phones, but he use public phones. You can't call him, but he always calls.

[sams-apron]

Mr. S’s Mystery Shop

I should probably just stop vague-posting about the Mystery Shop and just share the damn headcanons.

1. Sam seems to slip into an entirely different persona inside the Mystery Shop. Inside the Mystery Shop, he’s always cheerful and loves making deals. Outside the Mystery Shop, he’s usually able to be his real self besides the random outbursts of FANTASY COSTCO, WHERE ALL YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE!!! GOT A DEAL FOR YOU~!

2. There used to be a different store there before Mr. S’s Mystery Shop.

3. Never stay inside Fantasy Costco the Mystery Shop for more than an hour. Unless you’re Lilia. He can stay there as long as he wants without any ill effects.

4. Never enter near closing hours.

5. The sign says it’s open from 7 am to 5 pm. It’s only safe to enter from 10 am to 3:30 pm. During those hours it’s only a relatively normal school store. Crowley’s tried to add a sign about that, but it keeps disappearing.

6. If you must enter at a different hour, then put your hand on the door and pray (to no specific god or other entity) for a safe trip. It’s to let someone know that you may need to be rescued later.

Emergency protocol in case you are trapped inside:

1. If you blink and the store is suddenly much larger (about the size of a supermarket), then you’ve been trapped. Currently, there are no exits unless you can open portals. Find a place to hide, pull out your phone, and call Headmaster Crowley to come get you. If he is not available, then call another teacher or staff member. Don’t be shy. They know how important it is that someone gets you out of there.

2. If you’ve tried calling every teacher, you may be tempted to just call Sam and ask him how to leave. Under no circumstances should you call Sam from inside the store. It gives away your position to any entities inside.

3. If your dorm-mates report you missing that night, the first place the staff will check is the store.

4. Stay in your hiding place until the teacher/staff member you called finds you. Don’t worry about being too well hidden. They’ll always know your exact location within the store. If anything seems off about the teacher (usually the eyes), then don’t go with them. Run as fast as possible and try to find a new hiding place.

5. If you hear heavy, labored breathing coming towards you while hiding, then follow the same procedure as if a fake teacher had found you, but with one extra step: Don’t look at it. If you do, it’ll be a while before you’re sane again.

6. If you can’t seem to escape the creature, then find something you can open (a wardrobe, a book, even a lid). Only do this as a last resort. Some items have portals inside, but the portals can lead to anywhere from Dire Crowley’s office to the bottom of the Mariana Trench. Anything is better than being caught by the Thing in the store.

7. If the portal didn’t open into certain death, the Crowley will be able to track your location. Rescue is still coming.

8. If you’ve looked at the Thing, then never come back to Mr. S’s Mystery Shop. Once you’ve seen it, it can sense you whenever you return.

9. As an extra note, if you meet a man named John inside, he can be trusted. He doesn’t always appear, but he knows which portals lead to where. Remind him that Crowley is still looking for him. You’ll get a bittersweet smile before you go, and he’ll give you a gift to give to Crowley. (Usually money, because he still owes him money from that one time. Don’t ask about that one time.)

Ayyy just a little something silly for the new year!! Jade's "My curiosity is piqued" line reminded me and my sister of this audio lmao. So enjoy! Happy (late) new year! :D

Youtube version:

[sams-apron]

look what I made!

scrolling through Pinterest and I found a how to on how to draw these things ( foolish nincompoops as it was so lovingly titled) so I made the NRC staff!

I am having way to much fun with this.

ok ok I'll stop... or will I?

[sams-apron]

Sam's friends are so helpful. I think they like my little guy.

(My headcanon is that Sam's friends are like the shadow demons that Dr. Facilier worked with, but maybe a little less murdery. Maybe. This one is supporting little Silver via his shadow.)

[sams-apron]

SAM, PLEASE.
