Good day! Thank you so much for your hard work on collection info about TWST, I really enjoy reading you. There is one question about timelines of TWST's events, particularly Playful Land. What about the version where this event takes place not so long before Book 7? It just seems strange for me that this event is may happen before Book 6 not just because of Ortho's mechanism but his closeness to Vil. Isn't it to early for them to be like that before Ortho became Film club's member? On the other hand it may be too late for first-years to worry about finals and for third-years to live in their dorms as you said in the post I'm referring to. This confuses me really much.
I hope you're doing well. Have a nice day!
Hello hello!! Thank you so much, you are so kind! And thank you for this question!
(For the curious, this is in reference to a response to an earlier question about a potential reading order that combines the game's main story and events.)
Tumblr media
This is a great point! Not only is Ortho wearing the college gear that should place this event firmly after Book 6 (the gear itself is practically a Book 6 plot point, marking Ortho's transition into a student at the school), but Vil and Ortho are repeatedly seen to be very comfortable with one another during the events of Playfulland, which may be odd before 6.
The initial question was about a possible reading order rather than a literal timeline, and while I tried to arrange an interpretation that has as little weirdness as possible, this is some of the weirdness that is difficult to avoid :<
Tumblr media
The main issue is Ace's line right at the beginning: he announces that Halloween and finals are coming up soon, and until a time loop is officially confirmed, this means that Playfulland simply has to be before the end of October, while Book 6 is canonically in February of the following year.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But! When deciding on a reading order just for your own enjoyment, there are no rules and we are free to do as we wish :> If Ortho and Vil's relationship (and Ortho's gear) are a bigger paradox for someone than one line from Ace about Halloween, then Playfulland can most definitely go after 6!
My initial graph is mostly attempting to match up the seasons and passage of time:
Tumblr media
If we want to craft a timeline around Ortho, things can shift around a little:
Tumblr media
But this will introduce new anomalies, like Vil lecturing Idia on not putting in enough effort into getting the sequel to Star Rogue made in Book 6, while in this order the sequel will have been announced months prior :<
Tumblr media Tumblr media
@blanca-xwx was so kind as to point out that there are two more major time-contradictions with the above two calendars: Deuce and Epel.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
We see them both learn their unique magics for the first time in Books 5 and 6, respectfully, which they then both use in Glorious Masquerade.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This should place these events solidly after Book 6, just like Playfulland, but also like Playfulland, Glorious Masquerade is confirmed in-game as being in October.
Tumblr media
For the least amount of time-weirdness it might be best to ignore Crowley and play through after Book 6?
There doesn't seem to be a time-paradox-free order into which the story and events can be combined at the moment, but at least we are free to mix and match by personal preference for read-throughs! :> There is no right or wrong way to enjoy the game!

"needs to be pegged but the harbingers have a 'Tops Only' rule so he translates his sexual frustration into violent intent' vibe" ik its not the first time you say it but fucking. Thats like, my ideal babygirl description, shameless gross bbg i would begrudgingly spoil, hes like a chore of a man, but my favourite chore yknow? Like god i cant believe i have to fuck him "you dont have to" no im gonna. Hes my goverment assigned bbg, hand in unlovable hand, and all that. Anyways is ur guy malleus?
this seems like a wild comparison to make, but i think that looking at the difference between scaramouche stans and childe enjoyers is so funny. they're pretty similar characters on a meta-level (piles of childhood trauma that made them hyper-violent in the present, introduced by presenting themselves as an ally to the traveler before dropping the facade only to become a true ally later on, cringe, etc.), but scaramouche stans are very much,,, actual stans who whole-heartedly support his brattiness and atrocities whereas childe enjoyers are just like "i'd put him in a glass jar on my bedroom windowsill and feed him dirt once a month" and otherwise seem to actually despise this man while also expressing their carnal lust for him at every possible chance. your brains are fascinating to me.
also, no! i do appreciate malleus for his comedic potential and homoerotic yearning, but he is simply not as precious to me as he could be. i think riddle or ruggie would probably be my top guy for twst (not overall), but ortho is my Baby Boy of All Time, with duece as a close second. it's a good game if you're looking to adopt some awful, awful children. not so much for guys tho.

Twst boys and weed
Tw: Drug use, it’s literally all about getting high! I also swear a lot. This was also written while I was completely fucked, and it is not grammatically correct.
Info: Jamil, Ruggie, Trey, Cater and Jade all getting high. Mentioned “you” with no specific description.
Summary: You know what it’s about.
🍓Hello friends! I’m making my return as finals are almost over, meaning I get a month long break where I’m free to do whatever I want! And I want to write! I’m EXTREMELY high right now, so I thought why not make some silly little blurbs pabout my favorite recreational hobby and twst boys!
⚠️Disclaimer! I do not recommend smoking to anyone underage in their state/country! If you do smoke please ensure you are with safe people and in a safe place. I always ensure that I am in a safe environment when I do so! However, don’t follow my example please!⚠️
Tumblr media
Jamil for sure partakes in the “devils lettuce” (as my mother so lovingly calls it.) It’s literally one of the only moments of peace he gets in his life. He doesn’t usually smoke more than a hit or two, and he’s not exactly a lightweight, so it’s rare you’d find him ACTUALLY fucked up… but he smokes enough that it usually lingers long enough into the mornings that he can get shit done without losing his mind. However, it is a sight to see a really fucked up Jamil. He will not get that high often, and when he does he makes sure it’s never around Kalim, never when he has school, and just general rule of thumb shit. (I should take notes from this guy.) But he lets loose, completely relaxed and just himself. All that tension in his shoulders rolls out of him with the smoke. Also prone to getting the giggles. Bro will be cracking up over the most stupid bullshit. He has good shit too, he won’t smoke anything but the best that really mellows him out. I personally think, despite how he mellows out, he’d suck to smoke with. He’s picky about how he likes things around him, and he complains about how you smoke, and he will snap if you get on his nerves too much. Also, he isn’t really a social smoker to begin with. He smokes to calm down, people stress him out. Why would he get high with things that stress him out.
Ruggie is an obvious addition here. Like… look at him. Bro is just like me fr /hj. Nah but… weed is like one of the only ways he avoids burning himself out. The floaty, numbing feeling keeps him going through the day. He prefers the stuff that keeps him up and moving, saves the stuff that chills him out for when he gets with friends or is having a particularly rough week with Leona. He’s high functioning no matter what he does, his body pretty much used to working like that from how much he smokes. I promise you he’s absolutely fucked up 90% of the time, but he’s so used to doing shit high that no one notices. Like, that’s just how most people know Ruggie: high as hell. He is POSSESSIVE of his shit too. He’s poor, dude, his shit isn’t even that good — it tastes nasty and the high isn’t even all that enjoyable, but it’s what his money can afford. He doesn’t just share his stash with randoms, you’ve gotta be in tight with him for him to consider sharing. He doesn’t mind smoking with others though, so long as they bring their own.
Cater and Trey get high together, you can’t convince me otherwise. Cater smokes more regularly while Trey does so only when he’s really wound up. Cater started as a high school freshman as a way to cope with his depression and stress from his family. Trey started when he met Cater their first year of college together. Cater is a lightweight, which is all the better for him (Trey disagrees) while Trey takes a bit more to really get it into his system. Regardless of that, the two of them are probably the most fun to smoke with. They’re just constantly cracking jokes and daring each other to do stupid shit (that won’t get them caught/set off Riddle), all around really enjoyable to be around. Caters shit is so good too, it’s a nice gentle ease into a high that lasts the perfect amount of time. Doesn’t taste bad either! Trey sometimes will bake a whole batch of brownies with some and they’ll turn on a random shitty movie, eating through all the brownies until the two of them are so fucked up they can’t walk anymore.
Does it really surprise anyone that Jade is our last victim of my high? No, it doesn’t. Yeah, Jade gets high, for fucking sure. Though, I will say he’s not fond of actually smoking, he prefers edibles. Over that he prefers shrooms, but for the sake of this he’s high on weed, m’kay. Anyway, its… actually hard to tell when Jade is high. He hardly changes his outward behavior, still staring with that creepy smile, but Azul and Floyd know what he’s like. Behind those empty, unblinking eyes and disturbing smile is: …nothing! No thoughts going through his brain. He discovered weed during his time at the human boot camp thing he did, but didn’t try it until college where it was more readily available for him. Shit blew his mind. He’s more impulsive while he’s high, and it’s slightly easier to get him to do what you want him to. Not by much, because it could backfire on you and the intrusive thoughts would win, but if it succeeds you get everything you want and more! (Don’t try this, he may not be thinking of much, but he’s still Jade Leech). Not a good person to get high with, just like how he’s slightly more agreeable high, he’s also slightly (read: extremely) more manipulative and still as slimy as usual. His shit IS good though, almost worth what might come of you if you ever accepted his invitation.

Oh man honestly now that you mention it I think Leona being the mentor type would be such an interesting idea to explore??? Not only is the dynamic fun to think about but the way it could play out could mean a whole lot :0
Also yeah I agree, I wish the twst writers would let characters have better relations with eachother u_u but hey! for this au I can their Leona and Jamil playing off a little better with eachother
But that can also bring up that if hypothetically in this au Leona DOES end up dying! I think about how a common thing with the spidermen stories is that someone who cares a lot about the person who dies sees that persons body with spiderman, making the connection that "spiderman KILLED him!"
Which hey, Leona being royalty would not be a very fun person to be accused of murdering. So Jamil's need to not be revealed to the public as spiderman would be massively important (But also the idea of WHO would see them, uh oh little lion boy..)
Which then the idea of Ace being the first (and maybe the only for a a while) person to know about Jamil could lead to terrible shenanigans, hmmm
I love the idea that Idia unintentionally causing the whole thing would be really fitting too since the whole science stuff :0 that does make me think though is how there would probably be villian of the week sort of enemies that plague the area and hmm who knows, I do like seeing other people also suggest who the bad guys could also be in this au!
OH correct me if I'm wrong but you're the atsv enjoyer anon, right?
Your brain‼️‼️ SO MANY IDEAS, SO MANY POSSIBILITIES‼️‼️ Leona and Jamil being closer/on better terms has so much potential.
The "spider-man KILLED HIM!!" idea immediately puts a huge sense of urgency to the story, LIKE
Tumblr media
But for different reasons than in Far from home, and also the spider viper secret identity would not have been leaked like Peter's did, probably. (I should also make up another spider-man specific name for Jamil, if spider viper sounds too weird EKDNWKDNWKDNEK I KINDA JUST MADE THAT UP FOR PRACTICALITY, PLEASE IGNORE IT) what would he ever do to not be seen as a threat anymore?? Where is mister doctor????
Ace knowing his identity would be barely as helpful as Ganke or Ned are for Miles and Peter, but at least Jamil and Ace are a funny duo 😭😭 the guy in a chair is meant to be helpful and Mr braincell Trappola is the exact opposite of that, full disrespect meant. But in a strange twist of fate, he always manages to get spider jamil covered at the end of the day. Ace always makes his way through the toughest situations, no matter how many times he stumbles in the process. Ace + Jamil duo are always on thin, thin ice, and it's very entertaining.
And idk if I mentioned this before, but while I'm on the topic, I was thinking Najma would be quick to uncover spider-man's secret identity too. She's smart! And you think she wouldn't notice how that weird masked vigilante acted the exact same as her brother? She would scold and poke fun of him for it, saying like "are you even trying to keep this a secret, or am I THAT good of a sister to spot your mannerisms right away?". She could even be the one to find and modify a hero uniform for him! In exchange to leaving all her house chores to him for a month, of course, she doesn't design and sew free of charge.
I rlly need to search up more of spider-man's villains to headcanon in this au akbdiwdhwodbwkjs I too, would love to hear more ideas regarding it. Besides Azul and Idia that I mentioned before, someone commented Jack as the Prowler too, which I think is super cool and fitting 💃💃💃💃

Hiya! Love your analyses and writing! I’m watching playthroughs of twst since it’s not available in my country, but reading through your analysis of the manga… do you think people like me would find more enjoyment in waiting for the manga to come out? I think you’ve said before (or someone else), that there’s more content regarding the house wardens backstories (or more nuance and portrayal of Riddle’s past). I can see lots of flaws in game (from the play though), but the way you showed us how much character is portrayed through the manga… I don’t know, maybe twst is better served through a different medium than the game?
Hahahah, I’m actually trying to write my own yuusona into getting isekaid into twst and I already know trying to adapt chapter 2 is going to take a lot of effort because it is by far my least favorite of all the chapters, that’s why I’m asking.
Thank you so much for your insight and I hope that you have a wonderful day!
[Referencing this post, this post, and this post!]
Tumblr media
Hello, hello ^^ Thank you for enjoying my works~
I think each medium that Twisted Wonderland comes in has its own unique strengths and differences. I know that I’ve talked about how the manga excels at visual storytelling and conveying character without the same amount of dialogue as the game, but I wouldn’t necessarily say that the manga would provide more enjoyment than the game (though is it slightly more accessible) or that the manga is “better” than the game.
It’s true that we’re able to go into a little more detail about Riddle’s past, but I’d say it’s namely in new visual elements (like actually being able to see kid!Riddle, Chenya, and Trey, as well as a general idea of what Mama Rosehearts looks like; these are just silouhettes in the game). The manga does not provide any significant new information that the game lacks; the dialogue itself is largely the same. The manga is predominantly a lot of new visual information. I’d like to also add that the manga has the benefit of coming out after the game, so people already know what to anticipate from it, and thus are already primed to like or dislike the manga based on how well they received the same plot in the game.
There is a lot of content that the game has that the manga will not cover, such as event stories, vignettes, and homescreen lines, all of which serve to enhance the world and give more lore on each character. That alone is worth keeping up with the game’s content too!
Another thing to make note of is that the manga releases one chapter every other month (not counting for unforeseen or planned hiatuses and breaks), and we’ve only just started on Savanaclaw. With each subsequent episode getting longer and longer, it’s going to take literal years and years to catch up to TWST’s main story in the manga adaptation.
The manga also has a weird quirk where the protagonist seems to change every episode; if you get too invested in a certain Yuu, know that they won’t ever get a full character arc/they won’t be sticking with you until the final episode (Diasomnia). It’s not very good for those wanting a more consistent protagonist to follow.
I would say the manga also isn’t for people who prefer a medium that is more interactive or allows for more self-projection; the game is better for this, as though Yuu’s involvement is minimal, it does allow for players to imagine themselves doing basically whatever in the world of TWST. Of course, the game itself isn’t perfect and has its flaws. It’s definitely not a style of game for everyone.
Ultimately, whether you consume the game only, the manga only, or both… that’s up to you. You know yourself and your tastes the best, not me. I hope that you find my advice helpful and that you can make your own informed decision with it! ^^

Scarabia Kink Headcanons
Not me disappearing for months or anything
As a side note, I'm debating on if I should link this to my general tumblr or keep this separate due to it being nsfw primarily. This is mainly due to me following using my main, buuuut I keep it blank and keep each fandom as it's own thing, and I know people tend to not like blank blogs following them soooo there's that. I'm also debating on if I should split my twst into two blogs, one strictly nsfw and one sfw. I also plan to finally start posting some drabbles, and potentially open up requests... but either way, enjoy the kink headcanons, and I should have the next ones up way sooner hopefully! As per usual, nsfw under the cut.
Tumblr media
Kalim Al-Asim
Surprisingly not vanilla, but not super kinky either... or at least not as much as certain other students.
More into pleasuring his partner, expect to be completely pampered in bed. (He tends to go above and beyond in literally everything he involves himself in... so brace yourself).
Really into you wearing certain outfits... expect to be decked out in absolutely gorgeous jewelry without much else, or gold chain lingerie. He loves to see his partner dressed in the best, and you're one of his treasures now, so of course you'll be draped in gold and jewels!
Light bondage, but more the fuzzy handcuffs type. He just wants you to relax while he makes you feel good.
He honestly probably would pull out toys, and it's not like he can't afford the most expensive ones or anything... so look forward to getting to try them out, with him probably ordering extras of your favorites.
One of the rare characters in that he's not a sadist or a masochist... though he does have a slight teasing streak you see come out if you poke him too much on certain cards along with that one face...
Switch. In most situations he'll take control simply because he wants to make his partner feel good... but if his partner wants to Dom him he has no issue with that either.
Would probably prefer a pillow princess type. Kalim is so used to Jamil doing everything, but you see him constantly trying to take care of others/take initiative to make others happy. Since he's so used to being pampered but seems to want to pamper others I imagine he would really go out of his way to spoil his partner since they would be one of the few people socially acceptable for him to spoil.
Tumblr media
Jamil Viper
And here we have one of the contestants for kinkiest student (though Jade still has him beat).
Let's be realistic, there's going to be hypnosis involved one way or another. Not necessarily all the time, but Jamil definitely enjoys have complete control.
Definitely whips and chains here too. Not to the same extent as certain others coughJadecough but Jamil loves to reduce his partner to a whimpering mess. Likely some light wax play as well.
At the same time, the majority of the time the chains won't be literal. Expect mental bondage. He'll order you not to move, and you'd better obey your master. But don't worry if you have trouble keeping perfectly in position, if it's too hard for you he'll use his unique magic to assist you in your pose.
Like Kalim he wants to see you in gorgeous outfits, but unlike Kalim worshiping your body expect said outfits to be ripped off you/damaged (but not destroyed, he has enough control to ensure they can be repaired afterwards). Jamil just really wants to see his partner a bit messed up afterwards.
Will definitely cover you with marks, you belong to him and he's not sharing.
Sadist 100%. Jamil tries to hide it, but he can't help but get enjoyment out of other's pain. Leona points this out in Jamil's uniform vignette, but that's far from the only occasion... although only the more perceptive characters have picked up on his sadism.
Dom, and one of the few where this is non-negotiable. Jamil has spent his life having to obey regardless of what he wants. The bedroom is one of the few times he can have full control, and he's going to take advantage of it.
Jamil would likely have a preference for a service oriented partner. He wants a partner who would be fine worshiping his body for hours while he lounges, and who is willing to take whatever he gives the partner. He would also be looking for a partner that would stay extremely loyal. I know some people headcanon a polycule with Jamil/Reader/Kalim (which is perfectly valid!), but I feel Kalim is the last person Jamil would ever want to share with.

I drew a lot of twst and Arknights this year.
Thanks for joining on my art journey, I'll try not to disappoint!
Introspection under the cut.
This year started off pretty strong but my laptop died for a solid month in March and I feel like that really hindered my drive.
After I got my laptop fixed it was convention grind for months which honestly killed my creativity LOL. I feel like full time work with what's essentially full time art on top of that is incredibly draining.
Not many people know this but I'm the type to spend my time incredibly efficiently. Unless I can gain something I don't do it. This year especially I spent a lot of my free time on merch cause it directly relates to con profits.
The silver lining is that it worked. But the downside is that I find merch art less enjoyable.
Maybe the take away is to draw more Jade pr0n and less merch art LMAO. Buuuuut knowing me that won't happen. I'll draw Jade pr0n for my own sanity whenever I can squeeze it in.
I do think I got better but is it good enough? Never. I don't think I'm improving fast enough. I need to find a solution to this problem.
Is anyone reading this? LOL Hiiiiiiii *waves*. I don't really care for engagement and numbers but it always brightens my day to have people reach out to me and tell me they like my art or that my horni on main-ness helped them come to terms with what they like! I'll keep doing that cause I can't stop being myself LOL but I'm glad me being myself is a net positive :)
Going back to the con grind now. Peaaaaceeee~

50 followers!
When I posted those memey new years cards back around the start of the year I didn’t expect that I would continue this blog, maintain a streak of at least 1 original post per day for over a month, or get this many followers and notes.
I’m glad that you all have found enjoyment in my content so far! I’m not sure how long I can maintain daily content due to being busy with other stuff, but I’ll still try and post multiple things a week for as long as my interest in TWST lasts!
Anyway, to celebrate this milestone, I’m here to announce that you can now request outfit swaps and other edits from me. Send me any requests you have as an ask, just keep in mind that:
I can’t draw good so I’m limited to what is in the game.
I will do what I want for stuff like the pose, expression, makeup, and accessories if you aren’t specific about those.
It may take a while to complete a request depending on its difficulty and my motivation.
I will not do any suggestive or NSFW requests.
I reserve the right to refuse requests that I can’t do or don’t want to do.
Alright, have a nice day/night yall! Thank you for being here 💖

TWST Mond Twin Headcanons
((A masterlist of all the random facts and trivia bits for the Mond twins. I may create separate posts of new things in the future, but those new bits will always be added/archived in this post! As with some of my other character lists/profiles, a “last edited” date will be posted to inform when the last addition was.
Diamond Crown Academy, Katherine’s school, is created by @phoenix-manga.
Last Edited: 5-15-2020, added DCA Festival headcanons, corrected an old headcanon, newly added headcanons are in bold font.))
GENERAL HEADCANONS: headcanons that don't necessarily fit into a specific category, mainly little general snippets about the twins.
The Mond twins are a...peculiar set of siblings. They're friendly enough at their own schools, but get them together and you'll likely never see one without the other. They're very attached and seem to only trust each other. Despite how nice they seem, there always seems to be the aura that you talking to them feels like you're intruding in their space and better play by their rules because of it.
There's a rumor that the twins aren't entirely human, if they're human at all. Some believe they're fae or fairy. The twins have never addressed these rumors themselves and, if confronted with them, tend to give vague answers that neither confirm nor deny. Some believe that in of itself confirms the rumors, but the Monds have been known to be mischievous and may simply get entertainment out of confusing their classmates.
Despite their cunning, secretive behavior, the twins aren't bad or evil. They're mainly mischievous and distrustful of others. They're neutral at their worst, just wanting to protect each other above all else. They might relish in the chaos of something like a prank, but destruction and devastation doesn't sit well with them. They're not above schmoozing and sweet-talking to get something like an extension on homework or the last tart in the lunch line, but they wouldn't betray a friend to serve themselves. Ultimately, it's better to be on their good side, but being on their bad side isn't much of an inconvenience, unless the situation is very, VERY bad.
In regards to the above headcanon, the twins mostly represent characters that appear to be on the villain’s side before ultimately abandoning or straight-up betraying them, or characters that you’re absolutely sure are the main villains before the actual villain’s plot comes to light and you realize they were working against the evil.
"Canonically" for TWST Katherine might not be part of NRC due to the "all-boys school" angle, but at the very least she'd visit a lot; if she was part of a NRC dorm, it would be Ignihyde like her brother despite everyone and their grandmother expecting her to be sorted into Pomefiore. In Ignihyde, she'd specialize in web design, but she'd also have a knack for engineering; seeing various pieces like a giant puzzle to put together to make things work. Many classmates would come to her for help with building their own PCs.
Thomas and Katherine share a bank account, but have their own cards attached to it. Both earn relatively the same amount of money in their side jobs. Thomas' payments might be more substantial in the moment, but Katherine is commissioned much more frequently, either through bulk orders of products made by her own hand or companies paying substantial amounts for the rights to various recipes they pay her to concoct.
As proud as Thomas is of his sister's accomplishments, Katherine sends him a hysterical amount of perfumed goods of her own creation, asking for critiques. He does what he can, but to reduce them overwhelming his dorm room, he usually does his initial "testing" with them once before leaving them in a box on Pomefiore's doorstep.
Katherine's animal companion at DCA is an orchid mantis named Lamarie; while normally only the companion's owners can hear them speak, Thomas can hear Lamarie talk as well.
Lamarie is a very conceited, boastful little bug to the point where Vil would describe her as "full of herself" if he could hear her speak. Despite her selfish attitude, she cares about Katherine dearly and will go to great lengths to protect her, even if the effort isn't always necessary.
The Monds use a similar fragrance mainly comprising of cloves and fresh rosemary. Thomas' cologne also contains hints spearmint and bergamot. Katherine's perfume also contains hints of lavender and patchouli. Their respective scents are present in various products made by Katherine, and they regularly bathe with the pure oil mixtures stirred into their bath water. This leaves their smells being particularly persistent (almost overwhelming) and while Katherine says there's no magic additives, non- or weak-magicked beings tend to find themselves being slowly entranced or even "hypnotized" by the smell after a certain period, weakening their resolve and rationality.
While their favorite food is chestnuts, both of the twins' favorite dish is chicken curry, though Katherine likes Indian-style curry while Thomas likes Japanese-style curry. While both enjoy a certain level of spiciness, they tend to exaggerate their ability to tolerate it, leading to some...interesting scenarios when the host/cook takes their word on such.
While curry is their favorite food, Katherine enjoys caviar tasting, though Thomas finds caviar gross. However, Thomas enjoys artisan cheeses while Katherine loathes it.
Both twins love boba drinks, particularly ones with lots of fancy toppings. Thomas eats the toppings out of the whip cream with a spoon before drinking, Katherine likes to drink the toppings through her straw as they sink into the drink.
The twins are relatively neutral when it comes to sweets, though once in a blue moon they get plagued by a ravenous sweet tooth. They prefer baked goods over candy when it comes to satisfying their sugar cravings. Thomas is a straightforward cake-lover, especially chocolate (god tier: chocolate lava cake); Katherine will say her favorite dessert is French macarons because of the aesthetic, but she'll sneak out at the crack of dawn to get donuts for the aforementioned sugar craving above.
Thomas is naturally gifted in herbology and plant-based magic. Katherine grew into it in her teens with lots of training and practice, but she had the terrible luck of frequently killing plants when she was a child. When Thomas discovered his affinity, he'd often revive the plants to keep Katherine from crying. Katherine's prized possession is a lamb's tail succulent Thomas gave her when they were kids that he guided her into keeping alive. Thomas doesn't have a passion for herbology, but he keeps a small potted lilac tree in his dorm, as Katherine gave it to him as the first plant she was able to successfully grow during her first year at DCA.
On the flip side, Thomas could burn cereal as a child. Like how he helped Katherine with gardening, Katherine has tried to help his cooking skills. He learned well enough, but without a dedicated cooking class at NRC (chemistry being the closest thing, which HAS surprisingly helped), his learning process has been slow. He's an okay cook now, and what he does make is at least edible if not enjoyable, but it's definitely not pretty. (Thomas: *standing casually in front of a collapsed cake* "Started making it. Had a breakdown. Bon appetite.")
While Thomas is in the board game club, if the club is cancelled or on the days it doesn't meet, he sometimes sits in on magical shift or track and field clubs to help get regular exercise in; he also helps in tutoring/instructing junior students in the clubs.
If the gardening research club doesn't meet, Katherine might show up to the greenhouse/club room to watch and fuss over the plants, even if she doesn't actually interfere with them because she wants to be a good gardener. Sometimes other clubs, usually the volleyball club, will drag her to their meetings to keep her from worrying.
Thomas is usually on the magical shift team for Ignihyde during the tournament, but he's willing to yield his position on the team if there's 7 players stronger than he is.
BACKSTORY HEADCANONS: headcanons relating to their backstory or explanations of how their origins affect other aspects of their life.
The twins were taught how to read, write, and most basic skills by Mim, including how to use magic. This was to her advantage so they could be independent enough to follow her orders (and not bother her when she had no tasks for them).
However, King Arthur adapted magic into his being over his long life, both by being tutored by Merlin for so long and then over the course of his main journeys and triumphs. Spending so much time with the twins as kits, he imbued them with a little of this magic and is the main reason they remember him so well despite how young they were.
In short, the twins had an adaptation to both good and black magic when they were young.
The twins can change between being human and being squirrels. They themselves have wondered if they could transform midway into a hybrid form, but they’re worried about getting “stuck” and haven’t tried. They also don’t want to try because being born as squirrels is a secret they’ve kept from their classmates (they believe it’s a secret to the teachers and staff as well, but both Crowley and Citrouille are well aware of this, despite not knowing full details of the twins’ origins).
Since Mim is an incredibly powerful sorcerer, the twins adapted a human lifespan once they were transformed by her. They were only a few months old as young squirrels when she transformed them and they had become children as humans, but they also started to age as humans as time went on.
The twins adore mainstream human cuisine, but they still have the tendency to snack on nuts and berries they pluck straight off the plant. They have to be careful of this habit because while they can digest certain things like fresh acorns, they have to be mindful that someone might notice them eating raw foods that would normally be poisonous to humans, such as uncooked acorns.
Naturally, the twins excel at Animal Linguistics. They have to be particularly careful about this because animals on campus risk revealing the twins’ secret to other students proficient in Animal Linguistics if they’re spotted transforming. They have to feign natural excellency at the subject as humans, but also not be found out when transforming into squirrels to use their natural forms to their advantage.
The twins don’t remember Merlin very well from the short time he was looking after them. While he seemed kind enough in wanting to save them from Mim, they’re not interested in reuniting with him because they don’t know his true intentions.
What they don’t know is that Merlin had managed to locate them when they started school, but has decided to leave them alone for the most part. His original agreement with Arthur’s son was to make sure they were released safely into the wild and he sees their current situation as a way to interpret it. He’s normally away, but sometimes he checks in, guiding them as a disembodied voice or animating objects to lead them in the right direction. The twins write this off as normal absurdity in their magic-filled schools and don’t realize it’s him.
The twins weren't sorted into Savanaclaw or Sagamore despite being animal-humans partially because they're not clear hybrids. Another, bigger reason is that their memories from being in nature are not pleasant ones (first being orphaned as kits and then living under Mim's hand) and they want to distance themselves from nature and their "origins" as much as possible.
They put a lot of effort into learning as much as they could about the modern world in such a short amount of time. Their knowledge is certainly passable, but they still slip up here and there. They prioritized learning alchemy for potions that could help them stay awake to study longer or help retain information a bit better. The same came with learning how to use computers as they noticed it was important in the current society. It was difficult for them when they were in hiding before they enrolled, but their fear possibly being enslaved by another witch encourage them to study hard and get stronger in both knowledge and resolve.
Lamarie knows they’re origins and the twins know she knows, but she keeps their secret to respect their wishes and protect Katherine, worried that the witch from their past might be trying to find them.
Lilia and Malleus are also highly aware that the twins aren't human, but they keep it to themselves.
One reason the twins use such strong fragrances in their products is because when they were still hiding at NRC, one persistent Savannaclaw student could pick up on their scent in rooms they were previously in during the night. Even if they were in human form in that room, the student specifically mentioned picking up on the scent of "squirrel" so it lead the twins to believe that even as humans their natural scent/musk smells animalistic. They threw the student off their literal scent before he could find them out by slipping a potion into his drinks and food to give him horrible allergies for the rest of his time at NRC, making him unable to smell clearly until he graduated.
IN-GAME HEADCANONS: headcanons regarding how the twins would work as canon characters in the actual game.
Thomas' unique magic is called "Found Your Weak Spot". He zeroes in on an opponent's weakness, whether it's physical, emotional, or magical and identifies how to exploit it; his attacks become critical.
Katherine's unique magic is called "Take a Deep Breath". A pleasant, but abundant fragrance overtakes her opponents, confusing their minds and slowing their movements, making their attacks much easier to dodge.
If they were in the game, they'd have an overblot boss battle as a special event. During the event, a side story would unfold where the player finds out about their past. The event would reward the player for participating by giving them rare cards where the twins unlock a human-squirrel hybrid form (similar to Savanaclaw students). The cards would depict stories of the twins trying to come to terms with being more open about their origins with their classmates, as well as trying to adjust to their hybrid forms.
CHARACTER RELATIONSHIP HEADCANONS: headcanons explaining how the twins, either separately or together, interact with canon or other OC characters.
During holidays where students can visit home, the twins stay at NRC, normally spending it having huge gaming marathons with Idia. While it took years of getting to know Thomas for Idia to open up to the idea, he enjoys how they're much more willing to venture out to restock on snacks and other supplies in his place. Ortho, unsurprisingly, has to be the voice of reason and makes sure the trio doesn't die from their diet of pizza and chocolate pretzels during this time.
Going back to how the twins have relatively normal diets, they will eat the most decadent, indulgent food concoctions (think burgers with jelly donuts as buns or hotdogs with s’more toppings) in front of Vil just to horrify him. Vil’s motions to have them banned from Pomefiore dorm and a restraining order from him personally have gone unapproved.
While not particularly kid-oriented, the twins are very good at interacting with Ortho. Thomas tries to look after him when Idia isn't around, particularly performing small maintenance on Ortho's suit (such as replacing worn wires or tightening bolts) when it wears a little from extensive use in the middle of the school day. Katherine has had less interaction with Ortho, but gives him little trinkets and souvenirs from DCA when she visits Thomas.
Cheka doesn't know the twins all that well, but he likes their long hair worn in braids (or, as he calls them, their "head-tails").
HOLIDAY HEADCANONS: headcanons specifically centered around how the twins celebrate the holidays.
During their first Christmas at NRC when they were hiding, they'd sneak into dorms and watch holiday movies any students were watching. They were enamored by gingerbread houses and managed to get a boxed kit each year to decorate, but now that they're older, they decide on a design and Katherine will bake the pieces herself when she visits NRC during the holiday break. Ortho typically joins them and has fun helping decorate the structure; he tries to get Idia to join, but the older Shroud tends to hyper fixate on one area to decorate and over-obsesses on how to make it "perfect" to not ruin the overall look of the gingerbread house. They're all glad Idia joins them, but they worry about whether or not he's actually having fun with it.
DCA FESTIVAL HEADCANONS: headcanons regarding the festival held by Diamond Crown Academy.
Katherine gives her bath products to be sold at the perfume booths by the alchemy students. She checks in occasionally to see if they need more of her products (and sometimes to man a stall for awhile so someone else can take a break), but she's normally involved in the more physically active attractions.
Katherine's duties for the festival rotates throughout the course of it. Since one of her strongest subjects is Obstacle Run (see: squirrel), she spends a good amount of time at the obstacle course being a potential challenger for the visiting students to race against.
Katherine is part of an idol group, but with rotating performances from different groups, she doesn't have to spend a lot of time on stage.
Despite not being a dorm leader, a lot of DCA students recognize Thomas as Katherine's brother (either as a formal acquaintance or just "hey, he looks exactly like the girl from Chateau Beastiale") so the native students are more open to approaching him out of familiarity. Some students even "drag" him to a certain booth or attraction to get his opinion on their hard work.
The first few years, Thomas was content to just wander around on his own. He tried hanging out with Rook during the festival for a bit, but the attention Rook tends to get got a little boring for Thomas to put up with. Now he just trades off who he hangs out with, if he hangs out with anyone at all while Katherine's busy.
Thomas doesn't realize it, but he has a bit of a "prince charming" reputation himself. This is because of his long hair and charming demeanor, but DCA students fawned over him at a distance one time while he was helping Katherine fix her hair before one of her performances, people swooning over his caring "older brother" instinct.
Aside from watching Katherine's group, Thomas tries to distance himself from the idol performances. Whether it comes from wanting to tease their colleague's brother or just wanting Thomas' attention, some groups will drag him on stage after their initial performance and encourage him to try and dance along to one of their songs. He goes along despite being embarrassed because he'd find it more embarrassing to "run away" or cause some sort of scene at Katherine's school by protesting.
Thomas usually spends his time trying out different foods, but he'll also find himself in the art gallery, trying to see if there's any pieces inspired by King Arthur or the twins' original home world. If there is, he purchases it immediately if he artist lets him, but given the unlimited points of inspiration in the world, he almost never sees any pieces.
He also spends a surprising amount of time at the Futterwacken dorm because the sentient tea sets stir a strange feeling of nostalgia in him. While he doesn't interact with Riddle too often, them both enjoying the tea parties at the festival allows them to catch up and have fun in familiar company, even if they don't usually hang out at NRC.
It's through the above that Thomas came into a possession of a very strange sugar bowl. The dish's enthusiasm humored him a great deal and when he asked about it, it brought attention to how nobody at DCA actually knew where that particular sugar bowl had come from and, with the staff's permission, they allowed Thomas to buy it and take it back to his dorm. The little bowl's antics still continue to amuse him, but he can't seem to make it understand that he doesn't want sugar in anything other than coffee or tea. He doesn't drink energy drinks or do his alchemy homework in his room anymore...
