#great news idia at least youre not alone

[leuxcrows]

you know when book 7 chapter 2 dropped and everyone was asking themselves in what situation were their yuu/ocs? i asked myself the same question and then i remembered that

1) fae and undead hate each other so these four idiots are probably not invited to lilias farewell party

2) undead cant sleep nor are they affected by sleep spells, mind controlling spells, posion or acid

which means malleus probably forgor about them ww

Before the Gift

Gift of….

Summary: They knew, they knew that you never felt happiness ever since you save them one by one. The first was great but the more it continues…..

Ace and Deuce noticed when you feel like shit, they wanted to ask you but you continued to dodge their questions and just simply move on. Its frustrating for them really, they decided to ask Grim to see how you feel in the night, it would never hurt to find the reason why. Grim was skeptical at first but he would be rewarded with premium tuna can so he accepts. Grim made sure that he stays awake in the night, finally he has the clues.

You were often hiding in other rooms crying when everyone is asleep, hiding yourself from revealing your own true feelings. It pains Grim to find that discovery so he ran out of the dorm and runs straight to Ace and Deuce to tell him what he found.

Little did Grim did not realize Riddle was there scolding the ADeuce duo as to why they were up this late. Finally the explanations are now revealed with the help of Grim.

The trio remained speechless, and yet Ace can’t help but needed to do something.

After all, you did all of their heavy lifting mode.

Thankfully Trey and Cater catches up and soon understand the situation, they suggested was giving a gift to Perfect. Ace and Deuce thinks that it was a good idea and yet Riddle was honestly concerned if the gift alone would make you happy. But Ace just suddenly told him to just give the gift a shot, Riddle was hesitate but then agreed but they all had to tell Grim not to tell this plan to others.

The next day when Ace and Deuce were spying on Perfect enjoying the gifts, Jack happened to see what was going on and yet asked the ADeuce combo about it. Tho they both explained that Perfect got a gift from the Housewarden Riddle, Jack manage to see the happiness from your expression, he did recall seeing you depressed especially when you are alone. Jack then had a plan and ADeuce was confused when he suddenly left.

Jack went to Leona to talk about your situation, tho Leona was about to just sleep the conversation away, but he stayed away when he heard about your situation. There is no way in hell that Leona can sleep through that, Leona simply told Jack to leave this to him since he DID recall catching Riddle holding a box. And yet, Leona asked Jack to find a gift that would make you smile, Ruggie also pitches in on find an info on what makes you smile.

Soon Epel was able to find many ideas on how to give you a gift at that time, but was caught by Vil. And yet Epel had to let Vil know about you, Rook also heard the news and decided to chirp in to the conversation and at the same time agrees to beg with Epel to Vil to at least give you something.

Part of Vil wants to refuse, but the thought of seeing Perfect fake smiling does make him uncomfortable.

Sebek wanted to help but he was too occupied with Malleus and yet….. a part of him decided to help out.

The next part Sebek does was going to Lilia about what does he think that you would like, Silver thought it was suspicious but Sebek insisted on thinking of a gift. He did pointed out that you are also feeling under the weather, but they were not expecting that Malleus was also hearing this from the other side of the room.

How the other dorms noticed the first years giving you the gift is interesting.

Jade and Floyd caught Riddle Leona holding gift boxes and handing it to you, the second they pointed that out to Azul, he was frustrated at them for doing the first move if a hug from Leona wasn’t enough there was Riddle’s hand kiss? Oh no way Azul would not let that slide, he ordered the eel twins to capture the ADeuce combo for some answers, they did but at what cost.

The octo trio hearing that you have been depressed lately? That is something new to them and yet, it doesn’t feel funny when they manage to find you crying in secret. From there on they decided to give you gifts as well, they were all in on the plan.

Idia with his security camera did happen to see you depressed and yet he also saw how the other housewardens give you gifts, Ortho suggested of doing what they do tho Idia rejected the idea. But Ortho literally had to remind Idia and you are literally the reason they all changed for the better, he has to admit that your company was also nice, so he decided to accept it and give it a shot. But to his dismay when Ortho told him to just give this to you instead, sure again Idia rejects but Ortho said that you won’t reject it anyway. Thanks to that Idia decided to give the gift to you in person or tablet a goal.

Jamil happened to overhear Epel and Sebek on the conversation about you on the cafeteria, tho he isn’t sure if he should give a gift that is perfect to you. He decided to ask Kalim about any ideas and yet Kalim also knows the situation as well, he cheerfully suggested on giving you the greatest gift, but Jamil just told him to give you something that isn’t from a rich kid.

Kalim then agrees and then an idea struck that he should at least trying sewing, tho Jamil was a bit worried but then he soon agrees. They are sure giving you a handmade plushie won’t hurt.

Finally Grim himself, he kept you company from time to time. Tho even if he did hear that you just wanted to be alone, Grim isn’t having it and just stubbornly stay by your side even if its in secret or not. Part of him wants to give you that premium tuna but you would told him to just keep it instead.

And yet Grim had one idea, and that is to give you his ribbon.

Tho you are confuse as to why he do that, but Grim can’t help but cry and point out why you kept all those negative emotions to yourself. Because of that Grim leaned on you for more hugs, making you cry and hug him back in return.

Was it because you can’t take it anymore?

Or was it that you just felt incredibly lonely?

And yet Grim needs to remind you one thing, if you are depressed the others will find you.

[idiaa-shroxd]

while working on reqs. here’s a little brainrot bubble. I think it’s be funny if instead of us getting Isekai’d the twenty two boys at entrance ceremony find themselves Isekai’d into your “mysterious” house that you inherited from a grandparent after you touch a mirror that had a cloth covering. Imagine teaching them about technology and try to convince these people to stay sane while in each other’s faces for almost twenty four hours a day, especially since some of them just met and got sorted into dorms. I just had the thought of do these men have airplanes in their world? and it kind of evolved to this.

Like Diasomnia on edge at first with Silver and Sebek trying to guard Malleus as Lilia listens to you and your explanation deeming you no threat. Malleus is simply happy he was invited or included with everyone when they were teleported. In Savanaclaw they all still have their beastmen features so you’re pleading with this stranger to not leave and go outside and cause trouble and this lion man is like… if you insist, while being smug. Totally acts like he is pitiful if you ask for help because he is stuck indoors. Floyd is having the time of his life, he will gnaw on furniture, as Jade is a bit more grounded but follow’s Azul’s lead as he tries to convince you to turn your house into a business as you deny.

Ignihyde has Idia and his brother and you’re thinking what a cute robot before he shoots a laser at a bug and you think that is enough for today. You eventually let all the boys live in your grandpa’s old home since it were rather large.. and magic is convenient. They can easily clean up the place and some are eager to learn about your world. You went from a normal life alone to living a life with a whole lot of boys.

Some of them do chores, like Trey, Jade, Jamil, who are the main chefs, while others such as Ruggie and Rook handle the laundry. Azul, Jade and Floyd handle your budgeting and monthly finances. You are not sure how but the money they give as “rent” increases per month. Vil and Idia have picked up youtube and streaming respectively, Idia being a vtuber and Vil having a channel that does a variety of content. Both are surprisingly popular. Vil also helps you renovate the interior design and Idia + Ortho handle all the machines and wifi. Some do odd jobs on occasion around the place like Ace, Epel, Lilia, some do hard lifting and collecting firewood like Jack and Sebek. Others such as Riddle and Cater can set the table, sweep up and check in on you. Some are freeloaders such as Leona, Malleus, and Kalim.

You figured things would be dysfunctional at first since your newfound boys weren’t allowed outside of your house, in fact are physically incapable of leaving your property, but they all managed to fit right in snuggly. Honestly, you couldn’t imagine just how hard life would be without them. You start working from home as your grandpa’s business is also passed down to you, even though you are a grossly underqualified child- claiming to be told old to keep up as he leaves to traveling the world after meeting the boys once. He doesn’t freak out and just go “:P forgot to tell you.”

You find their magic interesting. You also find out your grandpa has a lot of secrets. He can’t return them (much to their disappoint but later they could not care less they won’t return) but he can at least help out with some ancient books passed down about the great seven themselves, helping the Octatrio stay in human form. You also find some of them demanding, Floyd and Kalim almost always clinging to your arms as you try to work.

Sometimes you wake up to arguments, a chair may be flying, literally. Another time you awoke to a crying grey cat with ears of fire, trying to scratch at you. Hearing your scream Riddle and Azul came to your rescue, but you quickly told them not to be mean to a kitty, keeping him and naming him Grim.. seems like your home has gotten a new member, again.

Idia seems much more willing to leave his room when you mention getting a cat. Ace looks slight annoyed that you get to keep a fire producing cat but he could not keep a bear that Rook found? You were completely unfair. Meanwhile Riddle is ready to collar the cat for existing because he found a tart of his being eaten by the cat. You barely contained his rage, everyone lived another day.

Overall a chaotic household you now have.

a fun concept to play with? I’m a fan of the “inherits some mysterious magic object” trope and wanted to toy around with it a bit. i also had thoughts like my yuu would 100% be nicer to them than they are to us and give them a place to actually stay than kicking them to the curb like a certain Ramshackle building.

[GN reader]

IDIA SHROUD seemed to be in a good mood today, at least according to what you've seen so far. probably because his latest purchase is the cause of his being in such an upbeat mood. not that you're complaining; it was rather cute seeing him all excited and giddy when he found a new game to play. it's like a whole new, different side of him comes out whenever he starts to ramble about the features of the game and why he should absolutely play it right now. of course, as his player one, you're automatically going to be the first person he's going to play with. not that you mind, really. playing with idia was always a fun experience; it reminded you a lot of how you would spend your free time back in your world.

(those days of laziness, those days of unproductivity where you did nothing but lay down on your bed and do nothing—no school work to do, no club activities to do, no studying for an upcoming exam—just pure idleness. then when you're bored, you could just use your phone, PC, or iPad to entertain you as the day goes by, playing nonstop until late hours in the evening. god, you miss those days.)

you often wondered what genre of video games this new world had to offer. you knew that it wouldn't be so different from your own world, but you weren't sure just how many of your friends were affiliated with gaming entertainment. out of fear that judgement would be placed upon you if you shared this interest of yours, your love for video games has been hidden—so to find someone else (with that someone else being idia) that likes video games and is very well versed in them is a dream come true. it was a long process to get him to play with you, let alone consider you a friend and not try to avoid you every 2 seconds—still, it was a feat you were proud of because now you get to experience many, many different sides of idia that you would have never known 9 months ago.

(you once heard idia curse like at least twenty times in one breathe when one of his teammates was being shitty and a prick, he sounded so angry and scary that you backed into a corner to avoid getting burnt by his scorching, bright red hair that grew the more angrier he got. the only reason he stopped was when he heard quiet sobs in the corner of his room and turned around away from his computer to see you huddled in the corner of his room. quickly he went over there, completely abandoning his game and comforting you. he hates seeing his cute prefect cry, especially because of him, he's not the great at comforting but when he hugged you so tightly, your quiet sobs turned into silence. right then and there he swore to never be the reason you're crying and when you do, he'll be right there with you.)

you are currently cross-sitting in his very comfy bed, watching as idia set up two controllers and plugged in the PCs to turn them on (you're still surprised he's got more than 2 PCs, which, if you really think about it, his family background makes it make sense). after waiting for the PCs to turn on, he then connects the controllers to the PCs and opens up the game on both screens. you would insist on helping him set up, but due to you literally being isekai'd into this unknown world of twisted wonderland, you aren't too familiar with many things besides the whole magic stuff—plus, you aren't too keen on breaking any of idia's stuff because of your lack of knowledge on how to do technology.

(technology in general is so extremely confusing, you would argue wholeheartedly all day and all night, and idia would agree with you and low-key flex on how knowledgeable he is in the field of technology, just to impress you and show how reliable he is. secretly, he likes it when he's useful to you.)

"sorry! it took a while to set up..." in slightly shaking hands, he hands over the controller to you while holding the other in his free hand. he looked rather nervous when he faced you to give the controller, like he's worried he wasted your time waiting for him. it reminded you of a puppy looking up to its owner apologetically when they did something wrong, so cute, you thought, adorable even, you added.

"haha! it's okay! you didn't take that long anyway." you gave him a reassuring look, a soft smile, and bright eyes, showing him that you weren't bothered by having to wait a bit as he set up for you two to play.

both screens show the in-game loading screen, and the bar quickly fills up due to the fast internet speed (one you're quite envious of). slowly it fades to the starting screen, where a big text is bouncing 'tap to start' in both of your faces. Idia presses to start immediately, wanting to get into gameplay as fast as he can while you take a moment to admire the visual aspects and effects of the game in silent awe. you always had a thing for the visual stuff that was shown in-game. by slowly pressing the button on your control, you enter the game and begin a fantastical journey with idia.

“put that down! you’ll hurt yourself with that.” he says worriedly as he watches you damage your avatar's HP bar this early in gameplay. usually he gets really annoyed when he plays with noobs and normies; they stink at comprehending basic knowledge, do dumb things in-game, ask too many questions, and ruin the whole gameplay experience for him. 'ugh, how annoying.' is his usual reaction to such—of course he wouldn't think of that towards you! never ever would he ever think this way towards you; even if you do things noobs and normies usually do, he can't bring himself to be annoyed—you were too cute in his eyes. he would never admit this to your face, though, and he still gets red just at the thought of him thinking you are cute. It's true though; don't get him wrong, but... the embarrassment that comes with thinking about these thoughts is just too much for his poor little heart! honestly, he's for sure that one day you'll be the death of him, does he care though? not really; in fact, he would probably love that.

(he blushes so hard whenever he thinks of you in his clothes; it's the way your natural scent clings onto his shirts, the way his shirts made you even cuter than you already are—one of the only reasons he doesn't wash his clothes immediately because he wants to savor your smell to memory. he's a creep, yes, but he's one devoted creep.)

"whoops! sorry didn't see that, haha..." nervously laughing at your mistake, you eat whatever consumable you have in your inventory to try and restore as much health as you lost. as your avatar munches on the food in its hand, from the corner of your screen, you can see idia's avatar walking towards you. once it's near enough to your avatar, you can see the animation of a bunch of items being dropped and your inventory picking up due to the proximity between the items and your avatar. you opened your inventory, curious about what he just gave you since it looked like quite a lot of items, and confused about why he was giving you so many items in the first place. your eyes widen in shock as the items he's given you are one stack of steak, every weapon in-game (sword, axe, pickaxe, shovel, hoe), but in steel, and a full set of steel armor.

your mouth continues to gape open as you put on the armor set on your avatar. how did he get so much stuff this fast? it hasn't even been an hour yet! "where.. did you get so much stuff!?" you ask naively, following idia around as you don't want to get lost, die, and lose all your stuff. "stole half of those from villages, some from mining, and a few from trading" he says so casually as he continues to walk in an unknown direction, like this was a regular thing for him, not to mention this was a hard difficulty! he's playing this game like it's not easy mode! "could've gotten more if it weren't for those stingy mobs..." furrowing his eyebrows, he let out a small huff of frustration, pressing slightly harder on the buttons on his controller, not noticing how your mouth dropped down even further at his passing comment. as she presses on, walking in an unknown direction, you're hit with the hundredth reminder that he's on a whole other level than you when it comes to gaming.

three hours in, and you guys decided to play on public servers, where you'll get to play different game modes other than the usual story and survival modes. once the two of you picked a game to play, the room quickly filled with laughter, shouting, incoherent grumbling, screams of terror, and many more in between. you two decided to save a team game as last since idia wasn't enthusiastic about playing together with other players because he just wanted to play with you, and there was an underlying fear that you would encounter toxic teammates. but since you were practically begging him to just try it at least once, he couldn't help but give in to your pleas.

it was fun, he supposed. it wasn't as annoying or infuriating as he thought it would be, but he still had to keep up not making really snarky remarks when certain players were interacting with you. he'd hate to have you see such a mean, ugly, and disgusting side of him. other than that, it was an okay experience. he thinks it would've been better if it was just him and you on a team; wouldn't it be kind of romantic? you and him against everyone else?

then what he feared most would happen actually happened. suddenly some fucking jerk is screaming insults at you for not being good enough, and before that teammate got two more words in, he exploded on them. curses upon curses spit out his mouth in rapid speed, and the voices of that said teammate slowly but surely die down as their ego and pride go down with them. in the midst of anger and chaos between him and the teammate, you could feel tears building up inside you; everything around you started to blur, and the sounds that filled your ears were starting to get tuned out. you couldn't even hear that idia stopped screaming curses, turned off both PCs, and went to take the controller from your hand, lift you up into his lap, and slowly wrap his arms around you.

once he had you fully in his grasp, he tightened his grip, making sure not to let you get away from him. he wasn't good at words, especially when trying to comfort someone, but seeing you cry was making him cry too. he did, after all, swear to always be with you when you cry. raising one of his hands, he placed it at the back of your head and gently pushed towards his neck. then his hand went down to rub your back, up and down, up and down, at a slow pace. letting you cry it all out in peace while also letting you know he's there with you.

a few minutes have passed, and your sobs have gone silent. your eyes have become droopy and sleepy, and it feels almost impossible to keep them open. suddenly, a hand lifts your chin, and you feel a pair of lips come into contact with your forehead. it wasn't like a quick kiss; no, the kiss lasted for at least a few seconds before pulling away. even then, upon pulling away, you feel another kiss on your cheek, this time a little quicker than the forehead kiss. then another kiss on your other cheek, then another on your nose, another on your jawline, another on your earlobes, and finally, his lips hovered over your own lips.

you could feel the hesitation when he let out a nervous breath; the thought of your lips on his always sends him into an electrifying and drunken daze. he can't think straight when he's this close to you, but even then, it gives him an unusual feeling of contentment and confidence. the luck he has to be able to snag such an adorable, cute, amazing, and beautiful person like you in his life. he almost can't believe it. swallowing his own nervousness for your comfort, he presses against your soft lips delicately. soon after making physical contact with your lips, he feels a smile form on your face—a small smile, yet it was enough for him. any smile from you is enough for him, because seeing you happy is the best view he could ever lay his eyes on.

feeling out of breath, he's the first to let go but also the first to frown at the loss of touch. i want to stay like this forever, he thought as he watched you emit a giggle after the kiss. fire burns brightly in his heart, and he starts to wonder if you being the death of him will really come true. his cheeks burn that ever-warm red that he knows you've seen many, many times before, but he can't help it. when you pull him into a world through rose-tinted glasses, no way could he be immune to such an effect.

"i really can’t take it when you cry like that… smile for me, alright? you’re so pretty when you smile."

Alright, let's get this straight. You are praying for the Great Seven, or whatever it is in this TWISTED wonderland, to be transferred away from Pomefiore! (Pure crack content with a lil bit of yan spice~)

No, it's not fun having to do these damn skincare, especially with Vil around you, ready to reprimand you for slacking off! Posture check, outfit check, hairstyle check, fragrance check, dialect check! Rook is sure as hell happy to assist Vil in checking on you! He really should have just let Azul and Kalim fight about who gets to keep you in their dorm.

It feels like Vil is just living beneath your skin like the beautiful parasite he is now, so by all might after punching Crowley right in the guts, he hands you a phone. Well, technically, he's only lending you his spare phone, stingy.

"Aren't I very kin-" Another punch right on his jaw because his beak ass mask will hurt your fist.

Alright, an admission for NRC's dorm, this is it. This is your one and only chance to actually make Crowley agree to transfer you to another dorm.

He sure took his sweet ass time in introducing everything in that stupid voice of his but here comes the moment of truth! Just tap the screen and pray for the best. It's a 1/7 odd and you sure as hell wish you won't be transferred to Heartslabyul. Riddle's name alone is enough to make you think Vil might actually be a better choice here.

Savanaclaw sounds peaceful enough, Leona got that lil Ruggie around after all. Ignihyde is great, you can just be the little introverted ass you are and send some game invitations to Idia and Ortho every now and then.

But of course, Octavinelle is a great option to start. You have a high affinity with those sea mafia and you just have to be careful not getting tricked by their scheming nature.

Scarabia? Great. You got Kalim. He will spoil you rotten and squeal in joy the moment he knows you are transferring. You are not sure about Jamil though, seeing how he has to take care of 2 babies now but he will manage.

Last but not least, Diasomnia. While you do have a great relationship with Malleus and co, Lilia is the real highlight here. You get a friend whom you can actually drag into a fistfight like the good ol'days Lilia misses (does he?). You two are old old, it'll be nice being able to vibe with him more in pulling stunts plus your life there will be made easy by Lilia and Malleus.

So COME NOW! Do not shoot me into Hearslabyul by all means!

A hand takes away your phone before you can see the 2D character appears on the screen. You know damn well which dorm's uniform this is because well, you are wearing it right now.

""I am Pomefiore's dorm leader, Vil Schoenheit."" Uh-oh, not only are you shitting yourself over the 1/7 odd, why are you hearing double? (This really happened. I got Vil's despite trying to transfer them away in my first go.)

""Are you the new student?"" By all means, yes. Ignorance is bliss.

""Hmm? Well, you may have been sorted into Pomefiore in the first one go."" Oh great Seven, in TWO go. Don't look up, don't look up.

""But, you are still very naive."" You admit it, you are naive enough to not include Pomefiore in the 'Do not shoot me into Heartslabyul and Pomefiore by all means!'

Like the brat you are, you close your face with both hands and look up, "Oh my, housewarden Schoenheit, what are you doing here?" If you can't see him, he can't see you.

Well, that is until Rook pulls both your hands away from your face, "My, my, mon chèri, you shouldn't hide your beautiful face from us, do never shy your beauty away as you exist to enchant everyone."

Now you see Vil's feature being graced with a smile yet you can feel just how threatening his aura is right now. You are in a BIG trouble. Not only did the Great Seven grace your prayer of not getting transferred to Heartslabyul, but they also grace you back in this stupid 1/7 odd!

"Let's have a pleasant chat about this, shall we?" And with that, Vil drags you by the collar of your uniform like a stray cat you are, ready to be starved and drenched in cold water.

"Don't worry, I'll share my dinner with you later~" "Really-" "Rook, no."

PS: Turns out the person who alarmed Vil was Rook himself because well, he sees everything that you are doing, whether creepily or thoughtfully? Who knows~ Now you'll just have to hear Vil lecture you again.

PS 2: Epel thoughtfully shared 1/3 of his dinner in exchange for you teaching him how to fight bare-handed like a Savanaclaw.

Yuu can use magic but never bothered to correct anybody-Pomefiore+Ignihyde

Vil

good for you but you still have to apply the moisturizer he gave you

yeah you thought maybe it would cause Vil to let you leave finally because he has tried to give you a morning routine for two hours now, hell you can´t hear it but you know Epel is laughing at you

he doesn´t care that your a magic user but he´s glad that you are one, being an NRC student alone is stressful enough, especially is that student is you who always get´s into trouble, he can´t imagine being one that can´t use magic

and if you´re now openly using your magic you will have plenty of time to work on your image

you might not be a Pomefiore student but you´re close enough so he´ll treat you like one, he even gave you a dorm uniform and might have altered your old clothes so they look a bit more similar to his Dorm colors

Rook

did you want a weird stalker/hunter to follow you around? because telling Rook that you can use magic and that you managed to hide something like this will make him really interested in you

and having Rook interested in you isn´t a nice experience or it could be depends on how good you can hide, if you´re good at it it´s then it´s a really funny situation

but either way kinda a weird situation but it can turn into a weird but fun one

but be warned Rook will want to know your reasoning on why and will not stop until he knows

and this includes chasing you even in your homework

losing sleep isn´t fun though :(

Epel

he hit you after you told him that

not out of anger but both of you decided to fight with each other and he decided to take advantage of the fact you aren´t paying attention

a low blow but if you were in his shoes you would have done the same

but yeah he doesn´t care, he could never understand why you decided to hide but all in all he doesn´t care

he cares more about the fact you can kick ass and more importantly the asses of people who are bigger than you

now that´s the secret he wants to learn or he wants you to teach him how to kick ass

or at the least how to make someone fall to the ground so he can kick the shit out of them

Idia

he called you a loser for saying you can actually use magic but when you first came here saying you can´t

which in turn caused you to call him a loser and this built up so much until it ended in an insulting match and you made Idia cry

and at this point you decided to stop because you didn´t want Ortho to threaten to kill you again

also he looked so miserable you felt a little bit bad for him

actually you felt as bad for him as you usually do, he is a very miserable dude and not in the it makes him more attractive but in the holly shit how did this dude survive kinda way

and after making fun of him you decided to be nice enough to get him some snacks

which you shouldn´t really feel bad about it because if he could Idia would have also made fun of you

Ortho

he already knew you can use magic because he´s a mechanical being and all with the best technology Twisted Wonderland has to offer so it´s silly to think he wouldn´t know about it

but he´s glad you trust him enough to tell him that :D

that must mean both of you are great friends and that´s good news to him, maybe you could even befriend his Brother

he´s sure both of you could be great friends you have some similar interests!

okay yeah he could be a bit much sometimes buuut he would benefit from friends and Ortho will finally have some help to get Idia to do some healthy things, just getting him out for ten minutes would be enough for Ortho

maybe you could even teleport him outside, if your magic allows it that is…

[rendy-a]

Congratulations on 500 followers 🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉 hope you get more btw 🤗

Anyways so far the event reads are super entertaining and great so if its alr can i get yandere idia after the dance?? Ignore if you wish 👍

Funny thing about writing fics, sometimes you think your fic is a mess but when you reread over the draft, its not half bad.  I remember starting this out and thinking, if its after the dance, then surely, they have to meet in an unusual way because Idia won’t be coming to that dance by free will…

There were so many things to remember from this night; the dance, your outfit, and hanging out with both new and old friends.  As the lights flickered off in the gardens, you sadly realized the magical night was over.  Only, you knew you’d never be able to sleep after this much excitement.  Maybe that was why you’d agreed to stay behind and help pick up trash from the tables in the cafeteria.  Plus, you weren’t completely alone.  “Thanks for keeping me company, Ortho,” you say as you give the AI boy a smile.  “It was my pleasure, Prefect!” he cheerfully replies. 

You look around at the dim cafeteria and realize, “Gosh, it is so quiet in here with nobody around.”  Ortho takes on a look of calculation before replying, “You are correct, no other lifeforms are detected in over 100 meters from this position.”  You laugh at how he took your innocent comment and turned it into such a scientific response, “Good to know.  Now no one will hear me scream.  Just like a B Horror movie.”  Ortho looks very amused by this, “Are you a fan of B Horror movies, Prefect?  My brother loves those!  You should come over to Ignihyde sometime and watch one with us!”  Watch movies with Idia?  You didn’t want to say anything to Ortho about his brother but, honestly, you weren’t sure he even knew who you were.  Really, if it hadn’t been for the whole ‘kidnapped by a ghost’ thing, you wouldn’t know him either. 

“Oh yeah?  That sounds like, um, great fun.  We should totally hang out some time,” you end politely.  “Ah! I’m so happy you feel that way, Prefect!  I’d love for Brother to spend more time with you!” Ortho says happily with a hand to his mouth like he couldn’t contain his smile behind that metal cover.  “Yeah, why not.  You can let him know to come see me…just whenever it is convenient for you,” you say offhandedly.  “Transmission complete.” You look over, “Hmm?”  Oh, the table Ortho was working on was now clean and…you look down at your own area, so was yours.  In fact, you’d hardly noticed but you and Ortho had finished collecting all the trash in the room.  “I guess it is complete,” you say looking back at Ortho with a smile, “Do you need me to walk you home?” 

Ortho gets a mischievous look in his eye, “No, Prefect, I’ll be fine.  My brother equipped me with everything I needed for nighttime navigation.  He would do anything to make me happy and I’m sure he’d do the same for you too.”  You didn’t really know what to say so you stammered a reply, “I..I’m sure he would.”  This was apparently the correct answer as a very cheerful Ortho waved enthusiastically as he floated off.  You watch him go before turning to begin your own trek home. 

Good thing you weren’t afraid of the dark.  Otherwise, this campus could be a frightening place.  The gothic architecture reminded you of a vampire’s castle and the bats circling the towers did nothing do dispel that mood.  The eerie blue glow dancing across the pavers made the whole place seem like a path to an undead underworld.  Wait.  There shouldn’t be a blue glow on this path.  After all your earlier bluster, you were now generally freaked out.  You looked back, considering taking the back way home but that convoluted path would take you at least half an hour to walk.  No, you lived with ghosts, you could deal with whatever supernatural entity this was.  You’d just be careful.

You crept carefully down the path until you came to a glowing blue hedge.  You could see the eerie flames came from deeper within.  You gathered your courage and rushed forward, parting the hedge and shouting mightily, “Arrgghhhh!”  You had no plan but, luckily for you, you didn’t need one.  The frightened occupant of the hedge screamed louder than you did and fell back on his bottom, “AAAHHHH!”  You meet eyes and continue screaming for a solid twenty seconds until the flickering blue flames finally illuminated enough of his face for you to recognize your supernatural stalker was only Idia. 

“What are you doing here?” you hiss out quietly at the cowering dorm leader.  “You…you invited me, so I came!  B.but, I got nervous about random encounters and decided to take a pit stop to wait for my stamina to recharge,” he stuttered out.  You give him a puzzled look, “I…invited you?”  He flushes deeply and his hair gets a pink tinge to the ends, “Ortho, he passed on your message.  That, that you wanted to see me…to hang out…” Then he looks away, tapping his index fingers together like a schoolgirl.  Wait, what exactly had you said to Ortho?  “I thought I said he shouldn’t mention it until he saw you next.  I didn’t mean to drag you out of bed or anything.” 

Idia gets a rare sharp-toothed grin when explaining, “Ortho is set up with Wi-Fi, local transmission, and the ability to connect to outdated landline technology.  We are always in touch.”  Then he seems to feel overwhelmed about having said so much, “P.plus, I’m never asleep this early s.so, you shouldn’t worry about me.”  You still felt guilty, you had inadvertently dragged an introvert out into the wild with no real reason.  The guilt prompted you to come up with an impromptu excursion to drag your new acquaintance on.  “So, want to walk around the main street?  I guess you don’t really get to see the busy areas of the school much, huh?”  He blinks at you owlishly before giving you a shy grin and a nod. 

“Here are the Great Seven statues,” you remark in a very tour-guide tone.  You nod your head toward the stature of the Queen of Hearts, “Grim and I sort of burnt that one down once.”  Idia looks at you, “Oh yeah?” he drawls with a knowing grin.  “I…I mean we were MINORLY involved.  It was really Ace’s fault mostly!  I’m not some hoodlum or anything!” you hurriedly backtrack on that comment.  He pulls his hands into his body in surprise at your sudden outburst and stammers, “I…I know…I believe you.” 

You cringe at what a weirdo you sound like.  Not that you are the only one who had some weird moments this night.  Earlier, you’d randomly pointed out a bench you like to sit on, and Idia had taken a picture of it with his phone.  How much of a shut-in do you have to be before someone’s favorite bench seems picture worthy?  “Maybe next time we will sit on it together,” you’d joked only to have Idia flush instead of laugh.  Maybe he isn’t ready for jokes today.

Time for a topic change, “Which of the statues is your favorite?” you ask suddenly.  “Me?  You want to know my favorite? I never thought you’d want to know about me…” Idia trails off in a mumble before responding, “Ah!  I like the King of the Underworld.  A.and not just because I’m from Ignihyde!  He is just so cool.  He devotes himself to his work but still had time to find someone to make his bride.  I..I try to imitate his work ethic…and other things…”

The silence lingers after Idia finishes until he asks quietly, “Which one is your favorite?”    It was an interesting question as you had no dorm affiliation to influence your choice.  You don’t really want to think too hard about things in the middle of the night, so you shrug and point to one.  “Th.the King of Beasts?” Idia asks in surprise.  “Hmm,” you hum in agreement, “It’s a cat.”  Then you meet his eyes and burst out into laughter.  He surprises you by letting out a small chuckle too; I guess he is ready for some jokes after all.  “I didn’t know we had so much in common.  I also like kitties.” he says quietly before you nod toward the path and continue your way onwards toward Ramshackle. 

You reach the fence bounding the hill on which Ramshackle lies and lean onto it, weaving your arms between the spiked bars that top it.  “Home sweet home.  It doesn’t look like much now, but you should have seen it when it was all decorated up by Diasomnia during Halloween.”  He gives you a small smile and remarks, “I saw it.  I had Ortho fly over and take video for me.”  You bump him with your elbow, “Keeping an eye on me, eh?”  He does not take that as the joke you meant it to be and goes into a panicked fluster, “N.No!  Not..not at all!  It…It was for research purposes.  RESEARCH ONLY!”  You laugh, “Relax, I’m only teasing you.”  He was fun to tease, you decide.

“I thought it looked great.  I was sort of jealous of the costumes.  I think it would have been fun to dress up in one,” you muse, allowing the subject to change.  “Do..do you like to cosplay?” Idia asks carefully.  “Hmm, I don’t know if like is really the word.  Maybe say I’m interested in it,” you say as you think it over, “Like when you see a really great costume online and it makes you feel excited to try it out.  You know?”  You push back from the wall and give Idia a nice smile as you seek out his acknowledgment.  He returns your smile, “Yeah, like sometimes you see something really cute and think ‘I wonder what they’d look like in this.’” 

“They?” you tease, “Who is they?  Do you have a special someone Idia?”  If you thought you’d flustered him before, that was nothing to the reaction you got now.  The tips of his hair turned so crimson that, for a moment, the blaze was red-hot enough to warm you.  “NO!  I DON’T HAVE ANYONE IN MIND!  But I mean if I did, I wouldn’t brag about it to everyone, I’d keep them safe and secret.  It would be great to have a person to do this sort of thing with.  Maybe someday…”  From there, you aren’t sure if his mumbles get too quiet or if you are laughing too loudly to hear them. 

Then you reached your door and stopped at the entry to say goodnight to your companion.  “That was a fun time.  You should get out more often.”  He looks at the ground mostly, but you catch him gazing at you through his lashes as he says, “If you invite me, I’ll come again.”  You smile, “Sure.  I don’t mind, its not like you kept me waiting or anything.”  Idia’s expression becomes deathly pale, and his mouth works without producing any sound.  “Oh, don’t worry.  I’m not mad.  Even though you took that rest in a bush, you still showed up surprisingly fast.  I’m surprised you managed to get there that fast from Ignihyde and all.  What, did you actually jog all that way?  I think there must be a surprising amount I don’t know about you, Idia Shroud.”  Then, with a wave of your hand, you slipped inside and left the shocked Idia standing at your doorway.  He really was easy to tease. 

As you climb the stairs to your room you are stuck with your parting statement.  You hadn’t consciously thought about it, but Idia HAD appeared in that bush far faster than he’d have been able to if he came from Ignihyde.  Had he been on campus doing something?  Idia the famous introvert?  Now, when it was too late to ask, you wonder what he might have been doing prior to meeting up with you.  Perhaps, if you ever met up again, you’d remember to ask him what had interested him enough to tear him out of his room while everyone else was dancing. 

The whole ‘hang out’ had taken a surprisingly short amount of time, only around half an hour.  But after the long dance and clean-up were added in, it was enough to make you ready to turn in for the night.  So, you shucked off your formal wear and put on a comfy outfit and headed to bed.  You grab the top layer of bedding and fold it over giving yourself a way to slide into bed.  Before you can though, you puzzledly examine your pillow.  A single strand of writhing blue hair lays upon it.  You twirl it around in your fingers, ‘I guess it must have transferred to me from earlier and fallen off,’ you think.  How odd but…not odd enough to keep you up longer.  You flick your fingers, sending the wayward strand floating off to the floor to be swept up some other day. 

Then you slip inside your comfy bed and let your mind wander as it does before sleep claims you.  I wonder if Idia gets hot when he is in bed?  That flame hair must heat things up pretty fast.  Funny to think about because tonight, you feel like your own bed is somehow still warm as though remembering the heat of a recent occupant.  But that just must be your imagination.  A bed can’t stay warm all day like that.

Until I Found You, Pt. 6

[Pt. 1], [Pt. 2], [Pt. 3], [Pt. 4], [Pt. 5], [Pt, 6]

Warning: F!reader, Rollo being a Malleus hater, event spoilers, mock kidnapping, NRC students being NRC students, Eliott and Jules being menaces to society, Rollo being jealous, and blot

Characters: Rollo, Eliott (Oc), Jules (Oc), Malleus, Silver, Sebek, Idia, Rook, Epel, Jamil, Azul, Ruggie, Riddle, Deuce, Yuu, Grim, Professor Trein, a few Oc's here and there. Neige, Chen'ya

Summery: It was finally the day of the week long festival! And it was time you did your duty as a student in Nobel Bell College, but it also meant meeting the person who was in the same situation as you.

“Did you see the NRC and RSA students?”

“Wow! I never thought I would be able to see Neige Leblanche up close!”

“Did you see that guy with silver hair? He looks like a prince!”

Voices of both boys and girls mingle together as they talk about the newly arrived NRC and RSA students. You hadn’t been able to see them yet, having risen early to get everything you needed along with the two outfits you were going to wear for the performances. Just alone from the conversations you had been hearing all morning, you could tell that the people who came here today weren’t just anyone. 

A prince, an actor and model, a son of a noble family from the Queendom of Roses, a second year who was known for his booming business at such a young age, and the heir to the Shroud family business. Those were some of the things you managed to hear from the two girls who were accompanying you for the first performance. You had expected to meet and see many people from different social standings, but expecting and actually doing so were two different things. 

With a clammy hand, you continued to brush down Snowflake’s mane, the black stallion calmly eating the almonds you had brought to keep him in good spirits and calm. Though, you were starting to think that the one who needed to keep calm was you. You had practiced your routine for almost two months, way before decorations for the Masquerade Ball started to appear on peoples’ houses and the school. 

You practically knew the routine by heart! But that didn’t stop the nervous tremor you felt in your hands. This was different, all of this was new to you. Performing for a group of royals and nobles was already nerve wracking, but performing in front of a crowd of people who saw you on the daily really made your head dizzy. If you mess up, the royals and nobles will speak about it but won’t ever see you again.

But the people who lived in the city and attended NBC would most certainly see you everyday and remember your failure.

“Great seven…I’m not up to performing yet and I am already getting myself nervous.” You told your stallion, running your fingers through his mane. He huffs, a crunch leaving his mouth as he continues to chew on the almonds. The stables were the least packed, most of the performers had taken their horses outside in order to get some last minute preparations.

You had decided to stay inside with a few others, far too nervous to face the crowd that you were sure had formed just outside the battle arena. Instead, for the past hour or so you spend them going over the song you were to perform as the closing event. It was a classic one, originating from the City Of Flowers. And for whatever reason, they decided that you were to perform it.

“Maybe you've heard of a terrible place where the scoundrels of Paris collect in a lair.” You hummed under your breath, the familiar tune you had come used to hearing after countless hours of practice coming out of your throat easily. Snowflake’s ears perked up at the sound of your voice, his hoofs tapping on the dirt ground. Seems like he also recognized the lyrics. Smiling, you patted his neck before putting away the brush and taking the empty snack bucket. 

The rest of the song came out clearly, Snowflake dancing along with it, happy little huffs leaving his nose. The nerves in your body melted little by little as you went over your routine with the black stallion. By the time you finished going over the routine you had been filled to the brim with energy. 

“Ok, we got this Snowflake! All we have to do is keep calm.” He huffed, almost as if telling you that he was not nervous to begin with. You rolled your eyes, a small grin on your lips. “Yeah, yeah, I was nervous for the both of us.” Glancing at the time on the clock hanging by the stables’ double doors, you curse under your breath. 

“Shit, I gotta go and get changed.” Calling over one one of the stable boys, you instructed him in what to do with Snowflake. Then, you rushed out of the stables with a few of the other performers and into the changing rooms. One of the girls handed you a yellow dress, brown riding boots, and a deep blue coat. “Good luck [name]!” Giving her a rushed thanks, you changed as best as you could.

With some help, your hair was done in a style that would keep it away from your face. Some light make-up was added and with that, you were already mounting Snowflake. Pulling on the reins, you directed the horse towards the line of other horses. Glancing behind you, you casted an encouraging smile to one of the girls performing with you. She gave you a nod, her brown eyes glinting with excitement.

You could already hear the crowd inside, all anticipating the performance so they could start the week officially. Rubbing your palm against your stallion, you took another deep breath and put on your best smile. Once you got this done and over with, you would be able to spend the rest of your day with Rollo. 

“We will now be presenting the Equestrian Club!” 

And with that, all ten selected club members guided your horses to the battle arena, bright smiles and ready to perform.

_____

Rollo covered his lower face with his purple handkerchief, a frown present on his lips. He watched the NRC and RSA students mingle with each other, speaking and laughing in excitement. Their black and white uniforms make them stand out like a sore thumb among the festive outfits the citizens of the City of Flowers wore and Nobel bell students still wearing their school uniform. Glancing at the city’s clock, he sighs, your performance won’t be until a few more minutes. He hadn't been able to see you for most of the morning, his duty as student president prevented him from leaving early as he had to show their guests around.

It would have been fine if not for the fact that the moment the NRC students arrived they started to show off whatever magic they had. That put a bitter taste on his tongue and soured the majority of his morning. He was grateful to Eliott who quickly took over when it became clear that Rollo wouldn’t be able to stay quiet about their magic use.

“Why is everyone heading over there?” Yuu, the magicless human Crowley had mentioned in his letter, asked him. He was painting towards the battle arena where he knew you were probably getting ready. “It is tradition to start the week-long festival with a performance and a traditional song from the City of Flowers.” Rollo explained, lowering his handkerchief to speak properly to Yuu.

“In a few minutes, members of the Equestrian Club will perform a small show, and lastly, one of the members will perform an old traditional song. After that, the festival will officially begin.” Yuu nods in understanding. “So it’s like an opening ceremony?” The third year president nods. 

“The festival hasn’t started?” Rollo suppresses the want to roll his eyes. Turning to face the very bane of his existence, Malleus Draconia, he nods. “Yes, I will guide you to the battle arena before the ‘annual hunt’ begins.” Jules nods, his eyes scanning the area. “I think it will be best to leave now, while there isn’t a big crowd.” His secretary adds.

A few of the NRC students furrow their eyebrows in confusion, others looking around the area. “What is this ‘annual hunt’?” Rook peaks up after a few seconds of silence. Jules and Eliott share a look, both of them look unsure of whether they should just tell them in case they are selected. Rollo could see the conflict and familiar mischief swimming in their eyes.  

He gave them a blank look, while it would be amusing to see one of them get selected for the annual hunt, he didn’t want to run the risk of them using magic as self defense thinking that they would get kidnapped. Even if the ones doing the hunt use a magic nulling spell, there could be some sort of repercussion. Turning to face the invited students, he is about to explain what is the annual hunt when a puff of smoke appears in the middle of their formed circle. 

‘Too late’ he thinks as four more clouds of smoke appear, clearly a coordinated attack. Instantly, Silver and Sebek form a protective barrier in front of Malleus, their magic pens out and ready for attack. Deuce stands in front of Riddle in a protective manner, pen out as Riddle covers his back. Epel and Rook put their backs together, eyes sharp while their hands on their magical pens, not taking them out just yet. Ruggie, Jamil, and Azul get into an attack position, each ready to attack if needed to. Idia lets out a whimper, shrinking into himself with fear and shock written all over his face. 

The only ones who don’t move are Rollo, Jules, and Eliott. The three of them simply stood back, already knowing where this was heading. So much for trying to get to the battle arena before the group of ‘hunters’ appeared. “A boss battle this soon in the event?!” Idia said, voice trembling. “Who are you?! And what do you want?!” Demanded Riddle, glaring furiously at the five selected hunters for this year.

“Now, now gentlemen! There is no need to be hostile!” The leader of the hunt, a blonde girl, said. Her hands raised in mock surrender. She was sporting a yellow jester outfit, a black and yellow mask on her face, making it hard for Rollo to tell who it was. “We have come in humbling peace!”

The bells in her hat ring with each movement she does, the other hunters, dressed as different color jesters Rollo noticed, all follow along. A purple jester hums a tune under his breath, and Rollo already knows who Purple jester had picked out of the students. A red jester walks towards him, his brown eyes looking over at the third year with interest before walking away in favor of looking at Neige.

Neige smiles nervously, hiding behind Chenya who looked intrigued by the five different color jesters. A blue jester stands near Malleus, Silver, and Sebek, eyeing the two guards and from where Rollo stands, he could see him thinking about the pros and cons in taking one of the guards. And the final jester, one dressed in green skips around Idia, smirking at the way the blue haired boy shrinks into himself even further. 

“President! You don’t mind if we snag one or two of your esteemed guests do you?” Yellow jester says, hands on her hips. Rollo looks at her, then at the students. They all look at him, confused and a little worried. Their magical pens are still out but he could see how some of them start to lower them. “We just want to show the two specials selected to the V.I.P. room where our esteem judge is!”

At this, Rollo perks up, “So, she really was selected to play the part of the judge this year?” Yellow nods, tiny smirk on her lips. He did know you had a solo performance to do, but he didn’t know if it had been for the part of the judge/jester, or if you were just one of the backup vocals. 

“Very well, whoever you choose, please do handle them with care.” Placing his handkerchief up to his lips, Rollo hides the tiny smirk forming on his lips. Eliott sniggers while Jules jabs him on the ribs, trying to contain his own laughter. “W-What?!” Exclaimed Epel, anger clear in his face. “Yall just gonna let us get taken?!” 

“You will be fine.”

His response only made them even more agitated. Good, they were starting to get on his nerves. 

“Where will they be taking us?” Riddle asked, trying to suppress his rage.

“Who is this Judge person?” Deuce added, his blue eyes eyeing weary at the blue Jester who was circling him and Riddle like a shark.

“Better yet, what do you mean by two of us?” Silver spoke up, aurora eyes glaring at the yellow jester. She laughs, her bells jingling along with her. Rollo sighs, then steps aside. “Take whoever you want, but do so with haste. Or we will be late.” 

“Oh shoot! Right you are Mr. President!” Clapping her hands, she points at the purple jester and red jester. “Let’s hurry! We mustn't make our dear judge wait!” And with a snap of her fingers, purple and blue jester lunged at Idia while red and green jester lunged at Neige.

It all happened in a blink of an eye. 

Without having any time to cast a single spell, Idia was already being carried like a sack by the purple jester, a scream so loud pierced the town square where they all were standing. The blue jester mumbled the familiar incantation and in an instant, whatever spell Idia had thought of using vanished. 

Neige also led out a loud squeal as the red jester carried him bridal style as the green jester did the exact same thing as the blue jester. And in quick fast jumps, they all landed where the yellow jester was. The rest of the students screamed the names of the other two, ready to lunge at the hunters when in a fluid and elegant motion, the yellow jester moved her hand into the air and just like they made their grand entrance, purple smoke blinded them momentarily. 

The echo of their laughter was all they could hear as the two students that had come with them vanished alongside the hunters. Huffing, Rollo put away his handkerchief and casted a quick wind spell, airing out all the purple smoke. The hunters were long gone, only a yellow and black handkerchief left behind. Once everything was clear, he turned to face the remaining students. 

“What the hell was that?!” Exclaimed Epel, eyes trained on Rollo angrily. “And what was with letting them take Idia and Neige?!”

“We have to go and rescue them!” Exclaimed Deuce. “Are they in any kind of trouble? They mentioned a judge, and by the looks of it, you seemed to know who it was.” Added Riddle, gray eyes staring at where Idia had been standing. “Do not fret, they are fine.” He finally said, “Let us go to the battle arena before we miss the opening ceremony.”

“And what about Neige and Idia?” Azul points out, he still looked frazzled about the whole ordeal. “Why were they even dressed like that?” Grim grumbled from where he was in Yuu’s arms. Both the magicless human and cat monster had decided to hide behind the statue of the fair judge until the cost was clear. Not that Rollo blames them, for the years he had stayed here, not once had he been picked. 

And it was mostly because he either sacrificed someone, or hid very well so they weren’t able to grab him. Much like now. 

“As I have said, they are fine. No harm will come to them,” He began walking towards the battle arena. Jules and Eliott to his left and right. “Now I suggest we hurry unless you wish to miss the opening ceremony.” Jules turns to face them, an apologetic (Rollo knows that it was a mocking smile) smile on his lips. “Worry not, I will explain who they were and why they took your two companions as we make our way to the battle arena.”

That seemed to put most of them at ease. Chenya smiles, eyes flashing with interest as he makes his way to Jules and wraps an arm around his neck. “Oh, now this just sounds like something mew would like to hear.”

‘Great Seven, please help me keep my sanity’ 

Shaking his head, Rollo leads the group to the opening ceremony. 

_____

If heaven was on earth, it was at this very moment. When they had announced for the Equestrian Club to make their entrance, Rollo’s eyes had immediately searched for you in the crowd of yellow dresses and suits. Once they landed on you, the world seemed to blend in the back as he watched you throughout the whole first half of the performance. 

The way you seemed to guide Snowflake in elegant movements following your fellow clubmates left him breathless. The smile on your lips, shine in your eyes, and little waves you did for the crowd had his eyes glued to you. He fiddled with his magic ring, finding it grounding him as he continued to observe you. 

Slplitted into two teams of five, he watched as you and four others ran the horses and jumped obstacle courses. The other group of five would trout around the edge, waving at the crowd while handling flowers and bead necklaces. 

From the corner of his eyes, he could see how Riddle, Silver, and Sebek stared at the group who was performing elaborate tricks in amazement. “Wow…I didn’t know they could be maneuvered in such a way.” Said Silver in amazement, aurora eyes following one of the riders. Riddle nods in agreement, “Most of what we do is focused on racing other than performing arts.”

Sebek didn’t say anything, but his electric yellow eyes kept trailing behind one of the riders, interested in them as he saw how they did another high jump. Malleus hums, interest flashing in his green eyes as he keeps a close eye on the riders handing out flowers. Rollo gave a suitable nod to one of the riders, who understood immediately as she galloped towards them. 

“Welcome to the City of Flowers! May your visit here be one to remember!” Handing Azul, Jamil, Ruggie, and Riddle a red rose, she made her way towards Deuce, Silver, Malleus, Yuu, and Grim. “Here you go! A flower to represent an everlasting friendship.” Each one of them got a yellow rose. After she finished handing them one, she moved on to the next group. 

“Rollo, we got word of the last guest that was supposed to be the chaperon for both NRC and RSA.” Whispered Eliott to his right, a tablet in his hands. Pulling away from your figure, he gestures at him to continue. “He will be arriving in around ten to twenty minutes, there has been a delay with his trip but he should be able to make it before the ceremony comes to an end.”

Profesor Mozus Trein, he had volunteered to be the chaperon for both schools, however, he couldn’t be there when Rollo had gone to greet the students. Apparently, he had some issues with his familiar that he couldn’t ignore. “When did you receive the notification?”

“About twelve minutes ago.” Eliott responded after checking his tablet. Rollo nods, “Send one of the members from the student council to go wait for him at the magic mirror. It shouldn’t be long before he arrives.” 

“Alright, I’ll send Catherine then.” Typing away in his tablet, Eliott turned to Jules and began discussing the next planned events they had for their guests. Rollo went back to look at you, however, he noticed that someone else had their eye on you. 

Malleus Draconia

The fae prince had a small gentle smile (it would have looked sadistic to anyone else) as he gazed at you. Something aching to tenderness flashed in his deep green eyes. Rollo felt himself sneer and quickly covered his lower face with his handkerchief. Something ugly twisted in his chest, it made him feel bitter. 

Suddenly, your eyes met him and you beamed at him like you always have. And in an instant, the feeling vanished as it was replaced with gentle warmth. You raised your hand, excitedly waving at him, the sun casting warm rays to your face, illuminating your natural beauty even further. He felt himself smiling like a fool, and without even noticing, he had raised his hand in a half waive. 

That seemed to boost up your energy as your face flushed pink and a dazzling smile covered your face in pure joy. Guiding Snowflake towards the other set of obstacles, he watched as you ran with your other four clubmates, more energy in each movement than before. 

Someone hummed cheerly in his left ear, startling him. Turning to face the cause of the sound, he almost shrieked as the floating head of Chen'ya greeted him. The cat beastman chuckles, a smile too wide for his face breaks out as the rest of his body appears before him. “Why dear president~ I had no clue you had a lover performing. I wonder, is that why you were in such a hurry to get us here?”

Something about the tone Chenya used was getting on his nerves. It may have been the teasing tilt or the obvious mockery, either way Rollo didn’t like it. Glaring at the cat, he simply turns to face the performance. “She is simply a friend of mine, it’s her first time performing and she wanted me to be here.”

“Mmm, my, my, friends?” Leaning in further, the purple haired boy hums. “Are you sure that is all you feel for the little birdy?” 

“I don’t know what you are insinuating.” 

Leaning back, the cat gives him a shit eating grin. “I am just saying, if you don’t act quick, a little dragon may steal that birdy from you.” At the implication, Rollo feels a wave of anger hit him. Before he could respond back, Riddle had reached forwards and pulled Chenya by the collar of his sweater. “Chenya! What have I told you about instigating fights?!”

The cat laughs, “Sorry, sorry, I just wanted to have a nice little chat with the president.” He looked anything but sorry. Frowning, he gave the boy a pointed look. “I would appreciate it if you don’t stick your nose where it doesn't belong.” His voice was so cold that it even startled Riddle.

“I apologize on his behalf, Rollo. I will make sure this doesn't happen again.” Pulling the boy away from the white haired boy, Riddle once again offers another apology and walks away with Chenya, scolding him about manners. 

“Honestly, who does he think he is…” He mumbles slowly under his breath. Huffing, he goes back to watching the performance, yet the words Chenya spoke to him bounced inside his mind. Without thinking, he glances towards Malleus. The fae was staring at another rider, but his eyes flickered to you every once in a while. 

Shaking his head, Rollo tried to rationalize that Malleus simply looked at you like that because he may have never seen people perform with horses until today. He reeked of child amazement the longer he looked at the performers. 

Nothing more, nothing less.

Blot, blot, blot…

Staggering at the sudden vision, you lean on Snowflake for balance. The horse huffs as if concerned and stops moving once you reach the stables. Blinking away the blurriness, you swore you had seen black ink drop right in front of you and into a puddle. 

“What the hell…” You mumbled, head feeling a little fuzzy. “Hey, you alright [name]?” Asked one of your clubmates. Her blue eyes glancing at you with worry. Giving her a strained smile, you nod. “Yeah, just a little thirsty. Don’t worry, I will get some water before the last performance.” She doesn't look convinced but nods nonetheless. 

Guiding Snowflake into one of the stables with water, you leave him there and go to your changing room in order to take a break before the next performance. 

_____

Yuu blinks away the wave of dizziness he suddenly has. Grim yelps as he is almost dropped to the ground the moment Yuu stagers forward. Deuce, who was next to him, manages to steady him before he could fall to the ground. “Whoa! You alright?!” Asked his blue haired friend, eyes glancing at him with concern.

Epel helps him settle Yuu in one of the nearby chairs, his baby blue eyes looking just as concerned as he felt. Waving them away, he gives them his best convincing smile. “I-I’m fine, it's probably just the heat of the sun mixed with the excitement of the crowd.” 

It wasn’t the full truth, but he couldn’t tell them why he had almost fainted. Deuce and Epel share a look, “Have you gotten enough sleep prefect?” Said Deuce, eyeing him cautiously. “Or did you barely sleep because of the excitement of going on this trip?” Added Epel while giving him the same look.

“He actually woke up pretty early.” Grim finally spoke from his position on the ground. Both boys turn to look at him and Yuu glances away with a wince. He had another weird dream, the usual ones he had when someone was about to overblot. He had tried to piece it together to figure out who may be the next victim. 

But the dream didn’t fit anyone on campus. 

And now that he had another vision, this one showing the blot accumulation, he was sure that the person who would overblot wasn’t from his school or RSA. His brown eyes glanced at Rollo, Jules, and Eliott. The three of them huddled in a circle, looking at something Eliott was showing them. Yuu had a hunch that this time, the victim was going to be one of them.

And if his hunch was correct, it may be Rollo.

Yuu had no clue what Chenya had told the third year, but it must have struck a nerve if even Riddle flinched at the tone Rollo had used. No one had seen the interaction, and Yuu had only managed to witness it when he noticed that Chenya and Riddle were not next to him as they had been moments prior. 

“Yeah…I was excited for the trip and ended up waking earlier than planned. I couldn’t go to sleep after that.” Yuu laughed awkwardly as he rubbed the back of his neck. Epel shook his head, “Ya need to take care of yourself prefect.” Yuu chuckles but nods along. 

Looking towards the left, he sees Malleus looking at the place where the performance had taken place. A far away look in his green eyes. He wondered what he was thinking about. Shrugging, he went back to focusing on Deuce and Epel, both talking about the tricks the horses had done. 

Yuu prayed that he was wrong about the next blot victim.

Info on the event:

In this au, the festival has a tradition in where five different color jesters will appear and take two people before the opening ceremony begins

The five color jesters are called hunters

The judge mentioned is not related to Frollo, it will make more sense once I post the other chapter as to why they call the reader 'judge'

In case you haven't figured it out, yes Rollo will be overblotting

Neige and Chen'ya will be more included in this au

Eliott and Jules like tormenting people

Fun fact, did yall know that Frollo's horse's name was Snowball, I decided to use that in my favor

Idia Shroud (VC ghost!Reader x Online Friend!Idia) 

genre: horror

note: just…bad use of gaming lingo, might rewrite

summary: Idia has this unprecedented confidence behind the screen, with fans and friends at his fingers. However, one casual online chat broke his confidence as he say something he can’t take back.

series index

“Hah, that was basically a speedrun!”

Idia was right in his element, breezing through his game while raking in the rewards. He was worried about the final boss encounter since he was left with a lot of newcomers but he should have known that he had nothing to worry about. Not since he met you, an online chat friend.

0therw0rld: awesome job! :) 

Gloomurai: lol it was srsly way too easy

He met you in a random server chat while he had to look for a replacement member for a joint event but you pulled your weight and gained Idia’s respect. 

Just a sliver, he claims. 

0therw0rld: u gonna keep going? 

He watched the chat and pondered on the question. He didn’t need to but he thought he might as well grind for a while. 

Gloomurai: prob yea 

0therw0rld: cool I’ll stay too

The blue-flamed gamer didn’t think too much of it. Since adding you to his friend list, he noticed that you never seem to be the overbearing type so he kept you around. Unlike some gamers he met over the years, you weren’t the type to turn your mic on or request anything too crazy to trade which he appreciated. You’re always the first to send congratulatory messages and are open to sudden grinding sessions with him. He was comfortable with you. You were chill, he thought.

Until today. 

0therw0rld: hey… we’re friends right? :)

This surprised Idia. He wasn’t the type to go out of his way to engage with others for the purpose of making friends, he was no normie. But, he felt slightly bad if he were to reply anything other than yes, after all you two have been through together. 

Gloomurai: yea i guess?

He replied, and you instantly wrote back. 

0therw0rld: that’s great. That makes me happy :)

Idia was started to get goosebumps over this 180 change in your online tone. You were chattier than usual and for some unknown reason, Idia keeps getting chills running down his spine. Like warning bells were ringing in his subconscious, alerting him of something. It’s probably his social anxiety, he figured. 

There was activity in the chat box. You started typing again. 

0therw0rld: we should hang out :) 

Gloomurai: like in chat?

0therw0rld: no. irl :)

Idia let out a high-pitched yelp, not expecting a request like that! Idia felt utterly betrayed! He thought you were above that socializing nonsense. The gaming community had an unspoken rule of not meeting in real life and you just broke it so nonchalantly. 

0therw0rld: can’t we? :( 

Idia was in a bind. He somewhat resented you for suddenly pulling this on him but you never asked for anything until now. If he declines, he worries that he might end up losing a valuable gaming companion and he’ll be stuck with new gamers with poor stats again. 

Then, Idia remembers. You wouldn't know where he lives, he never mentioned his general location and he could always change the subject or pretend to have something come up. You’ll never know, right? It’s perfect. Ah, the beauty of virtual chat and its advantages, for Idia at least.

Gloomurai: yea sure! 

0therw0rld: really? :)

Gloomurai: sure np

He’s a genius, Idia mentally praised himself to the point he got distracted basking in his quick-thinking that he hadn't noticed you were still typing until the sound of the ping echoed from his computer. He looked at the message and froze. 

0therw0rld: great I’ll come now :)

Wait. What?

Gloomurai: u wanna come now? 

0therw0rld: yea:)

0therw0rld: u live alone, right? :)

Idia felt the blood in his veins chill. On the chat screen, under your message, he saw a link with an address pinned, the address to his location. There it was, to the letter and even the exact number of his home.

You shouldn’t know that. No one should know that. 

Idia hastily brought up a screen and checked his settings and programs. The protection systems and installments he placed before should have prevented anyone from figuring his IP address or GPS location. 

Yet, you knew, seemingly proud with that damned smiley face of yours.

0therw0rld: I’ll be there soon :) 

The smile that usually accompanies your messages is getting to Idia. It’s not cute anymore and instead he feels a growing sense of dread at that seemingly innocuous symbol, the uncomfortable confidence in your messages. The short but clear words conveyed your intent like you were watching him, taunting him, 

Warning him. 

Idia hastily closed the chat box, exited the game without a glance or worry about saving his progress and cleared any running programs associated with the game. He couldn’t look at the game right now. He didn’t want to even think about it because if he did, he would visualize the messages you left and your smiling signature. 

This is all a dream, a really bad dream. You couldn't be coming here after impossibly finding him. All of the previous confidence Idia had just moments were drained out from him and he try to figure out what to do.

"I know! I'll leave and stay at a hotel." Idia thought, springing to his feet and rushing to get his keys. He grabbed the rest of his essentials and was about to reach for his front door when...

Knocking.

There were knocks coming from the other side of the door. At this late hour? When he wasn't expected a delivery or service.

No.

No.

No!

Idia flinched when a sound of a notification set off on his phone, the screen light up to grab his attention. It shouldn't be possible for any of this to happen. This can't be real, Idia begged to no one and anyone. With shaking hands, Idia forced himself to lift the phone to face the screen his way and at the top of his screen with a pair of dots and a curve to resemble a smile, a message.

0therw0rld: I'm here Idia :)

Knock, knock, knock

Common Ground (2/3)

Pairing(s): Idia Shroud/Reader

Warning(s): Symptoms of Depression, Reader is g/n, reader uses (they/them) pronouns

a/n: If someone tells me to stop I swear I will

After that day, you frequented the Shroud brothers in their shared room. Oftentimes, Ortho would sneak out unnoticed, and leave the two of you alone. You and Idia geeked out about loads of things. But it wasn't long before something else had stewed in the school, and you were dragged elsewhere.

"What did you want to talk about?" The floating tablet asked.

"I'm being forced as the manager for the boys in the VDC, so I won't be able to hang out for the next month or so." You explained, your sadness evident.

"What? But we haven't even got through season 6 of 'I'm An Old Lady but my Husband is a Hot Vampire!' Or gotten through the boss rush in-"

"I know, I know," you whined "But it's only for like a month or so," you tried to rationalize it, but you sighed say it out loud.

"Normies have to do normie things, It's whatever..." He said as he abruptly hung up. He knew this was coming. You were social, and he wasn't. You have shared interests, sure, but you lived two completely separate lives. You came from another world for the seven's sake.

He got up from his chair at his desk and flopped on to his bed. He pulled up his tablets receiver and called it back so he'd have something to do. He'd always been alone, this wasn't anything new.

He didn't want to admit he'd grown attached to you.

~

Idia was in trouble. Two weeks had passed since the last conversation you had. His grades were slacking, his mood was lacking, and most importantly, he could barely focus on staying at the top of the leaderboard in every game he played.

"This is the worst..." He mumbled as he logged off his computer. Usually he could handle trash talking, making up for it with his skills. But lately he'd been all bark and no bite.

He didn't want to leave his room, but worse than usual. He didn't want to play games anymore. He didn't want to do anything. He only wanted...

He knew what, and why, but he'd be dammed if he admit it.

'At least, out loud...I won't say I...-'

His thought was interrupted by Ortho coming back from his usual social hour around the school.

"Brother! I have a message for you." He greeted,

"Trash it..." He mumbled as he walked over to his bed.

"It's a recorded message from the prefect." He added, Idia froze his steps. Every day you sent him messages or chats about how you were doing. He ignored them all, but you never stopped.

"...play the recording..." He said quietly. For the first time in two weeks, he heard your angelic voice.

"Hey, Idia..." You sounded so dejected...why?

"I don't know if you've been getting my messages or my game requests, but do you want to play Karma: The Revenge with me...? I've got some time tonight, ah, you can have Ortho send me a reply...or you don't have to reply at all...I just wanted to see if you...mm, nevermind, let me know your answer, okay?"

"Recording ended." Ortho chirped. Oh great seven, you sounded just as depressed as he did. He was sure you were entertained with practicing with the VDC boys. They had to be good, right? But here you were wanting to play games with him, like you had been all week.

"T-Text them a reply..." He said slowly,

"What do I say?"

"I don't know! I haven't talked to them in two weeks! I've been so out of it and downright depressed- I just- send them something I would say!"

"Sent."

"Great, what did you send?"

"What you said."

"Huh?"

"You said send them something you would say, so I sent what you said."

"...huh..?" 

[lowkeyclueless5137]

Oho? I really love that!

Mine actually work a bit different (quite a lot actually, especially near the end), but I also love yours.

The ending is bittersweet, but still have room for future happy ending. I want happy endings.

You can definitely use it as a background lore for your own Rapunzel Idia AU. While I don't fully know about that AU of yours, may I share little ideas of how they (Floyd and Riddle) get together and even what happen afterwards the whole event of this?

Ok, let's start with what happens to Riddle after he partway with Floyd:

It start with the Queen lead him to room not far from her own. The old Queen was so gentle towards Riddle. Just like you said, she has no family. Her husband and child die during a war many years ago, leaving her alone to rule the Queendom. The doctor was the one that take care of her during the worst moments of her life. They had know each other for years, for the doctor's family has always served the royal family for generations. She do see him as her own younger brother.

Riddle in all but blood, is the next heir of the Queendom. Despite all of her abuse, Mrs Roseheart do taught Riddle politics beside medicine and other knowledges. Meaning Riddle is actually quite knowledgeable and fit to become a ruler.

Anyway, the Queen then lead him to the room. In there stood a middle aged man with rose colored hair. Despite the wrinkles around his eyes, you could still see the youth of his face. A face that quite resemble Riddle's more feminine one.

It was his father, whisper the Queen to Riddle's ear.

Just imagine the teary reunion between them after the Queen told the doctor (who has been refusing to left his room for years now unless the Queen need to be checked for her health).

Riddle then get more educations in order to prepare him to be the next ruler of the Queendom. During that time he meet Trey and Che'nya, both who has reunited with their own families. Riddle at first was afraid to meet them again, let alone their families. For he still believe that he was at fault for them losing many years to live a normal live. But neither of them, nor their families, ever hate Riddle. Because they know, especially after the whole thing during Floyd's supposed execution, that he was also another victim of the wicked witch.

Also, I imagine after Riddle became a King (or Queen, based on the Queendom's law), he declared that Floyd is free of all charges again him, at least in the Queendom, because of his actions back then.

Well, no one can disagree with him :3

Also, during that time, he meet Cater, Ace, and Deuce. All of them, along with Trey and Che'nya, became his personal guards and jester/advisor. With them he learnt how to become a great ruler. Also, with Cater's help, he tried to follow any news about Floyd and his friends. Hoping and still believe that they would reunited again one day.

And they did. Maybe after the whole journey of Idia. Or maybe, should you make Riddle the sun drop, after a whole fiasco that then lead Riddle and co to them, reunited Riddle and Floyd once more but in adventure much more insane than before.

Maybe after this all Riddle try to create peace between human and mermaids. He tried to show everyone that mermaids are just like them, just different in appearance. He also was the first ruler, and make his Queendom to be the first country that accept mermaids into their land.

The reason is because Riddle want to be with Floyd forever and more and get their happy ending. Not to mention, for him, he hasn't paid his payment yet for all of Floyd's help.

:0 that's a noice continuation...

For my Idia rapunzel au, there is a lot of lore, but much more faithful to the tangled series lore... with the exception that Idia cannot heal, but just boost one's magic. Also summon magic rocks. His hair was long because he couldn't cut it with anything, just like the rocks he summons. His bringing to the tower was done under the pretext that he killed his brother(which later proved to be fake), so he never intended to leave in fear that he would accidentally kill someone again.

Again, imma go under a cut :'3

Riddle training and becoming king while Floyd is gone sounds like something that would absolutely be brought in once they do meet again. :'3

And the rest of the hearts family <3

Cater could've been the son of a merchant, just to get him to have some connections and knowledge outside the queendom itself. Hence he is the most trusted by Riddle when it comes to outside information and handling matters that involve negotiating with the other kingdoms. If Floyd were to ever step foot back in here, Cater will know immediately.

Riddle's goal is peace throughout diplomacy. The queendom of roses was flourishing on it's own, so he didn't want to put a worry over possibilities of war, as such, striking peace with the neighbor kingdoms was most likely his go to, which also includes the mers as the queendom had to have some opening to the sea. It would probably mark it off as the first kingdom to start as a completely peaceful state. :v

But if we do extend it with the idipunzel au... then it gets messy :'3

Firstly, Idia himself would be expected to first make peace with the mers since later on, Malleus asks for marriage and as such, Azul is a mer, who ends up marrying into the royalty of the said kingdom. But Ortho's officially the crowned prince and the one who inherents the throne, as such, Idia's crowning comes off as important only for the royal family. The whole load of plans is rocked tho, when Malleus is found by the fae kingdom and he is forced to go there and settle the previous 'engagement' he was set up to, engagement that Malleus himself had to call off before running away in shame. (This is how he meet and became indebted to Azul for helping him run away)

With this, Idia has to go with Malleus and Azul to the fae kingdom, of course via Azul's crew. That's also how they go to the queendom, as Azul initially left his ship there, for his crew to make some trading. His ship later was taken by the queendom authorities(before Riddle came to the capital altogether), hence they needed to go there and negotiate for that ship.

Cue meeting in between Riddle and Floyd, even if Azul was there to negotiate for the ship. Of course, Riddle gave them back the ship with no hassle. He was just happy that Floyd came back.

But he again had to leave. Not wanting to be separated again, Floyd offers for Riddle to join their lil adventure, under the pretext that if Malleus takes over his status as heir to the fae throne, they could strike an alliance, especially since the fae empire was a force to be reckoned with.

Cue hearts gang joining in on the adventure. A lot of shenanigans on the sea and so much chaos. :3

I guess that's all I have... the brain juices are done for now :'3

[anonymeqaupdates]

Chapter 42 review

It's sweet that Kalim is relief about being in top 6 ranks, he really does improve much and hope it doesn't affect him after winter break. His father is an asshole.

I can tell there many reasons why Azul didn't target the second years: to avoid the suspicious from not only the tweels but the rest of the second year cast (except Ruggie, Jamil, and Azul, all of them are in the impending doom) and for Kalim to be in top 10 ranks not only for the contracts but secretly cared about him.

Man the tweels are getting more unhinged that I like the angst especially Floyd hitting the wall with blood. Poor Ace, it's bad enough he got hurt by Floyd but by Jade. I know he screw up but he doesn't deserve that kind of treatment especially being force to not reveal it to the point he hurt his face. Jade being scarier than his brother especially when he is the crazy twin(sometimes your afraid of the silent ones who gets angry than the one who often does).

Thank 7⃣ that Lilia, Jack, and Sebek stop the Tweels. This is too much for Ace to handle this

I can tell that Riddle will yell at Floyd and Jade for doing this to Ace at the next chapter which caused trouble in their relationship during chapter 3.

Oh Idia named the cat Premo, it means first when searching the meaning of the name. I guess he is the first cat to be named. Interesting that Ortho try to refuse him to have a cat and only accept to get out more. I kinda wish that Ortho sees the USB drive of his fanfic.

Idia: No, my fanfic!

Jamil and Ruggie still being backstabbing friends they are but at least Jamil still cares about Ruggie's wellbeing. Can't wait for him to interact to the other idiot trio.

Seeing Azul doing his dramatic pose but this time, he is more alone and unhinged. Like after he thinks that Tweels left him, he figures he rather do this alone than with them.

Yuu scolding the idiot trio is something they need to do learn. Like Yuu doesn't care about being the best, he just wanted to pass. But because of their insults that he felt what is something wrong with him. Interesting that Epel help Yuu out, someone who is the same wavelength as the idiot trio but is more behave. Yuu's anger is scary since he doesn't often be angry like that, just like with Jade.

So I wonder how Epel and Ortho are gonna interact Yuu and the group to join in for chapter 4?

Trein is a great guardian like he could of just not be in his life often but he does and even care about him in need. He really is the best staff out of the rest. (I ranked Crowley last XD). Glad Trein is okay from his injury, I'm sure Yuu visit him during his care in need.

You know how crows or ravens died after flying? Well the bird itself is here to deliver the worst news.

I can't wait who will get poison, can you at least give us another hint? Like is he part of the students, impending doom, first years, or staff?

-🧋

I'm glad you liked this chapter! You guessed right about Azul's motive to avoid the second years in his scheme! If it hadn't been for the fact that he was trying to avoid suspicions he would have just lowered the efficacy of his guides but I don't think his pride would have handled it well. Besides it was safer for Kalim that way, he do care about him and does think the Asim patriarch is an asshole.

The angst was pretty good, I got chills writing it! As for Ace his sufferings serve a higher purpose that will pan out in his books that I had totally planned from the beginning (they say, like a liar)!

Premo is actually named after Idia's favorite band : Prescipices Moraï or as the fans calls them : Premo. It's mentioned in his dorm vignette, btw I love how unhinged his expression is in the groovy of that card.

Ortho actually just went with their parents plan to extort some sunlight time out of him. He knew that Idia would end up with the cat either way but hey, it was still worth a shot and it paid off so....

Even Jamil still has someone in his corner while Azul stands alone against the world and at his point just want to (figuratively) watch it burn.

They weren't expecting the chewing out, but not only did they stressed him out and accidentally brought him down lower than dirt but they scared him half to death with that kidnapping stint. He's angrier at Adeuce than Grim because they were suppose to know better than a cat demon who never interacted with human society before. Hence the new nicknames : Perceval (Deuce) and Karadoc (Ace), it's a little Easter egg to Kaamelott, a show that I referenced before and in which the knights Perceval and Karadoc are infamous for their stupid antics amongst which using vegetables as martial arts weapons, taking the guards on patrol drinking at the tavern and so many others. So this is far from being a compliment but I guess the context gave that away.

(Translation (not word for word) : Riddle : Wait. Just a moment, I wanted to tell you something. Uh... I often scream at you two, I'll admit, I'm a bit harsh and all, but, for someone like me who is prone to depression, what you're doing is especially important.

Deuce : Really?

Riddle : Because, I don't how to tell you this... It's systematically stupid, but it's always unexpected! And that, it's really important for my sanity.)

So yeah, I think I just made my point. God I could make an entire series of Twst incorrect quotes with things pulled from Kaamelott.

Epel and Ortho will come into the fold slowly but surely don't worry! But they're going to have some, impressions following Book 3.

We don't deserve Trein. He's good at his job, had put up with Crowley the longest, he's a role model, tried to protect his students and hasn't hunted us down for sports yet. And he brings his cat to class. A true national treasure.

Speaking of Crowley, he's really a bird of bad omen. I can't wait until we get his vignette story!!!

Okay I'll give you one last clue. But I'm not going to make it easy, if you want a clue as to who Azul is going to poison then let me encourage you to watch Death in Paradise season 7 episode 4 : The healer. I think it may be of interest to you. But, if it's not enough or that you can't find the show...

Qu'est-ce que c'est que quelqu'un qui souffre et qui fait couler son sang par terre pour que tout le monde soit coupable ? Tous les suicidés sont le Christ. Toutes les baignoires sont le Graal...

Please translate only as a last resort. It's from the last episode of Kaamelott (I really like that show if you couldn't tell). It's also a bit triggering so handle with caution.

[smokesandsonatas]

hi you're back!!! can i request a scenario of how the twst dorm headmasters would act to the clumsy fem mc? pls include grim 🥺 thank youu

- First TWST ask, yay. -

It is a known fact that Night Raven College is an exclusive all - boys magic school. So when rumors spread that a woman somehow fell through the dark mirror and ended up with her own dorm, naysayings started to circulate. Especially since the girl came with a talking cat monster, and no magical powers.

Heartslabyul - Riddle

Riddle is in the middle of teaching his subordinates discipline when news reached him. At first, he did not care. Of course, you're no match for him. And he will never stoop so low as to break a rule for your well-being.

But when his two young freshmen subordinates named Deuce and Ace started dragging you around with them, along with... What is that? A talking furball? Nevermind.

He can't help but notice you. Like right now, he saw you chasing that little gremlin, along with his two classmen -

Riddle's eyes widen, oh goodness, you - you just tripped in your foot in front of everyone!

Hooo HeheHahaha! Oh. Your clumsier than he can imagine!

How delightful!

Trey awkwardly cleared his throat, looking at Riddle who's gleefully laughing to himself for almost a minute now. The vice dorm leader pinched the bridge of his nose. He can feel a headache coming.

Savanaclaw - Leona

You smell different. You don't have the fierce scent of women from Savanaclaw, nor do you reek of any magical talent.

He doesn't really care about you at first, he just want to mind his own business.

But when you walk in the Botanical garden, alone, and stepped on his tail, he could not help the low growl that left him.

Leona saw you quickly bow, letting out a "sorry..."

If he could he would reprimand you, but seeing that you're helpless he just let out a -

"Tsk."

- and went on his way. Though he can't help the smug smirk as he saw you plopped down on your trembling legs.

Octavinelle - Azul

Azul was walking down the stairs when he saw you tripped on your foot, your 'cat' Grim, is nowhere by your side.

He was quick to offer you a hand, "You should be careful next time."

Azul quickly tried to hide his surprise, oh? You're the new magic less human!

"Thank you," you gave him a small smile. And quickly scurry away.

The merman can't help the giddiness inside his chest. He would have to count his favor of helping you in your future deals.

Scarabia - Kalim

"Wah! Are you alright?" Kalim was quickly on your side, offering you a hand as you tripped on your way to the cafeteria.

Too embarrassed to speak, you just nodded your head.

Kalim blinked you look familiar... Ah! You're -

"The girl with no magic!"

You just smiled awkwardly, trying to match his happiness.

"Well it's nice to meet you! See you later!" And Kalim was on his way, whistling a happy tune.

Ah, he helped someone in need, he's really a great Prince.

Pomefiore - Vil

Being clumsy, is being ugly.

That's what Vil thinks, because how can you flaunt your beauty - your face - if you're always tripping head first, down to the floor?

When he saw you tripped, clumsily falling on the floor, Vil let out a scoff.

Good thing you're not destined to Pomefiore.

Or it would be a grueling experience for you. Because Vil will instill gracefullness and elegance into your soul.

Ignihyde - Idia

It was in the great hall when Idia saw you tripped, then drop the camera you're holding. Grim is not with you, that much Idia know because he's upset the cat is nowhere to be found. He's always been curious of Grim.

Idia stood frozen to the side, should he help you? Ah! But that would mean approaching you! Ah no, no he can't do that. Uhhh - what should he do?

Idia starts biting his lip out of sheer nervousness, not noticing that you've already stand up, dusted your pants then continue on your way as if nothing happened.

Well... Idia awkwardly scurry back to his dorm room.

At least you're ok, even if he did not help you.

Diasomnia - Malleus

Malleus is sitting on the rooftop when he saw you. Running in the halls as if you're chasing something...

With keen eyesight he saw you chase Grim down, eventually screaming for the monstrous cat to return your camera. Apparently, he stole it.

And then it happened, you tripped, your face landing first in the grass patch of the school halls near the garden.

Malleus had the mind to help you, yet he does not know what will you do if you sense his presence.

And so he opted with some magic. Letting the wind blew gently to soothe the sore on your face.

Malleus watch with amusement - yet straight face - as you continue your chase for grim.

Hmm? You're much livelier than he could've thought.

Hi, can you please do dorm leaders with a blind s/o.

Sure can~. Hope this is to your liking 😄. Enjoy~~

Dorm Leaders x Blind S/o

Riddle Roseheart

He will lower your voice for you. He knows that your hearing will be very sharp.

He also will put another order to his students that if they see you walking around alone without your group then they need to help you.

He is also very understanding towards you.

So when you accidentally hit something, he will never get angry and start fussing over your injury.

He also loves to help you study and his voice when teaching you is very soothing. Try not to fall asleep, okay?

Leona Kingscholar

You scream trouble and you indeed bring trouble for him.

It is not his intention to follow you everywhere you go. There is so much expensive stuff inside Savanaclaw that he worried you will break one and not be able to pay for it.

Will payed Ruggie to keep an eyes on you for 24/7. Poor Ruggie.

People will never pick fun of you because this big soft lion will be nearby and glare at the students until they ran away.

Tsk. This is why you can't go further away from him. You are such a troublesome herbivore.

Azul Ashegrotto

At least he knows that you see him for him and not physical. This man here is the real definition of paranoid.

Will not feel safe unless you take him or one of the twins as your bodyguard. People will try to find his weakness and he didn't want you to get hurt.

Pamper you and always check you out in the class. That friends of yours can not be trusted with your safety.

Try to spare his time to help you study. Or make sure you understand what is been reached. He will not let it be your weakness to not study.

Oh. You also need to move in with him. It's much safer than that dorm you called Ramshackle.

Kalim Al-Asim

He rich. He can provide for your eyes operation if you want.

What? You need to find a donor? How about his own eye-.

Jamil: Kalim. No.

Okay, so that is out of option. You sound so upset when he suggested that. But that will not stop him to do his best and make you comfortable around him.

Always make sure his dorm is safe for you to wander around. He also makes sure to compliment you every time he sees you. So you will not feel sad about your inability to see something.

He will talk with some expert to cure your eyes behind your back.

Vil Schoenheit

He is much softer with you. Now you are his top priority other than his beauty.

Will build your self-confidence. He will not hesitate to make sure you appear stylish from head to toe.

Basically, you are his new doll now.

Vil is also very great in the potion lesson. He will try to find something that allows you to see for a second.

Always been seen to escort you everywhere. Want to go to class? He will be there just wait patiently. Do you want to go to Ramshackle now? Why not stay for tonight?

His fans know about you both and always comment about how you both are the perfect couple and how understanding boyfriend Vil is.

Idia Shroud

Okay. No more going out. You are much safer inside his room.

You want to eat something? He sent Ortho.

You want to go back to pack your clothes for another night? No need. He can order new clothes online.

Crewel need to bonk Idia to let you go.

Extra careful with you if both of you are out. He will ignore his fear and go out with you just to ensure your safety.

He may or may not use his technology to keep you on track. He also put a system inside the Ramshackle just so you can do things easier around the dorm.

He wants to provide NRC with the same system but Crowley didn't allow it.

Malleus Draconia.

This baby will become extra soft with you. Overprotective too.

You will never leave his watchful eyes anymore. Either send Sebek or Silver to watch over you from the shadow.

Asking for Lilia's help to watch over you too. Using his bat.

This boy will try his hardest to find a cure for you even if it is for a moment, he wants you to see color and the beauty of the world.

Hello! IDK if this has been asked, but... How would the dormitory leaders react when they and s/o got the main roles for the annual theater play? And it's romance with the kissing at the end of the play~ ❤

I can totally see Vil being so into this! Thank you for your request~~! ❤

🥀 for sure Cater will be in the first row filming the whole play and zooming on kissing scene and then sending it to literally everyone (rip Cater Diamond, you will be remembered)

🥀 Riddle simply turns into red, flustered ball on emotions. Which you think it’s kind of cute. It will take a lot of time to convince him to actually agree and prepare for the role, 

🥀 at first he’s completely against whole idea. Sure, he is flattered and proud of himself (and you) for getting a role in the annual theater play, but deep down Riddle is insecure. He’s not sure whether he can portray the character right,

🥀 oh and the mere thought of kissing you in front of whole school makes his already rosy cheeks even redder than usual,

🥀 so you two end up practising mostly the kiss, cause each time your lips linger a bit closer to his, Riddle’s cheeks flush rosy color and his whole form melts,

🥀 which you think it’s cute, but you both know that absolutely cannot happen on the stage

🥀 and yes, Cater coos how cute you both are and offers some acting tips,

🦁 the annual theater play, huh? Certainly not interested, would muttered Leona while turning on his back to continue his nap peacefully,

,,Y’know, it would be a real shame if Malleus got the role of the prince” “yhm, I don’t care” “there’s a kissing scene, y’know?” “WHAT, THIS IS MY ROLE”

🦁 absolutely doesn’t mind kissing scene, instead Leona insists on practicing it few times. To make sure it’s perfect, as he would playfully say, 

,,We can’t practice this one scene all over again. Did you even learn the script?” “We have a script?”

🦁 you and Ruggie has to literally drag his lazy ass to rehearsals, since Leona wouldn’t even bother attending them,

🦁 surprisingly, he’s amazing on the stage (when he actually puts some effort in his acting). Needless to say, he did steal the show,

🦁 how Leona managed to learn his parts and actually steal the whole show is still a mystery to you and Ruggie

🦁  little did you know, that he actually practiced in secret, without telling anyone as if he wanted to keep up his “cool aura”

🐙 wishes you all best, but he politely refuses to take part in the play. Even your pleading, puppy eyes aren’t sufficient to convince him. However, dating Azul taught you one thing – everything is possible if you know person’s deepest secrets

🐙 so you blackmailed him with slight help from Jade (Floyd won’t ever shut up about this),

🐙Azul has never ever in his octopus life felt that stunned. The way his eyes widen when you presented the conditions, was almost hilarious to you,

🐙 you enjoyed this way too much,

🐙probably one of the few who actually learned the whole script and practiced it every evening before going to bed. Once Azul sees that there’s no turning back, he will do everything to thoroughly prepare himself and steal the show,

🐙 insists on you two practicing after lessons and you happily oblige,

🐙 Azul denied the role at first, because he was simply insecure and anxious. The mere thought of kissing you in front of whole school where the eyes of every student will be all over you two, is simply paralyzing to him. Besides, he has a certain image of callous and meticulous businessman to maintain,

🐙 he will definitely get nervous few minutes before the start of the play. Azul’s heart will be racing, while he would be sweating and heavily breathing, but the moment your hands gently cup his face and your sweet words leave your lips, his body slowly begins to relax, 

,,Don’t be so anxious, we had practiced it. It’s gonna be alright” “Y/N, I think we should practice this kissing scene one more time”

🦂 when you two got main roles in the annual school musical, you both were on cloud nine. Literally. Jamil had to listen to you both fangirling over it for almost a whole night, 

🦂 Kalim is extremely, extremely, extremely excited and he’s beaming with happiness. He defintely thinks you’re both are made for the roles and he will put his heart into acting, singing and dancing, 

🦂 well, the preparations may be a tad bit sloppy, yet you both don’t complain. The evenings spent on singing nice tunes, learning lyrics together, practicing choreographies and finally acting out few scenes is very enjoyable to Kalim (and of course you), 

🦂 Kalim is rather giddy about kissing scene. Well, he certainly doesn’t mind it! No, no, he’s actually more than happy to kiss you in front of whole school. This man knows no shame, 

🦂 rehearsals are chaotic. Well, the rehearsals your duo does, at least. During practices with the rest of students and teacher, suddenly you two are dead serious and focused on getting the notes and script right, 

🦂 the duality sometimes scares Jamil, 

💜 did someone say theatre play? Main roles? And on top of it kissing scene? And the male lead is not some sexy vilian? Vil is ceratinly in,

💜 he knows exactly what he’s doing and what you’re supposed to do. After all, his acting skills are simply splendid. Vil is more than eager to help you out, 

💜 you two practice the script a LOT, acting out every single scene multiple times, just so you can ace it. He is rather strict as a partner/acting teacher, but you are aware that Vil just wants to make sure everything will be perfect and you will present yourself as best as you can,

💜 you find Vil’s advices extremely helpful and after a while you begin feel confident in your newly acquired skills, 

💜he is not nervous before kissing scene, bah, he brushes it off as if it was something normal or regular in his life. Meanwhile, you are freaking out and screaming internally, 

💜 which makes Vil amused and he may tease you a LOT, insisting to practice the kissing scene. His lips will playfully brush against yours for a brief second, before he pulls away with a smirk, while you can only pout and die from feels, 

🖤 panic mode 10000000000. Idia is absolutely terrified when you tell him the “good news”,

🖤 give him literally 5 minutes and he will have his suitcase packed, booked flight to “Nope-land” and would be on his merry way. Idia is screaming internally as that’s something definitely out of his comfort zone,

🖤 he absolutely hates speaking before a big public, yet alone acting and the mere thought of having a kissing scene with you is more than enough to give him a heart attack. He certainly doesn’t want to disappoint you, since you’re so excited to take part in school play with him, yet it’s a matter of time before Idia politely refuses,

🖤 you don’t push him though – you do respect his boundaries,

🖤 however, when Idia proposes to either clone or create a hologram of himself for the play, you are just speechless and it’s your turn to politely refuse,

🖤 as much as Idia hates the mere thought of you kissing someone else, he won’t change his mind (he may suggest Vil to play the other main character tho)

🐲 Malleus is stunned and speechless the moment you tell him that you both got the main roles,

🐲 he’s even more stunned and speechless when you shyly mutter that it will involve the kissing scene,

🐲 Malleus has never really taken part in theatre play, yet alone displayed his affection (or more like affection of his character) for you in front of such crowd. Obviously, he hesitates, but your excited tone of voice and eyes filled with pure happiness were enough to convince him,

🐲 Malleus takes his role rather seriously and he prepares himself thoroughly – he knows the whole script by heart and could describe every detail of random scene in the middle of the night,

🐲 you are definitely more nervous than Malleus before kissing scene. He seems as stoic and collected as always, while you may be screaming internally,

,,I think we should practice this scene more” “I have kissed you more than 10 times already, darling. I may start thinking that this is just a mere excuse for you to kiss me, huh?” “That’s…that’s…THAT’S certainly not true Malleus!”

🐲 guaranteed that Lilia will be in the first row with a camera, while Sebek will be taking ton of pictures (and yeah, Silver is asleep per usual). “You’re doing great, sweetie” along with “Waka-sama hype man”  will be a perfect addition to the theatre play,

Hi, can I ask for relationship of your oc with 🔥&🐲

refering to this post!

I’ve been waiting for someone to ask for Idia  😳

🔥 What relationship does your oc have with Idia?

They’re in board game club together 

Idia of course at first is pretty nervous about talking with her, he keeps stuttering and won’t look her in the eye

Azul being in board game club with them is a great help since he usually starts and leads conversations (Idia and Vic are quiet and introverted, they have an easier time talking together when Azul is with them)

Vic may not be extroverted, but she is not as socially anxious as Idia. When they’re alone together she takes the lead in most situations

They share a lot of interests in common!! Whenever Idia mutters a pop reference or talks about games Vic goes ‘’hey that sounds cool!’’ or ‘’wow I like that stuff too!’’  which leads to them excitely gushing about geek stuff and Idia gradually opening up to her. 

*shows phone* ‘’This meme reminded me of you!’’

They become feral when things get heated up in board game club. They will be competitive, snarky, throwing mocking comments at each other, laughing smugly when the other loses; This is the moment they are more casual and true with themselves, without even realizing. 

Idia and Vic will often team up against Azul and gently bully him

Some days Idia will bring his own portable game consoles so they can play together.

Unfortunately because of Idia’s shut in nature, they barely meet in person outside of game club. But they talk a lot through messages! They will stay up until 3am DMing each other about geek stuff or gushing about the new game Idia’s obsessed with. 

Idia is very insecure about her opinion on him; ‘’It’s been 10 minutes and she hasn’t answered my text. She hates me.’’

Vic must reassure him often that she highly appreciates talking with him and their friendship is very precious; even if they don’t go in personal or sentimental details about their lives.

Idia might gradually grow feelings for her, but he will keep them buried deep inside his heart; It’s hopeless anyway.

🐲 What relationship does your oc have with Malleus?

It doesn’t go much different from canon malleyuu tbh

They met. And it was like ‘’bruh, he’s tall... Looks edgy. I like his horns. He seems lonely. Maybe we can become friends.’’ ‘’What’s with this... sassy lost child?’’ 

Vic was wary of him at first, but didn’t take long to realize he means no harm and is actually kinda nice. 

They don’t meet up very often, but appreciate each other’s presence nevertheless. 

Vic sometimes will talk about her week to Malleus, and show him memes on her phone... He doesn’t understand a damn thing but likes hearing her talk and learning new things from her.

Malleus might disappear for weeks and will randomly show up at Ramshackle when she least expects it. She will always greet him ‘’Tsunotarou!!’’ excited to see him.

She doesn’t fear him (well at first she did, now not anymore) and Malleus highly appreciates that! 

Malleus sees her as an innocent child; a magicless adorable little human. He feels soft inside whenever he sees her happy or excited. 

Vic likes teaching him general things about technology and social media. He may not grasp it all but hey he’s having fun!

‘‘Lilia, what does ‘homie’ mean?’‘

Much like Lilia, she reminds Malleus of the time Silver and Sebek were kids, which gets him slightly nostalgic. 

Overall a very pure and wholesome friendship uwu
