Nothing to Gain - Azul

Author Notes: I'm honestly not sure how I feel about this fic. Part of me really likes and another part of me.... Either way, I decided I might as well post it since I really didn't know what I wanted to post for this week. This fic was written while I listened to "Whataya Want From Me" by Adam Lambert which definitely affected the overall tone of this fic. As per usual, reader is gender neutral. I hope you enjoy!

Type: Gender-netural reader/ fluff/ some angst/ pining/ romance/ mentions of Octavinelle and Scarabia overblot so spoilers for those chapters

There was something frightening about relying on others. It was something that Azul had noticed before and was the reason he preferred to surround himself with only the most reliable individuals. 

He could rely on them, and they could rely on him.

But his overblot had shaken him to his core. He’d questioned even his most basic beliefs about himself, and, to be honest, he still wasn’t entirely sure what to think of the events of that day.

However, neither Jade nor Floyd had changed their opinions of him or abandoned him after that day, as he’d feared they would. Instead, they remained by his side, as they always did. But there was a benefit to being there. Even after his overblot, Azul was still housewarden and had a say in how the Octavinelle dorm was run.

There might be some cost, but the benefit was great enough that the twins stayed, and Azul was comfortable with that. He understood it. 

What he didn’t understand was you. 

You stood nothing to gain by being kind to him and supporting him. If you were a normal person, you would either attempt to blackmail him or avoid him. Only allowing enough interaction to show how much you detested him for what he’d put you through.

But you apparently weren’t a normal person. Because you stayed by him and helped him through the aftermath of the overblot. 

Soothing the fleeing students whom he’d robbed of their spells and talents. Assuring them that all was well and such a thing wouldn’t occur again. Reminding them what a good, competent housewarden he was.

It hadn’t been easy, and it had taken you, Jade, Floyd, and Azul all working together to cover up everything that had happened and finally put his overblot to rest. And the entire time you were there, it made him nervous.

But at least after it was done, you would leave. That only made sense. There was no reason for you to stay past that point.

Azul had surmised that you must just be one of those people who liked to see their work done. Sort of like Jack, who’d been with you since the very start, even though he quite obviously had a distaste for both Azul and the tweels.

And, as expected, Jack left as soon as everything was settled. He had no further business with Octavinelle, and all was well on that front. But you didn’t leave.

Rather, you kept appearing in the very fringes of Azul’s vision. Smiling and offering a wave that was always returned by at least one of the tweels, as Azul found himself faltering.

Why were you still here? There was nothing to gain.

By the time winter break had come, he’d come up with a new plan and explanation for your strange behavior. You were always around because you wanted remuneration for your services. That made sense.

Having the tweels offer you a place to stay over winter break with an ever-benevolent warning about the fee was easy enough. An offer for your payment that wasn’t grounded in worry for the fact you were staying in the most run-down building on campus, no matter what Floyd said.

But you hadn’t accepted, and Azul was lost once more. You’d turned the offer down with a fond smile, joking that you didn’t want a bill like the one his offer would mean hanging over your head.

But that was that. Azul was sure he wouldn’t hear anything from you, at least until the next school year had begun. And by then, he would surely have figured out what it was that you wanted.

But he did hear from you. You’d quite literally crashed into the Mostro Lounge, landing in a heap on the ground. Covered in sand and trembling in fear as you’d looked up at the horde of angry Scarabia students that had come to collect you.

And Azul repaid you right then and there. He’d shielded you from those who’d sought you out and handled that matter promptly. 

It wasn’t as if there had been no reward for his actions after all. He’d assured himself that this was all just to get information on how, exactly, you’d managed to upset the students of Scarabia.

And that had led to another debacle, not entirely unlike what had happened to him. Jamil’s overblot.

Despite what Jade and Floyd may have teasingly suggested, Azul knew he’d only assisted you to give himself an in to winning over Jamil. And as for you spending the night safely in Octavinelle under his and the tweels protection for free one night…. That was just another part of his plan. Nothing odd at all.

By the end of the winter break, he’d repaid you, now had a perfectly good excuse to seek Jamil out for conversation, and everything was as it should be.

Or rather, it should have been.

Some part of Azul had seemed to grow cold when he’d seen you run into Ace and Deuce’s arms just after the Scarabia overblot, though. Perfectly happy to leave him behind in favor of your two friends.

And now Azul was having to question himself. Why did that upset him? He’d wanted you gone and handled because there had been no reason for you to be around him. Your lingering had made no sense, and his moroseness was equally ridiculous.

…. Right? Azul wasn’t expecting much as the next term started. He was fully prepared to go back to the way things were. With you hardly ever noticing his presence, while he would do his very best to ignore yours.

But he didn’t have to ignore you. Because as soon as he saw you in the hallway, you were turning to look his way. A smile on your face and a hand raised in cheerful greeting.

And suddenly Azul was frightened. What did you want? Why did you seem so happy to see him when you had your friends right by your side?

There was no benefit to staying near him, and you had seen him at his weakest, lowest, and most vile. So shouldn’t you want to have nothing to do with him?

He’d overblotted and attacked not only you but your friends. There was no reason to look so happy in this instance.

In his confusion, Azul found himself walking towards you quickly. Stopping as you looked at him with a slightly startled expression.

“Angelfish, if we might talk,” He started before glancing at both of the young men who flanked you with confused expressions that matched yours, save the wariness in their eyes. 

“Alone,” He finished a little more firmly than he’d intended, but if you noticed, you didn’t react.

Instead, you just nodded, a slightly uncertain smile appearing on your face as you responded, “Okay.” 

You waved off your two obviously concerned friends and followed Azul without a single concern. Only confusion.

Like you really did trust him. Like you really weren’t concerned in the slightest by his reputation or the things you knew that he did.

As if his past actions didn’t bother you and you weren’t the slightest bit upset by how he’d attempted to shoo you away with paltry offerings.

And it frightened Azul. He didn’t know what you wanted, and he didn’t know what he wanted. 

It was only once he was sure it was only the two of you that he turned to face you once more. Dropping any facade he had of confidence the very moment his eyes met yours.

“What do you want from me?” His voice quivered slightly, but he stood firm as you looked at him with utter confusion.

But then, as if you saw something in the depths of his pale blue eyes, your expression shifted to one of concern for him, and you stepped closer. Your voice dropping to a whisper that was perfectly filled with loving worry and that only made Azul feel more lost than he had before, “Azul? What do you mean?”

Azul had lived the entire first part of his life in the very deepest part of the ocean, but he knew that in this moment he was well beyond his depth.

Because suddenly all Azul could really think was that he didn’t want to let you down. Not when, as your simplistic question had just evidenced, you’d never been with him for any ulterior motive.

No, you stayed for a reason that Azul himself was only just now beginning to understand. You stayed because you cared for Azul, and that was enough.

And, looking back, Azul knew all those things he’d done in the past…. Offering you a room in Octavinelle for a fee only to waive that fee the very moment you’d appeared in front of him, frightened and covered in sand…. All of that had been him not wanting you to come to harm. 

Because even after seeing him at his most shameful, you hadn’t judged him as weak, untalented, or anything less. Instead, you looked at him like he had just as much worth as anyone else here.

And you genuinely cared for him. In your own way, you’d been supporting him ever since then, as he leaned on you without even realizing it.

Knowing all of that now, it felt wrong to ask you what you wanted. Because was it really you that wanted something, or was it him?

You continued to look at him, worriedly searching his eyes for an answer as one of your hands reached up to cup his cheek, “Azul?” Your voice was so soft, and it nearly broke him as he realized exactly how wonderful you were and how it didn’t make any sense for you to be here with him when he was so perfectly broken.

But he inhaled, a smile working its way onto his face as he let his hand cover your own, “I’m sorry, Angelfish. I… Just don’t give up on me yet.”

Your eyes widened as his hand wrapped around yours and pulled it from his face before squeezing it lightly, “I’m having to work all of this out and…”

He trailed off, faltering as he searched for words, but you only smiled. Shaking your head slightly before you responded, “No, I understand. You need time, and what happened to you… It messed you up.”

Azul nodded, half-touched that you could still be so understanding despite the confusing circumstances he’d put you in, and half-disappointed in himself.

Because he could only hope that you would keep appearing in peripheral vision and helping him get through the difficult days.

And he would do his best. He was slowly coming to understand what it was to care for someone without a cost-benefit relationship. And even if he didn’t know exactly what he wanted from you, he would with time, and he would repay you tenfold for everything you’d given him.

Was giving these analysis a read [ x , x , x , x ]

[cheekinpermission]

I wanna talk about the scene in the museum with Azul...

(SPOILERS FOR BOOK 3 AHEAD. ALSO LOTS OF RAMBLING! :D)

During Ch. 38 of Book 3, Azul and Yuu have a short conversation post-overblot in the underwater museum place. I always felt that this bit of dialogue was weirdly charged? The whole scene felt very intimate to me (and the soft music in the background doesn't help lmao), but I never knew WHY since nothing said was inherently romantic.

So, I went back and re-read through every post-overblot and realized that Azul is the only who who has a one-on-one conversation with Yuu after their overblot??

It's rare enough to have one-on-one conversations between Yuu and another character, but then Azul goes a step further. He's the only one to open up to Yuu about his problems:

Some of the other overblot boys talk about their problems, but not to Yuu specifically. It's more of a declaration than confiding in someone, you know? (E.g. Riddle talking about how he prefers milk tea even though the rules stipulate lemon tea)

We, the players, are shown flashbacks of the overblot boys to explain how they reached this point but I can't recall if Yuu is privy to this information as well. (It's theoretically possible since Yuu already has visions / dreams of the Great Seven, but no one ever mentions it so who knows. I'm personally on the side of Yuu NOT knowing because it feels a bit invasive that they'd have this knowledge of people who weren't ready to share it.)

Regardless of whether Yuu can or cannot see those flashbacks, Azul is the only one to willingly talk about his motivations to Yuu. For Azul, this is especially important as he's so protective of his image as a clever and upstanding housewarden, and yet here he openly admits to Yuu that he was a bit of a loser as a kid (his words not mine!).

I guess you could argue that he felt there was no reason to hide it anymore since Yuu already saw him as a chubby octopus baby, but he didn't have to talk about it at all if he didn't want to. But he did. On his own. With no prompting. (Really, though. Yuu can either say they want to make sure he puts the photo back or that they're worried about him, and either way he drops his lore on them lol) And then Yuu tries to help him feel better??

To my knowledge, Yuu doesn't do this with any of the other overblot boys, either. I could have missed it during my research, but if they did it wasn't nearly to the same extent as with Azul.

I still don't know why Azul felt like opening up to Yuu. He didn't have to, but maybe he wanted to? Maybe he wanted to try his hand at being genuine for once and felt Yuu was the least intimidating person to do it with (the magicless human that they are). Who knows? I wish there were more scenes like this. It makes Yuu feel more included in the story. I also think it shows a lot of growth on Azul's end to open up about his problems to Yuu of his own volition.

I'm not sure what I wanted to say with this post, only that I wanted to get my thoughts out there about this scene because it always stood out to me. I felt there was always an undercurrent of something and I think it's because this was the only post-overblot private conversation we got with Yuu and an overblot boy, plus the added encouragement from Yuu at the end.

I'm curious to know if anyone felt the same way about this scene or if I'm just imagining things. I'm also interested in hearing any theories why Azul suddenly felt the urge to open up to Yuu, if you've got them!

Thanks for enduring my rambling!

Bonus!

Azul's so funny for trying to play it off all cool like he isn't doing flips and princess twirls in his head rn. Yuu laid it on THICK. We all know he's freaking out internally.

[mitzysmitzy]

made a (really messy) sketch on what i think neige would look like if he overblotted!!!!

For his clothes, I was inspired by those like, cutesy idol magical girls, but a bit more princey (more dark and snow white themed, too lol). I was considering on putting him in more masculine idol clothes, but decided against it, since I thought that'd be boring.

The branches on his arms, head and waist/skirt are based on the scene from the movie where Snow White's running in the forest. Hence the muddy shoes and skirt, and why the clothes are a little ripped. Also the branches on his hair are supposed to look like deer antlers, but I'm bad at drawing them soooo yeah

I have to wonder, but I don’t think the game is over after we defeat Malleus. Many suspect us as Yuu will be the next overblot which I do not doubt. But what if it’s either the dark mirror or Crowley himself?

For example, Crowley never tried to stop the overblots meaning he must have some bad motive behind it. Not to mention the dark mirror?

Take a look at this

The dark mirror has Maleficent’s insignia in between his eyes as you can see the horns.

What if the dark mirror is Malleona’s soul trapped inside the mirror like others are suspecting? Since Malleona is the descendant of evil aka Maleficent. It’s possibly that Crowley does remember Malleona but is playing the dumb bird that he is. What if Crowley plans to resurrect Malleona and that he is the next to overblot when we stop him! Crowley might also be using those who overblot as a human sacrifice. Human sacrifice are known to resurrect the dead in many horror films. So it’s possibly Crowley intentionally made the 7 to overblot to resurrect Malleona. In the first overblot, he didnt really look like wanted to save Riddle the first time.

If he is trying to sacrifice people, then that means he would even kill his own son if he is related to Malleus. Remember when Idia mentioned in chapter6 that he wondered if someone is intentionally making these overblot happening?

Malleona may have known of his plan. Therefore created Grim as Grim wanted to get inside the college but never knew why! Remember, Grim is an unknown monster species. Most likely he was created by magic! Plus if she is the dark mirror? She must’ve brought Yuu to stop Crowley’s plan all together with Grim. To her, Yuu is the key to stop the overblots and to get Grim to destroy Crowley’s plan.

Since Yuu was the one who took Grim in. This further makes Malleona’s plan to stop Crowley. Malleona most likely doesn’t want to be resurrected as to reason why she brought Yuu and Grim.

If what I’m thinking is correct? Crowley is a dead man!

Could you do an ABO Headcanon of Alphas!Overblot Gang x Omega!Kalim, where Kalim is a boy who was sold for a ritual to summon the seven most powerful demons to be sacrificed, but at the time of the ritual, the demons ( who I imagine in their Overblots forms) are interested in Kalim and choose him as their omega/fiance, and despite their rude and irritated manner, they slowly show that they care and love Kalim

This took so long since I had to do so much research and by the time I nearly finished it it didn't save so I lost the whole thing so I'm rewriting this all over again so if you see double somehow, now you know!

WARNING: This post will have the following;

Alpha/Beta/Omega Verse (A/B/O)

Attempted murder

Sex stuff

Is Hella Gay

If you no not like ANY of this stuff, the ships around it, or are not interested, then move along! Do not comment or engage at all if you dislike all this!

Now onto the post!

Life of Kalim Al-Asim was always pleasant and sweet. He always relied on his family and close servants and lived in a beautiful home of a beautiful and thieving kingdom. Sure he's mostly isolated and not allowed outside the home's walls but that's for his protection!

He got along great with all his servants, his family adored him as much as he adored them. Though he does have one wish his heart aches many times over, the return of his best friend... Jamil disappeared in the two's younger years right when tests to determine who's an alpha, beta, or omega started. Nothing in his room was touched or packed which made it clear he didn't run away. Not like he would, thought Kalim... He promised...

Days have been counted down for Kalim's birthday, a large wide celebration everyone celebrates in many positive ways. And this birthday was extra special for Kalim since he was informed they will be holding a parade just for him to walk around and spread goods from the family in his honor! One the day of the his birthday, he was bathed in the nicest soaps and warmest water, dressed in the finest silks and softest fabrics and ate the most delicious food he ever taste before they swept him right to the soft and veiled palanquin waiting for him.

Btw if you wanna know what he wore, I pictured the Fairy Gala outfit

Kalim was happy seeing everyone's cheerful faces as they move across the kingdom, everyone excited to see and celebrate with the well rumored beautiful child of the Asim family name, he tossed much gold coins and flowers to everyone as he waves and smiles bright and kind

As the parade drew to a close he leaned back into the soft cushions before he took notice they seem to be wandering farther away from the kingdom and more to the darker shade due to the nightfall land Before he could ask his father where they were going, the guards quickly grab onto Kalim and yank him out of the once comforting and protecting veiled hide away and into the sand

The parade was a ruse. The kindness he believed from the servants was a ruse. The lie that he was being held inside was a ruse. It was all a lie for everyone, Kalim, the kingdom...All lied to with the idea the world was unsafe for the son of such a wealthy family, but in reality he was hidden away for this very moment... With the moon at the right phase and at it's peak, as they drag the poor screaming and crying Kalim to the ruins and pin him down to the large alter. Ruby eyes widen when seeing the large seven statues of the most powerful demons in the universe... The Crimson Tyrant of Wrath The Scarred Rebel of Sloth The Enchanting Merchant of Greed The Viperous Tactician of Envy The Poisonous Oppressor of Pride The Fire Guardian of Tristitia And The Thorn Dragon of Melancholy

Kalim cried and pleaded to be let go, even more when his father explained it has to happen, that if they sacrifice once in a while the land would be blessed with great farming, water, riches, etc. and if they sacrifice such a golden soul they might be blessed with something greater.

Kalim cried and squirmed as he tried to escape from their tight grips as the kept going of the ritual. That's when he sees them... Seven figures appear from the shadows, from the Earth, from the skies, from the fires, from mere matter... Standing around him in a circle...

Kalim woke up in a soft bed he doesn't recognize in a room he doesn't recall even more, sitting up he sees hanging up are a set of clothes seemingly fit for him to wear, black and red with glamourous golds to tie it all together...

After a moment a ghostly servant of sorts come to him and tells him to get dressed and come follow him to the gardens where "they" are waiting for him

Nervous of what'll happen if he disagrees right now, he does as he is told and waited for the servant to leave the room to change to the new clothes and stepped out, he followed the ghost to the location of the large and hauntingly beautiful dark gardens of many plants

There seated in a table at the center of the garden are the seven demons.

Kalim carefully sat with them, scared to look at any of them but more scared to upset him so he answered when they talk to him, nodded at yes or no questions, but why are they treating him like this? To make it even more fun when he dies in their hands? He finally spoke, "What am I doing here? Are...Are you going to kil-" His words were forced to a stop when a servant place a plate before him, his favorite food from childhood... But how-

The eight men talked a bit more before they finally informed Kalim he'll stay with them from now on. "Why?" Kalim was unable to not blurt out. The men look at one another, a silent agreeance, before they speak, "We pick you to be our's."

Days passed since that first meeting about Kalim's new living arrangements, and it's been doing alright.

Kalim started to get used to these demons, even more when he realize one of them was Jamil! As it turned out he was banished after he got back from the test he was an alpha and they assumed Kalim would be one and didn't want them to fight, not knowing until after the banishment that Kalim was actually an Omega... After the banishment, Jamil was fortunately found by a man who turns out was the previous demon of Envy and taught him the ways of ruling and magic. He also grew to understand that he has met every one of the other demons - Riddle, Leona, Azul, Vil, Idia, and Malleus - some time before they saved him from his attempted sacrifice ritual

Overtime since he began his new living arrangement, Kalim began to see the sides of these seven he never thought to see before. They may be seen as scary and intimidating, but they really are so different than what Kalim heard from the stories... He grew to adore Riddle's awe of the wildlife in the garden and how he loves games and his roses. He grew to like Leona's strong will of equal rights for everyone. He grew to admire hearing Azul's little rambles of paper work and how he can do so much in so little time. He grew to love Jamil's strong will and sharp tongue. He grew to like Vil's knowledge of nature and what it can give you in potion making. He grew to admire Idia's little rants and chill talks with him about his hobbies and interests. He grew to love Malleus' quirks and clingy methods of love and cuddles.

It didn't take much from wandering around the new home of his and going around the lands with them that he feel deeper and deeper in love with all of them. And like him, it didn't take much for them to make it clear they want him in a much deeper romantic sense

It was a whole six months since they saved him when the signs of gentle warmth and romance begun to show their heads to Kalim.

Riddle started to invite him to have sweets with him or a garden stroll

Leona naps a lot but now he's offering Kalim to nap with him or read beside him while he cuddles him

Azul began to offer travel plans to Kalim and spoiled him plenty with new clothes and items

Jamil began to cook more foods Kalim loves and helped him in dancing if wanted or needed

Vil started to do relaxing spa like methods for Kalim, setting up luxurious baths and spa facials, he also begun to give the boy his books if he so ask

Idia was starting to talk more with Kalim and they watched the stars together

And Malleus has invited him on many moonlit strolls across the gardens

It was after a while of all this did the seven sat Kalim down and asked him properly if they can all be lovers, that if he's okay being their omega. At this point, Kalim was not once uncomfortable by any of them and none of them tried anything to him without asking first. He agreed rather happily and thus the new romance begun!

The eight began to live their lives comfortably as lovers, they had to get used yes but they worked

Over time with their help the lovers really begun to get used to each other thanks to the heats.

Now, for the first one, as they weren't lovers yet, they all made sure Kalim was locked in his room and fought tooth and nail of their temptations to mate with him. The sweet coconut and sand scent he was giving off while he stole the varies clothes and items of theirs's for his nest nearly drove them mad

So, luckily, by the time the next heat happened they were all together and ready for it

The first night was a long passionate one with them eagerly exploring each other and how much their sweet omega can take

Each time they took mental notes with anything that gave their Kalim pleasure

Kalim's poor skin is just covered in bites and marks

[kirus-grotto]

“…what?”

“I..I’m sorry.” Crowley repeated. “I’m afraid there’s no way to send you back from where you came..”

Yuu stared defeated, gaze lowering down to the floor. “But.. you. Y-you said that…”

“I know,” he replies sadly. “It’s just that no matter what I do nothing seems to work. It’s as of your world doesn’t exist.”

Tears sprang free from their eyes, flowing quickly down their cheeks. “I’ve been here four years. Four long years..” Yuu muttered just before laughing. “Four years of solving EVERY DAMNED PROBLEM that’s shown up. From doing tasks that could have KILLED ME,” they continued, laughing harder as more tears came, “to solving ALL of the overblots that you could have stepped in for!”

Here Crowley cringed, finally showing some remorse. “I-I… I admit that I haven’t been the best at—“

Yuu now began laughing harder. “Oh! I’ll say!” More tears sprang from their eyes as they laughed. “I’ve been stabbed in the back more times from you than I ever have from anyone else!” They took a deep breath, their skin now beginning to physically bubble slightly; their form now beginning to bend at strange angles.

“I’ve been through worse than hell in this place, never once being thanked for what I’ve done!” They yelled. “All while you’ve claimed to research how to get me home! You’ve done NOTHING to help!” They yelled louder, eyes now turning black.

Crowley felt his eyes widen as he witnessed this magicless student begin to turn into an overblot monster. “Y-Yuu!” He stammered out. “Please! I-I implore for you to calm down! If you could wait just a bit longer I’m sure—“

“IM SICK OF WAITING!” The student screamed, their form changing even more. “You useless, good for nothing, headmage, have no right to even call yourself great… I’m so sick of all the excuses. I’ll make my own way home…” bones cracked as they now stood their fully transformed height. “No matter what it takes!”

[poisoned-pearls]

Start a series where I draw like, different time points in my person twst timeline (mainly w/ my hc’s and ships)

mainly bc I think it’s funny if Jamil gains like, 6/7ish cm on Azul over the summer and their third year. It’d be such a thing™ with them. Jamil would never let Azul forget it. Bc you KNOW Azul was holding that 1 cm over Jamil’s head all through their 2nd year so 3rd year is Jamil’s revenge. He has the height now.

[twisted-wonderland-but-gayer]

I'm so glad to have found a blog that writes for twst and does male pronouns. Such good writing too! I'm not gonna lie, I have it bad for Jamil. I love his character. He's so smart and has such a pretty design! If it's okay, could you possibly do something nsfw where he's trying to calm an overbloting mc? The idea of mc trying to be loving and gentle with Jamil while trying to fight off the blot and all the stress that Crowley puts on them just gives me such bad brainrot. I love the idea that Jamil sees them trying to be careful with him even in such a state causes him to realize that he is loved and not seen as just some servant. Regardless, thank you for giving the fandom such good content.

Blot Poisoning

So this didn't really become NSFW is anything it was the tinest bit suggestive and I apologize. If you want to send this again for some gentle monsterfucking feel free.

Read tags for TWS! it is a little dark

Blot poisoning. It threatened to swallow you whole as it coursed through your veins. Veins, now a nightmare black and protruded out of your skin, making deep-dark patterns that spread across your arms and body. How could you even get this? The question in the back of your head died as another pulsing migraine came on. 

Your head throbbed as you held it- now sharpened talons that were once normal nails threatening to dig into your skull. Intrusive thoughts that weren't your own whispered and groaned in a cacophony of harsh sounds. This blot felt like a sentient virus threatening to hollow out your body to puppeteer you.

Kill them. They have nothing but hurt you. They tried to kill you. I am just trying to protect you, can't you see? They've done nothing for us! All they do is use us. They will hurt you again! I can't let that happen. They're going to kill us! Please!

Paranoid delusions and violent answers slurred with the sounds of groaning, creaking, crackling, and scratching ate at you. In a way, they were right. You didn't matter. That is why you were the errand-runner. Easily replaceable. Without a family to mourn you and sue the school or true friends that genuinely didn't care you never had a leg to stand on and defend yourself with. 

Basic needs like shelter, water, and food can be stripped away the second you weren't useful. Your value was never within you but rather what you can do for everyone else. No one else gives a damn either. All you've gotten were judgmental stares and sneers. 

Everyone that knew your situation didn't bother to help. They didn't bother to offer you even the scraps of their food, or bandage for your wounds. You never even got a damned 'Hey how are you?' Even your close friends with the freshmen make fun of you for doing favors so easily, completely ignorant to the true extent of your reasons and suffering. You've been crying out for help ever since you got here and everyone misconstrues your cries for an orchestra of entertainment. You are in a world that isn't your own and suffocates you.

Your body felt numb. There was bile threatening to rise up your throat as you moved your hands from your head to your arms, digging them in and letting out a shriek of anguish and frustration. The monster inside you beckoned and comforted, trying to get you to listen. You want to go home. You want to die.

A knock at the door is mistaken for pounding in your head before it is opened. The Scarabian Vice-Housewarden strolls in. You haven't even noticed during your episode someone else was there. "Yuu– are you…" 

The voice trails off, making you turn around to see him. Him. Jamil Viper. It was a rough start, a very very rough start but just somehow, somehow your pathetic self managed to make friends with him after everything. Somehow you managed to get close to him. Perhaps it was the way he would offer you a meal or wouldn't immediately question you when you take on yet another errand. 

Just basic acts of kindness melted your brain and made you pathetically attached. You craved just the smallest ounce of kindness and grasped desperately for a warm hand. You must have looked so desperate to him, but deep inside after hearing his story, you know how desperate he must be too for the same thing. Misery loves company, perhaps not so much for Jamil. So desperate for a bit of validation you fell in love with someone that shows basic kindness. The feeling seemed mutual with how you both started dating…. A while later to say the least.

You didn't even realize you were staring at him magically, you must look insane to him. Jamil was frozen stiff, shocked expression turning into a forced calm. He recognized the signs of an overblot– hell, he's done it himself, but this looked different.

Your eyes were sunken and glowing, your body looked like it was gonna cave in, and there were all sorts of scratches across your body. The energy around you was menacing and the way your pupils dilated was feral. This was beyond an overblot.

"Yuu… calm down," Jamil took a few careful steps toward you avoiding direct eye contact and trying to seem non-threatening. "I'm not gonna hurt you…" "Jamil, what's wrong with me?" Your voice seemed faint like it was going out. "..." 

He carefully reached out a hand towards your arm, flipping it to see the extent of the damage. The blot was in your system, your veins. His stomach churned at the sight of tangled and visible black veins, pumping poison. Through your body. "Stay here, I'll go get you help." "No, wait! I... I'm afraid to be alone with myself! Please don't leave me! I-i don't know what to do! This thing won't stop until I or the people around me are dead!" 

Jamil closed his eyes. He took out his phone and texted for help, informing your group of friends about your situation. From there it was time to soothe, and step through your blot.

****

It has been a week. Most of the poison has been flushed out of your system. Chances are this will stay within you for quite some time, the doctor said. 'It was festering for a while, you have a lot of self-control to have not given in' they said. You shut yourself off from visitors. You didn't feel like dealing with Crowley or seeing anyone right now. Even now you looked over at your nearly broken phone, cracked screen flashing every minute or so with people asking if you were okay for once in your life.

You needed to see Jamil. That wasn't very cool of you at all to let him see you like. To put your life in his hands. You wanted to apologize, maybe even break things off with him. Your body was fine, and the doctors even encouraged you to go out for a walk when you felt safe.

Informing them of your walk during the evening, they gave you a pass and you slipped out in your hospital gown and pajama pants. Your grippy socks made sticky noises as you walked off to the hall of mirrors.

So far, undetected. Not many students were out, and the ones who were simply didn't care. Scarabia was surprisingly scarce for once. You assume Kalim knew it would be inappropriate to throw a party after hearing about what his friend went through. 

Jamil's door was right in front of you. You knocked softly and stood there for a few moments. What do you do? You scratched at your head for a moment before the door opened in front of you. Your lover stood there, completely shell-shocked for a moment. You used that as an opportunity to slip in and shut the door, not wanting anyone to be seen.

Now you both stood there. Jamil gawked at you and you looked nervously at him before the words came to you. "I wanted to apologize for all of that… I didn't- I mean— I'm sorry. You shouldn't have had to deal with that, no one should have. I should have just dealt with it on my own. If you want to break up I under-" "Y-you fool."

Jamil's voice shook and he held onto you tightly, allowing tears to roll down his face. "Do you know how worried I was?! You were taken away for a week with no answer to if you were okay or not– knowing you were suffering like that for so long??" Jamil's voice grew hoarse.

"Then having to realize just everything that you've done." Jamil pulled away, holding your face in his hands. "I was scared I was going to lose you because I realized something. You saved my life too. You saved so many lives from so many overblots, you're just— and I" Jamil trails off again, and you hug him close to you. 

"I'm sorry for never checking on you. You seemed so strong and I was… weak. I didn't know you needed me and I thought you were okay, and I was wrong but I realize that now. I went in to check on you and I was almost too late…" Jamil shakily pushed you away and regained his composure, his eyes were clothes as he stood there, controlling his breathing. After what felt like minutes he opened his eyes and look at you.

"I... I didn't mean to…" You wrapped your arms around him and pulled him close just standing there for a few moments. "I missed you," your voice a whisper and you squeezed onto him. It took a moment before Jamil returned the hug. "You… ugh.."

"Just don't ever do that again…" Jamil muttered. You spend the rest of the night in each other's embrace, catching up with each other, memorizing each other's bodies, and locking lips. The blot was still in your system and you can feel it coursing through you once again, inky tentacles under your skin threatening to burst out of your back…

But perhaps you'll save that for another night when you get used to your new abilities along with these new urges. You still had much to use after all. Claws, a long tongue, some fangs. Perhaps this poisoning wasn't so bad…

i had the silliest idea and like basically the first and second years swapped so like all the second years are first years and vice versa which is funny because like. idk. i was in the car because road trip and I randomly thought of it

the roles of ace and deuce are taken by jamil and azul because!!!!!!!!! i love them and also similar dynamic and they both still overblot or at least jamil does and this also means kalim joins late and

this is less of a silly idea and now im brainrotting I love the second years they are so silly and they all need to be friends like the first years

accidentally brainrotted more in the tags you might wanna read those mb-

So a bit of an angst thought for Overblot in non magic users (TW discussion of blood veins, bleeding, vomit, and death); Due to magic users having a pen that has a mage stone that takes the blot instead of being inside their bodies. With non magic users if they experience blot, which would be considered rare in Twisted Wonderland, it instead appears in the blood flow instead. It would start by showing the signs by their veins, the blue/green color of the veins darken showing up as the darker colors before becoming black. This will also cause some health problems with those people due to ink poisoning and could also cause vomiting of blood and bile and excessive nosebleeds due to the body trying to get rid of the toxins from the ink of blot appearing in the blood flow. The reason for a non magic user to have blot is unknown at the current moment, many believe it is the dormant magic that traps itself inside of their bodies, or possibly their mental state and extreme “bad” emotions take a turn, or maybe it is for some outlier reasoning that the scientists haven’t discovered, who can say. But if one does happen to reach a point where they have reached Overblot they will not transform but rather die. It is possible that they die before they could reach that state due to the amount of blood the body rejects, combined with the ink poisoning that now flows in their veins. That is why all non magic users when these signs show up it’s seen as an impossible feat to cure, being the last few days or weeks alive. As far as the scientists and doctors of twisted wonderland know; none have survived this fate, it is considered a death omen for non magic users. They have tried the approach of proper rest, eating and such but due to the blood loss and constant flow of vomit, it is seen as an impossible task.

I know this may be seems to be a bit sensitive, but would you help azul to have healthy relationships with food? Since while he is in diet food regiment too but it seems like his reaction to food is more....harsh than yours. Riddle also seems have a strict view to food when he was home and only open up after his....you know. I want to see you three having session about food and how to have healthy reaction to food.

(To kazumi: if this ask to sensitive to you, you can ignore this. Since i heard, azul view to food may actually sign of him having ED(Eating Disorder). And for riddle it just how his mom teach him but i don't really know if it count as ED too or not)

Of course. Azul is... Usually not the type to ask for help on anything like this, but if he reached out, I most definitely would. I do encourage him to eat when I can; he is on a good diet though, so it's hard to get him to eat without being obsessive over his food. I can convince Rook to steal Azul's charts when Azul doesn't notice so he can't write his calories down. It helps at least in the moment.

I do speak to Riddle and help him with his food issues. However, I think Trey does well with helping Riddle on his own, so I don't meddle there too much unless Riddle comes to me for help.

Jack Howl Should've Meddled More—

As I look back on the Flopanaclaw Chapter I can't help but feel like Jack Howl should've meddled more/had a better reason not to meddle

How you gonna have an entire character whose sense of justice is so strong that he gets one whiff of a funky smelly smell in a cafeteria full of boys and immediately approach the TWEELS and rips their mysterious briefcase out their hands (a whole battle sequence bruh)

or beefs with his whole dorm and dorm leader about whether they should cheat in magical football with extra steps or not.

Like immediately—he spots the tweels with a briefcase after smelling a smell so rancid and he just walks up to them, demand they show him and contents and just snatches it out of their hand like Floyd and Jade weren't ready to kick his ass.

Not even Leona gives those twins the time of day and ur talking about some random first year pulling up on them so he can eat his food in peace?

In fact, Savanaclaw could've started off strong if they began with Jack confronting Leona about the magift players getting murked leading to an entirely different set of events, especially if Leona dismisses his concerns because his dorm hasn't faced any injuries.

Then, after Leona shows the first year investigation squad how Magift is usually played Jack could've approached him a second time this time finding out that Leona is behind it all.

Jack essentially being a noncharacter with one note agency sucks because he's the one Character you take the most liberties with because he's not based off any Disney characters, and justice being his trademark can open a lot of doors when it comes to NRC and his brand of justice and also world building about legal systems in twst and....

All I'm trying to say is Jack could've been a great character without relying on being in a dynamic.

Did Ace, Duece, And MC ever tell the rest of their friends about fighting the overblot in the mines? Cause I know everyone seems to be aware that the three of them nearly got expelled, but I can’t recall if they ever told the whole story?

I Just imagine everyone chilling and then one of the trio causally brings up almost dying in the mines and the rest of the group is divided between “wHaT?!” And “yeah that tracks for you three..”

//SPOILERS TO TWISTED, IT TAKES 2 HOURS AND FREE ON YOUTUBE, JUST SO YOU CAN UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M SAYING (WARNING: IT'S MATURE. VERY MATURE AND COULD HAVE POTENTIAL TRIGGERING TOPICS.//

ALSO TW/CW; DEATH, MURDER, STOCKHOLM SYNDROME MENTION, OVERBLOTS, EXECUTIONS. PLEASE TELL ME IF I MISSED ANYTHING.//

This is all serious. I'm being genuine right now. Please do read the content warnings. Thank you.

This is the final warning to scroll away for your sake, because I don't know if you will be triggered or left uncomfortable with this.

So. I recently I watched a thing called "Twisted"; a story about the Untold Story about the Royal Vizier, it's a very mature version of Aladdin but it's Ja'far's point of view. It's also to mock the movie I believe?? Idk.

But one of it's songs, "Twisted" in specific, caught my eye.

I'm a big fan of TWST (obviously, you can see it by my blog/account) but the song had... Interesting information and I'd like to analyze it.

So, if you decided not to watch or listen to the song, let me sum it up for you:

Aladdin convinced the Sultan that Ja'far is a sorcerer and the Sultan believed him. Ja'far ran away because they were planning to execute him. But then while he's being sad, the other Disney "Villains" (Ursla, Scar, Gaston, Maleficent, Hook, and Cruella)

Why am I air quoting the villains?

Their parts in the song reveal their true intentions and why they are the way they are.

Ursla was a good ruler, but overthrown by her brother, aka Ariel's dad, due to him believing "women should be seen and never heard" (exact line from the song) but she just wanted continue being a good ruler but became a "villain" to get what she lost due to her brother.

Gaston loved Bell and wanted to save her from the "buffalo monster" (his words, not mine) and thought it's unhealthy that she fell in love with the said monster. It is. And it's called Stockholm Syndrome. And if I'm honest, he's got a point. It is unhealthy that she fell in love with a capturer.

Scar was progressive. "Both hyenas and lions lived in perfect harmony" (exact lyrics) but his brother, aka Mufasa, ate his cubs and made him and the hyenas go back. Which is probably the reason he hated Simba, Mufasa ate his cubs and yet he got a cub. He just wanted everyone to be in harmony, yet his brother didn't listen.

Maleficent didn't get much but she got the fact she wanted to be included and invited to the party. "I only wanted to be invited to the party." (Lyrics).

Neither did Hook but he had a point, "I just wanted to teach the boy responsibility!" (Lyrics) and he's got a point, he wanted to teach the lost kids how to be responsible and he also said/sung, "I never knew my father!" (Lyrics) Which is probably implying that he just wanted to be a father figure to them when he never had one.

Cruella... She only got one line and she said, "I only wished to have a coat made out of puppies!" And yeah. Nothing much to say about her.

Now. Why am I bringing all this up? Is it because the musical was great and genuinely made me cry? (It did but that's not the point here)

I would've said cuz connections but there is none. Instead, I'm giving a AU idea.

Azul's cousin is Rielle (or in my case, Ari) and they, Rielle, stole the lounge or something like that when Azul was supposed to have it. Cue Azul overblot pt. 2

Leona is Scar obviously, but it does make sense in this AU that he hates kids. He got his own kid(s) who were y'know... Killed... By his brother. But he also just wanted to live in peace, it doesn't happen.

Gaston is Coach Vargas. I don't really know what to say about him?? Like Stockholm Syndrome... For his lover... I guess you can make a Male! Belle (listen my gay uncle Vargas hc is here and you can't stop me) fall in love with the Buffalo guy who kidnapped him and Vargas is just watching like "Bro.... No."

But for Maleficent... It's already canon for Malleus so it doesn't count.

Hook doesn't have a canon character. But it's implied that the fairies are like Tinkerbell and stuff so... Idk.

Cruella and Crewel... I don't have anything for the two. They're already practically the same... Minus the puppies.

But what about... Ja'far and Jamil? Aladdin dude in RSA probably convinced (more like manipulated but go off Ig.) the Sultan aka Kalim that Jamil is untrustworthy and must be executed. Kalim didn't agree but his parents did so Jamil had to run away before the execution. With Kalim's help of course!

And here we are. The unfortunate paths of them.

The Vizier TWST AU.

... :)

So in conclusion, it's 9:19 pm for me, I'm sick, and I just thought of this for no reason.

I would appreciate if you give any feedback or something but I truly don't care if you don't, I appreciate you for sitting/standing/laying/anything through this random adventure.

And I'm open for any questions, if you want to make a fanfic on this, go ahead. Just tag me cuz I like seeing other works!

Good day/night,

Void aka w4t3rgun

My Phantom Bride ideas

Making a list of some of the different ideas I've had for writing fanfiction for Twisted Wonderland's Phantom Bride Event. I don't know if I'll actually write them all out. If I do, a good amount will probably be done at later times since I don't have character intro posts for them all ready yet.

-Bobo challenges Eliza for Idia's hand in marriage. (Would technically be a au of an au- Twst Bobo follows the game's storyline pretty closely and this would deviate quite a bit.)

-Bobo joins the B Team as one of the Suitors. (This would be closer to how Bobo would follow the game event, though somewhat of an au offshoot since I think it would be fun for Bobo to try to win Eliza's heart, but the last group never really gets to try. They sorta do with the doorman ghost.)

-Hex joins in as one of the suitors and upon being rejected, he absolutely loses it. Eliza doesn't get a slap in in time as Hex uses his chaos magic as he throws a crybaby tantrum over being rejected. Using his chaos magic, he creates the illusion of him being Idia and Idia looking like someone.

-Sophia, who has adopted Idia and Ortho as her family, barges in with Ortho, crying about how cruel and mean it is for Eliza to take their brother away from them. The two trying to guilt-trip Eliza into releasing Idia. If that doesn't work, Sophia and Ortho are going to shoot up the place- and probably end up joining the failed suitors in being frozen. Maybe Idia loses his cool at his brother being slapped and breaks a bit of the delusional image Eliza has of him, but she is in heavy denial...

-Milo and CatMask? Milo, six or so-year-old mute mage is horrified by the idea of anyone being killed. So he tries to stop the wedding despite it being very scary to him. The ghosts cause young boy to cry and CatMask goes ballistic. CatMask already upset that Milo is trying to throw himself into danger, now has a proper target for its rage upon them making the boy cry. CatMask blazes through the ghosts and goes to attack Eliza, Puffy steps in the way and thus Eliza realizes her true love.

-Grim actually tries to win Eliza's heart. In the event the boys did goad him into helping by saying how he has no chance of winning her heart. So cue ghosts confusion upon this small cat saying he's a suitor and them asking if he's a cursed prince.

There are a few more of my ocs that I have imagined them if they were to interact with certain points in the game's story, but there isn't all that much interesting potential for them.

Like Riddles would be pretty similar to Hex's, except she's calm and using her illusion magic right away to confuse Eliza and the ghosts until they break down and give up. Cinder is absolutely useless- Psyfur would attend as a guest and point out Puffy to Eliza, just very calm and boring.

Piper could have potential except for the major thing of she wouldn't know how to do what I have in mind. CatMask without a ward wouldn't really feel motivated to help out. If it's directed by those it favors to help, it'll only give a half-hearted effort. Basically sneaking in and trying to carry Idia away. Then could just end up similar to Milo's ending wise.

The one's I really want to write are both versions of Bobo's and Hex's. I would love to show off how chaotic Hex's magic is. Especially give an idea of how dangerous Hex's duberio ancestors were.

If any of you find any of these ideas interesting and would like to see them, please send in an ask for one of the prompts after I get Bobo's fight for Idia's hand in marriage one up. That will help motivate me to write them as otherwise who knows if I'll actually write the others.

Edit:

I forgot to add this idea!

-After event aftermath of Bobo fighting for Idia's hand where Crowley sets up a small class for a selective few to learn how to propose to royalty. He sets Bobo up as the teacher and doesn't even bother supervising or checking in on it at all. Leona and Malleus are the students, but perhaps a few other students get to try it upon showing interest. Bobo sets it up as a bit of a game, basing it off of her own kingdom's customs and hiding bits of knowledge of these customs amongst ghosts and the octavinelle trio.

Her reasoning being that if they're visitors to her kingdom, they'll have to go about to learn about it. Since she's pulling in some of the ghosts, the ramshackle three, to help her with this, she'll have them know. She'll hint to look about for this info, but wont tell them where the sources are. Will also give some knowledge to the Octavinelle trio along with telling them its up to them how they give out this knowledge and if they actually give it or lie since there's always the chance of learning the wrong stuff from the wrong sources. Also bringing up they should still be cautious about how they try to obtain information since the Octavinelle trio could choose to force them to sign contracts first.

For this aftermath prompt, I will take some character suggestions.
