Exploration(pt3)

Octavinelle

We left savanaclaw once grim had enough energy to continue. I can only prey that this one wouldn't be so bad as both previous wings weren’t actually half bad and got a little workout from it. I entered Octavinelle only to get a hit with a stale smell. Almost metallic but seemed to be covered by this smell of the sea. There are aquariums in here don’t get me wrong but there’s no fish so it shouldn't smell, especially after making sure the tanks are clean. I looked down at grim who looked scared and made an attempt to climb up my pants. After allowing him to hike on my shoulder I began exploring. The entire place was cool and due to the blueish lighting, places were a bit dark. While walking I entered the dining room which looked like it was turned to a restaurant in the 20’s. The place was lit by dim lamps which were soft on the eyes which accompanied the large light glow of the tank next to us. “Welcome” a voice echoed. I turned in front of me to see a silver haired male. He just has a white blouse, a purple bow tie,dress pants that are clipped with matching black suspenders and cummerbund. He had golden glasses attached by one gold chain that had pearls. He was leaning back on the bar facing me with a casual smile “we were waiting for you” he said as a shadow passed making me turn to the tank. Nothing. The necklace vibrates like crazy as hands slide on my shoulder making me swiftly move out the way to see him behind me “Azul Ashengrotto, at your service” he said while he bows. I looked at him a bit freaked out while grim hissed equally as freaked out. “Allow me to get you a drink.you look in need of one.” azul said sounding slightly concerned. He vanished before i could protest. We left the restaurant as soon as he left. This reminds me to start looking for that key to that locked room. I began my journey upstairs in the office but i only found a feathered pen. Hey might as well take it. Now I have a feather pen in my inventory. On the desk next to the pen was a newspaper. All of this was about business ratings and the stock market with a few ads here and there. Nothing important. When I put the paper down I heard bangging downstairs. I knew where it was coming from. I walked back downstairs and reached the locked door. Grim meowed in protest but I just gave him an apologetic look. I pulled out the pick lock kit and began to unlock the door. By this time grim is off my shoulder hiding between my legs. Inside the room was a large and deep pool. I guess that’s what Crowley was talking about. The pool had a soft blue glow due to the pool lights which did not help the dark room once so ever. Then the door slammed shut behind me. When I turned I heard rippling notices from the water which added to grim hissing as his hairs stick on ends. I looked back into the deep pool to see  a pair of heterochromic eyes gazing at me from the deep end. Watching my every move. Without skipping a beat, some person lunged out from the pool making me scream and fall backwards as grim hisses and yelps just as mortified as me. This teal like being crawls along the now wet floor towards my terrifying form as he laughed.  A second almost identical creature crawls out from the water and just sits there watching and grinning at my misery. With all of my mental capacity I got up from the floor, grabbed grim who was practically clawing on my shirt and ran out the now unlocked door. I slammed the twin doors shut as I huffed and puffed, regaining the air I lost from that jumpscare. My legs shook as I began to walk out the door “do come back” I heard Azul say as I left the door. When i whipped around the doors closed shut

POV: your loser bullies boyfriends take you to a haunted house!

[imissa3en]

I suddenly remembered these twst haunted house headcannons by @/elenamegan14 and i wanted to draw something for it

I may have strayed off description but i had fun

Part 1 /??

Might either draw savannaclaw next or another set of heartslabyul

[fujii-draws]

@s1nn0hh’s post’s making me realize (even more) how much wasted potential pmd2 Darkrai had. Yknow. The NIGHTMARE Pokémon.

‘Ooooh im going to pretend to be Cresselia and tell h/p to kill themselves’ I think pretending to be Grovyle and saying they failed him in a dream is enough to make them consider jumping off the Bluff.

twisted wonderland au! House of mouse

Oswald¡ Reader is like the other HoM aus but every time someone sees her they get this sense of deja vu, also in this on Oswald can leave the readers body they show up in a physical form but the reader doesn’t her the extra luck, Mickey was shocked and almost cried when he first showed up.

Singer¡ Reader the reader one in a while sing on the stage like Disney and non Disney songs, every week before Halloween she sings songs like In the Dark of the Night, Oogie Boogie song, kinnap the sandy claws and grim grinning ghosts. Oogie almost cried when the reader song his song and Lock, Shock, and Barrel where happy they where included, they also dress up with what they are singing, The villains are happy when the reader dresses like them to sing there son.

Haunted Mainsion the ghost from the haunted mansion like everyone else they love the reader, they especially feel close when the reader tells them they live in a abandoned dorm with three other ghosts. Also don’t talk about the ghost bride in front of them. Bride that killer her husband’s: gives the reader a axe Reader: no

[jesncin]

Like Superman Red-Son and Smashes the Klan, if you could choose any time in history and any place on earth to explore how it would affect the characters to live there, when and where?

(doesn't need to be something you actually plan to draw, just whatever pops into your head)

Ooh I love the idea of period narratives! It's a bit of a challenge because like Smashes the Klan, the time period my au takes place is in a specific historical time frame. Lois would have to be 4-5 years old during the 1998 May Riots, which caused her family to immigrate to the US. I feel the best time periods for a Superman story are times of migrant tension, because that's where Superman's themes shine (I'm not a big history buff so I can't say exactly when).

For fun and vibes though!! Prohibition era Batman would slap, and I would love Meiji Restoration Batman. Hong Kong (any period) based Martian Manhunter would be cool too! J'onn and Ma'al detectiv-ing around Sham Shui Po, love that image. Constantine in Southeast Asia, or even Indonesia (any period). I hear there's a lot of ghosts here ;P

[spectrolitha]

I forgor to post my fave twst piece I've ever made wooops

By the way @fishforel made her version of this piece! Take a look :]

I have way too many twst AUs... This Idea is from Past!Au, for example.

The main idea is "what if twst cast lived a few centures earlier?". The potion for mers to become humans is not yet invented - but a trio of a very dedicated (and trustworthy ;)) mers is working on it. The human-fae conflict is ongoing. The Shroud family is not yet cursed at the beginning of the story, but (spoilers heh) at the end of it Idia, as the last heir to his family, is cursed by Jupiter family and sentenced to death (because plot). That's the Idia you see at the picture — prior to curse his hair is black.

Thankfully, the three mermen (I wonder who those are...) have found a way to turn into humans thanks to Yuu's help, and in return for their service, those mers grant Yuu's wish to save Idia from execution. Honestly, this whole AU is self-indulgent hot mess, but I enjoyed thinking about it. Maybe I'll do it again in the future.

Surveillance duty au :D

Y'all voted for it and here it is✨

The first twst horror au I ever did~

And it's Florid flavour too! :D

Naturally, this is the starter of a funny headcanon I had around, who made a cameo in a few works of mine too. So keep in mind that this is a very old au. Maybe you'll find sum Easter eggs to one of my latest ones. :3

Anyhow! A few trigger warnings right off the batch and then we can properly start this bandwagon. :v

We have trigger warnings for: Blood, gore and body horror!

This is a horror au after all... So ya know... Gotta keep the flair✨

Now onto the explanation!

In here, our lovely Riddle is a logics and psychology teacher at Night Raven Highschool (NRH for short). The reason he's a teacher is because of his love of learning and helping others learn. His mother was against the idea, which ended up with her disowning him. Therefore Riddle changed his name from Weinachts to Rosehearts, a way to cut ties completely with his mom.

And that would've been it, if that woman didn't insist to keep reminding him how much of a failure he became: a poor paying job, living alone and with little to no respect from other people. Well... 2 out of the 3 were wrong at least. Riddle did have a decent salary and he was very respected amongst other people.

But, at the start of a new school year, Riddle finally is a homeroom teacher. He has a class to be in charge of! He was looking forward to it... Until the actual class proved to be menaces.

One day, pretty early into the year, the Nightshift guard of the school called in for some family business. Therefore that night he couldn't cover. And Crowley assigns Riddle to take the said place instead. Trey, a volunteer teacher, also offers to go along Riddle and help him out.

It's also important to describe the security room layout for now: a small room, with a desk on which a monitor and a weird keyboard with very specific buttons are. On the side there is a couch and at one of it's ends, a mini-refrigerator is put. It's small, with tile floor and plain walls.

And the whole shift starts. Trey is the one who goes first on the surveillance duty. The old man instructed them how to use the set-up: see an anomaly and report it using the buttons for place and type. He also gave them a warning: when the screen flashes a message, avoid the camera on the said place and use the report button for 'special case'. Also do NOT ever get out during the shift. That door has to stay locked at all costs during the night. :v

Naturally, Riddle thought all of those was bullshit. He did find Trey's small paranoia to be a response caused by the lack of sleep, so he offers at one point to switch, so he could grade the tests at the desk and Trey could get some rest. The latter does admit that he's a bit shaken up, but he also blames it on a lack of sleep.

The problem is that Riddle was only focusing on the grading tests. Sometimes he switches in between cameras, in case he catches some vandal trying to sneak in or something like that.

That's why, when the special warning arrives for the gym camera, Riddle didn't even pay attention and accidentally switched to it, which resulted in a long static.

And an inhumane, scaly hand, with long claws, sticking out of it and grabbing Riddle's arm. Naturally, out of the spook, the redhead jerked his hand, thus getting it scratched and all bloody. In all of that panic, Riddle falls off the chair, waking up Trey and starting a chain reaction of panicking :'3

So Trey first barricades the door with the couch, before he tries to tend to Riddle's bleeding arm and figure out what the hell was going on. Something was coming and banging on the door, trying to force their way inside.

And they do manage, much to the horror of the 2 men. Riddle already was too sleep deprived and in pain to process things. All he knows is that Trey was knocked down on the floor and that the thing grabbed him before he passed out.

When they do wake up, it's morning and everything was just like new. The only signs that something did happen was the bruises Riddle and Trey had from falling on the hard floor. No more arm wound and the security room was impeccably clean too.

So the 2 tried to reason that maybe all this lack of sleep and relying only on coffee did mess a bit with their head last night.

But the first night the guard returned, in the morning the poor man was found horrified and quit from the job, while on a hall wall, a message was smudged in red paint, saying 'see you next lesson :)'. Of course, the whole student body was rustling with rumors and scary stories about 'the prom ghost', a legend among the school about a, presumably, dead kid attending a prom of the school, despite never being a student or having any records whatsoever. They started to go nuts about it and swarm the library to ask for the yearbook albums from previous years.

Riddle was trying to have a quiet and nice homeroom when his students asked him if he used to be a student here. Naturally, the latter was seeing this as innocent curiosity and maybe he thought he could set a nice example for them, by sharing some of his own high-school experience, but nope... These lil shits wanted to know if Riddle's prom was the one where the school myth came to be.

Unfortunately it was right, but Riddle tried to reassure that it was just some vandal that sneaked in for a party and nothing more.

Riddle was more than tired about this. Give him a break, man. U-Ub

So, seeing that the redhead was once offered for the Nightshift duty, Crowley assigns Riddle again! Yay! :D

And being done with that 'creepy message', Riddle was more than determined to stay up all night and catch the vandal.

How? The forbidden brew, ofc: 7 different energy drinks, pure coffee and that ice-ice baby. How he's not dead is a mystery to many. :'3

So Riddle does the job his own way. He finds a very simple explanation for anything and anything one would consider 'unnatural'. Weird noises? Some windows are shabby and outside is raining. Objects in weird spots? Students didn't place them back. Things falling off? Either someone put them wrong or Crowley needs to invest in better shelves. He walks across the halls with literally no bother just to go get his papers or something, then returns to the security room and minds his business peacefully.

And this ignorant bliss is what has Riddle face to face with the actual creature in front of him, pretty annoyed that Riddle brushed him off so easily.

Riddle's absolutely not having it. He tells the guy that he should 'drop the weird costume and get a real job' other than terrorise the night guards, before he calls the cops for breaking and entering. Like... He's fully convinced that this was just some random bored guy who decided to dress up as a monster and scare the living shit out of people at unholy hours.

And while half of it was true, the latter is not having it. He does inquire if Riddle remembers him. Of course the redhead remembered him. He was his partner to prom, after Riddle's highschool crush humiliated him in there. Of course he would remember that traumatising night. He wished he didn't, but that's how it is. The next year it would be that sweet 10 year reunion after all. Riddle was dreading it a bit, but alas, he finally addresses to the creature by its name: Floyd.

And Floyd is happy his 'goldfishie' remembers him, but is disappointed that the latter doesn't believe in magic and supranatural forces.

He does tell Riddle that he's special. He has magic of his own lingering inside, but it's all shoved in tight and hard to reach. Riddle does call it bullshit, but Floyd insists that last night, he saw it in his blood.

This, naturally has Riddle ghosting his arm where the scratch was supposed to be. He still refused to believe that happened. Not when the real evidence say otherwise, but Floyd does tell that he didn't intend on harming him so when Riddle yanked his hand in fear, he couldn't release his claws in time and thus the nasty wound.

Now a bit curious about where this whole bandwagon is going, Riddle does inquire to ask what's so special about his blood. The answer was simple: it reacts to magic. Normal blood doesn't react to magic, but Riddle's changed color and even evaporated when Floyd tried to heal his wound back up.

So the nasty bruise on the arm is actually stains from the said blood and Floyd doesn't know if it washes off or not.

Riddle does have a field trip that night, as Floyd is demonstrating spells he could do and casually talking about his kind and all that. The latter was welcomed in the security room, with 1 condition: don't tamper with anything. Naturally, the said creature didn't want to have no gain out of it, so for as long as Crowley has Riddle on Nightshift, the latter will have to welcome him in here and hang around. Floyd only seized the couch and there he sat all night, bothering Riddle and eventually getting the redhead to sleep.

One thing that Floyd mentioned off-hand was that, since Riddle had contact with magic now, most likely his own magic will start to creak out. That thing stuck with the redhead even the next day. And it was the perfect explanation for all the little odd things that happened that day: lights flickering when he got really annoyed, pens or papers slightly moving towards his hand when he wanted to grab one and even doors closing behind him without Riddle necessarily moving them.

At the Nightshift duty, Floyd seems very eager to see the latter's magic in action. Riddle does ask if he didn't pay attention during the day, but Floyd admits that, during the day, he sleeps.

Still, Riddle was fascinated by the said magic. By how it was so logic-breaking yet felt so natural. Of course, since Floyd was the reason behind the anomalies, the cameras were checked once in a while to see if vandals would try to sneak in the school. Other than that, Riddle went to sleep pretty early and left the rest to Floyd for handling.

And with a bit of time, the redhead was getting used to this new routine. He even brought in a blanket and a few pillows from home to make the couch more comfy, or some snacks to put in the refrigerator for both him and Floyd to eat. Riddle also learned how to control that little bit of magic that he had, so sometime he would use it to skip over some mundane things.

Riddle also couldn't help but ask Floyd what he's going to do when a new guard does get appointed. Floyd tho, happily responds that he already took care of it and that Riddle shouldn't 'beat his pretty head' with it too much. Just focus on your job and things will go smoothly.

In a few days, Crowley calls up Riddle to discuss about the Nightshift and how he managed to hire a new guard. So he asks Riddle to show him how the gist works at first.

Guess who the guard is?

That's right, Floyd is our Nightshift guard. Riddle is baffled at this, asking how the hell did Floyd even get hired, not to mention how he didn't get reported for bearing no actual legal identity!

The answer is simple: 1. Floyd does have legal documents (forged, ofc) about his existence. 2. Crowley accepted him, because on his 'CV' it was written: willing to work for any price.

Crowley's paying him 10 bucks an hour :'3

Riddle is very concerned about the payment, but Floyd reassures that he already lives in here. And his 'living expenses' are also paid by Crow man. :v

Besides, unlike normal humans, creatures of the night such as Floyd, have a whole other system of living. Once he gets himself free, he's simply going to return to his kind and live there.

Surprisingly, Riddle seems a bit bummed out by the news that, eventually, Floyd would break the seal and leave. The latter tho, offers for Riddle to come with him. He had magic and his blood indicated that there was something more inside him. There's no reason not to run away together. They could go and find a little safe colony far away to live peacefully together. Riddle shuts down the idea, saying that, unfortunately, he can't leave. He loves his job, his quiet life and he doesn't want to abandon his life long friends. Floyd may be bound to not leave this place because of a magic seal, but Riddle's bound to not leave this place because of his bonds and responsibilities.

Still, the 2 share a small kiss that night. Kind of a small milestone in their pretty odd relationship.

And things start to go well! Floyd puts a little effort to stay awake in the morning, to exchange a few sweet eyes with Riddle, while the latter would sometimes stay a bit over the program or leave for Floyd small treats to have on his job. Little things that make them both very happy and fuzzy inside.

Naturally, the students saw that and started to rumor in between them that the ice-cold heart of the tyrant teacher was melted by the intimidating guard.

But, all things nice must end at one point. U-U9

The staff did receive a notice of a maintenance visit from an authorised service upon the school systems. And Floyd was absolutely horrified about it. Riddle was sure he never saw the latter so panicked about something. So he does decide to stay over with him a bit, to calm down his nerves.

Floyd tho, hesitantly gets down from his neck a pendant. Riddle knew about the pendant being important for the latter, but he never got an answer as to why. And neither now is he getting one, since Floyd put it over the redhead's neck and told him to return it only after the inspection is clear. And if Riddle hears any suspicious voice, to please ignore it since the pendant might try to play with him.

Riddle was absolutely ready to call the latter nuts, but he knew better than to question magic things. So he promised the latter that he will keep the pendant safe before Floyd tucked him to sleep.

The next day, naturally Riddle was a bit on edge, but things went surprisingly quiet. At home tho, is when the latter started to feel like something was watching him. He tried to brush it off, but it kept pestering him.

Until he looked in his mirror, where his reflection was replaced with a silhouette made out of shadows. The said being was happy they finally got noticed, claiming that they were a manifestation of Riddle's powers, the last one of them.

Riddle was trying to ignore it, just as Floyd told him to, but the said little silhouette was a tease cranked up to 100. They did tell Riddle that first he manifested a bit of power and now, that he had the crown of the abyss, he could get out to light the rest. Naturally, the latter brushed it off, saying that it's saying blasphemy, but to prove the point, the shadow shows to Riddle how the pendant could turn into a pretty crown, then back into that small stone. They do tease that Floyd certainly hid that one from him, that he didn't tell Riddle, hoping to keep all that power to himself.

Of course, the latter denies it again. If Floyd had that much power at his disposal, he would've been free from the seal by now. The shadow goes to say that things aren't that easy with seals and that the second Floyd does get free, he'll dispose of Riddle in an instant. The pendant would be Riddle's only line of defense if he refuses to give it away as he promised.

The shadow did hit some pretty low points. Points which made Riddle to try and ignore it alongside Floyd. Both were 2 different sides and Riddle didn't know which one to pick. He was an adult, goddamnit! Yet here he was, feeling like a clueless child. He hated it, so he found out the best way was to tune it all out.

This doesn't fly by Floyd. With the inspection over, he knew Riddle had to keep his promise to him and return the pendant. So he insists for the latter to stay over the program and give it back. By that point, Riddle himself realised that if he gives the pendant back to Floyd, then that annoying shadow would stop bothering him, so he was more than eager to get rid of it from his neck.

But before he passes back the pendant, Riddle does have to ask one thing: why didn't Floyd tell him that it was a crown all along? That question makes Floyd to immediately switch his mood, now demanding that he gets back the pendant. It's not some silly game anymore and he is very much not playing anything. Riddle will get his answers after the pendant is back at Floyd.

That's when our lil shitty shadow comes into action, taking the pendant before Floyd could. The latter is genuinely scared of seeing the said silhouette and at this point Riddle knows that he shouldn't have even given the shadow a benefit of the doubt. But it was too late as the said 3rd thing declared. As Riddle's 2nd magic manifestations, it is its right to want the redhead more powerful than ever. And Floyd was their obstacle, denying Riddle of his right at power.

And that's when the shadow tries to shove the pendant gem down Riddle's throat. Seeing that, Floyd tries to also fight the silhouette, but it was too strong. It had enough time to draw from Riddle's magic by instigating doubt in the redhead and thus prolonging the time the pendant was with him.

In the end, Riddle does swallow the gem and the shadow happily disappears.

Both adults are scared, but Floyd was downright horrified, saying that he doesn't know when it will kick in or if Riddle would even survive it. This also scares Riddle since 'wdym IF I survive it?!'. He just swallowed a fucking stone that used to be a crown?! And Floyd isn't making things any better by also telling him that 'hey, you might blow up from the inside around now!'.

Unfortunately, that 'kick in' Happens right that moment, when Riddle is overcome by pain. His whole body felt like it was on glass and nails and he could only cry out in pain. Floyd couldn't do much, only hug him as best as he could and whisper sweet nothings and apologies to the latter. Thankfully, Riddle passes out before he could hit the half mark of the said transformation. And Floyd just stays like that with him, too afraid to even move an inch in any direction.

When Riddle wakes up, he realises 2 things.

1. His vision was much more clearer now

2. He had a weird craving to eat something

Floyd is insanely happy that the latter was alive. One cannot express how relieved he was when se saw the latter opening his eyes. It finally explained why Riddle had magic in the first place to begin with! Riddle tho, bursts that little happy bubble of the latter, by asking what in the world happend. So Floyd summons a mirror and helps the latter up.

And Riddle sees for the first time, just what kind of creature he became.

He had his body stained in ink at the end of the limbs and over his upper face, in a gradient, long claws, 2 pairs of wings, long pointy ears, sharp teeth and eyes with no iris or pupils. The crown he saw initially was now made out of thick horns on his head, while the big gem it initially had was coming out of his chest, even glowing slightly in a beating heart rhythm. His clothes were replaced by a skintight suit, having an opening at the chest area to show the said gem, with big and sleek heels and a very intricate armour-like corset as a sort of belt.

Naturally, Riddle's absolutely horrified. But he felt powerful. He felt invincible, like he could make the world bow down to him by a mere snap of a finger. And his body felt light, comfortable, but his mind was screaming at him that it was wrong. He just became a much worse creature than he could've ever imagined.

And Floyd finally clears it out for him: He wasn't sealed by just random chance. There is an organisation tasked with hunting and eradicating creatures of his kind. Initially, Floyd fled from the sea along his brother and other mers, under Azul's guidance. The latter said that their abyss crown found a new vessel for its godly dark power, so they should follow it and serve their new leader, in exchange for protection. Azul made a decoy crown that he holds onto, while Floyd received the real deal, turned into a pendant. Unfortunately, the said organisation made traps for magic creatures, out of surveillance systems. And when Floyd was trying to follow a lead of the pendant, he got trapped inside. He didn't think Riddle would be chosen. Nor did he think that he would swallow it instead of just putting it on his head like every ruler previously did.

Riddle, worried, asks what happens now that he swallowed it. Like... It's apart of him. The gem is literally his heart now. Floyd is just as clueless as him, but all he knows is that he and all the other magical creatures surely felt the awakening. So he has to serve Riddle in exchange for protection. That was how things were supposed to go.

Riddle tho, insists that he doesn't want Floyd to serve him. In fact, he didn't want any of this. He wants to be a normal human, living a quiet life. But now, he's stuck as this darkness elderich diety! Like there has to be some way to hide it at least.

Thankfully, it was. Floyd did show Riddle that night how he hid his monster nature from Crowley and the public when he works as a guard. And Riddle learns how to appear fully human for the night.

The next day, Riddle realises just what that craving to eat was all about.

He had to give a few tests today and every time, he seemed to feed off students's fear and dread. Or any emotion for the matter. Those made him feel full and even skip lunch for the matter. But nothing satisfied more the craving than Floyd. And it wasn't any negative emotion from him, rather the effort and love he put in helping his beloved goldfishie adapt, was what satisfied Riddle beyond words. Floyd did know that previous rulers did feed on their subjects's emotional energy, but he really didn't expect Riddle to like his emotions as a superior meal than the others.

Still, things couldn't be peaceful for once.

Because on one night, someone actually tries to sneak into the school, while Riddle was trying to get used to his new body, mostly by walking across the halls with Floyd by his side.

That someone were the first years form Riddle's class. And when they both make the corner and come face to face, it's a screaming match. :'3

The first years, naturally go 'Oh shit! A monster!', while Riddle goes 'Oh Shit! Those are my students!'. Floyd just finds this thing hilarious. Still, out of the group, Deuce is the one who bows down immediately, apologising for not stopping these 'poor mind humans' from disturbing 'you majesty'.

It's revealed 2 things:

1. Deuce is a winged night creature who did figure out that Riddle was his ruler now.

2. The boring ass logics teacher is now a darkness deity. :'3

Riddle was feeling so screwed, so he made these mfs swear they won't say a thing about this to anyone. And the group agreed out of natural fear of getting a much worse fate if they don't comply. :'3

It was also only fair for Jack and Sebek to come forth and admit that they were also apart of the supranatural side. Sebek was a half Fae, whole Jack was a were-wolf.

Only Ace and Epel are dumb hoomans. :'3

But! The first years come in handy as extra hands to help break the seal. So Floyd was free! Yay! :D

Because he had nowhere else to go, Riddle takes Floyd at his house to live for now while he had no job to tend to. This also made them hang out in weekends now. :3

Now that he was free, Floyd's new objective was to find his initial colony. And ofc, he insisted that Riddle has to come with him. If it wasn't for the recent changes, Riddle would've still refused him, but now he will certainly be on the watchlist of this organisation that hunts the supranatural. And he is expected to be some all powerful wise leader.

He felt like a clueless kid again, Which is one thing Riddle hates.

So, much to Floyd's surprise, the redhead tries to hit the books. He's training and meditating a lot, all in hopes of understanding the powers he just acquired. It's not easy, but so it's Riddle's pettiness. He did accidentally kill some of his plants in pretty brutal ways, but alas, he learned to heal them back somewhat. :'3

Once Floyd does get ahold of Azul and by extension the rest of the people under his lead, the 2 have to set out to go after him. Riddle is very hesitant about it, since he never had to leave out of town until now. Yes, he went to college, but that was it.

And his planned leave doesn't fly unnoticed.

Trey is pretty worried when he hears that Riddle plans a leave for a few good days(since the place Azul was at wasn't actually far). So he does ask the redhead if something happened. Indeed, something did happen, but Riddle didn't really know if he should tell his friend or not, so he opted to simply avoid Trey, lest he won't have a confrontation.

Crowley is not very happy that these 2 got to leave at the same time, still, he reassigns Trey back on the Nightshift duty, since he was there at least once. That's the perfect excuse for Riddle to 'show Trey around' since 'a few things changed since last time'.

Trey almost has a heart attack upon the news being told to him... That's for sure. :'3

This time around, Riddle does explain to the latter that the first years might get in from time to time, mostly to help around. Just be nice to them and it's all good. For now Floyd was at home, resting a bit, so Riddle could take his place as the Nightshift guide.

As for Trey... Sure he was horrified at first, but once the initial shock went away, he was simply just worried. Worried for his buddy's safety. He doesn't doubt that Riddle is a smart individual, but this is a situation in which anyone could crack under pressure. He's worried about what would happen if Riddle did break under the pressure too, especially since he's both a powerful creature and on the watchlist of an organisation tasked to kill his kind.

Still Trey has no other option than to say goodbye to his friend and tend to the Nightshift duty in a somewhat peace. Or whatever you call it when 5 teens with mischievous tendencies are breaking into the school to bother you. :'3

So Riddle and Floyd go on with their little road. It was oddly quiet and that only helped make the redhead's nerves stretch more.

But they do find a small restaurant, run by none other than Azul!

Upon seeing Floyd, Azul's hugging the latter, glad that he's alive and well. But after the whole situation gets explained to him, he's absolutely livid. Of course, he firstly pays his respects to Riddle, who assures him that there's no need for honorifics, then he shows the 2 what he's been up as of late.

See, Azul worked to establish his restaurant and have the others of their kind work here or at another branch he has. He met Idia and Malleus, both who are helping the unemployed creatures by taking them under their own organisations: Idia with STIX and Malleus to work in his Kingdom away from the human reach.

Unfortunately Jade, Floyd's brother, was caught by the organisation when they tried to flee to another place one time. Azul felt horrible delivering the news to Floyd, but there was still a tiny bit of hope there. Jade could still be alive for all they knew.

Floyd was done and over with this organisation bullshit. Now that they had their 'leader', they could finally strike back against those mfs that shooed them from their homes for so long. By now Riddle made peace with the fact that he'll have to get rid of that organisation if he ever wanted a chance to return to a somewhat peaceful life. And he did make his wish clear to Azul: he wants that organisation gone so that, after it, Riddle could live a peaceful life as a teacher. He never wanted any of this, but that doesn't mean he won't get involved in attempting to fix this injustice.

so the night creatures start to gather up. Only a few stood behind with the children, while the others were getting ready for war. They heard their 'leader''s wish and they were more than happy with it. In fact they were ecstatic about getting back at the thing that terrorised them for generations.

This is also when we meet Malleus and Idia. Malleus was kind enough to lend some of his Fae troupes, since this organisation also targeted his kind, while Idia provided inside information and revealed the fact that hostages are indeed taken, so there was a fair chance Jade was there too.

So the big battle does commence at the main headquarters of the organisation. There was absolute bloodshed there. Yet Riddle simply followed after Floyd, using his own learned spells from time to time to protect those on their side or push out of their way the enemies.

Fortunately, Jade was alive.

Unfortunately that was also a trap.

The second Floyd tried to reach his brother, he got blocked in the tank with Jade, both unable to leave. Riddle wanted to release both of them, but he gets stopped midway by someone.

And that someone was his own mother.

See... She was a doctor... Giving credit where's due... But Mrs Weinachts (since Riddle changed his name after getting disowned) also worked for the organisation, by analysing the biology of the said creatures. Jade was supposed to be dissected, but when he showed a weird behaviour (when Riddle swallowed the gem), it was figured that he has to be kept alive and be studied upon patterns. And sure enough, it predicted this attack.

Now she can't recognise Riddle at all, due to him being in his creature form, but the latter sure knows who she is and the shock is too much for him. He realises that, most certainly, if he didn't follow his own desires, he would've ended up here. Now everyone was fighting for their life and freedom here. His dear Floyd was captured and his own mother, who disowned him and haunts him with his 'failures' threatened to kill the 2 eel mers if Riddle doesn't throw in the towel.

Trey's fears were good founded, because they did happen. Riddle did crack under all the pressure, which ended up with the whole place crumbling down under his unattended power. And naturally, this ends with the supranatural beings winning. They cheer together and celebrate.

But Floyd finds Riddle in a sort of trance, looking at his hands smeared with some blood as he was processing the events that just happened. When he does realise it, he breaks down crying that he killed his own mother. Sure, she abandoned him once adulthood came, but still she was his mother. And he killed her!

And the worst part about it was that it felt good. It felt good to feed on her desperation for survival. Riddle was ashamed of it, of the monster he became. He just wants back home, back to his peaceful and quiet life.

And his wish gets fulfilled.

The rest of the creatures already established proper lives in hiding. Sure, some returned to solitarity in far to reach lands, while others integrated better amongst the humans. Riddle did make it clear that, unless it's a situation similar to how the organisation they just defeated, he won't step up to lead them. They don't need a leader to follow mindlessly around, when they could have their own lives how they want.

So, in the end, we do return to the same old routine Riddle used to have. But now he lives together with Floyd and still comes in terms with every new discovery about his powers.

And that would be for the main plot :D

I was thinking that after this big one, if it were to follow, it would be some small adventures where we meet the rest of the twst Bois and see what they are up to.

For example: Kalim is a museum owner and Jamil is a Naga sorcerer that was trapped in stone for many years, thus he wasn't aware of the changes in society and everything. That was to be discovered on a field trip to the said museum and all that. :v

So for now... I guess I'll leave the rest to y'all to theorise and ask what do you think about the rest of the Bois. For some I really have 0 idea what they could be, so suggestions are welcomed :3

Until next time! Buh bye! :D

Exploration (pt2)

Savanaclaw

Personally I wasn't expecting much in Savanaclaw. Seeing that this was made and renovated in the 90’s there shouldn't be any ghosts. I expect at least 1. After shutting the door behind me I heard someone running behind me. I whipped my head around and saw nothing. I just got here. I sighed away the nerves while I looked down at grim who began to explore. Grim looks lax so maybe the ghost are chill as well. I walked around the Savanclaw’s first floor and the magic crystal detected nothing. Then I heard grim hissing. My necklace vibrated like crazy when i keep walking to the lounge. When i arrived, i see a guy picking grim up by the scuffle while glaring at him. What’s so weird is that he has lion ears and a tail other then that he just had some bell bottoms and a black tank top showing off his cool looking lion tattoo on his bicep. As i was gawking at this man i felt something slip out my pockets. When I turned around I saw a person who was mostly visible taking that cutter box I found on that gamboling table. He looks up at me and laughs as he waves the box before running off. I turned back to grim who dropped out of his clutches at this point. Seeing he’s ok I began chasing after the ghost. Everytime he turns a corner he ends up behind me.the necklace doesn't help as it vibrates every few seconds and by the time it vibrates he’s already gone. I followed him out back where the gardens were. I was out of energy and stamina when i enter the gardens so I just flopped. I really wasen’t expecting a workout just to find a few ghosts. I panted and wheezed so I went to a bench to rest for a little while. While I catch my breath the necklace vibrates. I looked next to me to see that ghost’s smirky face. He drops the box cutter on my stomach “you lasted longer than expected” he spoke which made my eyes widen. I shot up and looked at him as he laughed at me. Before I could even asked any questions ,or get a better description than his hyena-like features,he vanished with a blink of a eye. I put the cutter in my pocket. When I put the cutter away I spotted a lock pick kit on the floor. It looked old and worn down but there was still a legible name on the tag. Ruggie bucchi. Maybe that was that hyena fellow that took my box. I’m still a bit tired so I just jotted this down so I wouldn't forget. After that break I head back inside just to hear clanking. I returned to the lounge and grim was laying on the couch so I assumed he was just tired as well. The clanking continued as I walked up the stairs. The necklace vibrated but in much slower interables. It was coming from the gym area so I headed over there. The gym was empty aside from a few weights scattered around different spots. I didn't know ghost needed a workout routine. When I looked over by the benches I spotted a somewhat visible person. He had the ears and tail like a wolf but looked like the bar was trying to to pass through him. Dude looked like he does some sort of street fighting or was he a boxer or a runner. He vanished as soon as he put up the weighted bar which gave me an opportunity to look at his set up. Bro’s lifting more weights than me. He must've been pretty strong. As I walked around I kicked something. A water bottle. It was one of those bottles that already has your name on it by the looks of it. It just says Jack. Then the treadmill started running on it’s own. I assumed Jack was that wolf looking guy so I placed the bottle on the treadmill and left. I wrote down my findings and began to head downstairs. As I reached the bottom steps I spotted legs hiked up on the couch. I looped around the couch to see that same guy sleeping. He had a scar over his eyes which makes me wonder if he had a fight when he was alive. “You’ve got a camera. Take a picture it’ll last longer” He spoke which surprised me a little. He opened one of his eyes  “well what are you standing here for. Don’t you have any respect for privacy” he said “well I just want to ask for a name” i asked but he gets up and stairs me down “leona kingscholar. Happy now herbivore? Now you have something to write in that little journal of yours” he grumbles “now, scram. I’m not in the mood to be bothered by your living presents” leona said as he walked off towards the back gardens. When I looked around the corner he was gone. I huffed slightly. He was rude. Well atleast i got his name. I sighed and looked back at grim who was waking up. I guess we’ll just move on...

Savannaclaw

Usurper of the Wilds and the Lion Den

Intro | Rose Maze | Witch’s Lake-house | Desert Manor | Poison Palace | Death’s Mansion | Dragon’s Castle

This chapter isn’t as similar to its incarnation of the original version. Instead of Leon’a being upset about a sports game, he’s upset about serving this higher up that had informed them that they need Yuu, whether they were dead or alive, the bbeg (Crowley) didn’t care.

After defeating (Killing or Saving) Riddle, and either steal or obtain his charm, Yuu runs to this slight hole in the wall of this fortress looking castle that leads underground to this den-like cave. Yuu runs into thinking they were safe from beastman scouts that had spotted them earlier. That’s when they run into Jack, the newest edition to the pride of Beastman. He noticed them immediately and began to chase them. Yuu had to use a different method to escape from Jack and other future “stalkers”. After all, Beastman have far more superior senses than humans. An instant game over if Jack caught them.

Anyway, They escape and make it to the surface of the “den”. This is were a cutscene will play out to reveal Leona and Ruggie speaking about some sort of plan to steal the “prisoner” from the Rose Maze before the sun rose up again, not realizing that Yuu had already escaped and freed the Heartslaybul gang from their torment.

It follows with Jack rushing in and confusing Leona and Ruggie, as he explains that Yuu, and a strange cat monster has arrived in the den. Ruggie is shocked and relieved that they don’t have to bother with the Rose Maze, while Leona is amused that Yuu manage to survive this long into the Lion’s Den so he retires to his room and Task Ruggie and Jack as well as the entirety of the Den to search and bring Yuu to him…alive.

Yuu’s like “fuck this” and tries to escape the Lion’s Den, but obviously that doesn’t work as they run into Ruggie, who immediately tries to capture them, and initiates a mini boss fight. Unlike Rose Maze which was more stealth base than Battle or puzzle base, Lion’s Den is more battle base, than puzzle or stealth.

Yuu wins and has the options to either kill or spare, each has a consequence that leads towards the end, anyway, Yuu actually confronts Leona in his study, while being chase, this starts a cutscene of Yuu threatening to kill Leona which makes him laugh, and that he’d rather team up and fight against the BBEG but he needs their power Yuu has the power of the great seven, Yuu refuses as they don’t know about the power, which causes a fight. Yuu obviously wins this fight and the option comes up again (Kill or Spare). Whatever option Yuu chooses doesn’t effect how they obtain Leona’s charm (His Choker)

Super Multiverse Guardians AU continued

Remember this? Well, I had a few more ideas.

Meta-Spider At first it seemed like a standard High School AU (albeit with all the nonhuman characters still being nonhuman because I can)... until Tari got bit by a radioactive spider, which gives her superpowers and activates Clench (yes she's still a cyborg with mysterious origins. again because I can). She was taken in by Goombario's family when she appeared under mysterious circumstances with no memory, and Goompa unfortunately got Uncle Ben'd. She's been Meta-Spider for a little over a year by the time she gets recruited for the Guardians Crew.

Princess Melony A Canon Marioverse post-series AU where she's Mario and Peach's daughter. She was born with green hair, red eyes and unusual powers because Peach got a death curse placed on her by one of the Kingdom's enemies while she was pregnant (not Bowser obviously, he wouldn't do that to her), everybody was scrambling to find a cure before it was too late, and the magical artifact that finally worked (found by Luigi. It quite literally cost him an eye and a leg to get, but he doesn't regret it. It's family, you do what you gotta do) had side-effects. Yes this is based on the Tangled prologue just without the kidnapping, deal with it.

Zero Hour Meggy Timeline where Ax0l succeeded at converting Mario into his Avatar and creating a new world. The new world is stable and functional thanks to the power of Inkweaver augmenting Niles and SMG0's Guardian powers (and compensating for Niles' instability), but it's not at all the perfect world that Niles wanted no matter how many changes he makes(since perfection doesn't exist, there's three extremely conflicting minds working on the same project (even if 0 and Axol don't have nearly as much say in things as Niles they still have some influence over the Ax0l fusion), and there's no way to bring Fred back or truly replace him with Mario). Meggy's one of the very few people who both survived the old world's destruction and retained her original identity in the new world, and she's made it her mission to find anyone else who's still themselves, save Mario and Axol if that's even possible at this point, destroy Zer0, and either restore the old world or just free the new one. Also she lost her headgear and found Mario's hat at some point so that's the visual cue for which Meggy she is.

Part 3 /??

[stuck-in-the-ghost-zone]

HIII DUDE good afternoon how r u how's the tokyo ghoul rewatch going!! i would. Love 2 hear ur ghostkicks and/or tg thoughts literally at any given time. taking ur joke tags absolutely dead serious because im trying 2 figure out How To Write Them currebtly & we're doin a bit of wrangling in the google doc 😭.

u know i have the brainrot so so so badly because im on episode 3 of tg and all i can think is "i can make a pd au out of this" so im feeling rlly normal abt it basically. im blaming it on unravel.

ANYWAY. ANYWAY. ANYWAY. YEAH. HI. GHOSTKICKS. they are soooooo. tired depressed introvert gets adopted by a loud bubbly extrovert trope. at least on the surface. like how they behave at school in season 1. thinkin abt jimmy going "what is UP with bro behind u" and william just ominously lurking there. and how dakota defends him later !!!!!!!! idk how much of this youve gotten to yet bc i dont remember when it actually comes up in canon bc its such an ingrained part of his character but dakota is soooooo. guard dog coded. this hits especially hard in the "what if pd were villains" oneshot but its sooooo prevalent in canon too.

they both hold each other in the highest respect. william sees dakota as the prime (ha) example of what a hero should be. hes brave hes kind he does his best to protect everyone no matter what. hes all the things that william Isnt. BUT !!!! dakota also looks up to him !!! hes so smart hes good at problem solving hes so curious about everything and asking questions and poking his nose into things that nobody else would even consider. dakota knows hes not smart so he automatically looks to william whenever he needs a plan or someone to tell him what to do when he feels lost. they complement each other and they dont even !!!!! know it !!!!!!!

also regarding williams powers. fuck dude. season 1 he was so fucking scared of himself and ashamed of the things he could do . he hid every time he had to use wisp form !!! but dakota always thought it was so cool and was not QUIET about it. boy went fucking STAR EYES the first time he saw wisp form !!!!!! i will never stop thinking abt the first rolled for season 2 where charlie goes "if dakota hadnt left, he probably wouldve been able to convince william to keep using his powers and not to completely disregard their existence like he has been" and . considering what william is like in season 2... god this wouldve been a COMPLETELY different fucking campaign. theyre so. incredibly soulmates to me. theyre so important to each other theyd do anything for each other. i cant say too much more without accidentally giving you spoilers bc i WILL keep talking and not be able to shut up but GOD fuck ghostkicks enjoyers eat so well in the latter half of s2. moirails. 2 me !!!!!!!
