Ooc note;

I am definitely here but just wanted to let everyone on my feed know replies might be a little late, especially if you sent me an ask.

I did unfortunately break my ankle and it's very difficult to do much of anything, not to mention the doctor and my body both are consistently pressing me to sleep. Dm's and discord is still open to mutuals though, there will just be very limited frontal activity.

I’ve talked about this with other people before, BUT plot that I absolutely love and would be MORE than willing to discuss with other muses; the concept of the mirror in Ramshackle (the one Mickey typically comes through) actually being Yuu’s way home. And though she may feel a certain way about leaving, she knows she has to return back home to her world where she truly belongs, BUT I like the idea of another muse coming by and breaking/destroying the mirror to keep that from happening because how dare she think she can just leave. 

That’s some tastiness I crave~

[ramshacklestar]

It felt strange at first, talking to one of the students from RSA as though they were friends, but that school was significantly different from NRC from what Yuu had been able to figure out on her own and the students were also much more approachable in comparison to those at Night Raven. Though the princely attitude they had did border on annoying every now and then, Neige had been one of the few RSA students Yuu could actually stand to be around; his presence reminding her much of an older sibling figure back home.   

“Holiday traditions…” Yuu mumbled, jumbling her thoughts around in her head. To be honest, there wasn’t really such a thing in the orphanage she’d grown up in, and Christmas day itself was relatively lack luster as well. “I don’t know if you could call it a tradition really, but where I grew up the nights leading up to Christmas me and my uh, siblings, would be told some old Christmas stories.” It wasn’t quite what they were granted, but she hadn’t even let Ace or Deuce know the truth about her life back home so chances of her letting anyone else know were slim. The stories likewise did get repetitive after awhile but the younger children always seemed to enjoy those moments so Yuu tended to just share in their excitement.

A slight laugh came from the girl at Neige’s traditions however, how very like a princely type of guy. “Sorry, that was rude, it’s noble what you’re doing I think I’ve just become too adjusted to the type of persona that’s common around those from Night Raven.” Though the concept of caroling left Yuu feeling self-conscious about her voice; the cooking side of things did pique her interest. “What sorts of things are you learning to cook though? I’m certainly no master chef myself but I would like to think I know my way around a kitchen at least.”

“Do you have any particular Holiday traditions that you’re fond of??” Neige was very delighted to meet up with Yuu again. Ever since formally meeting her a few months ago, he’s thought about  her here and there and just was so curious about her presence. Chenya shared a few things but nothing much. “I find it delighterful to go caroling around town and collect donations from those that can share. But I’ve also been getting into cooking in the past couple of years.” || [ HOLIDAY CALL ] || @ramshacklestar

A sigh quickly followed at Epel’s question, a brief moment of Yuu’s exhaustion being visible to him and other onlookers alike. It wasn’t as though Yuu hadn’t appreciated being invited to every party the Scarbia housewarden had, but he had so many that it was getting difficult to keep up with her own personal duties as a student and likewise those dropped on her by Crowley or the other professors who often reminded her as the school’s prefect this was simply part of the agreement on letting Grim and herself attend as students. It had even gotten so bad at a few points that Yuu had literally begged Jamil to try and reason with Kalim that she didn’t simply have all the time in the world, being as Kalim didn’t ever really listen to her when she said something. Of course, as for how long that would work too was anyone’s guess as Kalim tended to just do whatever he wanted regardless of Jamil’s words as well. 

“He’s rather difficult to hide from, Heartslabyul is typically the first place Kalim will go when I’m not in Ramshackle.” And unfortunately, if she wasn’t at Ramshackle, Heartslabyul was a pretty good guess as to where she actually was. “But then there’s that dorms unbirthday parties that I get text bombed with until I eventually show up so maybe it really isn’t all that good a place to hide.” Or maybe Yuu just needed to learn to say no to people once in a while, but the chances of that ever happening were relatively slim. Even now she had felt overwhelming guilt at refusing Epel’s request, and though she was expected to stay at the school the truth of the matter was the fairies had figured out how to get wood prior to her enrollment so they could surely figure it out now as well. 

Fact was, that everyone at this school had been a little too much to some extent, and she worried for the day she would finally snap. Granted she wouldn’t be able to do much damage being magicless and all, but how inconvenient would it be for others if she just blew up was a thought commonly resting in the back of her mind. 

“The fairies have grown kind of accustomed to me maybe they’d even let us wander into the woods without causing too much of a fuss.” They certainly weren’t on friendly terms, but her presence was at least tolerated. “But yeah we’ll definitely get something fun thought up, in the meantime though enjoy your trip, and please don’t worry about me. The guys from Octavinelle will be around if I need something.” Granted it would come at a cost, but that’s just them.

while there was a hint of seriousness behind his request, most of it was simple teasing. they all knew grim and they liked and hated him for who he is - though, hate was a strong word epel wouldn't use when addressing grim. he could be annoying for someone so small but that's what friends are. and while he definitely was the louder one of the duo of grim and yuu, both were greatly appreciated for who they are. there was no yuu without grim and no grim without yuu.

"i assume if his stomach was a little bigger he would totally do just that." epel replied with a laugh. the little fellow definitely was like a black hole. it made him wonder just how much yuu had to work around him to afford it all and how much would be left for her at the end of the day. "he does throw big parties, huh?" he had heard about it from classmates and other students - kalim's parties were always filled with music, dance and lots of fun and food. it must be nice to be this rich, though epel couldn't say he would want to trade with the other. he wasn't such an extrovert like the other. and yet, blue eyes widened when hearing about grim barely putting a dent into the food they served there. "isn't that a bit too much food then?"

he couldn't help feeling a little bad for yuu. she always had to smooth out whatever mess others created. it seemed like she had a secret talent of always being at the wrong place, at the wrong time. but he's sure no one would ever put the blame on her if she couldn't fix it all. she was a student like everyone else. "i guess, it is." he finally commented a little quieter but he quickly shook it off. "i can't speak for everyone but we freshmen are thrilled to have you around!"

his lips curled into a wide smile upon yuu's response. epel couldn't hide the excitement in his voice as he spoke again. "that's a plan then!" he cheered, as an small idea came to mind. "make sure you think of something during the holidays! i'll make sure to come up with something too." it was a promise, one he would definitely keep. and once they had return to the usual, boring and serious school life they could share ideas of their plans.

[ramshacklestar]

“So magic does seem to have some negative qualities after all.” Yuu spoke amid a chuckle, it wasn’t exactly nice poking fun in such a way, but being as she was completely without any form of magic she had to live as no more than an ordinary human which came with it’s fair share of complications especially in the school. “I wonder if there’s some kind of get around on Riddle’s magic too though, I mean it took a minute but we were able to figure out how to get around Azul’s spell.” Granted it was just an idea, and the fact it worked was a fluke at best that put not only her friends stuck under the spell but Leona alike at risk but thinking about that caused a shiver to climb up her spine so she’d rather not. 

“I shouldn’t say that too loud though, it’d be my luck Riddle would find out somehow and I’d get the inquisition of a lifetime, if not potentially get a ban from entering Heartslabyul for a while.” Granted there were worse punishments, but it’d make her sad not to be able to see Deuce, Ace or any of the others. “You guys would need me too much so I guess it’s better to remain tight lipped.” She winked at Deuce, playfully messing with him in a way she wouldn’t anyone else, after all he and Ace had become quite important to her. 

“You know I may not fully know why it is you’re so determined to be seen as a top scholar, but personally I find you quite the rolemodel already. A determination like yours is hard to come by and if anyone makes fun of you for it, well, that’s a real shame on their part.” There was no real way of getting rid of the school’s bullies though, especially when you considered the nature of those at this school. “You should really expect that from him, makes it easier to deal with his antics if you have a pretty good idea about what’s coming.” Frankly she was surprised Deuce hadn’t by now, weren’t they roommates on top of being dormmates? “But if it would make you feel better I can probably convince Grim to blow a little fire puff at him, not that I think such a thing would really resolve the problem, but at least it might be a small form of revenge.”  

Well if her question didn't come up now, it would've certainly made itself known later at some point... He looked at his friend, a couple of blinks and looked puzzled by the question. Wasn't she also wearing the collar when Riddle was starting to overblot? Perhaps she barely had the time to register its weight due to the events following that day. However, Deuce does remember what it did feel like having it on.

"Well... the collar did feel like it had some kind of weight to it. It wasn't painful walking around with it on but it sure as heck made it unbearable to sleep with." He paused to think upon it some more. "Now that I think about it... I dunno if it makes any sense but it felt more heavy when I tried to cast my magic? I suppose that would make sense seeing as it's supposed to block my magic anyways..."

Shaking his head, he lets out another sigh. "I only agreed to do this because I wanted to be a better role model I guess. Apparently this library needed to be reorganized a long time ago but no one wanted to do it." He then looked a little annoyed at what he's about to say next. "Ace convinced me to volunteer to do it too but now that I'm here, I'm pretty sure he was messing with me again..."

[ramshacklestar]

These were in the instances in which she had thought herself clever, surprising one of the housewardens of all people serving as a sort of stimulation for her as generally they were supposed to be the best of their dorm. Though tricking some was a rather complex task, especially when you considered a couple of them would be quick to retort with their temper or in at least one’s case flee from the scene like he was the one who committed the trickery in question. Then again, Idia always seemed to flee the scene, but that was hardly a concern right now as Yuu felt a chill crawl up her spine hand out reached towards the door handle completely freezing in place. 

She’d seen what was making the current shadows on the door before, and with his tone immediately knew she was in a certain degree of trouble. Not that it should have really been a surprise considering what she’d just done but still, with a slow movement her head turned towards Azul a forced laugh of ‘heh heh’ coming from her. 

“Just trying to be a good employee, can’t have any dissatisfied customers.” She cooed in some attempt to try and cute her way out of this, not that she’s really expected it to work. After all every act had consequences, especially when it involved trickery.

@ramshacklestar said:

A singular madol is placed in front of Azul; a tip from earlier in the afternoon. Yuu is silent putting both hands on either side of his face before bringing herself closer and kissing him point blank on the lips. Pulling back after a moment Yuu smiles affectionately.

"Well back to work then. Later Azul."

He blinks when she sets the madol on his desk, confused at first as to why she would bring it to his office when it's not the end of her shift. But when she touches his face, that's when the real mystification sets in as he lets his face be tipped up to look at her. The last thing he expects is her mouth on his, warm and firm and not shy at all.

She also tastes delicious right then, much to his befuddled delight. But all too soon Yuu lets go and is walking away, her greeting fair slapping him across the face as he stares after her with widened eyes.

That... that was...

"Yuu." He calls after her, already moving to stand as a shadow spreads out from around his feet to lay across the door. "Now, where do you think you're going, I wonder? Especially after that."

[ramshacklestar]

Hyena’s from what Yuu could recall were typically in zoo’s in her home world, and the notion of potentially having one as a pet would surely be scrutinized, but for now she left that thought in her mind unsure how Ruggie might feel about the concept that a part of him tended to live behind steel bars for the humans to gawk at. It was a wonder those from Savanaclaw didn’t question what her problem was the first time she’d met them, her instinct leading her to the same situation of simply staring despite the rudeness of it. Then again to be fair she had just thought most of them were in some weird kind of cosplay and had even gone as far as to ask Malleus himself what sort of cosplay he was supposed to be in before finally realizing this was just normal for twisted wonderland. “To my knowledge at least, we don’t collar hyenas back home either…if they’re not in the wild they’re usually, well, somewhere else.” She didn’t know why in that moment she was feeling guilty about it, it wasn’t as though Yuu was the one poaching various wild animals and sticking them in confinement. 

Shaking her head of the thought for now, lest she further offend Ruggie or another potential beastman lingering Yuu pondered back to the time she and Grim first became actual students of NRC. “Guess you have a point there, isn’t RSA like a super high end only a select few can get enrolled type of school?” It also didn’t seem like the students here would really fit into the motif brought on from the RSA students anyway; her interaction with those guys, though limited, telling her more than enough of what that school was about and how they ran things on their grounds. “I guess I could maybe see Kalim fitting in with those guys but the other two…” Yuu stifled a laugh and continued. “I don’t know that RSA would know what hit them with those two. Especially considering it seems as though they can’t even be in the same vicinity as each other without one causing a storm of some sort.” Again the question of why Malleus and Leona disliked each other so much rose to her mind, but figuring out why either of them acted or did what they did seemed beyond her. At least they hadn’t tried to literally blow each other apart, as far as she knew anyway. 

“You’re like a beastman Robin Hood, stealing from the wealthy to give to the poor.” Even if the poor in question he gave to usually only benefitted him, but that was just the way it was in this school. Her charity being seen more as a weakness in the eyes of many who had seemed to have it drilled into their head it was everyone for themselves. Which arguably wasn’t a bad thing either to an extent but not something Yuu figured she’d ever truly understand. “It’s safer just to pretend I never knew, saw or heard anything. I’ve been able to stay alive with that mentality in this place so far so I think I’ll just stick with it~.”

Celestial Identity

Your Result:

star

like stars, you are effervescent and indefinable. stars somehow feel simultaneously within your grasp but infinitely far. people devotedly pour all their hopes and dreams out to you, spill their secrets, and bare their souls for the unique, special joy of gaining your favor.

you are a special person to be around. being with you is like flying—weightless and exciting. you are sympathetic and can’t help trying to help everyone even when you’ve already got enough on your plate. you try to make everyone else’s dreams come true at the same time as yours. you are warm—not in an outwardly radiating way but at your very core. in your thoughts, and intentions, and desires.

like stars, you can be fickle, shifting according to the season and twinkling like you might wink out of existence at any moment. however, you make up for it in your extraordinary qualities—stars guide sailors to new lands, remind us to keep dreaming, and give us a reason to keep looking up.

you are a beautiful and extraordinary person. even if people don't quite understand you, they admire and appreciate you. you inspire them to keep dreaming. you sometimes miss what once was and have a hard time letting go. you find nostalgia simultaneously comforting and heartbreaking. yet you still manage to move forward. you also have a hard time seeing the value of your own innate brightness, yet still, think highly of yourself and what you have to offer the world. you somehow never manage to lose your spirit. you are the light that never goes out, against all the odds.

you are the essence of art, creation, and beauty. the lightness of laughter. the shaky peace following a good cry. you are simultaneously cold-tempered with a warm core. you are beautiful and beloved and faithfully enduring. remember to take care of yourself the same way you do others. don’t burn out on us, we need you around <3

On occasion it isn't at all uncommon for Yuu to wake up (from wherever she might be sleeping whether that be in Ramshackle, Mostro Lounge, etc) and completely forget where she is.

Her immediate reaction typically being her looking around her surroundings very obviously confused until she's conscious enough to fully remember where she is. A mumbled 'oh, right' tending to follow.

[ramshacklestar]

how would yuu react to someone calling her the full yuuna instead of prefect or just yuu???

The professors and Crowley refer to her as her full name (when Divus isn't calling her a pup anyway) so she might be a little confused, depending on who it is, why they would call her by her full name.

But ultimately Yuu is just glancing towards the person using her name offering a 'yeah?' or 'what?'

[ramshacklestar]

Yuuna things:

Those hoodies that have a pouch on the front for where you could stick your cat and carry them...just saying, Yuu would definitely get one of those and carry Grim around in it.

[ramshacklestar]

Out of character you is Idia but yuu is so not

Yuuna is not based off me.

A couple life experiences are similar but when she was made I made her with the intention of making her similar to Rapunzel from Tangled, just without the magic hair and not a complete copy (cause ew plagiarism) so a few tweaks as well.

Their color palette is also very similar, but not a complete copy 🪷

Side note: Yuu does still have a few Idia-ish tenancies though, mainly she's socially awkward sometimes and generally when first meeting her. Which is one of the very few similarities she shares with the mun.

[ramshacklestar]

Falling asleep and waking up in a gaming chair instead of on the bed...

Vibe.

I've said it once I'll say it again, occ me is Idia 😂

[ramshacklestar]

Sinday Asks are open! Ask my muse all the naughty things you want to know!

[ramshacklestar]

Let's go see some Gargoyles!

[ramshacklestar]

Just a little thing...

You'll know when it's that time during the month for Yuuna. How you might ask? Well she'll be holding onto Grim significantly more than she already does and just before it comes she is unusual levels for her extra emotional, sobbing over the fact that she has such wonderful friends and how cute certain habits they might have are.

She will also completely ignore or quickly change the subject when questioned about why she was acting so strange, once she has her wits about her again.
