I dare you to say I'm wrong.

The way Riddle’s mental health gets treated in comparison to the other character’s mental health is really annoying sometimes.

Here’s the thing, Riddle apologises for lashing out REGULARLY. Most times when he catches himself becoming unreasonable, he stops, apologises, and makes a consistent effort to change for the better.

I’ve also seen people (mostly on tt) claim that he’s not understanding of other people’s struggles which is the opposite of the truth. He’s incredibly accommodating. He helps Cater study in a way he thinks will help most, taking possibly hours of his own time, showing understanding to his implied ADHD. He gives Deuce his own clear notes and help book on maths -zero questions asked- showing understanding to his implied dyscalculia and dyslexia. On the same topic, Riddle is very heavily implied to struggle with low-empathy, meaning he does in fact find it hard to put himself in other peoples shoes. (Idia literally calls him ‘Mr Zero EQ’ [en] or The man who can’t empathise with anyone [jp] as an insult during the GloMas event). Riddle was also one of, if not the most apologetic about his overblot.

Another thing to point out is that Riddle isn’t enforcing these rules for fun? He follows those ridiculous rules compulsively. He worries that if he’s not following these rules constantly, something bad will happen to him. (Which, in his experience, is correct.) Do people even realise how hard ignoring compulsions are? He also is commonly headcanoned as autistic. A few common symptoms of autism is to be very justice oriented and to follow rules to the t. This (shockingly) is inconvenient and causes a lot of struggle in the persons life.

Of course, none of these struggles are cute or fun, so nobody wants to acknowledge it. /s

Malleus, Riddle: Party of One No Longer

To me, the most interesting part of Malleus’s birthday interview was when he marveled over the miracle that is online shopping 😂

Imagine this…

Surviving alone on a deserted island was no challenge for him. In his eyes, every dorm was a kingdom waiting to be conquered. A young mage of frightening skill and strength, feared by all.

He was Malleus Draconia.

Riddle warily peered at his upperclassman from the top of his clipboard. Malleus had technically provided answers to each and every question, but… “… Were those truly adequate responses for the interview?”

The fairy, who loomed over Riddle’s tiny frame, frowned. “I believe I did as I was asked. Do you wish to redo it?”

“No,” Riddle said quickly. The last thing he wanted was to upset Malleus–he hadn’t come for a battle, but to fulfill a duty. “No, I suppose not. Please, do carry on as you were.”

Malleus held his gaze for perhaps a second or two too long. The corner of his mouth tugged up into a smirk. “You have no need to be quite so uptight, Rosehearts. This is a party, a celebration. Be at ease. I insist that you eat, drink, and be merry–”

He lifted a hand, and at once, a vacant chair from a nearby table rocketed to him. It slammed into Riddle’s back at an angle, causing him to lose his footing, drop his clipboard, and fall into the seat. With its new captive in tow, the chair magically maneuvered itself to a sweets-laden display.

Riddle blinked.

“–for you are my guest,” Malleus finished, reappearing at his side.

“This…” Riddle hesitated, choosing his every word with the utmost caution. “This is very generous of you. Such a sumptuous spread is like something out of a child’s fantasy.”

“Oh? Was I incorrect to assume that you would enjoy such a thing?”

“Wh-What…!!” Riddle’s face flared red. “Are you calling me a child?!”

“Fufu. I meant nothing of it.” Malleus leaned against his chair, the emeralds of his eyes half-lidded. “There is a bit of childishness in all of us. A piece of innocence we wish to cling to, no matter how dark and depraved the world may be to us.

“We hold responsibilities that we must tend to. People who look to us for guidance. The image of a strong, capable leader to maintain. Those few precious moments when we are allowed to set our inner child free… Is it so wrong to relish in them?”

“Malleus-senpai…”

He’s addressing me, but it sounds as though he is just as much speaking to himself.

Something in Riddle’s chest twinged when his eyes met his upperclassman’s. There was a darkness that had emerged from the green of his irises, something familiar and raw and melancholy. The same look that Riddle had worn all throughout his own childhood, on the inside looking out.

Loneliness.

“I think I understand how you feel,” Riddle said at last. “Time can steal away from us before we even realize it… but there is no rule prohibiting us from enjoying ourselves while we still can.”

“You catch on quickly.” The fairy prince chuckled, flicking his wrist.

Silverware danced, spoons and forks and knives gliding through the air. Blades sunk into cakes, tarts, and pies, cutting up slices and sliding them onto clean plates. The single servings of dessert closed in on Riddle, presenting themselves in a ring like potential suitors at a grand ball, each vying for his attention.

“Take your pick,” Malleus crooned, waving a hand over the options.

Riddle stared at him quizzically. “You are the birthday boy. It would be rather impudent of me to indulge myself at this celebration without your grace.”

“I have come to terms with the fact that I am not welcome at festivities,” Malleus replied bluntly. “I have said as much for my interview, yes? I am used to being by my lonesome. You have no need to take pity on me. Or does tradition obligate you to do so?”

“… I do not claim to know what goes through your head, but know this: it is not out of obligation or pity that I extend this offer to you.” Riddle stubbornly shook his head. “You are an individual worthy of great admiration. An excellent student, mage, and leader… I could ask for no better dining companion.

“Malleus-senpai.” Riddle paused to clear his throat. “Would you do me the honor of having a slice of cake with me? Not as a dorm leader, not as classmates, but as equals. As the children that we are, liberated from our everyday duties and demands.”

“Rosehearts…” The surprise on his face soon gave way to his usual composed attitude. “I would be delighted.”

“Just a moment.” Riddle stood from his seat, holding up a hand to stop Malleus from claiming the chair beside him. “There still remains the matter of the gift of good fortune.”

“Ah, of course. I’ve been looking forward to it all year.”

“Erm, yes.” The redhead quirked an eyebrow. “You’ve been eagerly anticipating this?”

“Indeed. It is not often when I am able to experience events such as this. Sebek would sooner offer to take a pie in my place than allow for my clothes to be sullied.”

“That… certainly sounds like Sebek.” Riddle sighed as he peeled off his gloves, carefully tucking them into a blazer pocket. “Right, then. We’d best get to it, lest he come charging over to block the hit.”

“Please, allow me.” Another wave of Malleus’s hand, and a whipped cream pie floated over and placed itself in his interviewer’s grasp.

“Thank you.” Once again, Riddle cleared his throat. “Malleus-senpai, I wish you a very happy birthday!!”

PLAPP!

Riddle didn’t throw the pie with much vigor–it landed squarely on the birthday boy’s right pectoral, the impact spraying globs of whipped cream over his neck, his face, and his hair. Malleus appeared dazed. Eyes wide as he slowly processed what had just occurred.

And, for one terrible, awful, horrifying moment, Riddle feared that his life would be cut short in a flash of blinding draconic rage.

But then he saw the smile.

A smile that reminded him of the fresh red roses in the Heartslabyul gardens. Set upon lips as full and ripe as the plush petals of a flower, lovely like droplets of dew at daybreak, muting the thorns and harsh angles of his face. Wholehearted and toothy, a smile spun from dreams and tender bedtime stories.

This was Malleus Draconia.
