[rosietrace]

Main Ship headcanons :DD

(Meaning the ones established in their profiles, not the oc x oc ones)

Edit: I forgot to add Claudette and Ambrosia, and I would like to apologize for that-

Eclair x Malory

Eclair braided his hair every morning

High school sweethearts. Eclair went to an all girls fairy academy while Malory went to RSA

When they graduated, Malory proposed to Eclair, who immediately said yes

They didn't have trouble financially due to their wealthy families

Before they got married Malory would call Eclair "sweetheart" or "my starlight"

When they became newlyweds he called her "My sun" or "My Apollonia"

When Eclair brought up the idea to make scepter hall, Malory was incredibly supportive and helped her in every way he could

He hid secrets from her, but she never meddled into his business and vice versa

No cheating. Nada. Absolutely NONE. These two are loyal and meant it when they said til death do us part

Were considering having kids until it was revealed to them that Eclair's incapable of having any

Having almost lost hope, Eclair wished upon a star in hopes that her wishing fairy friends would help give her the child she and her husband wanted

And in the end, what she got in return was a healthy baby girl... And the disappearance of her husband

Knowing that his health was deteriorating at the seams, Eclair was aware that he couldn't have gone far

She searched high and low within every nook and cranny, and found nothing but the possibility of her husband being dead

And now all she feels when gazing upon the dorm of winter...

.... Is heartache

Victoria x Malleus

Claudette x Ambrosia

'The sun and moon' of SHI

Claudette clings to her every time she's had a bad day

It makes Clark feel single and that brings a smile to Ambrosia's face

They didn't really know how to socialize with one another when they first met, so communication is very significant in their relationship

They almost never argue because of how well they communicate with one another

And even when they do argue? They comfort each other by holding hands, but not facing each other

It's kind of their own way to say 'I'm sorry'

Whenever one of them has to work overtime, they always bring a cup of their favorite drink alongside their favorite food

Claudette's is a matcha latte with honey-filled chocolates

While Ambrosia is a black coffee and mochi

Whoever made one of them cry will have hell rain all over them

No one's gonna make Claudette or Ambrosia cry without consequences-

Their dates are usually to some classy and aesthetically pleasing kind of café or restaurant

It's almost always Ambrosia treat, since she doesn't want Claudette to overspend on her

The only reason Claudette cried while watching mean girls is because Ambrosia didn't understand any of the references she made-

Back when their relationship just started, they wouldn't hear the end of it from Clark since he teased them relentlessly

To put it simply, their relationship and communication with one another is great

Pre-romance

So much bickering

It is practically endless and the amount of fancy words they use may

And sexual tension

Lots of sexual tension. It feels unnatural how much tension there is the minute they're both in the same room

I can imagine that they'd send each other letters, but they're the least romantic thing ever and it's just filled with unnecessarily petty comments as a way to insult each other

Vic might be the type to actually get her hands dirty if Malleus takes her death threats seriously, but considering her history with bloodshed, she'd rather not

Oddly synchronized whenever they have to work together. They can't explain why, but they work oddly well together when it comes to things like combat, dancing, singing, etc.

I'd say the best part of this stage of their dynamic is how much they respect each other

Malleus may hate Victoria, but he still considers her his equal and is willing to challenge her in ways most wouldn't be able to

And the same thing applies to Victoria, who is also willing to challenge Malleus in ways others aren't able to do

They hate each other, but they respect one another just enough to see the other as genuine threats

Post-romance

When Victoria's reading, Malleus often rests his head on her lap as she reads since he finds her voice soothing

Similar to Azure x Carol(@fumikomiyasaki) except they hated each other before this

They remain unnaturally synchronized, but it feels less like a competition to outdo the other and more of a harmonious approach of expressing the passion they share for one another

Malleus wears things that were made by Victoria. I don't make the decisions here, it is CANON-

He'll regularly offer to model for her design concepts if Mercury, Camilla and Zen aren't available

Lots of gift giving on Malleus's part. Given that he's technically a dragon, I'd make the claim that he'd spoil his beloved rotten

Victoria expresses her love differently through quality time

They could just be in a room completely silent, but they'd still be able to enjoy each other's company despite it

Frisk x Cater

Mutual pining. So much pining that it probably put Freyah to the brink of insanity at the idea that they'll take too long to confess

So being the good sister that she is, Freyah decided to help them by aggressively matchmaking them together

And while it did work out in the end, Freyah ended up creating a number of misunderstandings between the two ;-;

Cater has an entire album dedicated to Frisk and he always makes sure she looks breathtaking in every single one

Frisk is rather shy and due to the pressure she had from being an influencer in the past, Cater doesn't post much of their relationship for her sake even though he knew she was okay with it

Frisk is aware of Cater's disdain for sweets, and makes sure to take that into account when making him some snacks

She'll try and crack a few jokes, but then she'll slowly die of embarrassment when Cater starts to tease her for it

She usually stands behind Cater whenever they're together since she has a problem with socializing with others

{ Mentions of bullying }

Frisk has experienced bullying before, and Cater is quick to notice how she's very closed off when the subject is discussed in her presence

He won't confront her outright, but do his best to make her comfortable enough to tell him what happened to her

When Frisk admitted to him about her experiences, no one had seen Cater look so.... Angry

If her bullies were students in the school, Cater would offer to.... Do certain things to them on the internet

And by that I mean blackmail them about information he found after searching all over the net for any info on them

Obviously he ended up getting his suggestion politely declined, but Frisk knew that his intentions were for her sake

But other than that, communication between them is great and there aren't as many misunderstandings between them

Grey x Leona

Leona comes from a kingdom that inhabits incredibly powerful and respectable women, so its only natural that he'd respect Grey for her perseverance

He respects her, and she him, but things are awkward and full of almost unnecessary tension because of one thing

Their arranged marriage

It was an agreement made by their parents and Leona's brother, king Farena, and one that the two didn't particularly feel comfortable with

The times where they were told to always be seen together in events was the thing that ticked Grey off

When Grey began attending NRC, Leona knew it was inevitable for her to challenge him for the role of dorm head

They didn't interact much after the aftermath, given their already awkward situation with their engagement

They'd soon settle on a hobby they both share

Sleeping.

Leona practically sleeps regularly and Grey often gets tired after sparring, so they'd usually go to one another's room and sleep there

There's nothing suggestive about that outside of the fact that they both sleep in each other's rooms

Oftentimes they sleep separately, but Leona unintentionally rests his head on Grey's chest while they're both lying down, but she doesn't necessarily mind and just let's him

Leona comments that Grey's chest is a very convenient pillow

Sleeping ends with unintentional cuddling

They both wake up pretending they weren't so close in proximity 💀

If Grey's lucky, Leona might wake up and spar with her-

There isn't much to say outside of the fact that they just need to realize that the cuddling they do isn't platonic.

Nyx x Vil

(does not apply to the Villainess au interpretation of their relationship)

Nyx had always shown a keen interest in Vil, which set off her brothers a little because of their protective nature over her

But nonetheless, she managed to befriend Vil Schoenheit

At first they just had a couple brief conversations while they walked to class together, but now Vil finds time in his schedule to spend more time with Nyx outside of that

Though whenever Nyx shows up at Pomefiore, someone's bound to assume that they are in a romantic relationship

Victoria, Epel and Rook

But Vil always denied those claims and said that Nyx was just his friend

Adrien Agreste vibes out of Vil ngl💀

But then B O O M

He suddenly felt warm and fuzzy around Nyx

Well- He ALWAYS did he just never realized it until now-

It's kind of a she fell first he fell harder situation with these two

But it was Nyx who ended up confessing in the end

Because of Vil's reputation, Nyx was okay with keeping their relationship a secret but didn't necessarily mind being featured in a lot of his recent magicam posts

Naturally, Vil's fans wanted to know what kind of relationship they had, but Vil kept denying the claims that they were dating

Until he ended up slipping up and posted a picture of him and Nyx that revealed to everyone that they were dating

Given how vicious Vil's fans can get, Nyx definitely got a lotbit of hate from them

But then death threats came rushing in and it was inevitable for Nyx to start standing up for herself until Vil confronted his fans himself

When he did, they slowly began growing more fond of Nyx and they both allowed themselves to publicly show off their relationship

They mostly do the same things they did as friends for dates, but Vil got treated to a date in the monstro lounge thanks to Nyx not telling her brothers

Lumina x Jamil

In Jamil and Lumina's case, they are the textbook definition of mutual pining

Moreso than Cater and Frisk, even

They both share a silent disdain for Kalim and would often rant to each other about it when they were alone

Kalim, ever oblivious to the distaste they shared, noticed the glint in their eyes whenever they interacted

Like something clicked between them

And because of that, Kalim decided to play matchmaker and gleefully make an attempt to get Jamil and Lumina together

As of now they're still in the pining stages, but only Lumina is somewhat aware that Jamil returns her affections for him

They are carrying Scarabia in the kitchen, their cooking is DIVINE

I think a couple of the students cried a bit-

When they were kids, Lumina would often wake up Jamil up in the middle of the night to stargaze, much to the chagrin of Jamil and his parents

When Lumina moved in with her aunt, Kalim and Jamil were incredibly supportive and were willing to help her pack her things

(Since she lived with Kalim after running away from home due to her father's neglect and alcoholism, he didn't even notice she was gone)

Even after she moved away, they kept in touch and remained close for many years

They dance together at night since most of Scarabia would've already been asleep

Lumina still wakes him up so they could stargaze and walk around the dorm

Occasional flirting between the two of them, specifically with Jamil giving her a playful smirk if she ever got flustered

Azrail x Idia

Adorable together

Az often accompanies Idia's tablet around the school since he... Doesn't really attend classes in person-

Ortho loves the two of them together and is happy as long as Idia's happy, he even helps Az with his horticultural studies

Idia helps his boyfriend with his inventions for horticultural research

Let's just say that Az was a little.... Perplexed when he and Idia first met

He didn't really expect that the representative of his dorm was so.... Attractive Antisocial-

But he never judged Idia for his antisocial nature, since he decided to look at it through his perspective and quickly understood his reasons for acting the way he does

Dimitri isn't 100% keen on letting this relationship slide, given his protectiveness over Azrail. But as long as his little brother's happy, he's happy

Az doesn't have the same level of interest in anime and manga as his boyfriend, but he's supportive nonetheless and occasionally gifts him an exclusive copy of one of his favorite mangas

Don't ask him how he got them, you don't wanna know

Az was a little conflicted about Ortho at first, but he ended up growing attached to him when they started interacting more. Which relieved Idia since he was afraid they wouldn't get along-

Their dorm rooms are next to each other and Az unintentionally enters Idia's instead of his own when he's having a bad day

Idia didn't mind it though, he liked having his boyfriend's company either way

PDA is a big ol' no no for the two of them

Idia would be a little too anxious to even hold Az's hand in public, and Az doesn't find it relevant in a relationship that's built around privacy

Idia was the first person to witness Azrail cry putting on contact lenses, and he ended up wheezing himself unconscious

They order cup noodles in bulk when they're cooped up in their dorm rooms band don't want to get up and make food in the dorm's kitchen

When Az is away for something important like a family gathering, Idia secretly wears his turtlenecks since they happen to be similar in dress size

Azrail was FULLY ready to throw hands with a ghost when the ghost marriage event was in session

Man's was ready to start a cat fight with a ghost who wanted to marry his boyfriend-

Idia gave Az sound cancelling headphones that turns on the noise cancellation automatically and also allows him to detect when something's about to happen to him

Ortho also helped in making the headphones and Az typically uses them when he's writing down his notes in a loud classroom he was given permission by his professors to do that

Would watch the ghost stories dub and wheeze for the next couple of hours over the beef social media(specifically the TWST equivalent of Twitter and TikTok) has on the dub

Marylin x Lilia

(This ship is only implied, since no one actually knows if they're together or not)

Madam Monroe has known Lilia since their war days as veterans

Marylin would often joke with Lilia to hide her fear of the possibility of death, which he was very aware of

Lilia knew Marylin wanted freedom due to her upbringing, and decided to help her by using humor to help her cope

They'd train together and Marylin would mostly win by body slamming Lilia to the ground poor Lilia tbh

After their veteran days were over, they went their separate ways. Lilia began caring for Silver while Marylin began working at scepter hall

They did continue keeping in touch, and would regularly send letters and use magic in order to communicate

Silver's stumbled upon a couple of those letters and was completely flabbergasted by how flirtatious Lilia's words were. Though Lilia would confirm nor deny that he was not so subtly flirting with Marylin

Clark's met Lilia before and they instantly clicked, the former even going as far as to say Lilia got his blessing for their potential wedding-

Silver sees Marylin as the mother-figure he lacked in his childhood, and Marylin treats Silver like a son

Lilia makes frequent visits to scepter hall when he can, just so he can see his veteran buddy

When they have the time to, they'd spar like they used to whenever Lilia visits and vice versa

The two of them haven't confirmed nor have they denied any claims of a romantic relationship between them, and they only really watch the chaos unfold

 ~Luan’s Birth~

Twisted Wonderland future AU fanfic of my OC fan child of Malleus being born. Part 1

*WARNING*

Angst, sad moments, death,

October 15th

The day of birth of a new soon to be ruler of Valley of Thorns.

It was Malleus Draconia’s happiest moment of his life time. He had met someone who he had loved dearly. He never thought after graduating Night Raven College to become king and to be in an arrange marriage for a while. Managing to find love. It was a huge celebration when he and his significant other got married. It was all over the news. The Next big that came out was the queen carrying his child.

When the news started to spread like while fire, The Valley of Thorns people couldn’t wait for months to come!

That day finally arrived,

The Queen’s water broke that made the servants to rush her to a hospital as the order from the king. He went with them along the way to the hospital. To his worry, his significant other wasn’t doing too well. They was struggling to give birth after hours passed. As soon as they finally gave birth to a baby boy. The queen was starting to pass out. Malleus couldn’t tell what was going on but Lilia and the doctor pulled Malleus aside. Malleus told them to do whatever they can to help them...

After hours later, the doctor confirmed came to Malleus and Lilia. Towards them as if he couldn’t look at them directly...He confirms the queen didn’t make it. Malleus felt as if a ton of bricks had hit him. The love of his life was gone...

He asked quickly about the baby. When they told him the baby was healthy. Malleus told them to bring him to him.

The one of the other doctors brought the newborn baby to him. He handed him over to the king gently. The king held the baby carefully to his chest like a delicate feather. He was so small to him like a little ragged doll. It made himself go ill, knowing that this was all he had left from his dearly departed queen. He couldn’t stand looking at the newborn, it made him want to cry knowing this had happened… he gave the baby gently to Lilia by his side.

Later the news was happy about the baby being born but their hearts of Valley of Thorns broke knowing that their queen has died from childbirth. They were joyful of the baby being healthy. But days later of the funeral for their queen was a devastating moment at the kingdom.

They brought the flowers around the kingdom, it was almost as if a garden grew all around the palace.

The baby never got a confirmation about his name. Malleus couldn’t think about it. For a week he was isolated in his private office to work on to signs papers while his servants or guards were helping taking care of the newborn since it’s a king’s responsibility. Today, the servants, Silver or Sebek were having some trouble. He has cried none stopped to the point where they went to Lilia. His lullaby didn’t work on the baby! Lilia thought of an idea to handed the infant over to Silver for the elder faerie to go to Malleus’ office. He began to knock right at his door.

“My king, you’ve been overworking yourself. Please come out we need your help with something.” The long haired raven male said a loud in a calm tone.

Malleus pauses himself to lay his pen next to his paper work on the side of his desk. He sighed to himself, as if knowing what Lilia was going to tell him. He moves himself off his seat to leave his work place to open the door. He sees the familiar guardian that was always by his side standing before him with a smile.

“Hello Lilia, what is it?”

“You’ve been cooped up in there for a long while. You deserve a break for once to be with the baby for at least a half hour. Please. The poor thing hasn’t stopped crying.” Lilia told him, he knows he is still upset over the queen. But he must interact with his own child.

Yes being a king means responsibility, but he can be with his own child for a break. What kind of parent would he if he doesn’t? A terrible one at that.. He took a deep breath. Malleus himself knows that he has to be with his child. “Okay, I’ll try to help. But I must finish up the papers soon.”

Lilia nodded to him with a cheerful smile. “You might as hold it off now.”

Malleus locked the door to close it before leaving. The two wander over into a fairly nice room for a baby to be in with a cradle and some huge basket with baby toys. Gifts from others especially from Kalim.

Malleus stopped to hear, crying echoing in the room. Silver was holding the baby, rocking him for a bit. “Don’t cry anymore. Please.” He mewled a bit, upset with himself that the advice from his father to help this poor child.

“Silver! You’re rocking him too much! He must focus on the rattle!” Sebek snapped at him as he shakes the baby rattle for the baby to distract him from crying anymore. Silver’s eyes looked to Sebek,

“Please calm your voice down or he’ll cry more.” Silver said trying to sound quiet but baby wouldn’t stop whaling.

Lilia giggled for a bit as Malleus looked over to him. “Oh dear, we have a little situation.” Lilia took a few more steps over to the two young men.

Sebek looks back to see the king and Lilia. “Your majesty! You’re here!”

Silver sighed a bit, feeling as if this a terrible situation. But he was relived that they arrived. He handed the wailing baby over to his father who approached ot him. Lilia started to rock him gently,

“Ah you poor little one. There should be no crying in this castle!” He giggled a little he responds. His red eyes glanced to the king. “Just hold him. Maybe he’ll be happier.” He began to walk over to hand over the little baby prince. Malleus carefully holds him around his arms. The baby was still weeping none stop.

Malleus looks over the two guardians, “Have you fed him?”

“The maids have tried to but he would spit it out his bottles or a spoon full of food. I tried to have him have his pacifier but he would spit it out,” Silver explained what happened as he sighed a little, “we thought maybe he needed a diaper change so we changed him. We thought that would solve the problem but apparently not. He would still cry after that. We tried to have my father’s help for assistance. Not even his lullaby would help. The baby didn’t want to listen.”

“I woke Silver up when he fell asleep into the basket of toys.” Sebek said with a hand to his face.

“It was kind of funny,”. Lilia laughed to himself. He looks up to the king. “I thought he maybe ill but he isn’t. So we thought maybe he wanted you.”

Malleus’s green eyes landed down upon to the red faced scrunched up baby who was howling. Trying to remember how he handled Silver was a baby. Rocking the poor baby slowly, gently. 

“Please little one. I’m here. What is it that you want?” He kept trying to think of what could possibly made this newborn be this way? They said he was healthy, they changed him, a rare thing for Lilia’s lullabies not to work on him. What could it be?

Was it his fault? 

Was it his fault that he didn’t want to look at his own child? It must be it. Guilt strikes in the young king. He was making the dragon king down in ill. All because the loved of his life had such a cruel death. The thought of giving birth to the child you’ve been longing to meet since you’ve wanted a child, and then death takes you away. Not even at least letting them hold the newborn for at least for long...

Why?

Why them?

Before Malleus could get into deeper thought, a tug was pulled by his hair made him snap out of it. It was not a hard tug. His green eyes analyzed the small hand gripping onto his streak of long hair. Green orbs trailed to the baby starring right up at him with teary glittering eyes. Whimpering a bit. He never noticed he had the same green eyes as him. The watery eyes reminded him of little stars for some odd reason.

He wasn’t crying as much but his whimpers were fading. He placed the baby’s head onto his shoulder.

“Oh! He’s not crying anymore!” Lilia said with a grin.

“Thank goodness...” Silver mumbled.

“Hush Silver!” Sebek snapped at Silver.

“Malleus try the rocking chair. Maybe he’ll fall asleep if you’ll sit down.” Lilia insisted.

Malleus walks over to the rocking chair near the baby cradle. Malleus sits down rocking the chair with the baby still whimpering.

“Sing him a lullaby. Maybe with you it’ll work.” Lilia encourages the dragon faerie king.

The king took a deep breathe again, he remembers a lullaby by heart. He used to listen to when he was little from his grandmother or Lilia. An ancient lullaby that used to make children sleep every night. He started to sing the lullaby, hoping the infant would listen to the sweet song. It was soothing song, to anyone’s ears. The baby whimpers faded each time as Malleus was singing to him. His little head started to lay against him like a pillow. His little arms wrapped around his shoulder to grip onto. Lilia was smiling at this perfect picture of Malleus with his child. Sebek was in tears, it was such a precious moment in his life time to see his Young master with his baby. Silver had fallen asleep again as Sebek was holding him and shaking him to wake up. Sebek didn’t want to ruin this beautiful moment as in respect for the king. Malleus hears with his pointy ears the baby was sounding asleep.

Malleus didn’t want to let him go, he would to let this precious baby to stay in his arms forever.

Lilia tip-toed over to the king to whisper, “We should put him to bed now.”

Malleus nodded he slowly, feeling a little upset to let this moment end. But he got up from the chair to set the sleeping baby on his cradle to slumber. Lilia pulls the blanket over onto the boy. They slowly were leaving the room for the baby to have quiet. As soon as everyone walked out from the room. Lilia closed the door gently.

Sebek looks to his king as he started to speak quietly “That was the most beautiful thing I have ever witnessed with you, your majesty. Your lullaby was breathtaking.” Sebek was trying to stay quiet but his sniffles is what made Malleus worried for the baby to hear. Lilia wanted to laugh at Sebek’s reaction but held it and gave him a handkerchief instead to wipe away his tears.

Silver crossed his arms as he speaks to the king, “Malleus, have you thought of name? We never got a confirmation about his name since… You know.” Silver spoke no further in a quiet tone. It did bother him that Malleus never named the baby since he was grieving over the queen’s death. The King had a depression after all, he couldn’t come up with a name. He now thought about it for a moment.

“Hm your right. But I think I know what to call him,” The three looked at him, “The child of mine should be named, Luan.”

“It’s perfect!” Sebek exclaimed happily.

Lilia and Silver hushed him to keep quiet. Lilia’s pointy ears started to hear a little whimpering from the other side of the door as he made a sheepish smile. “Oh dear…” looking at the door.

Malleus quickly goes inside the room to go see the baby whimpering awake. He quickly picks Luan up into his arms.

“My deepest apologizes, your majesty! Forgive me!” Sebek cried.

“Sebek, just stop talking.” Silver said with a hand to his face.

Malleus cradling to look down to small prince. Luan doesn’t seem like he was about to cry. His eyes were closed and he scrunch his noses. He wiggled around in the king’s arms. The king was puzzled at the moment.

“What’s the matter, Luan?”

The baby opened his mouth to let out green flames at his father’s face. His bangs were on fire.

“Your majesty!!” Sebek and Silver both exclaimed as Lilia started to laugh hysterically.

Malleus uses his magic to evaporate the green flames. Although his bangs were crusty, the end of his tips of the hair were crumbled or a little burned out.

“That brought back some nice memories~!” Lilia said reminding himself of the nostalgic memories.

The little Luan stared at Malleus as he started to whine a little almost teary eyed. Malleus shushes him trying to soothing as he kisses the tiny forehead.

“I’m not injured, no need to worry.” Malleus said, uses his arm to hold the baby to push back his burnt bangs. Showing his mark on his forehead. His eyes looked down to Luan’s big green eyes looking right up at him. His baby arms squirmed around to grab Malleus’s hair. He uses his black nail-polished finger to dangle to the baby for him to grab it fully in the little palm of his.

Malleus’s corners of his lips started to rise.

It was the first time that Malleus has made that expression to anyone for a while….

➻ comments: i have a lot of requests that involves singing. anonie, you made me look for sad songs and i had to listen to a whole ass playlist followed by sad pianos. aaaaaaa i can finally write some angst!!

The rain poured that late afternoon.

The pitter-patter of droplets calmed you down as you stared outside of the classroom. It was five minutes before classes would end. The sounds of your professor’s voice were muffled in your ears as you watched nature unfold its tears in front of you. It’s tears being the life source of plants and rivers while also healing the souls of humans. The critters that would often bustle around the school campus now stay within their homes for shelter. The sun was barely seen as its beautiful colours now drowned behind the dark clouds. You assumed the rain would get heavier later on.

The bell rang and students began to pack their things, ready to head back to their dorms to finish homework and rest. Clubs were cancelled for today due to the rain and it would be unfair if outdoor clubs would only get the cancellation. However, you figured the rain won’t stop Malleus from doing his nightly rounds around his school either for his gargoyle research society or for his usual hobby. At least, that’s what you’ve heard from Lilia.

Yet, the rain didn’t stop you from secluding yourself from the others. Surely, the dorm would be a good place to run to, then sleeping on your warm bed while the rain poured. However, you couldn’t, not yet. Maybe, you could enjoy the rain during your little walk? Less likely. It’s not like you would see Malleus when you’re worlds apart. With your umbrella sheltering you from nature’s tears, you walked away from the school building and around the grounds. Luliton, Academy Of Sorcery’s grounds at night looked scary, that’s why you stayed where there were lights and stayed as near as you can around the mirror chamber. 

Yes, you could say Luliton was The Valley of Thorns’ own version of Night Raven College. It wasn’t that popular nor as prestigious as the said school but, itis the perfect school for you. It’s smaller than NRC, best fit for someone who likes to value their alone time.

You sighed and walked over to the hooded bridge near the mirror chamber. Nature’s tears love blending in with your mood, no? Perhaps, it’s because you miss your darling fae. Your friends have probably gone back to the dorm by now. It’s just you and nature while the time of crepuscule finally dawned on the earth. You closed your umbrella, hooking it on the bridge’s ledge, leaning your arms on the platform. It was peaceful. The lanterns were on yet the absence of fireflies somehow affected you.

You remember how Malleus would make fun of you by disappearing and appearing anywhere. Every time he would do that, small green firefly-like lights would dance around you. They would tickle your skin a lot.

My, why are you reminiscing as if he’s gone?

“Remember me…” you hummed, leaning on the bridge’s post. “Though I have to say goodbye… Remember me…” You reached your hand out from under the shelter. The rain dropped on your hand gently, drenching your uniform sleeve as the droplets fell to the flowing river under you. You tilted your head to the side as you watched the rain dance on your hand. Or is it, you, catching nature’s tears since no one would pay attention to it?

“Don’t let it make you cry…” You brought your hand back and dried it off. “For ever if I’m far away, I hold you in my heart…” You looked over at the other end of the bridge and began walking. You left your umbrella behind, not like it would disappear. “I sing a secret song to you… each night we are apart…” Your voice, calm and mellifluous, blended with the water hitting the soil. Subconsciously, maybe even not, you pushed yourself under the rain.

Her tears hitting your clothes and skin, drenching you almost immediately. You didn’t care, you wanted to accompany mother nature with her emotions. Is she in need of a hug right now if she were human would you run and give her one. Is it that you are touch-starved? How childish of you to suddenly miss your beloved. You remember…

“Remember me…”

“Though I have to travel far…”

...that night where you both were chosen by your schools. His was a black carriage, and yours was a golden one. It pained you to separate ways for your own good, but that’s the test. It won’t last long, it won’t take forever. It’s not like you won’t see each other again. The feared dark fae would’ve been smirking and teasing you by now if he saw the desperate look on your face. He knew you would miss him. Wouldn’t he be as well?

“Remember me…”

“Each time you hear a sad guitar…”

“Know that I’m with you…”

You dwelled deeper into the forest-like garden Luliton had. Your face was already wet in her tears, maybe even yours. You wouldn’t know. You missed him. It has been months since you last saw him. You wished he was doing his best. And you wished he was by your side, right now. Selfish is thee to hope, but not to force.

“The only way that I can be…”

“Until you’re in my arms again…”

Your voice cracked and you covered your mouth. Is it one of those moments where you saudade on the presence of the other? Perhaps. Homesickness was an understatement. You sniffled, looking up to the sky and watching as the ongoing droplets freely fell from the clouds. No stars painting the sky nor animals around to join you in your solemn walk. “Mal mal…” you sobbed and covered your eyes. Crying along as nothing can comfort you but nature’s own tears dropping on you.

“Why are you out here and not inside your dorm?”

You quickly spun around and slouched. Relaxing your shoulders as your eyes laid on your dragon’s form. More tears cascaded down your cheeks, lips quivering into a solemn smile just when you hastily ran over to him and wrapped your arms around his chest. You broke down into more sobs at the very moment that you felt his warm body against your cold and soaked frame. Your hands clenched on his clothes feeling that if you would let go, he would disappear.

Cliche, yes, but you’re in a state of wanting to be touched. 

“What’s wrong little beastie?” Malleus asked, a hand holding the umbrella above both of you and the other holding on your fragile form. He hears your cries, he heard your song. Though he already knew the answer, he wanted to hear it from you directly. Both you and Malleus are touch-deprived, even from those who are in the same school as you. “I miss you…” you hiccuped, “...so much. I look stupid b-but I really—” you fell into short breaths as you looked up at his green eyes.

He was smiling down at you. Smirking, maybe? You couldn’t tell. Either way, he was probably going to tease you again. “I wasn’t even gone that long. I just gave you a letter a week ago.” He tilted his head to the side, his lips stretching more, amused by your puffy nose and small hiccups. He likes the feeling of being missed. Makes him have a purpose in your life other than being your boyfriend.

“I don’t care…” you breathed out and hugged him tighter. “I want you. A-And if you’re going to tease me, do it already.” You buried your head on his chest before mumbling, “I missed that too…”

“My, little beastie, you’re such a cry baby.” He laughed and easily scooped you up. You adjusted your arms and wrapped them around his neck, hiding your flushed face from his view. “I know…” 

“And haven’t I warned you about going out when it’s raining? You’ll catch a cold.”

“I don’t care…” you huffed, starting to calm down from your break down. The presence of your man warming your whole body. “Gives me a better reason to have you by my side.”

“Little beastie, you know that doesn’t impress me in the slightest.” There goes his protective side. 

Perhaps, nature’s tears do bring some joy to others. She continues to cry down on her creations, cooling the atmosphere, feeding the plants, and hydrating other creatures. It is when in someone’s distress she would be of a company. She knows when it is time to bloom. Fret not, she will smile again and let the warmth on the sun light down on the future of a human and a fae.

Ruggie bucchi

• It was almost lunch time when you finally found the deluxe sandwiches you wanted, it's actually hard to get them so finally luck smiled into your face and you got it!

• You carefully held it and took a bite from it, it sent you to dream land since you always wanted to try it, you hummed happily enjoying the taste.

• "Mmm it's so delicious~♡ , this day won't get better than that, would it?" You said as you moved the sandwich more towards your mouth ready to take another bite but that when leona dashed into the cafeteria, he was angry! He held something on his hand.

• He looked left and right like if he's looking for someone till his eyes landed on you and that's when his eyes widened as he came towards you.

• You didn't know if you have to run or just accept what is going to happen to you, finally he stood in front of you, you took a close look in what he was holding, it was an almost year old baby.....

• "Is that ruggie?" You said pointing at the crying baby whom was held by his back by leona

• "Aha that's right! And he's all yours now!" Said leona shoving the baby in your free hand as the sandwich was safely in the other hand

• Ruggie started crying as he held tight into your shoulder and cried even harder

• "But leona! I don't know what to do with him!" You yelled at leona who was already pissed

• "And i can't sleep!" Said leona snatching the sandwich from your hand and leaving

• Ruggie stood up as he returned to his normal , he saw your tired sleeping form on the desk, he felt happy that you cared for him, he appreciated what you did for him.

• He pulled a blanket and placed it on your back placing a small kiss on your forehead, he was leaving then he remembered something...

!!!!!!Warning!!!!!!!!

This Fic depicts public suicide, gore, and the emotional aftermath, this is not for the faint of heart!

You have been warned.

----------------------------

Russian Roulette.

The young girl had wanted to play that game for some time now, but she knew that nobody would play it with her, not unless they knew that nobody would actually die. She knew how to make sure that she was the one who bit the bullet. She had, in so many ways, wanted to die, anyway. So what was wrong with making it fun? That's when she heard it.

A song from her homeworld. She could sing it on stage, practicing everyday with the other person... And what a coincidence, the song was about Russian Roulette. She knew one person who she might be able to convince... Leona Kingscholar. She headed to Savannaclaw dorm to recruit him.

To her surprise, he agreed, so long as it didn't require that he do too much. She had explained that all chambers of the gun would actually be empty. This way, neither of them would get hurt.

The day finally came, and it was dizzying, the lights, and crowd., it was almost too much for the young girl. But she had nothing to live for, so what harm could it do? Nobody would miss her. Hell, she was probably the most annoying student at NRC, right? All this would accomplish would be to piss off the janitor.

As she and Leona took the stage, she took a deep breath, preparing herself, steadying her pulse. Leona looked at her. "All this practice, and you're still nervous, eh, herbivore?" He raised an eyebrow, but she didn't respond. They sat at their places at the table she had set up, and she began. "Take a breath. Take it deep. 'Calm yourself' he says to me...." As she sang they passed the gun back and forth.

Her hands trembled near the middle of the song, she hadn't realized just how serious this was. It wasn't until now that the fear of non-existence set in. She came from a world of science, not magic. There were no ghosts. There were no souls, and there would be no afterlife for her. She would merely stop existing. She pressed on, though. She wasn't going to turn back now, not when she had planned this so thoroughly.

As the song came to a close, a few tears trickled down her face, she took a breath, and squeezed the trigger.

Leona had flinched at the loud bang of a live bullet being fired from the gun. He found himself frozen. Paralyzed from shock and horror. He wanted to scream, but he couldn't find his voice. He just sat there, a warm sensation trickling down his leg. So many thoughts rushed through his mind in that moment. But he couldn't get one to come out of his mouth. After what felt like forever, it finally sank in that she had committed suicide.

He couldn't do anything but cry. He suddenly felt like a frightened child. Not knowing what to do, or who to turn to. Nobody had ever taken their own life in his presence before. He cried as he stared at the gaping exit wound. The blood and brain tissue that had exploded out of her skull. He suddenly felt sick. He threw up, until there was nothing left in his stomach....

-----------

The aftermath...

NRC was never quite the same after what everyone now referred to as "the incident". It was less painful than calling it what it really was, a carefully planned suicide.

Leona ended up dropping out altogether, he sought therapy. Anything that would help him heal, at least a little. But it still kept him up most nights. The sound of the gun, how frightened she looked in her last few seconds, how he should've listened to the bad feeling in his gut before the performance. He couldn't help but to feel that he was somehow to blame.

Malleus had begun to avoid the Ramshackle dorm altogether. There were too many memories with the child of man, as he had called her. She was the only person who wasn't scared of him, even after figuring out who he really was.

Grim was transferred to Heartslabyul, and given the status of being a full fledged student, all on his own. But it meant nothing without her. She had been there with him from the start. He had hoped that she would graduate with him. But that dream was shattered. He missed his friend dearly.

A new rule had been established at Heartslabyul. Nobody was allowed to say her name, or speak of the incident. Riddle couldn't bear hearing about it. All of it came down on his head. He had thought the firearm had been a toy. How was he supposed to know? He had never seen a real gun before. But that didn't stop a few people from placing the blame squarely on his shoulders.

Floyd didn't talk much after learning that shrimpy had taken her own life. He couldn't get his mind off of it. Off of the fact that he would never see her again. She wouldn't be there to brighten his day... That didn't keep him from looking for her, or looking at Magicam everyday, half-expecting a new post from her, even months after she was long gone.

Jade had stayed strong for his brother, but most nights he found himself laying awake, tears streaming down his face, wondering if Azul's unique magic would be strong enough to bring her back. Would he have to give his own life in return? The more he thought about it, the more he found himself believing that he would gladly sell his soul to get her back.

[DCA Event] - Six Queens Event Part 1

Event Summary: One day, six of the dorm leaders have been having nightmares of living someone else’s life. Sick of the sleepless nights they consult their professors for an answer. Possessed by six souls of dead royals who had unfinished business, how will the dorm leaders handle this?

[Campus Faculty]

Six of the dorm leaders enter the faculty which got the attention of almost all the teachers. But what had them concerned were the dark circles and disheveled appearances. 

The first to rush to the girls were Asher and Florence, being the dads that they were they immediately going over to them. Duchess noticed their eyes looked different. Evonie had yellow eyes, Allison’s green eyes are a brighter green, Briar had grey eyes, Vidya had red eyes, Cerule had Pink eyes and Rozeline had blue eyes. 

The girls explained that ever since they had their eyes change color, they’ve been plagued with nightmares of someone’s past life. The professors inquired more and traced back to what might have caused this.

Rozeline recalled everything in full detail on last week, the biggest clue was the filed trip to the history museum when they approached a portrait about a historically known king who had six wives. 

Conclusion, it was probably the portrait since the only ones who stayed behind to view it were six of the dorm leaders.

Actius remembers a similar incident that happened in his hometown and the last time some people got possessed by the six ghosts, they couldn’t take it and went insane. 

That was all Actius managed to say before Florence shut his mouth when the girls started to freak out and see their lives flash before their eyes.

Florence: OKAY! That’s enough Actius, you’re gonna scare the girls!

Actius: mppfh! mggpfhh! (My bad!)

Everyone is freaking out and or trying to calm down those who are freaking out but Rozeline was pondering about a solution amongst the chaos until she has a eureka moment.

Rozeline: If we can’t rewrite history, then how about we make a musical?

Everyone goes quiet and Duchess just goes, “That’s a great idea! There’s musicals about historical figures, we could try that!”.

Bless her heart...

[The Planning]

Rozeline spent half the week in the library researching the history and lives of the six queens as much as she could. And by the end of that half week, she has a binder compiling all the details of their lives but only highlighted a select few for theater portrayal.

Rozeline: I have done my research and let me tell you...

Everyone:....?

Rozeline: The king is a ####!

So, she took it upon herself to write a perfect script and fitting songs that will honor the six wives who suffered unhappy marriages. Everyone didn’t question as she started to assign who’s going to help with the stage play.

Ella was notified and started to draw out sketches for the costumes. It was renaissance at first until Rozeline says that this is the modern era, and that the costumes should be about “the queens” and NOT “the husband”. Ella crumples the paper with a fiery gaze.

Not because she’s angry at the rejection but as soon as she heard the word QUEEN she will make rearrangements as Rozeline requested. If it’s a queen she wants then she’ll make the costumes so dazzling and regally modern that the audience will scream in admiration!

Keep in mind, when Rozeline reads her expression morphs depending on how the chapter went. And reading about the tragedy about the six wives made her wear this frustrated expression for a long while. Everyone thought she was going to implode. She went a shade of red that would out Riddle to shame.

For the stage setup, they assigned Elu and Jinlong to fix the stage. Elu is in charge of fixing the backdrop while Jinlong has the lighting. The setting submitted by Rozeline was just one which was unusual but they trusted her judgement because she’s written the school plays and a lot of them were popular.

The other five have their hands full with rehearsing the lines and singing the individual songs of their characters.

The professors on the other hand, rented out an auditorium for the stage play. Florence went all out and advertised tickets and posters about the stage play. This isn’t the first time he’s advertised outside the school but this time they had a large audience to perform for.

He rented out the stage from a very famous Broadway building.

[Crowley gets word from Citrouille]

When Citrouille got a hold of Crowley she mentions a play that will be viewed in a famous Broadway building, Crowley wants the opportunity. 

That means he will also be attending, lol. Ditch his duties to watch a play.

The students gathered around the billboard to see the poster, at first they weren’t as interested but suddenly Crowley said, “Those who bought tickets will be exempted for the day”.

Cue the blood bath that followed, students want to get a ticket.

Those who aren’t worried were those who had friends at DCA, lucky bastards.

Azul got three tickets from Cerule, Kalim got two from Vidya, Riddle got five from Allison, Ella gave one to Divus and three to Vil. And guess who personally came to Diasomnia to give the tickets? Yep, Briar went out of her way to give Malleus four ticktes to the play. Boy was stoic but when he went back to his room he squealed like a high school girl and cried tears.

Rozeline messages Jack and asks him if he wants a ticket or two, he gets two but he tries asking Leona and Ruggie they decline. He runs into Ortho and he gives the ticket to him since Ortho can record the play for his brother. 

Everyone was excited for the play in store. Boy were they in for a surprise.

TWST OC WEEK Day 6: Farewell

OC: Dorothy Linwalt

The NRC Graduation was as special, if not even more special than the opening ceremonies. Aside from the students, family and special guests were invited to witness the closing of the students' NRC life.

The formal rites were held in the same room where the students had their opening ceremonies. The candidates donned their finest ceremonial robes, while the undergrads who volunteered to be ushers and usherettes watched from the sides as their seniors went up on stage. The dorm leaders, regardless of year, were required to attend to recognize their outstanding members.

Formal and peaceful is what it usually was. Following the ceremonies, there was a special banquet prepared for everyone at the dining hall.

Lively chatter filled the hall. Parents, professors, and guardians chatted with one another as the students met up with their friends once again after being away for months due to their internship. Although they did come back for the cultural festival held every February, most of them still used this time to finish their research and papers.

"Have you told them yet, little one? We will be leaving tonight." Lilia reminded the young Linwalt who was then caught up in watching her parents chat away with the Schoenheits. Business as usual I guess.

She shook her head to the fae; she was waiting for the right time to tell them, but she didn't really know when the right time was, or even how to tell them.

"Ah, Dorothy! Look how much you've grown!" a jolly lady called out from her side, one she fondly remembered as one of the elders who took great care of her too. "Congratulations! My, my! Cater never mentioned anything about what an achiever you are!"

"Mrs Diamond! It's been too long! Congratulations as well!" she beamed the mother a smile and pressed her cheeks against hers in a friendly, familial kiss.

"Time flies by fast, don't you think? Ah, one day you and little Cay were just playing out in the garden, then the next thing we knew, you're both going your own ways!"

Dorothy nodded to Mrs Diamond’s musings; she'd been watching her son take numerous photos and groupies with every group he could get his hands on.

"Do you have any plans yet? Cay mentioned that he'd be taking some months off first."

"I haven't really given it much thought..." she cooed, even if she knew exactly where she had to go after graduation. Explaining things to her would be too troublesome for both parties anyway.

"Acceptable. This is a drastic shift for you all anyway. But, I know you'll be able to find it soon. As your father says, there's nothing-"

"There's nothing a Linwalt can't do, yes." Dorothy chuckled, finishing Mrs Diamond's statement with her. She bid her farewells as soon as she saw her parents part from the Schoenheits.

Her father approached her, wrapped his arm around her shoulders, kissed her forehead and tugged her hood lower on her face. "Ah well isn't it our little butterscotch! Congratulations again, my dear." Before she could even muster a reply, her mother chimed in to call them both. The lady had the headmaster in tow.

There she was, the overly enthusiastic mother who had the chance to speak with the famed school's headmaster. To be honest, this would be pretty new to them, given that both Mr and Mrs Linwalt graduated from RSA.

The headmaster sounded a bit panicked from his usual, but he's still as gracious as he boasts. He congratulated them, and even boasted about the young Linwalt's exemplary performances. Thankfully, he never mentioned the terrible incidents she got caught up in during her stay— overblots and all. He did understand the outlook of RSA graduates towards these issues.

"Ah, Ms Linwalt, I've heard from Mr Vanrogue that you'll be working with the Draconias from--" She made a sudden face at the headmaster, pleading for him to shut up; but his words left his lips sooner than she had hoped.

Both her parents gave her questioning looks.

"I'm sorry, she'll be what now?" Mrs Linwalt called out to the headmaster, fingers splayed above her chest in sudden shock.

Dorothy let out a heavy, heavy sigh. She excused the headmaster, and he left with a curt bow to the family, along with the big oops painted across his masked face.

"I'll be working at the Valley of Thorns. That's what the headmaster meant." she briefly stated as a matter of factly to her parents.

Her father frowned, "What do you mean you'll work there? I thought we talked this over? The printing press, remember? Isn't that why you had your internship-"

"I had my internship back home so I could spend more time with you." her voice slightly raised above the idle murmur of the crowd, but she quickly softened it to a respectful tone, "But eventually I still need to leave for the Valley of Thorns."

"Need? What do you think you are? Someone they can just order around?" her mother's voice began to raise, both in tone and in volume— a sign that she was getting mad.

Some heads began to turn their way, but she just decided to turn the other way to avoid suspicion. She opened and then closed her mouth, eyes darting around with hopes that she'd find the proper words on the faces of people. "I... No, but..."

"Mr Linwalt and Mrs Linwalt, I assume. A pleasant afternoon to you both, some refreshments for the lovely family?" a familiar sing-song voice called out from over her shoulder. Azul had been managing the banquet just until then when he eyed someone getting into trouble with her parents, and with the slight raise in her mother's voice, he had to chime in to keep the mood light.

They both got the ombre blue shimmering drinks, a sip from both and some silence later, their heads started to cool down.

"Mom, Dad... You see, it's not a job I applied for, but it is one that falls burden to my family. As the only child, it is one I am obliged to take." she slowly spoke, swirling the watered down drink in her hand. "I'm sorry, I should've told you sooner, but-"

"Your family? But aren't we your family? Isn't it just right that you stay here, with us? Howard, please." her mother tried to call her out again, even with the brash attempt to ask for her husband's support.

But it was like a pin had popped her patience balloon all over again. "Sevens! Have you already forgotten what I am? What you did to me?" pinching her nose bridge with her index and thumb, she stilled, and tried to compose herself again before further reasoning out. "Yes, you are my family. But I... I'm a fae, mother, and as much as I would want to, I can't stay and leave my responsibilities behind. Apparently, a path has been set there for me even before I was born. It just so happened that I was taken away before I knew it."

Her mother brought her hand to her lips and just walked away. Shocked was the least of her reactions. Of course she'll lose it. One of her prized exotics will be leaving her lot, Dorothy thought. But her father stayed, disappointment painted across his face but still willing to listen and understand.

"Forgive her. She's... Just in shock." Dorothy nodded in silence, tears pricking her eyes. She wasn't expecting things to turn out as bad as they did. "When will you need to leave then?"

"Tonight."

Her father pulled her into a tight hug, one she really needed right then. Honestly, it broke her heart to leave them like that. There was still so much to say, but so little time; but she was left with no choice.

She cried in his arms, apologizing vaguely as her dark makeup stained his crisp shirt and coat.

He rubbed comfortable circles across her back, "Shhh, we'll see each other again soon, right? No need for tears, butterscotch." She nodded, even though she didn't know when ‘soon’ will be.

When her cries calmed down, he took his hanky and wiped off the stray tears and smudged make up off her face. "You'll do great, dear. I just know it. You know why?" He cupped her face with both his hands and placed a light kiss on her head, "— Because there's nothing a Linwalt can't do."

This cliche statement he always bragged about finally made her smile, even for just a bit. "I'll miss you so so much, dad."

From the end of the room, she could see the Diasomnia seniors exiting the hall already, save for Malleus, Nadia, and Lilia waiting for her by the threshold.

Before she left, she looked for her mother. Though she looked everywhere her tired eyes could reach, she couldn't find her in the hall. Luckily, she found Azul refilling the glasses by the banquet table.

Eyes swollen and make up ruined, Azul almost threw hands at the first sight of her, "Oya, my dear, what happened to you?!"

She brushed a stray tear from her cheek and just shook her head to the junior, "Have you seen my mother? Slightly taller than me, of medium built, she's wearing a red-"

"Calm down, I know what she looks like. Hm, I saw her leave the hall earlier, perhaps she's out at the main road. All the other passageways around campus are closed."

With a quick hold to his hand in thanks, she stormed off to the college's main road, Zooming past Malleus, Nadia, and Lilia on the way out, "I'll be right back!"

Azul was right. She was there, standing in front of the statue of the Witch of Thorns, casually wiping her nose with every sniffle. "Mom?" she softly called out, slightly panting from running down and out of the building.

The sun almost set over the horizon. Ruby and amber painted the stone pathways of her, then, alma mater

"You know, I never really wanted you to study here. Your father and I were overjoyed when we received your acceptance letter and invitation from RSA..." Her mother spoke, still facing the statue, as if the elegant witch were actually listening to every word she said. "But it looks like fate has its own mysterious way of being known."

Dorothy sauntered over to her mother, hesitantly touched her hand and held it firmly.

"Mom," Dorothy softly called out with a little tug on the hand she held. When her mother finally turned to face her, she held out her free hand open, palm up, allowing some magic to flow— white mist crystalizing at the center of her palm, creating an intricate snowflake pendant necklace. Her mother watched in awe, seeing her daughter cast such magic with ease.

"For you, so that I'll always be with you wherever I go." Dorothy held out the necklace to her mother, a little smile gracing her soft features. Her mother took the necklace and studied the magical piece of work closely with her bare eyes.

"I really can't convince you to stay?"

"I'm afraid not, mother."

"Stay for dinner, then."

Dorothy shook her head at her mother's final attempt and request, "We'll be leaving tonight."

The older Linwalt turned her head to stare back at the statue of the Witch of Thorns, leaving her daughter's hand empty and cold once again. "Faes— wouldn't you agree that they're fascinating creatures?"

"As are humans, mother."

A short pause came from her mother before she finally spoke up again, letting out a sigh in her wake, "Is it too late for you to accept my sincerest of apologies? For everything?"

She fondled with the hems of her robe; uneasiness building up in her at the fear of being too direct with her mother. "I... I don't know. That...thing, it took so, so much away from me. But, in turn, it has gifted me some things that can't ever be replaced."

The faint sounds of chatter echoed from within the building, guests and students began to take their leave. Dorothy's phone chimed as well— a text perhaps, they might be looking for her.

"I understand," her mother sheepishly nodded. She'd always been a proud, eccentric woman; much like a certain hunter from Pomefiore, she found beauty in some of the oddest things.

"I just have one request..." her mother turned to face her, tears threatened to spill from her eyes as she cupped the precious necklace in both hands, "Don't be a stranger, okay?"

She was relieved to finally have a blessing of sorts and threw herself, hugging her mother tightly out of the blue as if they were to never see and touch one another again. "I won't, mom. Never in a million years. I swear to the Seven."

A quick ring came from her phone, but before she could answer it, a young man clad in black and green called out from behind both the mother and daughter, causing them to break their little moment to turn towards him. "Doty senp- ah-"

"Silver,"

Quick to realize the moment he broke, the junior slightly bowed to both mother and daughter, "My apologies, Mrs Linwalt, senpai, but, the old- uh, Lilia sent me to escort you back to the dorm."

Her mother gave her a little nudge towards the student. Dorothy looked at her, only to see a little smile grace her thin wine stained lips. "Go on butterscotch. We'll see you soon."

She mouthed bye to her mother before sauntering off to Silver's side. Silver knew of his senior's predicament, so he gave her space, allowing their walk back to be quiet, save for the videos from Cater's messages she was watching on her phone.

‘Hi hi, Dots! It's your favorite among your favorite Diamonds, Cay-kun~! …’

‘Enough of that Cay! Doty!!!! Our baby Cay mentioned that you won't be coming back anytime soon! We'll miss doting on our adopted little sister…’

‘Fufufu. Well, I'm glad you got to figure things out already, dear. I'm sure your parents are very proud of you already…’

They arrived at the front doors of Diasomnia with one of the sophomores waiting just outside for their arrival. The students gathered at the main room, eagerly listening to the speech of their new dorm leader. Formal, as usual. Uptight, and not an ounce of humor to his words.

She stood beside Lilia at the side of the room with the other seniors. The veteran fae looked at her with his face closing in on purpose to get her to look at him; and she did. "How was the talk, child?"

"Okay, I guess." she answered curtly, not willing to expound any further on the topic. Silver shook his head to Lilia in earnest, prompting him to not press any further questions; he did know how curious his old man could get.

A short pause from both, then she tapped Lilia's shoulder before turning away, "I should go and pack up."

Bags packed and room kept, just like when she first arrived at the dorm. A short knock to the door broke her from her musings on the many memories from her stay at the college. "Come in!"

She was expecting one of her assigned guards to be the one to call her down, but the too low tone told her otherwise. "Are you ready, dearest?"

She nodded, turning to the fae at the threshold of her room. Then, with a short wave of her hand, her bags gently lifted off from the bed and easily hovered over to her side.

"Wait," Malleus abruptly called before both of them were surrounded with the swirling lights of green fireflies. In a moment's time, their robes changed to black and gold embellished clothes. Sleek, elegant, and regal.

She cocked her head slightly to the side in obvious question, earning her a brief explanation from the man pouting before her, "It is... tradition."

"It's a nice touch." she chuckled as she fixed the little golden tie accessory he wore.

His lips curved up to a smile the moment hers did. Truly, she emanated the strength of her mother and the optimism of her father— both, human and fae alike.

Malleus extended his hand to her, one she'd be willing to take again and again, no matter what the circumstances were. "Shall we?"

As expected, she took it without a sliver of regret, "Let's go home."

Everyone looked at you in confusion.

“I don’t believe my eyes! After many years of being a headmaster, I never imagined that a human from another world got transported here,” Crowley said, sulking, “You don’t have magic and what’s worse is that you’re a child!”

You just blinked as you scanned everyone in the room. Yes, I know that the boys in the room are gorgeous! However, you’re a child here. In your perspective, they look quite frightening and intimidating. You’re already quivering in fear.

“W-whe-where’s m-my mama and pa-papa?” You asked as you’re in brink of tears. They might not be good parents to you but it’s better to have a familiar face than none.

“Ummm..sadly, they are not here. Ummm...they are somewhere far away from here. You probably might not see them again,” Crowley answered. It’s probably not the best answer as you started to cry hearing the last sentence. Real smooth, Headmaster Crowley.

Everyone is either still at the state of confusion or in a state of panic. Who could blame them? You’re a child. The state of everyone is all thanks to errr...a certain one brain cell headmaster of NRC.

“That’s not how you should answer the child’s question, Headmaster Crowley,” Lilia said as he walked towards your crying figure.

You looked up to him with tears in your eyes. He smiled, crouched down your level and patted your head, “There, there, little one. Hush now.” He carried you and started to caress your hair. 

Little by little, you were calmed down my the soothing feeling and eventually, you fell asleep in his arms.

________________________________

“Since when did we allow that child to be here?” Sebek asked angrily as he glared at your small figure.

You hid behind Lilia’s leg while holding his uniform tighter as you’re eyes started to tear up.

“No, now, Sebek. You’re scaring her,” Lilia said.

“Oh my. What’s with all the commotion?”

“Young master,” Sebek bowed at Malleus.

“Greetings, Sebek, Lilia,” Malleus greeted the two. Then his eyes fell upon your frightened figure.

He looks at you and smiled. You slowly went out of your hiding spot, which was behind Lilia’s leg, and walked towards him. You stared at him for a few seconds and realized that he’s a good person. That and you’re quite fascinated with his horns. You extend your arms towards him and said, “Up, up.”

Lilia smiled, “Looks like the little lady wants you to carry her.”

“The nerve of-”

“I don’t mind” Malleus said, cutting of Sebek, as he carried you right into his arms. You giggled as you tried to reach for his horns.

Malleus chuckled at your gesture, “Now, now, little one. Do you really want to touch my horns?”

Sebek gritted his teeth since Malleus is allowing you to do so. Take not that he can’t really bear to see you treat Malleus like that even if you are just a child.

“Anyways, what’s this child of man doing here?” Malleus asked Lilia, still carrying you in his arms.

“The Headmaster practically gave her to me and assigned me to be her guardian along with this raccoon too,” Lilia answered as he showed Malleus Grimm, who he’s holding by his fur.

“Let go of me!” Grimm squirmed out of Lilia’s grasp but with no luck.

“I see,” Malleus said, “Well then, little one. What’s your name?”

“[First Name]!”,  You answered, “What are your names, misters?”

“Misters?!” Sebek exclaimed, “I’ll have you know that-”

“It’s fine,” Malleus said to Sebek, “I’m Malleus. That is Sebek. And the one who brought you here is Lilia.”

“Mally, Seb and Lily?” You tilted your head.

“If that’s you wish to call us and please do so,” Malleus said while Sebek’s jaw dropped that flies can get inside of it. Lilia just smiled at the nickname.

“Anyways, it’s night time. You’re going to need to sleep.”

________________________________

“Are you sure I can sleep on the bed?” You asked.

“Yes,” Malleus answered.

“With you?”

“Of course. Why not?”

“You’re so nice, Mally! Nicer than my own parents!” You said.

Malleus raised an eyebrow, “Care to tell me about your parents?”

“Mama and Papa often argue while I get caught in between. Whenever I disturb their arguments, I get punished. They locked me in a dark closet alone. But I still love them no matter what,” You said as you smiled.

Malleus admired you. Despite you’re being treated trash by your parents, you still love them and you still find a way to smile.

________________________________

“Lily!” You hugged his leg. Lilia smiled as he patted your head.

“How are you today, [First Name]?” Lilia asked.

“I’m fine, Lily. Silvy is fun to annoy,” You said.

“Aren’t you mischievous, [First Name]?” Lilia said, giving her a teasing smile.

“I was so bored without you or Malleus,” You whined.

Yes, it has been months since you live here in Diasomnia along with Grimm. You lived a good life here...well minus the glares and lectures you’re receiving from Sebek. Otherwise, it’s nice.

Lilia would always sing you lullabies before you go to sleep. Malleus would often tell you stories and braid your hair. There was a time that you and Lilia messed up the kitchen, receiving an almost never ending scolding session from Sebek. Whenever you get nightmares, either Malleus or Lilia would comfort you. There were even times that the three of you would sleep together in the same room. You’ve melted their hearts. They treated you like a daughter, something your parents never did. You wished that this moment would last forever.

“Great news! We have found a way to bring you back to your own world? Isn’t it exciting?!” Crowley suddenly entered with a big smile on his face. Well, way to ruin the moment, Headmaster Crowley.

“What?!”

________________________________

“But I don’t want to go back home!” You cried on Malleus’s chest.

“Believe me, we don’t want to let you go either,” Malleus said, caressing your hair.

“Wah! I want to live here! I want to live with you, Lily, Silvy and even Seb! Wah!” You started to cry harder.

“We’ll try our best and talk to the headmaster about it,” Lilia said, rubbing your back. He then carried you like a baby and started to sing a lullaby once more. Soon, you fell asleep in Lilia’s arms. 

The two tucked you in bed and left you to sleep alone for the first time in Lilia’s room.

________________________________

“What should we do about this, Malleus?” Lilia asked.

“There’s only one thing we can do, Lilia,” Malleus answered Lilia, “You don’t mind if we do that?”

“Of course not. [First Name] is precious to me,” Lilia said, “Let’s go tomorrow to the headmaster along with [First Name].”

________________________________

“Are you taking me back home, Mally, Lily?” You asked the two as you started crying already.

“No, we’re not. We’re going to talk to the headmaster about it,” Malleus answered.

Lilia knocked on the headmaster’s door. Crowley soon responded and you lot entered his office.

“Ah! Mr. Draconia, Mr. Vanrouge and [First Name], this is rare,” Crowley said.

“Headmaster, please listen well what we have to say,” Malleus said.

“Go on then,” Crowley urge Lilia and Malleus to continue.

“We want to adopt [First Name] as our daughter!” The two said simultaneously.

“What?!”

“Eh?!” You stopped crying.

“Over the past months, we’ve bonded with [First Name] and we love her as if she’s one of our own,” Lilia said.

“We will not let you take her back home,” Malleus added.

“Mally, Lily,” You stared at the two parent figures in your life.

“W-Well...that is a dilenma. Surely, [First Name] would like to-”

“No! I don’t want to go home!” You yelled, “I want to stay with Mally and Lily! I love them! They’re my papas!”

“We rest our case,” Malleus said.

Crowley sighed, “Very well then. I won’t return her back to her own world. I’ll even let her stay here in Night Raven for I am graciously kind. However you two will be responsible for her. Understood?”

“Yes, sir,” The two responded.

________________________________

“Yay! I get to be with you forever!” You cheered as you hugged both of their legs.

They looked at you and then at each other and smiled. You love them and they love you. Nothing matters anymore in your old world. This is your world now.

BONUS SCENE:

“Meanie Sebby! Gimme some cookies!” You whined as you started to hit Sebek on his leg.

“Grrr! Darn you, [First Name]!” You’re luck that you’re young master’s daughter!” Sebek said.

“My, my, what’s going on here?” Malleus asked as he entered the kitchen along with Lilia.

“Meanie Sebby doesn’t want to give me cookies,” You pouted as you went to their side.

“Sebek, please give her some cookies,” Malleus ordered Sebek.

“Yes, young master,” Sebek said begrudgingly, annoyed that Malleus is on your side.

You stick your tongue out at Sebek while he just ranted silently.

Yup, you so don’t want to return to your old world. You can’t mess with Sebek if you go back. After all, annoying him is fun!

Potion class panic.

Just a silly one-off fic featureing Sebek Zigvolt and Jack Howl. Thank you to @holyheaven for letting me use his idea.

Words: 1901.

Potions was one of most interesting classes at Night Raven Collage. It taught the students how to use items that they would not usually use in other settings, such as cauldrons and exotic ingredients. It also educated them on how to defend themselves without the use of their wands. It was remarkable what you could put into a tiny potion bottle. Divus had noted that a good magician always has a potion or two up their sleeve, 'just in case' anything were to happen.

In all honestly, they were quite handy. If you were defenceless and needed to run away from battle, just use a mist potion to distract your opponent as you made a safe escape. If you were facing a powerful enemy and were seconds away from death, you better hope you packed a healing elixir, otherwise... Well, you get the point.

The potion class for the first years was more tame, focusing on introducing the students slowly to the dangers of the magical liquids. Instead of throwing them into the deep end immediately, Crowley offered a calmer experience. Things really got exciting in the second year, but we are not here for that. 

Students were paired up in teams of two, preparing a special potion set out by Divus Crewel, the potions teacher. Don't let his love of fashion fool you. Even though he may not look it, he is one of the most powerful potion masters at Night Raven. The potion they were preparing today was a weak transmutation potion. Divus warned that any misdemeanours when making this would earn a detention, as well as a stern talking to from Mozus. As such, everyone was on their best behaviour. Sebek was practising his own work, using the scales of mermaids, unicorn blood, and the hair of a phoenix to create his elixir. It was almost complete, all he had to do next was to stir and let it simmer for a few minuets. In all honestly, he didn't know what to do once he created it. He had no need for this potion, he could cast a transformation spell himself. Perhaps he could gift it to Malleus? Would he enjoy such a gift? He was already powerful enough, giving him something as trivial as this would be considered nothing but a trinket. But maybe he would like the thought?

Sebek was too busy in his own thoughts to notice another student carrying a few too many bottles. They fumbled around between their fingers before eventually letting one slip, and sending it cascading towards the floor. It shattered upon impact, sending a marvellous crash throughout the entire classroom before it was engulfed in a thick pink smoke. It was utter chaos. No one could see and inch in front of their face. A chorus of coughing and confused cries could be heard as students tried to swat the smoke away, opening windows and using text books to clear the room. "Is everyone alright?" Divus called as he batted the pink mist away with his free hand.

Once the mist has dispersed, everyone looked around, eager to see whether or not it had any effect. Potions class could be disastrous if something went wrong. It could be as small as turning a desk into a piece of cake, or as big as accidentally summoning an almighty fire demon hell bent on destroying the entire school. Thanks, Floyd.

But as the students searched around the classroom, they were disappointed at the lack of change. Everything seemed to be in place. Every potion bottle was securely where it was left, and not a singe desk had been transmuted into a terrible beast. There was a calm silence that lay over the students, letting out breaths of relief as they settled once again. 

That was until the entire class had their attention drawn as the sound of another glass shattering filled the air. Simultaneously they turned in the direction of one student, who was standing next to a broken bottle filled with pink shimmery liquid, accompanied by a long and scaly crocodile tail. At first, Sebek was taken aback. He hadn't realised a crocodile had made its way into the school. He jumped back, surprised when he realised the tail was following him wherever he went. How did a crocodile even get in here? He turned himself around, trying to get a glimpse of the creature. But wherever he was facing, the crocodile seemed to be right behind. At this point, he seemed to have connected the dots. A mild panic started to build up in his chest, which seemed to affect the tail as well, as it started to flail wildly. Some students took the initiative to stand back, far away from the manic tail, while others attempted to stifle a laugh, amused by the tails antics.

With one wave of his hand Divus silenced the group of youngsters. His footsteps echoed through the room as he sauntered across the class, stopping to take a peek at the newly grown tail. It was quite the sight. Reminiscing that of a real reptile tail, it swished back and forth under his gaze. "How peculiar." He hummed. After a moment of inspecting it, he walked back over to his desk, where he took out an old purple book, carved with strange markings. He flipped through the pages before settling on one towards the middle. "Not to worry, I'll have an antidote ready later. You'll just have to wait it out until then."

The tail was going to be a challenge. Even though it only came down to the back of his knees, it was plenty powerful, and could cause some serious damage if he wasn't careful. He needed to get this sorted quickly. With this tail causing problems, he wouldn't be able to protect Malleus properly! Even the thought of not being there when Malleus needed him most was enough to send Sebek into a blind panic. His emotions also seemed to affect the tails behaviour, as it started to flail wildly again, knocking over several more potion bottles, sending them crashing towards the floor.

"Bad pub!" Divus called from the other side of the class as he stormed over. Sebek stood still, fearing that his behaviour would leave a bad mark on his record. When he eventually made his way over, Divus took Sebek by the collar as he lead him outside the classroom, treating him like a new puppy who had torn up his favourite cushion. "I advise you to stay out of trouble until I sort this out." With one hand on the door frame, and the other placed on his temple, Divus let out one final request before slamming the door in Sebeks face.

"Now, sit. And stay."

Sebek walked along the cobbled path of Night Raven, letting his tail swish lazily behind him. Ever since he left the classroom, it calmed down, no longer feeling the need to rampage among the potion bottles. Originally, he had planned to stay put like Divus told him to, but Crowley was patrolling the halls that day, and advised that he take a walk around the school to let off some steam. It seemed to be working.

He let out a small sigh as he pinched the bridge of his nose. He sincerely hoped that Divus wouldn't be mad at him. Surely, he would understand it was an honest mistake. He also hoped the other students would forgive him, he didn't mean to cause a scene. With any luck, they would be able to continue the class without any more disruptions.

"The hell happened to you?" Jacks voice cut through Sebeks inner monologue, and drew his attention towards the Savanaclaw student sitting idly by himself on a nearby bench. The white wolf gestured to the newly grown tail, studying it intently. He had seen students with similar features, those being from the reptile family, ranging from lizard tails, snake like features, and even tortoise shells. However, he knew Sebek wasn't one of them. And seeing him with one was... weird, to say the least.

"There was an... accident." Sebek confessed before telling his friend what had transpired in the class before. The stress seemed to be getting to him, as when he explained all the horrors of having said tail, it started to swing again, smacking into whatever poor soul was walking past them. Jack grumbled as he watched Sebek try to get a grip on his own tail, flustered and fumbling around. It looked like a dog trying to chance its own tail, and failing miserably. Of all the students here, the savanaclaw ones were the ones most experienced with having extra limbs. Jack was reminded of his own tail, remembering how hard it was to control when he was younger. For some reason, that seemed to piss him off more.

"Christ, can you get a grip on that thing?" Jack called out, his hand instinctively gripping onto Sebeks new tail and keeping it in place. It was against the Savanaclaw rules to grab another students tail, but Sebek wasn't in Savanaclaw, and this situation was already getting out of hand. His tail seemed to become even more panicked as it squirmed under his tight hold. Sebek was no different, getting agitated by this fact. The new nerve endings in his tail seemed to scream at him, compelling him to fight back.

"H-hey!" Without thinking, Sebek grabbed onto Jacks already heightened tail, causing it to bush up even more. At first, Sebek had grabbed Jack's tail as a way to get back at him. An eye for an eye, or in this case, a tail for a tail. But as he met the others gaze, he could practically feel the atmosphere change around them. 

Canines bared, ears heightened, and eyes glaring with animistic ferocity, Jack seemed ready and raring to pounce at any given moment. "Let. Go." Jack barked as he stared Sebek down with frightening intensity. It didn't take much for Sebek to match Jack's bloodthirsty stare. He was already quite intimidating without even trying, now he looked like he could take down Malleus with a single glare. "You first." Both males seemed to be increasingly reluctant to back down first, each of them having individual pride that they were not willing to put aside. 

They stood there for a moment, glaring each other down, growls starting to emerge in their throats. It wasn't until the sound of someone clearing their own throat that they realised they weren't alone. Another student had stumbled upon the scene, and was trying to process what was happening. "Divus is looking for you, said something about an antidote?" As the student spoke, they couldn't help notice the strange situation they had walked upon. Their face furrowed in confusion as they let out a shaky question, "Is that a tail?"

Both men immediately let go of the other and straightened up, brushing off the remaining hostility that lingered in the air. Sebek coughed to clear any more awkwardness before speaking. "Thank you for reminding me, I had better be on my way." He turned back to Jack, having the courtesy to at least bid him a farewell. Jack only turned away and let out a small growl, still mad about having his tail grabbed. Sebek made a mental note to apologise for that later.
