[mochinomnoms]

This is a very specific thing I said to my friends so if they follow your blog then they would know who I am but the whole thing of buy one get two free deal came from something that is common in my country where in local bazaars they sell these showering kits that came with shampoo, conditioner and a bottle of liquid soap my mind clearly infected with twst could only think about the octotrio being one of these packages Azul is the soap, and the twins are the shampoo and conditioner and the three of the products are wrapped with tape so you are forced to get the three which is oddly cute to me but onto the main thing!

Came up with another octotrio polycule idea since yuu represents a shrimp in Floyd's weird lenses of seeing the world sometimes if done intentionally or not you tend to clean up the twins or patch them up even fixing up their (poorly put on) uniform Jade got dirt in his face when he was in a mountain trip? Come here you careless eel and wipe out the dirt then you can talk about your new findings BUT WASH YOUR HANDS FIRST

Floyd decided to do parkour or maybe he just dumped a whole smoothie on himself because he was hot and used the drink to cool off and there you go, disinfect the wounds or scratches and putting silly cute band-aids (one time he got mad that his favorite design was out and you placed a mushroom design band aid since he still needed one, remind yourself to go stack up with the band-aids before Jade goes and sniffles about his dear brother using his favorite band-aids)

I am thinking that since the twins are a bit much more affectionate or aren't as busy as Azul is, you are doing one of your "Nurse/cleaner shirmp" (Floyd gave them the name) on one of the tweels and you guys were in Azul's office so he sighs trying to get attention he wishes that he also got his own nurse/cleaner shirmp affections if he doesn't say it out loud he can and will break his pen/ink flask and oh no! His gloves are completely ruined!! Clearly coaxing you into helping him with the mess or when he does voice his wishes about it when you two/three are present the tweels are quick to tease him about it "I thought that octopuses didn't go to cleaner shrimp stations?" or "Would you be able to provide protection in exchange? I thought that octopuses weren't predators" Okay that was rude, it is on. Of course that he can protect the shrimpy and if octopuses didn't go to cleaner shirmp stations then he would change that! Overall silliness and sweetness (They are having a discussion about planning to surprise you with a visit to the coral sea and going to visit their parents!!) they might turn almost anything into a friendly/loving competition and you are trapped in them but they are still so sweet and caring for you and each other 10/10 definitely a unique dynamic but awesome either way

(the same anon forcing their brain to fabricate more octotrio polycule ideas)

I think Floyd takes the most delight in seeing you care for them like an actual shrimp. He thinks it's endearing and will definitely make efforts to get dirty or mildly hurt so that you'll attend to him.

The other two have their own nicknames for you: Jade calls you and Azul My Pearl/Darling while Azul calls you Angelfish and the twins Dear(s).

It's Azul's way of showing affection, as he is quite reserved with his affections, at least until you're all in private. He does envy the liberal affections that the twins have with you, Floyd in particular doesn't care much about what others think, and Jade generally is more reserved than his brother, but will still give you chaste kisses when saying hello/goodbye. Azul, at most, will hold hands and maybe tuck a loose strand of hair behind your ears, something he often does during quiet moments.

It may be silly, but he gets a little jealous at seeing y'all share PDA when he's still getting used to the new dynamic. So he's coaxing you to come help him clean up! Look at his hands, they're absolutely stained with ink! Won't you please help him clean up Angelfish? 🥺

It backfires as the twins also take the opportunity to “care” for Azul. Instead of letting you fuss over him quickly, they decide that this is a sign that he's much too tired to continue working, look at the mess he made! It's time to close his office early and cuddle pile in his bedroom!! Jade's making the extra effort to run a bath in the absurdly large tub in Azul's private bathroom, while Floyd is running around collecting pillows and blankets to make a nest/fort. You do your do diligence and help Jade tend to him, causing him to get more and more flustered.

The night ends with the twins teasing the silly little octopus for wanting some tending from the shrimp. They're complaining that he never asks for affection like that from them!!! Eels can be gentle too, we promise Azul~

Part 1 (Am I Feeling Love?)

Part 2 (Protective)

Part 3A & Part 3B (Poor Unfortunate Souls)

Characters: Azul Ashengrotto X F!Reader

Word Count: 9,105

Synopsis: A chance for redemption comes in the form of a wish…

Author’s Notes: Ok, here we go. I received an anonymous message in my inbox for the next part of the Yandere!Soulmate series and I was actually going to work on it - but with the arrival of GloMas, working on the next part of ‘Raison D’être,’ wanting to finish “Weren’t You Aware, Angelfish?”, AND the holidays, time got away from me and I forgot about Scarabia’s segment for a short while. 

However, because you all seem to enjoy this and want to know if the tako has redeemed himself - I figured I would work to get this part done. Now, warning - Pompefiore’s part is going to take a bit of time to complete because I will have to wiggle my way through my memory bank and replay a few parts of it (which is approx 76 chapters in length for those players who haven’t made it that far into the game yet) since I’m working so deep into Ignihyde’s chapter right now (which is a doozy - I’m still in chapter 67-tower 1, oof help).

This one is also going to be split into three parts - I promise it will not be a long wait for the second & third parts as this is my Christmas gift to all of my readers <3

Thank you all for your continued support!

Warnings are as follows: yandere behaviors, manipulation, imprisonment, & hypnosis

I’m in the mood, to help you dude

You ain’t never had a friend like me.

***

It had been weeks since the last overblot incident… and just as long since Azul last saw you.

He sat in his office, looking over paperwork for the last quarter and rubbing his brow with worry.

The profits had started to steadily decrease following his overblot, causing the Monstro Lounge to slowly suffer the loss, like an infection slowly eating away a mer’s life. He had no one really to blame but himself for that… Azul had lost control, let his obsession get out of hand and had hurt the people closest to him.

Jade… Floyd… you.

Azul let out another large sigh and set the report down, taking his glasses off and rubbing his face. He had considered going back to the Coral Sea for holiday, but was unable to due to two reasons; one, the ice floes would’ve made the journey too dangerous to travel alone - especially since Jade and Floyd had already prepared to stay at NRC for the holidays, and two… you were still here.

Not in Octavinelle where Azul had wanted you to be, but in a rundown shack on the school property.

The building had been a dorm, once upon a time, but ghosts had moved in and scared the students to the point that the building was deemed ‘unsafe.’ However, with your charms and personality, the ghosts were easily persuaded and welcomed you in with open arms - though Azul had a sneaky suspicion that both the headwardens of Savanaclaw and Heartslabyul had likely persuaded the otherworldly spirits in exchange for access to both of their dorms. Regardless, with you no longer in Octavinelle and now at the mercy of the headmage’s “generous” nature, Azul could only watch from the shadows as you now tended to the school property in a janitorial role.

Azul leaned back in his chair, his thoughts plagued by you before an obnoxious ringing noise filled the office.

He grumbled, picking the phone up, “Monstor Lounge, this is Azul speaking.”

“Hello baby, how are you?” the familiar voice of his mother on the other end made Azul jump in surprise.

“Mother,” Azul coughed, “Hello - I apologize I hadn’t had a chance to call you. We’ve been busy lately.”

“Oh, I know, sweetheart,” his mother answered, “It’s been busy here too… but everything’s been calming down since the ice floes came - though I was surprised to see your letter that you were considering coming home for the holidays.”

‘Shit…’ Azul had completely forgotten about that - when (Y/N) had lived in the Octavinelle at the beginning of the year, Azul had entertained the idea of potentially inviting her to his home for the holiday, slowly and suringly getting her accustomed to the idea of staying with him - although it would prove to be a difficult task, especially now.

“However, I’m assuming that you changed plans at the last minute,” his mother continued.

“Y-yes, I was indeed planning on coming… however, Jade and Floyd both decided to stay behind so I chose to stay as well,” Azul answered, the lie slipping easily off his silver tongue, “Someone has to keep those two in line, after all.”

His mother snickered, “Don’t be saying that in front of their father though. Sevens knows what the moray will do if you say anything like that.”

Azul nodded, clearing his throat, “Um, well… What's going on with you, then? The restaurant still alright? How’s Finn?”

“Finn’s well - busy as always,” his mother answered, “Business has been getting better - hired several new staff members as well… a few sweet mers around your age, Zully.”

Azul rolled his eyes, “Mother… we’ve had this talk. I’m… not interested.”

“You might not be, but it will happen one day,” his mother’s voice was calm and soothing before she sighed on the end of the phone, “However… I have a sneaky feeling that you’re still upset about what I told you all those years ago.”

Azul bit his lip, answering, “Of course not… Soulmates? That’s ridiculous.”

“Azul…” his mother’s voice turned into a scolding tone, “There are plenty of fish out there - I know you’re still pretty young to be thinking about it, considering a mer’s life is longer than most, but shorter than a fae’s… but I only want you to be happy.”

“I am, mother,” Azul tried to smile, “I’m content where I am - I’ve gotten stronger, my business is growing, and… I’ve learned so much.”

“Perhaps, but allow me to give you a little insight - it’s something I learned long ago,” his mother prompted, “Happiness, though may be defined as ‘the state of joy or contentment,’ is typically filled by three main parts of life; success, dedication, and personal. Dedication and success go hand in hand with each other - if you work hard and are dedicated, you achieve success - even if the tasks prove to be difficult to the point that you might fail over and over again. Personal can mean time for yourself - spending time with your hobbies or doing what you love… spending time with those you care about even.”

Azul listened to his mother’s words, thinking.

“I know that you are successful and you’re dedicated,” his mother continued, “But you won’t achieve happiness if you just focus on those two things - take time for yourself now and again, look for stronger connections within your friendships… and look for someone that will want to support you and you support them.”

“I… I think I understand…” Azul answered, “I’ll… take your words into consideration.”

“I hope so - your grandmother taught me that when I was still a little octo fry many years ago,” his mother answered, a teasing tone caught in her voice.

Azul couldn’t help but smile, “Yes… Nanna always did know what was best.”

“Yes, she did, still does even… Well, I should probably let you go, then - you have a lot of stuff going on there,” his mother let out a sigh, “Just remember… I love you, baby. Merry Christmas.”

“I love you too… momma. Merry Christmas and I’ll see you at the end of the year.”

“I’ll hold you to that, Zully. Stay safe.”

Azul smiled and hung the phone up, sitting back in his chair and looking up at the ceiling. 

“Finding that so-called ‘other half’ is like - well - like the story of the mermaid princess and her longing to be with a human. It’s a rare occurrence that only happens once in a millennium if not longer. Anyone can be happy with or without their soulmate, Azul. There’s no reason you should go to such lengths to be with someone who may not even exist…”

Azul shook his head at the memory of that day years ago - he wanted to forget… but sevens knows he couldn’t forget you.

A sudden loud crash had Azul bolting upright, his features twisting in annoyance. As far as he knew, the only ones in the lounge were Jade and Floyd… which could only mean one thing. 

Trouble.

“Those two morons…” Azul gritted his teeth, standing from his chair, “If I catch the lounge in a disarray again…”

He grabbed his jacket, tossing it over his shoulders, before placing his hat upon his head, the magestone pen morphing into the headwarden’s silver octopus topped cane. He hurried from his office and headed into the lounge.

Entering the lounge, Azul’s eyes widened at the sight.

The lounge was damaged - several tables and chairs were overturned, marred by huge cracks and scratches while lamps lay in pieces on the floor, the glass orbs scattered into a thousand fragments on the carpeted flooring and the magestones cracked and shattered as well. Azul’s eyes narrowed on Jade and Floyd’s figures, but realized they weren’t alone after all. Several students from the Scarabia dorm were there as well, their wands out and at the ready - pointing them at Jade and Floyd, who seemed to be guarding something on the floor.

Azul’s eyes widened in surprise at seeing Kalim’s magic carpet as well as Grim hiding behind the remaining two members of Octavinelle - and they weren’t alone.

You were there as well, cowering behind Jade and Floyd’s intimidating heights as the Scarabia students glared daggers at you.

“There’s no escape for you now, thieves!” 

“Surrender quietly!”

“Mrow?!” Grim held his paws up, “You chased us all the way here?! You guys are seriously stubborn, you know that?”

Azul remained quiet for a moment, his eyes shifting to look you over - noticing how you had one arm close to your body. Were you hurt?

Azul’s eyes narrowed as he approached, his shoes echoing in the lounge as his stern voice addressed the situation, “What is all the commotion at this late hour?”

The students turned to look at Azul, one of them speaking quietly, “Y-you’re… Azul Ashengrotto, the housewarden of Octavinelle!”

“Would you care to explain what is going on?” Azul asked calmly, moving to stand in front of you with Jade and Floyd behind him.

“It’s none of Octavinelle’s business,” another student tsked, “Just hand over the two of them quietly.”

Azul crossed his arms over his chest, tilting his head as he eyed you and Grim out of the corner of his eye, “Now that I’m looking closer at it - it appears to be (Y/N) and Grim sprawled out on our floor, quivering and covered in dust. Heh - I almost thought they were a pair of dust cloths.”

“Azul, please,” Azul met your gaze, “save us with your spirit of benevolence.”

“Hmm…” Azul turned back to the group of Scarabia before him.

“If you refuse to hand them over, you’ll be blamed for their wrongdoings as well,” the student warned.

“Hey - are ya yankin’ my tail here?!” Floyd’s eyes widened dangerously, his teeth peering out from behind his lips, “Who do ya think yer talkin’ to?!”

“No fighting of any kind is permitted in the Monstro Lounge,” Azul kept his arms crossed over his chest, his focus reshifting to address the situation at hand, “This is a place for gentlemen.”

“What was that? Are you interfering?” one of the students asked, “Fine, we’ll just do this the hard way.”

“Hmph, I think it’s time we asked these ill-mannered patrons to leave,” Azul growled, clicking his tongue in annoyance, “Jade. Floyd. Show them the door.”

The eel twins grinned as they moved quickly, going after the Scarabia students like the set of predators that they were. Azul was quick to move and cover (Y/N), his overcoat covering your form to protect you from the fighting, “Don’t look, my dear, I do not wish for you to see such behavior.”

“Azul - I’ve seen worse,” your voice rattled him to the core as he huffed.

“I... don’t need the reminder.”

It didn’t take long for the Scarabia students to fall back, Jade and Floyd repocketing their pens.

“Go on an’ scatter, ya bunch of minnows!” Floyd laughed eagerly.

“We’ll be eagerly awaiting your next visit to our lounge,” Jade smiled.

As the last of the students disappeared, Grim jumped for joy, “Mya-haha! We did it! You see that?! That’s what you get, you bunch of jerks!”

“We, Grim? I think you mean they - Floyd and Jade - did it,” you ask before shaking your head and turning toward the trio, “Thank you, all three of you - I don’t want to think what they would’ve done if you hadn’t stepped in.”

“Thanks are unneeded, my dear,” Azul answered, standing and offering his hand, “However, I’m afraid we’ll have to bill you for repair fees for the tables and chairs - not to mention the lamps and assorted dishwear that was damaged in that fight. Not to mention our own labor rates, since we were dragged into this affair.”

“WHAT?! You’re charging us for that?!” Grim asked, throwing his paws up in the air.

“Surely it’s a small price to pay for us rescuing the both of you from the inky depths of peril? After all, (Y/N) did ask for my spirit of benevolence.”

“Azul, please,” you asked quietly, “There’s a reason that the Scarabia students were after us.”

“I’m assuming it has something to do with Kalim’s magic carpet.”

“... Not really,” you answer, “We were being held hostage.”

Azul frowned, not liking the word one bit, “Explain, (Y/N).”

***

Azul muddled over what you had just told him, Grim piping up every so often to include details about the Scarabia situation to add more information as the cunning octopus thought deeply. As Azul thought, his eyes kept shifting to you, his thoughts going deeper into self-loathing; if you had remained in Octavinelle, none of this would have happened - you would’ve been safe, not having to walk to an oasis down and back again every morning before even eating, or sleeping in a closet under lock and key, or even doing battles with other students of magic when you couldn’t even cast a spell yourself.

His poor little angelfish…

Azul’s eyes widened, an idea appearing in his mind… a chance of a lifetime had just been given to him and he would be damned to let it go to waste.

A knowning smile spread across his features, “...It sounds like we should go to their aid.”

“Myra?! Did you hit your head or something when I wasn’t looking?!” Grim asked.

“Of course not!” Azul feigned harm, lifting his gloved hand to his chest, “I’ll have you know, my dear Grimmy, that the last incident forced me to reflect on my greed. I came out a changed man!”

“Oh, really?” You asked, folding your arms across your chest, “Care to explain?”

“I decided to contribute to the school as a whole, in honor of the Sea Witch’s spirit of benevolence,” Azul explained, his features turning coy, “It’s common knowledge that the housewardens are typically the ones their students go to in times of need or struggle - even the vice wardens are responsible for that as well. However, the power has to be shared equally between both the house and vice wardens - and Scarabia’s all over the place. It’s faced with a crisis now and my own classmate is in need of help - I can hardly ignore them in their time of need.”

You watched Jade and Floyd give each other knowing smiles before the twins looked at Azul, Jade asking, “What is the plan?”

“Here’s my idea,” Azul proposed, “The five of us head to Scarabia tomorrow - we’ll go under the guise that we are returning Kalim’s carpet as well as offering assistance with the dorm’s studies, this will ensure our stay especially since Octavinelle did overwhelmingly well on their finals before break…”

“No thanks to your study guides,” Grim huffed.

“Grim,” You warned.

Azul coughed and continued, “Once we’ve secured our spot within Scarabia, we’ll be able to do a bit of sneaking around to figure out what’s really going on.”

“And I’m assuming you have an idea on how to do so?” Jade asked.

“Let’s get to that point before we make any rash decisions,” Azul answered.

“I think that is a wonderful idea,” you agreed.

“(Y/N)?! Are you crazy?!” Grim asked, “We can’t go back there!”

“Grim, we really have no other options,” you turned to the feline demon, “We’ve tried contacting the Headmage, the other students can’t get into the school because the dark mirror is closed off, we have no way of contacting Riddle or Leona either… Azul’s plan is the best we have right now. Personally, I’d rather not go back, but with the way things are looking for Kalim…”

“You’re afraid there’s going to be another overblot, aren’t you, pearl?” Jade asked.

Azul blinked, the thought hadn’t even crossed his mind. Yes, Kalim’s behavior was erratic, but it couldn’t be enough for the headwarden to go into an overblot… would it?

“I’m afraid so,” you admit, looking over at Azul, “I noticed that… when things got a little out of control, someone overblotted. I can’t bare to see another student go through that, much less a housewarden again. I’d like to try and prevent it from happening again, if possible.”

Azul nodded, “No worries, angelfish - I’ll make sure mine was the last one you saw.”

You give the housewarden a small smile of relief - thankful that he seemed to understand.

Azul remembered during his blot how the memories of his childhood came forward; the root cause of his pain and suffering that eventually became his thirst for power that festered and grew until it snapped - and you had seen it all. Whatever this strange magical gift was and how you received it, Azul was certain that it was your own form of unique magic - one that was so powerful that it may even make Malleus Draconia afraid if he knew about it; the power to look into one’s past and see everything that shaped them into who they eventually became was strong powerful magic indeed - but, of course, Azul didn’t want anyone else to know about it, considering he was victim number three to the overblot crisis that appeared to be happening this year.

Azul reaches out, offering his hand to you, “(Y/N), as headwarden of Octavinelle - allow myself and Jade and Floyd to help you and Grim solve the mystery of Kalim’s strange behavior. I’m certain the five of us plus Jamil will be able to ease Kalim’s troubles and bring back the peace Scarabia so desperately needs. Do we have a deal?”

You look at his hand, the memory of the first day you met him and the day you lost your legs both playing in your mind - but what choice did you have? You look at him and take his hand, squeezing it.

“Promise - this will make us even?”

“Indeed. I promise.”

Hi I would like to request the Twist dorm leaders with their s/o forcing them to get (or just to go with them) to get snake bite peirceing!

Snake Bites

dorm leaders with an s/o who has snake bites!

cw- piercings, blood mention, fluff, a lil insecurity, all around wholesome, gn! reader

( I couldn't find a good snake bites gif, so take Moomin)

Riddle

Riddle definitely grew up thinking piercings were unsightly or unrefined, but he quickly discarded that thought process seeing you enchanting you looked with your snake piercings

If your snake piercings are new, know that this boy will have you on your salt water regiment strictly, he will not see you suffer through infections!

He is definitely a fan of golden jewelry, and he may gift some to you on your birthday

“Dearest, remember to clean your piercings before classes today!”

Leona

Leona thinks your piercings are so cool, I mean look at him, the guy dresses like a grunge cowboy

If your piercing is new, he’ll be a little curious, asking if you bled or if it hurt, he cares about your well being

He loves lip rings, he thinks you look great with them

I feel like Leona would love having body mods, but really can’t because of his royal status, so he’ll be 100% supportive of yours

“The rings look better, more outgoing.”

Azul 

Azul has learned from his own childhood to not judge others based on appearance, especially not his own s/o. He likes your piercings for the way that they differentiate you from the other students, individualism is his bread and butter after all!

If your piercing is new, he’ll be extra careful not to snag or bother it accidentally, remembering to hug you with a tilt

In his own opinion, lip studs are better than rings, he especially likes the shiny bejeweled kind

“You truly are sparkling, my treasure.”

Kalim

Kalim is not unfamiliar with piercings, his own ears are pierced! He loves having an s/o with piercings/ body mods, because it gives him another excuse to spoil you rotten

If your piercing is new, he’ll have trouble not being as affectionate as he usually is, but he’ll manage

He buys you so much jewelry, he absolutely loves just surprising you with new jewels, and the price tag is the least of his worries

“I finally found the artisan who made my earrings, and I got him to make you matching snake bites.”

Vil

Vil adores your piercings, specifically if you let him give you little makeovers

If your piercing is new, he’ll keep you on a strict regimen, there will be un unsightly bumps, bleeding or sore skin on his watch

His most favorite thing to do when styling your snake bites is adding simple silver rings, and matching them with silver eyeshadow

“Now, liebling, keep your head still so I don’t spread the pigment to your nose.”

Idia

He thinks you look so awesome, like the rebellious character in a video game, which is why he’s really excited to ask you about your piercings

He’ll be a little surprised by all the care you have to put into maintaining a piercing after getting it, and he’ll admire you for making the commitment to your look

Idia gets the issue of getting weird looks, so he always knows how to uplift you when your feeling down

“So, you have to soak it in salt water two times a day? What happens if you wake up late?”

Malleus

Oh humans and their delightful little arts and crafts!

He finds himself enamored with the piercing process, asking you so many questions about the pain levels and how often you have to take care of it

Malleus loves your piercings so much, probably because he feels like you match him aesthetically with them

“Lilia had piercings just like those in the 2000s, don’t tell him, but in my own opinion you are far better suited to them.”

This is a scene/emo! Lilia stan account. (maybe a future fic idea?)

[cloudcountry]

hey heh if you're still down for it may j get one order of eel-

"Floyd+Comfort or Understanding "

you can get all the eel you want. we have so much in stock. too much actually. please take the eel. he bites btw.

gonna write understanding since comfort was requested twice AJHSFDAJHSD

FLOYD LEECH + UNDERSTANDING (1k event details)

~~~~~

“Shrimpyyyy.” Floyd whines, collapsing on your lap.

You immediately snap your textbook shut and look down at him, gasping when you see the long scrape running from his wrist to his elbow.

“What did you do?!” you shriek, “We need to get you first aid! Hold on, I’ll be right back—”

Despite you saying you’d be right back, Floyd follows you into Ramshackle with a pout. He’s cradling his injured arm and you know he’s had it worse in the ocean because he’s told you stories of sharks and poisonous fish and even Azul’s venom, but there will always be a part of you that wants to take care of him.

He hisses when you start cleaning the wound, but for someone so erratic he doesn’t move. He must like being pampered like this, you think, especially since he’s still clinging to you like you’re some sort of safety blanket.

“I was doing parkour, right?” Floyd whines, “And then a little guppy got it my way! He didn’t move fast enough so I kneed him in the head and he sent me flying into the pavement. Ran away before I could give him a good squeeze.”

“Please be more careful.” you plea, wrapping the gauze around his arm, “This is a really bad scrape and the last thing we want is for it to get infected.”

You can tell Floyd’s about to spew something about how “being careful” is boring, but you kiss the gauze you just finished applying and suddenly he’s silent.

“I know you like to have fun, but next time just pretend he’s another obstacle. Jump on his head or something, I don’t care.” you murmur against his bandages, and now it’s your turn to cradle his arm like it’s precious, “You’re precious to me, okay? I want you safe.”

“Shrimpyyyyy.” he whines again, slumping onto your shoulder, and you know that means he thinks you’re precious, too.

Hi i love your blog and your an amazing writer. I hope it’s ok for me to make a request if you aren’t busy. Can you please write Jamil, Vil and Azul’s (+ anyone you want to add)) reaction to a S/o that can transfer physical wounds from a person to themselves

Aw, thank you so much! And yes it is very much okay to request!

It really surprised him when he saw you transfer someone else's wounds onto yourself, and he was also worried as well.

•Although it gave him a shock, he was more worried that you were gonna be infected if the wound that you just transferred onto yourself wasn't properly healed.

•After you said farewell to the person, you were immediately lectured by Jamil on how to be more careful when it came down to your own abilities.

•You were surprised that he saw the whole thing but told him not to worry! Since you can take care of yourself and he doesn't need to worry, besides, the wounds are minor so it's no big deal!

•Of course even after that he still attended your wounds so they wouldn't have an infection.

•And Kalim is also very impressed and Jamil always has to try and tell Kalim not to pressure you too much.

•Although Jamil was very surprised when he learned about your abilities, he was impressed but still worried about you! So try to lessen your abilities around him just so he wouldn't get a heart attack...

•Vil was quite impressed! Albeit shocked but still impress nonetheless.

•Of course Vil doesn't treat you any differently, no! Of course not! He is just worried that you overdo it, so don't overdo it for his sake and others. But mostly for him.

•Vil is like a Mother hen, he is quite protective and is always worried for you whenever you do your abilities!

•And he reminds you every now and then to take care of yourself and drink lots of water and not overdo it!

•He somewhat tells Rook to look after you and make sure you take care of yourself and that you wouldn't be too reckless with your abilities.

•Overall, Vil is calm about this! Just don't get yourself hurt in the process as well... or else you'll hear a lot of lectures coming from him to take care of yourself more often.

•He is amazed to say the least!

•At first, he kinda wanted to make it his but decided against it! And besides, you looked like you were enjoying yourself! Soo...

•Anyways, Azul is amazed and wants to learn more about your abilities and wishes to see more of your ability!

•You showed him an example when he accidentally injured himself and he saw the whole entire process in his eyes and felt all of his pain go away.

•He was surprised but also worried for you, so he tried to tend your wounds and you got a discount from the Lounge as well! Hooray!

•But fyi please be more careful with your abilities since Azul gets worried quite easily! So don't give him any more heart attacks... (Like the one time someone had a huge bruise and cut and you decided to transfer their wound onto yours, to say the least Azul was literally about to cry but tried to stay calm for your sake.)

•Overall Azul is worried and amazed by you! But please don't make him more worried than he already is...

And that is it! I hope you enjoyed this as much as I did! And I am sorry if it wasn't your exact expectations... I didn't have any much ideas and I am busy! So I hope you do understand!

It was too late when Azul realized how frail his own voice sounded…how vulnerable his blue eyes had been…how exposed his soul was to Jamil in that moment.  What a fool…what an utter fool Azul had been.

So I write a lot for funsies and TWST AUs with @eeveelution4567 that never see the light of day because we just focus on the drama between characters more than lore lol. For day one of AshenViper week I decided to share a bit of what I wrote for an Infection AU we had. It correlates with the prompt of the day! I REALLY like what I wrote so here's some of it. It's literally as any Infection AU would work, with the school being on lockdown and the infection turning peeps into crazy goobers yatta yatta. There is more i'm willing to share for maybe the Angst day that follows after this uwu. For now ENJOY THE OCTOPUS AND SNAKE BOYS.

Azul and Jamil were already tired when they made it safely to the alchemy lab. They made sure to hold themselves up there as securely as possible, rearranging furniture and making sure if anything got in that it wouldn't take them by surprise.

The plan currently was to wait about two days before going out and trying to scavenge what they could and hopefully figure out what exactly was happening. They had also planned to hopefully run into Vil and Crewel at some point. Those two WERE the queens of potion making afterall...as much as Azul really wanted to be the forefront of manufacturing a cure.

Azul had never seen Jamil so talkative and playful before. Jamil’s usual brand of ‘play’ was belittling him and taking jabs at every weakness he slipped up while Azul quickly tried to keep face. Most of the time, as they worked through possible potions and readings, they had talked about how the two of them were going to get so much praise and credit for figuring this out when everyone was too stupid and useless to.

Everyone would see the boundless intelligence of Jamil Viper and the endless resources of Azul Ashengrotto at full power. 

The world would quiver at their feet for eradicating a disease so quickly with such little resources while being still mages in school. It was fun. Imagining such a high honorable success. A success that would be too big for the Viper family to remain servants to the Al-Asims…a success that would put Ashengrotto on the radar of the most wealthy.

Their power would never be put into question again. They could be free….and happy…and bask in the fruits of their labors while sitting unbothered on top of the world.

On top of the world where no one could ever hurt them again. 

“Together?” Azul asked as looked into Jamil’s charcoal eyes with hope. They were worn and tired from the lack of sleep…and still he looked as beautiful and otherworldly as ever.

It was too late when Azul realized how frail his own voice sounded…how vulnerable his blue eyes had been…how exposed his soul was to Jamil in that moment. 

What a fool…what an utter fool Azul had been.

The mer flinched when he felt slender fingers intertwine with his own. Looking back at him were softened charcoal eyes…a genuine smile that sent a warmth into his soul. Jamil’s fingers tightened into Azul’s…expressing the same vulnerability Azul had shown.

Azul could see him. He could see through Jamil and right into his very heart and soul. The mutual desire to be with him.  Azul tightened his fingers with Jamil’s as he gave the other a sweet smile. 

“Together.” Jamil’s voice sang sweetly, confirming his want to be with Azul.

Azul couldn’t stop himself from leaning forward and taking Jamil’s lips into his own. A tender but passionate kiss. Jamil kisses back as well, allowing himself to fall into Azul and be swept into the sea witch’s embrace.

All it took for them to shut up and kiss already was the literal end of the world.

Omg apocalypse au 🤯

Having to choose which group(dorm) to take shelter, but that comes with a price...

Just wait till the repopulation part arrives

>:D I will share some basic thoughts about how each dorm would function!

Heartslabyul is very rule-oriented. Everyone has a job that they're expected to do so that the compound won't find itself swept up in chaos. Riddle is very good at keeping order within the group he leads, though sometimes his patience and restraint are tested when a certain few (Ace and Deuce) get on his nerves. Riddle is welcoming to all, but he's extremely cautious. After all, he can't risk letting anyone who may be infected with blot into this sanctuary. Trey and Cater are usually the ones who are permitted to lead a select few to scope out the nearby areas and go on supply runs. They probably encounter you on one of these runs and bring you back to Riddle when you beg for help.

Riddle has a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to disobedience. Everyone gets three strikes, and if you breach the third infraction you're thrown out and banned from the compound. He's ruthless when it comes to this rule, so Ace is always toeing the line of a third strike. You've come to his rescue more than once, which infuriates Riddle because he assumes you're taking Ace's side, when in reality you're just trying to save your friend from impending doom (not that you approve of his mischief in such an uncertain time). The outside world is nowhere near as safe as it is within the walls of the Heartslabyul compound. Ace would do well to remember that.

Deuce is more well-behaved, and so sometimes he'll join Trey or Cater on supply runs. He's well-versed in fighting, so he can hold his own in a physical fight. When it comes to magic, he's still improving, but he wants to help out in any way that he can. He looks up to Riddle greatly and wants to prove himself as someone worthy and strong. Ace likes to tease him a lot, but it's usually Deuce who reminds him that he ought to be more serious. Apocalypses are nothing to treat lightheartedly. One wrong move and you could lose everything.

- - -

Savanaclaw is not very rule-oriented. In fact, the only rule that's made abundantly clear is that you have to fight to survive. You're either weak or you're strong; there is no in between. Leona was made king of the compound after dethroning its previous leader. He'll let anyone into the compound so long as they can hold their own in a fight and are useful. This usually means a test of strength, whether physical or mental, and if you pass Leona will recognize your worth. Ruggie is usually in charge of supply runs and any other operations. Sometimes they'll gather; other times they'll steal from nearby groups and compounds. Jack doesn't approve of these methods; he thinks everyone should be given the chance to survive, but Ruggie and Leona remind him that if everyone got to survive then the world's population wouldn't be sitting at what it is now.

It's Ruggie who takes you as a prisoner when he finds you snooping around just on the border of Savanaclaw's territory. Jack's there to remind Ruggie of respect and whatnot as he forces you along towards the compound. Jack doesn't talk much, but he does watch you keenly as you're led to Leona. He's studying you to determine whether you pose a threat, sniffing the air to see if he can pick out any foreign, perilous smells. Once you're deemed harmless and you manage to pass Leona's test, you're welcomed into the fray. Jack sticks with you, helping you adjust to the way of life in the group. Leona may seem lazy and hard on you at times, but he does secretly care. He just expects everyone to be able to hold their own. The world's filled with liars and cheats; Jack's realized that there's no helping it, especially when the world has become so unruly.

Octavinelle is a safe haven. It's as if Azul has thought of nearly everything in order make the compound as safe and welcoming as possible. Unlike the other compounds, which are all on land, Azul's makes use of both the land and the sea. Half of it is underwater, with nearly indestructible glass tunnels that connect into a labyrinthine structure built of the strongest, sturdiest materials, while the other half is built upon the land to make use of both environments. You may think the sea isn't as bad as it is on the land, but it's so much more frightening. Those dark, dangerous depths hold all kinds of infected things: monsters, mers, mer-monsters...

Azul is willing to accept anyone into the compound, even those who may be infected so long as they stay in a specific layer of the compound (the one far below the land in the sea) and will take the medicine necessary to curb the blot infection (it's not a cure, but it is something he's managed to conjure after much trial and error. Only Octavinelle can brag that they have something akin to a cure, and Azul is only willing to share for a very steep price). Azul himself is infected, as are Riddle, Leona, Jamil, Vil, and Idia, and perhaps even Malleus, and he's constantly finding ways to suppress the monstrosities of Overblot. Azul has built the compound upon lies and secrets, all of which rest at the foundation. He'll pile sweetness onto poison so that you won't ever find the truth amidst so many falsehoods. Anyone who proves to be an issue or has seen and learned too much will be cast into the sea, but not before being thoroughly interrogated by Jade and Floyd. There's always new information to be found!

Jade and Floyd are swift and strong enough to brave the horrors of the ocean in order to search in sunken shipwrecks and husks of plane to find anything that might be useful. They're a formidable duo and aren't afraid of anything. Either you learned of the rumors of a very welcoming compound and came to Azul willingly or the twins dragged you to him by force. In any case, you'll find yourself at Azul's feet, hoping he may take pity on you. Make no mistake; Azul will accept the poor, unfortunate souls left hopeless by the apocalypse, but that doesn't mean they're permitted to stay rent-free. You'll likely be given many tasks in order to earn your keep. Octavinelle runs on information; it's become somewhat of an intelligence hub, where Azul keeps note of what goes on within the other compounds and the world beyond his safe haven, trading and taking info as he sees fit.

- - -

Scarabia has also thought of everything to combat the apocalypse. Kalim is a little too carefree when he throws celebrations in order to keep morale high and to distract those from the gloomy situation beyond the compound. It's Jamil who really runs everything. He knows everything about everyone who steps foot in the compound and he's very picky with who gets to stay. He isn't one to act rashly, rather he'll think through every action that can be taken in order to solve a problem when one arises (which happens quite often considering how restless some get within the compound). He plans behind the scenes, allowing Kalim to think he's everyone's great and glorious leader who can bring happiness to all. In secret, he's getting information, keeping an eye on anyone who may pose a threat to the compound (such as any traitors), and he's ready to curb attempted usurpation at once.

Jamil does not trust easily; Kalim does. In fact, Jamil probably doesn't trust you when Kalim makes the decision to let you stay (he always lets everyone in; it's up to Jamil to turn those who he thinks are infected away. You can never be too careful in the apocalypse, so some may think he's heartless when it comes to deciding who can stay and who must go. But this is for the sake of the compound; you have to make sacrifices because this isn't an ideal world). Like the other compounds, you'll be given work to keep yourself busy and exercised. Whether that's by preparing ingredients for food, helping in the gardens, doing inventory of weapons and other supplies, etc. it's expected that you help out.

Kalim is quick to forgive those who may have broken too many rules or intentionally stir the pot, but Jamil won't tolerate it. Safety comes first, so he'll do whatever he must in order to ensure everyone else can continue to live at the cost of a life or two. He's had to harden his heart; the apocalypse isn't kind to those with pure hearts, yet somehow Kalim's still surviving. At least he can be a ray of sunshine amidst stormy situations.

Pomefiore is also quite orderly. Vil has everyone and everything under control, so much so that you'd think he's taken a page from Riddle's book. But being one of immense beauty (even during a crisis like an apocalypse) while having quite the famous reputation and status works well for keeping the masses at ease. Vil's word is law in the Pomefiore compound. He will not tolerate any mischief, rebellion, or foolishness, and if anyone thinks it's wise to act stupidly without regard to the rest of the compound Vil has no issue casting them out. This is to be a safe, responsible compound and he's the leader. It would be poor etiquette for a leader if he always let things like that slide, so for that reason Vil can seem quite strict and immovable. He only has everyone's best interests in mind, the biggest being survival. You must understand that he's doing what's right for his compound, even if the right thing is achieved at a few lost lives.

The towers in the Pomefiore compound are perfect for analyzing faraway areas with scopes, binoculars, and anything with ranged sight. It's also good for sniping. Rook usually mans one of the towers, taking down anything he deems a threat to the surrounding territory that Pomefiore has claimed as its own. He usually leads a group to hunt and gather, often returning with wondrous success. Epel wants to accompany him on these runs (he always arms himself with his trusty brass knuckles; he's actually quite good at hand-to-hand combat, and he's always improving each time he spars with Vil or Rook), but Vil forbids him from going on these runs. Until Epel can beat him or Rook in a fight, he will stay within the compound and complete other tasks. Epel usually works within the fields and gardens, tending to livestock and crops because he has expertise in doing such things. You will probably join him for these duties if you can't fight, use magic, or hunt as well as the others can.

Ignihyde is the perfect place to go to during the apocalypse. With the best, high-functioning technology, an abundance of resources, and a power supply that can last for many years to come, it is guaranteed to keep you safe. With STYX's technology and resources, the Ignihyde compound is thriving. It has been built meticulously and methodically; every part of it serves the whole. Walls rise high into the sky, it's enclosed with an indestructible dome to keep avian dangers or bad quality air out (usually putting such oxygen through a filter so that when it enters the compound it is fresh and breathable), the tech systems can create and simulate artificial sunlight, rain from sprinklers, and can even replicate the weather of the four seasons. This is probably the most sci-fi of the compounds. With the help of STYX robots and other technologies, any threats or enemies wanting to prey on the compound won't stand a chance. Any internal threats will be locked away in solitary confinement for further analysis.

Beneath the compound, there is a branch of STYX that conducts research on infected test subjects. Idia and Ortho will oversee the research, but it's Idia who is in charge and has the final say. All of the most intelligent doctors, researchers, and nurses can be found working at this branch. It functions as both a research lab and a hospital. STYX is hard at work to find a cure for the blot infections. Idia's overheard the recent success at the Octavinelle compound (he keeps tabs on every compound and knows more than you'd think), and he knows Azul wouldn't share his findings out of the goodness of his heart. Idia doesn't need his help, though. He has faith in STYX's research. They'll create a cure eventually; it's a process, not a miracle. Logical science always comes through in the end. After all, it's science that has allowed him to build up the compound so that it truly is the most OP compound in all of Twisted Wonderland. Besides, Idia's read, played, and watched his fair share of the apocalypse genre. He's very prepared for this.

- - -

Diasomnia may not be very technologically advanced like the other compounds, but what they lack in tech they make up for in magic. Some of the most powerful mages reside within the Diasomnia compound, with Malleus leading the fray. The concept of an apocalypse is not frightening nor foreign to he and Lilia. They've both lived long enough to have experienced, seen, or heard of things like famine, war, and natural disasters—each feeling like an apocalypse in its own devastating way—so an apocalypse such as this one is not very dreadful to them. They don't fear it in the way a human might, but they will provide protection to those who exist within the compound walls. The brambles that surround the Diasomnia compound's exterior are perfect for getting in the way of any enemies, and those with malicious intent will be promptly stopped by Silver and Sebek, both dedicated guards who have loyally sworn to fight for and protect Malleus. Though Malleus could also just incinerate dangerous people with a flick of his wrist if he was so inclined, commanding scalding, verdant flames to devour flesh and bone until all that remains is ash.

Lilia is very experienced in combat and in the art of war, so he usually trains those who show promise in fighting. He also scopes out the areas beyond the compound to search for supplies, sometimes going by himself and sometimes bringing Silver or Sebek along so that they may learn and train in the moment. Silver is a very rational mage; though he's prone to sleepy spells, he is a dedicated bodyguard who will always do the right, honest thing. If Silver encounters you, he will want to take you back to the compound to help you. Lilia will agree if he's there and happens to see you, a poor, little lamb in need of protection. He thinks you're simply darling. Though he may also have his own covert reasons for allowing Silver to help you. You'll never know what these are because he hides true intentions behind kind smiles and silly humor. If Sebek finds you, you may have to pray that Silver's with him to convince him into bringing you back, or you'll just have to hope he's in a pleasant mood. Sebek will not trust you, even if you appear to be genuine. Even if Malleus has made a good judge of your character, he'll still have lingering doubts. These will be snuffed the more he's reminded that the Malleus has said you aren't a danger and that you are allowed to stay and seek sanctuary with him.

Malleus grows quite attached to you the more he becomes acquainted with you. The apocalypse presents many dangers, but it also instills immense loneliness in him. He has witnessed human suffering; he knows how fragile mortals can be. And yet he knows that, as terrible as an apocalypse is, it has blessed him with one miracle: you. He won't let you out of his sights. In fact, none of the main four will. You'll always be monitored, whether upfront or in secret. If any harm were to befall you, Malleus would simply char the offender to ash on the spot. You are his most prized treasure in this grim world. He can't let you succumb to any dangers.

Rollo leads his compound fairly and responsibly. The apocalypse just reaffirms the idea that magic is harmful and dangerous and that all mages are bad, so he grows to hate magic even more than he already does. Despite this, he'll still use magic in some instances if need be. For the most part, the compound (which is essentially Noble Bell's campus and the many buildings that comprise it) is very self-sufficient. It has an advantage with the bell tower, as it's tall enough to overlook the ruined City of Flowers and what lies beyond. He'll utilize this structure as a lookout tower.

Despite the fact that he may come off as cold or unapproachable, Rollo won't turn those away from the compound unless he knows they're infected or are dangerous. He expects everyone to view him as a leader worthy of this position, and anyone who tries to go against his word will either be severely gaslit into believing otherwise or are simply never heard from again. Rollo doesn't have time to deal with insignificant pests who want to challenge his authority, so if you wish to be difficult you can take yourself and your difficulties down to the dungeons that reside underground. Punishments and interrogations are usually carried out there, far from any prying eyes so that the peace of the compound won't be disturbed. Rollo oversees everything that happens within cold, concrete walls, and he does not show any mercy to those who are traitors or spies.

Rollo will offer you protection and sanctuary when you find yourself at the compound's gates. So long as you aren't here for nefarious purposes and you aren't infected, he'll welcome you warmly. Rollo actually keeps a watchful eye on newcomers just to ensure they aren't a threat to the society within the compound. He'll give you a tour of the grounds, informing you of where everything is and it's purpose. He wants everyone to feel comfortable here despite the horrors that exist outside, so he'll do what he can to make everyone's stay tolerable. He quickly grows to like you, especially when you offer to help in any way that you can so that you can pay him back for saving you, which means you usually trail after him or deliberately seek him out looking for ways to be useful. Rollo likes that word—saving. He likes the idea of being your savior, of being the only one in this disastrous world who can offer you salvation, and since you claim you want to be useful he can think of plenty of ways you can put yourself to use.

Rollo won't ask for much. In fact, he's very sweet. You might not think so if you see villainous sides of him, but romance is hard to come by in an apocalypse. He'll give you two options: stay with him in the safety of this perfect sanctuary, or throw yourself under a deity's microscope in the outside world and hope that whatever may exist in the clouds above takes pity on your tainted soul. If you know what's best for you, you'll choose him. It's not like he's really giving you much of a choice in this matter anyway.

Maybe just. Floyd being handled gently and lovingly, not because his s/o thinks he's weak but because they love him and think he deserves it? Does that give you any ideas? Feel free to delete if that's not what you want to write about but hope I was able to give you something or an idea to write about for Floyd

AGH YESS I WOULD ABSOLUTELY DO THAT TO HIM HES JUST SO LOVEABLE and thank you for the thought dear annon this is very much appreciated <3

Shrimp and eel

Floyd always got into fights, whether it was for azul when someone broke the contract or just for fun, either way in the end he always ended up with an injury, mostly a bloody nose but did that stop him? No. No it didn't. Which is why you took it upon yourself to patch him up whenever he got injured, at first you thought he'd be annoyed but it's actually quite the opposite, when you first asked if you could patch him up his eyes lit up and nodded his head like a madman quickly sitting Infront of you, so this kinda became like a thing for you 2, everytime he'd get injured or even just sad and moody he'd come to his dear shrimp for comfort.

Giggling while you were cleaning his scratched cheek so he wouldn't get an infection, then grabbing a bandaid to put on it

"hehee~ shrimpy is really like a shrimp"

You raised your brow at him not understanding what he meant

"in the coral sea eels and shrimp have a symbiotic relationship, the shrimp cleans the eel or helps with an injury and in return eels protect shrimp~" he answered smiling at you with closed eyes, flushing at his adorableness for a second, he giggled and held your face in his hands kissing your nose smiling even wider.

Like I said he also came to you when in need of moral support, anytime he was feeling down, angry or grumpy he'd come to you and cling onto you,

" it's not fair! Azul made me work all day because him and jade had some matters to attend to! So when I didn't go to work today because I was tired he got mad at me!" Floyd whined, nuzzling into your neck as you stroked his hair listening to him and waiting for him to finish ranting so you could comfort him

" oh Floyd it's okay, I understand how annoying it must've been but you can always get back at azul with your shenanigans"

you realised from the past events that normal comforting didn't really help him, so you gave him ideas on how to fuck up the problem instead, which was very helpful. he was no longer grumpy and instead laughing and agreeing with you, he pulled his head away from you "thank you Shrimpy, I already know what to do to azul so he never does that again~" Floyd said smiling evilly (if that's even a word) then took a hold of your face and peppered it with kisses saying how happy he was that his shrimp was always there to help him out♡

The end

I loved this request SO MUCH it reminded me of that symbiotic relationship eels and shrimp have and it really is adorable, thank you dear annon🫶

[quartztwst]

these are the things i got so far for riddle and azul

(HORROR/SCOPOPHOBIA/GORE WARNING)

Riddle:

He is actually caused by Trey

this isnt how actual Riddle looks like in the au

uhhh he haunts Trey and is the embodiment of Trey’s gulit or smth

in his kid form to gulit Trey more

Azul:

Caused by Azul himself this is Azul basically

has no arms but only 8 tentacles

very large

speaks in whispers and loud echoing sobs

his tantrums are loud but his whispers are quiet

his main quest is to have Jade and Floyd together with him forever which is why he killed Floyd and keeps him gabbed with his tentacle

He uses Floyd’s corpse to lure Jade

EXTRAS:

Riddle is more passive than Azul since he is only there to remind Trey

Riddle just stands there watching but he’s not peeking. Sometimes he startles Trey when he appears though

Riddle has no mouth but can speak in Trey’s mind which haunts him a lot lmao

Azul is more violent as he throws tantrums which makes him flail his tentacles and cause damage

Azul is only focused on getting Jade but has no problem killing others if they get in the way

Actual Azul’s body is inside of that monster but he’s far too gone

Actual Riddle is dead (BECAUSE OF OTHER INFECTION THINGS IDK WHAT TO CALL THESE CREATURES but he died which makes Trey feel even worse lmao)

info about these creatures or this infection will come out soon i guess

[l0vergirlatheart]

didnt do anyone esle because im lazy and tired and its nearly midnight AAAAAAAAAAA

anyways as always, start under cut

MALLEUS DRACONIA

he is old

mentally

im not a hater i swear

but when he sees you with things hanging out of your ears, he's slightly concerned.

whether it's normal headphones or earphones or earbuds, it just doesn't seem normal

so of course, he informs you of this

you stare at him for a second before you take an earbud out and stare at him again, with a following "what'd you say?"

he thinks it's harming your ears for a moment because you couldn't hear him

please reassure baby that it's not an infection or something

he'll be confused for a moment but he gets the hang of it rather quickly

SHARE AN EARBUD WITH HIM!!!

SHARE YOUR MUSIC W HIM!! HE WILL FALL AS HARDER, IF IT'S EVEN POSSIBLE

he jus luvs any classical tunes but..

i actually honestly think he's also like hard metal... don't ask me why

OH!! AND TV GIRL

HE LOVES TV GIRL!!!!

LISTENING TO LOVERS ROCK AND CIGARETTES AFTER SEX TOGETHER MAKES HIM MELT :((( <3

overall 10/10 good boy

LEONA KINGSCHOLAR

he KNOWS what it's like to have sensitive ears

so believe it or not, he totally understands u wearing earbuds an (probably) won't rip on u for it

he might start talking to you w/o u knowing because you have your eyes closed and youre just vibin w ur music

and he knows that so he takes that chance to say some sappy shit w/o anyone hearing him at all

he could never say it to your face

so he opts for this instead

fuckin big ass ego mf /affectionate

he'll probably never ask to listen to the music w u no matter how much he wants too

so if you wanna have a silly lil romantic moment w him, you'll have to ask him first

he'll probably scoff an roll his eyes before he sees you pout and he just turns away as one of his ears flicker

that's your sign to put the earbud in

imo i think he'd really like MSI, POPPY, and for some reason Mac DeMarco

mindless self indulgence because their music jus slaps

POPPY because i think he'd like the guitar in the background and the solos and her voice

Mac DeMarco because he's nice to listen to when you wanna pass out fr

overall 8/10 good boy

AZUL ASHENGROTTO

okay dont come at me but at first i have a feeling he might try to use it to rope u into some kind of contract...

but later on he just accepts it

he's sometimes annoyed when he's talking to you an u havent heard a thing he said

but one confused look from you makes his annoyed frown turn into a small, hard-to-keep pout

has to remind himself that your hearing is different from his

he tries his best to keep monstro lounge quiet at times and lets you stay after hours when it's all quiet and empty

it has a certain comforting charm

i swear the first time you asked him to listen to music with him

he turned into stew i swear his face was extremely red and he was just like

???

he accepted ofc, tried to play it off, (failed)

i have a feeling he'd like Ricky Montgomery, Steve Lacy, and girl in red

Ricky Montgomery because he's got a nice voice and his lyrics are really relateable,

Steve Lacy because the instrumentals are just so!!!

and girl in red because he finds it romantic listening to her w you

lean against him as you two listen to music i promise he'll explode

overall 9.5/10 good boy

KALIM AL-ASIM

oh boy

this boy is super loud (/affectionate)

but once he learns about you and your sensitive hearing, he tries his best to keep it down

from lowering his voice a bit to trying to make "quiet times" at his dorm,

he tries his best to make sure you're as comfortable as possible and it's not too loud for you

he likes to talk to you even if you're not listening to him, he could ramble for hours

as long as you're next to him, he could talk until his voices dries out and withers away

he'll probably be the one to ask you to listen to music first

i think he'd also like Mac DeMarco, Alec Benjamin, and Conan Gray

all of them because of the instrumentals and vocals!

but he doesn't mind listening to anything as long as he's with you

he might fall asleep while listening though

he's smiling all the way through though :)

overall 15/10 good boy

RIDDLE ROSEHEARTS

theres probably some bs rule about music n shit but like

lets pretend there isn't

he'll probably be trying to reprimand you for doing some stupid shit

and then you'll just take out an earbud and be like "huh??"

he'll just stare up at you, face slowly getting redder from slight anger but mostly embarrassment

like?? how dare you ignore him???

but either way, you're his favorite so you get a pass

he just sighs and shakes his head

but then you tell him why you wear your earbuds so often and he immediately gets it

he himself used to really sensitive to loud noises before he just got used to them (thanks to his mom)

so he does his best to go easy on you about it

he WILL NOT EVER ASK YOU TO JOIN HE IS WAYYY TOO SHY

hand him an earbud, he'll be confused for a moment or two

but he puts it in w a red face and vibes w u

i think he'd like Mitski, Tally Hall, and Pastel Ghost

they all are just so... soothing yet relatable

fall asleep listening to Liquid Smooth with him, hug him as you listen to Hidden In the Sand, just hold his hand as you two sit in the garden while listening to Silhouette...

he loves it sm

Second years and semicolon

First years and explanation

Riddle: since tattoos didn't exist in the day of the queen of hearts, or anythibg of the like in the area, there is no law for or against them. Riddle believes that the queen would have a rule that all must have atleast one as a show of strength and fortitude or loyalty or somethjng. He just would make sure that you took care of the tattoo during the healing process. His mother probably disapproved of Riddle himself ever getting one because they could lead to an infection. So, Riddle would defonately talk to you about it, and what your means to you. I think, when the time comes. He might get a heart and rose semicolon tattoo for himself when he is old enough. He takes so much pride in it and absolutely adores it

Ruggie: he might see tattoos as a waste of money. Growing up poor, he has seen some people tossing away their money for a new tattoo. So he might antagonize you a lil more. I think Jack would actually be the one to snap at Ruggie, saying that your tattoo means alot to you and shows a big milestone. Jack dosent open up about more, so Ruggie asks you. You may either tell him to fuck off, so he does and just kinda keeps his distance. The other option is that you tell him, and he grows a bit more of an understanding for that. He is a lil more respectful and may steal some stuff for ya because you are currently broke as shit (thanks Crowley for helping)

Floyd: he fuckin thinks tattoos are the coolest thing. I think, if he ever got a tattoo, he would get a sleeve of random ass things, going to 50 differnt artists while it's being done. He bites your tattoo because look, a homing beacon of bitting. He would respect ya is you do share your story with him, and he even helps you, in his own way. He will steal you away if you get stressed, or share your guilty foods(he does this with Azul, you can't change my mind), he likes seeing his shrimp friend happy admit all the chaos they are in

Jade: he probably isn't one to get a tattoo, he might get a mushroom one as a memory of his time on the surface. But I think he would put together what your tattoo means, and so, he helps by pushing you a bit further if you don't already push yourself. If you do, then he will present himself as an obstacle so you can take a break every once in awhile. He does this with Azul and it works well with him, so why not with another friend/patron who is struggling. He will listen to your story if you wish to share it and will be there for you, and even offer to take you on hikes with his club.

Azul: I think he would not care much for tattoos, he is a business man, a tattoo would take away from the business. But when he saw yours and put together the meaning behind it, after his overblot, he accepts that, something is also wrong with him, so he asks you to his office for drinks and to talk. So he brings up your tattoo, he identifies in some way with your story, the struggling around others, the fear, the insecurity. He apologizes for his behavior recently as it put you and your livelihood in danger. He makes an offer of buying ramshake, giveing you a place on Octanavile, and a job at the Monstro Lounge. He would get a small smiple semi Colin that could be hidden in his gloves. It's a promise, to you and himself that he would never do such a thing again, he hurt his friends, scared people, and nearly killed himself. So he wants to be better than he was, being better also seems to help with his businesses aswell so why stop?

Jamil: I think he would have a bit of a stigma against tattoos, white would be for the wealthy, while black would be for criminals. Even tough it's not entirely true, he has it a bit ingrained in him that if you have ink on you, he hates you. So before his overblot, he would be cold and distant to you. After the overblot, he decides to ask about what your tattoo means to you/your culture. When you share, he apologizes for his stigma and thank you about shareing your story. I think he would ask for permission from his family and the Al-Aslims for a white and black semicolon tattoo. He helped Kalim take care of his so he knows how to do it, but Kalim this time helps him.

Kalim: bean boi already has one! So the two fo you bond over them. Tattoos are probably a mix of cultural and a sign of wealth, specifically white ones. So when you share your and the meaning to you, this man does what he can to support you, inviting you over or comeong over for meals, checking in on you every once in awhile, just trying his best to be aware of the feelings of others.

Silver: I think silver would be fascinated by it. He was allways fascinated by oddities in whatever differnt kind of fae he talked to, multiple sets of teeth, wings, horns, pointy teeth, whatever would make himself differ from the fae. He would be very respectful about it and be sure to research each Species or ask his father about it before asking the fae themself, as to not appear as to be rude. He asked Jamil about Kalims tattoos because he knows that if there was a gaurd or a retainer nearby, it's best to adress them about some things that may be rude culturally. So he knows what a tattoo is, and ends up asking you about yours. He apologizes that you have had to go trough such hardships and is glad that you are healing and are there for Malleus whenever he needs someone to be with that isn't one of them. He honestly respects you alot for it since Jamil told him that it's a bit of a painful process. He may ask some more about your world aswell because he is genuinely curious about the differences between the worlds and helps you as a fellow human who is very much lost in this new world

"Do you wish to love me?" She whispered in a harmonic breath. His hand floated across her shoulders, briskly touching down. "Until the day I die." A promise etched into the very stars.

1,764 words.

┗━•❃°•°❀°•°❃•━┛

I can hear you.

(Y/n) dropped down onto her knees, feeling around in the dark room. The crisp smell of oxygen that's been kept in a room for too long filled her nose, as well as what smells like mildew and rot. All she could see was only inky blackness that consumed the room, warping every way she looked at things.

She couldn't find a light switch no matter where she felt, it was like she was in a small box with no way out. A prison of her own panic and thoughts.

'It's coming for me.'

'What's coming for me?"

broken thoughts filed her head, infecting her brain in a nervous buzz. (Y/n) breathed deeply to calm herself, continuing to feel against the soppy walls for any source of light. She stopped in a startled gasp when she heard something moving off in the distance.

"Hello?"

It was silence, before the pounding of footsteps against the old creaky floorboards had her shoving her back against the wall. It felt moist. It seeped into her back and drooled down her front into her shirt. The smell of metallic filled her nose and she brought her hand up to her nose. It wasn't water.

It was blood.

-

With a startle, (Y/n) sat up straight, in a room she did not recognize right away. However, people she did recognize stood around her, with one of her professors sitting in a chair not too far away. Placing a hand on her rapidly beating heart she took a deep breath to calm herself. What a nightmare.

"Professor Crewel?"

He stood up from his chair, walking up to the bed you lay in. Ace and Deuce still looked askew with worry.

"You passed out shortly after exiting my class." Professor Crewel had explained to you, arms crossing over his chest for the moment. "How are you feeling? Do you have a headache, or are you dizzy?"

"(Y/n) shook her head slightly, "No, I feel completely fine." Which was true. The tipsy disorientation she had felt earlier was gone. "But... Why did I pass out?"

Crewel thought for a brief moment, before answering. "It easily could've been the fumes caused by the ingredients we use to make potions and other properties. Sometimes people who are feeling a bit tired or overwhelmed or even people who tend to be a bit more sensitive to smell can't take it and end up fainting. This is why it is very important to tell others if you feel woozy or dizzy during class. If this happens again you may sit down or warn me and leave for some fresh air. Your safety comes before school assignments. How did you feel before fainting?"

(Y/n) nodded, agreeing to tell him if she ever felt woozy again in class. "Well, I had a headache before I came into class, and it ended up getting worse during the project before I got dizzy. And then everything went black." She explained.

Crewel seemed to hum slightly, uncrossing his arms from over his chest. "It was most likely the fumes then. Take it easy and rest until the next period. Or until you feel better. You're in the nurses office. Now, I need to get these puppies back to class. Come on."

Crewel turned to the door, ushering Ace, Deuce, and Grim out with him so she could get some proper rest. The trio waved over their shoulders, a bit disappointed (Y/n) wouldn't be joining them for their next class, and with a wave back, she laid back down.

It was three months ago (Y/n) had woken up in a world that wasn't her own. It was three months ago she met a cat that could be disguised as a walking racoon named Grim. It was three months ago Crowley had promised to find her way home. It was two and a half months ago Riddle over blotted. It was two weeks ago (Y/n) had met a mysteriously charming male that wouldn't give out his name. And, it was two days ago Azul had over blotted.

It was two days ago (Y/n's) frail body had been sent flying into a desk and had made a nasty, rather deep cut on her stomach. The dull throbbing pain had her wondering if she'd fallen onto her stomach when she fainted. 

"You fainted in class?"

An elegant voice she had recognized multiple times had drawn her out of her thoughts, and (Y/n) looked over to find Azul sitting in a chair not too far away. Perhaps he was still recovering from his overblot.

"Azul!" She greeted with a smile, before answering his question with a hint of embarrassment. "Yeah, I did. Professor Crewel said-"

"It was the fumes." Azul answered for her,  pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose with his pointer and middle finger. "Yeah. Why are you here? Still recovering?" She asked, head tilting slightly.

"Kind of." He answered, seeming to not mind her pushing into his business. After all, it won't be the first or last time she's likely to do it. "The nurse wanted to check up on me. Though he isn't here right now, so I've been waiting for him to return." Azul said, before sighing and taking off his glasses to breathe on them and wipe them clean. "Though, since I've been here for quite a bit now, I'm going to take my leave. If he wants to see me he can just call me back down."

"Fair enough. Take it easy out there." (Y/n) responded, waving to him as he left the nurses office. After making sure everyone was gone and the room was vacant aside from herself, she slowly peeled back her shirt, grimacing when seeing the cut had bled through the gauze pad she'd tapped over it. Nibbling on her lower lip and standing to her feet on wobbly legs, she made her way over and went through what the nurse had, grabbing a bottle of hydrogen peroxide, tape, and a few things of gauze.

She left quickly, deciding to go to her current dorm-Ramshackle- to patch herself up without prying eyes. Turning the corner, she slammed into a hard body loosing balance for a moment before steadying herself. "OI HUMAN-" She knew that voice from anywhere, and looked up to see she'd slammed into none other than the strange man who refused to give out his name. She mostly toned out Sebek's loud voice, getting stuck to his eyes for a moment.

What a beautiful shade of green.

"It's you again.." (Y/n) managed to get out, He peered down at her with authority, giving off an intimidating feel. "Indeed, it is me." He said simply, nodding. "DON'T TALK TO MALLEUS-SAMA WITH SUCH SIMPLICITY YOU-" Sebek started, though Malleus held up a hand, stopping him in his tracks. "Your name is Malleus?" She asked, tilting her head slightly. He nodded again. "I am Malleus Draconia, Heir to Briar Valley. I wished you not to know my status so soon, though my guard wouldn't keep his mouth shut."

"I see" (Y/n) murmured to herself though not fully understanding why he wanted to keep his status a secret from her. She put on a polite smile, "I was nice to see you again, though I have to go now." She smiled, feeling a warm feeling run down her stomach that could've been mistaken for water. but she knew it wasn't. She half sped walked half ran by, and finally, after a painstaking walk to her dorm, had fished the products out of her pockets, noticing the gauze was missing. "Crap.. I must have dropped it-"

"Fufufu~ Indeed you did. May I ask as to why you need gauze?" The coy voice of Lilia lulled out, and (Y/n) turned around, looking at the vice housewarden of Diasomnia. He held up the gauze she had dropped, waving it around teasingly.

"I... just got a small cut when Azul overblotted is all." You said calmly. "I figured," He said, matter of factly, strolling over to you. Lilia's heels clicked against the ground. "Though, it isn't quite described as "small." it?" He said, surprising her for a moment. He pointed at his nose. "I can smell it, little one. Now how about you go lay down on the couch and we take a look at this "little" cut of yours?"

(Y/n) didn't question the authority of Diasomnia's vice housewarden, instead nodding her head nervously and walking over to her couch, first sitting down before laying down. Lilia walked over and peeled back her shirt, calmly peeling off the tape around the gauze before peeling back the gauze too.

"Oh my.. How did you get this big gash?"

He seemed slightly surprised. "During Azul's overblot he grabbed my with one of his tentacles and threw me. I smacked right into the sharp part of a desk." (Y/n) explained, wincing when he poked it, inspecting the wound. "Well, luckily for you, I know how to deal with cuts. You, little one, won't need stitches, though it's a close call. Now allow me to patch you all up."

He offered a toothy smile, remaining calm before going to get the things you've brought, after around fifteen minutes he had cleaned up, disinfected, and bandaged her properly.

"Now then, tomorrow you will come to Diasomnia and allow me to change your bandages." He said, standing to his feet. (Y/n) nodded, watching him wave and leave the room.

"Well.. at least tomorrow I get to hopefully see that hot "Malleus" guy."

She mumbled under her breath, before closing her eyes and falling into a sleep of exhaustion.

-

His comforting smile made his cheeks crinkle as he shielded (Y/n) behind his back, away from the fizzing crackling sounds of the fireworks. She cried, and he knelt down, prying her small hands away from her ears, pressing in a pair of what looked like earbuds, but they didn't feel like earbuds.

"Look up, (Y/n)."

He instructed, kneeling behind you and holding onto her shoulders. With hesitance, she looked up, to the bright blooming lights filling the sky. (Y/n) let out a happy giggle, a smile spreading across her face.

"Papa! Pretty!"

"They are, aren't they, (Y/f/n)."

[viperwhispered]

The Jademic got me thinking, though.

Like, personality wise, Azul would be the likeliest source of a seafood infection for Emi. However, there's that whole thing of like... "Oh he's not so bad - oh he's going full capitalist again, nvm", just the interest graph slowly rising only to crash more of less down every time. if I was on PC I might even draw this but I'm sure you get the idea.

Like:

/|/|/|/| and so on so forth.

Plus the whole trying to take Ramshackle from Emi sure would require quite the redemption / appeasement arc for her to consider Azul in a more positive light.

However, if Jade really did want to stir shit, he just might be able to nudge Emi into a more mean / vengeful mindset when it comes to Azul. Like, she doesn't really like being mean to people, but a bit of ribbing, especially with Azul... Wouldn't that be satisfying?

And wouldn't it be nice getting a one over Azul, just a little scheme to have a bit of fun?

Turns out it might not be Jamil who has the keys to her corruption arc, but Jade.

Tagging @scint1llat3 @bibi-cha @diodellet @moonyasnow (dunno if some of y'all are any more on track than I am with what's been going on with Jade infiltrating (Jamil) ships or whatever the heck has been going on but anyway)

And uhh you guys are not on Emi's tag list but I think you have been involved in the Jademic nonsense in some capacity so hope you don't mind a tag either @viperbunnies @fell-e

Chapter 5: Twins POXED

Book 1: The Vengeful Teen

Chapter 5: Twins POXED

[School Infirmary]

Crowley: I recognize that anywhere, they got the chickenpox!

Azul: What? Do you two know anything before that happened?

Jade: We can explain.

(After explaining)

Crowley: This is clearly one of the sickness curses, the one that can infect chickenpox on their target, this is rather bad. And this one of the many types of magic spells are impossible to master, such as a timeline spell for example. The person who casted such an impossible spell, we can give them extra credit, despite magically putting an illness on you two.

Floyd: Wait, what?

Crewel: I said that to get extra credit to help your grade, is to try and get an impossible spell right. That means, all the 1st, 2nd and 3rd years have a chance to bring up their grades. Even a chance to make their grades better. I guess a pup was smart enough to put the chickenpox spell on you two, he got it right, but I’ll go find a magic doctor for your help and try to find a cure.

*Crewel leaves the room*

Trein: Now word is spreading about your encounter last night, and where you two were discovered, and you both are in no shape to participate in classes tomorrow and the Youth Festival next Saturday.

Crowley: Yes, but who would do such as thing?

Trein: But still, we need to find this threat and put him in detention, because if he continues to spread the chickenpox, I’m afraid this year’s Youth Festival is going to be cancelled.

Malleus: My thoughts exactly, I think we all know the people that can help to find out the mysterious caster, the same ones who helped expose Leona’s evil plot back at the Spelldrive tournament.

Azul: Ah yes, Yuu and Grim! I’ll go inform them, right away!

*Azul leaves the room*

Malleus: And to assist them, perhaps all the Housewardens, such as Ashengrotto and myself?

Crowley: Why of course!

(Many moments later)

[In the Headmage’s Office]

Kalim: Can’t we just reason with the culprit?

Riddle: Well no, and the fact that we don’t know who he really is.

Azul: Exactly, but I think he must’ve just done this as self defense.

Idia on tablet: Perhaps, perhaps not, we’ll never know.

Yuu: I suppose so. / Agree.

Riddle: Very well, I suppose we can continue with the preparations for the Youth Festival.

Crowley: As for Yuu and Grim, they can be the event’s managers to ensure that it’ll go as planned smoothly as possible, and they can also still try to track down the culprit.

All Housewardens: Agree.

Crowley: Then it’s settled, but just as a friendly reminder that tomorrow is Monday.

All the dorm leaders and Grim: Thanks for the reminder.

Yuu: Oh yeah. / Ok.

Crowley: You are all dismissed, good day.

{To Be Continued}

(Early/Mid Book 3)

Trey, Riddle, and Ruse are alone in the Heartslabyul lounge as the sun starts to set.

Trey: Riddle, maybe we should help them. Azul has been running Ace and Deuce ragged.

Riddle: I was thinking similarly as well.

Ruse: Why would you ever help them? They are facing the consequences of their actions.

Riddle: I would help them because they are in my dorm, and I am the Housewarden, so they are under my protection. They seemed to have been facing a lot for consequences for being a freshman not fully aware of what Azul does.

Ruse: *speaking matter of factly* It’s not that complicated. You are in charge and you said no. The fact you are still trying to show you care before they beg for forgiveness is never going to help the, learn a lesson.

Trey: *trying to speak gently* They simply need help, Ruse. We can help them learn consequences when they aren’t exhausted.

Ruse: *genuinely confused by Trey and Riddle’s words* But that is natural? They are vulnerable people who need help of the group, so when they left and got attacked, that would be their fault. They need to show they truly will submit to the rule of the head of the group, the only one who truly knows what is best. You should only accept them back once they beg for forgiveness.

Trey: Why… Why do you say that?

Ruse: That is what I was told and what happened to me. If it wasn’t for that I wouldn’t have learned to obey those who know best.

Riddle and Trey: *stunned silence*

—

Roth: Look at them. Trying to say that is wrong. Trying to tell Ruse that is wrong. This is how you know this world has the same problems seeing reality as those who tried to “save” the boy from us.

Marr: It is curious though. What do these people think will happen? If one constantly disobeys the law laid out before them, it is only logical for them to be served consequences. If they only go to search answers on their own, they will get hurt. Why should those in power care what their own reckless gets them?

Domar: It’s an infection of the mind, Marr. These no reason trying to understand their minds. Some people think a simple discussion will change the world.

(Honestly, I did think like Ruse did during book 3. I was wondering why we had to stick out our necks for something these 3 morons did.)
