Name: Lani of Atlantica

Story: One Foot In The Sea (And One On The Shore)

Parents: Melody

Face claim: Madelaine Petsch

Love interest: Harry Hook

Name: Lawson Henry

Story: Impossible Dreams

Parents: Laurence Henry

Face claim: Milo Manheim

Love interest: Evie

Summary: Every VK had the same complaints about the Isle — terrible parents, terrible resources, they’dnever broken the law, every day was a battle for survival, you get the idea.  But Lawson Henry had another complaint.  He was lonely.  He may have been a part of Mal’s crew in the loosest of terms, an insignificant ally whose father was only a henchman. But he was alone, forgotten.  He never expected that to change, until a letter came from Auradon.  Mal, Jay, Evie, and Carlos would be going to Auradon Prep, the children of the four most feared villains on the Isle — alongside Lawson Henry, son of a bumbling servant who failed his only job.

He’s sure that it’s a mistake.  He’s sure that he’ll get to Auradon and they’ll tell him that they got it wrong, that they wanted a real VK.  Someone smart, someone powerful, someone like Uma or Harry or Celia.  Instead he’s greeted by an overenthusiastic not-princess, whose own mother was once tricked into almost marrying his father.

Love Interest: Harry Hook

Summary:  Maria Frollo hated her father.  It wasn’t an uncommon sentiment on the Isle, but it was still true.  She hated him.  More than she’d ever hated anyone.  Lucky for her, she met Queenie and Helena in the marketplace one day and found herself being taken under their wings.  She knows that she isn’t tough, not like they all, but if there’s one thing she learned from her father, it was how to rain hellfire down on her enemies.

Summary: First there was Mal, then there was Uma.  Mal had defected, turned good, abandoned the kids on the isle who desperately needed her help.  Uma’s martyr complex and desperation had long since outweighed her ability to come up with a real plan.  But someone needed to protect the children, needed to keep the major villains in line, needed to run the Isle with an iron first.  And that person is going to be Queenie, no matter the cost.  And if anyone objects to her revolution, well, off with their heads.

Series: Anti-Hero Series

Story: A Rose By Any Other Name; Kiss With A Fist; You Should See Me In A Crown

Parents: Gaston Legume

Face claim:  Zoey Deutch

Love Interest: Prince Ben; Harry Hook; eventual Ben & Harry

Summary: There were many reasons that Rosabelle Legume didn’t want to go to Auradon: the Beast might have her executed, she didn’t want to leave her big brother, her crew needed her, and she wasn’t ready to say goodbye to Harry or to whatever relationship they had.  But there was one very good reason for her to leave: it would get her away from Gaston.  So she packs her bags and goes to Auradon with Mal and her gang - fine, whatever, she’d help them get the wand and everything would be fine.  But she wasn’t expecting to need to get close to Prince Ben to do it, and now Ro has an even bigger choice to make: Ben or Harry, Auradon or the Isle, good or evil?

Name: Roslyn “Marcie” Hood

Story: Civility

Parents: Robin Hood & Maid Marian

Face claim:  Zoe Colletti

Love Interest: TBD

Summary: Roslyn Hood never wanted to leave Sherwood Forest.  And why would she?  She loved her life there, it was all perfect.  She had her family and she had her freedom, what more could anyone want?  But unfortunately for her, not everyone was as happy about it as she was.  And just before her sixteenth birthday, in one of his last decrees as king, the Beast King made a proclamation.  In exchange for their freedom within the forest, the people of Sherwood Forest would have to send one child — Robin Hood’s own daughter — to Auradon Prep.

Forced out of her home and into a school where no one pretended to want her around, Roslyn had to adapt.  She started going by her middle name, Marcie.  She stopped running around barefoot.  She stopped climbing up to the roofs of the school.  She bided her time, waiting until she could leave.  But when Prince Ben brings over a new group of students, she finds that her time may have come sooner than expected.

Face claim:  Odeya Rush

Love Interest: Chad Charming

Summary: Sloane White had a plan.  Actually, Sloane White had several plans.  And backup plans, and backup plans for her backup plans.  She had plans for her relationship with Chad.  She had plans for the future of Bavaria, and for how she would hold title of both Queen and High Protector.  She had plans for her Aunt Evie, and for Ben’s dream of Isle reformation.  Sloane White had a plan for everything.  Except for Ben publicly proclaiming his love for one of the VKs.

Name: Taryn Porter

Story: Strangers Like Me

Parents: Tarzan & Jane Porter

Face claim:  Kaylee Bryant

Love Interest: Jay

Summary: Let’s make one thing clear, no one wanted Taryn Porter at Auradon Prep.  Well, no one except for Ben, and no one was willing to go against the prince over bringing a civilian to their school.  Her dad grew up in a jungle, raised by apes and her mom was a scientist.  Taryn absolutely, most definitely, did not belong at Auradon Prep alongside children of princes and princesses.  Maybe that’s why, when Ben decides to bring four villain kids to the school, Taryn is the only person who’s genuinely excited about more outcasts joining the student body.

Name: Topher Charming

Story: The Weight Of Living

Parents: Prince Charming & Cinderella

Face claim: Nicholas Galitzine

Love Interest: Evander Grimhilde

Summary: The problem with founding a kingdom when the ruling family has no children is, of course, figuring out the line of succession.  That wasn’t the first problem with the founding of Auradon, to be fair, but it was the first one that concerned His Majesty the king.  But, in a stroke of great fortune, a royal baby was born soon after.  Christopher Charming II, son of Ella and Kit Charming, prince of Gevaudan.  And, until such time as Adam and Belle have a child of their own, the heir to the United Kingdoms of Auradon.

Fortunately, Belle and Adam have a son the following year, and Topher is bumped down to being the spare.  But unlike the spares of old, there is no room for Topher to be anything less than perfect.  He’s the eldest royal child in Auradon, the blueprint upon which every other child’s future will be mapped.  A modern day Atlas, carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders, but a sacrifice that he made willingly so that no other royal child would have to.  Along with being the perfect prince himself, Topher took his responsibility as Ben’s right hand incredibly seriously.  Whether that be coaching him in all of the skills that a prince should have, or tutoring him on matters of policy and protocol, or helping him draft his first official decree as king.  Whatever it may take, Topher would do anything to protect and support Ben, to help him be the best king he could be without having to sacrifice his childhood.  When Ben brings five children from the Isle to Auradon, Topher volunteers himself to help them adapt to their new home.  But his determination to see Ben’s plan succeed is put to the test when he meets Evander Grimhilde, the unfairly attractive son of the Evil Queen.

Name: Violet Kingsleigh

Story: Lavender Haze

Parents: Alice & The Hatter

Face claim: Meg Donnelly

Love Interest: Cian Hearts

Summary: Violet Kingsleigh loved growing up in Wonderland, she really did.  She loved spending mornings in her aunt’s - the queen’s - gardens; she loved fighting lessons with her parents and reading with Absolem; she loved playing with the Tweedles and hide and seek with Chess; and, of course, she adored her dad’s infamous tea parties.  Yes, Violet loved everything about Wonderland.  Especially that it wasn’t in Auradon.  It was perfect.  And then the queen is cursed, and all of Wonderland knows that Auradon is to blame.  But they can’t declare war without proof, so suddenly their young princess is being sent to Auradon prep to investigate.  Violet knows her mission.  Violet is absolutely and entirely focused.  Violet is most definitely not prepared for the boy-king to have invited a group of teenagers from the Isle Of The Lost to start school on the same day as her.

Name: Winnie Pan

Story: Where Dreams Are Born

Parents: Wendy Darling & Peter Pan

Face claim:  Haley Lu Richardson

Love Interest: Harry Hook

Summary: When magic was shut off from Auradon, Neverland was shut away, no one could come or go.  Unfortunately for Peter Pan, he was on the wrong side of that barrier.  Stuck in Auradon with a fully grown Wendy Darling, he had no choice but to grow up, and in fact the vanishing of the magic that had kept him young didn’t just make him age as normal, it pushed him into immediate adulthood.  And with adulthood came children.  A daughter, Winnie Pan.  Winnie was raised on Peter and Wendy’s stories about Neverland and she had long since fallen in love with it.  But it was inaccessible, she’d been told, she could never see it.  And as much as she hated it, she understood.  Until Prince Ben lets four villain children through their barrier into Auradon.  And Winnie has a realization: if one barrier can be taken down, so can the other.  And Winnie Pan will follow the second star to the right to the home she should have had, or she’ll die trying.

Story: To Be Or Not To Be

Face claim:  Kaylee Bryant

Love Interest: Ben & Evie

Summary: Before Prince Ben’s proclamation, no one had ever left the Isle Of The Lost. No one, except for Ophelia. The daughter of the Enchantress, a being made of pure magic, she was everything that the Beast-King hated, the very danger that the Isle was meant to contain. But as the only child of the most powerful villain, she was a valuable bargaining chip for Auradon; a way to ensure that the villains never tried to escape.

And so Ophelia grew up in Auradon, always excluded for her parentage, never belonging and always knowing that the Beast-King could have her killed at any moment. Still, there was one silver lining to life as a hostage: Prince Ben of Auradon. Where everyone else looked at her and saw a future villain, Ben saw a girl in need of a friend. Growing up side by side in the castle, the two had always been inseparable, despite his parents’ strong objections.

But when Ben brings four more kids over from the Isle, Ophelia finds herself unsure of who she wants to be. The villain that Auradon expected her to be, or the hero that Ben believed she could be.

There has been a time when Lucette’s children legitimately thought Sif was blood family and that they were part wolf. And anyone that tried to tell them otherwise was very much ignored.

Artorias had to be the one to explain to them that Sif was adopted, just like him. They don’t care tho. Auntie Sif is Auntie Sif.

[wolflowerfullparty]

Introducing: Lucette Forgeron

Lucette Forgeron is a Duskwight who lived for a time on the outskirts of Gridania. Using old wards her father taught her, she maintained her home all on her own. It's no Gelmorra.

She worked her forge, making the common items people wanted, most commonly nails for Beatin, to the point she had them down to a science. For several years, even through the Calamity, her life didn't change—until it did.

The introduction of one Adventure, a Viera from beyond Eorzea, flipped her life completely upside down. Where she once fell victim to her doom and gloom and the loss of her family over time, she could now see a bright spot in twinkling eyes. Where she once waited to die, holding on as one of Gelmorra's last children despite never having seen the city, herself, Lucette now dreams of a better future.

After an incident in the markets of Gridania, wherein Adventure knocked out several guards looking for trouble, Lucette and her companion ran from the Black Shroud, taking off for lands she knew not. She found good work in Ul'dah and Limsa Lominsa both, prompting her and Adventure to travel the land, her smithing and him woodworking between helping people.

She met K'aty later on in a fight, mistaken as part of a local pirate problem until she was able to explain. To this day, she is one of few able to stand toe-to-toe with the Warrior of Light. Her skills with an axe cannot be understated and often net friends among enemies.

Lucette tends to be dark and gloomy in personality, but don't let the goth exterior fool you: she often speaks poetically of the beauty of the world.

Notable Story Elements:

she always dresses in dark colors, but wears ruffles in orange and green when smithing

her voice is monotone, but the most honestly expressive of her companions

her back is bad, leading her to wear a corset whenever she's moving about. she takes it off only at night when she's about to sleep and can't fight with it off, leading to innovation to lace it fast

dug this out from the deep deep depths of my drafts. it made me laugh so have at it: cindphenon LIs as dads + bonus mom lucette

Rod: surprisingly sensible and steady. is nervous and antsy in the beginning but admires both his fathers A Ton so tries his best to bring their best qualities to the forefront: ever present and very loving. quiet but very supportive parent, encourages his child’s pursuits of any interest (be it a hobby or a person). will fucking snide anyone who talks smack about his kid being a fine arts major. may be a little overbearing and critical at times but only because he wants the best for his child. 

Karma: pta mum. throws hands every weekend with karen and her disgusting brownies. will let you know how his kid is better than yours in a very smug and ‘oh did you hear’ kind of way. lets his kid know all the time that they deserve the whole fucking world. maybe spoils them a bit too much. meddles in the kid’s love life all the time. the weaker parent to the puppy eyes. doesnt like to play bad cop, tends to give in to the kid a lot lmao.

Rumpel: super straight laced parent in the streets, absolute mess in the sheets. gives kid unsolicited advice 24/7. workaholic dad but always makes it in home for dinner and keeps his weekends free. slides a cake into their room when theyre sad bc he doesnt want to force them to talk but Also doesnt want them to be sad alone. definitely disappointed when kids dont want to follow in his footsteps but very enthusiastic in seeing what they want to forge for themselves.

Fritz: must call if staying past curfew or he’ll call the cops and make them put out an amber alert. overprotective and can be smothering but very, very loving and never gives his children a reason to doubt that love. 100% behind his kid and is proud of them no matter what - from acing a test to egging a house. will say ‘i love you’ and tuck them in every night, even when they’re grown, and will fucking Cry when they move out/leave his side. definitely punched another dad once.

Waltz: actually the best dad. a natural with handling people, a safe figure to confide in, knows when to pry, and when to leave his kid alone. showers kids with lots of love, never lets them go without. the type to read bedtimes stories at night and puts peeled oranges into their lunch boxes. last day of school its an unpeeled orange and a note that says “its time to learn how to peel your own oranges :”(”. can be too nice/soft, but stern when it comes to necessary discipline.

bonus: 

Lucette: stern but fair mother, always encouraging and kind but will scold her child if needed. talks to her children like theyre adults, but always expects them to behave like kids. plays bad cop as often as she tells them ‘i love you’. an unsure parents and lots of self-doubt in the beginning, but never fails to put her child first. shows her love through actions more than words. trying her best to be better every day.

Ok tumblr friends. I’m trying to spend less time on the internet these days, and I LOVE reading non-fiction books, but trying to find recommendations for new books is a nightmare. Any time I try to look up good new non-fiction books the results are all like “would you like to read an autobiography of Paul Newman or New Reasons We’re All Doomed” and that just. Doesn’t Work for Me. So I’m asking for recs here. I’m open to books about literally any field or topic. Only caveats are that hard sciences have to be on a level I can understand as a humanities person, and medical stuff can’t be too gory (ie I loved Siddhartha Mukherjee’s The Gene and The Song of the Cell, but can’t stomach The Mother of all Maladies). And nothing TOO miserable, but I have a fairly high tolerance for historical stuff. I’m particularly fond of micro-history and books that delve into multiple overlapping topics.

As a sampling, here are some books I’ve read and particularly enjoyed in the last two years:

Prairie Fires: The American Dreams of Laura Ingalls Wilder by Caroline Fraser

The Cooking Gene by Michael Twitty

The Gene: An Intimate History by Siddhartha Mukherjee

Song of the Cell by Siddhartha Mukherjee

On Savage Shores: How Indigenous Americans Discovered Europe by Caroline Pennock

Fifth Sun: A New History of the Aztecs by Camilla Townsend

The Five: The Untold Lives of the Victims of Jack the Ripper by Hallie Rubenhold

The Last Days of the Incas by Kim McQuarrie 

The Dream and the Nightmare: The Story of the Syrians who Boarded the Titanic by Leila Salloum Elias

Life on a Young Planet: The First Three Billion Yeats by Andrew Knoll

Salt: A World History by Mark Kurlansky

The Food of a Younger Land by Mark Kurlansky

Mastering the Art of Soviet Cooking by Anya von Bremzen

Jesus and John Wayne by Kristine Kobes du Mez

Kingdom of Characters: The Language Revolution that made China Modern by JIng Tsu

The Last Island: Discovery, Defiance, and the Most Elusive Tribe on Earth by Adam Goodheart

Entangled Life by Merlin Sheldrake

National Dish: Around the World in Search of Food, History, and the Meaning of Home by Anya von Bremzen

[ga-yuu]

I have been wondering for a while now. What characters from otome have taugh you valuable lessons? Is that characters your favorite or not?

Actually, now when I think about, I was a really horrible person back in school. I was selfish, I loved manipulating people for my own benefit, I was fake and sometimes I break people's hearts without second thought. Now you might be thinking 'Woah! This girl used be an asshole in school.' Yes! I was....and now when I think about it.....I hate myself.

Now that I'm an adult, I think it's not only otome games and anime that played a part in changing me. It's just, once I became an adult I left behind my childish behavior and started....to be a better person.

Usually when I play an otome game, or watch an anime or even a movie, I do end up learning a thing or two but most of the time I forget about the movie after 2 or 3 weeks, but that life lesson always follows me everywhere. Now otome games, has played a big part in my life but I don't remember every otome games story clearly now....but I'll try. Also most of them might not be my favorites!!

Also !!!!!SPOILERS!!!!!

Lance (Nameless) - I learned how to cherish even the smallest thing that happens in my life.

There is a scene if I remember correctly, where Lance was standing near a trash can in the rain and sees a barbie doll in the trash can.

I felt really bad when I saw that. A doll for me used be a thing that never had feelings. Even if break it or throw it away, it would never cry or even curse me(unless it's possessed)

But now, after seeing that scene, I started to put myself in it’s place and I started to feel how worse it was. A doll you loved so much as a kid is now thrown away like a piece of trash.

From then on, started loving everything I have whether it’s a living thing or non-living thing. Even the laptop I used to write this, even the phone I used to play games, even the pillow I cuddle with in my bed are all precious treasures to me and I want no one to even touch them.

This might sound like I’m crazy, but I don’t care. I love everything that my parents offered me and will cherish it till the end.

Also, do I like Lance? Yup. He’s my 2nd fav. of this game!

Soi (Nameless) - Looking at your own self before criticizing others.

Soi might be an extra in the game, but I still loved her every time she showed up. She’s always shown to be a true friend towards Eri(MC) and always liked her for who she is.

I haven’t played the entire game, but in one route, when Eri tells her friends that she has a hobby of collecting dolls and was ready to hear her friends bashing her about being childish and stuff, Soi was very casual about it and didn’t say anything.

When Eri asked if she was weird for having such a hobby, Soi gives a savage reply like “Dude, I already have many problems in my own life to deal with. Why would I want to increase my burden with yours’= too?” or something like.

That was a very good lesson for me to learn. Before you go out and tell people how should they behave or criticize them, first check yourself. Are you a good person? Is your life problems already solved before you go out and solve other person’s problems?”

Seriously, if you have these kind of people in your life, tell them to FUCK OFF! because they’re toxic as hell.

Lucette (Cinderella Phenomenon) - The person you love and trust might not always be a good person.

Everyone has a person they trust and love. For some, it might be their friends, for some it might be siblings, or for some it might be their pets. No one has the right to judge. But the person you trust might not feel the same way for you.

In this beautifully made game, the MC, Lucette is disliked by everyone because she’s rude, arrogant and never trusted anyone other than her mother. But in the end of the story !! SPOILER ALERT!! her mother was the villain in her entire life.

 Her own mother made her not trust anyone, even her own father for her entire life. When she learned about this truth, she was literally heart broken because the only person she ever loved didn’t love her back. But life doesn’t end there. She stands up again and tries to reconcile with her father, stepmother and step siblings.

Going through betrayal and experiencing heart breaks is traumatizing but it’s also a part of learning....you will learn to not trust anyone blindly. Life doesn’t end there, you have to keep moving on and one day you’ll surely find a person you can trust and rely on.

If you’re still alone, then keep a pet. There is no rule that you should only love humans, right?

Sovieshu (The remarried empress webtoon/ interactive game/light novel) - It only takes one small mistake to collapse your entire world.

It takes great hard work and time to create an strong Empire, but did you know that one small mistake is enough to destroy everything in your life. The webtoon Remarried Empress is a right example of that. (If you haven’t read this, I highly recommend it.)

Sovieshu is piece of SHIT! I won’t lie, but he has thought me this lesson. Sovieshu is a Great Emperor along with Navier, who is the Empress of their country. They both were trained to be the king and queen since they were children and both were the best of friends. Even if they were not lovers, they were still married and Navier has always been faithful towards her husband and the entire Empire.

But one day, Sovieshu happened to meet tRashta(slave) and fell in love with her at first sight. Without doing any background check of her past or anything, he brings her home and makes her his concubine. Navier was kinda sad but she didn’t want to show it because she was the Queen and she had to, you know, keep her public image at the top. But Sovieshu on the other hand started becoming abusive and compared Navier with tRashta. Even though Navier didn’t do anything, he  kept on accusing her for bullying tRashta everyday. It’s like he would wait in the corner, hiding, looking at Navier and tRashta interacting and when he see tRastha crying, he comes running to her and starts to scold Navier in front of the whole public. He’s such an asshole. Later he does give her a divorce (stating that she’s infertile) because, tRashta was pregnant with his baby and he didn’t want to make her baby, a bastard because, tRashta is not his wife. But on the other hand, he also didn’t want to leave Navier because she was a perfect Queen in every way. So his plan was to divorce her for one year, and marry tRashta till the baby was born, so the baby becomes the princess. Later he’ll annul their divorce, so by doing this he has both tRashta and Navier. He’s such an asshole.

But Navier had other plans. So right when her divorce was agreed by the priest, she requested for a remarriage. From here own, Sovieshu’s tragedy starts. Later in the story he finds out that, it wasn’t Navier who was infertile but it was him all along. Even the baby tRashta carried was not his. After this betrayal, Sovieshu lost his mental stability and went through severe depression. See! That’s all it takes for your world to collapse. One single mistake is what is needed.

Kurama(Ikemen Genjiden) - What’s wrong with being yourself?

IDK if your family is like this, but my family is like “You have to learn to eat everything. Like vegetables, meat etc etc” with a reason that you’ll be able to live any circumstances.

I would like to say that, I’m a very picky eater. I hate vegetables, especially tomatoes. If I even see one small piece of tomato in my food.....I won’t throw the whole food away, I’ll just take the piece and put it on the side of the plate and also yell at my mom for putting tomatoes in my food. I’m also a vegetarian. I hate tasting meat but I don’t mind eating food in the small table as my non-veg father. Also, unlike my family members, I’m very punctual. (because I’m an introvert and I don’t like getting the extra attention when I’m late!!)

These are just some of the facts of me being me. My family always complains that I shouldn’t choose how I want to be and must always be perfect in everything because I’m a girl and girls are married off when they get older, right? (It’s bullshit.)

The only people who loves me for who I am are my parents. They never once told me to do this or that like my useless uncles and aunts who have never ever contributed anything in my life.

Kurama as a character, I love him, because he is just being himself. He’s like ‘I’ll do whatever I want and no one has the right to stop me.’ 

That quote is so beautiful. I mean, why are you being fake for the sake of being accepted by the society. The people who truly loves you will love you for who you are. Do the things the way you like. Eat what you like, drink what you like, watch whatever you like. If you like anime, and your friend wants to watch sports, watch anime in your phone with your head phones. It’s better than watching sports you don’t like and creating an awkward environment by acting you know every player in the team, right?

No one has the right to judge anyone. If anyone does come and tell you “Hey, you should not do this like this way, but you should do it this.”, tell that person “ I’ll do whatever I want and no one has the right to stop me. “

Yoritomo and Yoshino(Ikemen Genjiden)- Not everyone is perfect.

I never understood what is the meaning behind being a perfect man or perfect human. Does it mean you have good figure on the outside but at the same time you’re toxic as hell inside? or does it mean you’re very intelligent but at the same time you’re socially awkward? 

Not everyone is perfect. Not everyone is good at every single thing and not everyone has to be good at everything.

Yoritomo as a character, always wears a perfect smile indicating others how good he is. But in reality, he’s very lonely and also needs someone to look after him just like anyone else.

There is nothing wrong with being independent and doing everything on your own. But there is also nothing wrong in depending on someone for things you can’t do. If anyone boldly claims that “I don’t need anyone to love me, I’m fine without anyone” it’s all bullshit! Don’t believe in that kind of nonsense.

Even if you’re the king of the world or even if your a roadside homeless puppy, everyone needs love and support in their life. Everyone needs some one they could talk to, even if it’s just trivial.

It will at least give them a small amount happiness even though it doesn’t worth anything. That’s why I’m telling you, if you don’t have a lover or friends or parents or any human being to talk to, adopt a pet or something.

I hope I was able to answer everything you wanted to hear. ヽ(o^ ^o)ﾉ

The Six Children of Lucette and Koray

(Also known as the Six Grandchildren of Artorias)

Leofred - Technically the eldest child out of litter, having been born 5 minutes before Idmaer, Leofred is the stern faced, exasperated twin brother of Idmaer. He finds his brother’s tricks and pranks tiresome and annoying but is always willing to lend a helping hand to him if needed and will gladly lie his brother out of trouble. Leofred has a relative short amount of patience for anyone outside close friends and family, but amount endless for his family. Underneath his feelings of exasperation at his brother, Leofred holds a secret sort of pride at how cunning Idmaer is and is always quick to correct him whenever he made jokes about Leofred being the “smart twin”. He does not tolerate any of siblings putting themselves down, even as jokes. That’s his job.

Idmaer - The particularly troublesome prankster out of the litter and the twin brother of Leofred. Unlike his more quiet and stern brother, Idmaer always has a grin on his face and a mischievous look in his eye. He uses his cunning mind for tricks and pranks on unsuspecting courtiers and knights and always enjoys the chaos his actions cause. Though, not so much the lecture and scolding and groundings his mother gives. He loves teasing and messing around but when night falls, enjoys listening to his brother tell him about what he read during the day. As a sort of bedtime story type thing. He will interrupt and comment his thoughts but will allow his brother to continue. He secretly looks up to Leofred, feeling a brotherly pride at how smart his twin brother is. 

Teodora - Teodora is a sweet and adventurous girl who loves exploring the castle and other places, sometimes into places she shouldn’t be. She inherited her mother’s endless curiosity and never shies away from asking questions. If she wasn’t given an adequate answer, she will search for it herself. She is usually the one to catch her older brothers’ mid prank and will gladly hold it over their heads to not tell mom in order to get them to do her chores. She is a very art oriented person who loves painting, sketching, and embroidery. Her favored subjects of such are usually flowers and plants, especially from her mother's garden. She could usually be found painting or sketching in the garden

Aiyla - Aiyla is a very active and prideful young girl who enjoys sports and competitions. She inherited her mother’s competitiveness and always does her best to win (through fair means). Many would say she inherited her grandfather’s pride. She does not tolerate being talked down to and will not hesitate throw hands with someone, no matter how big they were. She does not tolerate bullies and has no problem bashing some heads together. She is also very defensive of her older and younger siblings, often being compared to the wolf that is the symbol of their family. She loves the trips to the Royal Wood, often racing ahead on her horse against her brothers and climbing trees with her grandfather. She will sometimes lend a helping hand to her older brothers for their ideas, especially if it involves stair sledding.

Feray - Feray is a sweet and kind little thing. Due to her albinism, she was not allowed to stay out and play in the sun for as long as her siblings and was closely monitored by her family, including her siblings. As the youngest, she was the baby of the family for a long time and thus special privileges were given to her from her older siblings. She developed the same love for animals that her grandfather and mother held and adores flora and fauna and learning about them. She and her older sister, Teodora, can often be found together in the gardens, pointing out new flowers, blooms and arrival of new animal life. As such, Spring is her favorite season. She loves watching Teodora paint and often begs her older sister to give her the finished piece. She usually hangs them on the walls of her room and keeps extra special ones in her drawers. Like all of her family, she loves dancing and going to the Royal Wood to visit Great Grandma Alvina. She also loves music and is gifted with playing the harp, the lyre, and the ocarina. She often plays music for her family during the evening

Lux - Lux is the adopted son of Lucette and Koray and the youngest of the litter. He was found by Lucette in the forest during a birthday trip for one of her children. Lucette, remembering how alone she felt in the big dark forest, alone with no parents before Artorias found her; takes him under her wing. She then discovers that the child is definitely not human. His strange eyes, sharp canines, claws and especially his wolf legs pointed to him being something above a human. He was happily accepted by the family and, when Artorias got over his initial confusion of there suddenly being an extra child he didn’t know about, was embraced warmly by his new grandfather. Lux is selectively mute, preferring to speak only around and to family, never to strangers. Those who try to force him to speak to them get growled at or even a bite at their fingers. After settling into the family, his full personality blooms. He loves doing running around with Aiyla, visiting the forest, and going hunting and tracking animals. Sometimes he’ll even join in on Idmaer’s pranks and makes a good lookout with his heightened senses.

Cinderella Phenomenon Evermore: Walkthrough & 100% Achievements Guide

hello, after being dead for a year lol

This guide is for the visual novel Cinderella Phenomenon Evermore, which is the sequel visual novel to Cinderella Phenomenon. It explores life after the events of Cinderella Phenomenon and both the original and this are honestly some of my favorite games ever. it is highly recommended you play the original game first.

Please support the devs, Dicesuki, they’re the best!! ^-^

Please make sure to turn off the Right Choice Indicator for an achievement! I did my first route blind dfsafsa as someone who uses walkthroughs ALWAYS, this was painful for me LOL to get this achievement without some kind of guide honestly 

You're in for the ride of a lifetime if you love Cinderella Phenomenon just like me ^°^ Let me know if anything is wrong, and I'll fix it! I'm not sure what the parameters are for a good vs best ending but I think it's the majority?

There's not a recommended route order but here’s my personal recommended order: Chevalier --> Rod --> Karma --> Fritz --> Waltz

Under the cut so this post isn’t 28429828 years long and also mild spoilers

Rod: To achieve his best ending, you should be straightforward and honest like Lucette was in the first game (except she's a lot nicer about it lmao)

- Write back - ... - Forest - Stay silent - You are right - He is doing well - Interrupt the fight - Ophelia - Something simple - (any) - Convince her to tell him - I am the lucky one - He is hardworking - What do you want to do?

Klaude: To achieve Klaude's best ending, you should keep him and his preferences (hobbies and favorites) in mind.

- Use the sword - The chameleon - Refuse his help - Make a rose - Sit down next to him - Suggest he go to Klaude - Allow him to tag along - Remain silent  - Interject - Remain silent - Sword fighting - Tease him  - Stop for the cupcake - Beauty 

Chevalier: To achieve Chevalier's best ending, you should do your best to encourage him instead of doing it yourself, generally speaking.

- Let him sleep - Leave them be - Break up their conversation - Sweep - Answer the boy - Object - Agree with him - Make a scarf - Hold off - Ask Ophelia about her past - Flowers - Lessons in anatomy (lmao) - Encourage Chevalier to answer - Let Chevalier answer - Join the dance 

Fritz: I'm not going to lie, if I had to do this route blind, I would've gotten a lot of these wrong (which is not a surprise since I got most of Rod's incorrect lmao) Some of them are pretty counterintuitive in my honest opinion, but just keep in mind logic and also Fritz (specifically because he is very selfless).

- Congratulate - Croissant - Speak up - Accompany Fritz - Offer him the cup of tea - Teach me how to defend myself - Hide - Dismiss Fritz's worries - I loved him - Thirty years - Yes - Play along - I'd like to dance with you again - Intercept the knight - Talk about the future

Waltz: For Waltz's Best ending, stay true to yourself and remember Waltz's preferences. He’s best boy imo but that’s also just me LOL

- Wait for me - Walk around town - Tell me a story - Concede - Comfort him - (any) (i dont think there was a right choice indicator :')) - Argue - You have no right to judge him  - Reason with him ** (i cant find a right choice indicator even tho i went through this route not once, not twice, but THREE TIMES :') but this feels most right) - I will show them I am not my father. - Give the chocolate to the children - Deflector - You can make a difference - Perhaps - Candied apples

Cinderella Phenomenon: Evermore (Submission)

It is I, Cinderella Phenomenon anon (that's still a lot of fun to say), returning after all this time... because, you see, the visual novel's sequel has finally been released!  So I'm typing this up as I play, to update you on what happens with stepsiblings-to-lovers Lucette and Rod after the events of the first game.  And boy, am I hyped--I've been waiting for this for 3 years (so I apologize in advance for the length).  So onward we go, to what happens after the "happily ever after."

Two years have passed, and Lucette has begun repairing her fractured relationship with her father, as well as becoming closer to her stepfamily after the events of CP1.  We open with her eagerly waiting for a letter from Rod, something that happens regularly.  For the past year, he has been acting as a dance instructor in a friend's neighboring kingdom, as a result of a wish he made because "he insisted that if he wanted to prove himself worthy of [Lucette's] hand, he needed to recraft his reputation from the ground up."  Lucette doesn't agree it's necessary and kinda resents how he made this decision without considering her feelings.  It's been two months since his last visit, and she worries he might not miss her as much as she misses him.

Since the first game, both the queen and king have found out about their children's relationship (and they love and support them).  The couple continued to keep it secret from the public because of how it would look.  But eventually, in the face of such strain, they turned to magic, hence Rod's wish.

Essentially, it works like Lucette's curse did--he wished to be a commoner, so he'd be free to pursue the woman he loves.  (He made sure the wish would only affect himself, not Emelaigne or their mother, because he's still so devoted to his family, and in light of that, he had one more parameter.  His family still remembers who he is--as well as the other characters from CP who are involved in magic and such--and he writes to the whole family regularly.)

Although obviously his family misses him, Em says of herself and their parents, "Rod loves you, Lucette.... It's why we decided to support his decision.  We want you both to be happy."  Although it's not completely unexpected as a viewer, it's sweet that they all came together to support the relationship and what Rod feels the need to do.  Even when it makes things hard, when they can't show affection for him in public when he's supposed to be a commoner.  (Also, Em and Lucette really have come so far in their sisterly bond in the past couple years, and it's also so sweet.)

Rod returns to the castle, having kept his visit secret to surprise Lucette.  They're so happy to see each other and so unabashed about showing it--such a far cry from the dislike --> very grudging fondness that used to characterize their dynamic.  They've grown a lot more comfortable with showing their feelings for each other (even in front of their dad).

Though they can still be delightfully tsundere toward each other, as seen after Lucette's initial shock at the reunion wears off.  ("I missed your glower," she tells him.  "Do you have to point out every time my face changes?" he asks, and she says, "If it embarrasses you, then yes." They're such a delight.)

Rod is here under the guise that he's become the new royal dance instructor until the upcoming ball--never mind how, if you'll recall from the first game, Lucette is an accomplished dancer, as evidenced by their dance scenes together.  The couple has a rendezvous the next day in the forest where they used to meet up before their parents found out about their relationship, and they dance together again.

The announcement of the new dance instructor causes a stir in the castle.  Lucette overhears a couple maids wondering about why they've seen Rod visit the castle in the past, and one posits that he may be courting Emelaigne since they seem very close (as Lucette struggles not to laugh). The other maid notes how similar Rod and Em look, and wonders if he's courting Lucette instead.

Meanwhile, it's clear that Rod and Em are hiding something from Lucette, and she's unsure what (calling it now, he's gonna propose).  Obviously it's not related to the previous speculation, nor does Lucette assume anything of the sort, but since the scene happens right afterward, it's funny to note. After Em leaves, Lucette tells Rod about the "courting Em" rumors to mess with him (they still have a bickery-siblings type of dynamic, which is fun). He's bewildered and asks if there were rumors about him courting Lucette, but she teases that "I suppose we have no chemistry." He says, "That just means our acting is impeccable."

However, Lucette gets somber then, asking him how long they'll have to keep pretending they aren't together.  Since Rod made this wish so they wouldn't have to hide their love anymore, why are they still having to hide? She asks if he's worried the people will judge him harshly like they did to his mom when she married the king, but Rod says he doesn't care if they judge him, but is worried about how they'll judge Lucette.

Rod says that when he'd told Lucette about the wish he wanted to make last year, he thought she'd seemed hopeful, even if she was concerned--otherwise he wouldn't have gone through with it. He assures her that he has a plan. "From here on out," he tells her, "we face our problems together."  It's nice that--even if they still struggle with communication at times, because of their histories--they've gotten better at it.  They dance together again.

The next day, Rod and the king tell Lucette that Rod has officially requested permission to court her, so they won't have to keep hiding now.  Again, Lucette is thrilled and not ashamed to show it (again, even in front of their dad--who just reacts to this stuff with a fond smile, and I love that).

Also, something I didn't bring up in my previous review of CP, but it comes up in another conversation here--how there's a parallel between the ideas of commoners marrying royals (with the queen and king) and Rod and Lucette's relationship, in the original and now in the sequel when Lucette mentions (when a little boy mentions that her suitor "isn't" a prince) how titles "should not be a hindrance when it comes to love" and everyone should be free to love whomever they want.

Their friends throw them a celebration for their courtship.  It's nice how they're surrounded by supportive family and friends.  Also someone tells Lucette "I'm glad you found someone just as stubborn as you to cherish," which totally sums up their dynamic tbh.

(I'd also like to mention a new dynamic introduced in the sequel.  Parfait, an important character from the original, has a cousin Sinna who she's training to be her successor now.  He's grouchy as opposed to Parfait's gentle kindness, though she assures them that he's "quite pleasant once you get to know him" and seems to genuinely mean it.  Lucette immediately sees the similarities with Rod, and I love it. There's undoubtedly more going on with Sinna in other routes since they wouldn't introduce a new character otherwise, but he doesn't show up much in this one. Still, they're fun.)

Meanwhile, both Lucette and Emelaigne have noticed that Rod is stressed and overworking himself, and they're determined to help him.  I love how they're a team when it comes to looking out for him, even if he doesn't want them to. Lucette finds out he's been learning to swordfight in secret, believing that this will benefit the couple in the long run. He isn't ready to explain what he means yet, though.

Sebby (his plush former translator when he was cursed with silence) assures Lucette that it's less that Rod's keeping a secret and more that he wants to surprise her, and Rod confirms this later and assures her that he just didn't want her to worry for him (too late, buddy).  But now he's realizing he did just that.

Again, it's nice to see how they're getting better with communication, but still struggling with it because of their past baggages. This feels like a natural continuation of both their individual character arcs and their relationship arc. Also, Rod's definitely trying to subtly get a feel for Lucette's thoughts on marriage now.

Emelaigne has a potential suitor, and it's nice to see her and Lucette talking relationships and how Em treats this potential romance and Lucette/Rod's romance just the same. She's a wonderful, accepting angel and we don't deserve her. Also she hasn't told Rod yet because he can be "very overprotective.  One time, a suitor sent me flowers, and Rod trailed him back to his home and bombarded him with questions. ...He's always been that way." I love what a fiercely protective brother Rod is, despite being a couple years younger than Em. And then Lucette jokes about peppering this potential suitor with questions to make sure he's "worthy" of Em too.  (The ot3 is real, y'all.)

The ball arrives, and--yep, called it! Rod proposes to Lucette. The whole family congratulates them (and again, it's so nice to see how they've come to wholeheartedly accept their relationship... but then, how could they not, when it's helped both of them grow so much?). And the day Lucette walked in on Rod and Em being suspicious, he'd been showing Em the ring and they had to hide it from Lucette quickly. Rod and Lucette dance together again, and I just really like dancing as a recurring motif that shows the evolution of their relationship.

(And then they go to talk together in her room after the ball. Lucette asks him to stay the night so she can sleep next to him, and they're so endearingly awkward about it. He's all "I want to stay with you. Tonight and... whenever you'll have me. And I'll do... whatever you're comfortable with." Which is currently lots of kissing and then sleeping, but god, they're cute and wholesome af.)

Several months pass since the engagement, and Lucette and Rod are studying to make sure they'll be the best rulers they can be once their father cedes the throne. Meanwhile, Em is going for a visit to her new beau's country, so the couple makes her a plush together (Rod is awful at it, but as always he works so hard) to make her feel more at home while she's away. Also Rod mentions his worry that Em will be gone for a while and make them wait like he made Lucette wait, and the explicit parallel is neat. Plus, I just love how much this whole family, imperfect as it is, cares for each other.

Also, even though the wedding isn't just yet, Rod goes ahead and makes his vows to Lucette in her room that evening, and... yeah, judging by how they wake up the next day, it was definitely more than kissing this time. But still wholesome af. Rod teases her for being embarrassed until she threatens to kiss him to shut him up, which was totally the plan all along. The "shut up" kiss is definitely a pattern with them, and another fun thing about the dynamic. the story ends with an ending card assuring the audience that their love lasted forevermore.

Alternately to the last paragraph (depending on player choices), there's a nice scene of Rod and Lucette in the woods where they used to covertly meet up for their dates, and a really nice line from Rod: "Fate sure loves to toy with us. [a callback to the previous game] ...For you, I would do anything.  Confronting fate was nothing." They make a pinkie promise (aww) to not keep any more secrets and to instead face everything together in the future.

So we only get 2 Good Endings on this route, y'all. Hell yes. They're adorable together, I love the continuation of their arcs, and I'm so happy that they did get the acceptance and congratulations on their relationship that they deserved from the people they love. Also, Emelaigne = best sister/wingman, confirmed again.

Sorry for the length of this commentary. As I said, I was writing it as I played through Rod's route of the sequel for the first time, and I couldn't help but gush because they're so delightful. If you read all this, I really appreciate it!

Cinderella Phenom-ANON here--quick addition to my submission about the sequel as I continue playing! In Klaude's route, we get to know his younger brother Lance, and they're both charming and very competitive with each other, with their similarities spurring the rivalry, which is fun. It's also confirmed that (outside the route where they get together) Lucette and Rod are also competitive with each other, and apparently they have a running challenge about who's the better dancer, lol

I had some asks about Cinderella Phenomenon and totally missed these older asks that were in my inbox. I must have done a typo when I was searching. 

THANK YOU FOR ALL OF THIS. I love details, always!

Lucette and Rod are SO cute. How nice it must have been to get to follow them being cute as an established couple after shipping them so hard in the first one.

it is rather rare for cosimo to be out late , his days of wild long gone . he traded them for a wife and a family , even if most would claim that they never expected it from him . tonight is an exception that he made to meet an informant and he is about to leave the club when the girl blocks his path . once upon a time , the archangel had been tasked with the protection of mundanes . leaving now would have been treason , but it has been a very long time since he bowed to heavenly laws . his past is not what stops him in his tracks , his present is . mismatched eyes study her as she bursts into tears . what if this happened to aurora ? to isabella ? wouldn't he , as a father , want someone to look out for his children ? his gaze lands on the male and the urge to strike is strong , but he doubts that it would offer lucette a sense of safety . ❛ never again . ❜ he tells him instead , a thinly veiled threat . the blond focuses on her again and he nods his head . ❛ yes . let's go . ❜

lucette johnson didn't know of the supernatural. at least, not yet. instead, she had to deal with the more mundane threats of new york after sundown—men. maybe it had been her that started it, she couldn't have been sure; it was one of those nights where she had spent most of her wage on cheap shots to get herself hammered. it was the only way to deal with the absence of both her mother and her brother, the latter of which she had only just discovered had been cowering, the damn coward, a few blocks up the street the entire time. typical koda, always running away from reality without a scrap of consideration towards those it might hurt. how the altercation started, and whoever stoked the flames, was irrelevant, as it began to spiral. ettie screeched at the man who had a good few inches on her height, although the pint-sized firecracker was putting up one hell of a fight. “if you touch me . . . oh, you're gonna have a real storm on your hands. a real storm!” she backed away, and stumbled drunkenly into the path of @violentdesires. it was then that her facade broke, and ettie's crumbled into tears. “can you help me home?”
