imagined a stardew valley x eah crossover and remembered that someone had made an amazing stardew valley portrait maker and had to try and make the vision i had in my head

Taking a pause to appreciate the “feral factor” in certain TWST fellows.

I’m sure there is something in all of them that manifests in some way when they hear their beloved (male/female/nonbinary/otherwise) has been mistreated or put in harms way by a third party…but certain ones…feral

When I wrote “Her Lost Voice” (aka mermaid mafia story), it was when Jade literally came to the rescue of his love interest as she was being pursued and attacked in real time. Oof feral Jade Leech, I tell you whut. Unhinged. Terrifying.

Now I’m working on the next chapter of “Her Devoted Shield” and my OC dragon bae, Moselle, is telling Malleus about the absolute hellish experiences she had after being captured by poachers (spoilers: it was BAD)

Malleus Draconia. The same Malleus Draconia that nearly ended the world just so he wouldn’t lose another parent. Now newly crowned Briar King Malleus Draconia, the highest power in Briar Valley, seeing his precious friend crush crying traumatic tears and recounting all this cuz (I’ll stop here cuz spoilers 😂)

But oooooo gurl. Can you imagine the fury this fae woman now has the power to unleash upon her enemies?? 🤣 One bat of her pretty eyes and it is over

Overblot Round 2: Hell’s Reckoning here we go lol

[angelwishess]

YEA AND BONUS?? SHE is the crown princess of her kingdom so Kyra is getting SPOILED.

STOP OMG.. SHES SO NOT USED TO THAT 😭😭 SHE’D BE SO FLUSTERED BUT SO HAPPY ABOUT BEING SPOILED 😭 UUAUUAUU .. BIG SIS DRANAV … YIPEEEYIPEEE

[plutosring]

I want Malleus to bite my neck.😬

What 😭

[spadecentral]

Malleus, Protect the queen of briar valley at all costs.

Preach

[yuri-is-online]

The dead manipulating the living and seeking a willing host in the form of an emotional mage sounds similar to what you could describe an overblot to be... what I want to know is how Briar Valley got this political system in the first place.

Food for thought:

Why hasn't Meleanor, who's already in her 300s before her death, ascended to be queen? Is it because they're waiting for Maleficia to die? Is it because Meleanor isn't as strong as Maleficia yet?

Or is it because Meleanor isn't easy to control? Because unlike Maleficia, Meleanor does not listen to the senate and does things her own way. Because she keeps a filthy bat they hate as her closest aide, because she married a radical who wanted the Fae and humans to coexist?

I want to reserve my judgments until we get explanations in Maleficia's perspective, but for now it's looking like the senate wants Maleficia, old and tired as she is, to stay in power because she has grown extremely weak mentally and is easy to manipulate. That's why they don't want Meleanor to become queen. That's why Meleanor moved out of the capital and built her own castle somewhere far. That's why they want to lock Malleus up in his little tower, because if he goes outside and learns of how the real world works and how disgusting their kingdom has become, they'll have to deal with a young and powerful radical who they would not be able to manipulate to their benefit.

Lilia did great in bringing out Malleus. I think Maleficia has faith that her grandson would be able to do what she couldn't, and that's why she at least fought for him to enroll in Night Raven College even when the senate probably opposes.

Honestly I think this will have a huge plot relevance in the upcoming Book 8 because you do not just introduce a detailed account on an entire country's politics just to trash it after Book 7. This book is extremely, extremely heavy in the sudden lore drop and world building that it would be disappointing not to expand on it and give it a satisfying conclusion.

Btw when I say this fic is wild. U don't know the half of it.

Ace, Deuce, and Epel: *watching MC as they take care of the baby dragon*

MC: *using a soft brush to pet the dragon*

The baby dragon: Krrrrmmm...

MC: *chuckles*

Ace, Deuce, and Epel: ...

Epel: He's so comfortable with you.

Deuce: I'm surprised the teachers have allowed you to bring him to class.

Ace: Is it because he's from Briar Valley?

MC: Maybe.

The baby dragon: *goes to snuggle against them*

Ace: How long is he going to stay with you?

MC: I don't know. I'm still waiting an update from Crowley.

Crowley: Queen Maleficia will be providing you with a stipend.

MC: ...

MC: Huh?

Crowley: She is pleased with your service and eagerly anticipates how you will care for the baby dragon.

MC: ...

MC: Do I need to make weekly reports of the expenditures?

Crowley: Oh, no need to worry about that! You're welcome to use it as you see fit.

MC: Alright. It's reassuring to hear that I won't need to worry about budgeting the modest allowance you're providing us.

Crowley: Oh, um, I was actually planning to—

MC: *gives him a stern glare*

Crowley: ...

Crowley: Of course! I would continue to support you financially! That's how generous I am!

Sam: Good day, little imp! What can I get for you?

MC: Hello, Sam. Do you sell baby dragon food?

Sam: ...

Sam: Yes! We have them in stock!

MC: Great, and I'll buy some frozen snacks as well.

The baby dragon: Krrr! *flaps his little wings*

MC: But you're not eating all of them at once, or you'll have a tummy ache.

The baby dragon: *smiles* Krrr!

Sam: *chuckles* He listens to you well, little imp!

Resume HCs [7]

Upon assuming the throne as king of Briar Valley, many things were expected of Malleus.

His marriage to a human was definitely NOT one of those things.

Well, it's not like any of those opinions matter.

Fortunately Queen Maleficia on the other hand doesn't seem bothered about it or about Malleus imminent marriage with MC, Lilia and Silver are happy, also as Sebek.

The royal wedding was an event. For a variety of reasons, you can imagine.

MC and Malleus have a daughter together named Aurora. A few years later they had twin sons: Magnus and Kyrval.

He planned to go far away even before graduation, but something made him rethink it... this "something" is Malleus, Silver and MC.

Of course, he didn't want all the work of Briar Valley to fall on him like it had been all these years. Fortunately, with Malleus taking the throne, changes would come. Good changes, he hoped.

After marriage, he was booking a house in a more remote location, but close to the essential points.

He is a stay-at-home husband, and he is happy that way.

Silver was happy for his father. He believes that Lilia deserves to be happy, and if MC makes him happy, it's everything fine.

MC and Lilia have triplets, all girls: Arista, Aisha and Adela. Lilia said he wanted they all to have an "A". The reason? He said he would say it on their 16th birthday.

He officially became a royal guard after graduation and years of training.

He was fine and happy with it. Following the calling he had been trained to be his whole life. And with that, so was his girlfriend, MC.

He wanted to have a house first and foremost, one he bought with his own money.

When he succeeded, the marriage proposal was the next step.

Lilia was supporting him in every way, and that was enough for him. The same for Malleus.

He and MC have a daughter: Hanna.

Like Silver, Sebek took his post as royal guard proudly.

He introduced his girlfriend to his family. His parents and older siblings were happier than ever, the same could not be said for Baul... but Sebek was already prepared for this. He didn't care. He would marry MC, and that would be that.

After the proposal, he went looking for a house.

He was happy and cheerful to give you the news. He had to get a house closer to the castle to carry out his duties, but valuing MC's safety, he decided to get a little more hidden one.

MC and Sebek have two children: a boy named Ivan and a girl named Amelie.

here they are!

twst apocalyptic future au

Gorgon(Lisha) - Blot Queen, ruler of the Phantom Sea that surrounds the Island of Woe

Malleus Draconia - King Of Thornes, Ruler of Briar Valley

Idia Shroud - Tartarus's Guardian(together with Ortho of course) S.T.Y.X.'s last Leader

[smokesandsonatas]

wait so do all of the in-laws want grandchildren…?

I don't see all of the TWST in-laws pushing their sons to have children. But some of them, due to differing circumstances, might encourage or even require (You) Yuu and their son to have children.

Here's a list of characters that I think may face such expectations from their families:

Draconia Family: Malleus is one of the last known surviving members of the Draconia bloodline, alongside his grandmother, the current queen of Briar Valley. There are only 2 Draconias left, as far as we know. As royalty in the fae world, lineage is crucial for both political stability and the continuation of magical traditions. It would be expected that Malleus, upon marriage, should have children to secure the continuation of the Draconia line and ensure that the legacy of the fae kingdom persists. His family—and the broader fae community—might consider it his royal duty to produce an heir to maintain the kingdom's strength and heritage. Ensuring that they will still have a Draconian ruler should time come to pass.

Shroud Family: The Shroud family carries a heavy legacy of responsibility and duty, they need to continuously manage S.T.Y.X. As keepers of Tartarus/Phantoms, tied to life and death, it’s likely that they would expect a successor. In the case of Idia, his introverted nature might make this pressure even more overwhelming. I imagine Idia might be reluctant to bring another Shroud into the world given their curse. However, the need for a capable heir to continue the Shroud family’s responsibility is expected of him.

Kingscholar Family: As a member of the royal family of Sunset Savanna, Leona’s position as the second prince places him in a complicated situation. Though he is not the crown prince, there might still be an expectation for him to have children, especially if something happens to the direct heir (If Falena's direct line, Cheka is affected). Royal families typically focus on ensuring the continuation of their bloodline, and it does not exempt him from the weight of these expectations. There could be pressure from his family to contribute to the royal line’s security, ensuring the Kingscholar's leadership for future generations.

Al-Asim Family: The Al-Asim family is one of immense wealth and power, with a significant focus on maintaining their influence and control over their business empire. As the heir to this massive fortune, Kalim is likely to face pressure to marry and have children to secure the family’s continued prosperity. Having an heir would not only ensure the Al-Asims remains powerful but would also provide continuity in leadership, safeguarding the family’s wealth and influence across generations.

Ashengrotto Family: Though Azul's family is well, 'normal' in this context, there may be societal or even personal expectations for him to have an heir, particularly if his business empire continues to grow. Azul, particularly his maternal lineage are notable mages in the Coral sea. I imagine there will be unsaid pressure for him to continue his Ashengrotto line. He is a shrewd businessman and Azul may view having an heir as securing a legacy, someone to inherit and manage the empire he will build in the future. His goal to have an heir is maybe more of a personal ambition rather than familial or societal demands.

Leech Family : The Leech twins come from a very different perspective, the other chaotic, while the other one relishes in chaos. It is said that their family manage successful businesses in both land and sea. If we consider the Leech family as akin to mobsters or powerful figures in the merfolk world, their business operations likely extend across various places, possibly using both legal and less-than-legal means to expand their influence. With such a network, there is a strong sense of obligation to ensure that the family's control and legacy continue into the next generation. In this case, Floyd and Jade, despite their chaotic nature, would be expected to contribute to the family line to preserve the power structure their family has built.

Or Jade, and Floyd would just want to have children just for the fun of it. Who knows, really. ;))

tag by @hanafubukki

since we never heard the term child of man used by anyone in Briar Valley (like the last tag implied even present day Baul still uses "humans" to refer to humans and in consequence thats what Sebek often uses as well, what if that term "child of man" is only used/made up by Lilia himself then that term just passed through Malleus?

We know that Lilia has some positive metaporical view of humans (I dont remember if it came from Levan, but its the parts where Lilia refers to humans as "neighbours of faes") he has many phrases like that in the present day, and he rarely use "human" now unlike his General Lilia-self, and we know that Lilia also generally views everyone around him as "children", so maybe its possible that "child of man" term is made by Lilia himself? (like the term just came from his softer view on humanity and his general view that everyone is just too young for him) and Malleus just learned from him that thats how you address a human (that you dont know)?

and thats why Sebek still uses "humans" because Baul didnt change how he referred to "humans", while Malleus used "Child of Man" bcs he learned it from Lilia (who might be the fae where that term originated(?))🤔

some little realization i had, but since when did briar faes referred to humans as "children of man?"

(im not talking about faes irl generally calling humans as children in myths btw) I'm realizing this bcs in present day TWST we can see that Lilia and Malleus often refers to any human as "child/children of man", but all the briarland characters like Meleanor, Baul, and General Lilia didnt call us like that, they referred to us as humans ("ningen") not child of man ("hito no ko")

even Meleanor's line when she recognized Silver and co as humans, only said "who are those children?" not children of man like how Malleus usually does address a group of humans

and even the day fairies (of knight of dawn) didnt call humans as children of man either, cant remember if anyone on fairy gala used this term either though-- 💀

so for faes, humans was historically called as only "humans" but now theres a more softer term for them like "child of man"?

i feel like it can be connected to the fact that humans used to call mages as witches in TWST. So maybe for fae society, humans were just called humans (often associated with unpleasantness bcs faes dont like their behaviour), but now faes are referring to them as "child of man" maybe to erase that practice of being derogatory now to humans?? Like same thing that happened between humans and mages(witches)

[plutosring]

I think about Malleus everyday.

Ur like me with Deuce

TWST PARENTS! Leech, Draconia and Kingscholar!!

First of all, I must warn you that these designs may change in the future, either because the game presented us with the official designs, or just because I really wanted to change... Or I could reuse these designs for these characters! Given that warning...

Guys, gals, and non-binary pals. I present to you, the Leech, Draconia, and Kingscholar families!

Mr and Mrs Leech attract as much attention as their children, who at first may give off a friendly and calm image... But, they are Floyd and Jade's parents, and they are certainly hiding some things. They are an extremely passionate couple, much to the misfortune of their children (who would rather be anywhere else than witnessing their parents exchanging vows of love). Floyd and his mother have very similar personalities, of course Mrs. Leech knows how to mask her real feelings better than her son. And Jade grew up having a similar personality to his father, who knows very well how to get what he wants and who to manipulate to achieve his goals.

Lady Maleficia, certainly a mysterious and emblematic figure who rarely appears publicly these days… Maybe this has something to do with Meleanor's death? She doesn't seem to make contact with anyone other than Malleus or Lilia (with whom she has a complicated relationship) and the Briar Valley Senators.

King and Queen Kingscholar The royal family has many interesting stories, especially when it comes to the youth of the king and queen and their little adventures before they had their children, Falena and Leona Kingscholar. The king is described by many as a kind leader, but who also tends to be strict… In order to maintain peace in the kingdom. The queen has always been described as a determined and courageous woman. Before being crowned queen, she was part of the royal guard and was considered one of the most powerful warriors in the kingdom. Due to his father's illness, Falena had many responsibilities imposed on him from a very early age, and he often felt insecure and uncertain about his decisions… The good thing is that he often had his mother by his side to help and support him in difficult times. Leona has always been more attached to his mother.

WELL…. IT WAS QUITE A LOT.

And I'm still going to draw pictures of other members of the TWST families, so please bear with me a little… I'm going as fast as I can! I still have some ideas I want to explore with these characters, so maybe you'll see them more often!

I hope you like them!… And as always, share any headcanons you have, I always have fun reading them~
