Ever After High: Tea Party Dash VIP NPCs's sitting animations

been a while since I posted any TPD animations, so have these as a treat teehee

[snoopypliot]

"We'll meet again Don't know where Don't know when But I know we'll meet again some sunny day!"

Here is some Rumpel as Bill Cipher because I think it's very fitting considering Rumpel and Bill are so similar

@classicassiopeia Your AU inspired me to make this!

[caliburn-the-sword]

imagine if regina realised she wanted kids like 18 years earlier and accidentally adopted emma swan. how fucking funny would that have been. she goes to ALL this effort to ruin snow's life and then ends up raising her daughter

[lookingforcuteartsss]

Draw some Rumpel and Red Queen!

I think they're both interesting characters

she brought her own hammer 🔨

wish we could know more about them :P

[disacurveball]

I don’t know why Killian Jones is trending but the only thing that matters from that show to me is Sebastian Stan teaming up with Frankenstein and Rumpelstilsken to cause problems. And also the toxic lesbian moms

[therabbitthatpostthings]

I'm not saying Dreamworks should make a spin-off on Fairy Godmother but I do need to know just how deep her influence goes.

Why was making a wish with her so fanciful and pretty yet Rumpelstiltskin has to do his deal-making from a carriage in the woods.

What would she had done if Farquad married Fiona. I personally would love to know how Fairy Godmother would have systematically and economically lead Duloc to ruin just to in sure Charming be the King of Far Far Away.

Was Lillian always supposed to marry Harold? Who is Charming's father? Just how did she become this way?

EAH Dorm Rooms Headcanons pt 22

Teachers Addition

It wouldn't be high school without the teachers and to teach the students passed down legacies.

A good majority of the adults went to Ever After High School and some even became teachers to teach the future generation.

At the end of the day teachers need a place to sleep and we get to see who roomed with who during their high school years.

The teachers' living quarters are between the boys and girls dorm and is smaller than the students' dormitory.

Like the students each room is design to fit the persons personality.

Headmasters Milton and Giles Grimm

Brothers Milton and Giles created Ever After High to teach the future fairy tales their storybook legacies. Overtime Giles notice how some destinies weren't equal even if some were happy ever afters. Giles purposed a way to make everyone happy, but Milton didn't agree. Still traumatized of almost losing Giles when they were children made him deadset on following the pre-determined fates and because he fears he'll lose power. There was a huge fight and Milton cursed his brother to speak Riddlish and banish him to the Vault of Lost Tales.

Being co-headmasters and founders of Ever After High School, Milton and Giles have the biggest rooms in the living quarters.

Milton's room is similar to his office: full of portraits of himself, full of awards, clean, expensive furniture, posh, with a canopy bed, and blue.

Giles's room is similar to the Vault of Lost Tales: messy, papers everywhere, books piled high, mix-matched furniture, and red.

When Milton cursed Giles the police investigated and closed his room up. Milton avoided the room at all crime to not feel guilt for what he had done to his brother.

When, Giles is free from his curse (he didn't get cured in Thronecoming) and Milton is arrested for his crimes, everyone predicts that Giles will throw away Milton's things. But, he doesn't. Giles lets it be, even after his brother's betrayel he refuses to touch the room.

Baba Yaga

Baba Yaga teaches home-evilnomics and facility advisor and though she sides with Headmaster Grimm with destiny she's less strict and willing to show sympathy for those who want change.

Baba Yaga doesn't need a room due to her living in her cottage/office with chicken legs so it changes locations and we've seen it plenty of times in the show.

Her cottage has Slavic designs, candles, spell books, potions, and she has a steering wheel to control the hut.

I believe Baba Yaga's cottage/office is like the shotgun houses from my home state Louisiana. For those who don't know what a shotgun house is it's a narrow house (front to back) and each room is divided for better examples: 1 2 3. The first section is her office, second potion making section, third kitchen, fourth bathroom, and last bedroom.

Mr. Breaker Badwolf

Breaker Badwolf was a student at Ever After High School where he studied (met the love of his life Ruby Hood and had a daughter) and now teaches General Villainy.

Breaker's room resembles a wolf's cave like his niece Ramona's room with rock formations, dim lighting, and leather furniture.

He seems like a hunter to me, so he has a collection of traps and snares in his room.

He keeps a two-way-book to speak with his with, photos of Ruby & Cerise, and letters from her hidden away in his room.

The White Queen

After, evacuating Wonderland due to the Evil Queen's curse, she and her fellow Wonderlanders escaped to Ever After. She got a job at Ever After High School as the new Princessology teacher.

Like all the Wonderlanders her room is messy, but in a organized chaos sort of way.

Her room is styled like a chessboard with Wonderland decor.

Maid Martha Marion

Maid Marion is the teacher of damsel-in-distress class and mother of Sparrow Hood.

Her cartoon and book appearance are drastically different in the show she looks like the perfect damsel while in the book she was described as:

Madam Maid Marian set a black bag under the desk, then removed her cone hat. Her hair was chestnut and cut in a short bob. She was fresh-faced, with no makeup. A few freckles dotted her wide nose and high cheekbones. She wore the colors of the forest, with a moss-green tunic and brown leggings. A pair of green feather earrings completed the woodsy look. Her suede boots looked super comfortable.

Appearances aside Unlike other damsels-In-distress she teaches her students to save themselves.

Her room is a hodgepodge of luxurious queen/ forest decor.

She definitely has exercise equipment and hunting gear like bows and arrows in her room.

Coach Gingerbreadman

Coachh Gingerbreadman is the gym teacher who encourages his students to run faster to avoid crazed bakers.

His room is more of a gym than a bedroom with a treadmill, weights, a rowing machine, and etc.

His room is mostly candy & gingerbread decor with trophies decorating the walls.

Evil Step-Librarians

Evil Step-Librarians (Stephanie and Sissy) are the librarians of the school, one is the mother of Prudence and Charlotte, and Cinderella's stepsisters.

While other staff members have their own room, they share one while at Ever After High School.

Their room has a gaudy luxury feel to it. Like everything cost of money but it looks cheaply made and tacky. And everything is bejeweled.

Since they're librarians the room has multiply bookcases with trashy romance novels.

Prof. Jack B. Nimble

Prof. Jack B. Nimble is the of tall tales and seems to be a popular teacher among the students.

Prof. Jack has a huge candle collection ranging from size, colors, and scents. He has the cleanest smelling room in the teachers' sleeping area.

As you can see by his desk most of the furniture in his room is candle themed.

Because of this the sprinkler system goes off in his room a lot (similar to Faybelle).

He also has a huge bookcase where he keeps a collection tale tales and poems.

Prof. Pied Piper

Prof. Alto Pied Piper is the music teacher and the father of Melody Piper.

His room is similar to the music classroom with many instruments and music books.

He keeps his Imperial Gold Turntables in his room when not using them in his class.

He has a mini fridge stocked with snacks for his pet rats.

He owns a huge collection of flutes and vinyl discs.

Rumpelstiltskin

Rumpelstiltskin teaches chemistry and is one of the least popular teachers in the school due making students spin straw to gold for extra credit.

His room is probably one of the messiest rooms in the teachers' living quarters and screams goblin core.

He has a spinning wheel that he uses to spin his own gold.

Momma and Papa Bear

Ursula and Bernard are a married couple so obviously they share a room together.

Their room is cottage core with bear cave elements.

Like their story sleep in separate beds since Poppa likes his mattress firm and Momma likes her mattress soft.

Ursula teaches cooking class so she has a ton of cookbooks and Bernard teaches beast training and keeps many cages and pet supplies in their room.

Their son, Teddy, sometimes visits them when not in class.

Author's note: We were robbed that they never appeared in the show!

Hagatha

Hagatha is the school's lunch lady who is infamous for her porridge which she adds artificial lumps to.

Can't really say too much about her so maybe insects motifs on her dress she has food and bug decor in her room.

Mrs. Trollsworth

Mrs. Trollsworth is the secretery and Headmaster Grimm's assistant in his schemes.

Being a troll, her room is messy with a mix of grandma parlor room decor.

Mr. Green Thumb - Is the groundkeeper/gardener, due to his small size he most likely has the smallest room in the teachers' living quarters. It most likely full of gardening equipment and indoor plants.

Prof. Card - Prof. Card with the other Wonderlanders evacuated after the Evil Queen's curse, he is the current art teacher at Ever After High School. His room is full of art supplies and has a few weapons since he was a guard.

Prof. Knight - Prof. Knight teaches Hero Training and is one of the oldest teachers in the school who still remembers the art of knighthood. His room is decorated with suits of armor, swords, and horse decor.

Well, that's all the staff at Ever After High School!

[lookslikethatsallthetimewehave]

How was Rumpelstiltskin able to do the things he did while trapped in the Queen's dungeon? 

MY question is how RQ was able to defeat and trap him in the dungeon at all, when he has magical powers.

Theory: The special pink lock on the cells block magic. That's why he couldn't escape the cell with his powers.

Then when the King went down there one day, maybe to collect money or something, Rumpel tricked him into crying, short-circuiting the lock on his cell and allowing Rumpel to escape.

Near the end of the island he teleports the player back to his cell. He can use magic in it since the lock's broken.

The Beginning 

Rumpel was trapped by the Red Queen in her treasury/dungeon.

Sometime after, RQ went off to outer space. 

The middle 

Rumpel somehow frees himself from the dungeon.

He kidnaps the King, and interacts with Snow White, Little Red Riding Hood, and Cinderella in different ways to mess with their happy endings.

Rumpel tells a random adventurer that he'll fix everything if they learn and tell him his name. 

The player helps these characters, learns his name in the process, and tells Rumpel his name 3 times.

Rumpel is now able to leave the island due to his name being said 3 times...

For some strange reason, Rumpel couldn't leave the island unless someone said his name three times in a row... Maybe he was cursed, and that was the only way to break it.

That was his main goal, to have his curse broken so he could leave the island.

I'm assuming the RQ cursed him, so he couldn't cause havoc on other islands too.

[depressedstressedlemonzest]

Just had to get this grin. Robert Carlyle is so handsome.

Ooh his angry face is back.

It just hurts to admit that.

Who do you think?

Angry mixes with heart eyes.

Thank you.

The Chronicles of the Dark One: Domestic Battles

Chapter 81: Final Goodbyes

He sent Hook to wait in isolation for the sun to set and his life to come to an end. He had many other things to do in order to prepare for the night. At least, he thought he did. But then he started to go down the checklist once more. Belle was still at their house, probably preparing herself, but a wave of his hand at home would see all he had to do done in a heartbeat. Things were prepared for the ceremony tonight. He had his dagger, just as he always did since Zelena, and never would be again after tonight. After tonight, he wanted to stop on some bridge in the middle of nowhere in the darkest part of the night and cast it off, never to be seen again. The hat was ready; charged and waiting to harness the energy of those it had consumed. Hook's heart was safely tucked away, just like the person himself. The spell tonight required no other ingredients, no other talismans, nothing fancy, just power and a sacrifice.

And so, he sat there. In the back of his shop, he sat there looking around the place that he'd had a soft spot for since…maybe the beginning. He did love this place. It was dusty and cluttered, much like his mind. But in the same way, it also contained the answers to so many questions and problems in this town. He wondered what would happen to it when they finally realized that he and Belle weren't coming back.

He had a hope, somewhere, in the back of his mind that Henry might adopt it. With all the treasures and magic and artifacts in this place, he'd probably love it. Maybe he'd even find what he had been searching for these last few days, but…

It was likely for that reason that Regina would tear it down.

That gave him an odd smile.

Not the thought of the shop being torn down, that nearly filled him with sadness. No, but the thought of how far Regina might go to keep Henry away from the magic within it…that made him smile.

Of course, that would require she know about what Henry had been doing these last few days. He'd hardly seen Regina since the Snow Queen's arrival. He knew that she'd been distracted by Marian's arrival, but how distracted he wasn't entirely sure. He knew that she and Henry were on the rocks just after he'd been married. But…

Now that he was standing here with nothing to do and thinking things through, he was suddenly overcome with an unexplainable urge to do something he hadn't thought about until now. Say goodbye.

It was selfish, Belle wasn't being given the option to say goodbye to anyone, not the way she would have wanted to if she knew this was likely the last time that she'd see them. He shouldn't have that opportunity either; it was only fair. Besides, he couldn't. The only two people in this town he felt some semblance of connection to were Henry, who would likely go straight to Emma or even Belle if he said goodbye to him. And Regina. Who…

Might actually understand. Maybe. As someone who was currently struggling with happy endings, she might just be the only one to understand and accept him taking Belle across the town line chasing one of his own. And as someone who had struggled with finding a happy ending of his own and was about to get it, he felt oddly responsible for his former pupil. Like he owed her in some way. To give her hope and show her the true way to get what she wanted. Not to mention anoint a successor. Someone in these parts needed to be the big, bad villain. With him gone, it might as well be his student.

And, if Henry was up to something with magic, and Regina didn't know about it, he did feel duty-bound to inform her.

He stood there hemming and hawing, going back and forth between conviction and uncertainty for a long time before he decided to track her down. From a distance, of course, just in case he was wrong and she was busy helping Emma and the others get their friends back to Arendelle. He used his magic to conceal himself, and when he arrived, he found himself…at the town line?

Of all the places she could be, and yet…there she was. There they were. Robin Hood, Roland, and Marian, all huddled together by the town line. Will Scarlett was there, talking to the family under the watchful eye of more Merry Men. And there, in a parked car, keeping her distance but making no attempt to hide herself, was Regina. What an odd sight…

He wasn't sure if it was curiosity or that desire within him that dropped the concealment spell and propelled him forward, into her car.

"I hate goodbyes. Don't you?" he muttered as he closed the passenger side door.

"If you've come here to gloat, I'm really not in the mood," she responded with obvious disdain. Gloat? Over what? Apparently, he just couldn't get his tone right today. Perhaps that was what happened when people got everything they wanted. That would certainly explain the swagger so many heroes like David and Emma had when they walked. "What do you want?"

"Belle and I are taking a trip. I came to bid you farewell."

"Have you been under a rock all day? There's a curse on the town line. If you leave, you can never come back."

Ah…so she knew about that, too. Maybe he would get the goodbye he wanted.

"Hence the goodbye. But before I go, could you pass something on to my grandson? Tell Henry I'll miss him…and his uh…charming attempts at snooping around my shop."

There. He'd done what he needed to do. Informed Henry's responsible party about-

"You knew," Regina muttered.

No, she hadn't just whispered the words; she'd uttered them with surprise! As if…as if she herself hadn't just known what Henry was doing but had been a part of it! Why?

"Oh, I knew. Perhaps you can tell me why?" he asked as calmly as he could muster, wondering just how much of a role Regina had played in turning his own flesh and blood into a spy. Really, she should have known better.

"He was looking for the impossible…my happy ending." Regina let out a small laugh of derision. "The Storybook has me written as a villain, and villains always lose, so…he thought you might have a clue as to who the author is so I can make him change that."

"Intriguing idea," he admitted with honesty. It wasn't a half-bad conclusion his grandson had come to. And because his shop was what it was, seeking out those answers there wasn't the worst idea the boy had ever had. "But, alas, I've no clue as to his identity."

"I know. Villains don't get happy endings."

"It would appear, in your case, that that's true."

In her case, most certainly. He wasn't quite sure what was happening here, but he was slowly beginning to make some assumptions based on her mood and what he could see. He knew that Marian had been touched by a curse from Ingrid, and Regina had been working on healing that. He still smelled magic on Marian, even at a distance; perhaps Regina hadn't gotten it all? Or perhaps it was residual from Regina's magic? It did smell a bit like her, he supposed. Either way, she looked fine as she was, so he could only assume that Robin and Marian, and maybe even Regina, had decided that they couldn't live in this town together given their relationship, and this was their goodbye. It would certainly explain why the Merry Men looked like Less-Than-Merry Men. And why Regina assumed he'd come to gloat when she wasn't in the mood. Perhaps he'd gotten here in the nick of time.

"You and Belle seem…content. How were you able to get one?" Regina asked with a hint of desperation in her tone.

"Because I took it." Or at least he would, in just a few short hours. "And quite frankly, you should stop moping and do the same thing. I mean, if this Marian died, all would be well, would it not?"

Regina looked through the windshield to the woman in question, knowing what he knew full well. She could do it. Here and now. All it would take would be a bit of magic to stop her heart or close her windpipe. They could say she got stung by a bee and it was an allergic reaction, the stress of time travel, an unfortunate side effect of too much magic in her system, anything! It would be so simple! She could have everything she ever wanted, just like him! But…

"That's no longer me," she concluded sadly.

Well, wasn't it a pity for her then…

"Being good doesn't mean good things will happen."

"This sounds like the old Rumpelstiltskin talking. I thought you changed."

"More like evolved. Coming back from the dead and being a slave to the Wicked Witch tends to do that to you. But if you don't think villains can get happy endings, just watch me take one. There's no author of my fate, no Storybook with my destiny. I've been a villain a thousand times over, and yet I'm about to get everything I desire."

She looked at him skeptically, in utter disbelief, and so he reached down and took her hand. He squeezed it tenderly, something he'd rarely let himself be with her. "As unbelievable as it sounds, I want the same for you."

And before he got too sentimental to regret it, he got out of the car and left.

[snoopypliot]

"Let's just say I'm inviting an old royal friend, this one's mother, to tea!"

I missed drawing these two so much, I need to see them again

Also, I included the speed paint for this because I thought it would be fun to show my process

[marychovny]

I asked for some images of Belle and Rumple, but IA gave me Regina or Emma.

[lookingforcuteartsss]

do you think rumple got locked away for messing with rq or her fam in some way?

*please draw a child baron or something and rumple being like imma cause some bushtit*

also @xxgalacticambitionsxx didn't they have the whole theory about rq being the millers daughter fromm the rumplestiltskn fairytale?

One rough comic! It's the first time Baron saw Rumpel (but they didn't really met)

I think Rumpel was not locked up for that, he might have messed with people in the island but not the family, maybe RQ locked her up was to show people that she's a leader strong enough to defeat a magical creature :/

Rumpel had been in the island since Baron was a kid, he knew RQ had a daughter this whole time but Baron didn't really notice his existence until Rumpel decided to possess her

This is the first time Baron sensed there's someone she didn't know in the castle but she didn't care much tho, since she knew she'll ran off one day

Rumpel saw Baron ran off one night, he didn't stop her as he was focusing on escaping the island at that time, plus he thought someday she might be useful (like now)

Anyway I think even though Rumpel sees Baron as a tool for his revenge, he never really wants to hurt her(at least not gonna kill her), he had been there when Baron is a baby (headcanon Rumpel cannot die of age) so yeah he watched her grow up and doesn't really see her as an enemy like RQ

(I'm so bad at designing clothes DX

! Huh I think I haven't read the theory, or maybe I forgot lemme check it out--

[askthefireversecharacters]

For Rumpel: How did you feel about almost getting killed by RQ? Aaaand then Quick Fire saved you? >:D

Rumpelstiltskin: " Ugh, I was hoping to avoid these types of questions, but I guess they'll just keep coming if I avoid them. I was...terrified...Out of all the other close calls I've had with that queen that was the closest she's ever gotten to killing me. I was sure it was the end of the line for me, but it wasn't, thanks to her... "

Rumpelstiltskin: " To this day I still wonder why the hero saved me, I mean, after what I did I wouldn't blame her for even THINKING about leaving me for dead! But she didn't...And I'm thankful for that. "

[acrushedrosestillwins]

Can someone please help me...

In the OUAT Fandom...

In what episode did Regina realize Rumpelstiltskin’s feelings for Belle were more than platonic? That she confronted him about it...
