New oc concept:
Talulah Dunn daughter of Tweedledum
Talilah (pronounced Dalilah but replaced the D with a T) Dunn, daughter of Tweedledee.
They're as opposite as opposite can be, dorm together like the other Wonderland kids dorm together, and they're cousins like the Crumb cousins.
Talilah doesn't mind her story; she embraces her destiny because their story isn't harmful or evil. Talulah hates it. She's more of a bookworm and sticks to her smarts, offended by the mere fact anyone would consider her dumb. She believes she has a choice and refuses to sign the storybook altogether. Talilah is justifiably upset because she has done everything with her cousin. They are inseparable, and to think her cousin won't join her in their story is... Well, it's unimaginable!
If I were to plop them into the story, it would have to be after Way to Wonderland, like how Courtly got to go to Ever After High.
I really should just make an eah fic atp

About Talulah & Talilah
First of all, I found this really nice character creator for Ever After High. I will say that the functionality of the fabrics doesn't exist anymore because it functioned long ago on Adobe. It's still pretty nice, and you can do much with it.
Talilah Dunn, daughter of Tweedledee
Tumblr media
Her father raised her in the White Queen's court, and she looks up to WQ tremendously for this. WQ is a mother in her eyes, one she will do anything to please, including signing the story book of legends. As far as she knows, the story and legacies of Wonderland (other than the oysters and the carpenter) aren't violent, nor do they lead to certain doom. As far as she is concerned, she's more than happy to help Alistair on his way through the wonderlandiful world through the rabbit hole.
She's kind and loving to her friends and studies hard for her princess classes. She may not be the next in line for a royal throne, but good kingdom management is essential. For whoever the next White Queen will be, she wants to be their royal advisor. She wants to give back to WQ's court as much as possible, including helping with whatever beef WQ has with the Red Queen.
In her spare time, she sews and sings to herself. On occasion, she stares wistfully out her dorm window and sighs. Sometimes, she waits for one of the princely students to walk under the window and ask her what's wrong. She knows she's not a princess but wants to be treated like one. When she and her father were invited by WQ to Ever After High, she accepted that she would have to abandon all things that tied her to Wonderland. Her mannerisms changed, and her riddles slowly faded as she assimilated into the Kingdom of Ever After.
She and her father live in Book End and frequently visit the Mad Hatter's Haberdashery and Tea Shoppe. Her dad is happy to sit and talk with the Mad Hatter, but Talilah is uncomfortable sitting and talking with Maddie. She thinks she must suppress essential parts of herself so that others can like her and view her as worthy of princess treatment. During her first year, she had a little crush on Daring, but it was squashed when she heard that Apple and Daring were destined to be together in their destinies. (She doesn't know that Apple and Darling are together).
On Cupid's radio show, she anonymously confessed that she had a crush on Hopper, but he was too busy looking at someone else to notice, and it was a secret she would take to her grave. But she'll grin and bear her destiny because her silly dreams of being a princess in a big, fancy castle are just dreams.
Talulah Dunn, daughter of Tweedledum
Tumblr media
On the other hand, Talulah's father raised her in the Red Court. She learned to play chess and crossed swords with some Chess Knights. She looks up to the Red Queen and views her as a mother. She was kind enough to allow her and her father to stay with her court.
Her father stayed back in Wonderland and sent her to Ever After High due to EQ's curse on Wonderland. She would have stayed with her father if she had had it her way. Ever After is new and strange. The people don't speak in riddles and give her weird looks. What's even worse is that Talilah refuses to talk in riddlish. Talulah is essentially stranded, but the Mad Hatter's Haberdashery is a place to escape all the confusing, un-wonderlandiful things.
Tweedledum & Tweedldee are known for being loveable idiots in the story of Alice in Wonderland, known all over Ever After. So, students treat her as if she doesn't know what she's talking about. It's suffocating how they think she's stupid. She picks up their customs quickly but learns that if she buries her head in a book, no one will ever bother you. While her cousin is chumming it up with girls in frilly skirts, she's tucked in the library half-heartedly listening to the Step Sisters scold someone for talking or making noise.
She's taken out most books about Wonderland, homesick for a cursed and cut-off world. She's angry at both Milton Grimm and the Evil Queen for that. On a similar note, she does not get along with Milton Grimm. He assumed Wonderland students would be easy to mold because they were thrown into a new world without familiarity. And boy, he's so wrong. Talulah fights him every agonizing step of the way. She fights him on destiny, she fights him on her school schedule, she fights him about her dorm. She probably has more detentions than Sparrow Hood and Duchess Swan combined.
Outside of the Wonderland gang, she has liked Rosabella Beauty. They often sit together in the library, or Rosa finds her after school loitering around with some of the woodland creatures that appear on campus because of Apple White.

Talilah, staring dreamily at Hopper: Oh, he's so dreamy and perfect. A wonderful prince charming.
Talulah: The jewels frown upon crowns of fools
Talilah:
Talilah, nodding and smiling: Uh... Yeah! Totally
Rosabella: I think she said he's an idiot or you're a fool... Riddlish is not an exact language
