I was listening to The Devil Wears a Suit and Tie and IMMEDIATELY my mind was like "what if this was a Jade x Reader angst fic where the whole relationship was an EXPERIPENT (instead of the "I was a bet" trope it's "I was a project") and the reader was saying this to him while breaking up. Then afterwards they avoid him and refuse to give him any more reactions until his brother, Trey, and whoever else makes him realize he legit fell in love and ROYALLY FUCKED UP....."
Anyway, I already have too many fic ideas that I've barely started to flesh this out but Jade Lovers EAT UP AND ENJOY UNAGI!!!!

Cyclops Saga
Polyphemus
Survive
Remember Them
My Goodbye
Ocean Saga
Storm

Cast List Some characters were inspired by @werewolfbyknight’s idea for the Au
Odysseus: Jamil
Eurylocus: Ace
Polites: Kalim
Lotus Eaters: Yuu/Grim
Zeus: Malleus
Athena: Leona
Polyphemus: Ortho(overblotted)
Aeolus: Cater
Poseidon: Azul
Circe: Zian (Oc)
Hermes: Ruggie
Tireseus: Idia
Penelope: Y/n
Telemachus: Najama/ Carmon(Child character)
Sirens: Jade
Scylla: Eliza
Calypso: Lilia
Apollo: Rook
Hephaestus: Rollo
Aphrodite: Vil
Ares: Epel
Hera: Riddle
Antinuos: Fellow
Everyone Else: Various
Why Calypso is an Oc
The main reason behind this is because that Circe is the most sexualized character in the show. She had a song dedicated to seducing someone. I don’t feel comfortable sexualizing one of the twst boys like that, but I do feel comfortable doing it with my own character. Also her personality fits the character anyway.

Hi, so I've been listening to alot of music as of late and I came across the song "Mimi's Delivery Sevice" by Good Kid.
If you don't know who they are, they are indie rock band from Toronto that often makes songs with really deep meanings and specific references to pieces of pop culture. For example the song I was talking about, "Mimi's Delivery Service" is based on the movie "Kiki's Delivery Sevice". And it's lyrics tell a story of watching a someone you love lose confidence in themselves. It's an amazing song and the first time I listened to it couldn't help but cry.
I know what you're probably thinking, "Okay, but why is this in the twst tag?" BUT HEAR ME OUT OKAY?
Listening to the song I couldn't help but think of Yuu's and Grims relationship. While Grim never really shows it, I think we all can tell just how Grim loves, admires, and looks up to Yuu.
So imagine his reaction to seeing his once snippy and blunt henchman turn quiet and reserved. A complete 180° of who Yuu wass before. He doesn't understand, how could someone so boisterous and confident in themselves somehow lose that shine?
To Grim Yuu always seemed as though they were untouchable. Yeah they got hurt and made mistakes every now and then but they always bounced back. Never once did they falter.
Compare that to how they look now, curled up in a ball. Their knees held tight against their chest, and pathetic sobs escape their lips amongst hushed gasps. The sight is something he never expected to see from the determined and spirited prefect of Ramshackle. It makes him wonder..
How did this happen?
I can just see Grim singing Mimi's Delivery Service in this situation.

Cater's gonna Cay
In which Alise parodies a song, and Cater overhears
This post contains words that may be objectionable to some readers. They are used in accordance to modern slang, and not to insult or belittle anyone.
"That's so pretty!" Cater exclaimed when Alise slid onto the bench across from him, setting the cupcake on the table in front of her. It was decorated with delicate sugar flowers and a tiny marzipan bluebird. "Wait, don't eat it yet! Let me get a picture."
He picked up his phone, and she moved to get out of the shot, humming "Cater's gonna Cay, Cay, Cay, Cay, Cay … " quietly as she did.
Cater paused and glanced at her confused. "Did you … " He took the picture quickly. "Did you just make up a song about me?"
"Ah, no," Alise answered quickly.
"You did," he grinned at her. "You totally did!"
"I definitely did not!"
"You have a song about Cater?" Mouse asked curiously.
"Noooo!" Alise buried her face in her hands.
"Is there more?" Cater asked, leaning his head on his hand and grinning in delight.
"I didn't write one," she mumbled into her hands. "I just took a song I already know, and changed the words a little. Someone else did the hard part." "I'd really like to hear it," Cater prompted, fidgeting with his phone. "You'd really like to record it," Mouse corrected him.
"That, too," he agreed.
"Fine," Alise moaned, lifting her head. "You ready?"
"I'm ready!" Cater centered Alise in the frame and pressed record.
She started to sing quietly;
He stays out too late Got nothing in his brain
"Hey!" Cater exclaimed, laughing.
Mouse set their fork down. The tune sounded so familiar. What was the song?
Alise shrugged innocently, and sang the next line;
That's what people say, mm-mm
It clicked for Mouse, and they picked up the line after;
That's what people say, mm-mm
He goes on too many dates
Cater grinned a little, and glanced at Trey. Trey raised an eyebrow at him.
But he can't make 'em stay
"What??" Cater yelped.
Alise just shrugged again.
At least that's what people say, mm-mm
And Mouse agreed'
That's what people say, mm-mm
They looked at each other across the table, and sang the bridge together;
But he keeps cruisin' Can't stop, won't stop movin' It's like he's got this music in his mind Sayin' it's gonna be alright
Alise hopped up onto the table, scanning the cafeteria for people;
'Cause Idia's gonna play, play, play, play, play And Cater's gonna Cay, Cay, Cay, Cay, Cay Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake I shake it off, I shake it off
Alise pointed at Leona and mimed napping;
'Cause Leona's not awake, wake, wake, wake, wake
Leona rolled his eyes and proceeded to ignore her. Alise pointed at Trey;
And Trey just wants to bake, bake, bake, bake, bake
"Oh no," he shook his head. "I don't want to be a part of this."
Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake I shake it off, I shake it off He'll never miss a beat He's lightnin' on his feet
Mouse took the next line, adding reassuringly to Cater;
And that's what they don't see, mm-mm
Alise nodded in agreement;
That's what they don't see, mm-mm
He's dancin' on his own
Mouse took backup vocals;
(dancin' on his own) He makes the moves up as he goes (moves up as he goes) And that's what they don't know, mm-mm That's what they don't know, mm-mm
They poth picked up the bridge again
But he keeps cruisin' Can't stop, won't stop movin' It's like he's got this music in his mind Sayin' it's gonna be alright Lilia's gonna fly, fly, fly, fly, fly
Lilia popped in next to Cater, equal parts curious about what was going on and delighted to be included in the nonsense.
And Cater's gonna Cay, Cay, Cay, Cay, Cay Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake I shake it off, I shake it off Vil is serving cunt, cunt, cunt, cunt, cunt
Vil, hearing his name, looked up to protest, but it was too late, and not wrong.
And Rook is on the hunt, hunt, hunt, hunt, hunt
"Mon Dieu," Rook chuckled. "She has a line for everyone!"
Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake I shake it off, I shake it off
"Can we please get off the table, now?" Riddle asked, his voice as strained as his patience.

what if we rewrite the stars?
Reupload from my old acc Jamil x g/n reader angst
Taglist: I’m not sure if this was for a specific project but I remember these people wanting to be tagged for something so lmk if you wish to be removed @xen-blank @edith-is-apparently-a-cat @krenenbaker @cheezy-moon @silvers-numberonefan @minty-bubblegum
A starless sky, endless yet comforting is all you saw, glancing up waiting to meet him. It was a chilly day, windy even. But yet you waited. For him. He was the one who patched your cut in the kitchen ever so graciously. He was the one you bonded with quickly, you pulled him away from Kalim at night and whenever possible. He was the one you love. He was the one. Despite all that, your parents may not agree with you. You’re the crown royal after all. 
“Gem, why’d you call me up here-“
“I know you want me, so who can stop me if I decide you’re my destiny?” You cut him off. Quite bold of you. 
Jamil glanced at you and let out a dejected sigh. You made eye contact with him, refusing to let him out of your sight.
“You think it’s easy, don’t you? Destiny cannot be rewritten, I hate to say it.” 
“What if we’re the first? What if we rewrite the stars?”  You say, glimmering with hope. He’s here in your heart, and you think you're in his.
“No one can rewrite destiny, my love. It’s impossible…” 
All you wanted was to be with him. You wanted all of him. Good days or bad, you wanted him. Nothing can keep you two apart, or so you thought. 
“It’s not impossible.” You attempt to reassure him and partially reassure yourself at the same time. “Say that it’s possible” You say, with a quiver in your voice.
Jamil sat next to you, wrapping his arms around you, he felt warm and smelt like his homemade curry. He pulls you closer to his body, you rest your head on his chest. “It can be possible…just for tonight.” 
Eventually, the sun starts to peak over the horizon in the distance, and you begin to realize your fantasy is coming to an end. 
Jamil removes his arm from around you and places a soft kiss on your cheek. He gets up and begins to leave, as he leaves he tells you. “You know I want you. It's not a secret I try to hide
But I can't have you. We're bound to break and my hands are tied” 
Perhaps, he’s right. No one can rewrite the stars after all…. But the skyscape is endless. The galaxy even. You thought you and him were too.

Congrats on 1600 followers! Can I request a 💖 with Jamil, Leona, and Trey? Reader can be fem. Thank you and congrats again!!
Hi, thank you for the ask!
Follower event: Jamil, Leona, Trey x fem!reader with 💖 "I used to hear a simple song, that was until you came along"
Jamil
He happened to feel as though every day was a repeat of the last. He would wake up, help Kalim with everything throughout the entire day, take care of newer Scarabia students, study for his own classes, attend basketball club meetings, and then repeat. It was hard to feel as though he was losing it, especially when he started to plot against Kalim to take the dorm leader position
This all changed, or at least he felt something change, when you showed up. A magic-less, tad bit clumsy, but fierce dorm leader. You were from a different word apparently, but that didn't scare you from tackling overblot on overblot. You even ended up saving him as well
From there, he felt extremely grateful, not just because you helped him get past the overpowering magic but also because you looked at him for who he was. You treated him with kindness, something servants of famous families didn't receive often.
He slowly found himself falling in love with you. Feeling as though his heart was bursting, he wanted to tell the whole world how much he wanted to be with you. But whenever you went up to him and struck up a conversation, he shut his mouth and awkwardly tried to respond.
You changed his life, though you didn't know it. He felt alive again, and he had to find the courage in himself to tell you how much you meant to him. Until then, he finds himself staring off into the distance while he sits at his desk, daydreaming about you
Leona
Being overshadowed for his entire life, Leona didn't expect great things from himself. At first he was hopeful, he had dreams and goals that he hoped he could achieve through merit. However, that dream faded as time flowed. His overblot situation didn't help very much either
Leona noticed you at the hospital when you went to go check up on him. Sure, at first he only knew you as the herbivore who could conjure a simple spell, but he soon found himself intrigued by you. No matter what situation you were in, you bravely faced it. If anything, it reminded him of what he once wanted to be like
He doesn't talk to you right away, he's emotionally constipated to do that. You might find him looking at you from afar, but most of the time he'll look disinterested. Ruggie instead is tasked to follow you around
Leona thought his life wouldn't change for the better. He would remain as the second-born prince and the dorm leader that tried to sabotage a fae crown prince. However, you made him feel different, you cared for him. You listened to what he had to say, and you never shrank away from him even when he tried to scare you off. If anything, it felt like you genuinely cared for his existence, it was new
Leona doesn't know he has a crush on you, if anything he asks Ruggie if he's sick. Ruggie will laugh and say that the prince is probably lovesick. Will Leona ever get the chance to confess to you? Who knows, maybe surprise him with your feelings if you happen to feel the same way
Trey
You two barely knew each other. You were a new magic-less student who was placed into the worst-quality dorm. Yet, you weren't scared of Riddle, of Malleus, of anyone. You were brave but you also had a big heart, things that Trey admires
His life before you came into it was pretty mundane, and it seemed like whatever he tried to do to help Riddle fight his past was pointless. You didn't just change Riddle's life but his as well by giving him the courage to confront his childhood friend. You also happened to be someone who saw him as someone more than a vice-dorm leader who was always siding with Riddle
A small detail he loved about you was that you appreciated all of the hard work he did as well. It was small, sure, just a few papers Riddle asked him to fill in and baking. But you were always happy to join him when making pastries and sharing stories about your life from a different world. He soon found himself falling in love with you.
Cater will be the first one to point out that Trey has been acting differently. He was always pretty laid back, but this time Trey was a little more nervous whenever you were around. He tried to act cool, but Cater could see the way a slight tint of red rose on Trey's cheeks and how Trey would stutter a bit whenever you talked to him. Cater will confront the vice-dorm leader about this revelation right after you leave that day, to which Trey shouts "No I am not having a crush!"
Of course Trey is, he just doesn't realize it. You changed his life, even though you might think it was a small impact you still did something. He wants to spend more time with you, and he might find the courage to ask you one day

Tried to change the ending, Peter losing Wendy
(a Malleus x reader songficlet)
cardigan - Taylor Swift
0:01 ❍─────── 3:59
Tumblr media
Spoilers for chapter 7
♫ When you are young, they assume you know nothing ♫
It has grown quite tiresome to get thrown at students having overblots since being at Night Raven. Of course, you wanted to help your friends get through them, but peaceful moments seemed rare.
♫ Sequin smile, black lipstick ♫
Even in the craziness you managed to fall in love with the fae prince. He was your foundation of support and is always there to reassure you when you have doubts about yourself. Malleus loves his family as well— but things aren’t as picture perfect lately. His father figure wanting to leave isn’t exactly the greatest news someone would want to hear.
♫ I knew you. Your heartbeat on the High Line. Once in 20 lifetimes, I ♫
Lilia growing weak is devastating to come to terms with for the prince. He can live for centuries, but can one truly live forever?
♫ And when I felt like I was an old cardigan under someone's bed. You put me on and said I was your favorite ♫
Malleus felt so grateful for you. The other students seemed to fear him. But not you. For you found beauty in him
♫ You drew stars around my scars.But now I'm bleedin' ♫
Silver’s emotions pushed Malleus over the edge. The fae wants to end everyone’s pain. His solution isn’t the right way to go about it though.
♫ 'Cause I knew you. Steppin' on the last train. Marked me like a bloodstain, I ♫
You were taken aback by your lover’s overblot form at first. He looked stunning. You didn’t stay in awe for long. Dread filled you as you would once again be trying to fix an overblot situation. But this was your boyfriend and you’d do anything to return him to his regular state of mind. Things did not seem good. Thorns threatening every corner of the school. Were the students around you falling asleep? Thankfully whatever he was doing to them wasn’t working on you just yet.
♫ I knew you. Tried to change the ending. Peter losing Wendy, I ♫
You pushed your fears down and pleaded with him to wake the students up. He kept insisting it’s what’s best. His reasoning is, no one can be hurt if they are asleep to not be aware.
♫ I knew you. Leavin' like a father. Running like water, I ♫
Malleus was feeling secure now that he was sure he was protecting everyone. Lilia would be going nowhere on his watch.
♫ And when you are young, they assume you know nothing ♫
You were feeling almost helpless in this situation, but giving up on him is never going to be an option. Painfully, you knew there would be a chance you would fall into a sleep. You just hoped you had enough time to reverse things before then.

Found Yet Still Lost
Lilia’s son, Dusk, was his world, yet one day he disappeared without a trace.
I was writing this off and on for about two months. Motivation is a funny thing.
This is a songfic (Two Birds on a Wire) about character I made for @return-to-twisted-wonderland’s prompt, Dusk Vanrouge, Lilia’s oldest son. Who I’ve also drawn and posted on this blog.
Tumblr media
Two birds on a wire
One tries to fly away
And the other-
Watches him close on that wire
He says he wants to as well, but he is a liar
“I’ll believe it all. There's nothing I won't understand. I'll believe it all. I won't let go of your hand.”
Lilia felt nice as he just got to relax. He got to sit under the tree and watch his four-year-old son play. All the while songbirds sang, squirrels scattered around, and even bigger forest creatures like foxes and deer came around to see all that was happening.
His son, Dusk, was his absolute joy. Dusk looked extremely similar to him. Well as similar as a kid could look to an adult. He had the same long black hair Lilia has, just without the long red streaks. His eyes were also a bright lilac that were always so full of life.
“Daddy!” Lilia looked up to see Dusk repeatedly jumping.
Lilia got up and floated over to his son. “What is it, little bat?”
Dusk pointed at him with a pout. “That! How do you do that?” He tried jumping a few more times.
“Do what?” Lilia looked at himself and noticed his feet floating off the ground. “Are you trying to float?”
“Yeah.” Dusk nodded.
“Oh! All you need to do is use your magic to go fwoom and keep yourself up.” Lilia only earned a confused stare. He sighed and lifted his son up. “Ok, here we go! How does this feel?
Dusk giggled and wrapped his arms around his dad. “Cool! I can't touch the ground!”
“Alright. Try to remember how this feels. Then you have to try to make the same feeling with your magic. Got it?”
He nodded again.
Lilia lowered his son to be just a bit above the ground. “Alright. Try to lift yourself up.”
Dusk wiggled a bit, trying to move his body instead of using his magic. But just as Lilia was about to correct him, Dusk became lighter. He was floating. He didn’t lift himself back to the original height, but his feet were off the ground from his own magic.
“See! You did it! I knew you could.” Lilia was so happy! His son was doing something so impressive, and doing it on his own. Lilia started to release his grip to see how Dusk could fair on his own.
Sadly, the happy moment didn’t last too long. It might have been Lilia releasing his grip or Dusk just focusing more on the fact he did it rather than continuing the magic. But Dusk lost his concentration causing him to fall. And he wasn’t too high from the ground, he would have been higher if he just jumped, but it was sudden. Sudden enough to at least spook the young kid and make him tear up.
Lilia internally cursed at himself for being too quick to think his son could keep himself up unsupported. He quickly picked up Dusk and glanced over for any injuries, just in case. Luckily there weren't any. Dusk was just scared.
“Oh, that was a fall, wasn't it?” Lilia’s only response was more crying. “Don't worry, you're safe, but that probably was scary. Huh?”
Dusk clung and buried his face into Lilia’s shirt, mumbling something Lilia couldn't quite make out.
“Yeah, it probably was scary. I believe it. Don't worry, I understand.” Lilia carefully placed his hand over his son’s. “If it helps, I can hold your hand for as long as you need.”
Dusk slightly lifted his head off of Lilia’s shirt to quietly say something. “Daddy…”
“Hmm?”
“I wanna try again.”
Two birds on a wire.
One says “C’mon”
And the other says “I'm tired.
The sky is overcast and I'm sorry.
One more or one less.
Nobody’s worried.”
“I’ll believe it all. There's nothing I won't understand. I'll believe it all. I won't let go of your hand.”
He was nowhere. Dusk was nowhere. Lilia woke up a few months ago and went to wake up his son only to find him missing.
There were no signs of exit or entry. If someone broke in or Dusk broke out, there would have been signs, or Lilia, with all his general training, would have been able to notice something. There weren't even any signs there was any magic used that would have been able to teleport someone in or out. There was nothing.
Despite that, Lilia couldn't stop his search. He spent countless days and nights using all his energy to search, search until he passed out from sheer exhaustion. Lilia even brought some soldiers he was close to help, but as more and more time passed, they started to lose hope that his son could be found. Lost hope that his son was even still alive.
The only ones who kept searching with the same vigor were himself and his closest friend, Baul Zigvolt. Both of them would do anything to find Dusk, no matter how much time passed and no matter how much sleep they were missing out on.
“General Lilia!” Baul’s voice, as loud as ever, snapped Lilia out of his thoughts. “We found no leads. Again…”
“We simply need to search somewhere else. I'll start looking south. Keep others looking here while I scout ahead.” Lilia knew how he probably sounded. He probably sounded just as empty and drained as he felt. He's seen how hollow he looked just by seeing his reflection.
“General. We have plenty of skilled people who can scout. You have been going for days straight. Fresh eyes would have an easier time.”
“I’m fine. Not to mention you are running low on sleep yourself.”
“I am low on sleep, yes, but you haven't had any for the past few days. Lilia, I'm worried for you. Not only as a subordinate.”
“I have no time for emotional talk. Either you have something important to say or I'm leaving to scout further.”
“Your health is important! I've found you passed out enough times to be worried. You of all people should know troops who aren't in their best health need to rest otherwise they risk any upper hand or even level playing field they might have.”
Lilia does completely understand, but he so understands risking some things for an important goal. What general would he be if he didn't risk himself first? What father would be if he didn't give everything he had? “Again, I'm fine-”
“You are far from fine. I know you are going through a lot right now, but I'm not going to stand by here while a dear friend compromises his health.”
“Baul-”
“Whatever you tell me I’ll listen and believe it! I will do anything in my power to try to understand anything you're going through! I won't leave your side if you wish!” For as strong and loud as Baul was he truly did care for those around him, in his own way. It would seem like a bad trait for a soldier to have, but he made it work.
Lilia took in a sharp breath. Baul was only trying to support his friend. Lilia was better than snapping at someone who was just getting in his way. “As I said before, I am fine. Now I'm going.” Lilia immediately started to walk away. He had no time for this. He would find his son.
Two birds of a feather
Say that they're always gonna stay together
But one’s never going to let go of that wire
He says that he will, but he's just a liar
Lilia had gotten more or less used to his life now. Malleus, Silver, and Sebek have created quite a lot of fun for a man in his old years. Even now, he was in a third entrance ceremony as the Vice Housewarden of Diasomnia. Though he was more focused on wondering what dorm Sebek would be in, hoping he’d be in the same Diasomnia with the three of them who were already there.
The ceremony got even more interesting when a small cat jumped out of nowhere and created quite the hubbub. It called itself Grim. Lilia should remember that name. Seeing the chaos unfold was probably the most fun he'd been a part of for a long while.
He was definitely sure he made the right choice to come to Night Raven with Malleus. Malleus got experience socializing with non-fae and he got himself some relaxing time in his older years. What fun.
Grim was definitely causing a mess, though. While Riddle and Azul offered to help catch him, they seemed like they were doing more fighting than actually catching. While it was still amusing, it's best that someone stepped in.
Lilia was seconds from helping when someone, disguised in their ceremonial robes, beat him to it. He grabbed the cat by the scruff and spoke as if venom was dripping from his mouth. “If others here can't catch this mangey thing, I wonder why I should listen to them.”
Lilia already felt bad for whatever dorm the mystery person ended up with. He already seemed like a bit of a powder keg. A free spirit, to say it nicer.
Even hidden behind the robes, he seemed short. Isn’t it a typical thing that short pople have a bigger personality? He might have even been related to Rosehearts, someone known for exactly that. Actually, looking closer, he seemed to be closer to Lilia’s height.
The mystery kid handed Grim over to Headmaster Crowley, who quickly handed it over to a very unimpressed Professor Crewel. No words left the professor’s mouth but he gave a murderous stare strong enough for the students seated around him to get shivers. Luckily he did actually leave to take Grim outside and presumably off campus.
Meanwhile, the kid sat back in his seat. Lilia watched him as the kid seemed restless and gave off the same venom in an aura that was in his words.
While Lilia watched, he noticed long black hair and glimpses of lilac eyes that made memories of a time long gone flash through his head. No. Dusk had been gone for years.
But that sore spot definitely never left. He still hasn't ever mentioned Dusk to anyone who wasn't already aware of his son’s existence. He wanted to, but he just couldn't.
Lilia was going to look away and check on Sebek when the kid was told to stand in front of the Dark Mirror.
“State your name.” The face inside the mirror wasted no time in starting the process.
“Dusk Vanrouge.”
There is no way Lilia heard him right. No, his son had been missing for almost two centuries. Can his son just come back after so long?
The truth was soon proven when after the kid got sorted into Savannaclaw, he turned to head back to his seat. That's when Lilia got a full view of his face. A face that looked identical to his.
Lilia was sent into a daze for the rest of the ceremony. He was pretty sure even Silver, who he brought to make sure he had help if the new dorm members got too out of hand, noticed.
The end of the ceremony soon came, and Lilia told Silver to line up all the Diasomnia members, and that he'd be right back. Silver was a bit confused, but agreed. As soon as he made sure Silver was doing ok with lining everyone up, he went to find Dusk.
His son came back. His son came back! It's been so long, and now he could finally have the final piece of his family.
Lilia found Dusk standing slightly away from the other Savannaclaw students. He put his hand on Dusk’s shoulder, getting snappy words as Dusk turned around.
“What do you wa-” Once Dusk turned around, Lilia could see the recognition in his eyes. “Dad? Is that you?”
Lilia immediately pulled Dusk into a hug. His eyes completely welled up with tears. His son was alive and came back to him. Dusk was alive and came back to him.
Sadly, that happiness only lasted a few seconds. “Fa-Lilia, who is this?” Silver walked up to them, and the truth hit Lilia all at once.
He never told anyone about Dusk. He never told any of his other sons about Dusk.
“Oh, Silver!” Lilia snapped to face Silver. He knew this wouldn't sit well with anyone. Their dad had a secret and missing oldest son who he never mentioned once. “This is Dusk… my son.”
“You have another son?”
“Another?” Dusk looked at Silver then Lilia. “What is he talking about?”
“This is Sliver… my other son…”
Silver spoke back up. “You had a son before me? Where has he been? Why didn't you mention him?”
Lilia tried to get a word in, but Dusk cut him off. “You didn't mention me? Not once? Were you trying to forget me?!”
Again Lilia tried to get in another word but was cut off. By Silver this time. “Do Malleus and Sebek know about this?”
“There are others?”
Another chance to respond. Another chance stripped away as Leona Kingscholar’s voice came through calling all Savannaclaw students back to their dorm.
Dusk looked between Leona and his family, specifically Lilia, before letting his face settle into a glare. “I’m leaving.”
“Dusk, wait!”But Lilia’s voice did nothing to stop his son walking away. He looked back to Silver, whose face was confused and upset. “Silver, I didn’t mean to keep this a secret. I sw-“
Silver held up his hand. “I need to think for a bit.” Then he to walked away, his arms hugging his body.
Now Lilia was left alone as tears stung his eyes before falling.
Two birds on a wire
One tries to fly away
And the other-
Watches him close from that wire
He says he wants to as well, but he is a liar
Dusk’s presence and his relationship to Lilia had become well known on campus. It’s pretty hard to keep a loud conversation like what they had secret, and even if they did, the two of them look visibly related.
It was hard to watch Dusk around the school. It was even harder when they made eye contact and his son’s face turned into a scowl. And rubbing salt in the wound, Malleus, Silver, and Sebek all started avoiding him too.
Lilia couldn’t blame any of them. He kept his first son secret for so long, and even if he didn’t outright lie, it built his other three son’s world on a mistaken concept. Simply because an old man couldn’t control his grief, he made others suffer. He wouldn’t want to see himself either.
Yet, Lilia can’t bring himself to leave any of them alone. Malleus, Silver, and Sebek are all in the same dorm as him, so they can’t fully avoid each other, but Lilia found himself almost tailing Dusk. If Dusk was in the courtyard, he was too. Just watching his son from a distance.
Lilia knew he was making things worse. He should have stopped. He should have stopped a long while ago. But again, he was an old man experiencing the pain of losing his kid, his life, and this time it was happening four times at once.
He would stop eventually. He would stop when he was sure Dusk was settled in. He would stop when he didn’t feel the crushing need to see his sons safe and sound, even if it was at a distance because the same sons hated him.
Two birds on a wire
One tried to fly away
And the other-

What would happen if reader pursued Leona by singing Never Ever Getting Rid Of Me?
Now this is a fun idea! Happy to do it! Sorry it took so long though. Had a bunch of other asks and ideas to get to. Thank you for your patience!
super fun song! Go check it out if you haven’t already! Also lazy Leona with an energetic and stubborn s/o is an amazing dynamic!
for once mc was the one in-charge of the music potion. Recently they had been acting more and more on their feelings for the lazy dorm leader Leona. Despite the trials he went through and being talked behind others backs with a power no one appreciated, he still found pride in himself and the energy to stand up for himself.
mc always admired that aspect of him, they could see a soft side under his tough guy act. They were going to get it through his thick skull that they weren’t going anywhere unless it’s in a relationship with him. And they had the perfect song for the occasion from their world.
They let themselves into the lounge area noticing Leona taking his usual afternoon nap by the side of the water. They quickly pull out a bouquet from behind their back and drop it in front of the lion man with a smirk. he growls as he opens his eyes to see you and the flowers just in front of himself. His eyes widened before narrowing. “This supposed to be some sort of gift herbivore?” They shake their head before pulling out a potion and downing it. He pulled himself off of the ground growling. “If this is some sort of joke herbivore, you can just take the mixed bouquet and leave!” He growled before his ears flattened a bit. “just leave.” He grumbled.
“leona” his ears perked at how softly they said his name. Looking a mix of disappointed and loving. Suddenly music started around them and they smiled at him as they began to sing. “I will never let you let me leave I promise I'm not lying!” “Go ahead ask anybody who has seen me trying!” They motion to Ruggie who rolled his eyes as he nodded along. “I'm not going, if it seems like I did I'm probably waiting outside.” They smile as hey start to move to the very bouncy music around leona. He watched them a bit uneasily still unsure what exactly they were doing.
“Such a stubborn person you'll likely never meet another” they puffed out their chest in pride as they smiled. Leona rolled his eyes at this. “When we’ve got an overblot you can’t ask any other” “i’m the best! you'll learn more about me on my family history test!” They giggled and smirked at how prideful that verse sounded.
“I'm gonna do this right!” They bow before leona their smirk changing to a genuine smile. “Show you I'm not moving Wherever you go, I won't be far to follow!” They sit next to him and lean into his side. “Oh, I'm gonna love you so! You'll learn what I already know I love you means you're never, ever, ever getting rid of me.” Leona stares down at them as they smile up at him from against his side. He scoffed a bit and turned away, trying to control his pounding heart.
“You can try~, oh, but I~” mc sang softly next to him as they gripped his arm. “I love you means you're never, ever, ever getting rid of me” they stand up and sway infront of the lion man as he struggled agains his own want to pull them back to his side.
“Ready to stop?” He grumbles at them
“Not quite, im confessing infront of everybody!” They say dancing as Cater cheered as he popped up from the doorway with his phone out, obviously recording the spectacle.
“What?!” Leona roared. His anger only calming as mc grabbed his face and got him to look at them and only them as they continued to sing.
“I grew up a lonely child in the suburb of the city.” Leona’s attention was back to them since they usually never shared their backstory. “Spent my days alone my only friend was a stray kitty, called Sardine” they giggled a bit at the memory. “I thought it was hilarious to call a cat a kind of fish” Leona chuckled at how they smirked at him. “She played hard to get hissing while she scratched me” they elbowed Leona’s side a bit as he frowned at their words, scanning their hands and arms for the faded scratch marks. “What she was trying to say was "mc come and catch me"” they smiled in pride and Leona rolled his eyes at their thought process. “I learned quickly, that perseverance stood between a cat and his new best friend, me!” Hey spun around Leona. A bright smile matching the one when he fist didn’t push them away from his usual napping spot. Leona was fighting to not match their smile with a smirk of his own.
“Oh, I'm gonna do this right Show you I'm not moving” they moved to hug his side and he stiffened as his tail swayed happily behind himself. “Wherever you go, I won't be far to follow” they smile up at him and he gently shakes them off looking away and fighting the warmth crawling up his neck. “Oh, I'm gonna love you so You'll learn what I already know!” They Steve back from him and put their hands behind their back. “I love you means you're never, ever, ever getting rid of me” they shove the Bowie back into Leona’s hands as he looks somewhat unimpressed at it.
“When you say never?” He led them on, playing along with them for now.
“You can try~ oh, but I~” mc sang back leaning toward the lion man.
“I love you means blah blah blah yip yap yap yap now get on with it!” Ruggie called out tired of seeing the two dance around each other for so long. Mc giggled before turning to Leona with a more serious look.
“I can try~, but I~” they sang once more. Voice so full of love that it set Leona's heart ablaze. “I love you means you're never, ever, ever getting rid of me!” They exclaimed at the music stopped. They stood infront if Leona panting a bit from their dancing and singing from before. Leona was silent for a few seconds and he watched as mc looked a bit disappointed or upset at the stretching silence and his lack of a reaction. He sighed, breaking the silence.
“Tch, if ya wanted to confess so badly how about a kiss then herbivore?” He teases. Their face warmed at the remark but to leonas surprise and delight they pulled him down by his collar and kissed him hard and quick. Pulling back with a victorious smirk of their own.
“does that work for you, your highness?” They teased a bit. Leonas faced flushed at the nickname and he quickly pulled them back to his chest glaring at the others watching them. They quickly got the message and left, leaving Leona and mc alone together.
“you know you won’t be able to take this back herbivore.” Leona said seriously scanning their eyes for any hint of remorse or hesitation.
“you never ever getting rid of me leona.” They said smiling st him, eyes full of light and love that had Leona greedily pulling them closer to kiss them. Thanking them and pouring all the things he couldn’t bring himself to say into the kiss. They eventually pulled away with a small gasp and pushed their forehead against his, humming happily. Both now content to enjoy the others company as they figure out their new relationship together. They were never ever going to get rid of each other.

TWST: The EPIC Saga
The Horse and the Infant
Main Character: Jamil Viper(Odysseus)
Technically Jamil x Oc. (I needed to have as many of the canon cast as possible)
I will be following the story of EPIC and by extension the Odyssey but with the names of twst characters and slight rewrites. Style: Songfic? I think?
TW: murder, child endangerment, dramatics, war, PTSD, death, more to be added as it comes up. Masterlist
A/N: Love you Yana! And love you Jorge! I hope I do this story justice
Tumblr media
600 men were crammed into a wooden horse. They were all dressed in the Scalding Sands’ traditional soldier’s uniform. They wait with bated breath as they feel the horse begin to move into the capital city of the Kingdom of Heroes. They all turn to their commander, a young man with long, dark, hair, and calculated grey eyes. He sighs and looks to the men around him.
“Alright my brothers, listen closely. Tonight we make those “heroes” pay. Ten years of war they’ve killed us slowly, but tonight we’ll be the ones who slay!”
A buzz of cheers ricochets throughout the horse. He waits for it to die down before starting again, “Think of your wives and your children,” He looks at the snake armband around his right upper arm, ”Your family’s wondering where you’ve been. They’re growing old and yet you’re still here.”
He looks at his men again, admiring the determination in their gaze.
“Do what I say and you’ll see them again,” He offers.
“Yes sir!” The army shouts. It’s overwhelming and would get them found out without the soundproofing spell. He begins to assign specific duties to his best soldiers.
“Jack will lead the charge,” A tall wolf beastman nods.
“Sebek will flank the guard, Silver will let our mates through the gate and take the whole city at large, Rook will shoot any ambush attack, and Epel will stay back,” He waits for each man to nod before continuing, “Sam, secure the princess and protect her, and Floyd, avenge your father, kill the brothers of Rielle!”
“Yes sir!”
The captain’s eyes glow slightly red, giving a binding order to his men, “Find that inner strength now, use that well of pride, fight through every pain now, ask yourself inside: What do live for, what do you fight for, what do you wish for, what do you try for?”
The men echo the last sentiment as the order solidifies. The horse begins to move.
He takes the armband and turns it over in his hands. He thought back to his homeland where people, specifically someone was waiting for him. He sees a woman, his wife, y/n and a small bundle in her hands, their son, Carmon. He slips the gold snake band back onto his arm.
I fight for us.
He can hear the soldiers around him asks each other who they’re living for. Y/n
Who they’re trying for.
Carmon
Who they’re wishing for. He sighs in preparation as he can feel the wooden horse beginning to stop moving.
I’m on my way
Who they’re fighting for. The horse stops moving and the door on the neck slowly starts to open. The soldiers hug the shadows until it opens enough for them to safely jump down. The moment finally comes.
“Attack!” He shouts and the soldiers rush the unsuspecting citizens and army, beginning to slaughter them.
The Scalding Sands’ men are suffering no casualties. Spells of all kinds fly throughout the battlefield. The captain had just finished clearing out a unit of archers until he notices someone behind him. He tries to react but the assailant thrusts a blade through his stomach. He lets out a gut-wrenching scream, trying to grab the blade.
But he finds nothing. Because he wasn’t stabbed.
“What…was that?” He asks, turning behind him to see a tall man with jet black hair, pointed ears, and horns. Malleus, the king of the gods.
Malleus smiles at him and speaks with a deep voice, “A vision, of what is to come. Cannot be outrun, can only be dealt with right here and now.”
Jamil swallows, “Tell me how.”
Malleus chuckles, “I don’t think you’re ready,” he points to the captain, “A mission, to kill someone’s son. A foe who won’t run, it can only be dealt with right here and now.”
“Tell me how. I know that I’m ready.”
“I don’t think you’re ready,” Malleus snaps his fingers and a bundle of blankets float gently into his arms. The captain pulls back the blanket and is greeted with a small, sleeping face. He looks at it horrified.
“It’s just an infant…it’s just a boy. What sort of imminent threat does he pose that I can’t avoid?”
“This is the son of none other of the Kingdom of Heroes very own prince. He will grow from a boy do an avenger. One fueled by rage, if you’re consumed by age,” A group of gods appear behind him, joining Malleus in the prophecy, “If you don’t end him now, you’ll have nothing else to save.”
Malleus grins, “You can say goodbye to y/n.”
The captain looks around panicked, trying to find a solution that does not involve killing the innocent child, “I could raise him as my own.”
Malleus sighs, “He will burn your house and throne.”
“Send him far away from home.”
“He will find wherever you roam.”
“Make sure his past is never known!”
“The gods will make him know.”
“I’d rather bleed for you!”
“This is the will of the gods,” Malleus glares at the captain with an air of finality. The captain looks from the god, to the infant, and back to the god.
“Please don’t make me do this…Don’t make me do this!” His voice is strained. For once, the god looks at him with sympathy and places his hand on his shoulder.
“The blood on your hands is something you won’t lose,” He begins to fade away, “All you can choose is whose…”
He leave the captain alone with the infant. He stares at the burning city around him, before slowly walking to the edge of the wall….

In A Sentimental Mood: A Ruggie/Yuu Oneshot
Some quick Housekeeping! This was originally meant to be a song-fic but the only time I remembered to/felt inspired to write was nearly the middle of the night (as writers do lol) so I didn’t have enough mental energy to splice the lyrics together into the story. Instead, I listened to the song on repeat while writing, like, HALF of the fic but I thought it was cute enough to fit the vibes. The narrator's voice and descriptions were hard to keep consistent as well as concise, but whatever. I don’t think I properly matched Ruggie’s speech pattern but I think it’s close enough to ‘random, working class teenager’ for now.
Also! It’s an X Yuu but I’m pretty sure I used all GN! Pronouns so please feel free to read it as an X Reader (who’s the Ramshackle Perfect). It felt kinda awkward to not describe the character or use open descriptors (like Y/N, HC, etc.) but feel free to add any notes or styles to try out for an open reader audience. Honestly feel free to comment or message any feedback lol! I don’t have a beta reader atm (I might ask either my gf or my IRL friend who’s also into TWST) but it could be fun to have a random stranger react to my writing so they’re disconnected from personal feelings and whatnot.
 I have a fic introducing my oc a little interacting with the Pop Music Club, but it’s making out to be longer than expected so between writing for my own AU/ocs story I’ll be posting cute lil song-fics as well as crackhead interactions lol! Maybe a few headcanons as well. I’m not sure if I would have ever actually started writing fanfics (or writing in general) instead of simply daydreaming about it if it wasn’t for @twst-beam and @krenenbaker , so a quick dedication for them for lowkey lighting a fire under my ass. Not only have you opened the creative floodgates, but actually gave me the motivation to actually TRY and put it into action. Anyway…. ON TO THE STORY BITCHES!!! ENJOY THE THE SWEET HYENA BOY (who weirdly looks exactly like my Boyfriend, lol) AND COME REALISH IN THE CHAOS~
In A Sentimental Mood:
A Ruggie/Yuu one-shot
It had been a long day. Scratch that–it had been the longest year of Ruggie Bucchi and Yuu’s life! However, there was something especially trying these last 24 hours. Maybe it had something to do with how this was the first day off the both had (that lined up) in w e e k s and they STILL BOTH got called in to run some nonsensical errand. Or maybe it’s because when the First Year Squad were supposed to be babysitting Grim the entire first floor of Ramshackle got absolutely trashed. 
Something about stupid bets, idiotic magic competition, and a prolonged chase. Afterwards, Rugs and Yuu had to help clean up! The aftermath of the wreckage was too much for the Hodge Podge group of freshmen.
What really topped the day off was the mission impossible scheme the couple failed to pull off. Originally, the two were simply planning to “borrow” on one Leonas (numerous) credit cards while the latter was passed out for an all-expenses-paid date out. It’s not like they were about to rob the second prince blind! Just a few trips to their usual thrifting stops, maybe hassle with a local boutique and then some semi-fancy free grub. 
Instead they got caught two shops in when they decided to grab some food before being totally weighed down by paper shopping bags. Since they had a later start, Yuu suggested getting dinner to the new uppity wine-and-dine.
“C’mon Rugs~ When are we gonna have another chance to dine like Kings? And on a Royal Dime at that!” they foolishly (but successfully) tempted the poor Hyena into a little more Mischievous than the two realized.
Too bad their Dinner Date got cut short from one of the waiters recognizing the Sunset Savannah Royal Seal on Leona’s card. It took an hour and a half of being corralled into a backroom, 3 ominous threats of calling the police, snarky back talk and just general arguing before Leona strutted into the Restaurant and vouched for his underclassmen. Seeing the lazy Lion not only WAKE UP, but come off campus was a bit of a surprise for the thief couple. 
What wasn’t as surprising was his smug, diva face while declaring that they would need to pay him back for disturbing his nap. After hasty, and admittedly sheepish, promises to the Prince, he collected his missing card and strutted back to campus. Luckily, he was secretly a bit of a softy towards his unofficial Vice and the magicless Perfect that saved his life (and probably his status for not ratting him out to his older brother). It’s safe to say while making the switch a decent stack of Thaumarks was placed in Ruggie’s wallet.
So yeah, in a word, the day had been a bit of a shitshow. A clusterfuck of misfortunate events (and if it weren’t for Leona, Yuu and Ruggie would not only be in some kind of jail but also flat broke). 
But finally–finally–this hardworking hyena Beastman and the Ramshackle Perfect were about to have some peace and quiet! A moment for just the two of them. A small, precious moment late at night. After the longest night of their collective lives, the two were able to cuddle up and appreciate what they had. Even if all they had was encompassed by long, tiring days and horrendous luck… and having the bend to the whims of some of the brattiest Divas of NRC.
Regardless, this time isn’t about them. It’s about Ruggie Bucchi and Yuu enjoying what left they had of their day off, Damnnit!  
“Ya’ know,” Yuu hummed into where their face was buried for max comfort; Ruggie’s chest. “Today wasn’t a total bust.”
Ruggie snickered sarcastically as his left hand paused its petting motion through his significant other’s hair. He was clearly only humoring his lover's thought process, yet paying attention all the same.
“I’m just saying it wasn’t a total loss,” they began to half-jokingly argue, “I still got to spend the day with you. Besides, you gotta admit it was pretty funny watching that stupid manager’s annoying face drop when Prince Grumpy strutted in all pissy!”
“Shee Shee Shee! Fair enough, Sugar! Good thing he didn’t realize Leona’s always cranky… or that His Majesty~ was mostly just pissed he had to wake up.” Ruggie answered playfully.
“It was kinda sweet of him for letting us, mostly, off the hook though. He even let us keep our goodies along with that sneaky bonus,” Yuu mentioned while lazily motioning towards the small mound of shopping bags and the miscellaneous items inside.
“Pleeeease~ He probably spends more on a single earring than we did with his card and cash combined,” Rugs pouted enviously. To emphasize his pout, he completely encircled Yuu with his arms and clutched them tightly. He was hanging onto them tighter than a swiped snack from the cafeteria on Doughnut day.
“I don’t know,” his partner giggled in response, “Leona’s been such a softy lately… but his whole dark and brooding reputation gets in the way a bit.”
“Dark and brooding?” Ruggie snorted, “Dunno if Leona’s habits of lyin’ around counts as dark and brooding.”
Yuu tried to suppress their elated smirk at feeling the slight tremor of quiet laughter. “True, that’s more of Mal’s stick isn’t it? Angsty and depressed?”
“Nahhh, that’s Idia’s thing! Also, I still can’t wrap my head ‘round you calling Malleus by some nickname.” His laughter died down as he scrunched his nose at the thought of his partner so buddy-buddy with one of Twisted Wonderland’s most powerful mages. And a crown Prince… with servants and castles and-
“You do realize that Malleus is like a GIANT kid right? I mean, yeah he’s some super powerful wizard-”
“Mage!”
“...whatever. He’s an absolute beast when it comes to magic and whatnot, but he’s got this whole ‘homeschooled only child’ vibe going on and honestly? It’s a little pathetic, in a cute stray way.”
Ruggie didn’t really know how to feel about his partner’s revelation. On one hand, he knew they were just friends and had befriended each other longer before Yuu realized Malleus’ status. That didn’t necessarily make it any easier to cover up the inherent inferiority or the slight unsettling fear. Good thing they didn’t feel the usual pressure of this world’s social ladder… but that doesn’t mean they won’t start worrying if he stayed lost in thought for too long.
“.......what was your world like for you to turn out so weird?” 
“Hey!”
Ruggie continued to laugh, but it came out a little bit strained. Yuu finally glanced up in order to catch a glimpse of their boyfriend’s adorable pout.  His lightly scrunched eyebrows and the way his ears seemed to fold-in on themselves made him look like a grumpy puppy. Absurdly cute, but clearly bothered, and they both had had such a long day t wouldn’t be right not to cheer him back up!
“Oh, c’mere!” the Perfect said through teasing giggles as they flipped Ruggie over to switch positions.
Rugs was currently (and quite contently) snuggled face first into his lover's chest; enjoying the sound of their heartbeat along with the comfortable extra cushioning. His arms reached slightly down to wrap around their waist snuggly as the two pairs of legs naturally crisscrossed at the joints. The moment he fully relaxed was when Yuu started to softly pet his bushy hair and scratch along the base of his ears.
Pure Heaven.
“Were you getting grumpy because I kept mentioning Leona and Malleus?” the Perfect lovingly taunted now that he was trapped and attacked (with euphoric head scratches) in his weak spot. Truly, an idiots mirage of paradise.
“C’mon Sweet Cheeks! Ya Couldn’t’ve least let me keep my pride?” Rugs whined, quickly going back to frowning deeply but unable to hold it for long. There was no chance in all of Twisted Wonderland he could stay “upset” while his precious Dandelion Fluff’s fingers softly caressed his sensitive ears. At least he could cover-up the way he melted, burying himself further into their figure. Luckily, Yuu was already squeezing him closure with a burst of affection,
“Don’t worry, my silly Hyena, the only one I was focused on today was you. The only one I wanted to spend time with was you. And the only person I think of from dawn till dusk, and dream about the whole night through, will always be you, Ruggie Bucchi.” Yuu declared playfully, then slowly breathlessly serious with a sappy amount of affection as they watched Ruggie's tail wave faster and faster.
“Shee shee shee,” Rugs bashfully replied, “where did all that come from outta nowhere?”
Yuu wistfully sighed, “I guess I’m just in a sentimental mood.”
The two shared some playful hushed whispers until Ruggie had to turn his head to hide a yawn. His attempt was futile however, as Yuu caught it–but instead of teasing him over it they simply snuggled him closer and quietly sang an old, sweet crooner love song from their home world. Despite the long day, it felt blissfully short as the two peacefully drifted off to sleep in each other’s arms.

The Glass Slipper Chapter 4: A Magical Night
Cater rushed to the gardens and slumped by the fountain, looking at himself at the water's reflection but he couldn't stare at it for long.
"How ruthless could they be?" He whispered, examining the damaged parts of his gown, "And it was such a nice gown too."
It took a while for Cater to realize that he was crying as he saw tear stains on his destroyed dress. He let out a small sob and he finally started to cry, hands covering his face.
Everyone saw and he knew they were trying to comfort him. Kalim appeared and began to wipe the tears. "I'm so sorry, Cater. I didn't know this would happen."
"But that was such a beautiful dress, Kalim. I let them ruin it."
Kalim hugs Cater and lets him cry. It was a mere minute until another hand rubbed against his back.
"You didn't deserve this," Lilia spoke, startling Cater and Kalim.
"H-hey, Lilia," Kalim greeted, "Now is not the time."
"Oh, I think it's a perfect time." Lilia spoke, "Malleus is waiting for you and here you are, wallowing in sorrow. You sound so excited to be there, Cater. What has happened to your spirit?"
"…I don't think I have that anymore," Cater sobs, "or maybe it's that I never had it in the first place. Like I pretended it…"
"I understand that, but that should never be a reason to give up your dreams, Cater," Lilia spoke, "and besides, you and Malleus for instance. You two share a connection and I hate to see you just disregard that."
"But it's…improbable. Implausible..It's…"
"Impossible?" Lilia finished.
"Yes!"
Lilia groans to himself, "Humans, humans…they are always says it's.."
Impossible
For a plain yellow pumpkin
To become a golden carriage!
Impossible
For a plain country bumpkin
And a prince to join in marriage
And four white mice
Will never be four white horses
Such fol-de-rol and fiddledy dee dee
Of course is
Impossible!
"It is." Cater spoke up, not backing down at the argument.
"Well," Kalim murmur.
"You agree with him?"
But the world is full of zanies and fools
Who don’t believe in sensible rules
And won’t believe what sensible people say
And because these daft and dewy-eyed dopes
Keep building up impossible hopes
Impossible things are happenning every day!
Impossible!
Impossible!
Impossible!
Impossible!
Impossible!
Impossible!
Impossible!
"But if you could be a royal guard not a day ago and now are my fairy godfather, then anything is possible, right?" Cater questioned.
"I suppose so," Lilia answered, "If I can be both royal advisor and fairy godfather, I'd say I can make anything possible."
"You could change it all," Cater beamed, getting up from the fountain "You could make it all happen."
"No, but you could change it," Kalim grinned, "You could make it all happen! Like you have several times before."
"Never. I couldn’t." Cater deflected, "I couldn't it'll be…Impossible."
"You’re right. It’s all so-,"
"Lilia…"
Impossible
For a plain yellow pumpkin
To become a golden carriage
Impossible
For a plain country bumpkin
And a prince to join in marriage
And four white mice
Will never be four white horses –
Such fol-de-rol and fiddledy dee
Of course is
Impossible!
But the world is full of zanies and fools
Who don’t believe in sensible rules
And won’t believe what sensible people say
And because these daft and dewy-eyed dopes
Keep building up impossible hopes
Impossible things are happ’ning every day!
"But how?"
"How? I can show you how," Lilia laughs, "as long as you grab me a massive pumpkin! But we need horses."
"Can't you just summon them?" Cater huffed as he grabbed a massive pumpkin from his gardens.
"I mean, you have all that magic but you can't summon them?" Ace chuckled, "…they don't sound all that magical to me."
"Shut it, Ace," Deuce hushed.
Cater sighed as he rolled the pumpkin to the fairy godfathers.
"Here's a massive pumpkin," Cater panted, "I don't know why you need such a big vegetable for this job. I mean, if it was for a feast, I understand, but why would you ever need a pumpkin?"
"Oh? Because of this!" Lilia announced as he used his magic on the pumpkin.
Cater watched how the pumpkin began to grow in size and its orange skin had become a lovely silver as the vines became wheels, seats, and bars, and a door appeared. Cater's mouth went dry. His pumpkin was now a beautiful carriage, one that only royalty could ride on, as it shimmered underneath the moon.
"It's a…" Cater stammered.
"Tada! A beautiful carriage," Lilia grinned, "That's why I needed that pumpkin."
"Noted.." Cater mumbled.
"Now, the second thing we need is six mice," Lilia listed, "and since you already have four out of six,"
"What are you planning?" Deuce squeaked.
"Oh, don't worry," Lilia laughs, "I just need horses, and you guys will be the perfect mice for the job. And besides, this is all temporary, and I can assure you, you won't be horses for long."
"What's in it for us?" Ruggie asked.
"You do want to help Cater, don't you?"
The mice went silent but sighed a yes, as they did want to help.
"I found two more mice!" Kalim cheered, "and two lizards!!"
"The mice, I get. By why the lizards?" Cater started to question.
"You need a coachman and a footman," Kalim explained, setting the lizards down, "and those are very important for a carriage such as this. And I found these two mice and I thought, they might be just right for this job."
Kalim grinned and grabbed his wand. He smiles as he turns the two lizards into the coachman and the footman. Cater watched how the footman just kept staring at his feet and started to laugh to himself as the coachman watched with a similar expression of delight.
"I can see why they are necessary," Cater laughs.
"How can you walk?" The footman asked, "I mean, it's fun but I can't move my feet so often."
"I agree," the coachman spoke up, "but I am grateful that this is going to be an exciting day."
Cater nodded in agreement, "You and me both."
Lilia walked past Cater in a huff as he set the mice in front of the carriage, glaring at them.
"For mice, you cause me so much trouble," Lilia complained, "I get why you can be against the idea, but did it require me to get you caught in a cage to get you to cooperate?"
"Trust me," Cater looks over, "they can be very stubborn and honestly, they don't even like horses."
"Mice don't like horses in general," Lilia stated, grabbing his wand, "Horses, along with elephants, can have huge feet and can be squished like little bigs."
"I'm glad he didn't turn into a elephant then," Deuce spoke up.
"Or a horse," Riddle added.
Kalim laughs as he puts the two other mice in the lineup, being very careful about it.
"We're ready, Lilia!"
Lilia lets out a sigh and takes out his wand as he starts to transform the six mice into six white horses, and white fur to match the silver ropes that were given to them. The coachman quickly grabbed the reins and prepared himself for the upcoming travel.
"I thought he said four white horses?"
"Lilia's…over 600 years old. He might have forgotten, but it's best not to remind him."
Lilia sighs and looks back at them. "NOW we can discuss the dress!"
"You should rest up," Kalim requested, "you might as well faint from all the stress you put yourself under."
"I am not that old," Lilia pouted and sat down by the fountain.
"You sure don't act like it," Cater commented.
"Now," Kalim goes over to Cater, "This calls for a new dress, but one that makes you shine. Like the only bell of the ball!"
Kalim smiles and waves his wand, and his magic begins to surround Cater. Cater gasped as his plum pink dress turned into a silver blue, like diamonds. His flat skirt became poofed and an added layer of sheer sparkle, which matched his newly created bodice, also a beautiful shade of silver. His hair was also put into a cute bun as a diamond crown manifested onto his head.
Cater quickly rushed over to the fountain's reflection, seeing himself, speechless.
"Is the crown too much?"
"A little," Cater gulped, "I…I still love it. And this dress, it's absolutely beautiful! It's like the dress we joked about, but it's real. My dress is real…"
"And now the shoes!" Lilia announced, already bouncing back. With his magic, he made glass slippers, one that perfectly matched Cater's outfit.
"Glass?" Kalim questioned.
"I wanted to make them myself," Lilia answered, "Heard they'll rare."
"And oddly comfortable," Cater realized as he began to walk around, "like they feel like shoes, and not like glass. And they don't hurt as I suspected."
"See, I do have good ideas. This retired fairy godfather still got it."
Cater looks over at the carriage as the footman opens the door for him.
"Should I tell him that these shoes are a little loose?"
"They seem too happy to notice."
Cater nodded and sat inside the carriage.
"Wait! We have one more thing to discuss," Kalim spoke, rushing to the carriage.
"What is it?"
"Well, most fae magic ends at Midnight. It's a fairy godfather thing," Lilia explained, "so, as the clock strikes midnight, all magic will disappear and we need you to come here as fast as possible as magic tends to be quick when it ends."
"I'll be careful," Cater promised.
The carriage rides away and Cater takes a moment to realize that he is not dreaming. He began to laugh as he looked out the carriage to see the town and the castle in front of them.
It’s possible
It’s possible
It’s possible
It’s possible
It’s possible
It’s possible
It's possible!
For a plain yellow pumpkin
To become a golden carriage!
It’s possible
For a plain country bumpkin
And a prince to join in marriage
And four white mice
Are easily turned to horses—
Such fol-der-ol and fiddle-dy-dee
Of course is…
Quite possible
For the world is full of zanies and fools
Who won’t believe in sensible rules
And won’t believe what sensible people say
And because these daft and dewey-eyed dopes
Keep building up impossible hopes
Impossible
Things are happening every day!
It’s possible! (It’s possible!)
It’s possible! (It’s possible!)
It’s possible! (It’s possible!)
It’s possible!
Cater walked up the stairs and gulped as he just stood there. "Breath, Cater," He whispered to himself, "You came this far. You came this far…. you…. can't do this!" He turned to walk away until a rush of magic pushed him inside, almost making him trip on the stairs.
"Leaving?" Lilia teased.
"Not a good move." Kalim giggles.
Cater huffed and walked inside and gawked once he did. He always tried to imagine what the inside of the castle but's nothing like he imagined, but considering how Malleus and his family are, Cater was not surprised about the gothic feel the castle gave off. Cater takes a breath and begins to walk forward, ignoring the stares from the knights, As he climbs the stairs and finds himself in the ballroom, people talking, some are dancing and many women walking over to Malleus.
Cater giggles as he sees how bored Malleus looks, yawning after every woman comes over to him, he doesn't even acknowledge him. Cater just found it hilarious that the picture-perfect prince was yawning at that many women who came from near or far swooning and flirting and no reaction whatsoever from the prince.
Cater smiles and walks closer, but what stops him is Elise and Astrid, strutting over and bowing down to Malleus. Cater slowly backed away, as he wasn't sure if he was properly disguised.
Malleus's eyes lurked around the room and his eyes immediately saw Cater and were mesmerized by how beautiful Cater was, as if he had seen an angel. Ignoring the ladies in front of him, Malleus walked or rather rushed over to Cater and quickly took his hands.
"You came," Malleus whispered, kissing his hand, "My goodness, Cater, you look absolutely beautiful. You are like an angel when you walk into this ballroom."
Cater giggles, his face red. "Well, you were expecting me and I would've felt guilty if I didn't attend."
Cater looks back at the band as they started playing the music.
"Well, may I have this dance?"
"You took the words out of my mouth, dear Cater. I hope you know how to dance," Malleus joked, "I hate to see you fall."
Afterward, the music started again, a romantic melody filled the room as the lovebirds began to dance. Cater smiles as Malleus holds him closer, in a nice embrace. Many turned to see Malleus dancing with a beautiful stranger that no one could recognize, and some were just confused about the new arrival, even the queen was stumped, but seeing her grandson happy made her relax.
"Who's that?" Elise asked as they danced beside her. "It seems like the prince knows them."
"Who cares?" Astrid hissed venomously, "He took our opportunity away like a glove! And I won't take it!" Astrid walked closer, stopped by Rosalind.
"He was familiar to me…" Roselind whispered as she watched them dance away into the gardens. "Follow them, make sure he won't be there long."
Astrid and Elise looked at each other and followed them, as silently as possible.
Cater, in the meantime, kept staring at Malleus and their eyes were locked as they noticed that they dirfted onto the gardens, humming to himself in a soothing melody.
So this is love, mmm
So this is love
So this is what makes life divine
I'm all aglow, mmm
And now I know (and now I know)
The key to all heaven is mine
My heart has wings, mmm
And I can fly
Cater relaxes underneath a beautiful night sky, watching how Malleus looks divine in the moonlight. Malleus looked down at Cater, as he watched how Cater's eyes glowed ever so beautiful with the stars.
Malleus just couldn't stop staring at Cater, and how he considered himself lucky to even be with him underneath the stars on the beautiful night, which he hoped would be the night that he would announce his engagement to Cater.
I'll touch every star in the sky
So this is the miracle
That I've been dreaming of
Mmm, mmm So this is love
Cater smiles and sits down by the fountain. "I can't believe this is happening. I mean, being here at such a beautiful ball with you, a prince."
"Why don't you?" Malleus questioned. "I did especially invite you for this exact reason."
Cater breathes in. "I know. But it has a much more magical flare to this night. For me to be here miraculously. To be with you." He looks over to Malleus. "And me with you," Malleus kisses Cater's hand.
"I'm so happy to see you here on this night." Cater giggles and holds his hand back. "Let us enjoy the night and the beautiful breeze. And dance forever."
"Agreed."
The girls watched in utter jealousy, as Malleus put Cater in a soft embrace, enjoying the romantic evening.
"Ugh!" Groaned Elise, "I don't get it!" She begins to walk back and forth, confused.
"About that?"
Why would a fellow want a girl like her,
A frail and fluffy beauty?
Why can’t a fellow ever once prefer
A solid girl like me?
Astrid looks over and leans over to a pouting Elise, watching the couple once again.
She’s a frothy little bubble
With a flimsy kind of charm,
And with very little trouble
I could break her little arm!
("Don't break my arm here!!")
Astrid looks over and leads Elise over to the lovers as they begin to walk around the gardens, and their anger and jealousy begin to rise as Malleus whispers in this mysterious princess's ear very romantically.
Oh, oh, why would a fellow want a girl like her,
So obviously unusual?
Why can’t a fellow ever once prefer
A usual girl like me?
They glared as Malleus made the stranger laugh and blush through their conversation. They could tell that Malleus kept falling for this stranger as the night progressed.
Her cheeks are a pretty shade of pink,
But not any pinker than a rose is.
Her skin may be delicate and soft,
But not any softer than a doe’s is.
Her neck is no whiter than a swan’s.
She’s only as dainty as a daisy.
She’s only as graceful as a bird.
So why is the fellow going crazy?
Oh, why would a fellow want a girl like her,
A girl who’s merely lovely?
Why can’t a fellow ever once prefer
A girl who’s merely me?
Malleus pulled the stranger into another dance, a smirk that made the stranger giggle like a giddy child. It made the girls sick to their stomachs and Astrid just scoffed at the sight.
She’s a frothy little bubble
With a frilly sort of air,
And with very little trouble
I could pull out all her hair!
("Don't touch my hair!!")
Oh, oh, why would a fellow want a girl like her,
A girl who’s merely lovely?
Why can’t a fellow ever once prefer
A girl who’s merely me?
What’s the matter with the man?
What’s the matter with the man?
What’s the matter with the man?
But as they turned for a moment, they had failed to realize that Malleus had taken Cater into the more secluded parts of the gardens, hoping they could be alone without any guards to look over them like his grandmother ordered them to.
"My diamond," Malleus whispered, as he took Cater's hand, "are you having a great time tonight? I would dread that you would not enjoy yourself."
"Are you kidding!?" Cater laughs, "I never had so much fun in my life. Being able to just go and just have one day to myself with no chores and no orders. Just some freedom to have fun and be with you, Malleus, to be here and found love that I thought were fiction."
"As did I." Malleus admitted, "I never understood what love was until I met you in the village. Despite the dirt and grime that was all over you, you were the only person I found my heart beating for. I, as of this night, understand now what love is and I'm ready to discover more. As long as you are by my side?"
Cater blushes madly but manages to show a big grin as he hugs Malleus tightly, trying to fight the tears that spilled down his cheeks.
"Malleus…" Cater choked.
"I understand if I am going too fast, but I wanted you to know that I am certain that my love for you will never falter."
"Mine won't ever!" Cater sobs, "It's a yes. To everything, if I wasn't so sure about this before, I am sure now!"
Cater and Malleus embraced each other as they watched the stars.
Cater looks over at the clock, which now says 11:58, going towards 11:59.
"Oh! Hey, Malleus…you don't mind if I did one thing before I leave?" Cater asked one last time, looking back at the clock.
"Oh? You're leaving? Already? You haven't met my-?!"
Cater bashed his lips on Malleus's, shutting him up immediately. They didn't know how long they stayed but hopefully for eternity as their embrace began tighter, refusing to let themselves go and drift apart.
The bell rang and Cater gasped and got up. The only thing he could do was run, even when he knew it was a bad idea, considering that Malleus knew about him and who he was. But if he wasn't back at his mansion, it would cause major havoc.
"I have to go!" Cater begins to run, knowing that Malleus calling out to him. "I'm sorry, Malleus! It's kind of like a magic thing! Midnight sucks!"
"But where can I find you?!" Malleus asked.
"The mansion up the hill!! If you look at a certain path! That's where I am!" Cater answered, "Ask one of your guards! He'll know and I promise, I'll be waiting for you, and I can't wait for you to find me once again."
Cater rushed out of the gardens and to the ballroom, where many stared as he pushed past them to the entrance and the carriage, but as he ran down the stairs, one of the slippers fell off.
"Ugh, I knew those slippers are loose." Cater muttered as he jumped into the carriage and watched how Malleus rushed out afterward and picked up the glass slipper that Cater may have purposely left behind, or could be an accident due to Cater's panicked stare.
He quickly got onto his carriage and it sped off, Cater looked back and took a sigh of relief. He couldn't believe that he had done everything that he just did. But it didn't prepare him for when the carriage began to crumble onto the floor, now a pumpkin once again.
Cater looked around, to see if anyone was following before looking at the groaning mice and lizards from the muddy floor. He gasped in astonishment as he got up.
"What a night!" Cater laughed, "I mean…Malleus..he's so sweet and kind, and he basically just asked me to marry him! Marry!" Cater looks back, "..we are meant to be,"
"Good for you, but can we please go home?" Shivered Ace, "and some nice warm water."
Cater grinned and took everyone, even the additional mice and lizards, and started to walk home. Once he began to walk, a twinkle got his attention, and he looked down. His left shoe was accompanied by a glass slipper, the only thing that had not disappeared within the midnight time limit.
Cater just grinned and rushed to the mansion.
"Now, we have Berry, Lyra, Floyd, and Jade," Cater grinned, "Welcome to our small abode,"
"It's comfy," Floyd spoke up, "and I like the blanket!"
"Good, all of you just rest up, and I'll be just downstairs, cleaning." Cater spoke, and carefully put on the warm water in a small bowl for everyone to bathe in.
Cater smiles, walks downstairs, opens the doors to each room, and starts to clean each room until they are squeaky clean, and also a way to finds a way to hide the newly made glass slipper. He did eventually find a perfect hiding place for it. Which, is lucky considering he heard the entrance slam open.
Cater quickly rushed to the kitchen and walked out with some food on a tray, to greet his stepfamily.
"Can't you believe this!?" He heard Elise cry, "He's now fretting over some stranger who left a shoe! It's not like there's another girl who would've married him! I mean, has he seen us? We are available."
"I know! He's head over heels with her! It's not fair!" Astrid exclaimed, pouting on the couch, "I can't believe that that stupid stranger lost their stupid shoe. And the prince wants to marry that person?"
"Wow," Cater grimaced but decided to put the tray down and fill the cups with tea. "How was the night?"
"Not great!" Elise hissed, "That stupid prince decided that I wasn't good enough?! He went over to some stupid stranger he deemed so beautiful, he'll look for that….prince stealer!"
"I meant, the ball," Cater corrected, "how was the music, the people, and the dancing? Was the ball everything you dreamed of?"
"I suppose it is," Rosalind spoke up, "everything was splendid, even though the prince left halfway through it."
"I can imagine it from here," Cater sighs, "the music and watching people dancing. And a man who would just kiss your hand and brings you onto the dance floor."
"Like what?" Astrid pouted.
"I would love to call a lovely night," Cater answered.
"Explain," Rosalind demanded, "what do you know about love."
Cater nodded.
A lovely night
A lovely night
A finer night you know you’ll never see
You meet your prince
A charming prince
As charming as a prince will ever be!
As Cater began to dance around the living room, he imagined dancing with Malles once again, on the dancefloor, listening to ballroom music. Imagining Malles holding him close and whispering his hand.
The stars in a hazy heaven
Tremble above you
While he is whispering
“Darling, I love you!”
You say good-bye
Away you fly
But on your lips, you keep a kiss
All your life you’ll dream of this
Lovely, lovely night
Cater hums and sits down on the couch. Elise, Astrid, and Rosalind didn't know how to express their shock at Cater's very romantic fantasy. The way it was described, and the way he said, it made me imagine the most romantic scenarios.
"Wow," Astrid gasped, "sounds like you know what you are talking about, Cater,"
"Oh, nonsense, I just happen to imagine it, and then it appears in front of me," Cater explained, "That's how I just think of the ball, a beautiful night full of love."
"Elise, play the pianoforte," Rosalind ordered and pushed Elise onto the computer.
"Okay, but it’s not going to be good," Elise mumbled.
She gulped before playing on the piano. The keys she mashed were off-key, but it was still graceful.
A lovely night
A lovely night
A finer night you know you’ll never see
La la la, la la la, la la la
You meet (your meet) your prince (your prince)
A charming (a charming) prince
As charming as a prince will ever be!
La la la la la la la la la
The stars in a hazy heaven
Tremble above you
While he is whispering
“Darling, I love you!”
You say good-bye
Away you fly
But on your lips, you keep a kiss
All of your life you’ll dream of this
Lovely, lovely night
Cater grins as he gives them new desserts to end the night. Elise and Astrid couldn't stay still as they began to dance, laughing and twirling to themselves. Rosalind sat down, petting Pom-Pom, humming along to the girls as Cater just watched, clapping.
"After such a night, seeing the girls in high spirits," Rosalind sighs, "It's refreshing, but do I need my beauty sleep." Rosalind joked with a tired sigh.
"Cater! Cater! Join us!" Cheer Elise, "Please!"
"No, no," Cater laughs, "I still have the chores to do!!"
Elise pulled Cater into the living room and started to dance. They all began to laugh and cheer as they did.
The stars in a hazy heaven
Tremble above you
While he is whisp’ring
“Darling, I love you”
You say goodbye
Away you fly
But on your lips, you keep a kiss
All your life you dream of this
Lovely, lovely, lovely
Lovely night!
Cater laughs and helps the girls upstairs to their rooms. Starting with Astrid, he created a bath for her and took out some clothing for her. And then he entered Elise's room and started to help her with her bath, and now he's on her bed, taking out a nightgown for her.
"Cater," Elise yawns, "I have a confession about the ball."
"Hmm, what about?"
"I met someone," Elise sighs, "…she was so beautiful. She is a baker in town that I would go to so often. Though, mother said I shouldn't even think about hanging out with her, and she's a mere commoner compared to me, but seeing her at the ball and…"
"You fell in love?"
"Yes," Elise answered, "I did. But I can never be with her. I know that, but I want to. And with you saying all of this made me want to just.."
"I understand," Cater smiles, "My best advice is that love shouldn't blocked by you or anyone. Once you found love, you just have to go for it. But that's just how I see it."
Cater turns around and helps Elise onto her nightgown.
Elise takes a hesitant sigh, "Are you sure you can keep my secret?"
"I can. We shall have a secret. That will make us…" Cater stammered.
"Co-conspirators?"
"Friends."
"Siblings." Both laughed in unison.
Cater smiles and holds out his pinkie to Elise, "May we both find our loves."
Elise smiles and wraps her pinkie around Cater's, "And our lives."
The stars in a hazy heaven
Trembling above me
Danced when he promised
Always to love me
The day came through
Away I flew
But on my lips, he left a kiss
All my life I’ll dream of this
Lovely
Lovely
Lovely night
Cater smiles as he closes the door.
"Goodnight," Rosalind spoke, from her doorway.
Cater looked back and nodded towards her and began to hum as he entered the attic door. It was like he was ignoring her. The movement of Cater reminded her of the stranger on the dancefloor with the prince.
Rosalind heard and her eyes narrowed as she heard Cater's humming and song. She hated how happy Cater sounded, especially when he was with her daughters. It almost destroyed everything about bringing the snobby rich kid Cater down, but now he was lifted once again, and now he's dancing around, happy.
She wanted to knock Cater down, even if it meant breaking him down once again.
