Okay, so! I think the way adding the Coachman into Playful Land can work is if the Boss/Coachman is a Chort faerie.

(Leaning more towards Slavic faerie Mythology here)

One who is often trying to trick others into selling their souls in exchange for something, and who often has to be tricked in order for the gambler to win back their soul. A Chort is often a smallish hairy man with a tail, horns, and hooves, but he is a shapeshifter who likes to trick people with a prettier appearance before they figure out what he is. The transformation is impossible to perfect, so he can be figured out by small horns hiding in his hair or by having a hoof hiding in his shoes. (The Coachman in Pinnochio has the tips of his ears hidden, so that could be a sign too that the "Boss" isn't human as it's hiding the "points" of his ears. He also makes this obviously demonic face when he scared Honest John and Gideon.)

Anyways.

Fellow, Gidel, and the "Boss".

Fellow is already fed up with his boss, but in this version Fellow does not have the magic to reverse the puppet transformations. Thus, the "Boss" probably threatens Fellow that if he doesn't do a good enough job he will not only not get paid the massive amount of money that was promised, but the "Boss" will also turn Gidel, Fellow's little brother, into a puppet using his magic despite Gidel not breaking any rules. Unfortunately, Gidel ends up attacking the staff puppets in an effort to stop them from leaving- and because in this version Fellow does not have the power to stop the transformation- he's forced to watch as his little brother falls to the ground with a wooden mask appearing on his face.

He has no choice but to work with Ace, Ortho, and Kalim now.

But where is the "Boss" hiding? Fellow doesn't know. He was never given that information. Ortho most likely has to do a quick sweep and scan of the entire park scanning for signs of life before the NRC boys realize they're on top of a whale, the ship is a whale, the amusement park is on a freaking whale, and that there's someone hiding in the whale's mouth because Ortho probably did a scan focused solely on the whale, including an X-Ray, which revealed the person's presence. Fellow is stunned, because while he knew the ship was a whale he never imagined the "Boss" could be hiding in it.

Now, how the frick do they get inside the whale?

The only way to get inside a whale, since the blowhole isn't actually connected to the whale's mouth (they'd just end up in the poor beastie's lungs in they tried) of course, is to be eaten. They'll have to get the whale to open its mouth and let them in. Fellow probably comments that it's almost feeding time for the whale, since it eats like twice a day, so it'll be rising up soon. Everyone is startled, but Fellow reveals he was expecting all the students to be puppets by now so he didn't think much about it.

Ortho probably has to carry Fellow while everyone else finds a broom to fly themselves into the whale's mouth.

There they discover a young beastman boy, dressed in a sweater vest and tie, looking very much like a student from a private school. Dark hair, a cute face, and a little donkey tail with matching ears, acting so terribly frightened, claiming he was swallowed by the whale when he jumped off the "ship" trying to escape after all his friends were turned into puppets. He's just so relieved he's not the only one here anymore, and that maybe if they all work together they can escape the whale and avoid the curse.

Kalim buys into the act immediately, Ace and Fellow are suspicious, but Ortho is the one who calls him out on it. (Ortho really be the MVP here, huh. Sorry, Kalim. T_T)

They end up battling, Fellow using his magic to inspire everyone and keep their morale up, while the student transforms into a not-so-pretty older faerie, revealing himself to be a Chort and Fellow's "Boss", and shows expert skill in wood/plant magics. The curse can't reach them inside the whale, as the spell was casted on the amusement park itself, so they can be as violent as they wish, and while Ortho is blasting away all the wood Ace and Kalim manage to work together and take the "Boss" down.

Afterwards, Kalim uses fire magic while Ace spreads the fire with his wind magic to make the whale sneeze them out, and through some struggle (Fellow riding with Kalim while Ortho carries the bound "Boss" with him) they manage to get back to the amusement park where all their friends and the dying Eleanora are being held in cages.

The Chort removes the cursed masks from them via threat of obliteration in the sky by Ortho, who is all too willing to commit murder as we've seen from various story and vignette moments, and Fellow takes command of the park after reuniting with the now-saved Gidel and turns the ship back towards Sage's Island.

Everyone is pissed, Lilia and Ace are fussing over Eleanora who is unconscious because girl can not have a curse overlapping the curse she already has and is recovering from being on death's doorstep, and everyone goes off on Fellow before taking turns beating up the "Boss" because they're twisted from villains and are petty and have grudges and very much did not appreciate nearly becoming living puppets while watching someone they were friends with/classmates with DIE SLOWLY IN FRONT OF THEM, that shit is traumatizing yo.

And then they wreck the amusement park and drag the "Boss" to the school because they don't really trust Hilltown's authorities to handle a faerie as dangerous as the "Boss" and thus get Crowley, Divus, Poma, Sam, Trein, Vargas, all of the staff, involved, as well as Malleus Draconia as he is the prince of the nocturnal fae and may have information on what all the "Boss" is capable of.

Of course, this does mean he finds out what happened with Eleanora, especially since girl is probably still unconscious and Lilia was likely carrying her, so drama (particularly of the political kind) will most likely ensue.

Basically, Malleus will have to make a decision.

Either deal with the Chort himself and make a formal complaint to the faerie kingdom the "Boss" is from to ensure this kind of thing never happens again to Eleanora, contacting his grandmother for help and letting his relationship with her be known to the public, thus risking getting the Senate involved and unleashing all sorts of danger and drama unto her far earlier than originally planned with little to no preparation against their cruel antics, leaving his grandmother to deal with the worst of the backlash from the Senate and try to buy them time, or let the teachers and authorities handle it and risk Eleanora getting cursed again- which may potentially end the Draconia line as dragons can only be born and hatched through true love, as without Eleanora, Malleus' true love, who he was planning to marry after graduation, there will be no more Draconias.

Either way, her life will be endangered.

By the foolish Senate who believe a human is unworthy and will only taint the noble Draconia line (Maleficent and Ellis, anyone?) and thus will try to get rid of her, which will just end the Draconia line anyway, because they'd rather risk extinction than let a human into the royal family, or by those as foolish as the Chort who would dare try to curse her and end her life. (Granted the "Boss" wasn't expecting her to start dying, he just thought she was going to be another living puppet until Fellow was like, "Erm, yeah, no, one of the puppets are dying, Boss" but anyways.) It's very much a "pick your poison" and which is the lesser evil.

Also all the dorm leaders and vices who weren't involved find out what happened, and Ace, Cater, and Trey end up sharing a four hour lecture from a very mad Riddle but they get away without any further punishment because they've pretty much already had their punishment. Idia has a near heart attack when he finds out what Ortho went through.

And, depending on Malleus' decision, the Chort is either handed over to the Valley of Thorns or to the authorities of the kingdom that the Chort faerie is from.

BOI THIS WAS A MOUTHFULL, HAAAAAAAH. HOPEFULLY IT MAKES SENSE.

Following this post

To clear things up, I am not taking down Her Ivory Crown or Her Lost Voice from here or on my AO3 page. They are finished and I wouldn’t change a thing about them *gives them proud mama kisses*

I had a guest commenter on my AO3 comment section get a little frazzled because they thought I meant I was scraping everything so just in case someone else thought the same - no no fear not readers 😂

Everything I’ve written and completed up until now - Reine’s story, Elise’s story, the backstory vignettes I wrote about other OCs in the Sacred Crown Shorts collection, and the 2nd gen kiddo stories, all that - is staying put so y’all can read them whenever you want 👍

I was considering taking down Her Devoted Shield but I’ve decided to just leave it be until further notice.

On a lighter but still TWST related note

Ngl I’ve missed this rascal. The name change has grown on me. Especially because I now have an adorable Halloween Squishmallow named Ernest 😂

Look he’s orange too lol

So I’m looking forward to the other installments of the Playful Land event especially because-

Free SR Circus Floyd-o on November 13th?! You know what else is on November 13th??

My bdaaaay 🎉 Born in Scorpio-eel season hell yeah 😂 It’s always a good birthday when at least one of the twins is gifted to me. This event gives me both for free so clearly this is the superior Halloween event yes and

I’m kidding Glorious Masquerade is still my favorite Halloween event but totally open to the Nightmare Before Christmas changing my mind
