EverNight Academy: An Twst x EAH AU

This is just a small au combining Twisted Wonderland and Ever After High, a show I rewatched recently.

All characters/OCs are going through the combination method and not the crossover method, but I would try that some time.

And that does mean that every single character is more based on the fairytales other than Disney, which grants me more creativity.

Ask questions and enjoy what I can do with this au!

make me your villain - collab

If you’ve ever wondered how the story might have ended differently if the villain got the girl, you’ve come to the right place.

Everyone loves a bit of a morally grey villain who is only good for that one particular person. The kind that would watch the world burn for you and never think twice about it. The kind that are deadly but also deadly hot.

In this collab you’ll find an array of retold stories with that villainous twist. Please look forward to them in the coming months, as there’s no particular posting time.

Winning Hand Au: So we seen Ozpin side of things but what about Salem side? I imagine Cinder reacting poorly to losing Neo. Extra Ideas (Salem gets a far away look in her eyes as she tells Cinder to avoid them at all cost remembering the horrors before.)

A Winning Hand AU -- Past Horrors

/== Master Post List ==/

The events of terror and horror seizing Beacon did not go unnoticed to Cinder Fall, and when one of her "teammates" fell victim to it she was forced to reconsider her plans. Neo as much as Cinder hated to admit it was a partial lynch pin in her schemes. Neo's abilities were sorely needed... so despite the dread it filled her with... Cinder slid out Vale unnoticed to make a "special" call.

????: Cinder? this is an unexpected, and potentially troublesome call. What do you want?

Cinder: (Head bowed in supplication) My Queen Salem... there has been... developments and they have... compromised my schemes.

Salem: Developments? Cinder I trained you better than to fret over minor...

Cinder: I HAVE to bring you this to your attention. one of my "team' has been... abducted...

Salem: Cinder, this is trivial. Go get her ba...

Cinder: You don't understand my Queen. She was snatched by a CULT! One that is growing almost daily!

Salem: Then destroy it, and bring your "teammate" back into the fold.

Cinder raises her head and looks Salem directly in the eyes. There is concern and hints of fear across Cinder's face.

Cinder: You don't understand! This... this... cult is centered around a lone male... the rest of the membership are all females! Everyone of them either a blond or red-head!

Salem: Did you say it's all made up of Blonds and Red-heads?

Cinder: YES! But what's worse is...

Salem: They're all Baby-Crazy...

Cinder: YES! Wait how did you know that?

Cinder that took a step back in shock, at the shadow of utter terror and horror that crossed Salem's face. Her eyes had a faraway look to them. Cinder knew the signs of someone getting trapped in their memories...

Cinder: My Queen?

Salem: Avoid them at ALL COSTS! In fact withdraw! Get yourself and the remainder of your team out of there... NOW!

Cinder: My Queen? What is...

Salem: What is now forming, has happened once before... a family of such immense strength, power and devotion that it took the combined forces of myself and Ozama to reign them it...

Cinder's hand rose and covered her mouth...

Salem: And STILL we couldn't stop them. We only delayed them... barely delayed them... it was only... only...

Cinder: Only what my queen?

Salem: The Brother Gods... it was them that put an end to that plague... get out of there not Cinder. Grab the remainder of your team and return to EverNight... we must prepare our defenses!

Cinder stood there in utter shock at the revelations that Salem had dumped upon her. The call ended at that point, leaving Cinder trying to come up with a viable escape plan.

She was lucky... she and Emerald did not meet the "criteria" to be snatched... and Mercury was of the wrong gender to interest the group.

Cinder: If my Queen is that scared... is there any hope for any of us?

[howlingday]

Do you think Salem has hobbies if she does what kind of hobbies would she have? What would her inner circles hobbies be?

Let's see... Going for jokes and whatnot, let's see what kind of hobbies Salem and her inner circle probably has.

Salem is literally making Grimm all the time in her black pool. That said, I could see her also being really into cooking and might even watch cooking shows and cooking along with them. She then has her Grimm dispose of what's left of the meals when the inner circle is done eating.

Up next, we have Cinder, who is constantly plotting and scheming of way to become more powerful. It's kinda hard for me to say what she likes to do since most of what she does is all in the interest of serving the purpose of a later goal. That said, I'm having trouble thinking of anything since most of it would be more what she considers a waste of time... except gardening. She has her own personal garden that she plants seeds for and waters until they grow into beautiful flowers or food-stuffs for Salem to cook with. It may also better solidify her ties with Salem.

Tyrian is Salem's oldest and most faithful servant, serving as her tracker and hunter for the Maidens and the relics. Since murder isn't considering a viable hobby, part of me wants to say hunting, though I can't really see Tyrian as a hunting guy. Not with long range methods, anyways. Now fishing is a different story. I could see him dipping his tail into the water, using it was a hook until he yanks up the hapless fish. He also provides Salem with her cooking supplies. Am I just making up a Salem cooking AU? Who know.

Watts is Salem's tech guy, and he is very good at hacking and other computer-based things. Aside from that, I could also see him into other intellectually-driven pursuits. Not chess because chess is too important to the story of RWBY. No, I'm thinking more like crossword puzzles and sudokus. His morning paper is all he needs to have a good time. And if he screws up, he can just erase it because he's not an idiot who fills out the crossword in pen! YOU HAVE PENCILS! USE THEM! ...Wait, what were we talking about?

Hazel. Oh, Hazel, how sad it was to see you go after coming so far. Judging by his size, you'd think he'd be big into weight-lifting and some kind of martial-arts routine, but I think he instead picks up where his sister probably left off with her hobby. I'm thinking things like books or movies or maybe even like tiny horse figurines. Stuff you wouldn't normally associate with an eight-foot-tall brickhouse with an immunity to pain and an unquenchable desire for hate.

Let's see, who else is in Salem's Inner Circle? Looking at the Wiki, it's... Oh no. Ohoho my god... Evernight Castle? No, that's not what it's called, is it? Oh, it is! Oh my god, and it's located in "The Land of Darkness". Yeah, no, Hazel is definitely an MLP fan and he joined the villains to avenge his dead sister. Just... Oh my god... This cannot be real! Ugh... Anyway, who else is there?

Wait, who the hell is Vermillion Raddock? Oh, RWBY: Grimm Campaign. Yeah, one of these days I'll actually see it or hopefully play it, but good golly, will it be a while. Did they ever sell Grimm Campaign merchandise, or was it just a podcast that we had to be members of RT to watch? Oh well, questions for later.

Let's see... Tock... Unnamed female warrior... Oh, Mercury! I guess Emerald isn't a member, either, huh? Or even a member at all? Anyway...

Mercury is probably the easiest to figure out for me. Judging by how he's into sniffing boots and recording genocide, I'm gonna guess he's a blogger of some kind as a hobby. He's not in it for the money, just for the reactions he can get out of people. But then again, I may have a bias against the guy who recorded people being murdered with a smile on his face. Seriously, fuck this guy!

But I could be wrong on all accounts for these characters. What do you guys think?

Everyone wish "Happy birthday" to the most specialist boy in the world!! SnifferMyFeet is 1 year old! 🎂

A face many beyond his mother do love!!

Ah, it feels like only yesterday I critically injured Joel in a 'fic chapter and left him in desperate need of grafts from someone with similar biology, not knowing where I'd go from there... and then I woke a few hours later to find THIS GUY dropped in our laps?? sdlkfj, that will never happen to me again... Sniff, my beloved brain-chemistry-altering deus ex machina...

Anyway, I have a multi-chapter 'fic about Sniff being oh so very baby... So baby, in fact, that he's a newborn hybrid who refuses to nurse from his mother dragon. Huh... What's up with that?

Well, never fear! The Fox Dragon and her hybrid son Rhetoric are on the case! Rhetoric's raised hundreds of foxes... Feeding one little endermite should be a breeze!

🚥 Pixels Imperfect AU

It was only a matter of time before Grian’s off-color soul attracted the wrong attention in the server hub. The thing about foxes is… they like to take. And the Fox Dragon is no exception. Meanwhile, a nurse plots to kidnap a baby. AKA - Grian gets locked in a museum with newborn SnifferMyFeet. Etho and Joel plot to rescue him.

💙  🧡  💚

There's really something to be said about flying west on your mother's back, the sun arcing behind you like a phoenix from the dust. Everything's fuzzy in the early light. Morning's reach casts a great, winged shadow over permafrost and pebbles. Endermen scatter, poofing in zigzags. Ohhh, yes… Rhetoric latches his fingers more tightly in his mother's white and ginger neck fur. His tail streams behind in the wind, flapping like the edges of his open jacket. What a rush. It fights against him, threatening to rip him from the dragon like a picked-off scab.

Look at it all. A rosy pink, purple, and orange glow seeps across the hills. Blue shadows paint their undersides in lumpy triangles hundreds of blocks high, like they were painted with a brush too big for precision. The dropped brush itself could've created this waterless valley. Stray goats and wraiths flicker into view with every hill they pass. They dot the sagebrush and glacier chunks… or what's left of them these days. Slithering monsters with rattly bones and three great necks roam these lands now. Rhetoric can't see them even from the air, but the black roses below wave in the whistling breeze.

They're fresh. Someone would've plucked them up for dye.

The flowers stain the ground in rows like memorial stones. Sculk seeps from a deep scour in the earth just beyond them. Some hybrid in a midnight blue hoodie fights the good fight below, striking with a stone hoe. It's a slow and sticky process; the sculk clings in goopy lines like saliva in a yawn. Yikes. Write home and tell me how that turns out for you.

Charlotte beats her wings and flies beyond it. Rhetoric blinks. Her shadow skims the dry valley below. One by one, flowers slip out of render distance behind them.

The Ender Dragon lurks underground, deep within the cave city of Lower Evernight. Charlotte circles the hill twice, then swoops straight towards the sagebrush and ice. Rhetoric clings to her neck like a bur, arms and legs clamped like honey. The ground blocks blur together, then vaporize in a sweep of smoke. Fox Dragon and hybrid rider drop into the depths of the cave. With a twitch of Mother's claws, her world edit commands repair the gash. Rhetoric shifts, peering past her wispy fur as Charlotte glides across the underground city like a fluffy kite.

This isn't his first time visiting the City of Ever-Shifting Blocks. Granted, it… might be his second. But the cave's no less breathtaking than he remembers, and that's saying a lot for a guy immune to drowning. Endflame lanterns gleam far below, lighting the darkness with pricks of purple. Everything's arranged in a circle like a giant chocolate chip cookie. It'd take all 98 of the Between dimension's dragons to devour one of those, and he snorts at the thought. His mother's mane ripples against his cheek and he nestles tighter to her fur.

It's easier, traveling with a dragon in a place like this. The aboveground world's in anarchy and a city filled with enderman never keeps its streets and signposts for long. Everybody wants pretty things. The easiest way to keep things involves taking them when you see them around. In a way, it's no surprise Jean and Charlotte are thick as, well…

(He chuckles at his own joke.)

Jean's nursing cave lies tucked away, high on the underground city's wall, where her children can reach her if they need to, but will probably think twice before making the effort. Beyond triplet endflame lanterns (one to either side of the door, one above) and a small viewing platform encased in a fence, it lacks decoration. Only on the outside, though… What professional thief openly displays her goods in a city of pickpockets? Hm. Rhetoric's last trip to Evernight ended on that viewing platform. Will Jean step out again this time?

Or are we going in? The ever-present itch - the need - to go deeper coils in the backs of his hands.

With a few swishes and swoops, Charlotte lands like a perching parrot in front of the iron door that divides it. She folds in her wings, almost knocking Rhetoric straight off. Not today. Her form blurs, melting in size and color, until she's standing like a hybrid with a swishing ginger tail. And from there, she slides Rhetoric from her arm to the ground. Charlotte wore her fox-eared hoodie and baggy pocket-covered pants for this trip. Out of place? Undignified? Below her status? Perhaps… but Rhetoric can't blame her. Showing up at her mother's door in her usual treasure hunter's garb probably wouldn't go over well. At least this way, she's inconspicuous in a crowd. Only the five glowing dots pulsing on the underside of her left wrist would give her away.

Rhetoric unbuckles the saddle still hanging from her back. Since he has no inventory space himself (Born without it; long story), he goes to set it on the ground… then stops. He glances over the rail at at the violet lights of the city far below. Hmm…

The thing about Evernight is, not only are there thieves lurking here, and not only can they see in the dark, but endermen and endermites alike can teleport. They could be watching him as they speak. And there's a drop straight to the Void down there somewhere. Endermen and endermites can swim in the Void. Fox hybrids can't. He tucks the saddle under his arm instead.

Charlotte keeps her ear pressed to cold iron. "I don't hear babies," she reports. "Let's give this a shot."

"I'll be ready to grab."

Charlotte presses the button beside the door. It pops open, whacking her arm, and they both jump back. No babies scramble for freedom from the nursing cave, but the small hall between them and the next door is filled with water. Clever… Baby enderman probably make one attempt to escape and never again.

They wade over, taking careful steps in their boots. This iron door, though, must have its button on the other side. To be polite, Charlotte takes the stick from the wall and knocks, introducing herself with a call… but the grunt they get in response is as much of a "Let yourself in," as you'll ever get. Fair enough. With a wave of her hand, Charlotte dissolves the neighboring blocks with world edit, then steps around the door in the place they used to stand. Rhetoric follows with the saddle, ducking out just before the blocks rematerialize behind him.

Oh. Hels. Yes. Now, this is the treasure-filled cavern he'd envisioned on his last visit, lying awake in the embassy kicking and squirming, unable to lie still unless his eyes and fingers could caress secret ores and gems. "Kick me, Mother, for I am dreaming," he mutters.

Summer Fic Reading Challenge Bingo [1/?]

Bingo Number 1 on my summer reading challenge card from @ficreadingchallenge. These are all works that I've read and commented on since getting my card. I used to get really competitive over finishing my summer reading challenge every summer at the library so this is really fun :)

Canon Compliant: This Word Lies at the Bottom of a Lake by berhanes [Remus/Sirius, T, 7k]

Briefly he'd considered going to visit Remus, but Sirius has too many stacked up feelings about him to add any more, and he doesn't trust himself not to ruin their carefully patched situation in the wake of the incident – it's only been a year, after all, and there's no better way to shatter a barely recovered friendship than by doing something stupid like throwing out a declaration of love in the middle of explaining the myriad ways in which your family is deranged and terrible. So instead Sirius had hailed the Knight Bus and requested Bowness-on-Windermere.

No Powers AU: the horoscope by lirians [James/Lily, T, 14k]

James stops momentarily to give way to a bunch of rambunctious teenagers on the pavement before he regains his step. Lily has come to a halt a bit further, waiting on him. “Horoscopes?” he asks as they move onwards. He’s relieved that any awkwardness between them is apparently gone. “How so?” “Marly sent me mine this week because it said I would meet someone from the past again,” she explains. “I’m still not sold on the idea of it, but isn’t this weird?”

Free Space: don’t want to miss our little talks by dukeaubergine [Severus & Lily, T, 1k]

Lily breaks the news of her pregnancy to her best friend.

Work In Progress: Evernight by LilRinnieB [Harry/Severus, E, 331k]

It's Harry's seventh year at Hogwarts and the new strategy in the war against Voldemort is "Fight darkness with darkness." Harry goes through a series of changes that has him questioning everything he thought he ever knew about magic, darkness, destiny … and a certain snarky Potions professor. (I've rec'd this before but it just updated so...)

Sports AU: Learning How To Fall Properly by FivePips [Remus/Sirius, M, 60k]

Remus Lupin meets 2/3 of the Marauders while getting harassed by a few homophobes. He meets the third at the skatepark and soon falls into this group of friends, who are so much more than just the delinquents the residents of their town think they are. This story goes out and beyond their teen years, following accomplishments and heartbreaks and maybe a gold medal or two.

[isolarya]

do not go gentle into that good night

the fic belonging to what I'm calling evernight au, what is basically a fantasy apocalypse au of dead poets society

currently undrafted but I'm working on a plan for it and I'm quite excited so we'll see where it goes (please forgive me if it takes a while or never gets done but I thought I'd share it anyway)

here's a draft of the summary:

It is winter. It has been winter for seventeen years. It will be winter until the end of time.

But Neil can stop it. If he does everything right, if he holds his head up when he walks to the slaughter, no one else has to die. All he has to do is let go, and he can bring spring back to Welton.

Todd chooses not to let him go.

(in which the winter has devoured welton whole, and neil perry was always born to die.)

other stuff that I know is almost definitely in the fic:

anderperry

major character death

fluff and angst

probably a long fic

(also if anyone's interested in being a beta reader for this fic, please send me an ask off-anon/dm me, I would love to talk about Them with others lmao)

EverNight Academy: Ace Wonderland, son of Alice in Wonderland

Ace Wonderland is the son of Alice in Wonderland. He is just as adventurous as she was as a child, which often gets him into trouble.

This makes him much like his mom, even having a hard relationship with Riddle Hearts, son of the Queen of Hearts, but it's more like rivalry of sorts.

Status: Royal

[mirabilismayhem]

Lore Time!

So, in each of the posts I’ve made, I’ve had something like “20 of month 7” or something. That’s due to the calendar system I have here!

Each year starts on the Summer Sun Celebration, and has been such since Nightmare Moon’s defeat. Since they switched to that calendar for the new era, it’s only gotten to a 1005 AL (After Luna). Though, Celestia never liked that phrasing and people mostly forgot Luna, instead remembering Nightmare Moon, so it’s mostly AN or AE now (After Nightmare or After Evernight)

It’s been about five years and six months since Luna’s return depending on the post you’re looking at, hence the extra 5 on there. Due to this calendar, it’s currently winter despite “month 6” usually being associated with summer for the northern hemisphere.

Also! I never actually finished mlp. I only watched up to… a bit after Starlight and Twilight’s time travel stuff? So do keep that in mind. I know majority of the stuff that happens after, but since I was never invested in it I probably won’t make stuff like the school relevant. I’ll have to decide what I want to do with the changelings though…

Reminder, please ask about anyone you wanna know about! It gets my creative juices going and as such is more likely to get you guys content faster! If you wanna know what Fluttershy is up to? Ask! Rarity? Ask away! I can’t promise that every single character will be involved in the main plot, but especially further into the au I’ll be likely to have some sort of story for them.

Something something The Nameless AU Venti growing up in a rogue planet that once got shot out of its star system by another passing star. Venti having left that world a long time ago, wandering from one place to the next

He's happy to talk about it when asked, about the bioluminescent life that evolved, the ever changing evernight sky never staying the same as the planet floats across the vastness of space, about how the people there managed to live and thrive despite uncertainties, about how those that left believe they will encounter its path again someday

He doesn't say why he left other than curiosity of the greater universe. He doesn't specify which starless planet it was. He doesn't mention anything about ever going back, simply the hopes of coming across it again. Venti says nothing as he looks through the window as the Astral Express passes by the cooling remains of a shattered planet orbiting each other in darkness

[away-ward]

Things that happen in the Willemmy friends-to-lovers au I now have playing on repeat in the back of my mind:

It's after Will's graduation and there is a party at the warehouse.

Emory shows up with Elle because she thinks this is the last opportunity she'll have to see Will. She doesn't usually waste her time with parties. She doesn't plan on talking to him. She just wants to watch for a while.

He clocks her the second she walks in. He's been wanting to talk to her for a long time but she always seemed to give him the cold shoulder when he tried to approach. He didn't know how to get in with her.

He circles for a while, not wanting to jump on her and scare her away. Eventually he finds his opening and they end up talking for a while.

They end up talking right into the backseat of his truck and Will can't believe this is happening.

She slows things down, somewhat unintentional, but she's also just nervous. This wasn't her plan... she does really like him... but this is stupid. Acting rashly like this is how you get pregnant or an STD.

They end up talking and making out all night. Mostly talking though. She can't stop herself from being critical of his privilege. He can't stop thinking she's beautiful. And smart. Smarter than him that's for sure. He's not sure why they're not having sex. That's what he's good at. All they're doing is talking, but she hasn't left yet...

They talk until the sun starts coming up. They get out and watch the sunrise from the bed of his truck. It's another Thunder Bay Holiday, similar to evernight, devil's night, and firenight, and Will tells her about it's history and tradition. She asks if he's not doing anything, could they spend the day together.

The tradition picks up later in the evening, so technically his morning is free. But he's never spent the day with a girl he spent the night with, even if they technically didn't sleep together.

He says yes anyway.

There's other stuff that follows the other plots of one day, but one of the things that happens is

After em graduates and goes to SF, Will texts her from wherever he's traveled to. Sometimes he's not also in the most sober condition. This time he is. He's a little lonely even though he's surrounded by people. It's early in SF (he keeps a clock on his phone that tells him the time in three place: wherever he's at, Thunder Bay, and SF), but he texts her what he's thinking anyway. She'll probably read all his nonsense when she wakes up, roll her eyes, send back an emoji and then carry on with her day. But to his surprise she's up.

He doesn't know what to say now, knowing she's paying attention. His words are so much more important now.

She tells him about thea, her roommate and all the drama surrounding her. It sounds like fun. It sounds like she enjoyed her first year away from Thunder Bay. His first year away was horrible, but he made it through. Kinda.

In fact, it's summer again. She might be home already. He asks if she'll be home for the summer. He hopes the answer is yes.

She says she and thea found an apartment to rent with some others. She'll be working in SF, but might be home sometime.

He doesn't know what to say. He wants to see her. Hates that she has to work instead of play during her time off.

She comments that she was lucky enough to get a bedroom with a good view. One of her new roommates has a view of the neighbor's brick wall.

He asks for a picture. She sends one from her bedroom window, and based on context, he can tell that the room is small. Her bed is pushed up against the window sill. He can see her knees in the picture, as if she hadn't bothered to move from where she was sitting. He now imagines her curled on her bed, sipping a cup of coffee, talking to him while watching the sunrise like she did two years ago.

He looks at that picture all the time.

Just thought you might like to know what happens when I reread the one day posts.
