What if scar never realizes he has powers/an origin to begin with

One day he'd respawn as a merling and just think the game's bugged for him

Another day when he dies and gets a winged origin, he'd just think he was given elytra to protect him

And when he gets an origin that changes his size he'd either not notice it at all and just move on or thinks he was finally given an origin (depends on height of the origin)

-✨️anon

Scar, literally on fire, tinted red, and floating a few blocks off the ground: Yeah so, I just don't have an origin I guess. Kinda sad, but at least I don't have to worry about not being able to wear armour or being allergic to water or something, huh?

Whoever he's talking to: ...Right...

big fan of when grief drives characters to do fucked up things that are ultimately pointless and do more harm than good rather than just like. going to therapy

GUYS… 💀

Skully J. “I greet you with a kiss” Graves

You wake up in his arms after blacking out

Calls you “my dear” and “lovely”/“wonderful” even though we literally just met

Comments that your names are beautiful

Offers to escort you (well, Trey technically) through the woods even though Skully has no idea where tf he’s going

Remarks that it would be nice to hold hands and stroll through the forest together

He tends to use the term "fated" to refer to things he has in common with others

Is the first character in all of Twst to have a BLUSHING face

He holds your hand and kisses you (on the back of it??) without even waiting or asking for your okay (avert your eyes, Grim…)????

HE ALSO KISSES GRIM AND ALL THE OTHER BOYS ON THE HAND

HE KISSES YUU MULTIPLE TIMES THROUGHOUT THIS EVENT

HE WALKED OUT OF a DAtinG SIM 😭

Other Skully facts:

He’s taller than Malleus (not including the horns, just judging by the models) and Sebek (stated explicitly in the dialogue)

He’s is a first year student

He’s 16, same age as the other first years (though Skully only recently turned 16)

Speaks very respectfully, even to fellow first years (Riddle remarks on Skully being very gentlemanly and even Vil calls Skully elegant)

He refers to himself using an archaic form of “I” (wagahai)

HE’S AN OTAKU FOR HALLOWEEN, he calls Jack Skellington “Jack Skellington-sama” and says Jack is the person he admires the most dbsksbsiqguzvs

Skully asks everyone else call him Jack-sama too

He comes from a small isolated fog-shrouded rural village; it is located at the bottom of a valley

His hometown considers Jack Skellington the founder of Halloween; Jack Skellington is not known outside of this village

The people in Skully’s hometown love Halloween and its founder, Jack

He seems to be sleep deprived???

Skully tries to tell others at his school about Halloween and Jack, but his peers don’t listen and get mad at him

Skully doesn’t like to talk about his school (and seems to actively dislike it, calling his classmates fools and asking to avoid the topic of school)

He self-admits to not having many people who understand him

Confirmed a mage (Leona says he has the same amount of magic as Epel), but he doesn’t have a magical pen/doesn't seem to know what they are???

He doesn't know Malleus either.

Skully claims he was also sucked into the book while attending the used book fair in Foothill Town

Chunibyo?? Like, he presents as mysterious initially but actually has very excitable reactions to things, lots of purple prose too

Leona calls him a BADGER

He calls his classmates “worthless” for not understanding/listening to him

He thinks lowly of those who disagree with his opinions on Halloween; there is a drastic shift in his personality when the NRC students express dissent

Skully’s ideal Halloween is solemn and desolate, involving: beating up all ghosts, painting rooms entirely black, no decorations, and no music

This is how his village spends Halloween, in solemn silence; Skully grew up thinking this is how it always is

He likes classical music and opera

He acts gentlemanly because he believes Jack is also a gentleman

He wants to learn piano someday

Skully believes that staying traditional and respecting and protecting the past is important

Details about his unique magic

(Side note: GRIM’S NEW oUTFIT 👌 He looks perfect in that suit!! LOOKS At HIS WIDDLE PAW gLOVES… And the chest fluff sticking out gives the illusion of a cravat! Aaaaaah, so cute 💕)

watching mstief’s writing the raven cycle webinar and I just want everyone to know that she just explicitly stated that adam was supposed to go full villain in her first draft but changed her mind bc “the worst thing that could happen is they stop being friends”

[sableeira]

And Dazai is like: omg how did he figure it out?!?!?!?

Raven you just gave me an idea for a scenario (based on my last ask/idea)

Sparrow: So, you're saying you don't have any abilities?

Scar: Unless you count mining and crafting, nope

Sparrow: But you're all sparkly and stuff

Scar: Like the look? I do a lot of skin routines and self care to get this sparkly effect. Many say it looks pretty magical

2 scar deaths later:

Scar: Huh, no powers again? I must be real unlucky for this to happen

Sparrow: Scar, you have an orange tint to you and are literally floating 3 blocks in the air as well as being i don't know, ON FIRE

Scar: I appreciate the compliment but that might be a visual bug on your part pal, it's completely normal for me

-✨️anon

ASWTDRYTFUGKIYFT YES, THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS GOING FOR!!

(This ask references this post! :D)

Just a friendly reminder!! I know that we're a new life blog, but I also know that many of our followers are active in the wider mcyt sphere, please remember to be supportive of all players and especially newer ones or people who might get a lot of negative feedback. Like op said, there is a time and place for washed up jokes, and as funny as it is during limited life or on hermitcraft, it is inappropriate during mcc 💞

-Raven

lads if etho streams i don't want a single washed up joke in his chat okay? you have one assignment and that is to ENCOURAGE and CHEER HIM ON because we want him to keep playing after this i am begging. there's a time and a place for washed up jokes and during mcc? please do not!!

One thing I genuinely think the fandom forgets or underestimates is just how weird Neil is. Like we paint him to be this carismatic, flashy, cocky bad boy, but in reality he's stingy, skittish, balks at anything more personal then his thoughts on Exy and Cannot for the life of him socialize. Like in the Raven King, right after Seth dies, he straight up goes:

"Neil had to patch things up with [Allison] somehow, but he didn't know where to start. He'd never been good at winning people over. Someone like Allison wasn't likely to be his first success. "

Neil's spent his life living on the outskirts of "average" life. Ergo, he's cagey and flighty and so far removed from normal that even among the Foxes he'll always be a little unpredictable and odd. And you know what, good for him; we all deserve an antisocial introverted asshole to raly behind.

[raven-at-the-writing-desk]

he’s so real for this

Nightmare Suit Leona has a voice line in which (rough translation, not word for word) he warns you that Skully isn’t actually as gentlemanly as you might think he is, he’s actually very improper. The reasoning Leona cites is that Skully doesn’t even wait or get the okay from you first before kissing your hand.

… Leona “Consent King”-scholar, everyone 😌

Edit: In the event story itself, Skully says he is so happy, he’ll kiss everyone again. Leona tells him if he values his life, then don’t. CONSENT 👏 KING 👏
