NRC Dorm Placement
Tumblr media
my friend and i were discussing what NRC dorm we'd be sorted into, so here's some thoughts on how i interpret the dorms! what dorm do you think you are? 馃憖
.
Heartslabyul: based on how Heartslabyul is talked about, i see the dorm as one with a strong sense of character and unmoving values, possibly stubborn to a point. but its also important to note that its based on a queen who "ruled over a land of madness", so i like to think these students are weird on the inside if not on the outside, and they strive to find order in chaos and typically face troubles head-on. its probably common to have strong core values but they may not necessarily be universal- what the individual thinks is right, not necessarily what is right.
Savanaclaw: now when looking at Savanaclaw, it's main inspiration is "persistence." theyre not known for having students with high marks, but theyre equally as calculated and naturally talented in their respective area as Scarabia. Savanaclaw focuses more everyone having equal chances to succeed. they have the tendency to have a lot of athletically inclined folks, but the dorm is all about the spirit of never giving up in the face of defeat, which is ironic cuz Leona's depression really took over before his overblot.
Octavinelle: Octavinelle is said to be inspired by benevolence and charitableness, and are known for having skilled potion makers only second to Pomefiore. Octavinelle on the other hand has intelligent students, but at it's base the core of the students of this dorm are empathetic and worked their way up to having their reputation. These students are likely to be putting on a show to make up for the fact they didnt start at the top.
Scarabia: described as having very intelligent students, very patient and thoughtful, and to a point perceptive. Scarabia is naturally talented intelligence and highly calculated wisdom waiting for the right moment to strike. These student likely have the tendency to be coasting along in the shadows. Scarabia is defined as being excellent judges of character as well.
Pomefiore: its common to find folks in Pomefiore who are skilled/talented in potion making, but the dorm itself is representative of the Evil Queen's spirit of dedication, which is expressed by staying true to oneself and standing up for ones beliefs and uniqueness. typically quite charming and romanticizes things they love. really appreciates what they see as beautiful in the world.
Ignihyde: very much angry at the world and its history with the human race, but doesnt participate in big rallies for change cuz (in short) philosophy is a bitch. this dorm is known for next generation advancement in modern day magic, especially with the involvement of modern technology (technomancy). most likely highly excels at like one thing they hyperfixate on and thats it. canonically described as "quiet, serious, and not very outgoing" but let me raise to you this: they have one hell of a sense of humor.
Diasomnia: values tradition and wisdom of the past, and are extremely family-oriented. magical prodigies. probably seen as a bit odd or different socially. finds history and anthropology interesting even if they dont excel at it. incredibly loyal and kind-hearted!!

鈿狅笍 CW: imperialism, colonization, genocide, rape mention
I honestly hate to make posts like these because the common response are Yana bootlickers invalidating my say in issues affecting me and harassing me馃槶
But since I've seen not much people bring it up yet. In cased you didn't know New Year's Cater is fsr in Taisho Era clothing, which was an era of Imperial Japan. Thus, fashion from that era is seen as a symbol and glorification of Japanese imperial colonization and brutalization of Koreans, Chinese and Southeast Asians.

"Twst isn't the only game that does this though, I've seen lots of other media use it as an aesthetic fashion choice! You're overreacting/trying to stir up trouble" Yeah unfortunately this, along with Nazi imagery, are still very glorified in Japanese pop culture. Purposeful or not, it being downplayed as just a cutesy Japan aesthetic in popular exported media (their soft power), helps downplay the severity of what Japan did in this era and make it easier for the government to sweep it under the rug.
When it's brought up for popular anime like Demon Slayer by Korean, Chinese or even some SEAsian people, it's not usually heard because anime fans are so quick to shut us down or even joke about Imperial Japan being in the right despite all the cultural genocide and mass rape committed to spite us鈽狅笍 Like I said this only ends in harassment and mockery of us so I wouldn't be saying stuff like this just for fun鈽狅笍
They changed Trey's Vargas camp v-neck ingame after already releasing the promo image already so I hope they can fix this too馃槶
I hope if even not from me, you will at least share this information around for those who aren't aware and tell them how and why it's wrong. Hopefully if enough people bring it up they will notice and change it, if not, then at least do not roll for cater specifically ig馃槶 Other characters are wearing kimonos from eras without problematic implications on this scale afaik

It's kinda funny how TWST fans who complain about people who start "discourse" (it's just people who don't stay silent and ignore present problems to maintain false peace) ruining the fandom are usually the ones who are the worst people making the fandom space worse. Like we're not the ones literally doxxing people over proship discourse here 馃槀
