#hate how i relate and/or see parts of me in kalim

[axvwriter]

This is pointing out to me another element that I might relate to Kalim with but I hate that element thus I don’t like Kalim-

The idea that there’s a lot of basic things he may not know how to do but no one’s willing to teach him.

There’s things I want to know how to do but when I try to ask how to do it, the most common answer I get is “it wasn’t as easy to do back in my day”. So I guess I have to figure it out myself and I don’t even get to hear how they figured it out back then?!

The always happy act is something that interests me as a character trait, but I guess there’s a few too many upsettingly relatable things about Kalim that I rather ignore him.

Hearing the more analyzed and/or the more depth about Kalim’s character is something I feel like I need to hear or I’m going to keep trying to label him as annoying idiot.

Can we please talk about how tone deaf and horribly ableist a lot of Kalim's fandom characterisation is 😭

Like he's portrayed as a complete incompetent moron, an utterly useless idiot because... he doesn't get good grades or understand schoolwork, he misreads social cues/situations, he's happy all the time, and he can't do certain things by himself.

Wow

Why is it so hard to understand that your that your academic performance or understanding has nothing to do with how smart you are? And neither is your ability to read social situations. I don't even need to get started on not being able to do things yourself because that applies to so many disabilities and disabled people are thought of as stupid or useless or both.

And of course, there's the idea he's an utterly naive dumbwit who can't sense danger or has any worry about it. Have you. Have you not heard of... acting. Or trying to push the fear down. Which I think Kalim does.

He has literally talked about how people have tried to assassinate him. He has literally been poisoned. He has experienced that danger. He is afraid. He doesn't allow anyone but Jamil to make his food. That's a pretty good sign, considering he was, again, poisoned.

Leave Kalim alone please 😭

why am i me?

characters: deuce spade, cater diamond, leona kingscholar, kalim al-asim, vil schoenheit summary: you can’t help but compare yourself to those you see on social media warnings: overall mentions of insecurity about appearance/personality, reader wears makeup (vil), kind of implied post book 4 (kalim), possibly ooc, anyone can be pretty, grammar is what i want it to be

Deuce Spade  “Why is everyone on this app prettier than me?” you mused, looking through the pictures of various magicam stars. “Ugh, I hate it here,” you said dramatically as you threw your phone down against the couch.  “Did someone say something?” Deuce was already on his feet, ready to fight someone on your behalf.  With calculated words and good reasoning skills of course. Not fists, never fists.  “No one said anything I just feel…” you trailed off, hoping you didn’t have to say it but your boyfriend’s look of concern pushed you on.  “…lackluster compared to everyone else.”  "That's not true!" His enthusiasm about it almost startled you. "I think you're the prettiest in all of twisted wonderland."  "But look at all these people." You went to retrieve your phone but Deuce intercepted you and tossed it on a nearby table. You were slightly concerned about the state of the screen but were quickly distracted.  "Those people don't matter right now, so stop comparing yourself to them." He sat next to you. "I like you how you are, and I won't stop reminding you of that until you realize you're just as pretty, if not exceeding in prettiness, compared to everyone else."

Cater Diamond  He couldn't say he didn't relate to you, but other things were more important at the moment.  Cater watched your frustrated face as you tried to pull off the latest trend on magicam. He wished he could secretly capture it and post it with a 'totes adorbs' caption but he had promised you not to do that without permission.  "I can help you if you want," he offered from across the table.  "I got this," you assured him. "I just need to figure out how they did this one part."  You also needed to figure out how they did the part after that, and the one after that.  Cater could tell, and you could tell that he could tell. There was no other option at this point.  "Okay, I need help."  The next few minutes consisted of Cater leading you through the steps of the trend but you just couldn't get it down like everyone else seemed to. Cater could sense the previous frustration was close to making you even more upset.  "How about you do it this way." He shifted your phone so it'd be easier.  "But it looks cooler the way everyone else is doing it," you said as you moved it back in place.  "What if we do it as a couple? That'll be cool."  "You promise?"  "I promise," Cater said as he took control of your phone again.

Leona Kingscholar  Laying next to Leona in his bed, you scrolled through your magicam feed to find that some students in your class were throwing a party.  "Do you ever feel like we're not fun enough?"  He barely shifted to look at you, his green eyes opening to meet yours.  "What do you mean by that?"  "Like we never go to parties or school events and stuff." You sat up. "Places where people have fun."  Leona was sitting up ever so slightly now. "Do you really want to hang out with people you barely know?"  You stopped to think about the excruciating small talk you'd have to go through since as far as you knew none of your friends were going to be attending.  "I know I'd rather be spending my time here with you," Leona broke the brief silence. "It's fun in our own way."  "Really?"  "You heard me, herbivore. I'm not gonna say it again." He settled back down.  Giving no response you dove back to where you were laying. Leona grabbed you by your waist and pulled you towards him, settling his face in the crook of your neck. You smiled, knowing spending the evening in his arms would be much more fun than some party.

Kalim Al-Asim  With your living conditions being less than ideal, you couldn't say you had the resources to buy any trendy or expensive clothes.  This often caused you to silently lament over the fashion of others, sometimes growing into jealousy. The worst part was that you felt bad whenever you became envious of your boyfriend, Kalim, who was by no means lacking in money.  Today was one of those days.  Watching him sift through his latest shopping spree you found yourself becoming quieter in your responses. You didn't think he would notice until he spoke.  "Is something wrong? You're not as energetic as normal."  "No, I'm just feeling a bit tired right now." You tried to force a smile as you reassured him. But he could sense something was up with your facade.  "Did you want to go shopping too? I know you said you were busy but we can always go again," Kalim said, moving closer to you.  "I'm fine, I don't exactly have the funds for it anyway."  "I can pay!" Always the optimist, a smile spread across his face. "We can make a date out of it!"  "Thank you for offering but I don't want to use you like that," you said.  "I'll be okay." He met your eyes. "Please let me do this for you."  You couldn't help but smile at Kalim's actions. "Okay, let's go."  "Yay! Shopping date here we come!"  "Maybe we should ask Jamil first," you suggested while you took his hand as he led you out of the dorm.

Vil Schoenheit  You shuffled across the floor of the pomfiore dorm, phone dangling from your hand as students both avoided you and somehow led you to who you were there to see.  "I'm sorry if I'm bothering you but-"  "My dear potato, you could never bother me," Vil turned to look at you. "What's the matter?"  You stared at your shoes for a moment, too embarrassed to show your face even from this far away. Sensing your apprehension, he stood and took even, elegant steps your way.  "If you don't tell me, I can't help you."  You finally raised your head to make eye contact with the man. "I tried a makeup tutorial I saw online and I look like a clown, not in a fun way. I don't understand how the person in the pictures looks so good and I can't."  "Show me what you were going for, I'm sure I'll be able to help."  Over the duration of the afternoon, Vil showed you not only the proper way to perform the look you were going for but also what colors suited you best and the proper technique to use. He even redid your makeup and allowed you to borrow some items from his collection to use for practice.  Vil sat you in front of his vanity mirror, letting you get used to your new appearance. You inspected how the soft hues looked against your skin, how they complimented you much better than the ones before, enhancing your nose and showing off your eye shape.  "I went with something more natural looking," he said from behind you. "I hope you don't mind, liebling, for you are lovely just the way you are."

Dorm leaders with a s/o who loves horror movies 

(and other creepy media)

Jumping back into it! Might be a little rusty :)

Warnings- horror movie discussion, slight fem implication but not really, fluff, cheesiness, a lil OOC but nothing extreme, author is so tired rn just pretend we can show them media from our world for my sake plz

Riddle Rosehearts

Riddle is a little afraid of horror movies

His mother had never allowed him to watch anything over pg-13, so he’s really unaware of the wonders of horror media

You probably start him off with scarier kids movies, like Coraline

He’s really freaked out by the opening scene

(Probably deeply relates the other mother to his own)

If you get him into more objectively terrifying movies, like (one of my favs) Texas Chainsaw Massacre, he’ll try to distract himself by holding on to you, and talking about the camerawork, the artistic value and all that

He will sit with you on the couch, hands covering his eyes, peeking out slightly

Doesn’t love overt guts and all that, but probably enjoys the more subtle, unnerving horror, that’s what really freaks him out

Considers you to be extremely brave, probably brags to the other dorm leaders about you

“I’m not afraid! This is just distasteful!”

Leona Kingscholar

He also probably enjoys horror movies, but when he watches them with you, he feels the need to prove himself a little

Loves cheesy slasher flicks, especially if you both sit there and make fun of them together

Adores watching B horror movies with you, the worse the movie, the more fun you both have

Hates the tropes involving women in those types of films, thinks its super disrespectful to assume girls are stupid enough to just open the door for the killer

*Cue eye roll*

One of those people who either falls asleep mid movie, or talks through it with you, either way it's pretty fun

Adores the more old school horror, like 1931’s Dracula and creepy comedy, like The Addams Family

People tend to characterize him as a lazy brute, but he’s also a royal, so he probably grew up appreciating some art and vintage media, so I think he’d appreciate black and white movies

(he’d rather die than admit it, but he definitely feels all mushy inside watching the Addams Family)

He also probably gets mildly disturbed during build up scenes, jumpscares and all that, but it’s usually just because of his heightened beastman senses

“Of course it didn’t jump, stop being ridiculous.”

Azul Ashengrotto

Hes terrified, I’ll just leave that there

Jkjk I could never leave out my favorite fishman

He’s horrified during practically any part of the movie, but especially during the big finale scene (think Scream) 

However big is fear is, his need to prove himself as a big strong manly man is even bigger, so he’ll act like he’s not scared at all

He;s really bad at it tho, so expect to literally have him on your lap by the credits

He definitely sticks to the less scary movies, like The Boy which just sort of unnerved him more than anything

If you’re like, a super horror buff, he’ll stick around as best as he can

He wants to encourage your interests!

Pro tip: invite the twins to come around for a big movie night, they’ll be cracking jokes throughout while Azul looks like he’s about to combust

“Jade! Floyd! Stop laughing or I’ll cut your salary!” 

Kalim Al-Asim

You'd think he’s gonna be scared don’t you?

This man fears nothing on a screen, literally 

Honestly he probably is a bigger fan of analogue horror than anything

Loves Mandela Catalogue 

He enjoys the fresh, new format that it provides, probably because of how easily bored he gets

Literally sits through everything with a calm-to-happy expression

Every time a new flick catches your attention, he’ll get tickets

If you’re a buff who gets scared easily (Me too!) he’ll be sure to tease you about it

Lots of hugs during movies

Another one who jokes about cheesy jumpscares, somehow never even the slightest bit startled

“What's so scary? You wanna see something terrifying, look at Jamil when he realizes I’m throwing another banquet!” 

Vil Shoenheit

Tbh he’s probably acted in horror movies

As the aforementioned horror

Thinks a lot of them are distasteful

Probably because he’s scared (jk)

Has his arm around your shoulder during the whole movie, its for his sake, but you're not complaining

Loveloveloves discussing the practical effects and prosthetics with you

Unrealistic fake blood bores him severely 

Another fan of cheap B horror movies, just for the makeup

You’ve never heard him laugh harder then during some sloppy CGI scene

Literally tears in his eyes

“T-the Hair- oh my Goddess Liebling, look at his HAIR!”

Idia Shroud

 Horror?

He’s in heaven!

Idia is a BIG fan of horror media, primarily horror manga and anime

If you want to win him over for life, introduce him to the work of Junji Ito 

His favorite Junji Ito manga is his rendition of Frankenstein

Deeply personal, also he’s mildly terrified of the hubris of man

The both of you sit in your own little blanket cocoons (unless you wanna share one…) and watch horror movies in his room

Deeply analyzes horror movies with psychological aspects, it's one of his favorite things to do!

 If it's a little late at night, you’ll notice his eyes flit around the room, just keeping watch

Slasher flicks are some of his fav non-anime horror, the tropes keep him excited

“I knew it! I-I mean it was easy enough to figure out, if you check out the context clues and-”

Malleus Draconia

Hm?

He’s extremely inexperienced when it comes to modern media, and horror is completely foreign to him

Malleus probably asked why humans like scaring themselves so much, it seems silly to him

He is open to the idea of watching these films with you, as long as you are happy, he is

Probably enjoys horror comedies most of all, the morbid humor is enjoyable to him

Watching horror movies with Malleus will always include big bowls of ice cream, warm pajamas, and plenty of questions

Lover of horror movies that discuss more mundane human life, because it is so foreign to him

Like Black Christmas 1974

He thinks you are a confusing little human, for enjoying looking at things that terrify and mortify yourself and others

And he wouldn’t want you any other way

“Child of man, what is so horrifying about this movie exactly?”

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thank you for reading! This is a new acc, but i'll probs repost this on Ao3, also, Vil with German nicknames is so

Cater Info Compilation part 8: Childhood

There are occasional hints throughout the game that, while Cater is from the Shaftlands, his family moved often when he was a child (he is the only main cast member in Heartslabyul who is not from the Queendom of Roses).

We get the full story during Halloween, along with the reason why Cater is so attached to Magicam.

At first we see Cater dealing with NRC’s newfound Magicam fame. While experiencing “a major bump in followers”, Cater explains, “my notifications are blowing up hard with replies and DMs from old IRL acquaintances. And when I say ‘old’ I mean, like, elementary school old."

One particular acquaintance seems especially persistent, even going so far as to call Cater directly, though he refuses to answer.

While discussing the situation Lilia receives a phone call from Sebek and answers immediately, interrupting the conversation, to Cater’s surprise.

(While helping Lilia handle Malleus’ meltdown, triggered by the Magicam Monsters, Cater explains “It’s not as if these people hate Malleus. Which isn’t to say that they like him, either. It’s ultimately about chasing a trend. Just like my old acquaintances.” The trend they’re chasing being Cater himself.)

Cater’s plan to distract the Magicam Monsters works and he witnesses Lilia reminding Malleus “We may not be related by blood, but we ARE family”.

Cater silently reflects, “Lilia’s developed cherished relationships while living in the same place his whole life. There’s no way he could ever understand how helpless I feel.”

Cater is interrupted by a phone call from Trey that he answers immediately.

The vignette ends with Cater saying “Like always, we’ll all probably go our separate ways in four years.”, but it seems that four years is actually a long time to be in the same location, for Cater.

Cater explains that his dad works for a bank and his entire family would relocate whenever he was transferred to a new location, approximately once every two years.

Cater explains, “But for all the people I met, one thing never changed. I would always leave, and they would always stay. That’s why I always tried to be on good terms with everyone, rather than forge strong bonds with a chosen few. Like a circus performer who has a grand old time with people from around the world, and then packs up and moves on. In that sense, Magicam’s been seriously great because I can get messages from people I knew at school three years ago. I can have all the casual connections I can handle. And that’s just my speed, right?”

Kalim insists that distance is no reason to keep people at arm’s length and offers Cater the use of his flying carpet to visit his Magicam friends, while Lilia observes, “In deciding not to get too close to any one person, you may be the wisest one here, Cater.”

(During Wish Upon a Star we learn that Trey and Cater were roommates for the two years and we get a cryptic line from Trey: “You’d think he’d be open to sharing one of his actual wishes by now. Then again he is…just not with me.”)

(There is a fan theory that this ties back into Cater’s decision to not get too close to anyone as he is closer to Trey than he has ever been to anyone else and wants a buffer zone of untold secrets so as not to get any closer before they graduate and go their separate ways.)

We've had RSA Kalim, but what about Noble Bell College Kalim?

Oh god, it feels like an equivalent of sending your careless offspring to a small boarding school that is also a Church lol But knowing Kalim, he’s just going to somehow bring along the party atmosphere. Kalim can’t just live without good food and good time lol Rollo is going to hate him…

I think we should keep Kalim away from NBC. For Rollo’s sake.

Anonymous asked:

How would you feel about Azul and the Tweels meeting Najma? It would be hilarious to think about it to see Jamil's sister.

Since we haven’t watched the event in which Najma appears yet, I can’t say for certain, but I am torn between “let’s keep the Tweels away from Najma for Najma’s sake” and “let’s keep the Tweels away from Najma for Jamil’s sake” lol, and the more I think about it, the more I see the latter option.

In any case! Poor Jamil, he’ll have to deescalate this shitshow in any scenario lol

Anonymous asked:

Any thoughts on Azul x Silver? Azul is one of the few people I could see Lilia potentially not being supportive of as a partner for Silver.

That one vignette in which Azul was trying to teach Silver how to assert dominance was fun! I like how Azul acknowledges that Silver is a very useful asset and someone he should definitely be close to, so it’s a very nice reason to ship the two. Plus, Silver is so sweetly gullible and so ready to do as he’s told, in some ways Azul might find him to be a perfect partner. Not only he’s very “pliable” and obedient, he’s also influential in Diasomnia, which is the hardest dorm for Azul to stick his tentacles in.

But yeah, Lilia probably wouldn’t be supportive of that lol He might actually enter the “scary dad” phase if these two started spending more time together.

Anonymous asked:

At first I was a bit skeptical about the idea of Kalim overblotting. Not because I don't believe that Jamil's death wouldn't be traumatic enough, but because aside for strong negative emotions, you generally also need to overuse your magic to overblot. While he can use magic a bit frivolously, I never got the vibe of him abusing it too much.

But you made me realize that Jamil death might be the perfect chance. Even if his family found a substitute, no one could make up for Kalim's shortcomings and understand his strengths like Jamil did. Even if someone that capable existed, he wouldn't let them get close enough to find out. So I think he would try to manage everything by himself, maybe even abusing magic to work around all those obstacles that are beyond his abilities. He would start to live a life similar to Jamil's, with little space for rest or peace, even though he clearly isn't cut out for it.

So it probably wouldn't happen right away, but eventually his stressful lifestyle and the lingering sorrow (maybe even guilt, if he feels responsible) over Jamil's death would lead to him overblotting. It wouldn't matter if his Phantom consumed him. Jamil always gave all he had without esitation, so it's only fair that he keeps doing all he can, even if it kills him.

(this is related to our reply from this post)

Yeah, but the thing about overblot is that it doesn’t seem to always need both emotional distress and overuse of magic to occur: Leona didn’t use much magic when he overblotted I think, and Vil’s overblot happened for the most part due to him being severely overstressed and frustrated; that’s why I assume that just losing Jamil, who is the dearest person to him, could be enough for Kalim to snap. But then again, overblots are supposed to be rare, but it’d just show just how painful it was to him to lose Jamil.

But the scenario that you’ve described is also possible, because Kalim’s life is definitely going to change drastically after losing Jamil. It doesn’t have to be an immediate thing, and the changes in his life and actions, especially with the addition of despair and guilt, would absolutely affect him.

[raggstorice]

who's your favorite twisted wonderland character, and why?

How do I even choose?

I have different reasons for liking all of my favs

(I will expand on all of these if asked. Please ask. Please. Id analyze any character in twst if asked I love them all)

Ace: I love how blunt he is. He doesn't sugarcoat his feelings as he speaks up for himself, others, and what he thinks is right. He can be an idiot, but I love him nonetheless! Although I feel like canon doesn't do much with his character and he's just used as a way to make other characters have development. (Ex: Riddle in ch.1 deuce in ch.5 the fairy gala remix in his card story) But all in all I think I love him because he's the opposite of me. (I can't speak up for myself...)

Trey: Like Ace, canon doesn't do much with his character and fandom doesn't really do anything with him besides using him as a way for cater angst? (No hate to Cater stans of course) so a lot of his character is my speculation. (He is not a normal guy he is lying to himself.) I love how I can pick apart his character without canon coming in and crushing my dreams. (I project onto him frequently.)

Leona: Oh boy. Here we go. God I love Leona so much. Obviously, he's a depressed bitch and neither canon nor fandom properly recognizes it he also has some serious trauma. (knowing you could be better but, why try? Your goal is impossible anyways.) Also, (as far as I know) he's the only Overblot victim who didn't properly redeem himself. (Ripping up Azul's contracts out of selfish desires is not redemption.) So that's canon mischaracterizing their own character and the fandom, is the fandom. Overall Leona is mischaracterized way too much and I kin him. (That's the reason I love him. I kin him.)

Azul: Azul is literally my baby. I love him because I just wanna give him a hug. The way his ED is implied a few times and then never brought up again is really annoying to me like- if you're gonna give ED rep at least mention in more than his chapter! It's a key part of his character and it's barely there. Oh also he was bullied and I relate to that.

Jamil: The vibes. Gender Envy. The pyromania. The way he hates Kalim even though it's not his fault because he needs someone to be angry at and it's so easy to hate the person directly causing your problems rather than blaming the system behind them. Oh also he's brown and I'm brown so it's like-

Vil: VILLL MY BEAUTIFUL QUEEN. Gender. Envy. The things I could do if I was him- she's so- can you imagine if I was amab? I could be feminine and still not be seen as a girl. Anyways the way he's always second place but doesn't blame the person who's above him but rather blames himself is so sad but so me.

Idia: his gamer talk is so funny sometimes. Oh also I wish I had an older brother like him. Oh also I haven't finished ch.6 but I'm really excited. Oh also technological characters always have a special place in my heart. oh also he's depressed and I find that relatable.

Sebek: I love him. He's so loud and so rude (humans) but I love him he's such a dork. He's trying his best okay? Id really love to see his character when it's not revolving around Malleus though.

Authors Note: tldr: angst, badassery, gender envy, character studys and more not necessarily in that order.

[ashipiko]

If you’re still doing the OC questions thing, may I ask for 6, 12, 18 with Ashi?

THANK YOU LILLYYY 🫶 v happy to see you in my inbox!!!

LIST

6. What is their worst class?

ANYTHING HISTORY RELATED. my girl can’t DO IT she could barely do history in her home world AND NOW IN THIS RANDOM WORLD????? PLEASE. SHE CANNOT. she just doodles in that class NGL 😔 trying her best to rmb but she just can’t………

12. What is your OC’s favorite event(s), what was their role?

you’re BLESSING ME WITH THIS ONE.

ASHI. GHOST MARRIAGE. HER EVENT.

😭😭 this event is just known as MY event w my friends because when it first came out like. in JP I was FREAKING OUT OVER ACE and it’s forev my fave Acey card…. SO OF COURSE ASHI PLAYS A MAJOR PART IN IT!!! FOR THOSE WHO ARE NOT AWARE. ghost marriage w ashi is a slightly altered SLIGHTLY rewritten event where ashi channels her rizz and woos Eliza!!! it’s fun and chaotic AND CONTENT FOR IT CAN BE FOUND HERE AND HERE

THE EVENT IS BASICALLY THE SAME just that after the second group goes in and gets slapped, ashi’s watching and is like “damn fam… yall’s rizz is Hella Bad” and she ends up going to sam’s, buying a suit, taking the ring and making her way to woo eliza herself. AND IT WORKS? BECAUSE ASHI IS JUST REALLY GOOD W WOMEN??? DESPITE BEING STRAIGHT?????? IT’S A CURSE like actually FR. ANYWAY it works and Ashi even puts the ring on her finger but nothin works?? BECAUSE OF ACE. BECAUSE THE TWO OF EM WERE MESSING AROUND W THE FAKE AND REAL RING AND ASHI TOOK THE WRONG ONE BY ACCIDENT. so due to peer pressure and being blamed ace is all “JEEZ FINE ILL SAVE HER” and that’s when the actual groom team goes in!!

IF YOU’RE WONDERING ABOUT IDIA……. nobody cares about him 😔 they all end up going “why did it have to be ashi? couldn’t idia still be there instead?” AND HE’S LIKE “WHY DO YOU GUYS ALL HATE ME……” and it’s really funny 🫶 ashi is scared for her LIFE because she’s terrified of ghosts and also her hopeless romantic is CRYING BECAUSE “I DID NOT WANT TO END UP MARRYING A WOMAN BEFORE I DIED THIS JS NOT ROMANTIC SAVE ME”

ITS A REALLY CHAOTIC EVENT but it also plants the seeds for ashace 🫶 it’s just a fun rewrite for my fave event and I think it’s fun!!! plus afterwards when she hangs out w the first years she talks about her hopeless romanticness and her type….. considered writing a fic for it 🤔

18. What is the hardest thing to adjust to at NRC? The magic? Being away from their family? Ect.

I THINK IT’S A FOOD AND FAMILY SITUATION. ashi whines SOOO much about missing food and even going to scarabia to eat w kalim doesn’t heal the wound…… she just wants some good food from her mom!!!! 😔 she misses her family a lot and gets really homesick. on top of that she also has the worry about what’s happening at home and if anyone misses her and how her family is doing and YADAYDAYADA!!! HAVING TO PROVIDE FOR HERSELF TOO…. she’s too used to being pampered but it was def hardest for her in the beginning having to move into ramshackle and provide for herself at first w/o anyone’s help……..

[maythearo]

I think Jamil doesn't need a real "Uncle Ben" figure to teach him "great powers, great responsibilities" since he's pretty responsible. Like, he takes care of Kalim his entire life and all. And Gwen didn't lose her uncle or aunt, she lost her best friend.

But at the same time, even he hates Kalim, if he lost him, that still counts a cannon event(?).

Before Uncle Ben's death in Tobey Maguire's movie, he said "I miss the part where that's my problem". Think about it: Jamil finally gets a chance to be himself, be free. Without worries, without responsibilities. While he's using a mask, no person would find out and co relation his behavior with the Asim family. With that said, he isn't a hero yet. He just a random guy using a suit like someone in comic-con. But he forgerts about time itself. And I didn't thought about it too much, but he saw someone sus and don't do a single thing. Hes not a hero, the only person he needs to protect is Kalim. Turns out that single "Idc" leads to Kalim's death. So he takes the path, like in the beginning of Tobey's and Andrew's movie where they search for the killer.

I had more things to say, but I totally forgot about it.

The BR Jamil Simp Anon

Jamil's the most responsible spider-man in the multiverse fr

Losing Kalim could count as a canon event now that I think about it 🤔 a canon event of this type, from my understanding could either be the loss of a mentor (not specifically uncle Ben, Tom Holland's spider-man lost aunt May) OR of a best friend (like Spider-Gwen when she lost Peter, or when in Andrew Garfield's role he lost Gwen. In Tom Holland's universe he was supposed to lose MJ too, but Andrew saved her last minute since he's an anomaly in that movie and interfered with the event just like Miles did with Pavitr's universe when he saved the police chief)! Jamil may not consider Kalim as the dearest friend or anything like that, HOWEVER Kalim does consider Jamil to be his best friend... so... in a weird way that could count as a canon event, I think? An unexpected one, but still! NOOO MY SUNSHINE BOY

I still have to rewatch the old movies to remember the major stuff that happened, but how could I forget about the "I missed the part where that's my problem"? THERE'S SO MUCH TRAGEDY!! Jamil took the opportunity to be free at least while he's spider-man... but turns out, responsabilities follow him around no matter where he goes, or who he tries to be.

As for the other movie sequels, all I recall from them is that at least in Tobey's story, there's a brief period of time he gives up being spider-man? Or maybe I'm remembering the order of facts wrong, and he only stopped the super hero duty because his powers weren't working anymore? (Correct me if I'm wrong though). But regardless, what came to mind here was the question of what if Jamil gave up on that too? Just as a second possibility, like, "if he can't even be free as that alter-ego then what's the point"? I'm screaming and crying, why do all paths of this au lead to pain end suffering??? To my favorite guy no less?????? 😫😫😫

And for the last point, I guess so! It's just that whenever I think about twst's universe I tend to imagine the majority of people there use/are used to seeing magic in their day to day lives, while in marvel's universe science and technology are more prominent than magic itself. Idk how to explain it, but I feel like magic usage has a bigger "weight" in stories than science does? (Depending on how the story plays with it of course) So in a world where magic is more prominent than science, it kinda feels a bit unbalanced in terms of how the characters' powers play out. Like why use science if magic can do these same things with much more ease? Even if it's just to cut some corners, at least to my view it feels a little out of place. But that's just me really!!

[snek-disappearedagain]

He dislikes/isn’t friends with a lot of people-

Oc is Sol! He’s in Ignihyde dorm and is a first year ^^

Further explanation under the cut!

Riddle: “I respect his control over Heartslabyul, although I do not want him to come near me.”

Ace: “Annoying, very annoying, but too funny to hate.”

Deuce: “I hope he continues trying his best in things, it’s also funny watching him struggle at simple things.”

Cater: “Phone obsessed annoyance in my life, he won’t leave me alone for some reason.”

Trey: “He doesn’t belong here, it seems. Nothing special about him, average personality. He sticks out like a sore thumb.”

Leona: “He runs his dorm very well, and we talk on occasion. I’d like to think he almost respects me- Although I doubt it.”

Jack: “I’m very glad I met him, although he’s a little too nice sometimes. There’s nothing wrong with that of course, I just can’t relate.”

Ruggie: “That little thief.. It’s like he enjoys stealing from me. It’s always my favorite foods too..”

Azul: “He’s very smart, and part of me wants to look up to him. The other part wants to kick him in the shins.”

Floyd: “This man.. If he so much cones near me I’m booking it. Everywhere he goes chaos follows..”

Jade: “At first he seems nice, but then you discover he’s more dangerous than his twin. He once tried to feed me mushrooms, I swiftly ran away.”

Kalim: “He’s loud, annoying, and thinks everyone is his friend. It’s safe to say I will never go to one of his parties.”

Jamil: “Oh how I feel bad for him, he’s so much better than Kalim at pretty much everything and yet he doesn’t get any credit for his skills.”

Vil: “He once complimented me and we haven’t spoke since, that day was a great day.”

Epel: “I love it when he just goes feral, we often hang out along with Jack. He is by far the funniest person I know.”

Rook: “If he tries to touch me one more time I’ll stab him in the throat, stalker..”

Idia: “I hardly see my housewarden, but when I do we usually talk. When I told him I’ve becer played a video game before he took me to his room and we played this one game for hours.”

Ortho: “If anyone lays a hand on him I’m stabbing them in the throat.”

Malleus: “He’s intimidating, and honestly quite scary. But, he doesn’t seem very mean at all.”

Lilia: “IF HE POPS UP BEHIND ME ONE MORE TIME-“

Silver: “I love how chill he is, a very nice guy to talk to. He surprisingly has stellar advice.”

Sebek: “Actually shut the hell up.”

Oriens (oc): Dislikes - “Wherever he is, Floyd’s there too..”

For the character ask meme: Claude (Fire Emblem Three Houses), Swindler (Akudama Drive), and Kalim (Twisted Wonderland)💜

(From this ask meme HERE)

Thanks for the ask, friend!!! You picked such fantastic characters and I am excited to answer this!

The prompt to all of these is: "send me a character name and I'll tell you three things I have in common with them and three things I don't".

Rest is under the cut because this is long.

Claude (Fire Emblem Three Houses)

Three things I have in common:

-Claude's entire philosophy of "I just want to break the barriers between us and create a nation where we can accept people for their differences" resonates with me deeply. I love that Claude's entire goal is to bring acceptance and ending racism and prejudice in the world. It is a goal I believe in with all my heart too.

-Like Claude I am a bi-racial child and have experienced what it is like to grow up "not quite" Chinese. I've had people look and not see my Chinese side or treat me like I haven't grown up immersed in Chinese culture since day one. I've had people "impressed" that I can use chopsticks when I learned how to use them properly when I was eight or nine. It's a subtle form of racism, denying an entire part of who I am just because people have decided I'm not "enough".

-I also am someone who tends to sit back and watch how things unfold before making a decision or a move.

Three things we do not have in common:

-As said above, while I tend to wait and see before making a decision, I am no where close to Claude's brilliant tactical mind. I'm not one for complex strategies or planning too far in advance.

-Claude tends to ruffle feathers and tease people frequently. His idea of "having fun" can range from pulling harmless pranks, to pissing people off and waiting to see how they try to "get even" with him. Sine he's always three steps ahead this is fine. I on the other hand have no desire to prank anyone or upset people.

-In the end, Claude can make tough choices and execute a plan without wavering. I can be very indecisive and fret over how my choices impact others. While I think this trait of Claude's is seen more in Three Hopes, it is still a trait present in 3H, so I included it here.

Swindler (Akudama Drive)

Three things we have in common:

-I tend to attract people that "make me slightly uncomfortable because they cannot take a hint and leave me alone" every now and then? Just by being kind and then realizing someone has no idea that "kindness" doesn't always equate to "I want to be friends". Of course, the people that I've attracted aren't anywhere close to Cutthroat, but hey, I understand the discomfort, Swindler. I'm here for you.

-While I think this is sort of cheating since the point of Swindler is to be "ordinary", I really relate to her brand of ordinary. Unlike Makoto who is supposed to represent the "every person", Swindler in my mind represents the person who is comfortable with routine. Swindler's life before meeting the Akudama cast was "go to work, make dinner, go home, sleep, repeat".

-Swindler's overall compassion and kindness through the series is also something I relate to, particularly with Brother and Sister. She sees people who are young, vulnerable, and wishes to help them because "it's the right thing to do".

Three things we don't have in common:

-Swindler's overall resolve through the series is something I don't think I could have. I don't think I could have gone through half of her experiences before breaking down, crying, and giving up.

-When Swindler stood up to Doctor... I definitely do not have that sort of courage. I hate confrontation and coupled with Doctor being extremely deadly... I could not do that.

-This is very specific but the entire scene with her trying to get away from and kill Cutthroat? Oh boy, I don't know if I could have done that.

Kalim (Twisted Wonderland)

Three things we have in common:

-Kalim's sweet, but naïve personality is something I think we have in common. I generally see the best in people and that fuels my interactions with others. Perhaps that's not always good though, as sometimes I miss people's feelings by being naïve because somewhere the line between naïve and ignorant can blur.

-Kalim likes buying his friends gifts and I do too! Sometimes I'm out shopping and I see something and think of a family or a friend. I end up buying the item and gifting it to them. Of course, I don't have the money Kalim has, but the thought is what counts!

-Overall I think one of Kalim's goals in life is to get along with others and that's my life goal too! I want to be friendly and kind! I want people to feel welcomed and not worry when talking to me.

Three things we do not have in common:

-Kalim, due to his upbringing, never had to think of his requests are burdening other people. That's just how things work when he's surrounded by people on his father's payroll and it's their job to be nice to him. For myself, especially after growing up and becoming an adult, every time someone helps me with something I am grateful because I realize they took time out of their day to help me.

-Superficial, but Kalim is a great at dancing and singing. While I'm okay at dancing (I like ballroom dancing), singing is something I'm not very good at.

-Kalim and Jamil, post Book 4, have a strained relationship because the rose tinted glasses are off and Jamil has revealed his true thoughts about Kalim. I would never, ever be able to be near someone if I knew I'd hurt them like that. I'd probably want to disappear and this means both Kalim and Jamil are both stronger than I'll ever be ahaha...

[thattallpan]

BRAINROT HOURS BECAUSE IT DOES NOT WANT ME TO SLEEP

So if we have Angeline and Grell for Riddle and Idia, we definitely have Agni and Soma for the Scarabia duo! More word vomit:

So both boys are related, but in a distant way; Soma is Kalim's prolly 3rd or 4th cousin on his mother's side (since Kalim is already someone with enough wealth and prestige to be mistaken as royalty, let's solidfy that in this au) while Agni was taken in by either a family member of Jamil's, or by Jamil's himself.

Soma is in his pre-teens while Agni is around his 20s in this while I headcannon that there's a 5-6 yr age gap between Soma and Kalim.

Kalim and Soma have sunshine personalities, everyone either has to wear eye protection around them or pray to whatever deity that they do not go blind. 🌞🌞🌞

THERE WILL ALWAYS BE A PARTY WHENEVER THESE TWO ARE TOGETHER someone help Jamil so he doesn't pop a vein

THEY WILL TEAR DOWN THE DANCE FLOOR. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DANCE WITH EITHER/BOTH OF THEM BECAUSE YOU WILL NO LONGER FEEL YOUR LEGS AFTER THE DANCE. 🕺💃🕺💃

They will ALWAYS exchange stories; about family, Soma's travels, Kalim's antics in NRC. Just overall hanging-out-with-your-favorite-cousin vibes. ❤️💛

Kalim looks up to his older cousin and tries to be like him, maybe even got his sunshine personality from Soma too.

I feel bad for Jamil seeing as he will basically handle another version of Kalim, though Soma will definitely be a bit more mature than Kalim and will heed Jamil's requests better.

Agni adores the interaction between Soma and Kalim. You will always see him walking with Jamil with a smild on his face, much to Jamil's chagrin.

Jamil was definitely the more senior between them in terms of servitude and I headcannon that Agni learnt most of his skills from him.

IMAGINE A YOUNG ADULT TAKING COOKING LESSONS FROM A CHILD

These two definitely catch up on stuff during meal prep and cooking. Agni asks about Jamil's school life and Jamil subtly asks him about his travels.

Agni knows that Jamil wants to travel and escapr Kalim's shadow, so he recalls his experiences in detail just so Jamil can have a vivid image of it.

Agni has definitely felt the turmoil Jamil has with Kalim, and he does give his well-meaning advice, but the reason of their servitude is different so it sometimes does not go the way it should. Though Jamil does heed it every now and then, wc adds to Jamil's complicated feelings abt Kalim.

Agni is the only one Jamil actually shows off his skills to; you'll see them play together and it's one of those rare situations where Jamil isn't holding back. He greatly respects Agni and even thinks of him as a friend.

SPOILERS!! STOP HERE IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE SPOILED IN THE MANGA though I doubt that no one knows this already

Jamil was crushed when he heard of Agni's death. He was torn on how to feel about it really. He hated that his adopted cousin died as a servant, but he knew that Agni died with a smile on his face with how much he revered Soma.

This is also part of the reason why Jamil is torn about Soma; he hated that a great man had to die at the expense of someone he served, furthering his hate for the unfairness of their social classes, but he also saw how Soma lost his smile since his death, and understood that Agni was more than just a servant in Soma's life.

Agni died before Jamil's OB, so I hc that Agni's death was also one of Jamil's repressed negative emotions; how he regrets not being more forward and open to the one person who didn't judge him and how the social class determined who was best suited to live at that time.

Kalim saw the clouds in his cousin's eyes and comforted him. This was one of those moments where Kalim's empathy does its magic and where his sunshine wasn't blinding, but comfortingly warm. There were waterworks that day, of comfort and of guilt.

FUN FACT: Riddle and Agni share the same birthday, so after greeting Riddle, Jamil will always put aside food for Agni and would sometimes 'talk' to him.

He thinks that nobody knows, but Kalim totally sees this and purposefully doesn't let Jamil do too much work.

There's definitely more but my brain is too scrambled to write them all down. So here's all for now!

Also, I keep thinking of Madame Red being Riddle's mom in the au:

Like, there is an accident and she loses the first baby, but not the womb, so she's able to get pregnant again. So now, pregnant with her second child, she swears she's gonna take good care of her new baby with all her heart.

Riddle's dad is her second husband, the first one dying at the accident that took her first baby. She gets the surname Rosehearts from him. He's absent most of the time, though. She's not particularly bitter about it cuz she focused all her attention on Riddle (and her last two romances ended in heartbreak, with one being unrequited and the other dying)

All that untouched trauma ends with her being overbearing in her quest to raise her child "properly". She means well and loves him dearly, but... Yeah. She's not doing so well.

Also, reminder that in this au, Riddle and Ciel (and that zombie bitch) are the same age because I absolutely need school shenanigans. Which means that it's absolutely plausible for her to unconsciously compare Riddle to the twins. Because I like the drama.

👻 My thoughts on Book 4 of “A Twisted Halloween: Terror is Trending” 🎃

Spoilers ahead!

Note from Strawbetty: I have so many favorite screenshots from Book 4 of this event (especially from the Diasomnia chapter)

🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃

Screenshot from Twisted Wonderland’s “A Twisted Halloween: Terror is Trending” Event

🗒 Ace and Deuce bicker like brothers LOL

🗒 HAHA moments like these make me wish the Halloween event was animated into like short episodes

🗒 Also a very late remark but the event background music SLAPS!! It’s so good

Screenshot from Twisted Wonderland’s “A Twisted Halloween: Terror is Trending” Event

🗒 I had to Google impalas and they are “medium-size antelopes found in Eastern and Southern Africa” according to Google

🗒 Jack truly has all the qualities to be the next dorm leader of Savanaclaw some day!!

🗒 It sounds like Leona had fun scaring away the Magicam Monsters through Jack’s plan, and I loved how Leona used his Unique Magic to turn the pirate props into sand to scare them away + Ruggie using his own Unique Magic to make the Magicam Monsters not able to move

🗒 I also like that instead of being prideful and trying to lead a plan, Leona followed through Jack’s plan like a team player + he gave credit and props to Jack by saying “That was a decent display, Jack.”

🗒 It’s not the best compliment but also notice how Leona doesn’t judge Jack or dismiss his ideas just because Jack is a freshman

Screenshot from Twisted Wonderland’s “A Twisted Halloween: Terror is Trending” Event

🗒 THE SPOTLIGHT AND AZUL’S POSE DHEJBDDOWSBSOA

🗒 They’re making this a show, I love it

🗒 Magicam Monsters, those poor, unfortunate souls

🗒 HEHE ALSO JADE AND AZUL JUSTIFYING SCARING THE MAGICAM MONSTERS AS BEING BENEVOLENT

🗒 Benevolent indeed

Screenshot from Twisted Wonderland’s “A Twisted Halloween: Terror is Trending” Event

🗒 AWWW KALIM

🗒 I love that Kalim went the extra mile by asking Rook for pointers on animal behavior

🗒 This part really highlighted Kalim’s resourcefulness and how he thinks a lot about Scarabia and NRC

Screenshot from Twisted Wonderland’s “A Twisted Halloween: Terror is Trending” Event

🗒 We get a bit of background from Vil; how he hates people taking his picture without his permission even if he is a public figure

🗒 In a way this entire Halloween event has highlighted our generation in relation to social media and social clout today in real life and it kinda feels…educational???

🗒 Moral of the story: don’t litter, invade private spaces, break things, or be noisy or rowdy just for clout, kids

🗒 I wonder what the Dark Mirror was doing the entire time Pomefiore had their skit LOL

Screenshot from Twisted Wonderland’s “A Twisted Halloween: Terror is Trending” Event

🗒 PFFT IDIAAAAAAAA

🗒 The way he says this as himself and not as a line from his favorite Halloween movie

🗒 Also Ortho getting a kick out of scaring away the Magicam Monsters is adorable and frightening all at the same time

🗒 Idia reminds me of Kristoff from Frozen (“reindeers are better than people”). But instead for reindeer, it’s games and movies and stuff for Idia

Screenshot from Twisted Wonderland’s “A Twisted Halloween: Terror is Trending” Event

🗒 PEEPAW PFFFT

🗒 I have so many favorite moments from the Diasomnia chapter in this event’s Book 4 omg

🗒 Lilia loves kids and he loves scaring them lol

🗒 Just imagine like a younger Silver and Sebek back then during Halloween where they thought they heard a monster but it was actually Lilia playing tricks on them

🗒 Like Malleus would say, “My, you sure get a rise out of scaring Silver and Sebek every year, Lilia.” And Lilia’s like, “Fufu, whatever are you talking about?”

Screenshot from Twisted Wonderland’s “A Twisted Halloween: Terror is Trending” Event

🗒 This line gave HEAVY Maleficent vibes

🗒 I bet when Silver was a little kid, Malleus would play around with him by taking away his Halloween candy to see his reaction, only to chuckle when Silver would cry and Malleus would give it right back

Screenshot from Twisted Wonderland’s “A Twisted Halloween: Terror is Trending” Event

🗒 AWW PEEPAW’S SONS

Screenshot from Twisted Wonderland’s “A Twisted Halloween: Terror is Trending” Event

🗒 He really would though

🗒 Sebek is Malleus’s #1 fan, and will literally fight anyone for that title

🗒 Also I love how Lilia fixed Malleus’s hat because it was lopsided, and Malleus said, “I’m no longer a child, Lilia” while frowning and pouting a bit

🗒 In Lilia’s eyes, Malleus is still a precious kid 😭🤧

👻 Notes on Book 5 here!

🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃

[honey-milk-depresso]

Hey!

If you’re still taking requests, may I ask for a Venti darling with Scarabia and anyone else you like!

(Love my wind gremlin (Ｔ▽Ｔ))

Yep I love Venti oh my god- He's so beautiful and his voice JJDBHDHDHDH- But obviously I still love Geo Daddy and Lil miss Ganyu as my number ones-

And instead of a lyre, how about a guitar in replacement? Also added in Floyd.

Hope you enjoy! ^^

Recalcitrant, carefree, and playful, you're a free-spirited individual who is bold, and doesn't care about insults thrown at you, and ignore those of higher authority.

You love roaming, and spreading about joy with your acoustic music, having a genuine, lighthearted smile to liven up the mood.

But even as playful as you are, you're someone down to earth; philosophical, wise.... solemn. Deep down, you're a lonely soul.. Perhaps NRC can tune a note to your heart?

TWST The Carefree yet lonely guitar player, s/o (Venti)

Kalim al Asim

Kalim is fond of you're cheery attitude!

He especially loves listening to the sound of you strumming your acoustic guitar, as you pluck at its strings, letting your voice flow smoothly like a calm river.

To him, you seem like a cheery, optimistic and fearless, and he aspires to be like you!

You're just someone who can stand up for yourself, and he wants to be somewhat independent like how you are, too!

You just seem to make the atmosphere more lively!

It doesn't matter who hates you, you still continue to play your guitar, and spread around happiness to those feeling down in the dumps.

That's very sweet of you!

But when he learns more about you, he feels so sorry you feel lonely, and that your friends in your world have left you one by one.

No one deserves to be alone! Especially you! Someone who has always been there for others and spread about their music to those who feel sad and lonely.

He spoils you with love, care and company, and he exclaims how sorry he is for you.

You told him very fondly and gratefully with a soft yet solemn expression,

"Well, I might say I've gotten over it, but I guess avoiding the feeling would only make it find you easier. The feeling of loneliness is inevitable. And it's not just the feeling when no one's there to be here with me at times. But... the feeling that no one wants you around..."

You sadly smiled at him, with an expression of genuine gratitude. "But.. thank you, Kalim. I thank you for being here for me!" you giggled.

Kalim could only pull you into a hug, telling you he's happy he's you're here for him too <3

Jamil Viper

At first, Jamil is quite irked with how annoying you can be.

With your cheery, bold and carefree attitude drives him nuts.

You're like Kalim but with attitude-

It's worse-

Dear sevens-

And you constantly annoy and tease him by playing on your guitar at times.

"DID THE LIGHTS JUST WENT OUT-"

*you come in and strum your guitar* "When your lights don't work like they used to before!~"

"OH STFU-"

Yeah-

But Jamil wasn't going to lie; you can make him crack up a lot. You're just so fun to be with as much as chaotic, and he won't admit it, but life couldn't have been more fun with you.

You played a song on your guitar, strumming and plucking at its string as it released an upbeat acoustic version of dancing music, as you invite him to dance along to the rhythm.

He had fun, and he felt a lot calmer and much happier after a tired day of doing his vice dorm leader duties.

He can't help but smile.

So it surprised him when he found out how lonely you felt.

For someone who has been playful, rebellious and annoyingly cheerful and cheeky.. he didn't expect you to feel so... sad. But I guess people wear masks to cover their true emotions, huh? He can relate with that.

He starts understanding you a bit more, and realize that you have always went all out to make people smile and he tries his best too in his own way. With his cooking, dancing or company, he sticks with you.

"Heh.. Thanks for being with me, Jamil. I don't look like I'm who I am. But, I guess I feel bummed out by how my friends left me. Whether because they didn't found interest in me or they.. well.. left off to a better place.. But when I look back, all of the people that have left me are like a reflection of who I am. The type of friends you make reflect who you are as a person. I'm glad you guys have shown me that I'm not as bad as I see myself, of course, I'm better~" you teased him at the very last part, as you winked with your tongue sticking out at the corner of your lips.

Your words... are very wise. He could only look at his hands, before placing one over to cover both your hands.

"I'm glad to have you too, s/o."

Floyd Leech

Floyd finds you fun!

Maybe it's because you get him.

Of all people, you're philosophical mind masked by your humor is relatable to him. His way of thinking is different and unique than most others, and someone like you really digs it.

"Yeah, cheesecake is just cheese on the birthday cake! Wanna do that to Azul?"

And apart from that, you have been his favorite prank buddy.

You're incredible for that, and he cracks up so much when you just talk to him. You're naturally funny and hilarious to him, and you've never failed to make Floyd's day.

His mood swings do get the best of the eel, sometimes he feels sulky, angry or sad because of his peers nagging and what not, and he just doesn't feel like talking to you.

You play for him a soothing tune on your guitar, carefully plucking at it's strings like porcelain, as you strum and hum with a soft and gentle tone.

He's much more relaxed, and he sometimes would fall asleep on your lap, dreaming about you playing a never ending tune for him in the sea if that could ever happen.

He's much happier with you, so he doesn't get it when you told him one day you feel sad.

Why is shrimpy sad? He's confused.

When you told him about your sudden episodes of feeling lonely, he's suddenly curious. he gets mood swings.. but feeling.. lonely?

"I'm not saying I don't enjoy your company, trust me when I say I do. But... when I look back to the past.. I can't help but miss my friends. The ones who find no use in me no longer and the ones that went to a better place... I miss them all. You.. have always made my day less stormy and much sunnier. I can't thank you enough, Floyd. All my loneliness.. just shows me how desperate I am in need of myself. I'm sure you must have felt so lonely before to think no one's around to think about you.. But, that's where I'm so thankful to meet you."

Floyd could only stare you with wide eyes. He.. doesn't know how to feel, but immediately pull you into his embrace.

"I've never felt lonely when I met you, shrimpy.." <3

[blackrabbittwst]

I really thought Chapter 5 part 2 really emphasized on some good lessons to consider reflecting on.

Spoilers for Chapter 5 Part 2!

Also I’m sorry for the lack of posting, I’ve been busy with life and unmotivated lately. I’ll try to get some stuff out soon 😣

This scene really hit me hard on approaching your weakness and turning them into strengths. The metaphor really brought it home for me and I thought it was rather deep and insightful (also coming from our sunshine baby Kalim? It’s so great!). I find this lesson really important that everyone should consider and reflect on in their daily lives.

Everyone has things they struggle with in their lives but how we handle it really changes how we live with ourselves and experience life. While it’s hard to change your thinking to adapt yourself to suit your own inner strength, it does change how you enjoy life. Life is short, you know? We gotta make the best of it when we can instead of focusing on things we hate (which is hard, trust me).

I just wanted to touch on this and tell other people because it was something I find very relatable that I’ve had to discover myself with some personal traits I thought as a weakness all throughout my life. I hated this part of myself so much but for the past few years, I’ve been leaning how this trait can now become something very important to me. I just wanted to highlight this to other people and let everyone know that even if you think something about yourself is a weakness, you can always see it from another angle and approach it from a healthier side. It’s very hard, but it’s possible to see after experience more of life. I hope everyone can get to a point where they can look past their weakness and embrace themselves for who they are.

I didn’t want to make this post about me as much but if you want my example of how I’ve also used this lesson myself, it’s below:

I’ve always been told I’m sensitive. I’m easy to cry or get upset easily at things. I am a big cry baby. From how I handle stress, anger, sadness, basically anything overwhelming, I cry. I even cry at basically most movies that get sad at some point. I hate crying, even to this day, because of how it makes me feel. I’ve been told that I’m too sensitive when I got upset at something (granted it was important to me, so it’s not like I was over reacting). However, this sensitive nature also fuels my empathy. I’ve always been a very empathetic person who can put myself in other’s shoes (to the point of crying at Doctor Strange 2 🙃). Over the past few years, I’ve realized this empathy has made my friendships stronger. I can empathize and connect with friends when they have struggles or issues. I’ve been able to be a reliable person who will understand or at least get a good idea of what others are going through. I’ve realized being empathic is a double edge sword sadly. I get hurt so much easier by being open and easily trusting but at the same time I am able to foster my friendships by being genuine and understanding to the point where I’ve made so many friends who love me for who I am. I still of course struggle with my sensitivity, but I’ve been slowly leaning that it isn’t all necessarily bad to be a cry baby. Sometimes… it’s relieving for someone to cry over your problems for you, I’ve found out.

[fu-aki]

Chapter 5

So this is going to be my attempt to summarize part 1 of the beginning part of chapter 5 (episode 1 to 21) of twisted wonderland.

Again, spoiler alert since I’m about to write out everything that happened, and I apologize for my grammar and horrible French in advance.

 You heard someone singing -> it was the scenes from snow white when the evil queen asks the mirror on the wall and snow white singing into the well  -> player choice: a beautiful women was watching from the window…/ I felt like I’ve meet that beautiful person before… -> you woke up from dream -> in the main street, you meet up with Ace and Deuce -> after seeing the statue you realized you’ve seen them in your dreams before

In classroom -> Ace felt it wasn’t weird to have dreams like that when you see those statues everyday -> you mentioned about in your dream “mickey” appeared in the mirror -> Ace and Deuce never heard of that name before -> Ace suggest to take a photo of it with the “ghost camera” you got from Crowley since it can even take pictures of ghosts

Crewel showed up and explained about “nationwide sorcerer training school culture festival” -> it’s a 2 day event with representative students from all the sorcerer training school, a festival with speeches and debates all about magic related music & art topics -> for NRC, all the 4th year students will be send all across country for internship and research study -> they will all come back on that day to share their experience and result -> end of the homeroom -> fight Crewel for the defense magic class

In the dorm leader meeting -> Malleus is not there again -> Lilia mentions how he couldn’t find Malleus anymore after class so he’s here instead -> Idia questions if Malleus is missing meetings on purpose -> Lilia talked about how fairies feels time different from humans, and how Malleus have some troublesome karma on him as well

The meeting starts -> Riddle started reporting everything about the event -> but the “vocal & dance championship” has surprising amount of media focused on it -> Riddle was surprised since he thought it was just a chorus competition -> because of the time change and consideration for different types of music, now it includes singing, dancing, and performance -> and because of how popular it got, it becomes one chance for students to professionally debut -> and now it’s getting extra notice because the famous influencer Vil and Neige are in it -> Lilia commented how Neige is getting really popular online and on TV -> Idia surprised that people in Diasomnia actually go online -> Lilia “kuhuhu, of course, we are still just students in high school, we watch dramas and play games.” -> Crowley “Vila and Neige, 2 world known famous celebrity are going to appear in VDC, it won’t be an exaggeration to call it the highest degree of attention we are going to get in this event.” -> Crowley ask Riddle to make preparation in case of troubles -> Azul offered to help since he learned all about it from magic shift event -> Leona “hey octopus bastard… do you want your flappy tongue to turn into dried food or what?” -> Azul “oh my how scary” -> Riddle refused Azul’s help since he don’t want Azul ask for something later -> Kalim “just tell us if something is bothering you, we’ll help you anytime.”

-> Kalim “I can’t wait for the day of festival~!” ->  Idia “sign~~~… the popular guys just looks so happy everyday. I had to think about the day to announce our research result… if I just step on stage, everyone would be like ‘hey isn’t his hair burning?’ ‘could he be Shroud family’s…’ ‘what kind of dark research is he doing?’ aah I can’t… for person like me to do a speech on stage is just challenge level EX.” -> Riddle mentioned how the rules said student have to go on stage themselves and offer to train Idia for speech after school -> Idia said he’ll manage something himself (whispering) “I really don’t wanna have a farming event with demonic trainer Riddle.” -> end of meeting

In Vil’s room -> Vil “Mira, Mira” -> Mira “what can I help you with?” -> Vil “who is the fairest of them all right now?” -> Mira “the account with the most mention of fair in web currently is… Neige.” -> Vil “Neige…! Finally… this time have arrived.” -> Mira “sorry, I couldn’t quite hear you. Could you please repeat what you said?”

Few days later in cafeteria -> Ace, Deuce, Grim, and you saw the poster for the VDC audition -> the reward for wining the championship is 5 million Madollar to spilt among the members -> Crowley popped up and explained many corporation sponsored this event -> Grim wanted to join for the money so he can buy tuna cans

The song for audition is “piece of my world” -> Ace wanted to try so if he got accepted he don’t need to help set up the places anymore -> Deuce wanted the reward money to help his family -> but he never did singing or dancing before so he didn’t want to join ->

In courtyard you heard someone singing beautifully -> you saw Epel ->Deuce remembered the time he bumped into Epel last chapter -> He asked Epel why is he practice singing here -> it was because Vil told Epel to practice singing to the well so Epel can hear his voice clearly -> Deuce “does Pomefiore have some rules where you have to be good at singing?” -> it was because Epel has to take the audition for VDC and practice for a more lovely voice -> Epel (whisper) “event like that should just disappear…” -> “oh my Epel, are you skipping practice and talking with pigeons now?” -> it was Vil -> Grim “that guy’s leg looks like it’s 1 meter longer than MC’s!” -> Vil “there’s only 2 month left till VDC, Epel have no times play with muddy potatoes like you people.” -> “Epel, you too, if this keep going on you won’t be able to become the ‘red poisoned apple’ let’s go.” -> Epel “…But I actully don’t!” -> Vil “did you forgot the promise with me? Just come here already.” -> Ace and Grim was pretty mad and wanted to fight -> Vil “It’s not bad for a walk after meal. Come at me, I’ll make you into mashed potato.” -> fight time -> you are beat up by Vil -> and he only gives you 5/100 for the fight since you lacked the beauty when fighting -> Epel has to go back with Vil and Vil mentioned how it ends up like this because Epel skipped practice in break

The next day -> Deuce decided to try the audition -> so if they are accepted, Epel might got eliminated and don’t need to practice anymore -> Deuce “as a honor student, I can’t just watch him being forced into the things he don’t like.” -> Ace “I don’t think it’s very honor student of you to call yourself honor student.” -> dance practice time

Kalim and Jamil showed up practice for audition too -> Kalim “honestly you guys are pretty bad at this, you look like a panicked elephant trying to stand on 2 legs! Ahhaha!” -> Deuce “man this really hurts when he’s not even try to be mean.” -> Ace asked Jamil to teach them how to dance -> Kalim “oh sure! Jamil is really good at singing.” -> Jamil “why are you replying for me! … well it is also review for me when I’m teaching someone, fine I’ll do it.” -> teaching time -> Kalim “hey, how about we practice together tomorrow too? Jamil is really good at singing, we’ll show you.” -> Jamil “! You just decided that yourself too…!” -> Kalim “it’ll be fine, besides isn’t it more fun when you have more people for dancing, singing, or partying?” -> Jamil “fine, just don’t expect me to be so kind.” -> Jamil “for now, let’s just clean up, take some mops from the storage room -> Deuce, Ace, Kalim “okay.” -> Jamil “Kalim, you don’t have to do it… sigh.”

Azul showed up -> Grim mentioned how Jamil’s evil plan was streamed worldwide last chapter.” -> Azul “why do you think the merciful me would end my classmate societal life like that?” -> Jamil “…you would.” -> that day Azul was just on phone with Jade -> Azul “different from Leona, I don’t have an interest to beat down someone more than necessary, besides it’s a secret that I’ve finally got, I won’t do anything to make the price fall like that.” -> Jamil “hate to say it, but thanks to Azul’s mercifulness, my parents and Asim family didn’t know the real reason I overblot. But the dorm students…”

Flashback -> Scarabia students questioned why Kalim don’t change the vice dorm leader after what happened

-> Kalim “are you guys worried about me? Thank you! But… he was not the only one wrong this time, I’m also at fault. Besides, is there anyone in Scarabia that have not received help from Jamil?” -> student “that, that is true… if there’s something going wrong we would always just ask him…” -> Kalim “I know right? He is an excellent vice dorm leader. A lot better than me, the dorm leader. His judgements might be clouded back then, but he is still great at his work. He did try to expel me by manipulating you guys but… up till that incident, he has never hurt me even once before. He has many chances to do other much more horrible things to me, but he didn’t. Not once, in 17 years. I won’t call him a good guy but… it’s hard to explain but would you please give us more times?” -> students “…if that’s what you said so…” -> Jamil “…”  -> end of flashback -> Jamil “the chance I had for holiday was once in a lifetime, thought my life would be over if I failed, but in the end it didn’t change that much… surely something to be ‘grateful’ for. So unless I’m fired by Kalim, I’ll continue to serve him. And I’ll continue to show everyone how useful I am.” -> Grim “Jamil… your character really changed a lot after the holiday.” -> Azul “if you are fired by Kalim, Octavinelle will always welcome people like you with open arms.” -> Jamil “thank you for the offer, but no matter what happened I would never go to Octavinelle.” -> Kalim “Hey you guys~ if we don’t head out soon we are gonna be late for class!”

3 days later -> everyone is getting better at dancing and singing -> Jamil reminded them to sign up for audition with Rook in class 3-A -> Grim saw Leona and called out to him -> Leona: angry lion noises -> Grim asked where is Rook Hunt -> Leona “why are you trying to find that weird guy.” -> Rook suddenly popped up from behind -> Rook “hahaha, did I surprised you? Pardon. Conceal my footstep sound was a habit I had. I am Rook Hunt. The hunter of love that set his life theme as looking for beauty, helping beauty.” -> Leona “tsk, there it is, that weird guy.” -> Rook asked where is monsieur dandelion -> Leona “no way we are together 24/7, just take those herbivores and go.” -> Deuce questioned who is monsieur dandelion -> it was Ruggie -> the reason why Rook calls him that is because last spring, Rook saw Ruggie picking dandelion in the sports field. Ruggie plans to eat those since his budget is a little tight this month -> so Rook calls him monsieur dandelion out of respect -> Leona “that guy… is he really fine with eating everything that’s not rotten? He didn’t make me eat dandelions too, right…?” -> Rook “non non, it’s not poison, it’s not good to be picky like that lord lion.” -> Ace brought up the audition for VDC, we almost forgot about that because of what happened -> Rook “I apologize, so you guys are, human species Ace Trappola, height 172cm, from class 1-A with student number 25. Human species Deuce Spade, height 173cm, from the same class 1-A with student number 24. And human species MC with demon beast species Grim, height 70cm. right?”

-> Deuce “how did you know our class and student number!?” -> Ace “and even height too!?” -> Rook “huhuhu. As a hunter, I have to at least know the species and heights about the students.” -> there’s no need to write anything to sign up, you only need to show up to the audition 3 days later in Pomefiore’s ballroom -> Rook ask why don’t Leona try for the auditions too -> Leona “who would go to a game event like that, besides, that annoying Vil is also there. I would never go.” -> Rook “the Vil with the beauty of metropolis, and Leona kun with the beauty of wilderness. If both of you dances and sings together it would definitely be beautiful. The competition between different types of beauty, it’s just tres bien!” -> Leona “this guy really doesn’t listen to other people at all…”

3 days later -> in Pomrfiore dorm lounge, you saw around 50 students who’s also trying for audition -> Cater was also one of it -> since he wanted to go to the event with the famous celebrity Vil -> Ace “isn’t that reason a little too light hearted?” -> Cater “really? I thought everyone is like that, I mean look.”

-> pointed at Ruggie who’s clearly here for money -> Lilia popped up again -> you recognized him as the person who handed you the holiday card -> Grim “he wasn’t the sender?” -> Lilia “the initials are different from mine right?” -> Lilia is here since he’s in light music club and it just makes sense for him to try -> he tried to invite Malleus too but he said he don’t want it to become the exhibition of some kind so he refused -> Lilia “that guy is kind of shy” -> Cater “I feels like that’s a little bit different from shy…” -> Lilia asked why didn’t Cater brought Trey along -> Cater tried but Trey has to help Riddle with all the works

they saw Ortho by himself for audition too and was surprised -> Ace commented on how Ortho looks like an elementary school student -> Cater said Ortho is accepted into this school with Idia, and they always take classes together -> Grim “how much of a brothercon is Idia…” ->Ortho “don’t talk bad on my brother!” -> Ortho explained how everything was approved by the principals, and is not like Idia brought him just because he’s lonely by himself -> Cater “sorry sorry, we kinda got to excited while talking about it since the Shroud brother is like the 7 mysteries of this school.” -> Ortho “I want to apologize for getting too upset as well, I just don’t want you to misunderstand my brother…” -> Cater asked if Ortho is also here for audition -> flashback -> basically Idia made a software with his voice to read out everything he typed -> for the speech since he just can’t talk in front of everyone -> but Idia also got pretty interested in the sound editing world -> Idia “since virtual idol is getting popular, should I put vocal synthesizer in Ortho too?” -> Ortho “sounds fun! I wanted to sing too.” ->Idia “alright~ let big brother handle everything.” -> so to test how far the vocal synthesizer can go, Ortho is here to take the audition -> Ace was surprised that they can just make singing sounds from programs -> Cater said those got quite popular and he likes it too, and wanted to show Grim a video of it -> there was an ad

Neige is promoting in the ad -> Cater mentioned how popular he is getting -> Vil, Rook, and Epel kicked in with sparkling effects -> Vil started introducing himself and explains how he will be the producer for the members appears in VDC

Auditions starts -> Ruggie sung and danced

-> Rook “monsieur dandelion. Such a light step and bright smile. With manliness and loveliness combined perfectly. Beaute! 100 points!” -> Vil “his way of moving isn’t bad, but his dancing and singing is still messy… next!”

Cater -> Rook “monsieur magcam. Your voice sounds just like the elegant sparkling diamond! I wanted to listen to it forever. Beaute! 100 points!” -> Vil “singing and dancing wasn’t bad, but I can’t feel any passions… next!”

Lilia -> Rook “monsieur curiosity. Such a lovely form and singing voice with an alluring aura… Beaute! 100 points!” -> Vil “I don’t know why… but I can’t feel any freshness of a high school student from Lilia. Next!”

Ortho -> Rook “monsieur doll. What a brand-new style…! Your robot dance and singing voice, will be sculpted into my eyes. Beaute! 100 points!” -> Vil “no matter how genre-less this event is, there’s a limit… next!”

Kalim -> Rook “lord gold! Your dance were just like the breeze that blow through the hot sand! And the singing that make me felt like flying. Beaute! 100 points!” -> Vil “hmm, it’s a little bit better than the vegetables that’s just rolling around.”

Jamil -> Rook “monsieur mulch. As expected… I can feel your buring soul underneath your cool mask! Beaute! 100 points!” -> Vil “not bad, he’s the most normal one out of all of them.”

Epel -> Rook “monsieur crabapple. So lovely! Beaute! 100 points!” -> Vil “that kid, misstep again, no matter how good was his rehearse, it would be meaningless if he can’t do good in the real deal. Also, Rook. aren’t you giving out nothing but 100 points? Are you judging seriously?” -> Rook “of course, but it’s so hard to pick a first when everyone are so wonderful. There’s beauty in the neatness, and there’s also beauty in the twisted. Don’t you think so?” -> last group -> Ace, Deuce, and Grim -> Rook “…I see I see.” -> end of the audition -> result will come out tomorrow -> Rook recommend the trio to Vil

Next day, Ace, Deuce, Grim just got off from class -> suddenly an arrow flies across barely missed Deuce’s nose -> Ace realized there’s a piece of paper on the arrow -> Deuce “what!? Is it a challenge to fight!?” -> Ace “stop connect everything to a fight, let me see…” -> both Ace and Deuce are accepted -> you are also asked to go with those two

You all headed towards Pomefiore -> you saw both Kalim and Jamil -> they are accepted as well -> but after going in Pomefiore, students keep showing up asking for fight -> finally you arrived to the ballroom

-> Vil showed up with sparkling effects again -> apparently the students are fighting with you because you are accepted members, it was a warm up Vil prepared for all of you so he can start the lesson right away -> Vil “listen up, start from now on we would be the representation for NRC, and aim for the first place in the VDC. The members that can’t even win a fight like that is not needed. The battle has already started and all of you should be prepared to be whipped to shape!” -> Kalim “I don’t really understand but okay!” -> Grim asks why are him and you here when you are not accepted -> Crowley showed up and explained, in order to practice for the team work, all of the members will live together in Ramshakle dorm -> Grim wanted to refuse -> but Vil and Rook said they will give you all of their reward money since their goal in this event is not money -> which is around 1.42 million -> you decided to accept the deal after all ->Vil “now let’s start the lesson!” -> Ace “I thought the lesson starts when we starts living together?” -> Vil “don’t get a big head, new potato number 1. You are still an amateur at singing and dancing, we can’t waste a single minute.” -> practice time.

 End of this update.

Oh man it tooks me a whole entire day to do this… and to think this is just like part a of part1. The chapters are getting so much longer…

I Honestly felt like I missed up half of Rook’s nicknames since I don’t know French at all, basically got everything from google so please correct me if I’m wrong.

Also, Rook’s nickname for Epel is kinda weird, he call Epel hime ringo which directly translate to princess apple, but it is also a type of apple. In English it’s called crabapple, which kind of feels different then the Japanese text.

Can I just say I love the fact that we can fight Crewel now? And I just love how he call us zasshu while fighting, it probably referenced to like mixed blood dogs and all but it only reminds me of Gilgamesh lol.

Ahhh I really want Crewel to slap me.

A couple of replies! Starting with the one related to our Jamil art from yesterday hehehe.

Scarabia n.1 boyfailure! You made him look so cool!!!!!!! I tend to rag on this design quite a bit, but I think Jamil's OB has become my favorite exactly because to me it's almost equally ridiculous and awesome. With the kind of life he has, he deserves to act a bit silly (violently attacking people).

Also I can't stop thinking about the jp fandom calling his outfit "ecchi". Honestly, I really can't blame them... I like the legs...

Yessss him!!! Thank you so much, Anon ❤️ Ah Jamil and his silly emotional self… laughing maniacally kicking people around lol

He really is ecchi, the legs are amazing. While it took us 4 days to finish this one and I’m very satisfied with it, a part of me wishes we drew his legs too, they are absolutely criminal.

Overblots are such a delight and a pain to draw at the same time. I’m very happy we finished Jamil… it’s been a year since our last OB boy…

The headcanon about Ortho and Mira got me thinking about Ortho being rivals with a house Alexa and similar things. Ortho hating on commercial use AIs being all grumpy "you're giving the rest of us a bad name! >:["

(this is related to this post)

Omg YES Ortho and his surprisingly serious beef with all these AIs!! He is MUCH BETTER THAN ANY OF THEM, right? >:( !!!!

Anonymous asked:

So I saw that in a past ask that only two guys in Idia’s shippings is actually interested in becoming serious with him. How does Lilia see him then? As a friend with benefits? And is Idia aware of this or does he think they could become an actual thing?

The thing is, I don’t think Lilia is interested in having actual committed relationship with anyone at this point. I don’t know if he ever did (well, with one particular exception in his youth), but now he pretty much lives in the moment and enjoys human connections that happen to him right here and right now. Idia is pretty young, so Lilia wouldn’t want him to get too attached. While Idia isn’t a fae and his lifespan is much shorter than Lilia’s, Lilia is pretty old and yeeeeaah actually dating him would be rather cruel. I also think that Lilia probably considers himself not really... worthy of such a dedication? Idia is young and is going to change someone for serious relationships, and Lilia doesn’t see himself as someone who Idia would actually be in love with. Lilia doesn’t know how much he means to people around him, and Idia is no exception. So this approach would actually hurt Idia more in the end.

But another thing is, Lilia also hates having these conversations, so he isn’t going to have one lol To him he’s just having fun with Idia as long as it’s fun for them to be around each other. And since Idia is pretty young, Lilia also naively believes that whenever they stop spending time together, Idia will get over it. So yeah in a way he is still being cruel, albeit unintentionally.

Idia doesn’t know what their relationship is. He is a pessimist, and he just knows that something is unavoidably going to go wrong at some point, but he is also in love and really doesn’t want it to end. He probably tries not to overthink it to avoid getting too hurt and disappointed, but deep inside he would love to spend time with Lilia forever.

This reply ended up being not so funny, I’m sorry—

Say, a quick question about fem Kalim, since she is the heiress of her family, would she be subjected to the same marriage law as Princess Jasmine where she has to marry by the time she turns eighteen?

Huh! 🤔 Good question, I haven’t thought about it.

It’s a bit tricky because the Asims aren’t really royalty + Jasmine was the only daughter and Kalim has 30+ siblings…  but for the sake of some juicy drama it could still be the case (being forced to marry during your 3rd year of college, yikes).

I guess it’ll depend on the scenario we’re going to go for any specific post or comic.

hey saw you're getting into Treyvil! I read a really adorable fic on AO3 called Adequately Inadequate. I think the author was something like FabFoxFics or something like that.

Thank you for your recommendation, Anon! ❤️

While I don’t really read fanfics, I’ll still post it in case anyone is interested. Maybe I’ll check it out too…
