#jaxon and ace being at each others throats yet again

[ryker-writes]

Oh I meant how others refer to him? Like what does Floyd, Leona, Rook, etc. call him?

Also the backstory of Jaxon calling Epel 'little fighter' sounds interesting lol. He and Epel are both standoffish so I wonder if they may have had a scrap before.

Ace being called brat is so funny tho. Both Jaxon and his boyfriend hate Ace 😭 I imagine it’s something like 'what do you even see in him?’ if he found out Yuli liked him. Especially since the better option in his opinion would probably be Deuce.

Is Jaxon uneasy around Malleus like the rest of the student body? And what are his relationships with the other students like? Like Trey and Cater, the Scarabia duo, Octavinelle, Vil and Rook, Ignihyde, and the Diasomnia guys?

oh whoops my bad lol

Floyd: Frogfish

Leona: Crow

Rook: Monsieur les cauchemars

Malleus: Young Crowley

While yes, both Jaxon and Epel are standoffish at first, there was a time where Epel heard something about Jaxon from the other first years and wanted to fight him. Epel tried to, but Jaxon wasn't having it. But Jaxon can appreciate his fighting spirit so he calls him little fighter

If he found out Yuli likes Ace he'll literally have a moment of silence before asking "Why?" He doesn't understand it. Jaxon gets along pretty well with Deuce so he's like "But Deuce is right there???"

As for his relationships with other students:

Deuce:

he gets along pretty well with him! Deuce reminds Jaxon a bit of himself, but Deuce made better decisions. They bond over their past of delinquency and trying not to fight people. In a way, they support each other in overcoming that challenge of their past

Trey:

They don't talk much, but they're okay with each other. Trey is always nice and pretty quiet, so Jaxon has nothing against him. So they're sort of okay, but not close at all

Cater:

Cater annoys him so much. He doesn't like Cater's need to take photos of everything (especially if it's of him). His general attitude also get's on Jaxon's nerves

Kalim:

Jaxon is okay with him. On one hand, Kalim's energy is a lot for Jaxon and can be too much sometimes. But Kalim accepted him from the beginning regardless of what Jaxon's past is like. Jaxon really appreciates and values that. Kalim also invited him to a party, but that was too much for Jaxon and he turned it down. I feel like inside, Jaxon is really grateful towards Kalim

Jamil:

no, just no. Jamil generally tries to avoid him as much as possible, and Jaxon does not like Jamil. Jaxon hates people trying to manipulate him and doing things behind his back, and that's exactly how Jamil operates. Jamil is trying to avoid a fight for both him and Kalim

Azul:

Azul wants to get along with Jaxon. Jaxon does not want to get along with Azul. Similar to what I said about Jamil, Jaxon doesn't like people trying to manipulate him. There's also no way he's ever signing a contract, but Azul wants him to. The son of the headmage is a good person to have an advantage over, but Jaxon isn't going to let that happen

Jade:

Again, Jaxon doesn't like being manipulated, but he gets along better with Jade than Azul and Jamil. Mostly because Jade is at least honest and polite without fully intending to get an advantage over him. But they're not close

Floyd:

most likely to get into a fight. Floyd might try and fight him. Also, Floyd's chaotic nature and mood swings can get on Jaxon's nerves. So for the sake of things, they don't interact too often

Vil:

Nope. They don't get along either. Jaxon doesn't care at all about beauty or elegance or anything, and that annoys Vil. Vil finds it horrible that Jaxon walks around with his hair a mess and dark circles around his eyes. In Jaxon's mind, Vil is stuck up and a beauty queen (in an insulting way)

Rook:

They're okay. Rook is weird, but get's along pretty well with most. Jaxon has no problems with him, but if Rook stalks him too much he can get annoyed. Generally, they're okay interacting but not close

Idia:

Idia is terrified of Jaxon and avoids him as much as possible. Jaxon has met him like once and had no interest in him at all, so Jaxon doesn't really care about him

Ortho:

Ortho is a bit too nice for Jaxon to be close with him. He just doesn't trust him and is unsure about him. But Ortho is friendly towards him and offers to help (which Jaxon always refuses)

Sebek:

They don't get along. Sebek wants to keep Jaxon away from Malleus at all costs. Jaxon is just constantly annoyed by Sebek and his yelling. Most likely, Jaxon will tell Sebek to be quiet or shut up, and that will start an argument

Malleus:

They're fine. Neither has any problems with the other, and they don't really avoid each other, but they aren't close. Jaxon isn't uneasy around him or anything and has no problems talking to him. In fact, they sometimes run into each other when wandering the campus at night. They have conversations sometimes, but not often

Lilia:

Eh, they're okay. Lilia sort of sees him as a aggressive youngster and Jaxon sees Lilia as a old man who keeps trying to give people advice. They barely interact, and don't really connect on much, but also have no problems with each other

AHHHH I LOVE IT THE INTERACTIONS ARE SO CUTE BETWEEN THEM ALL

Of Masks and Men

Pairing: Yuli Chen (OC) x ???

Fandom: Twisted Wonderland

Genre: fluff

Word Count: 1k

A/N: I listened to this soundtrack while writing this! Jaxon belongs to @ryker-writes

A time spent with friends at Night Raven College's masquerade ball leads to the discovery of a secret admirer.

Despite Crowley’s refusal to spend a single madol more than necessary, Night Raven College’s annual Masquerade Ball was nothing if not lavish. The high ceilings of the cafeteria had been transformed into a cathedral-like grandeur, and ambient golden lights beamed down from the chandeliers, illuminating the partygoers as they danced and chatted. 

Yuli leaned against a pillar near the western wall, sipping a flute of apple cider. The cape of her masquerade dress hung over her shoulder in a wave, the pink silk shimmering in the light. She was sure that if she stood still enough, she would blend into the checkered floors and arched windows; just another piece of the glorious scenery around her. 

“Don’t eat too much all at once,” she reminded Grim, nudging his side with her boot. “Leave some food for the others to enjoy.” 

Grim was stuffing his face at the party table, his own small suit matching hers in color and design. She had worked diligently on their costumes for weeks, only just finishing them that very night. While she was careful and considerate of her own hard work, she couldn’t say the same for her rascal of a dorm member. 

“Yeah, yeah, I know,” Grim mumbled around a mouthful of something-or-other. He grinned at her. “I’m just making use of the resources available to us here. Free food here means that we won’t have to pay for groceries for a while, right?” 

He went to wipe his paws on the mini ruffled top he was wearing. Yuli pulled them away and made him use a napkin instead. “Yes, eating now means less madol on groceries later- but that doesn’t give you the excuse to stain your shirt.” 

“Grim! Yuli!” A familiar voice with a playful lilt to it called out Yuli looked up, eyes brightening. Even with the masks obscuring the top halves of their faces, she would know these two anywhere. 

“Ace, and Deuce!” she waved as they approached, bickering as usual. 

“I thought you said the masks kept us from anyone recognizing us? But Yuli knew it was us right away…” 

“Ha! I can’t believe you actually fell for that!” 

Oh, Deuce… Yuli shook her head, smiling fondly. “Did you get those outfits from Sam’s shop?” she asked. “They look wonderful!” 

“Yep!” Ace gave her a crooked grin. “Cater helped me and Juice here score a sweet discount thanks to a Magicam sponsorship. Check ‘em out!” 

Yuli rounded the two boys, taking in their costumes. They both wore dark musketeer-style suits with fringed capes and felt hats with feathers protruding from the top. The only difference between the two was the tint of the fabric, with Ace’s being a deep red, while Deuce’s was dark blue. “Hold on.” She tugged Ace’s collar up. “There, it’s aligned now.”

“We waited for you at the entrance for a while,” Deuce informed her. “But you never showed up. Did something happen back at Ramshackle Dorm that made you late for the party?” 

“No, I was just finishing up mine and Grim’s outfits,” she explained. She spun around. “Aren’t they pretty? I didn’t think I’d have any use for that roll of silk that Vil gave me after the VDC, but I’m glad I kept it.” 

Ace whistled, smirking. “If you were gonna show off for us, you could have just done it in private, you know?” 

Deuce went red as Yuli rolled her eyes. “Oh, shut up, you little shit-”

“Indeed, our Child of Man looks quite radiant tonight.” A deep voice rumbled in her ear. Ace and Deuce fell silent beside her. Only one person could have that effect on the students of NRC- Yuli knew exactly who it would be before she turned around. 

“Tsunotarou! You’re here!” 

The great Malleus Draconia smiled down at her, the dark jewels of his mask perfectly complimented his green eyes. “Child of Man,” he greeted, and nodded at Ace and Deuce, who returned it nervously. “Lilia was kind enough to remind me of this little rendezvous tonight, so I made it on time.” He paused. “I didn’t see you at the opening ceremony. Did you perhaps get lost? You haven’t had much time to get used to Night Raven College’s sprawling campus.” 

“No, I was finishing up Grim’s costume,” she explained again. Yuli didn’t bother to mention that she’d been here for over half a year now. A few months was trivial to an ancient Fae like Malleus. “Speaking of Lilia… he must be here as well, then?” She glanced around.

“Yes, he was performing some peculiar dance that he referred to as the ‘WAP’  on the far side of the room just a few minutes ago-”

“GET AWAY FROM LORD MALLEUS, FOUL HUMAN!” Sebek appeared, pushing his way through the crowd. 

“Aaaand, there goes the peace,” Ace muttered under his breath, frowning. His scowl only deepened when Silver followed soon after, along with a tall boy with dark hair. Yuli recognized him as Jaxon, the headmage’s son and Savanaclaw student- and Ace’s perpetual rival. 

“Sebek, the Prefect is only making polite conversation with our Lord,” Silver sighed, stepping to Malleus’s side. “The Students of Night Raven College are here today to foster goodwill among themselves, not stay solitary.” He gave a fond glance to Jaxon, whose arm was linked with his. 

“But no human is worthy to stand near his side! Especially when I, Sebek Zigvolt, humble servant of Briar Valley, am not nearby to monitor their behavior!” Sebek insisted, face red from the exertion of yelling. Silver sighed, resigned, while Ace plugged his ears. 

Yuli didn’t miss how he flipped off the loud first year- and Jaxon, too- behind his back. She pinched Ace in the side, making him yelp. “Be nice,” she hissed to him. 

Malleus watched the whole situation play out, amused. “I must take my leave now,” he mused, “Lilia will be wondering where I’ve gone by now. But I wish you well, Child of Man.” He paused. “And just so you know, a certain King of Roses has been watching you from across the room this whole time. Perhaps he is too shy to approach you first?” 

With a sweep of his cape, he was gone.

Heartslabyul

After returning from a meeting with the headmage about Jaxon's return, Riddle had made one thing clear to all students of Heartslabyul:

"You are not to talk or interact with Jaxon under any circumstance."

Several of the freshman students had asked why. To which they were all told that Jaxon was dangerous, and it was for their own safety. The second and third years didn't even need to ask. They knew well who Jaxon was and what he's capable of.

Ace was one of these students who didn't fully understand. It isn't unusual for there to be fights around the school, so what's the big deal? There's no way this guy could be that dangerous compared to some of the other students around the school.

His curiosity got the best of him. So the first day that Jaxon got back, Ace wanted to see the guy. A lot of students did.

The son of the headmage: a delinquent who nearly beat a Heartslabyul student to death.

It sparked conversation in the school, and naturally, made students curious. And it wasn't hard to find Jaxon. A tall student walking through the halls, not wearing school uniform, and being avoided by almost everyone was easy to spot.

He walked around looking completely uninterested in everything and everyone around him. People were talking about him, and surely he heard, but he acted like he didn't care.

As the school day went on, it was clear everyone was avoiding interacting with him as much as possible. Some even avoided being in the same room as him.

Ace didn't see any problems. In his eyes, everyone was making too big of a deal over nothing. There was no reason for Heartslabyul students to avoid Jaxon.

So, he decided to try and prove a point...by going to talk to Jaxon. And of course he dragged Deuce along with him.

"Ace I don't think we should. The housewarden said not too. We may lose our heads for this."

Ace didn't care. Riddle may have their heads, but he'd also have the chance to prove Riddle wrong.

Instead of eating lunch with everyone else, he and Deuce went off to find Jaxon. Unlike most students, Jaxon didn't spend his lunch in the cafeteria. He chose to spend his lunch wandering around the campus.

When Ace and Deuce found him, Ace spoke first.

"Oi. You're Jaxon right?"

Jaxon kept walking as if he didn't even hear Ace talking. Ace got annoyed by this, and moved in front of Jaxon's path. But, Jaxon just walked around him without even glancing in his direction.

"Hey! Don't ignore me!"

Once again, Ace stepped in front of Jaxon.

"I'm just trying to talk."

Jaxon stopped walking, and finally looked directly at Ace. When he looked into his eyes, Ace started to feel anxious and uneasy about standing in front of him.

"Get out of my way, and leave me alone."

"Dude I just wanna talk."

Jaxon huffed, and Ace felt himself grow more nervous about being near him.

"There's a reason you Heartslabyul students are supposed to avoid me. It's best for you to stay far away from me. Now, get out of my way."

It didn't matter if Ace wanted to or not, Deuce pulled him away, and Jaxon left without another word. Riddle did find out later, and scolded Ace and collared him.

okay how would Jaxon react to Akuji turning into a baby because od Ace messing up a spell.

Hope your not overworking yourself be sure to take a break and play Stardew Valley

Jaxon would of course, be upset with Ace. I mean if it's Ace's fault then of course Jaxon is going to blame him because they just love to be at each others throats. But he'd try and make sure that Ace takes care of Akuji because it's his fault. If Jaxon thinks Ace isn't doing a good job at it tho, he'll step in to try and take care of her while scolding Ace

Thank you! I'm trying not to overwork myself too much. I'll definitely have to take a break soon to play stardew tho lol

[ryker-writes]

Jaxon and Riddle are the definition of frenemies to lovers and I’m living for it. How many times has Riddle collared him before realizing that he likes him? Lmao

Tbh I can see Jaxon and Yuli having a negative relationship at first since her first impression of him would be through Ace, who probably butts heads with him a lot and complains about him. But depending on what role Jaxon plays in the Savanaclaw chapter, they’d probably end up on good terms.

What’s Jaxon’s involvement with the Savanaclaw chapter like? And since Yuli and Ace are close, how would that affect both of their relationships with Jaxon?

...a lot. Riddle has collared him a lot once he realized Jaxon wasn't going to hurt him for collaring him. Jaxon doesn't have much of a problem breaking rules, so he gets collared a lot. Even after Riddle realizes he likes him, he still gets collared sometimes

Ace and Jaxon definitely get on each others nerves. Jaxon thinks Ace can be annoying at times and Ace just somehow manages to get on his nerves often

I don't think Jaxon would've had much involvement with the events of the Savanaclaw chapter. That was probably around the time he came back to the school, so he was still adjusting and struggling to work with others. Leona did select him to be a part of the spelldrive team, but Jaxon didn't have anything to do with the whole plan to hurt competitors. He knows he can't hurt people at the school this time, and considering one of the targets was Malleus, he wouldn't have helped anyway. Jaxon can understand Malleus is above his level in terms of strength and has a decent relationship with him, so he has no interest in hurting Malleus.

Jaxon will get used to dealing with Ace. As long as he's friends with Yuli, he can stand to be around Ace. They're like the two friends that argue all the time and threaten to fight each other, but they never do. Jaxon doesn't care about who those he's close with are friends with much
