*Either all along or post-escape **Through being the reincarnation of James, one of his parents being a Ratri, or one of his more distant relatives being a Ratri

Really interested in the Other option as someone who came into the fandom after the series concluded and possibly missed some that were popular for a time and then dropped like a rock in the collective fandom conscience after a certain point.

Last lullaby

[kaii025]

A/n : This is my first time writing a fanfic. So I'll try to publish more when I'm not busy. A few things I want to clarify before we get into it.

I'm not good at grammars because English isn't my first language.

If I made some mistakes at the other parts please correct me if I'm wrong. I will try to fix it quickly as possible.

If you don't like my writings, leave. I don't need your opinion about slandering my writings.

Leslie's Lullaby

Y/n was caught by Isabella, alone near the wall underneath the tree, humming a familiar lullaby, Leslie's lullaby.

Y/n noticed her mother, Isabella, standing in front of her, frozen. She was shocked; too shocked to say anything. "Y/n, how did you know that lullaby??" Isabella asked, slightly panicking.

'How did she even know that??' Isabella thought.

"Mother, do you believe in reincarnation?" Y/n smiled as she asked Isabella. It took Isabella a second to realize what Y/n was saying.

Y/n stood up and held her mother's warm hands and said, "Mother, don't ever hate yourself for becoming a mother of this house, sending kids unwillingly. I know deep inside you, you wanted to escape and save those kids. So please mother, don't hate yourself. You have no choice but to survive."

Isabella couldn't believe what she was hearing; she felt hot tears coming out of her eyes, and she was crying.

"You've held and bottled so much emotion, Mother. Let it all out," Y/n said softly. Isabella bent down and hugged Y/n as Y/n comforted her mother.

There stood Emma, and Norman from afar. They couldn't believe the sight they were seeing. All they could do was watch with a heavy heart. They had thought that Isabella was doing it willingly.

In that moment, Isabella realized that Y/n was not just her daughter; she was also the embodiment of Leslie. Leslie, who had been a dear friend to Isabella, had sacrificed himself. Isabella had sung that same lullaby to the children as she sent them off to their death.

Y/n, who had been reborn as Leslie, had finally returned to the house to bring peace to Isabella's troubled heart. Together, they cried and laughed, reminiscing about the past and the future. From that day on, Isabella began to see Y/n in a different light. She was not just her daughter; she was also her dear friend, Leslie, who had returned to her in a new form.

Like emo mother like emo son

*No, I hope he never does. There's too much pain there, and letting it go is part of him moving on and healing. **He does for a few people/his family so they know it existed and each person can decide their own relationship with it, but he never sings it again after that. ***Yes. It's a slow process, but eventually he transforms it into something healing, even with the sadness it carries. He's still fairly private about it, though. ****I have strong leanings toward no but could be swayed toward yes by a capable author/artist. *****I have strong leanings toward yes but could be swayed toward no by a capable author/artist.

Isabella and Leslie literally left 10 minutes ago and Ray's already making fun of the baby. classic older brother things

[milkcookiekin]

I have tpn request (if you still write for it, the fandom is so small huhuhu) and its also 3am so stay w me here 🙏

Imagine like modern!au where Ray and Isabella actually have a healthy relationship (and perhaps Leslie is alive and is Ray's stepdad or smthn, I just hc that he is bcs I feel like his daughter is Anna and she becomes Ray's little sister when Leslie and Isabella get married hehe)

Enough of my rambling, uh, can you write Ray x fem!reader where he's introduced reader to his family for the first time? Tysm TwT

added!

Regarding Andrew, Shirai confirmed he was a member of the Ratri family, along with all the men at Lambda being researchers working for the Ratri family who came from the human world:

(Mystic Code Book Chapter 4 Q&A | Mystic Code Book Chapter 1 Q&A)

Also highly recommend reading the "Ray and Conny" short story from the fourth light novel if you're looking for more angst regarding them. </3 (Ray even mentions seeing Conny was what led him to Emma to the other Grace Field kids at the beginning:)

Another TPN manga panel redraw, but this time everyone goes down with me (because it's sad).

Also part one of my 'wonderful' tpn theories and head canons. It'll be long😅. There will be manga spoilers so please, read at your own risk😊.

First character I go through is... Ray.

He is one of the most complicated characters I ever saw (all tpn characters are, tbh). I always thought that people who have photographic memory are so lucky. Ray showed me that it's both a blessing and the curse.

Like in the picture above. You can clearly see that the first 2 kid waving at his direction. It's strange to know that there was a time when the Trio were one of the young kids and not the older ones. My first head canon is that Ray tried to save more kids, not just Emma and Norman when he was younger. When the blond haired boy leaves (first panel) he looks like he is about to cry (also the Trio is around 4 or 6) but when the other kids get 'adopted' Ray keeps his head low most of the frames (I'm convinced that when the second kid left he was already working as Isabella's spy.)

Ray coloration explained:

Purple eyes are self explanatory to me. I started draw him with purple eyes as soon as I found out he is Isabella's son. Purple in the hair and freckles? Well... I'm still very, very convinced that Leslie didn't die (at least not when he left the House). I always think about his situation, like what Norman got into with Lambda. The Ratri-clan is big but they need outsiders, to be soldiers, scientists, etc. And since girls from the Houses can only become Sisters and Moms... maybe some boys can become scientists and soldiers. (I can't believe I'm writing this but think about Andrew🤢... he was 100% not Ratri yet he could become an adult). So by this logic I believe Leslie could grow up too and (because I'm a sucker for happiness) he met Isabella again at some point.

Ray turning away:

On the second frame he is not looking at the girl who is leaving, but to the opposite direction. Why? Notice something else? Yes, Norman is missing too. Gilda has her winter jumper on so I figure Norman got sick again. Ray priorities his friends safety over everything else.

Also notice how Emma and Norman slowly get into the middle of the frame while Mom/Isabella get out of it? Pretty strong metaphor. It's the perfect example of 'Blood related family ≠ real family'. And while I'm a RayEmma shipper (obviously aged up version) I would never forget about Norman. He is as important to Ray as Emma. This Trio sticks together no matter what.

(older manga colouring ⬇️)

Now onto the hearth breaking stuff:

Ray's relationship with Isabella:

This deleted scene with Ray and Ayshe lives rent free in my head. Like there are two people with similar family situations and the one who lived int the middle of nowhere with a demon parent thinks positively about their parent, while the other, who grew up in a comfortable home like space with a human parent, thinks the opposite.

"But to me, she was always a monster"– Ray.

Like ufff... This sentence hits real hard. And it's low-key true from Ray perspective. He studied and read all the books in the House, not because he was interested, but because he had to. Norman is a genius, Emma learns real fast, Ray does everything he can to always get max points on his tests. But he also secretly planning his friends excape. Collects scraps of technology to build the device which makes them able to excape, plans his own 💀 carefully, so no one else will get hurt and on a top of that he is 'spying' for Isabella. Sacrifices people he wanted to protect. I can't imagine that inside panic when he didn't get max scores to that one test. I'm sure he was happy because Norman and Emma got their regular scores, but deep down he felt like he failed.

My head canon here is that Ray always gets nightmares if he is alone or in an unsafe place. And 'thanks' to his perfect memory his nightmares build up from actual memories (like we see that in the Seven Wall Arc). Also he doesn't get sick often but when he does... it's like a memory fuelled fever dream, with hallucinations and etc.

Ray's healing journey starts after the Jailbreak Arc. As soon as Mom is not around anymore, he ever so slowly starts to let down his guard and starts to show more and more emotions. His relationship with Yuugo/Mister is like a greatest archivment in his case. The playful, sarcastic 'arguments' and the way he openly said his opinion on things in front of Yuugo and Lucas. Shows how much he changed and opened up.

Isabella on the other hand... her change of heart and feelings were a mistery almost to the very end. To be honest I hated her most of the time, until the Back to Grace Field Arc. (Older manga colouring again⬇️😅)

Two things in this page which are very important.

1: Ray's guard is up again in no time, when he sees Isabella, while her emotionless mask is cracking. This is the first time we get a little inside of how she really feels about Ray.

2: Flashback of the two most important things that connects them. The song and the way they were forced to sacrifice others to stay alive.

The lullaby is very important, because it's calming and feels very intimate (like a normal parent-child relationship should be).

You also can't convince me otherwise that Ray didn't hummed this lullaby at least once in the B06-32 shelter to help the youngest kids fall asleep.

And now... onto the last picture. Their goodbye.

Saddest part ever! Never forgiving for this decision.

Ray and Isabella were never allowed to talk even two short sentences with each other without any consequences. In the House they had to play their assigned roles. Then they didn't see each other for almost 2 years. Finally they had to save half of the team from getting unalived... And they moment they would have time the last twist happens... leaving us with a sad ending.

Epilogue and Human World Arc...does little to compensate. Although I can't get over the fact that Yuugo's, Conny's and Isabella's 'ghosts' helped Ray found Emma in the Human World.

Speaking of finding Emma. My last head canon for Ray is the following;

When they found out that Emma lost all of her memories from the Demon World. Ray couldn't help himself but whisper a "I wish this happened to me". And everyone looks at him with an understanding smile thinking he blames himself for this... But in reality he really just selfishly thought (only for seconds) that he could forget everything happened on the other side.

Okay. That's all. Sorry for the supper long post and I'm forever thankful if you read through my brainrots 🥰😘. Also let me know if I should cover more characters like this. I'll obviously do Emma and Norman but if there any other characters you want to see please let me know🥰🤩💖.
