Hoping.

HELLO, I'M GOING TO RAMBLE A LITTLE GJXVKKC(the little drawing Is just there for more angst reasons, shh) Ngl sometimes I think about how the curse in Wonderland must have affected many AND THAT MAKES ME THINK ABOUT PUDDING, HATTER AND MADDIE

OK, so, From the perspective of the three of them, it starts the same:

They were peaceful, living happily... until suddenly, a catastrophe begins. The Evil Queen curses Wonderland, and everyone tries to escape to Ever After, the place considered the safest at the moment!

That's where the differences begin. Pudding stayed behind to look for Alistair and Bunny (two of Maddie's friends, whom she possibly watched grow up with her daughter), promising Hatter that she would return with them and that they would be okay.

Hatter took Maddie and two of her friends, Lizzie and Kitty, assuring them that everything will be okay, that Pudding will return to the rest of her friends (or so he hopes). But it doesn't end like that. They manage to escape, but the rest are left behind, being locked in Wonderland by Baba Yaga and the Brothers Grimm, along with the rest of Wonderland's habitants... wich Is already A LOT

Everyone was separated from their loved ones and their home, Wonderland being considered a dangerous place and not knowing if they were safe there :(

Hatter is now alone with his daughter, taking care of her and of course her two friends. Luckily, he has the help of the White Queen, but... his beloved wife is not there. Hoping she's safe, he tries to stay positive so the poor girls stay calm and have alteast fun after what happend!!

Pudding, on the other hand, is terrified and that same fear drives her to take care of Alistair and Bunny more than ever with the White rabbit, she has fear for the future, She misses her husband, misses her beloved daughter, and wonders all the time if they're okayy

AND THEN WE HAVE MADDIE!!

In a place where she feels she doesn't quite fit in, not understanding the rules but atleast her friends are there to undertand her!

She can see her father, who is trying to stay positive for her and the other's and admires hil even more but the truth Is, she misses her friends, her home and her mom 💔

Idk just a lot of toughts

Some Fun Facts About the Wonderlandians from the EAH Books

Maddie and Kitty can hear the narrator, but Lizzie can't. This is because, as queen, it's Lizzie's job to be bossy and bring some order to the chaos of wonderland. She "reminds things what they are when they forget." No word one way or the other on the White Queen, but I'd assume she has a similar problem.

Kitty CAN hear the narrator but spends most of her time pretending not to because:

Kitty does not like being narrated. She actively conceals her thoughts and feelings from the narrator most of the time and they have to guess based on her actions. She does have some tells though, like how she's always thinking about cheese when she licks her lips and looks up. She's also far from infallible and leaves her thoughts exposed whenever she's distracted.

Kitty has also managed to scratch the narrator before, despite them being an invisible bodiless being.

When Kitty turns invisible, she goes to a place called "Between" which is some sort of shadowland behind reality. She describes it as "a little like running, a bit like dreaming, and a lot like swimming." There is no collision In Between---you can freely move through walls and objects---and no significant gravity, since you can float. It also enables you to fast travel (1 step In Between can equal around 50 steps in reality).

It does however, make you feel weird and sleepy if you stay there for too long, and Kitty has an uncle who actually spent so much time Between that he became a permanent shadow.

The Mad Hatter can see Kitty when she's In Between. Or rather, in the words of the narrator: "He's just mad enough to THINK he can, which turns out, is very nearly the same thing."

The White Queen has a poor understanding of linear time, since it isn't linear in Wonderland. Her voicemail message says "I'm busy, call back five minutes ago."

While all three wonderlandians experience intense culture shock, Maddie has it the worst. Kitty and Lizzie are both very aloof and don't really have friends (outside each other and perhaps Maddie), but Maddie is sweet and kind to everyone, and so she has the most chances to experience Ever After's very different idea of manners. For example, Maddie was convinced for years that everyone in Ever After had really bad table manners because nobody had ever started a food fight.

Lizzie has an incredible memory, especially for things she reads, and was able to memorize the entire script of a play within 24 hours.

Lizzie has a deck of playing cards that her mother gave her with advice on them instead of numbers. Lizzie lives or dies by this advice, even when it doesn't make much sense in context, until she goes through some character development.

Sleep magic doesn't work on Maddie because she's crazy enough that her brain assumes a) she is already asleep and reality is just her dreams or b) her dreams cause reality.

Lizzie can build anything out of cards. Literally anything, and almost immediately. It's magical. She's built an entire wall out of them before. I can't remember if she has, but she definitely could build a functional bridge out of them.

All 3 Wonderlandians consider Cedar Wood a friend (best friend in Maddie's case), and would fistfight people for her.

I love how consistent iwtv is with how vampires work when it comes to the storyline. There’s this fucking line I’m too lazy to screenshot where Armand tells Daniel that since he’s over 500 years old the sunlight doesn’t hurt his skin as much as it would for younger vampires.

When it came to the execution of Claudia and Madeline, since Claudia was a vampire of over 30 years and Madeline had only been one for a few days, Madeline died first, leaving Claudia to die only a minute after her.

idk, this is just a interesting thing I noticed, wonder if anyone else did too

Hi. I'm cyberbullying a long dead poet because of his shitty fanfic. Enjoy. I'd love it if you joined me.

(Before you get mad at me, yes, I know Eugammon of Cyrene is an important figure and all that. I'm sick with some sort of flu. Let me cyberbully an ancient dead fanfic writer in peace.)

Hyper anon: well since you're here...and you're back from your break let's go ahead and restart the silly adventures of a certain...baker.

Ok so hcs request to welcome ya back...unless you'd rather do a one shot but still...to give you context:

The Cookies finally bringing their baker into the world who I can imagine at first would...be very shy and nervous...like hiding themselves due to habit and stuff but once the cookies pry open the baker's shell and make them learn that they love the baker and can feel safe around em...they show off their boundless energy so they go from a shy, nervous, quiet baker to a bouncing off the walls, energetic, happy go lucky baker!

A/n: HYPER BAKERRR, the literally pride and joy of my blog! Just something small to get me back into writing

LETS SET THE SCENEE, as always, gender neutral pronouns unless stated otherwise😋

• Hyper! Baker who turns out to be the complete opposite of the scripture once they arrive to the kingdom. They were ment to be lively, full of energy, and can light up room with a smile— Instead they hide on top of fridges, run away every time a cookie tries to talk to them, and just so shy!

• When Pure Vanilla host parties in the bakers honor, they usually hide in the corner! They just get so nervous and don’t know what to do!

• Once the baker does finally come out of their shell, they didn’t realize what they were getting themselves into-

• Hyper! Baker is running up and down the walls, collecting rubber duckys (if you know yk), and their favorite thing: running through walls :D

• One second Bakers there, the next they’re swinging on the castles chandelier (IF YOU KNOW YK)

• Hyper! Baker was literally a leash child when they were younger, I whole heartedly believe that

• The cookies are on babysitting duty to make the Baker doesn’t end up lost in the forest and find Millennial Tree.. Pure Vanillas biggest rival :0

sos does anyone have a huge cock I could bounce on until I can’t form a coherent sentence and my brain is fuzzy 😇

One of my favorite things about Madeline Celeste is like. she's the most least normal person ever. It feels like there's so much known about her but also so little

We know she has a job, but what kind of job? God knows.

Aside from some dialogue from her mom we know NOTHING about her family

Interests: Climbing, archery, baking, ??????

She (used to?) get mad at people on the internet constantly, she doesn't own a cell phone.

She drinks, what does she drink, beer? wine?

She has a fucking gaming keyboard seemingly

She's, for all intents and purposes, a normal human woman. She fell down basically an entire mountain and was almost completely unscathed.

And like don't get me wrong all these unknowns make sense, they're not really relevant to the game but like. Trying to write her for my fanfic makes me realize a bit how anomalous she is. The most least normal person ever.

Just stumbled headfirst into the Indie Cross story and wanted to throw an idea out into the wild

What if Nosk shows up

It seems to be set up that we won't get more than one character from each individual story (unless they're a package deal like Madeline's got going on) but that rule doesn't apply when in universe (damn near all the fnaf animatronics pulled up)

Episode 2 ends with characters getting tossed into portals

So if any of those portals drops them in the wrong part of Deepnest, someone might see a familiar figure and rush to meet them because "friend! You're okay!"

Only for that horned figures head to snap sideways, body distorting, and suddenly there's a screaming Nosk barreling towards them.

We have too few episodes to work out any world hopping patterns, I don't know if they'll travel to any of the current groups own worlds, so maybe not. But I'm an angst gremlin and the idea of the gang thinking their friend is back only to be met with some exorcist level horror has me in evil mode.

hey this is an iwtv quiz i made a while back if anyone wants to do it :))

[tamaruaart]

I really dislike the Circe book by Madeline Miller, and one of the biggest reasons why is because Miller tries so hard to victimize Circe. At the expense of all the other characters we love. And it's especially frustrating when CIRCE is the bad guy in those situations. Like it's not feminism, it's the justification of wrongdoings just because they're done by women. She does bad things in the book, but it's noticable the writer wants us to forgive those things by giving her trauma, and by making someone else the big bad.

And like. Sometimes it's just too much. I might've missed an explanation for this, or maybe this is in a thing in Greek Mythology that I'm not aware of (please inform me if that's the case!), but why would Helios hate Circe's eyes? Because they're "piss-colored"? The children of Helios HAVE to have golden eyes, it's literally their thing. So, did Miller change the lore just to make Kirke more sympathetic (which, deletes the purpose of this wanting to be a story that "gives a voice to women", and "tells her true story", when this ISN'T her true story. And it's manipulating the original story to make Circe look like a victim. The Odyssey, a work told over 2000 years ago, does so much better than this so-called "feminist masterpiece" in my opinion), or did she purposefully make Helios a moron just so we feel more for Circe? And if that's the case, this is a PEAK example of the demonization of the other characters for Kirke's sake. Like I love Circe, but I love the other characters as well, and of course I'm not going to like the book if it just ruins all of them for her sake.

Briar and Apple being BFFAs at the beginning of the show but started drifting apart as time went on the series that they're barely seen with each other in the later seasons vs Raven and Maddie sticking together most of the time throughout the show despite everything....

The Fall of House Usher was so good because every single woman is this tweet:

[liliasenbyhusband]

My new favourite dynamic:

Bitchy lesbian who loves attention, pretty things, is considered vain and only ever married a man to get what she wanted but never really loved him and constantly thinks about her rival

Bisexual who at first glance looks kinder but is just as bad (if not worse) and lost the man she actually loved by being way too invested in her rival, who she has homoerotic tension with

And they’re both obsessed with one another for an absurd amount of time. And near the end of the musical they grow just a little softer towards each other and share a song in which the lesbian fixes a make-up/paint related issue for the bisexual

there are two categories of Ever After High lexicon

and no they aren’t phrases and proper nouns.

the first category is universal dialect. this encompasses all of the common words or phrases that everyone uses. this includes proper nouns like celebrity names (tailor quick, one reflection), locations (castleteria, charmitorium), sports + events (thronecoming, track & shield), items (mirrorphone, bookball), etc. this also includes commonly used words or phrases, such as “wait a spell”, “what the hex”, “charm/spell you later”, “fableous”, “spelltacular”, “fairest”, “B.F.F.A.”, and the list goes on.

the other category is for words or phrases that are either character, story, place, or species specific. these are the things that not everyone is going to use, typically being used by only one character. though, it wouldn’t make sense if they were to be used by others. one of the first and blatant examples comes in the form of some of what maddie says (aside from speaking riddlish). she says things like “hat-tastic” or “tearrific”, which are puns with a mad hatter theme. off the top of my head, another instance of this is cedar’s use of the word “splinter”. other examples not limited to a certain character and/or story but rather an uncommon trait include winged characters using phrases that reference wings, villainous/characters who come from villain parents using terms or phrases that you’d associate with an evil connotation, and a lot of the wonderlandian slang. then there are words or phrases that may be used at any given moment by the character(s) it applies to, but when in the specific location they come from or in reference to their particular story, may be used by other characters. easy example is the word “wonderlandiful”. while this is wonderlandian slang, when either referencing wonderland or something to do with it, or being in wonderland itself, a non-wonderlandian might describe something as wonderlandiful.

i just thought i’d share that observation.

The things I have drawn so far for my ever after high/metaphor refantazio crossover au. Strowill adopts Raven. I’m thinking about making it strowill+louis (I am but I have no drawings of it yet). Was gonna make some notes below a cut but I’m way too sleep deprived for that right now.
