#twst but with a shameless self insert

[gottaarc]

I love just scrolling canon x oc tags because I love seeing art of characters I enjoy and I also love seeing people's ocs. It's like the best of both worlds

[callinskiiscalling88]

To your "what cringe sutff you used to do in twst fandom" ask...

So I am fanfic writer lol... Every single twst writing what I did before 2022 is cringe in my opinnion lol.

Would delete those if I could.

AS SOMEONE WHO USED TO WRITE FANFICS I UNDERSTAND. I WAS A HORRIBLE RUIKASA WRITER PERSONALLY. I never got into twst fic writing tho (but I wrote a self insert here on Tumblr one time (shameless plug in)) but

Dw people aren't as judgemental if it as you are. No one's looking at em and thinking "look at this cringy buffoon ew".

If you've posted any family Diasomnia content, Azul x Idia or Floyd x Riddle on ao3 tho I've probably read it. (I've also Indukged in a bunch of ruikasa (PJSEKAI), Wataru x Eichi, Shu x Mika, CrazyB schenanigans (Enstars) and Volo fics tho (Pokemon) so if you ever posted any of those I might've seen em too)

More nicknames tbd

[aquaburst3]

After reading a lot of retelling fics with their own takes on Yuu, when they aren't a shameless blank slates or self inserts, they often tend to be more RSA-like, who are either...

Morally just, heroic types, who will always step in to lend a helping hand, even to the detriment to themselves

Shy soft people who can't stand up for themselves

While there's nothing wrong with these types of characters and there are certainly exceptions to this rule, it is the common trend. Hell, even the official Yuus in the novel and the mangas fit that archetype. Sometimes you want to see something different.

Addie doesn't fit that that. She's much more akin to the Night Raven students where she's more grey, being a partly reformed popular mean girl with everything that trope implies. She's cut throat, materialistic, judgemental, manipulative, guarded, secretive, has massive trust issues, in her own head a lot, has a "throw them to the dogs" attitude for those she doesn't know and sometimes downright cruel.

But at the same time, like the Night Raven students, she's not pure evil and have a lot of good traits as well. Addie shares a lot of traits with Jasmine. She's sassy, bold, quick thinking, clever, adaptable, ambitious, loyal, and detailed oriented. She also has that Slytherin-like quality, where if you are her friend or loved one, she will be ride and die for you.

This works a lot better with the dynamic of the story. Seeing characters who are darker and motivated are fun to read about too. That's why people like characters like Light Yagami and Walter White, despite them being horrible people. But also with a lot of the other Yuus, there's often a disconnect between them and the cast. Because they are so heroic and nice, they sometimes don't truly understand these characters at a fundamental level. At worst, they sometimes talk down to or nag at them.

Whereas Addie, she can meet the cast on their level. She actually gets it. The world is a tough and cruel places. Sometimes you have to do what you have to do in order to get by. Thanks to that, she can bond with the TWST cast much more closely and doesn't view them in such a distant light. It also helps with her love interest, since she understands where he's coming from and are supportive of him regardless while being able to talk sense into him when he acts REALLY out of line.

Don't get me wrong. Like I said before, there's nothing wrong with the more RSA-like leads in fics. They can work as long as they have genuine flaws and have set backs in the narrative. Just like any other type of lead. But it is something that I've noticed and I wish there were more Yuus that aligned more with the NRC students out there.

"What if the reality that you knew was stripped away from you? In a blink of an eye, magic became real, the very concepts of fantasy and fiction are the norm. At the same time, stories of figures you knew are the villains are now portrayed as heroes, noble and powerful figures respected by all, some even look up to them as inspiration. Did they hide the truth? Or am i seeing another side to these antagonists? The lines are too blurry to come up with a solid answer. How did i end up here...?"

Welcome to the Villain’s World

[dizplicity-draws]

I saw this one text post and I had to I’m sorry Azul

[twstedbeauty]

you guys want a little sneak peek of a shameless self insert fic I’m writing?

“I’ve already told you why.” Farah placed her hands on her hips, narrowing her eyes at Vil. “You need to lay off with the regimen stuff. It’s getting annoying. You don’t live here, so you can’t dictate with we eat with the food we buy.” She turned to head into the Ramshackle kitchen. “I’m getting the cookies.” 

“No.” 

It was just one word and it stopped her dead. Everyone in the room turned to look at Vil, who stood straight and intimidating, staring icily at the prefects back. There was a few beats of silence before, slowly, Farah turned back around and rose her eyebrows at him. 

“I’m sorry..." She began in a dangerously calm tone. "Did I start that sentence with the words “If it please Your Highness?”

[eliza1art]

It’s just a colored sketch, but i don’t think i’m going to finish it so here it is.

Lilia is absolutely living in my brain rent-free and i love it, especially vampire Lilia.

[call-me-aesthetic]

So uhhh... 😳

How bout Equestria Girls for round two??

You guys asked and I give 😌💅

Sorry for the lazy edit, I was feeling a bit tired today but here you go, MLP Anons

Also, don’t mind the cast change, thought it was necessary–

[afraid-of-the-deep-sea]

Twst headcanons part 2, again by yours truly but now with more projecting onto idia

-ace knows how to lockpick and tries to be mysterious and cool about why he has that particular skill but actually he just learned it from whatever version of YouTu be twst has

-Jack wears shorts in winter, and he keeps saying he's not cold even tho u can see his goosebumps

-Floyd always has cold sweaty palms

-Vil's cheeks will naturally turn red in the evening or when he's tired and he's really insecure about it. Throughout the day he'll often check if he hasn't turned into a tomato/press cold objects against his face when nobody is looking

-vil fucking hounds ppl he cares about to take care of themselves, to the point where he goes off about how important taking care of your body is like every other week or so and epel (a firm believer in 2-in-1 shampoo) is sick of it

-idia fnaf fan so true!!

-also had a big undertale phase, he knows the underverse by heart. Ask him about disbelief papyrus of swapfell sans I dare you

-he's also a reddit mod but on anime related subreddits, and he's VERY serious about spoiler warnings. Truly someone who believes that a show is ruined when it's spoiled

-deuce's hair is crazy damaged from all the bleaching he did back in the day

-on twitter cater acts like a celeb but he has like a 50 followers and 3 mutuals. He also absolutely misuses the "this tweet doing numbers" meme it's so annoying (i mean this in the most loving way)

-leona thinks he's above social media and especially hates tiktok. Ruggie always calls him an old man

-ruggie really likes collecting shiny or colourful stuff, he just thinks it's neat

-idia has like a super popular 600 k words fic on ao3 that he wrote when he was 13 and never finished, and he still gets comments on jt. It is shameless self-insert starring his favourite character as the protagonist basically living out his dream life and was a major outlet for all the grief he was experiencing and a fair bit of teen angst. He hasn't updated it in years and stopped writing during the big conclusion of the arc, and still feels shame for not finishing it. Still he can't bear to go back to the fic

-Lilia is the sort of person you pass everywhere but is nowhere to be found when you actually need him for smt. Like he'll be in places where he doesn't need to be but when you're doing a group project with him you literally cannot find him

-lilia also LOVESSS correcting teachers/store employees, he gets such a rush out of it. Like he'll ask things just to correct people. Silver feels so bad for the poor person on the receiving end and always whispers an apology

-cater knows too many old tumblr memes, he uses "It's fucking wimdy" daily and it drives riddle insane. Definitely someone to overuse memes in general.

-idia has a love hate relationship with dating simulators cuz he hates picking wrong dialogue options. The embarrassment is too much for him. This is why he can't stand most dramas. Plots that center around misunderstandings and shit just make him cringe so hard he covers his ears not to hear the dialogue

[cottonfeltgembira]

hey, i just wanted to say i love ur ocs!!! they’re super creative and make me want to know more!!! if u ever want to ramble or talk about them more (specifically about ur oc’s relationships with others) then i’m more than willing to listen and ask questions about em!!! ur creativity is awesome

AHHHHHH FANK YEWW SM ANON ｡ﾟ(ﾟ´Д｀ﾟ)ﾟ｡ sniffles fefeffefe my darling little ocs I care a lot about them :]

Speaking of which, would be a good time to kinda give some extra details and general info of the ones I have so far !(^o^)!

Mnemosyne Vicas

He's essentially my medium to interact with twst's overall story since I struggle with doing sonas or self inserts (mostly due to the fact I have trouble understanding myself as a single person being a system and what not)

He's kinda the main oc if you will (｡･･｡) since I put a lot of thought into making him (even his name has ties to themes of memory because of the ghost camera) though his origin is pretty KH heavy, it's pretty much incomprehensible if you've never played/watched Kingdom Hearts Union Cross •́ε•̀٥

Mnemosyne ADORES Grim, he's one of the few people besides Malleus who recognizes him as a monster instead of a cat/weasel/cute animal. Although he doesn't refer to Grim as a monster, instead a beast felt more accurate for him.

I think his most interesting relationship would have to be......Jade? The entire nature of their bond is complicated at best, incomprehensible at worst.

And what started their relationship (or the very least, both Jade's fascination and infatuation with Mnems) only makes this worse. Nothing like almost amputating someone's arm to get those feelings going! Mnemosyne still feels bad for the whole thing even if it was justified (seeing as the tweels were ordered to stop Mnemosyne from winning the bet with Azul)

Yuna

No last name for now (I'll add it once I've figure it out!!) She's a secondary MC to Mnemosyne (Yuu 2? You two!!) She's actually based on the fact I've haven't really gotten to indulged in stuff like this in years ;; it's kinda odd to get back into oc x canon when the last time I've done that was maybe what? 5-6 years ago??? She's the epitome of a nerdy and dorky teenager with a heavy media based interest.

In a sense, Yuna is my love letter to all those teen girls from the early 2000's who were so lovingly shameless with the content they made for the media they loved （●＾o＾●） she probably has made a LOT of self insert fics (definitely a very famous x reader author on a fanfic site)

Nyx

Nyx is Yuna's best friend!! She's kinda the contrast to Yuna, being a known cosplayer on Instagram since Yuna and Nyx comes from our world.

She doesn't get involved with the twst world itself but she's incredibly important to Yuna, since she was the one who would always encourage her when she thought she couldn't do something.

She's best known for her cosplays of Azul and Jade because, though her reasoning to frequently cosplaying Azul is because of Yuna who adores him (and the fact Nyx wants nothing more than the person she loves to be happy)

Yuna and Nyx's story are heavily intertwined even though Yuna is stuck in twisted wonderland and Nyx is back home in our world.

Vicus & Arena

I haven't gotten around to drawing them yet (still stuck in dress up game prison 💔) they're twins based on the glass slippers from Cinderella!

Vicus is named after the Latin word for quartz! Since clear quartz bares a resemblance to glass and quartz itself is used in the making of watches (a reference to the limited time Cinderella had to spend at the ball)

Arena's name comes from the Latin word for sand since it's the main component used in making glass. Her name also greatly resembles the name Aranea, which means spider (since when safety glass breaks, it creates a spider web effect inside the glass)

The twins have a very complicated family relationship, their blood father left passed, to which their mother got remarried. But then her stepfather turned out to be cheating on her with his mistress. They got divorced and compromised by separating the twins as both parents stilled loved the children so dearly. Vicus stayed with his mother while Arena was taken in by her stepfather and mistress.

To put it simply : theyre long lost twins! They were separated at age 4 and reunite as second years albeit they clash in terms of personality

Vicus goes to RSA, he's sweet, a big believer and a bit clumsy. He's always helping people and taking care of others. He doesn't seem to care much about his appearance and yet is always so well dressed (his reasoning is simple, his mother taught him to)

Arena... Well much like her family, everything about her is complicated. She attend NRC despite it being an all boys school. Why you may ask? Her stepmother's bargaining of course. Her home life wasn't bad but it wasn't exactly intimate either.

Her stepfather is never at home, always on a business trip and her stepmother whom while did love her was strict and in her mind knew what's best for her daughter. This cause Arena to grow with the mindset she has now today, "to be the best of the best, better than everyone else, better than the me before."

For obvious reasons, she's been placed in Pomefiore and greatly admires Vil. Many people mistake her admiration for romantic interest, but in truth Arena simply wants to be like Vil.

Unlike her long lost brother, Arena is snarky and at times a bit self centered. She has no time to interact with strangers and people who are lesser to her much less unworthy of her presence, only circling herself around strong and powerful figures like Vil and many of the Dorm and Vice Dorm leaders.

Knowing that, she's definitely jealous of Epel. Why choose someone who seemed so unwilling to work for Vil when she's right here?!?! She'd do ANYTHING. to be closer to Pomefiore's queen, even if it meant getting her hands dirty

[mutopians]

i know most twst oc/yuu intro posts have art involved, but i’m more of a writer and don’t feel like drawing my twst oc right now, so here’s a list of what my shameless self-insert would be like:

name is tbd, but i used rose for my genshin insert and i’d probably use that as a placeholder here

rose basically replaces yuu in the game, so she’s off to the ramshackle dorm thanks to having 0 magic. she has a cat back home and thinks it’s stupid that grim can’t be a formal student because he’s not human, so she decides that 1) she’s going to help grim be the best magician ever and 2) that she’s going to make sure they both have an awesome time at NRC.

the one problem with this plan is that grim keeps getting in trouble and everyone keeps overblotting, but that’s fine. this is fine. everything is fine.

(she’s totally like 5 minutes away from a panic attack but shhh)

also this poor nerd has no intentions of doing the magishift stuff but if grim wants it ?? god shes going to make sure he can do it.

rose doesn’t exactly keep her gender secret, but it took a good day or two before crowley was like “hey want a female uniform??” and rose was like “nah” because pants for the win baby

they did have to alter some of the uniform tho because the pants were too long and she couldn’t get her arms all the way through the sleeves, but it could be worse.

rose hates conflict and hates getting into trouble. her secret goal is to get ace and grim to stop causing problems, but she’s not getting that far with it. grim is definitely the worse of the two offenders.

she hates the smell of tuna but she makes a sacrifice for grim and always has a few cans on her. gotta keep your bff from getting hungry!!

speaking of best buds, she and the ghosts are killing it. it helps that she impulsively cleaned the entire ramshackle dorm the first weekend after riddle overblotted. it makes the place feel more comfy and friendly c:

i have no idea how she finds this out, but rose somehow discovers that everyone keeps excluding malleus from dorm head meetings :( :(

her first meeting with him is still on the outskirts of the dorm and she probably doesn’t learn his name then, but seeks out malleus later and is like “!!” when she realizes it’s her bud. she offers a quiet corner of the dorm for him to hang out in and they become friends. i know nothing about malleus but found family for the win

as a last note, she’s 100% aware of disney. she’s like me and didn’t always watch it growing up, but she knows the stories. she’s played kingdom hearts. she’s referenced knowing the stories to the twst cast, but has stubbornly refused to tell them their school is the one with the villains.

she’s come so so so close to telling grim tho. if it wasn’t for the fact that she was sure he would accidentally blurt it out and feel horrible about, you know, being an outcast in a totally different way, she would have told him already.

oh !! as a real last note, i have 0 intentions of rose being romantically involved with any of the characters. it’s totally platonic. but she will have several best friends, the closest of all being grim.

[janethepegasus]

During Beanfest, NRC’s version of the Happy Beans Day holiday, no one would suspect that Jane, the only girl attending an all-boys school and who is seemingly semi-social, would become an absolute BEAST during the game.

The biggest example of this (which surprisingly didn’t get her banned from the game) is what started off as Jamil’s ambush quickly spiraled into a bean massacre. Jane was shooting beans at any monster in her sights, mass chaos ensued and both Monsters and Farmers were running for their lives, even Jane’s group, Cater, Jade, and Grim, were hiding from the battle, hopelessly listening to students screaming and running around.

Vil’s group came to the scene when they heard the botanical gardens’ window crack, upon arriving they see a swarm of Farmers and Monsters rushing out the door to avoid the bloodshed. Once they managed to get inside, they see the maniacally laughing Jane shooting down all Monsters in the area, they were shocked and horrified by the scene (except Floyd who was just rooting for Jane)

[janethepegasus]

Telling Malleus about Digimon

Jane: So it’s like your Gao Gao Dragon-Kun game but you raise these monsters made out of data called Digimon! You start with an egg, then it hatches into its Fresh form then it later Digivolves into its In-Training form. After that whatever it Digivolves to later on depends on how you raise it…

Malleus: 8Oc

[janethepegasus]

(TW/ Decapitation)

An out of control Grim runs through STYX, taking down any escaped Phantoms and consuming blot crystals. Though it seems the more blot he consumes, the more vicious and powerful he becomes, the Grim Jane once knew is slowly fading away.
