#we didn't swap the backstories of esther and mick because it seemed like too much trouble

[technically-human]

hi :) i hope you don't mind all the asks about which characters are switched in the reversed universe, if you do feel totally free to disregard this. but i was wondering, are the cat king and esther switched? also, perhaps monty and simon? i would love your thoughts. thank you :)

I don't mind at all, please keep them coming!

There are certain characters that we decided wouldn't be swapped, such as everyone's parents, the sprites, David the demon and Simon, although some things do change to better fit the story.

For example, David was never dating Niko. He offered her friendship, maybe pretended to have someone he loved. Niko is not dumb, but she is heartbroken and lonely since her dad died, so she allows him to possess her.

Simon is still the one who lead the boys who killed Edwin. He was, indeed... In love? with him, but he took it way too far. I don't think we can redeem this one guys.

Monty is swapped with the Cat King, so Thomas is actually Mick's (yeah, Mick) familiar. His attempts at seduction are way too forward for Edwin though. And Monty is... I suppose the Crow King? He's a lot more charming, but still doesn't entirely work on Edwin, so he ends up trapping him, oops.

Esther is a woman who was granted immortality but won't stop aging. She has accepted this and is now running a magic shop. She will complain to anyone who's willing to listen.

And Tragic Mick? He's willing to sacrifice whatever and whoever it takes to become a walrus again.
