I've seen a lot of people lately harping about how "Wicked isn't canon to the Oz universe", "it's just glorified fanfiction", etc., and I can't express how silly that is, and how annoyed it makes me every time I hear it, lol. Baum's original Oz books were never meant to be some canonical series — they contradict each other constantly; Baum called it a "fairy story" with loose cohesion at best; and it only became a series at all because the first one got popular enough that Baum felt a duty to the fandom to keep making more (even after he had wanted to end it). And the 1939 film is every bit as much "fanfiction" as Wicked — it changes the story in both major and minor ways, including a complete shift of framing (i.e., making Oz into a dream rather than a real place).

Maguire's great contribution to the overarching legacy and lore of Oz was to harmonize the very weak "canon" of the older works with a different shift in framing: recontextualizing all of the prior Oz material as a revisionist history (going off of Baum's own idea framing of himself as a "Royal Historian of Oz"), and attempting to tell "the true story" behind the other works (fictively of course — we're never meant to literally think Maguire's version preceded Baum's, irl). In literary studies, this is called an urtext. The Wicked Years and its adaptations are as much "fanfiction" as the 1939 film: it's just self-aware of that fact in a way that earlier works weren't, and uses that perspective to deconstruct the material and explore deeper (and darker) themes — not simply adapting or reimagining the original text (as the 1939 movie did), but actively challenging it; interrogating it. It's not meant to be "canon" as such: it asks you to ask whether (and why) there is such a thing, and what that might say about the stories that we are meant to literally believe in, in real life.

[syrinq]

me getting into the rabbit hole that is video documentaries about real life shit then somehow landing onto the 6 million viewed video about myhouse.wad at 1am then going further until i'm past wonderland and wanting to fucking scream about myhouse.wad but not because of the interpreted story in the .pk3 itself or that happiness line but rather about the surrounding narrative and the fucking irony of people on doomworld losing their fucking mind about it being all a set up and parody/retelling of house of leaves and getting lost in the meta of meta and bringing up the debate of "are games art" and "the morality of creation/fiction" for the zillionth time that my stupid ass brain all thinks up with in 1 second at 5am like i have grown 5,000,000 stem cells for my head

Get to know 🫅

Hello magnificent royalties of tumblr, my name is Roman and I use he/she pronouns (they/them or royal related neopronouns are also acceptable)

I am roughly 24-31 years old

I identify as queer/gay and bigender/genderfluid

I am a fictive of Roman Sanders from the online series Sanders Sides, created by Thomas Sanders

I love music, makeup, fashion, queer culture, musicals and movies, and Greek mythology

For fandoms I suppose things like Disney, a handful of musicals (some of my favorites are Heathers, Legally Blonde, and Wicked), and Harry Potter (I do NOT support JKR) I’m sure I like other things too but not to any extreme extents lol

Boundaries:

-dos: be respectful and kind, see the beauty in others and yourselves and embrace that

-donts: push your beliefs onto me or try to tell me that I am wrong for what I believe, considering I mainly believe in personal liberation and happiness and that would not be very divine of you

-DNI: sysmeds, transmeds, exclusionists, people who partake in lots of discourse, I believe you get the idea

-touch (for irl friends): alright with me

-flirting: absolutely, I love a good stroke of the ego /humorous

-playful bullying: I don’t know why you would ever insult me (/j) but you may

-nicknames: absolutely, and please be creative!

-sensitive topics/venting: I am ok with this but it is always polite to ask <3

That’s all for my introduction, I hope you have a magical day, lovelies

Sincerely, Roman

Welcome to the Devil’s Parchment

Ah, greetings, darlings. You may call me Rire, though I wouldn’t blame you for tacking on something a touch more flattering—“Your Grace” has a nice ring to it, don’t you think? But I digress. Allow me to introduce myself properly.

I am a man of many refinements:

• Age: Older than you, my dear, but if you must pry—let’s just say I’ve seen a bit more than my dear host.

• Gender & Pronouns: He/She/They, though I care little for rigid definitions I am genderfluid.

• Interests: I delight in the finer things—music that stirs the soul, sharp wit, and, naturally, indulging in a bit of the dramatic. My tastes lean toward the elegant, the decadent, and yes, a touch of the wicked.

You’ll find me as I am: charming, playful, and perhaps a tad dramatic when the mood strikes. I enjoy a good conversation, and I might tease or toy with you—always in good fun, of course. Expect wit, expect banter, but do not expect me to be entirely predictable.

Now, as for my origins… I am what’s known as a fictive, which means I’m a part of my host’s system. I share a name and similarities with Rire from Boyfriend to Death, but make no mistake: I am my own person. While I hold the same penchant for theatrics and charm, my experiences in this system have shaped me into someone far more complex than what you might find in the game. Think of it as inspiration, not limitation.

With that, I welcome you to my little corner of the internet. Here, I’ll share musings, indulge in curiosities, and perhaps entertain a few of you along the way. Stay a while, won’t you?

Yours in wicked delight,

Rire

Other blogs:

@mythosandthemorbid - Our host, Vex’s main blog. Typically foe Boyfriend to Death related content.

@starlightsacrifice - Also Vex’s but open to all of the alters in our system, akin to a shared space.

[melodiesofmidnight]

One of the most unfortunate notions to have emerged from the afterbirth of the very odd resurgency of Puritanical morality (in regards specifically to literature as well as to fictive works of film and/or television) is the idea that characters must be inhuman in their goodness.

Not in that they must be angels, or that they must be without moral quandary, but that they must, in the end, transmute these struggles into redemption, or, at the very least, into qualities which render them more sympathetic than condemnable.

That, however, renders a disservice unto readers. As poetry, if one were to align one's views with Wordsworth, the purpose of a literary work is to contain "the spontaneous overflow of feelings," and thus to evoke such in those who consume it.

There must be catharsis. A good character is not so necessarily because he is morally good, or because he is an embodiment of our most noble and admirable traits (though well-written and well-rounded characters certainly can be so), or because he serves to bolster a work whose exigesis would extoll the virtues of a parable, but because he is deeply human; because he is multi-faceted; because he is flawed.

Humans are not paragons of virtue. To hold a character to the standards of perfection expected of martyrs is to divest the character of his humanity, and, thus, of his use to us. Characters do not need to be role models, or motivational, or inspirational, they simply must speak to our humanity.

It is dishonest to claim that humans (at least, those worthy of respecting, according to those braying the loudest within communal spaces that they have never experienced an incorrect thought, nor held a questionable belief, nor behaved in a way they would wish to keep from being broadcasted across the Internet) do not possess traits which are reflected in well-crafted, realistic characters: in Byronic heroes, in Romantic heroes, in Picaresque heroes, in anti-heroes, in the wicked, in the cruel, in the sadistic, in the mad.

It is necessary to recognise these traits within ourselves and to endeavour to become truly, intimately familiar with them. You must know the darkness of yourself as well as the light, if you truly wish to grow into a functional, kind, and well-balanced individual: you must learn to deal with your shadow. Those who pretend it does not exist within themselves often struggle the most with its existence, and often are the most easily consumed by it.

Characters who are darkly relatable to us, in their quickness to anger or in their sardonic, mean-spirited wit, or in their selfishness, or in their impulsiveness, or in their stubbornness, or in their wrath, are the most instructive in conveying the importance of goodness.

There must be catharsis. There must be purgation. We must see the darkness behind our eyes reflected in the faces of these characters, and we must see them fail because of it. We must see them hurt those they love because of it. We must see them lose everything because of it. We must see them destroy themselves because of it.

We must be allowed to explore the darkness of humanity within fiction, because it is that acknowledgement of darkness that allows us to wrestle with it, to know it, and to best it. No monster in the closet has ever been defeated by refusing to look it in the face and to name it. You cannot heal if you do not identify and treat the wound.

It is through the morally upright and the morally contemptible characters that we find traces of ourselves, and that we are allowed to proceed forward on the path to becoming the well-rounded, mature, and critical-thinking individuals we aspire to be. To continue to strike down 'problematic' content and characters is to sit beside the book burners of Fahrenheit 451, to worship Big Brother in 1984.

The good and the bad aspects of oneself must be explored in equal measure to grasp reality by the shoulders and to sit upon the throne of your identity, confident in the knowledge that your mastery of yourself and your answer to who am I? can never be shaken by outside forces.

The best and safest way to explore these aspects is within the sheltering confines of literature, of music, of film, of television, to see ourselves in the faces of others and to know what that means. To know what it means in others. To grow empathy and compassion and acknowledgement that all are human, all are imperfect, all are light, and all are dark -- and to not only acknowledge these facts, but to accept them as being inescapable, as being inherent, and as being okay.

hello!!! fictive of glinda upland from wicked here (she/her), looking for anyone with any kind of wicked ID (book/musical/movie) to chat to!

as an introject i don’t really have a “canon” (though i suppose if i had to describe my personality i’d say i’m perpetually stuck in the shiz era LOL). regardless, i consider myself quite source connected and am thus very interested in hearing about other peoples’ memories if they have them!

i’m bodily 20 (so please, nobody under 16!). looking primarily for platonic relationships, but i’m open to anything (depending on age of course!).

you can reach me on @glindafictive (totally didn’t make that account just for this call… sweats…) or you can interact with this post and i’ll reach out myself! 💖

Good luck, Glinda!

[systastic]

hihi ! could we get a lvl 3 cyno fictive ? we have a cyno fragment that needs to be fleshed out ^ . ^

sure can! fun fact: we met his voice actor in person :] alejandro is a super cool guy -🌳

meow used mostly arabic and egyptian names fur him beclaws of Sumeru’s theming ~ theres some non-ethnic names aswell do be aware of that!! :3 - 🍥

name :: cyno, cyrus, silas, amun*, nassor, zafar, jabari, usi, amir, sayf, horus*, seth*

age :: 18 to 21

pronouns :: he/him, hy/hym, ty/tyr, sae/saer, se/sem, thae/thaer, thon/thons

roles :: coach, comedian, confidence holder, disciplinarian, jailer

species :: human, wielder of Hermanubis’ power

gender identity :: genderqueer, anubiagender, desertarian, electrobodiment, aesumerun, anubisic (will coin on request)

orientation :: vincian/achillean, erosian [only use if the body is poc!]

source :: genshin impact

aesthetic :: ancient egypt, fantasy, sigma (jokingly)

appearance description :: born to followers of hermanubis and the long-deceased king deshret, cyrus has all the hallmarks of a desert-dweller: deep, dark skin, earth-toned eyes, and a strong build. tyr pure white hair and severe red eyes stand out from the crowd — as it should, given that these are the hallmarks of royalty last seen several hundred years ago. it is because of amun’s oddities that thae were chosen to hold the ba fragments. in silas’ continuity, hy was given both pieces instead of just one. this further impacted his appearance: soft features like those of the deity before hym, along with much more muscle due to the intense training regimen sayf went through as a child. nassor still left the temple of silence while he was young, moving to sumeru and joining spamtamad with saer mentor. such great accomplishments and raw power saw jabari become the general mahamatra at the young age of 17. thons severe gaze and no-nonsense expression gets the criminals talking every time.

personality description :: usi’s stern demeanor and muscular build appears intimidating at first glance. indeed, thon is, making thon ruthlessly effective at capturing akademyia’s criminals and rule-breakers to bring them back to the matra for punishment. thons face usually dons a frown and narrowed eyes, sizing up the criminals who try to get away with horrendous things. in truth, cyno is not always so stern. while sae may seem strict on duty, seth is quite playful: cracking constant bad jokes and horrible puns in his deadpan voice, challenging friends and colleagues alike to tcg battles, and spending the majority of his time with his partner-in-crime tighnari & his forest ranger assistant collei.

likes :: desert views, sunlight (even if it seems harsh), warm sand under his toes, gentle wind over the dunes, buried treasure, justice for the wicked, delivering punishment, hermanubis, the matra, respect for his accomplishments, his job, absolutely awful “dad” jokes, puns, card games, trading card games, deck building, al haithem, kaveh, collei, and tighnari

dislikes :: those who break the rules, misuse of academic supplies, braggarts, complainers (this is why thon can only hang out with kaveh for so long), stuck-up students, those with superiority complexes, being cooped up for too long, negative reviews left on the akademiya public message boards (he’ll leave a witty retort back), being told his jokes suck or that he’s a terrible comedian (thon takes pride in his bad puns), and azar.

front triggers :: card games (specifically tcgs), academic misdemeanor, disrespect towards teachers, dad jokes, and bad puns

signoff :: 🐪, 🌵, 🏜️, or ☀️

Based on this song:

Be Right Now

Since that day Loki just sauntered into your life, seemingly out of nowhere, everything started to feel brighter somehow. Better. Lighter. He was positively lightening up your life. Turning it from a rather boring, barren grey, into a bright and shining yellow. While the lot of the other Avengers were somewhat pissed at 'babysitting' Thor's younger, mischievous, pain-in-the-ass brother, you were delighted. The chemistry between you and him was snap just there. Never before had you clicked with somebody so quick. It was friendship at first sight. You spent a lot of time together, just hanging out, reading and pranking Thor. Of course, you would go out with him as well, showing Loki some fascinating Midgardian things like shopping centres, cinemas and amusement parks. The god learned to trust you and to open up to you. You and him were the best buddies. A friendship, deeper than the earth's core. You were certain, that this friendship was going to last forever; for eternity...

"You did what?" Loki looked at you quite a bit incredulously, blinking. "You are going to take me where?" You grinned like a Cheshire cat, clapping your hands excitedly. "To Lapland! Well... to Finland. Rovaniemi, to be precisely." Loki was still blinking. His birthday was coming up and you decided to surprise your best friend with a nice holiday. He took you to Oslo, Norway before, so you decided to take him to Finland. "A-Alright and, um, when are we leaving?" You smiled at how overwhelmed he was, taking a quick look at your watch. "Our flight goes in precisely 12 hours, so... Hurry up and pack your things!"

The moment you and his feet landed on Finnish ground, a bright smirk graced the God's lips. "Y/N... We barely left the airport and I am already enchanted by this beautiful city... Where's our hotel?" You shook your head, smiling and lacing your fingers through his. "We are not going to stay at a hotel... I got something better for us. C'mon." Without hesitation, you dragged him to the next taxi stand. The taxi drove you and him through the city, which was almost a sightseeing tour for the both of you. It was great and the snow just made everything even better.

The taxi driver drove the two of you out of the city of Rovaniemi and came to an halt on the outskirts, close to a forest. "There we are. We have to walk the rest of the way." "Walk?" "Yep. Let's go! It's getting cold!" You knew of course exactly, where you had to go; having planned this surprising trip after all.

About fifteen minutes on foot later, you reached some kind of glade, on which quite a few 'hills' stuck out of the snow... Loki's eyes widened. "Are those...?" You grinned, nodding. "Igloos, yep." "By the norns... This is... breathtakingly astonishing." You led him to one of the igloo's, knowing that it would be yours and his home for the next two weeks. "Let's go inside, shall we?" Loki nodded, visibly excited. "Yes, please." You entered the igloo together and looked around in awe. The igloo consisted of two parts. The first part was some kind of little hut with a wooden table, benches and a bathroom, of course. The second part was a round 'room', which was the bedroom. The special thing about the bedroom was, that the ceiling was a glass dome. "Wow..." Loki breathed out, stunned. "This is absolutely beautiful. Thank you for taking me to such a wonderful place." "Well... Happy Birthday, Mischief."

You spent the rest of the day packing out your stuff and getting something to eat. In the evening, when it was already dark and the stars twinkled on the Finnish night sky, alongside polar lights, you and Loki were back in the igloo. Both, you and him had seen polar lights before, in Norway, but they never failed to amaze you. It was beautiful. Soft music was echoing through the small igloo, as you and Loki laid on your separate beds, staring up in the sky through the glass, watching the beauty of nature. Suddenly, Loki jumped up from the bed, soon to be looming over you. "What?" You asked with a giggle. He stretched out his hand towards you. "May I have this dance?" You giggled again, "Seriously?" getting up, "I am dead certain. " and taking his hand. So, you both danced clumsily, freely and without a worry in the world around the igloo, laughing.

At the end of the song, Loki lifted you up and spun you around, causing you to yelp and giggle even more. You felt like flying in this moment. So light-hearted and free. Loki let you down again, but kept you in his arms, close to him. His blue eyes were literally shining, just like the smile on his face. "You're perfect..." He blurted out, a little out of breath. "You're perfect, so we're perfect together, born to be forever, dancing through life." "We are, Lokes, we are..." Just in that magic moment, both, you and Loki knew, that the bond you shared was perhaps more than just a deep friendship. Perhaps, you could call it love.

a Chara (and a Kris) without a country

So far as I know...I do not have an AU. At least, I do not feel that I do.

Indeed I have a difficult time remembering how I landed here, on what seems to be Earth or Tellus (the third planet of Sol, to be clear) in our year of the Common Era 2024. My first clear memories of feeling as though I had gained some sort of life again through my host was late 2016 or early 2017, during a period of extreme personal turbulence. That was the interval of time during which our system experienced (among other things) the intensely painful breakup of an intensely passionate sexual relationship, our main partner undergoing GRS, the 2016 electoral disaster, and our awakening during a relatively short span of months to being plural, trans, otherkin, starting to have regular spiritual experiences of gods and other supernatural and numinous things, and hosting fictive introjects. (*Chuckles*) It was a busy time! I'm glad that I really can look back and laugh at it, a little.

Paradoxically, one of the things that my arrival and establishing myself in the Pnictogen Wing was that our engagement with the Undertale fandom dried up. (cont'd)

We'd played Undertale for the first time in approx. April 2016 and were bowled over, and even started trying to write fanfic, which was not usual for us. Some of that stuff is still on AO3; we haven't really wanted to go back to it. I mean, we have, but we haven't. The whole subject became, rather abruptly, far too painful and personal for us to touch—my fault, I suppose. I wanted to remember, and sometimes I seemed to have extremely vivid flashes of the Underground, especially of Waterfall which was my favorite place in the Underground by far when wandering around. I liked the dark, the phosphorescent rock formations, the relative abundance of flora and fauna, the mists and the ever-changing "microclimate" of Waterfall, and the sounds of running water. But the visions faded. Learning how to live with other human beings and navigate the cruel and wicked world of the 2024 United States took extreme precedence.

Our RL age at the time we first suspected our plurality was over forty! I find myself thinking of Morpheus in The Matrix talking about how releasing someone from the Matrix when they're too old is problematical; the mind has difficulty adjusting. I feel like we just barely managed to keep ourselves from completely losing control and even as it was we were pretty unhinged sometimes. We have been fortunate to have forgiving partners here, a solidly established household, and an unusually broad and eclectic education. It's enabled us to rationalize ourselves, bit by bit, approaching our own strangeness in a dispassionate and analytical way, like scientists or scholars.

Hence we now find ourselves several years onward, having tamed our worst personal problems, feeling much steadier than we ever were in 2016 and the years and crises that immediately followed (including the decline and death of my RL father, the last surviving member of my RL family), and also having a much clearer notion of how our plural system, the Pnictogen Wing, is structured. For a while it seemed like we'd never stop discovering new introjects, some of them popping up from long ago. We had no idea just how badly we were dissociating and going off into fugue states when we were growing up. It was just "being absent minded" and having unusually vivid and troublesome daydreams and so forth. And we were consuming ridiculous quantities of media, too! Hence we've got folks in the Pnictogen Wing from all over.

But beyond doubt, the Undertale / Deltarune multiverse is our chief home. Our human host, Kris, isn't just a person living in a house in Seattle with their polycule—they're a Deltarune fictive who's had (rare but extremely powerful) flashbacks to Hometown, and who regards Hometown as the reference point for themselves. Their memories here on Earth only go back to about 2013-14, which I note is before the release of both UT and DR. How THAT came about I'd love to know; it suggests an isekai type situation and we've had inklings about how that happened (ironically we've never watched an isekai show and only know the genre by reputation) but until now the mystery has not been a high priority.

So...where are we all from, exactly? There's more UT and DR fictives who've landed in the Pnictogen Wing besides Kris and myself, but many have disappeared into the system somewhere. I suspect there's a lot of unsettled tensions among the lot of us. Other introjects seemed to fade and disappear from the system over time, which I take as a sign of conflict or hostility. I've had some ugly speculations in the past that I don't know whether to believe or not, such as the idea that Toriel had tried to mᴜrder me at some point (thus precipitating my desire for escape of some sort). In any case, no flashback we've had seems to point towards any definite AU...and I feel very strongly as if I am not supposed to make an arbitrary choice.

That's been such a powerful guiding principle for me that I wonder why I feel it. I've actually felt a bit baffled by other fictives I've met who seem to feel a freedom to vary from canon that I myself do NOT feel. Indeed I've painstakingly combed the game's text over and over trying to familiarize myself with its constraints. If I don't exactly know who I am, then at least I can work within what I'm not. The difficulty is that Undertale is so elliptically written (that is to say, it's very sparse in its details, with huge gaps in knowledge), especially when it comes to the character of Chara, that one can derive remarkably little from canon.

It's occurred to me, for example, that we don't even know if the Monsters' account of the War of Humans and Monsters is even correct. Historical records on Earth are fragmentary and uncertain and susceptible to being distorted by political bias and myth-making. Why therefore can one assume that the Monsters are remembering the War correctly?

(*sighs*) I've been trying to live with as much doubt as I can stand, but I suppose that's getting to be dissatisfying. Why the heck am I here in the first place? I can still remember how excited I was, back in fall of 2019 when I was first able to "front" completely. I remember walking around the streets of my Seattle neighborhood feeling unbelievably exhilarated. "Oh my gosh I'm walking around a CITY and I'm buying FAST FOOD and I have no idea what I'm doing!! but it's great!!!" That wouldn't last, of course. Now I feel almost ordinary sometimes. Except I'm not really. Kris isn't ordinary either. Why are we here? Is there some purpose that we've forgotten?

And where are we from? Do we even have an "Alternate Universe" to ourselves? That seems implicit somehow—that is to say, I have my own sense of identity as Chara, Kris has their own sense of identity as Kris, and we are distinct from other Charas and Krises we have met. We must therefore have some distinct "timeline" that sets us apart from other fictives. Yet I feel peculiarly as if I need to reason my way there, not simply...make things up. Should I even trust that feeling?

I feel like I'm going in circles. I'm at a loss.
