Disclaimer; My works will oftentimes include mature and/or dark themes. Although I will try to avoid presenting them in a way that encourages or romanticizes such things to the best and most honest of my capabilities. If you've read the edited post on my first Masterlist,this would probably make more sense. I hope it's met with decency if not kindness,I understand if it is not. Thank you for reading this ❤️

♦️A house-husband AU in which Cater Diamond navigates his life at home while fighting the overwhelming feelings he's convinced will ruin the one thing he's ever let himself have.
Disclaimer; this story handles themes of grief, unhealthy hyper-fixation of love, attachment issues, depression, eating disorders and thoughts of self-harm and harming others (all inward,never outward).

Guest tag: @reirei404 (sorry in advance,fam.)
One: In the beginning,it was like a movie.
Cater Diamond had been married for three years now. It was something—An achievement, as he often had to remind himself—which still felt immensely surreal to him. Then again, the Overblot fever outbreak which wiped out half the population of Twisted Wonderland was also something he couldn't believe had actually happened.
Still, he never even dreamt of marriage. Let alone being the one in charge of the household while his breadwinning wife did all the heavy lifting (figuratively but also sometimes literally since she didn't like him doing all the physical work by himself.) So, yes, the outbreak which killed a bunch of people was something he probably shouldn't undermine but Cater Diamond had been married for three years and that should definitely be more important than focusing on the really negative events of the world in which he could not change.
"Hi, baaaby!" Cater called out in a slight tune from the kitchen as he heard the front door open and the sounds of Yuu's footsteps. He wiped his hands on the hanging cloth near the open archway, adjusted his 'Kiss me!' apron he'd gotten online last week and hurried out to greet his wife.
When Yuu looked up as she took off her shoes at the entryway,she beamed at him and warmth spread across his chest.
"Wow,I don't remember hiring such a cute chef." Yuu said as she placed her shoes aside and stepped onto the landing which still kept her from being fully inside. Cater's eyes briefly took the way her socked feet were aligned almost perfectly along that line and it unsettled him that she didn't cross it yet.
"You kinda look like my husband." Yuu's words snapped him back to reality and Cater, despite the churning in his stomach and the way his hands itched to pull her to him, grinned coyly at her.
"That'll make my seduction a lot easier, actually."
Yuu blew out an amused sound at that before she laughed and went straight to embrace him. Cater came forward to catch her; the eagerness in which he spread his arms and wrapped them around her allowing another emotion to surface once she nuzzled into him and he buried his nose into her hair. In that split second, he felt how his hands would grip at her until his nails dug into her skin, blooming red trickling out. How it would be so easy to grab the back of her head so he could tilt her head back and sink his teeth into her throat. The taste of her on his tongue bittersweet.
Cater blinked and the images flooded away from his mind and when he looked down, there was only Yuu who stared up at him expectantly.
"Aren't you going to give me a welcome back kiss?" She said, almost too shyly. As if they had never kissed before. It sent a terrible ache into his heart.
Cater smiled, gentle and with all the love he could muster out of himself.
"The apron says you have to kiss me, actually." He pulled away enough so she could see the writing on the apron.
Yuu laughed again. The sound so full of life, Cater wondered what type of silence would it leave behind if she ever died.
He couldn't remember the way his mother and sisters laughed anymore. The last time he heard any of their voices was through a phone call just before they died.
Cater drew in a breath the same time Yuu went to slide her hand behind the nape of his neck. As she drew him down so their lips would meet, Cater saw the flickering images of her bloodied body before he closed his eyes and kissed her back.
"I'm telling you, Trey, you're probably a bit too intimidating is all. Try to chill a bit."
A little while after Yuu returned, she'd gotten the urge to go out for a quick jog and invited Cater to join, but the idea didn't appeal to him and so he told her he'd work on an early dinner for when she came back.
Yuu had looked disappointed but she kissed him on his cheek and went off anyway.
Now, as he flipped the flat bread he'd made earlier in the day on the pan, his phone tucked between his ear and shoulder, he was doing his best to give some marital advice to his close friend Trey Clover who had recently gotten married to his childhood friend slash neighbor.
On the other side, he could hear a sigh of disbelief before Trey spoke.
"Intimidating? I think that's a first for me..," Cater could tell he was running a hand over his face,glasses pushed up slightly as he did so just from the sound of his friend's voice.
He smiled sympathetically even when Trey couldn't see him.
"Well, you do have a tendency to be just a liiiiiitle too mushy, maybe that gives her the jitters?" Cater took in the smell of the crisp bread before he slid it onto a plate. The way it looked so perfect made his chest swell up with pride.
"You're saying I love-bomb her too much? I didn't think that was ever a bad thing. You two seem happy to do it."
"Uh,yeah, but your wifey is like a complete introvert,Trey. For all you know, she gets overwhelmed before she can feel anything else." And that was still putting it nicely. Cater had met Trey's wife once before they married but she left an impression on him from how quiet and reclusive she was. To think Trey had been around her since his childhood was surprising even to Cater.
And that was back before the outbreak happened. He wasn't really sure how to even wonder what she was like now.
"I don't want to make this anymore difficult for her than it already is,Cater." Trey's words were somber and struck a chord in him, so after placing a new flatbread on the pan and letting it fry on one side for a couple of minutes, Cater flipped it over and brought his hand away from the pan's handle so he could hold his phone.
"I mean, you've known her your whole life,right?"
"We were neighbours since we were kids,yeah, but we didn't exactly spend every day together. She was scared of boys then. We got a bit closer when our folks decided to do a booth together at the weekly town market."
Cater cocked his head to the side as he put out the stove's fire and clumsily grabbed the bread with his fingers to plop it down onto the same plate earlier. He cringed at the heat his fingers had to endure but hummed delightfully when he licked them and tasted the rose oil and salt he used to lather on the bread.
"Her parents baked too?" He asked.
There was a slight pause before Trey answered.
"No, they did handmade crafts. You could buy one pastry and get one complimentary craft with it. They weren't doing so well on their own so my folks thought they'd help. It was a little better after that since word got around their stuff wasn't just nice to look at but super durable too." There was a painstakingly strong sense of nostalgia behind his words then, that it made Cater feel as if he knew exactly how her parents were like. What they looked like and how warm they must've been.
"...Has she mentioned them to you? I mean, you know about their..." Cater's voice trailed off at that moment,uncertain how to go about the topic and as if he sensed it, Trey sighed and though he did his best to sound like it didn't wear him down, Cater could hear the grief behind his words.
"No,she hasn't. Can't mention them any time sooner and I won't until she does it herself. Their deaths aren't mine to excavate...and that includes her grief too."
"Geez,Trey, if I was a girl and not crazy over my wife, I think I would've been so down bad for you. Like, okay Mr. Sensitivity, please don't seduce me with your sense of compassion and patience or my clothes are gonna fall off."
"Cater,Great Sevens, you're unbelievable."
It was dismissal to say the least but Cater didn't want Trey feeling so down and plus, it was a bit uncomfortable to talk about someone else's dead parents. He knew Trey would get it anyway so Cater smiled to himself.
"She'll get around eventually." He said optimistically just as he heard the familiar click of the front door as it unlocked.
"Fingers crossed." Trey said and then Cater ended the call with a quick but supportive goodbye.
He stuffed his phone into his jean's back pocket, double checked the plating for the flatbreads and then brought it out along with the homemade dipping he kept in the fridge.
Yuu was in the middle of wiping the side of her neck with the hand towel Cater gave her for her birthday last year and the sight of the embroidered initial of her name which he took months to get it right sent an exuberant thrill down his spine which struck him in the chest too when she caught his gaze and smiled at him.
"Why are you having heart eyes?" Yuu asked, playfully. She folded the hand towel in two and placed it on the back of their couch once she was finished with it, a slightly heavy gleam in her eyes when Cater arched his brows innocently.
"Heart eyes? What? I'm just having normal eyes now,babe."
The edges of her lips twitched but then she shifted her attention on the plate in his hands. Her expression softened but it was also unreadable and suddenly Cater was fighting the urge to not freeze up.
"Just one plate again?" She sounded so tender, so,so very careful. His uneasiness grew.
"What? You don't like sharing with me? Boo hoo, I thought we were bonding." He moved as he talked, effortlessly placing the plate onto the dining table before he came to wrap his arms around Yuu's waist. He leaned in before she could say anything and kissed her so deeply that when it ended, her cheeks were flushed and her body hummed pleasantly against his.
Cater smiled down at her,lips pouting and eyes alight with a clear intent to drown out her silly little worries.
Yuu licked her bottom lip,dazed rather than flirty, and her eyes were earnestly conflicted but Cater knew he just needed a little more pushing to keep her away from thinking too much.
"Oh,baby." He cooed, one hand pressing behind the small of her back while the other came to tilt her chin up.
"I like sharing meals with you." Cater purred and watched keenly as the emotions flickered about in her eyes; worry,doubt,and most painfully,love. Oh, how she loves him. Cater didn't deserve it. But it was his. So he would take it as selfishly as he could.
"I know and I do too." Yuu said, smiling at him again. Her arms came to settle around his waist and she even pulled him in closer. But then her gaze shifted to the plate on their dining table and when he caught the way the thoughts formed in her eyes then, Cater imagined gouging them out. Not because he hated them. No. Never. Never because of hate but because it hurt too much to see how much love she had for him.
"But you haven't eaten a portion for yourself in weeks." He could just hear the words come out of her so clearly but before they did, he leaned down and kissed her.
Again and again and again until she could do nothing but melt into his affections.
Capri Notes;
So, this was unannounced lmao. I didn't include this in the previous list cause I was unsure about posting it, but I think it's okay. Cater has always been my favorite to write with angst, he just seems to invite it, you know? I have a thought about making it a series with some other handpicked characters but we'll see. It'll be a short series though, preferably with a happy end so don't worry.
Frankly if I was Yuu I couldn't help but mess with the twst cast and tell them wild lies about my world, cause what are they going to do? Check for themselves? I would probably show them pictures of the giant spiders from Harry Potter and say there is a species of spiders that have developed a taste for human fresh and only a sacrifice each year stops them from eating the humanity and then watch the boys horrified faces.
😭 actually this is such a fucking great idea.
Atp you could tell them Harry Potter, Percy Jackson and Aang are real people and whatever happened to them were set in different timelines of human history.
"What are they going to do? Check themselves?" EXACT-FUCKING-LY like DAMN this awakened a new sense of chaotic energy as someone who loves Otherworlder Yuu tbh.
You know what would be a FANTASTIC addition to this? By telling them the reason you're in Twisted Wonderland is because You were banned from earth due to public fear.

What RSA students hold during battles isn't actually a sword, it's a baton (a conductor's baton).
It's an item that's separate from their magic-stone brooch meant to reinforce their visual theme, and it allows for more customization in appearance than a magical pen.
Trein uses the same brooch-style magic stone as RSA, since I imagined both following a traditional style. (source)
Crewel also carries a rod, but he wears his magic stone dangling from a strap, giving off a flashier impression (his personal taste takes priority over tradition).
Vargas's bracelet is also just his own personal preference.
I imagine that once they're adults they're free to design their magic stones however they like, so it might be fun to think about how the students will customize theirs in the future. (source)
Also, Idia's magic stone is set in a magical device, but he probably did receive a standard magical pen when he first enrolled.
He just took it apart on his own and went all out on modifying it. What a troublemaker. (source)
