Hello, I saw your requests where open so I thought I would drop a suggestion. How would the Aduece duo handle a Yuu who came from a universe where Disney is a thing. trying and occasionally failing to keep their metaphysical knowledge secret?
I love this prompt so much 😭 Thank you for your submission Anony! This might not be exactly what you were looking for, but I thought this was so funny 😭 Ace is a blabber mouth.
Yuu had learned one very important rule after arriving in Twisted Wonderland.
Never.
Ever.
Reference Disney.
Unfortunately, that was much easier said than done.
"What's got you making that face?"
Ace plopped into the seat beside Yuu in the cafeteria, already stealing one of Grim's fries.
"HEY!"
Deuce sat across from them with his lunch.
Yuu stared blankly at their tray.
"...Nothing."
"Liar."
"I'm thinking."
"About?"
Yuu looked at Ace.
"...If I tell you something... you have to promise not to think I'm insane."
Ace grinned.
"Too late."
Deuce nodded earnestly.
"We'll listen."
Yuu hesitated.
"And you can't tell a soul.."
"Yeah, Yeah! We won't, hurry up Yuu!"
"...Where I come from..."
"...stories exist."
Ace blinked.
"...Okay?"
"No, like... stories about this world."
Silence.
"...What?"
Yuu rubbed their temples.
"I know this sounds ridiculous."
"It does."
"...The Great Seven..."
"They're historical figures," Deuce said.
"...In my world they're... fairy tale villains."
Ace snorted.
"...Good one."
"I'm serious."
"...So you're telling me..."
Ace leaned across the table.
"...that somewhere out there..."
"...there's a story about Riddle?"
"...Yes."
"And Leona?"
"...Yes."
"Azul?"
"...Yes."
"...Me?"
Yuu paused.
"..."
Ace frowned.
"...Why'd you pause?"
"...You don't have your own movie."
"..."
"..."
"...RUDE."
Naturally...
Ace couldn't keep his mouth shut.
"So!"
Ace announced dramatically in Heartslabyul's lounge.
"Apparently Riddle's famous."
Riddle looked up from his paperwork.
"...Excuse me?"
Ace pointed at Yuu.
"They say there's a story about someone just like you."
Yuu immediately buried their face in their hands.
"...Ace..."
"What?"
"I said not to tell.."
Riddle folded his arms.
"...Explain."
Yuu sighed.
"...There's a queen."
"...Go on."
"She's incredibly strict."
Riddle nodded.
"Reasonable."
"...She makes bizarre rules."
"...Necessary."
"...She screams 'Off with their heads!'"
Riddle's expression froze.
"..."
Ace slowly turned toward him.
"...You do say that."
"I do not."
"...You literally sentenced me yesterday."
"You broke Rule Two Hundred Eighty Nine!"
"You made Rule Two Hundred Eighty Nine five minutes before!"
"It was still a rule!"
"...So..."
Riddle looked back at Yuu.
"...How does this queen's story end?"
Yuu smiled awkwardly.
"..."
"...She's essentially loses. But it turns out she's entirely just a part of the main character's dream."
"..."
"..."
Ace exploded laughing.
Riddle's eye twitched.
"I refuse to believe that."
News spread.
Mostly because Ace spread it.
"So Leona!"
Ace called into the botanical gardens.
"Yuu says you're based on a lion."
Leona didn't even open his eyes.
"I am a lion."
"No, like..."
"...A specific lion."
"..."
Leona finally cracked one eye open.
"...Continue."
"...He's the villain."
"..."
"...He's got a nephew."
"..."
"...His brother becomes king."
Leona slowly sat up.
"...Who told you this?"
Yuu visibly considered digging a hole and living in it.
"No one."
"You just described my family."
"...Coincidence?"
"..."
Ruggie looked between them.
"...Boss?"
Leona's eyes narrowed.
"...Keep talking."
Yuu sighed.
"...He thinks the throne belongs to him."
"..."
"...Manipulates everyone around him."
"..."
"...Gets beaten by hyenas."
Silence.
Ruggie blinked.
"...Hyenas?"
Yuu immediately slapped a hand over their mouth.
"..."
Ruggie slowly looked at Leona.
"...Boss..."
"...Should I be offended?"
Leona groaned.
"...Leave it."
"...Wait."
Ruggie pointed.
"Hold on."
"You said hyenas."
"...Yes, Hyenas. Plural."
"..."
"...Meaning..."
He slowly pointed at himself.
"...I beat my Housewarden?"
"..."
"..."
"...Technically..."
"...Shishishishishi~"
Ruggie stared.
"..."
"...Really?"
"Well.. yeah, though I wouldn't recommend you try it. There were multiple hyenas in the story, and you're just.. one."
Leona barked out a laugh.
It only got worse.
Octavinelle.
Azul smiled pleasantly.
"So..."
"I've heard rumors."
Yuu wanted to disappear.
"..."
"They say you've heard stories about people resembling us."
"...Maybe."
Azul leaned forward.
"...What sort of story?"
"...Ocean."
"Mhm."
"...Sea witch."
"...Interesting."
"...Contracts."
"...Continue."
"...Straling the merprincess's voice.."
Azul froze.
"..."
"..."
"...Her voice..?"
Floyd burst out laughing.
Jade smiled politely.
"...Fascinating."
Azul adjusted his glasses.
"...I fail to see the resemblance."
Yuu looked directly at the eels.
"..."
Floyd grinned.
"...Go ahead."
"...The sea witch has two moray eels."
Floyd and Jade simultaneously looked at each other.
"..."
"..."
"...PFFFT."
Azul buried his face in his hands.
Scarabia.
Kalim practically bounced into the room.
"I heard there's one about us!"
"..."
Yuu looked at Jamil.
"...I'm sorry."
Jamil immediately sighed.
"...Why are you apologizing to me specifically?"
"...You'll see."
"..."
"...There's a royal sultan."
Kalim smiled.
"That sounds fun!"
"...He's incredibly nice."
"Aww!"
"...Kind."
"Yay!"
"...A little oblivious."
"..."
"..."
"...Fair."
Yuu turned toward Jamil.
"...And..."
"...There's his advisor."
Jamil's smile disappeared.
"..."
"...Who wants power."
"..."
"...Uses hypnosis."
"..."
"...Manipulates the sultan."
Long silence.
Kalim looked horrified.
"...Jamil would never—"
Jamil covered Kalim's mouth.
"...Don't."
"...Please don't finish that sentence."
"..."
"...Does he lose?"
Yuu nodded.
"...Yes."
Jamil sighed
"Yeah..Well, I won't."
Diasomnia.
This one...
This one was terrifying.
Because Malleus was genuinely interested.
"So."
He smiled.
"What story resembles me?"
Yuu swallowed.
"...Sleeping Beauty."
Silver blinked.
"...Why does that sound familiar?"
Yuu looked between all four of them.
"..."
"...Actually..."
"...All of you."
Sebek nearly fainted.
"...WHAT?!"
Lilia laughed.
"Oh?"
"...Continue."
"...There's a dragon."
Malleus nodded thoughtfully.
"...A fairy."
Lilia grinned.
"...Three fairies."
Sebek and Silver exchanged confused looks.
"...A princess who sleeps."
Silver immediately yawned.
"..."
"..."
"...Well."
"...That's unfortunate timing."
Silver fell asleep sitting upright.
Everyone stared.
Yuu slowly pointed.
"...See?"
Even Idia eventually cornered Yuu.
"So..."
"...Hypothetically."
"...What's mine?"
Yuu smiled.
"...God of the dead."
Idia fist pumped.
"LET'S GOOOO!"
"...Villain."
"..."
"...Still cool."
Ortho floated excitedly.
"I'm in it too?"
"You are."
"I win!"
"...Technically yes."
Ortho beamed.
Idia immediately looked offended.
"...Excuse me?"
Vil crossed one leg over the other, looking entirely too composed.
"I've heard there are stories involving us as well."
Yuu sighed.
"...Yes."
Neige clapped excitedly.
"Ooh! Really?"
Vil gave him a sidelong glance.
"...Do continue."
"...There's a queen."
Vil nodded.
"Naturally."
"...She's obsessed with being the fairest in the land."
"...Reasonable."
"...She has a magic mirror."
"...Convenient."
"...She poisons a girl with an apple for being more beautiful than her."
"....."
Neige blinked.
"...An apple?"
Vil rubs his temples
"That's what you're worried about?"
Yuu pointed at him.
"...You."
"...Me?"
"...You're based off of the girl."
Neige laughed.
"I don't think I'd look very good as a princess."
Vil's eyebrow twitched.
"...And the queen?"
Yuu looked anywhere but at him.
"...Would be you."
Another long silence.
Vil sighed dramatically.
"...I suppose I should be grateful."
Yuu blinked.
"...Grateful?"
"The queen is elegant. Intelligent. Regal."
He smiled, perfectly poised.
"...Though attempting murder over a beauty contest is admittedly... gauche."
Neige scratched the back of his head.
"So... do we end up becoming friends?"
"..."
Yuu hesitated.
"...Not exactly."
Neige's smile faltered.
"...Oh."
Seeing his expression, Vil pinched the bridge of his nose.
"...It's a fairy tale, Neige. They rarely have nuanced endings."
Neige brightened again almost instantly.
"Oh! Then we'll just make this one better."
Vil stared at him for a moment before letting out a quiet, amused huff.
"...Perhaps we already have."
Yuu smiled.
"...Yeah."
"...I think you have."
By the end of the week...
The entire school knew.
Not that they were fictional.
Yuu had been careful to avoid saying that again.
Instead...
They simply admitted there were "stories from another world."
One evening, Ace found Yuu sitting on Ramshackle's porch.
"...So."
"...Yeah?"
"...Who's your favorite?"
Yuu laughed.
"I can't answer that."
"Why not?"
"Because I grew up with stories."
"..."
"...But I met people."
Ace blinked.
"The stories made everyone seem... simpler."
He thought of Riddle.
Strict.
Leona.
Lazy.
Azul.
Greedy.
Jamil.
Scheming.
Malleus.
Cursed.
"But then I got here."
Yuu smiled softly.
"And Riddle organizes tea time when someone looks down."
"And Leona quietly looks after his dorm."
"And Azul genuinely cares about his lounge."
"And Jamil smiles when Kalim isn't looking."
"And Malleus just... wants friends."
"And Vil cares about the well being of his dorm members, even though it's a bit.. overbearing at times."
Ace was quiet.
"The stories weren't wrong."
"They just weren't complete."
Just then, Grim jumped onto the porch railing.
"So what am I based on?"
Yuu stared.
"..."
"..."
"...Honestly?"
"I have absolutely no idea."
Grim puffed out his chest proudly.
"Heh! Guess I'm too original!"
From somewhere nearby, Crowley muttered under his breath, "Or perhaps far too troublesome to fit into any story."
Yuu couldn't help but smile.
Maybe that was the biggest difference between fairy tales and reality.
Stories ended with "happily ever after."
Life kept going, and the people in it became far more than the roles they were inspired by.
