Elias Wright, Mind Jekyll, Henry Kell, as well as Siblings AU all belonged to @leonenjoyer69 !!!

Ever since I read throughout the long ramble of this AU, I immediately fell in love with it and instantly attached on how different the life they have here compared to their original counterparts <3

Little rundown just so it's here too:

  A resident of Lanyon's mindscape, he's a sparkly amalgamation of Jekyll and Hyde. Wandering between the ballroom, halls, and his lab, he mainly dances, experiments, and charms. He has phantom pains all around his body, stemming from Lanyon's constant fear of Jekyll getting hurt (especially via potion mishaps), and has a limp in his left leg from recurring nightmares of Jekyll stepping in a bear trap on the faithful Bleeding Heart Night™.

    Before Lanyon and Elias split, mind Jekyll looked far more like normal Jekyll and acted a bittt more awkward. however, after learning of Jekylls duality, mindkyll became a bit more Hyde like, his sideburns growing out, his hair growing messier, and gaining a hole filled cape and green hat, as well as gradient eyes. He hates his new appearance a decent bit, blaming Elias for it. However, he still certainly wasn't innocent before.

    He spends most of his time in the ballroom, since Lanyon taught him how to act "proper" and he seemingly surpassed Lanyon at that, causing him to become a sort of icon to Lanyon in that sense. In the ballroom he's quite the charmer, going between the shadow people and playing them as he wishes, which stems from Lanyon's jealousy of how Jekyll acted (and still acts) with women at parties while they were together.

All in all, a lot of Mindkyll's character stems from Lanyon's twisted view of Jekyll after their breakup and when Lanyon was plagued with jealousy, and then of course a decent bit is Hyde's influence as well. He also holds a lot of Lanyon's "rebellious" stage, since he's still a part of Lanyon.

He also lets off sparkles as a sort of defense mechanism for when he feels threatened or starts getting impatient/aggravated. They have a somewhat calming effect, most of the time at least, made to distract people from his real intentions and feelings, or pose as a visit distraction so he can flee if need be. Occasionally, however, their impact/sway is dulled, like against Mind Everly. Eventually, Lanyon starts becoming more resistant to their sway, and after a certain future event, so does Elias.

Mind Jekyll getting the early Christmas vibes
