Lucifer

He knows about periods, yes, Lilith herself did go through them- however, as far as he was aware, they were not as excruciating. She just was a moody muffin who became overly blunt and would be extremely hungry. Yes, she did want to throw hands at times but he shrugged it off for the most part.

Yes female angels have periods too, he has been witness to some rather brutal ones where the female angels just get insanely emotional or start wanting heads to roll. Demon females too, he’s seen plenty at the local grocery store go bonkers over snacks and the hygiene products.

He had no idea exactly how painful these could get, oh boy would he find out.

Was hesitant at first, after all, you seem to be in agony during your monthly visitor but he decides to give this a go just to see how you truly feel. He’s seen plenty of females, angel, human or demon, go through them and each have their own unique emotional range and pains.

What can possibly go wrong? It’s just a silly human device that is made to simulate period pain. How could this ever hurt the great Lucifer himself?

How bad can it REALLY be? Sir, prepare to feel some agony.

“Is this even on? Hmph, this is easier than I thought.”

Sir, that is because it’s only at setting 1, be ready for worse.

Immediately eats his words the second you crank it up to about three, he refuses to admit it hurts and simply says he’s a demon, this is nothing.

Crank it up to about five and he is already sweating, he still refuses to throw in the towel and admit defeat. He must hold out for as long as possible.

“Y/N… you really feel this?! Every month?!”

“Yes, but imagine more pain and blood gushing out of your southern hemisphere- oh and tender breasts, followed by a fever, bloating, nausea, and insane cravings.”

“Remind me to curse Father out more for this- ahem- design flaw…”

You crank it up to seven and he caves. He is done. He has unshed tears in his eyes and is on the bed writhing in agony.

“Honey, want to try levels nine and ten? That’s how it usually feels for me on the first two days.”

He literally looks you in the eyes and says he will never do that again, however… he just discovered an interesting punishment device in this thing.

I feel bad for the sorry chap who has to suffer the simulator by the hands of Lucifer himself.

After experiencing the period pain simulation he will go even more above and beyond for you during your period.

He runs to the store faster than Mammon when he hears the word “money” to buy you snacks, pads, and anything really.

“You know, level 10 is the equivalent to early labor pains.”

Oh absolutely not, nope, and he thought level 6 was labor pain.

You are hereby exempt from taking classes in-person while on your period. You will become an online student those days and you will be required to relax and take it easy.

If his grudge for his Father wasn’t already big enough that grudge just skyrocketed so high it’s practically a missile to the Celestial Realm.

Mammon

He’s mildly familiar with periods, despite having a little sister he’s still an idiot as to how biology works in that sense.

He has an F (32.60%) in biology currently

He understands the b*tchy attitude and the craving part but the blood part…? Not really. Tell him about bleeding for a week straight and watch this man dial 666 (Devildom’s 911) for immediate assistance in getting his human to the hospital because of Father above you are obviously dy*ng and you need help.

The minute you tell him about this simulator and how it’s supposedly painful and can simulate a period he gets curious and thinks this is a great way to show he’s manly enough for you.

Mammon, you will suffer worse than any of the punishment Lucifer has put you through.

“Can’t hurt worse than any kick to the balls! Ha! This is simple! I’m the GREAT Mammon, I got this!”

Mammon, sweetie, a kick to the balls is nothing to this. It’s scientifically proven that period pains are equally as painful as a heart attack.

He whimpers as the simulator is strapped on

“Y-yo what gives?! It hurts!”

“Mammon, it’s not even on…”

You turn the dial onto the lowest setting, one, so far Mammon is holding strong, nothing too serious.

“Just feels like I gotta fart- like, not a big one but a good sized one.”

Turn it up to about three and he is already clutching his gut and whimpering.

“O-ok! N-now I feel like I gotta sh*t! But there ain’t any sh*t to sh*t! Y/N THE HELL IS THIS?!”

You crank it up to about six and he gives up. He is on the ground crying like a baby.

He swears that Lucifer gives less painful punishments than THIS.

“TURN IT OFF!! YO Y/N TURN IT OFF!! THIS IS WORSE THAN ANYTHIN’!! GETTIN’ KICKED IN THE NUTS IS NOTHIN’ TO THIS!!”

He will also swear that getting “the cut” was less painful than this simulator and will wholeheartedly d*e on that hill.

“This is like… my third lightest day in terms of flow, so yeah- this is painful but just uncomfortable.”

“TF YOU MEAN JUST UNCOMFORTABLE?!”

Man is ready to throw hands with your uterus and demand it stops hurting you.

Mammon feels even worse knowing he picked on his little sister when she was on her period and vows to never anger a lady on her monthly ever again.

“I-is it true ya don’t get this when yer pregnant…? If so, uh….”

Leviathan

He’s heard of periods of course, mainly from anime and manga. He knew of them a bit back when Lilith was around but never really thought much of it.

He is legit scared of them though because Lilith would bite and would get extremely moody on hers and he only ever was aware of the emotional aspect of periods.

Little girl chased him into his room and became very chihuahua like when on her monthly.

He thought the blood part was something only in anime and manga but…. Shh, Y/N, let him figure that out himself.

He’s familiar with the trend, he spends his time scrolling through FabSnap for trends or other things.

“LMAO what normie stuff! Putting themselves through pain from some measly human machine ROTFL!”

“Levi, that measly human machine hurts worse than getting kicked in the balls and is as painful as a literal heart attack.”

“Y/N, PLZ, that’s gotta be some normie rumor and they’re acting in front of the camera- that thing is so small that it totally can’t do something like THAT! LOOOOOOOLLL!! So yeah, my balls are fine, I’m fine, and I’m NOT gonna look like a normie whining on the floor!”

He lifts his shirt and puts the stickers on where they belong he sits in his beanbag chair and waits for whatever you have to throw at him.

How bad can this normie thing be?

He feels a small ounce of discomfort when it’s at one, just brushes it off and is slightly unfazed.

“Just feels like I ate something weird- lmao like that really awful Ruri-Chan collab I went to in-”

To shut him up you crank it to three.

“Ooofff! W-why does it feel like I really gotta sh*t? Is that all a period is? Feeling like you gotta run to the bathroom all the time?!”

Oh Levi, if only you REALLY knew….

You crank the simulator up to six and he screams like a baby, his scream is so high pitched it may have almost broke Henry’s fish tank….

You crank up one more level and oh goodness is he screaming even louder.

“TURN IT OFF!! TURN THE DAMN THING OFF OMG!! THIS HURTS!! OMG THIS HURTS!!!”

“That’s like- my second or third heaviest day, give or take. Sometimes it feels worse. That’s still doable but hurts.”

He will legit look at you with the face of ‘what the absolute f*ck’ while crying.

Like Mammon, will wholeheartedly d*e on the hill of “the cut” hurting less than this simulator- hell, that was wimp level compared to a period pain! Level uno!

Totally the tutorial for the game called pain.

Leviathan will want to throw hands with your uterus and will feel immense guilt realizing how he didn’t do enough for Lilith when she was still around.

“I-if anime has taught me anything t-then I um… t-then I’m gonna treat you m-much better, y/n…! W-wanna watch some anime now…?”

Please give him hugs after that simulator! He needs that desperately!

Satan

Oh he knows, he’s very well aware of how periods are painful, sometimes even more painful depending on the person.

Satan has heard of the simulator and is aware it’s supposed to be excruciating for men, however, that will probably not have any effect on him- he’s a demon. Demon males are stronger than human males-

What? Lucifer was in agony?! Lucifer caved from a mere period pain simulator?! Mammon and Levi too?! Challenge accepted.

You’ve never seen this man rip his shirt off so fast and strap on the simulator in your life. He was eager to prove he is stronger than that stupid Lucifer.

Level one? Really? Is that thing even on? This is NOTHING!

“This is easy, nothing, if this is what a period truly feels like then it’s not too unbearable. Perhaps the books were wrong.”

He eats those words immediately when you crank the simulator up to four.

“O-okay, this is uncomfortable. I feel like I seriously have to run to the men’s room… there’s nothing to release yet it feels like I have food poisoning… hhhnnnggg!!!”

You crank it up to six and he is in tears and gritting his teeth. Agony is setting in and he is digging his nails into his pillow.

“MOTHER F——”

A lot of swearing, not just modern swears, oh no, he will let out swears from the first ever civilizations and ancient peoples. If there was ever a swear word dictionary you best believe this man would have written it.

“SON OF A MOTHER [insert any swears you so wish here]”

Ok, please get one of those TV censored buttons in here. The bleep button will be going nonstop at this point…

“HOW THE [censored] CAN YOU [censored] EVEN [censored] TAKE THIS?!”

If you could tally every swear this man has said you may have filled an entire notepad by now and then some…

Please see your nearest Purgatory Hall for an angel’s blessing to your ears once this has concluded, thank you!

At seven he is still trying his absolute hardest not to break, he absolutely has to beat Lucifer, he needs to be better than him! He refuses to fail!

Please insert any swears from the 14th century here please and thank you! :3

You crank it up to eight and that is it, he is immediately caving, he yells in absolute agony into his pillow. He is sweaty and in tears.

“W-what the absolute f*ck was that?! That… the books never said it would hurt that terribly! How are you even alive, Y/N?! If it’s truly as painful as a heart attack you seriously need to take the week off!”

“Hm? A week off? Well, about that, we usually just suffer silently as we go about our days. Chocolate is a game changer truly.”

His jaw drops, he cannot begin to comprehend how the hell you are even able to walk after going through such a painful experience. Let alone how it even feels to have a full crimson waterfall for 24 hours seven days a week or less depending on the person.

“Oh and I’m also moody, nauseous, bloated, crave weird things and purposely read sad books or watch crime shows. In the mornings for some people it can mimic that of morning sickness and really make it unbearable. Fevers included.”

Watch this man begin to go through all his books to find ways to curse your uterus into never harming you again.

“Y/N…? Did I beat Lucifer? What level did he cave at?!”

You tell him he caved at seven and this man’s ego has skyrocketed. He is the most cocky man in the Devildom.

Congratulations, Y/N, you just literally made this man so full of himself he will probably not go back to normal for at least another 666 years at the least….

Asmodeus

Oh hon, he KNOWS about periods, he knows all the dirty details that come with it and literally everything about them. It’s kinda his thing.

Oh you didn’t know he tracks your cycle too? Oh hon, PLEASE, this man knows what’s up! Did you honestly think he did not know how to track these things? He helped his own little sister track hers and understand how to track them.

He’s heard of this trend going around and he can’t help but feel bad for every AFAB person who suffers period pains for real and without a simulation machine.

“Hon, you want me to try this out? Alright then~ a little pain can be fun you know~” *insert little winks and smirk*

Asmo, no, not THAT kind of pain…. *sigh*

Please don’t bonk him, he will make that hornkee jail worthy too…

He gets into some cute and comfy shorts from Victoria’s Secret and takes off his shirt. He makes sure to get on his bed so he feels at least some comfort.

Asmo is actually legitimately scared, he knows they are painful, he has seen you in agony and understands that there is undoubtedly pain in the package, he just does not know how much pain.

Can it be worse than the pain of getting his jewels busted? Definitely. Is it as painful as a heart attack? Science says yes.

He straps the stickers to his lower abdomen and braces for what happens next, he gets even more prepared by putting a pink fluffy headband on to pull his hair back in case he starts sweating… eew! Hon, no, sweat is totes gross and he cannot sweat and ruin his hair!

You turn it on and he winces, it’s not too painful, just uncomfortable. He understands this will only get worse and oh Diavolo is he bracing for impact.

“Y/N, hon, would you be a dear and hold my hand~?”

You comply hold his hand, he’s already squeezing it a little but not too tightly.

You crank it up to three and he is already wincing more and doing breathing exercises like he is a woman in labor. Admittedly, it is rather entertaining to witness…

“Oh goodness, hon, this… HHHNNNGGGGG…!!!! Oh this is certainly getting uncomfortable…”

You crank the device up to about five and he squeezes your hand tightly and lets out some swears. Sweat drips from his brow and he legit looks like he is a woman giving birth.

“Y/N, OH MY GOSH- OH F—! HHHHNNNGGGGG!!!! IT HURTS SO MUCH AND NOT THE FUN KINDA PAIN!!”

“You can do this, Asmo! You made it to level five and that’s incredible!”

“SHUSH!! OH DIAVOLO IT FEELS LIKE ITS AT TEN! AAAHHHH!!”

However….. RIP your hand and your ears as this man screams. A LOT.

The device goes to seven and he squeezes your hand even harder, honestly, you’re surprised it’s not broken.

“I FEEL LIKE I HAVE TO PUSH!! OH DIAVOLO THIS IS- AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!”

Push what? Nothing. Sir, you have nothing to push. You are definitely holding back your laughter as this is almost as good as the top Hollywood acting you see in films. Get this demon an award!

Breathing exercises continue and he continues to unintentionally look like he is having serious contractions and about to pop out a child- he’s not but… the simulator is doing a number on him for sure.

Don’t worry, he won’t spawn a random demon like a certain brother of his. Won’t mention any names… but… Lucifer…

You turn the device to about eight and that is it… he is done for.

His poor face is a mess with tears, some snot, and all red… give him a hug, a blanket, some chocolate, some skincare products, and a ton of kisses!!

“H-hon… how in the realms do you survive that agony?! How does anyone survive that?! Are we sure you didn’t strap a labor simulator on me?! Because if you hurt that much you are staying right here with me and I will make sure you feel incredible during your monthly visitor~”

“I feel all that along with the bloating, crimson waterfall of doom, the bizarre cravings, the mood swings, and the need to- ahem… fill in the blank…”

Say no more. This man is READY to go! Hon, you need only say the word and he is all set and ready to pounce!

“Before we do all that, hon, perhaps we can have a quick cuddle session~? I could use that after what you did to me~ and since you had your turn being in control…. Fufu~ you’ll be on the receiving end when we have our fun, love~”

Hello? 666 (Devildom’s 911)? Yes, I’d like to call an ambulance for Y/N when Asmo has finished his… yeah… Y/N may need a wheelchair…

Beelzebub

Oh? Periods? Like in Writing Class…..? No, Beel, sweetie… like the week of blood and agony.

He knows about them a little bit, he understands that there’s a super painful time for AFAB people but never knew it meant blood.

Beel remembers Lilith being very moody and hungry when she was on hers, he remembered how mad she would get if anyone touched her sweets.

He may have almost suffered a broken nose because she was really upset he ate her chocolate cupcakes and now understands that you need sugar to feel better.

Is it medicine…? Sort of, Beel, sort of like medicine, sweetie.

You have to hold his hand and explain the whole process and why it happens, he does get a bit confused but now understands why you smelled like iron those times- he just thought you are a big juicy steak and got all the juices on you somewhere.

“So you bleed for a week or a few days…? And you don’t… you know…. Go…?”

“Yes, for a a few days to a week, no biggie, it’s all part of the process. See? I’m alive, don’t look so scared, Beeley Bear!”

Give him some head pats and make sure he knows you won’t be d*ing anytime soon because of a period.

After promising to take him to a buffet for lunch he agrees to try the simulator, it truly did not take much convincing as he truly wanted to understand and also…. Food.

Beel will take off his shirt and get comfortable in a pair of workout shorts before putting the pads on his lower abdomen.

He is actually very nervous, while he can take pain and all he does actually get scared.

You switch it on to level one and he is confused, wheres the pain?

“Is this even on, Y/N…? Did I break it…? I’m sorry…”

“No you didn’t break it, Beel, this is just level one of ten.”

You crank it up to three and he is starting to feel something. Not much, but something.

“Feels like… hmm… feels like I may need to run to the little demons’ room but not too bad. Is this normal…?”

You nod and crank it up to about five and he has a hand over his belly wincing a little, he truly feels like he needs to run to he little demons’ room but knows there is nothing there.

“So all this is just the feeling of seriously needing to run to the little demons’ room…? So far so good I guess… just feels very uncomfortable. Like a tummy ache…”

“Yeah, it feels like that at times, I get it, but there is obviously more to it than feeling like you need to make a mad dash to the nearest available ‘little demons’ room’ as you put it.”

Crank it up to eight and he is legit starting to feel the pain.

“Y-Y/N… Y/N this r-really hurts now…. feels like when I ate a can of expired tomatoes from 400AD….”

Y/N, you made Beel start to cry, I truly hope you feel terrible now… he has tears in his eyes and is whimpering like a puppy.

You immediately turn it off because quite frankly seeing Beel upset was what truly did it for you.

“I’m sorry for eating your snacks during that time of the month, Y/N, for now on, you can have my custard and as many of my snacks as you want. Oh, and if you wanna go to a restaurant for lunch or something let me know! You’ll get anything!”

Beel is literally the sweetest guy ever, he will literally make sure that you get everything and more during that time of the month because you deserve it.

Belphegor

He knows a bit, not much but definitely enough, he understands that hormones play a huge part and make you an emotional mess, he also understands that there’s blood involved and that there’s weird cravings but the rest? Fill in the blanks.

He remembers Lilith being extra clingy with him when she was on her period, yes she would threaten to bite if he so much as moved the wrong way when she would hop into his bed at night.

One time Belphie made the stupid mistake of saying Lilith looked like she was ran over by a stampede one morning when she had a rude awakening with the crimson flow of doom and got slapped for it.

Like Lilith, you seem to have inherited the same attitude along with a plethora of others… lovely.

“So that’s why you’re always extra b*tchy- hormones and pain, huh? I get it, I’d be just as b*tchy if I were in your shoes- oh I can be in your shoes…?”

Belphie is a bit confused at first at what you mean, he first thought you meant a trip to Solomon to make a potion that would give him the sensation of a period but apparently not.

Oh thank goodness, gives him an excuse not to get out of bed and to remain in his pyjamas and cuddle you and his favourite pillow.

“So is it supposed to hurt or anything? If so this is weak as f—k.”

“Belphie, it’s not even on.”

“Oh… then turn it on before I consider forfeiting and taking a nap, nap time is about now- O-oh…”

Turning it on shuts him up immediately and he sits there a bit confused.

He looks mildly uncomfortable, still a bit confused as to why it’s not that bad- after all, you make it sound as if your insides are literally becoming outsides.

“That’s it? Y/N, not gonna lie, this is boring. I thought this was supposed to be painful.”

Turn the dial up to about four and he’s wincing a bit.

“O-oh sh*t… Y-Y/N I really feel like I need to run to the little demons’ room…! Hhnngg….!”

“It feels like that, doesn’t it? That feeling lasts about two to three days for me depending on flow and length of period.”

He just glares at you as you turn it up to six, he is clutching his pillow and swears just as much as Satan… he also breaks out the 14th century swears along with the first ever swear words of early civilizations.

“SON OF A [censored]! THIS [censored] [censored] HURTS LIKE A [censored]!!

That’s cute, Y/N, you thought Satan was the swear word machine. No, it’s Belphie. This boy can swear! And this little sh*t can get away with it too because he’s the youngest…

“Want to cave in, sweetie?”

“F—K NO! I WANNA BEAT LUCIFER…!”

Turn the dial up to seven and he’s starts crying loudly, this honestly hurts too much for him and it is not pleasant in the slightest.

“TURN IT OFF DAMNIT!! TURN IT OFF…!!”

He has sweat pouring from his brow and tears streaming down his face and looks like a hot mess, you immediately take the stickers off his belly and give him a huge hug.

“Y-you go through that…? Every month or so…?”

“Yes, but of course there’s blood, mood swings, cravings, waking up nauseous sometimes with a small fever, and even being bloated. Sore breasts too on occasion.”

“How the absolute f—k are you even allowed to leave the house and go about life with all that?! No, you are gonna stay with me and cuddle. No way you should have to go through that.”

Belphie will literally buy you any and all products you need from Akuzon while you cuddle because there is no way you should be made to move- well unless you need a new pad or tampon or something or to go…. But food? He will ask his twin to be the delivery guy with snacks and drinks.

“What the f—k was Father thinking when he made this? I mean- I know why it happens and all but what the f—k was his overall logic?!”

Like Lucifer, has plans of giving Father the what for with this “design flaw”.

“New prank idea- make a potion to use on Lucifer that makes him feel this pain for a week straight!”

Belphie…. No….

Belphie yes 😈

Just wanted to point these out…

One is of his mother holding him as an infant and the other of his parents together and what appears to be his dad is holding him…

I feel like he may have been seriously touch starved back then and honestly that’s why so many of the photos are of him either cuddled up next to his mum, holding his parents hands, or being held…. He truly craves that….

He had to grow up fast, not because he was given siblings to take care of and help with, but because he was quite literally his parents’ trophy child they likely conceived purely out of the desire to produce a child good enough to call an heir to the Rosehearts name, and what they may likely deem a “superior” bloodline as it’s clear his parents are quite successful people. He HAD to be the best, he HAD to grow up fast. I don’t doubt he was loved, well, likely not in the way we would expect it as I’m quite sure Mama Rosehearts showed “love” in different ways as she probably was raised worse and is trying but does not understand the concept of motherly love and genuine care for her son.

Think of it like this… if a person only ever grew up in a place where “love” was shown by let’s say a mountain of chores or extra homework while living in a sheltered environment then that person will likely do the same if they produce their own offspring. If all someone knows is a horrid environment and perceives that as normal they are more likely to keep that up and believe what they experienced from day one is indeed normal without the outside influence telling them otherwise.

Riddle’s childhood was stripped from him and he was quite literally given the whole Rapunzel in the tower scenario that it shows, he was given the whole “mother knows best” treatment minus the catchy song I’m 99.9% of you have had stuck in your heads at least once. That’s why in his dream he wants to break free of those chains and let loose, have some late teenage rebellion, curse out the authorities, live in a lively household where photos of him and his friends are on the walls and shows genuine love. Shows him being held in the arms of his parents.

I do t think he was held much as a child if he dreams of it, he probably craves that feeling. A feeling poor Riddle may not fully know or remember…

That… that’s bloody sad, mate…

- Windblume

The time had come at last for (Y/N) to leave Twisted Wonderland and all throughout the school was a heavy weight of grief and sadness as a dear friend was to leave once and for all. You knew the sacrifice you were about to make, for once you stepped into the mirror you would never be able to return to the magical school ever again. As everyone gathered in the Mirror Chamber a heavy rain of sadness drenched the land outside and thunder roared in frustration, surely a certain Hornton was behind this storm. Crowley stood by the mirror and watched as you made your way down the aisle and to the mirror. 

Malleus appeared suddenly in a burst of green flames, you pause your steps and he approaches with sad emerald eyes. He offers you his arm for you to link with his own for the last time. You link arms and he walks you down the aisle and to the mirror, the air dense with sadness and heartbreak. 

“I once hoped that a walk down an aisle would not be for this…” Malleus said sadly as he looked into your eyes. “I hoped it was for a much happier and joyous occasion…”

You let some tears spill from your eyes as you approach the Mirror of Darkness, Crowley takes your hand and leads you into position, Malleus stands behind you staring, dreading what comes next. 

“(Y/N), wait…” Malleus pulls you close and places a long, passionate kiss on your lips one last time. “I will always love you, (Y/N)…Always.”

You kiss him once more for the final time, tears pouring from your eyes like a waterfall, your face red and puffy as you cry. You vow that if the time ever comes, you will see him again, you are unsure of how you will do so but you will.

“No matter how long it takes, Hornton, I will be back in your arms again…” You sob as a glowing light engulfs your body and you slowly fade away, returning to your own world.

Every night in my dreams

I see you, I feel you

That is how I know you go on

You awaken in your room, as if you had never left in the first place. It’s night time, the moon is full and its glow illuminates your bedroom. The faces of your friends and classmates still fresh in your mind, their sorrowful faces and the echoing of their cries as you were about to forever leave them. You could still feel Malleus’s arms around you as you lay in your bed, you choke out a sob knowing he is forever out of your reach- or so you thought.

There, on your ring finger was a ring, a ring he gave to you at Noble Bell College during that trip to Fleur City. The night after the incident, once the performance had concluded, Malleus stayed behind in the hall and placed the ring upon your finger as a symbol of promise to you until the day he may make himself yours fully and forever. 

The emerald glimmered in the moonlight and your heart ached terribly, the green was the same as his eyes. The eyes you had hoped to wake up to every morning with a passionate kiss and a gentle hand caressing your still sleepy face. No, that was gone now, so was your Hornton…

Far across the distance

And spaces between us

You have come to show you go on

For many days after you left Twisted Wonderland the land had been plagued with thunderstorms. Malleus was a mess, it was a wonder he had not overblotted yet again. Silver, Sebek, and Lilia all knew grieving took time, Malleus. He spent many nights crying himself to sleep looking at your photographs, reading letters you wrote him and watching videos the two of you made together. 

As months passed he knew he had to move on, it was difficult, and his heart was still telling him to stay in the past and cling to you, the promise ring on his finger was one of his many reminders of you… every now and then he would wander to the school courtyard and wish into the well for you to return to him, he did not care how, he just wanted you back. Soon enough, his visits to the wishing well became less frequent, knowing his wishes would likely never come true.

He stopped visiting Ramshackle dorm all together too, the dorm became too painful for him to visit. Even your memorial that was setup outside the dorm was too painful to look at. He did, on occasion, pay it a visit and leave flowers but it made him sick to his stomach to even go there, it was not the same as going to the dorm to pay you a visit at night. 

You used to tease him by calling him Romeo when he would sneak to Ramshackle and throw pebbles at your window to get you to peek out or even run down the stairs and outside to meet him. He missed that, oh he missed it terribly…

He paid the Shroud brothers a visit to see if they could find some way to get him to your world, of course they both sadly shook their heads and told him it was impossible.

“Look, Malleus… I get it, you want (Y/N) back but… even if we could, which we can’t- believe me I’ve tried for months now, dude, I just can’t crack whatever magical code this thing has- it’s too OP even for a genius hacker like yours truly. T-that’s srsly saying something, man!” Idia sighed, slumping back into his gaming chair in defeat. 

“Malleus, if Big Brother and I ever find anything at all I can assure you that you would be the first to know… we cannot guarantee we will find out how to connect our worlds again but if we do I will personally pay you a visit, okay?” Ortho replied, putting a gentle robotic hand on Malleus’s shoulder in an act of comfort.

Near, far, wherever you are

I believe that the heart does go on

Once more, you open the door

And you're here in my heart

And my heart will go on and on

A few years later you marry and have children of your own, your husband, coincidentally, reminds you so much of your Hornton. His eyes are a similar green, his hair as black as ebony, his smile sweet yet mischievous. He also had a fascination with old buildings and architecture, gargoyles too. If anything it was almost as if you truly married Malleus- well, the Malleus of your world. 

You lay in your hospital bed with a handsome newborn boy in your arms, Malleus is his name, you wanted to have a piece of him in your world, even if it was only by name. Your husband asked you about the inspiration for the name as he thought it was indeed an interesting choice but not opposed to it in the slightest. 

“It was the name of someone in a story I read once, thought it would fit him…” You smile softly at the sleeping infant in your arms, your daughter, Aurora, climbs up next to you and rests her head on your arm. 

“Was it like how you came up with my name? Naming me after the Sleeping Princess from that story, mummy?” 

You nod, a stray tear falling from your eyes as you think of all your memories of the days of old… truly the heart wanted to stay in the past despite all the time that had gone. 

Love can touch us one time

And last for a lifetime

And never let go 'til we're gone

Malleus had moved on as well- or as much as he could possibly manage. He married Sebek’s older sister and had two children, his second child, a baby girl, was named after you. He cried tears of happiness the second he held her in his arms. Like you with your children, he too wanted a small piece of you in his life that he gave the child the gift of your name to carry on and hopefully pass down to her own children. 

Malleus sat in her nursery rocking her with tearful eyes, she had your name. You would have loved his baby girl if you could have met her. He could only wonder if you married well and were gifted with children of your own. 

He knew of other classmates of yours and his that too were blessed by children and amazing lives after graduation from Night Raven College. 

Riddle became a father of twin daughters and a successful lawyer. Vil continued his acting career and married a wonderful woman who gave him three beautiful children, a boy and two girls. Azul became a successful realtor for multimillion dollar homes and properties and had a son. Kalim found love and married well, he and his wife are now expecting baby number five. Malleus had written to each of them expressing his utmost congratulations for the births of their beautiful children, they too sent their own messages to check on him and make sure all was well even after the years had passed.

Malleus sat back in the rocking chair with a sigh, putting his daughter atop his chest, one hand atop her back and one under her bum to support her. He knew if you could see everyone again you would be so happy, everyone was doing so well. Malleus still checked in with the Shroud brothers but neither of them had an update on connecting the worlds, Idia had even paid the Briar Valley a visit to show his findings on the data he had collected but with no success in the connection. 

And still, his heart must go on…

Love was when I loved you

One true time I'd hold to

In my life, we'll always go on

You became a successful author and illustrator, spending many years writing about your journey in Twisted Wonderland, eventually the story got picked up by a major company and became a popular mobile game with a television program in the works.

Your children loved the stories, even taking part in special events for the story releases and dressing up for conventions. No one would ever know that what they were reading and playing was based on a true story about your own adventures, hearing the same words they said to you or to another. However, this was now their story where they played as themselves, you wanted them to have a piece of the magic.

You saw the occasional person wearing merchandise from your story, the keychains of Grim brought a tinge of sadness to you knowing that he was gone too. You designed dolls of each of the housewardens, the doll of Malleus being a top seller. 

“See, Hornton? You are loved even in this world… I made sure to tell your story here too…”

And told it you did. In multiple interviews with the press about your story you said that this was merely a tale that had come to you once upon a dream, but little did they all know that this story was a true story, not a Dream no matter how crazy it may sound. Yes, a fae prince who constantly got forgotten from invites coming to pay you nightly visits in your dilapidated dormitory sounds insane, but so does being picked up by a horse drawn carriage while your body lays within the confines of a coffin only to be taken to an arcane academy where all the boys there seem to have ties to fairytale stories in your own world. However, those fairytales for you were their reality. A true twisted wonderland. 

Near, far, wherever you are

I believe that the heart does go on (why does the heart go on?)

Many years have now passed, you are now old. Same would go for the others in the world you had left behind, some gone, some clinging to life. Malleus himself, while old, was not yet done with his time. Idia’s son, as well as grandson have made a breakthrough in finding a way to crack part of the code that separated your world and theirs.

Idia’s grandson and son burst into the throne room where Malleus sat. The boy, Demetrius, approached Malleus nervously, a small smile on his face and a nod. Malleus knew exactly what the boy was saying even without words. 

“M-Malleus, my son cracked it- well partially… you see, it’s only able to slip small things through- perhaps photographs or even letters? It can reach (Y/N) in her world!”

Malleus stood up, gasping, a stray tear fell from his eyes as he made his way towards the Shroud family. 

“I-is this true…? Please… tell me you don’t jest…” 

“Malleus… My boy is telling the truth… we sent a maddol into their world, we received a signal from the other world’s news outlets that a mysterious currency made it into their world. Baffled the world- turns out there’s a whole government that believes this is a threat fuehehehe!” Idia’s son, Theo and his son, Demetrius snickering at what they had done. “My dad, Idia, would’ve wanted you to come with us and see what we have gotten… he entrusted this project to us.”

Malleus goes with the Shrouds to the Isle of Woe, a photo of himself and you in his hands and other photos he had collected from schoolmates who had sent him letters over the years. Before him stood a portal, strong enough to send the photos to your world, giving the news another bout of confusion. Malleus quickly wrote a letter, hoping you would read it, even see a small glimpse of it. 

He wrote of how he had been doing, how Riddle’s daughters became counselors at Night Raven College, how Rook became a skilled archeologist with an incredible family to follow his legacy after he passed. Deuce’s daughter married Ace’s son of all people, and of how unfortunately Deuce had died in action as an officer. Malleus wrote about Silver’s legacy in the Briar Valley, opening homes for orphaned children and creating special opportunities for them. He wrote of Sebek too, his time as an incredible knight before he passed. He wrote of everyone, he wanted you to know everything about the world you had left. 

He sealed the letter in the envelope, kissing it and sending it through the portal with the photographs… praying that you would find them.

——

On the other side of the portal you sat in your home, your grandson and son taking care of you, you were almost one hundred and one by now but you were doing well, still quick as a whip and able to move around as if you were still in your seventies. On the television you heard a voice on the news say that a strange envelope had appeared out of nowhere with photographs of people who looked like they were from the story you had written, and the news anchor began to read the letter.

It was him, Hornton… 

“Turn that up, dear!” You call to your grandson who turns up the volume, there on the screen you see a photo of you and Malleus in Noble Bell College together. “Oh by the Great Seven! Hornton!”

“Grandma, isn’t that…!” You nod, smiling at him with tears in your eyes. 

“It’s been eighty four years and I can still smell the damp wood of the old Ramshackle dorm…”

Once more, you open the door

And you're here in my heart

And my heart will go on and on

You pass away, joining everyone else in heaven, you see all your friends from Night Raven College again. They all look as they did all those years ago, young and fresh faced. You all stood there in the Mirror Chamber awaiting the final member to join you all. The housewardens and others stood in their respective rows as you stood by the mirror. 

What may have been days for you all in heaven, it was almost hundreds of years later when Malleus had passed away. The gates of Night Raven College opened again and Malleus walked through, he saw all his old schoolmates and his family, Silver, Sebek and Lilia smiled brightly as they led him inside. Then he saw it…

You were standing by the mirror, turning around happily with Grim by your side. You smiled at Malleus, extending a hand to him. He runs over to you and holds you close, kissing you passionately and the entire school cheers. It had been so many years and all of them had waited for this moment, for you both to join them and be together at last.

“I never stopped waiting, my love…”

You're here, there's nothing I fear

And I know that my heart will go on 

We'll stay forever this way

You are safe in my heart and 

My heart will go on and on

Ventus had only just arrived to the Land of Departure, he had no memories, only feelings, faint images, and some faint sounds in his little mind. He had awoken earlier that chilly afternoon to the sounds of a blue haired young woman saying that he had woken up, followed by the appearance of a young man with brown hair and an elderly man with kind yet slightly stern eyes. He felt no danger with them, only a sense of safety and security… but he felt so afraid.

These people… they’re safe people. I don’t think they’ll hurt me or scare me… their voices sound happy, relieved… but why? Because of me? What is so special about me? I’m just a broken little kid…

Throughout his bath he was still, lifeless, only letting out the occasional sleepy squeak or sniffle, he couldn’t even bathe himself yet as he was far too exhausted and dazed. Aqua and Terra had to help him, speaking softly and soothingly to him, trying to make him feel safe and secure. One thing was for sure, the poor child was in need of the bath, he was quite dusty from wherever he was previously, sand was on his little feet and on his skin. Certainly that could not be comfortable in the slightest for him!

“So? How did it go, you two? I see a sleepy little boy here practically wobbling where he stands.” Eraqus asked softly with a small smile as he looked down at Ven who held Aqua’s hand, his head resting against her arm, eyes lost in whatever fog he was trapped in.

Aqua..? Yeah, that’s her name, she’s nice. Gentle and kind. She helped me, so did that nice guy, Terra..? Yeah, Terra. He’s nice too.

“He nearly fell asleep in the bath, he’s okay, just exhausted. Ven here only had a few whimpers and sniffles but overall a very good boy.” Aqua praised gently as she used her free hand to gently smooth his slightly damp hair.

“He’s okay, like Aqua said, he’s sleepy, he didn’t fuss when we helped him get dressed either, he’s all ready for a much needed early bedtime.” Terra chuckled, watching Aqua hand Ven over to Master Eraqus who picked him up, setting him on his old hip with a small smile.

Eraqus chuckled softly as he watched Ventus sleepily lay his head on his shoulder. “Definitely in need of some sleep, I see. Come on, let’s get you tucked in and asleep, dear boy. It’s been an eventful day for one so young.”

Ven just rested there with droopy eyes and a small sniffle. Thinking to himself in his dazed state.

This old man- Master Eraqus..? Yeah, that’s his name… he seems kind, he’s not gonna hit me or kick me… he won’t- he’s not the bad man from before- the scary man with the terrifying golden eyes… he’s kind. He acts like a papa, wait? Is he my new papa? I dunno… too sleepy…and still scared…

Soon enough, he was tucked into bed for an extra early bedtime that evening at around 6pm as he looked overly exhausted. The broken ten year old boy now lays back in his new bed, bathed and clothed for bed in some comfortable children’s pyjamas, a soft sage green with small yellow star fruit and blue ice cream sticks.

This bed… it’s safe, warm, it’s not in a scary place… I don’t even remember where that scary place was, maybe it’s for the best… I feel a little better… I don’t want to be alone though…

The old man, Eraqus, then stayed by his bedside until he fell asleep, stroking his cheek gently to help him drift off. It wasn’t the previous pain he endured, the harsh words or the trauma of the bald old man with the angry golden eyes. It was gentle, soothing, a feeling he felt at ease with.

Eraqus went to stand up, however a feeling in his gut told him to stay by the child to be safe. After all, he was still very broken and in a dazed state. He was, for the most part, mute. He only spoke softly and very little.

Gods, what did Xehanort do to this child?! No child should be in such a state! Using a child’s heart to obtain the χ-Blade… such cruelty.. Eraqus pondered as he stared at the sleeping boy, his sweet face pale and almost sickly. He looked rough, very rough. His head was turned to the right and faced Eraqus and the door,

Soon enough, that peace was disrupted by a dream, a memory long forgotten…

A girl, a dark room, a shadow, a keyblade…. Pain, suffering, sadness… heartache…

Where am I..? It’s dark- I don’t like the dark, don’t bad things happen in the darkness? Monsters?! I remember black monsters with big golden eyes- no- please no! I don’t want that! Who is that girl?! I’m scared… What is this..?! A memory? No- a nightmare…?! N-no… no please not a nightmare..! Someone, anyone… I’m scared!

A choked sob, a quivering lip, it was Ventus. Eraqus looked down and saw it, Ven was already tossing and turning from a nightmare.

“Ventus, it’s alright, it’s alright, come now, dear child, wake up… please open your eyes.” Eraqus spoke as gently and urgently as he could, gently shaking Ventus but to no success, Ven laid there crying and whimpering, his small legs kicked under the covers and his chest moved rapidly as he sobbed.

Eraqus sighed, knowing Ven was too trapped in his dream to likely react to shaking- or even worse, the shaking was scaring him more in whatever horrors were happening within his dream. Eraqus thought fast, swiftly yet gently picking Ventus up into his arms and holding him so his head rested in the crook of his neck and so his petite frame was pressed against his own broad frame. Eraqus was no stranger to this tactic, after all, he raised Terra and Aqua from young ages and knew a thing or two about how to comfort a child in distress. The movements were natural to him, third time was most certainly a charm as they say, he perfected the craft on his now adult pupils he viewed as his children.

“Shh, Ventus, all is well, no harm shall come to you as long as you are here in this castle, in this world, no heartless or anything may touch you here. Hush now, dear boy… hush…” He spoke softly as he swayed gently, a rhythm he was familiar with, if anything, Eraqus felt in his element once more, he missed this feeling. As soon as Aqua and Terra grew up this treasured feeling grew distant, well, not anymore with Ventus now present.

Ven slowly opened his eyes, his lifeless blue eyes were full of tears and all red from crying, he looked into Eraqus’s own grey ones as if trying to find out if he was truly safe.

That dream, no, nightmare was horrible. I don’t wanna go back to sleep. What if those scary images come back? I don't think I can handle it…

“There we are, Ventus, that must’ve been quite the dream, lad. Frightening enough to make your eyes shed plenty of tears… you poor little boy. Let’s dry those up and see about getting you back to sleep.” Eraqus spoke as softly and evenly as he could to Ventus, trying to establish that he was his new guardian and not a stranger, wanting to forge a bond with the child as best he could. He gingerly wiped the tears off Ven’s puffy cheeks and nose with a soft handkerchief, softly hushing him.

Ven hiccuped a little, rubbing his eyes a bit before once more resting his head on Eraqus’s shoulder. He looked exhausted but clearly refusing sleep… this was not good, if Ventus did not get the required sleep a boy his age required he could get sick, and with a damaged heart and a weak body that would spell disaster. Eraqus could see Ventus was small for his age and below average weight likely due to malnourishment under Xehanort, so him refusing vital sleep would end in consequences he would rather not come to. It was the equivalent to pouring fuel atop a raging wildfire. Disaster could only ensue with the Ventus refusing vital rest.

“Ven, you need rest, young one, if you do not get the sleep a child your age desperately needs then you could get sick, my boy.” Eraqus explained softly, rubbing Ven’s bony back in an act to soothe him. “You won’t even close those eyes, eh? Well, whatever your dream was it certainly has put you in quite the fright to refuse sleep.”

Well, what if I don’t wanna go back to sleep? It was scary, mister, you got that right… that’s why I don’t wanna… I swear I’m not trying to be bad or a pain, mister… I’m just scared.

Ven only hid his face in the old man’s shoulder, trembling slightly, clearly still shaken.

Nope! No more! Not sleeping, mister..! If I sleep I could have another nightmare and that’s not what I want! I want to talk but… I can’t… something is stopping me from being able to tell this nice old man why I don’t want to sleep… It's too scary!

“No? My boy, you need sleep… Not even closing your eyes for a little? No? Oh Ventus…” He sighed, this was proving to be quite the challenge, Eraqus had to think carefully about what he could and could not do with getting Ventus to sleep and fast.

Okay, so that worked, hiding my face to say no works. But I can’t deny that I’m sleepy… I am sleepy… no! I gotta keep my eyes open! If I close them it gets dark and scary and awful things show up… but I wanna sleep, I’m tired… Why does this gotta be so hard..? Gee… why is it so unfair?

Fluids like warm milk were out of the question, it did not matter how old Ventus was and how well he could handle it, a child is a child and fluids before bed were never a wise decision. When considering Ven’s trauma Eraqus immediately thought “no” more than ever before. He would not subject the boy to such humiliation and cruelty. Absolutely no fluids before rest for the boy.

Then it hit the elderly master, a lullaby. A soothing, soft voice and a gentle swaying motion to help coax him into slumber faster. It was gentle and calming, and also a safer option.

“Alright, my boy, I have a better idea, one that will more than likely send you back to sleep, I have a feeling you’d like it too.” The old master spoke softly, using his free hand to gently run his thumb over the boy’s cheek.

Oh? What is it? I wanna know! I somehow can tell this nice man, Master Eraqus, is telling the truth… so I think I’m gonna trust him… I gotta trust the nice man. He’s not like the other guy.

“La-la-lu, la-la-lu

Oh, my little star sweeper

I'll sweep the stardust for you

La-la-lu, la-la-lu

Little soft, fluffy sleeper

Here comes a pink cloud for you”

Master Eraqus sang softly and smoothly, Ventus stopped trembling at hearing his voice, it was comforting. Ven could almost swear he had an experience like this once, but he could not recall how or when, only the sensation. He was beginning to feel his eyes grow heavy once more, struggling to keep them open.

This feeling… I remember it from somewhere. My memories are all gone but- but this feeling… I know it from somewhere… or someone..? It’s nice… I feel safe…

“La-la-lu, la-la-lu

Little wandering angel

Fold up your wings for tonight

La-la-lu, la-la-lu

And may love be your keeper

La-la-lu, la-la-lu, la-la-lu…”

I feel sleepy again… but I don’t feel scared anymore for some reason… this is nice, it’s dark with my eyes closed but there’s something warm and kind there. It’s not dark and scary anymore. It feels good… I don’t wanna leave now… it’s peaceful. There’s no monsters here… Thank you, Master Eraqus…

Eraqus continued his singing and gentle, rhythmic swaying, Ventus’s eyes were finally closed, only his soft breathing and dried tear tracks were what remained, he was asleep. His body grew heavy with sleep but Eraqus did not mind, it was a feeling he had become accustomed to after Terra and Aqua. It was a feeling, a sensation he missed once the other two grew up.

“Looks like someone is now asleep,” Eraqus chuckled softly, running a free hand through Ven’s soft blond hair. “Goodnight my littlest star sweeper, dream of more pleasant things now, let no heartless or monsters plague your dreams anymore…”

….

“Welcome home, Ventus…”

This story was loosely based on fanart I saw back in I believe 2017 and never found again. If anyone remembers that fanart of Eraqus singing this lullaby to Ventus and has also been looking for it again, you are not alone!

For background, I used to work in Special Education as a volunteer teacher so these accommodations are based on what I believe he would need to succeed. Some of you may be wondering what an IEP or 504 Plan is, I know, big words and big number. But it is actually a lot easier to understand than you may think!

An IEP provides specialized instruction, while a 504 Plan provides accommodations to your student. What is specialized instruction? Simple, it basically helps students access the curriculum and contains annual goals and progress tracking. The student will also be assigned a “case manager” for their IEP meetings. As for 504 Plans, it provides accommodations to help students access the general education curriculum. However, it does NOT require specialized instruction, of course it can be flexible and students CAN have both.

I think his accommodations would be the following as someone who knows the system:

Extra time on tests and quizzes, sometimes he needs extra time to complete his tests and this accommodation will help him with that. By allowing him extra time on tests/quizzes he can put more effort in and not feel rushed.

Turning assignments/homework in past the due date, this will help him work on his homework more in depth and even ask questions about it so he can be able to succeed in his tasks.

Copy of the teacher’s notes, this will give him the resources to do his assignments and even help him with his studying.

Being allowed to use a calculator for math related assignments, this should be self explanatory, if he struggles with basic algebra (which is canon) he may require this accommodation.

Access to a speech therapist, given his background with his behaviour this may be a great opportunity for him to improve and work on his overall communication skills so he can work on controlling outbursts and overall communication.

Let me know if you want to see me go through the other TWST boys and what their IEP/504 Plans might be! I’d happily do them!

Five years of magic and memories and hope that we will be blessed with many more years to come with our beloved boys and this incredible game and fandom. Where has the time gone, eh? It feels like it was just March of 2020, doesn’t it? Time truly does fly when you are having fun and making memories.

Now what stands out with this new and unique background on the new TWST JP Anniversary Art?

I think this may actually be what they’re doing this year, paying tribute to Walt Disney! It would make sense- anime is 2D animation, Walt started with 2D animation and that’s what made Disney grow- their animation! The anime is coming out this year in October on Disney+ and what better way to say thank you to Walt than bring in a reference to his animation studio and the imagineers behind the magic that lives on today. Look closely in the image and you’ll see that what’s behind the anniversary logo is actually the Disney Animation Studio- or at least an equivalent to it!

See here:

This has all happened before…

Last year we were given the chance to visit the studio in an event, the Red Carpet event featuring Vil, Ace, Azul, and Jamil. We got to visit the studio that started it all and learn the history behind the original filmmaking of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. The event focused on Vil promoting the new live action movie The Beautiful Queen (their version of the live action Snow White). Snow White’s Live Action adaptation starring Rachel Zegler as Snow White and Gal Gadot as The Evil Queen (The Beautiful Queen) will premiere on March 21st of 2025, this year.

Read the event translations here

History of Snow White and its Connection to the TWST Story…

In the Red Carpet event (set to release on the EN server this month) we get to learn the history of the Walt Disney journey in filmmaking and how cutting edge technology of the time helped him become one of the most well known and influential people of all time in the world of film and animation, paving the way for others in the future of filmmaking, art, and animation.

The event itself was a love letter to Walt and the worlds and stories he brought to life. This was a time of firsts, a time of trial and error, but what came from it was spectacular- the world’s first full length feature film in colour was born. Snow White and the Seven Dwarves premiered in 1937 and showed the world what good ol’ fashioned American ingenuity could do- create a masterpiece that will be cherished forever.

See Here:

But, did you know that TWST has shown its deep ties to the classic film in more ways than one? No, we are not just talking about the mirror and the Pomefiore dorm, but Crowley, who has worn that stupidity hilarious Hawaiian shirt with apples, flowers, and crows (Pomefiore translates to “apple flower” by combining the French word for apple and the Italian word for flower), and the interesting voice line that incorporated the reference to 1937. No, you did not imagine it, he does indeed say 1,937. I could dive into more BUT that is for another post at another time….. stay (twist) tuned!

See Here:

I think, truly, that this may be an anniversary event that focuses more on the story aspect of the game’s history, one that ties these classic stories in more and deeper than already. Of course, there is still time before the event happens and we learn more but it’s definitely on the table.

What are your thoughts on this? Let me know with your reblogs and comments! I’d love to see your take!

I know I for one am looking forward to what is to come, I have high hopes for this anniversary celebration~

Sometimes Malleus’s emotions were so incredibly powerful the weather around him reacted, sometimes a light rain, other times a full on category five hurricane that would have dwarfed the others the weather reporters would talk about. Malleus was, to many, an odd fellow, he was a prince, yes, but one not many knew much of. They knew he was powerful but they seemed to ignore the other aspects of him, a sweet and gentle creature who would get all giddy over an invitation or would get upset if his Gao Gao Dragon Kun broke. Lucian knew this, it was something that was so adorable about Malleus, what he loved so much, though sometimes Malleus had a hard time bringing his emotions forward through verbal communication, it was instantly magic, nothing else.

Around noon when everyone was making their way to the cafeteria for lunch or a snack, Lucian noticed flurries through the window, students coming in from the outside all spoke up as well about the sudden snow in the middle of October, yes, the forecast said there was a tad bit of a nip in the air because of the ocean effect and the air currents but not cold enough to snow, at least not until November. Sage Island was situated in a zone that could get one of two extremes, extreme winter weather or extreme summer temperatures in June to about mid August so snow was definitely an oddity in October when the average for the month was in the mid fifties to low sixties.

“Malleus… This isn’t good, if he's in a mood again a blizzard is not too far off- which means it must be pretty bad to get him all worked up like this…” Lucian mumbled to himself, having a feeling where the draconic fae was hiding this time- the gargoyle statues on the top of the school, likely took the rooftop entrance from the north tower.

Lucian ran off down the hall and out to the courtyard, a loud gust of wind sounded and suddenly a blizzard. Right on time, as per usual with Malleus. Blizzard? Check. High winds? On time. Hurricane? Probably at 5pm if this doesn’t stop. Earthquake? Sometime before 7pm if the worst happens. Would not be the first time Malleus caused an earthquake and a volcanic eruption from his anger, Lucian read that in a book, a massive dormant, almost extinct volcano in the Briar Valley erupted because of Malleus. Thankfully it was on a contained small island far from the mainland but the fact remains he caused it because of his anger issues.

Soon enough Lucian made it to the top of the school, there he was, standing by one of the gargoyles looking absolutely angry, he was fuming over something, his phone at his feet, shattered of course. Something was terribly wrong, it was no secret.

“Malleus? What's going on? Your phone is shattered, again, and there’s a blizzard that’s practically biblical level… What's troubling you?” Lucian asked softly, stroking his arm gently.

“These humans…. I downloaded this “app” thing that Diamond spoke of- magical camera..? Magicam, yes, odd name, and I’m being bombarded with posts- conspiracies and slander of not only myself but the people I hold dear. People speak ill of you, Child of the Moon, it infuriates me to no end….”

Lucian sighed knowingly, not the first time something like this occurred and most certainly not the last. It was the internet and people would say whatever they wanted to make themselves come across as big and powerful when in reality they were puny knuckleheads behind their screens doing whatever they wanted from their rooms.

“Malleus, this is the internet, honestly, stuff like this happens all the time and it’s better to ignore than to engage, people talk, that's just how it is. We might not like it but it’s there. Sometimes ignoring is best.” Lucian hugs him from behind, immediately the blizzard calms to a light snowfall. “And honestly? If you have stuff being posted about you that makes you popular, famous even, and hey, you are a hotshot in the world of magic, top dragon. Leaderboard! So of course people are going to say stuff and 99% of the time it’s because they are jealous.”

Malleus laughed at that, humans jealous of him? Please, that was almost a joke itself and a rather good one at that.

“Hmph, if you say so, child of the moon, I mean, you know more about the online environment than I do, in fact, I dare say you might be the one I should be seeking counsel for regarding these topics. One post I saw was someone saying I had a crush on you- I would never hurt you!”

Lucian burst out laughing, wheezing even, oh of course this dragon thought that meant something far worse than it was meant to be, of course he would.

“Malleus! Oh gods… oh Great Seven! Oh man… that means you like me! That’s all it means! Not that you want to squash me! BUAHAHAHAHAHA!” Lucian laughed. “What did the other one say?”

“Well, since you find this ever so amusing here it is, they said they believed I am a “GOAT”, I find that quite offensive. I know I have horns but this is ridiculous.” He pouted.

Lucian laughed even harder, of course he would think something differently with that too. “Oh, oh Malleus… GOAT means Greatest Of All Time! That’s a compliment! It’s an acronym for that! Not an insult!”

“Hmph… I am great, aren’t I, pup?” Oh that got him, his ego skyrocketed from there and that smirk was not leaving his face anytime soon that's for sure. “Being one of the top five mages in the world certainly does make one the… GOAT…? Yes..? Did I use that correctly?”

“Yeah! You got the hang of it! Now tell me another one they said and I’ll see if I can help you out.”

“One said that you slay, I sure hope you’d never slay me! Because if you even attempt I’d-”

“Woah! Woah! Malleus! Hold on a second!” Lucian stops him, chuckling a little. “That just means I look good! Slay is slang for looking great! That’s all! It has nothing to do with taking you down so you can stop blowing smoke rings from your nostrils, you big cranky dragon.”

Malleus has a sigh of relief, his shoulders dropping in relief, clearly trying to calm down from that bout of anger. He did not want to end up in the history books that way.

“Let me guess, another one was something to do with smash..?” Lucian asked with a smirk, laughing a little.

“Yes, as a matter of fact it was! I will have you know I’d never harm you! I could never hurt you! The mere thought sends me into a fit of shock and disbelief that someone would even suggest that I could!”

“Malleus, I’m going to hold your hand when I tell you this… Smash means something much, MUCH different and I can assure you that when it clicks in your head you will understand completely. It has nothing to do with hurting me.” Lucian chuckles, taking his hand in his own, genuinely trying not to wheeze like a tea kettle.

“Alright, do spill it, I have a feeling you are keeping me in suspense for a reason so out with it.” Malleus sighed, having a bad idea.

“No, no, I think you should take a guess here. Go and give it a try, Malleus….”

“A game..? Is it one I need to ask Shroud about?” Lucian shakes his head laughing. “No? Hmm… is it food..? Perhaps a form of frozen dessert? No? Hmm…”

Oh this was absolutely priceless, if Cater or Idia were there on the rooftop now they would be on the ground laughing so hard that they might combust on the spot from sheer laughter overload. Malleus kept going down the list of possible things, even thinking it was a form of literature or some newly discovered study tactic, even a dance but nothing. Lucian was enjoying saying no even more, the look of confused frustration on his face was evident and made the situation even more worthwhile given how hard he was struggling with everything.

“Malleus, do you give up yet or are you still trying to figure it out you silly dragon?”

“I’m thinking, Child of the Moon, I’m thinking and I’m not about to cave in just yet, don’t even think about giving me a hint.”

“Alright! No hints and no giving up for you- just let me know when you do want to throw in the towel because I have a feeling it’s only a matter of time for you.”

“Fine, do tell me, I think I’ve about had enough of trying to guess.”

Lucian smirks, telling him everything, Malleus’s face turns bright red and a goofy grin spreads across his face,

“Child of the Moon… I will be waiting for you in my quarters… don’t dawdle.” He smirks, disappearing in a puff of green fireflies.

“Oh Great Sevens what can of worms did I open this time…? I’m going to be in for it for sure…”
