Silver and Malleus as nobody mourns the wicked is great but have you ever thought..
Kalim and Jamil post book 4. Hear me out:
—
No one mourns the wicked:
(The Scarabia dorm canonically shunning/hating Jamil for everything that went down, calling for him to be demoted from Vice Housewarden. Jamil likely also could of faced SEVERE consequences from his family and the Al-Asims, if not for…)
No, one mourns the wicked:
(Kalim. He likely covered everything up from his and Jamils family, leaving the fact Kalim was the one targeted unknown, or who it was at all, as they did not receive a summons/lawsuit , therefore can be worded as “one” due to their lack of knowing who it was that forgave Jamil.)
Know, one mourns the wicked:
(Back to Scarabia, When the students called for Jamils demotion from Vice Housewarden (Hell, I can imagine they wanted to kick him out of the dorm too), Kalim pushed back and allowed Jamil to keep his position as his Vice.
So then, Scarabia “knows” who mourns the “wicked”. It can go unsaid for this verse simply because it’s obvious. If it wasn’t Kalim, Jamil wouldn’t be the Vice Housewarden anymore, and might literally be dead (execution for attempt on Kalims life), imprisoned for same reasons as previous, or pulled from the school. It quite literally couldn’t be anyone BUT Kalim if Jamils still in Scarabia.)
Know, one mourns, The Wicked:
(Kalim obviously felt extremely guilty for being ignorant to and/or subconsciously trying to deny Jamils feelings to protect himself from the truth, aswell as feeling guilty for that fact he never knew Jamil was being forced to pretend to be worse than Kalim their whole lives, leading to Jamils suffering.
Therefore Kalim thinking of himself as “the wicked” for not being there for Jamil.)
Yea :)
(I don’t have the talent to draw/animate this so might aswell give y’all writers and artists inspiration. Anyway I’ll make my escape before y’all kill me BYEE)
Bro got beat up with 100k Gold thingamabobs that shit gotta HURT
The bling bout to add some swing to that punch
kalim has this bracelet on his left hand and a bunch of dangles on his right but i can't even imagine being sucker punched with those on the face. let alone REPEATEDLY like brotha eugh being beaten up with some shingalingngaling
IM HERE YIPPEEEEEE CHENYA
(Twstober Masterlist)
his pants sucked the energy out of me
IM GLAD YOU LIKE IT :D
Heyo! Its Che’nya Anon again!
So I’ve been seeing your Deity AU and my brain is back again to put it into a Open World RPG (+ Hidden Otome Routes obviously ) Format!
Why? Maybe I’m insane, probably. Is it obvious I relate to Idia a shit ton? Anyway, Here goes:
—-
Your journey begins in a big town, not big enough for a city, exactly, but not overly obsolete.
Many different ecosystems exist nearby, strangely enough. flower filled wildlands, A Savanna, the Ocean side, a small desert, a beautiful forest, and more.
By interacting with NPC’s, or just running around the map, you can find Shrines.
If you choose to have NPC’s tell you rumors, each NPC respectfully tells their own.
After all, history is often jumbled as it passes through time.
The Lawyer and the Gambler speak of four, or perhaps five shrines in the flowery wonderland—Ah, I mean Wildland. Some even say a sixth exists, but it could be not all there itself anymore, y’know?
If you manage to get on their good side, the Gym Trainer and A Man in the Alley tell of Ruins lost to the Savanna’s Sand. Some even say a Prince with ears of a Lion resides in one.
Perhaps the Merchant and the Fisherman may tell of Shrines that the ocean breeze always reaches…er..or so they heard. Oh! Before you leave, would you like to buy the catch of the day? Its Shrimp, if you’re interested.
Ask the Bank Teller or the Snake Caretaker, and they may share a tale of two shrines among the desert sands. Some say an amassment of treasure lies within one. A Cave of Wonders, if you will.
Ponder about the shrines to the Farmer or the Hairdresser, and they might tell you about something they heard going around the block, apparently, a shrine dedicated to a Deity of Beauty lies deep within the woods.
Find the Gamer, the Mechanic or the Miner, and if you’re lucky, they’ll show you a lead to a long forgotten underground shrine. I mean, if you’re walking down to hell, might aswell find a rest stop, right?
Finally, the Historian with Strange Red eyes may just mention a set of shrines up the mountain where many are too frightened to go. A lonely deity sits at the top. Or so they say, not like he would 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐥𝐲 know, my dear.
Now, grabbing a few things before, you embark on your journey.
In the Wildlands, the first shrine’s you likely happen upon are a set of two.
The Deity of Mischief and Righteousness, and The Deity of Honesty and, once, if rumors held true, Hand to Hand Combat aswell.
Both shared one thing they ruled upon: Loyalty. Or so the near destroyed inscription says
When you enter, it’s quite easy to notice certain differences. One side has a Cool Palette, Blues and Greys, While the other bombards the eye with Reds and Oranges. Both have Black running down the middle and edges, proving the shrines building to be one in the same.
Ah! One thing, dear player: Everytime you clean a temple, Set (Correct to Deity) Offerings, and light an incense or two, you gain one of three..
Oh, hm, strange, Did you set it to 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 romantic route for most? No? Ah, Must be a Glitch.
Anywhom, you gain Affection, Loyalty and Favor points. Certain deities will only physically appear once you reach certain levels of each, all differing dependent on the deity.
If I may, just another quick tip, I promise, I would recommend using whatever clues you may find to choose wisely on which offerings and scents of incense you bring, you can loose or gain extra points with this.
So, back to our travels, These two have the easiest set to earn the points, and their physical blessings can be quite useful to reach the other temples and Shrines. Sharper Reflexes and Stamina respectively.
Ace, you soon learn, is as his title suggests, a mischief maker, where as his Counterpart, Deuce, is more straightforward and kind.
Whenever you show at the shrine, Deuce is immediately at your side, like a loyal canine friend, whereas Ace takes his sweet time, lounging around, quite like a cat.
Both often spend time trying to earn your favor (and possibly attention) while you’re there, usually ending in bickering or teasing with you as the rope in their tug of war.
Sometimes, you’ll see a German Shepherd and its Fox..cat..thing(???) Companion following you around town while you run errands, getting into little squabbles here and there, leaving you to break them up.
The two deities got strangely sheepish when you mentioned they reminded you of them, but maybe it’s nothing.
Oh! Perhaps try keeping the two of spades and ace of hearts cards they gift you in your pocket, it may prove useful to summon them outside of the shrine if you’re in need of help, or just simply a fun day of hijinks.
The next shrine is located much further off from the others, the cerulean glow of the night sky framing it by the time you make your way there.
The Deity of Vocal Influence and Masks, often prayed to in hopes of success in public speech, important discussions or trade deals.
Once you enter, it seems gloomy before you turn the flashlight from your phone on.
Marble white pillars with diamond symbols hold the falling temple together, and if you listen close, perhaps you may hear a guitar, playing a solemn tune.
Unfortunately, this version of the shrine you may only see once per play through. After this, the Deity’s llusion will take affect.
As you finish cleaning and setting your incense and offering, the weariness brought by your travel here gets to you, and a short nap turns into an overnight stay in the hollowness of the shrine.
Once you awaken, the shrine brims with light, its gloomy atmosphere now replaced by a cheeriness that feels unnatural, or maybe thats just the mold speaking.
Cater, you may just learn, will appear in any photo you take, even if the shrine itself has not reached a reveal level yet. If you leave a camera as an offering, you will find it filled with many beautiful photos, and a selfie of his here and there.
He is a charismatic deity, joking around, discussing many things yet nothing all at once, and quite loves to hear of whatever modern drama, celebrity or otherwise, you can find. Play a drama movie or show on your phone and bring a snack to share. He’ll likely be more invested in it than you are by the end of your visit.
You’ll soon discover you may just be better at talking to others then before, or find diamond themed items to bring you good luck.
Oh and, Is it just me, or has that orange hare always followed you to work? No? Huh, weird.
If you smell a sweet, freshly baked dessert like smell while traveling, or a bear seemingly trying to lead you somewhere, follow it, and you’ll find a shrine almost camouflaged amongst the trees.
Clover’s surround the inside and out, and the Deity of the Hearth surely knows how to make the shrine feel homey.
The greens and browns bring an almost earthy feel to it, large oak trees piecing through the cracks in the walls, and an old kitchen far in the back.
Strangely, there seems to be a freshly baked treat, your favorite, waiting for you the day after you clean up the shrine and leave your first offering.
It tastes nostalgic, in a way. As if you were experiencing it for the first time again. You speak a thanks out loud to what you see as nothing, but don’t worry, it was heard.
You’ll see many bears around the area, but there is nothing to fear.
If anything, they are quite helpful, bringing you the broom you couldn’t seem to find, giving you a small bouquet of clovers, showing you where a recipe book just perfectly fitting your tastes seemed loosely buried, or letting you rest your weary head on their soft fur.
If someone were to bear (ha) any ill intent towards you, following you through the woods, whether you are aware or not, these bears will not be as kind.
Soon, you will meet their guardian, and the Deity of this Shrine: Trey.
He’s caring, always willing to listen to your woes, and give advice, or lend a hand. With housework for example, or uh, well it seems like it was him, anyway. How else did the dishes get done on their own, or the fresh ingredients find their way onto the kitchen counter?
Originally, you may struggle to open the largest of the shrines, but look to its shadow, and you’ll find an arrow pointing up a tree.
On that tree, a Grinning Bobcat leisurely lays in the shade, coax it down, and it will lead you to an upside down shrine.
The Deity of the Shrine resides over Reality and Illusion, rumored to be one of the most powerful, yet tricky deities to deal with.
Trippy is truly the only way to describe this shrine, it’s almost difficult to believe yourself sober once you waltz in, furniture upon the walls and ceiling, arrows pointing in every which directions, fake doors, and finally, hypnotic swirls of lavender, baby blue and bright pops of magenta that end up leaving your poor eyes in pain.
Many, I mean MANY feline creatures have taken host to this shrine, from the small tabby to even..is that actually a Cheetah? Nope, you must be seeing things.
Cats will soon become part of your daily life, whether you’re a fan or not. You never realized just how many stray cats live in your area until now, as they’re following you around in a mass group or watching from the shadows.
Sometimes, you’ll find one bringing you a wad of cash from who knows where just when you didn’t have the money for a snack, or someone who was a tad too rude to you showing up with more cat scratches then one could count the next day.
Che’nya, or Artemiy Artemiyevich Pinker, if you were able to catch that, is just as strange as his shrine, often giving you a riddle or two the second you walk in, and dropping a cat pun in nearly every conversation.
Sometimes, he’ll appear behind you and spook you, catching you before you hit the ground while laughing happily, fluffy tail leisurely wrapping around your torso.
Eventually, He’ll help you to the entrance of the large shrine, only to vanish into thin air the next moment.
The final shrine of the wildlands has Osiria Roses growing in crevices and corners, but despite the elegant roses, cute hedgehogs and gold trimmed pillars, the air within the shrine exerts a feeling of pressure and raw power upon first entry.
You have entered the Shrine of the Deity of Order, you do not know the rules here, but you must abide by them. Tread Carefully.
One of the most difficult shrine to earn points for, but one of the easiest to earn a reveal level for as unlike the others, no, a simple clean and offering will not do, and if you do it purposefully wrong, he’ll reveal himself intending to tell you off, then seemingly thinking better of it, vanishing once more.
Although he has reflected in his many years of solitude, some habits are simply hard to break. So work with him a little.
He’s one of the surprisingly shyer deities, sending a flamingo to deliver you letters and a rose instead of talking to you directly in the beginning. As you send them to and fro, you slowly learn more about him, and with a little time, you will learn his name.
Riddle. A strange name, but everyone in the wildlands is strange, really.
Sometimes, he’ll join you in tending to the hedgehogs, telling each name he gave them, or read aloud to you if you bring a book, sometimes dropping his own commentary on the protagonist if they sufficiently annoy him enough.
Should you run into any legal issues, and happen to offhandly mention this, you seemingly are always dealt the winning hand, per se.
Be it your bad boss, an ex-lover, or even someone with more money then sense, if they can be found guilty of any crime, they will be.
(This is getting kind of long and it’s near midnight in my timezone, so I’ll cut it off here for now! I referenced some of the fics you wrote aswell! I might write more of this in your inbox if you’re ok with that! Enjoy : D )
CHE’NYA ANON THIS IS INSANE I LOVE IT???? BRO I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW WHAT TO ADD TO IT, SORRY ITS BEEN MARINATING IN MY ASKBOX FOR SO LONG😭😭😭
YOU SHOULD WRITE YOUR OWN FIC ON THIS AT THIS POINT- MAKE THIS A GAME OH MY GOODNESS… CHE’NYA ANON YOU COME INTO MY INBOX AND COOK EVERYTIME I AM LEFT FLABBERGASTED HEISNSMSMSM
Ok so with the New Yuu being revealed to be alot like Kalim, basically Jamils opposite (while also being an actress, and as we know Jamil is acting during almost the entirety of Book 4 so this matches up well) this proves that the Yuus are the opposite or parallel their respective overblotter in some way.
Idias will probably be some very cheery/Maybe Anxious otaku +robots nerd whos lost alot of people in their life in gruesome or depressing ways but has learned to accept it and continue marching on.
Or to strike the gut, a younger kid who looks like (minus the fire) and acts exactly like Ortho.
Malleus’s might be someone who has a naturally spooky appearance/ was very lonely in their homeworld, and now (as we would’ve reached book7) has an absurd amount of friends, yet still is thinking about going home because their close with their parents./ Or their parents/guardian were close to passing when they left and they want to say goodbye.
So whats Vils gonna be? Because my first thoughts was a Yuu that Really Fucking Ugly, messy, silly and imperfect whilst very self actualized and confident in themselves + really beloved by everyone anyway, and because at this point in time they would have been seen as a hero for solving 4 overblots, Vil would probably be super annoyed at how much attention and praise they receive by just doing good deeds.
My other thought was a carbon copy of Neige, but that would be a bit basic. Unfortunately I can definitely see them going that route.
Ok but imagine pulling up to deliver something to a random ass cottage in the woods bcs some weirdo with black and pink hair purchased it and then you see a gigantic dragon playing with two tiny children.
Like the TERROR of some poor underpaid delivery guy.
@hanafubukki this is your fault. Hana. This is your fault Hana. HANA.
(I'm joking of course I love you)
Anyway have a BIG brother Mal 🥰
Ace would be from NJ but swear up and down he’s a New Yorker.
That, or He lives in Manhattan, and Deuce lives in the Bronx.
For some reason Trey gives Georgia vibes to me. Just the Southern Hospitality he gives off ig. He LOVES hiding the plastic baby in Mardi Gras cakes in super obscure parts of the cake. Either Georgia or Mississippi for him.
Jamil also gives Georgia but Arizona or Montana both feel like options for him aswell.
I could see Floyd in Maine, but I do think Florida suits him better in terms of chaos.
Che’nya gives maybe Boston (Massachusetts) ? Definitely a city. That or Ohio for self explanatory reasons.
I’m giving Vil’s hometown being in Idaho sheerly because POTATOS, and you can drive to Cali from there (long drive though)
Rollo gets Utah for self explanatory reasons aswell.
Jade gets North and South Carolina because he would LOVE the mountains there. Can confirm since I unfortunately was forced to live on them for two years.
Kalim gets California, Maine or New Hampshire because beaches and rich people. That or Montana and no I don’t know why.
Lilia in Pennsylvania sheerly because he misread it was Transylvania and just went with it.
Azul is Las Vegas. (Nevada) It’s the gambling capital what can I say.
I’m giving Idia Alaska so he has an excuse to stay inside, you’re welcome, Idia.
Another one I can’t explain: Sebek with Washington. Or Illinois
Thats all I can think of rn.
Hey hey! American Twst players!
I had this really random idea:
Let's assign Twst Characters to states but you have to help me because other than "Florida Man is always up to crazy shit" and "Religious yeehaw ahh texas" (which is probably EXTREMELY stereotypical and I do apologize for that), I don't know much about the USA.
So you'll assign the characters (you can add an explanation if you want) and I'll cook smth up ^^
Leona and Garfield are one in the same.
I will not be taking objections at this time.
I would wholeheartedly believe you
Team nap time
YFFHC IM SO GLAD YOU LIKKKEEEE YOUR FICS ARE A TOTAL INSPO TO ME!
IM A YAPPER SO PREPARE BECAUSE MY ANSWERS ARE LONG AF AND WILL BOUNCE AROUND
My writing may be cooking but my actual conversational self is a kitchen fire.
(Do not let the Aroacespec psychological horror nerd write yandere fics unless you wish for them to present you a four course meal)
ANYWAY HERES MY ANSWERS!
1: Blue works! And She/They/It. Pretty much anything but he.
2: Che’nya as you’ve long since heard me rant before, but fun fact! Che’nya is how I found twst!
Also, as i’ve said before, so PERFECTLY hidden as an op character, leaving the possibility of never actually being able to know he’s around you.
Lilia is also in my favorites! I actually knew nothing about him until I started writing something around when book 7 came out, and he grew on me! I also get to use my historic knowledge when writing him!!!
He’s also so ultimately terrifying? Like, in my opinion, he tops Rook in that regard sheerly because what he lacks in stalkerness he has in knowledge and connections. Also, this man can beat MALLEUS FUCKING DRACONIA in a fight. He’s the perfect goofy goober that can actually commit atrocities and you’d never know.
Speaking of, Malleus is also among my favorites, because DRAGON but also a little bit of a dork. Also, fucking TERRIFYING in this sense that like…you’re cooked if you make a break for it?? Or if you’re like me and have EXTREMELY wonky luck that causes you to almost die in some creative way every week, you’re literally going to end up in the equivalent of bubble wrap.
Also why does nobody take Fae rules into account for Mal and Lilia??? Like our dumbass tells them our real name and they can lowkey puppet us PHYSICALLY?? Among other things.
Rook sheerly got up in my favorites because he never ceases to have me not laughing my ass off or DEATHLY concerned.
He’s also very interesting in the sense that if, hypothetically, you were being hunted, play your cards right, and you might buy yourself time.
I’m mildly crazy and LOVE strategic mind games or mental tomfuckery in general—
. (I may or may not have deadass gotten nerfed by my War Crimes and War Strats teacher from being the strategist for a week because he wanted to give the other team a chance. (My new schools curriculum for classes of our choice is wild before you even say it, we have Archery, Dinosaur History (????) LGBTQ+ History, Cryptozoology, AND I KID YOU NOT MY PRINCIPAL IS NAMED MISS CROWLEY I LITERALLY DIED WHEN I FOUND OUT. I also got extra credit on a creative writing assignment for “accurate depictions of trauma” and my Theater Teacher decided she hated me on sight. I’m literally Spending my first full year back from hell in a madtown send help/jk)
So I actively do think about the odds of escape, how to do so, connections, weaknesses.
Rooks only fucking know weakness is GARLIC. (Learned from Ruggie during beanfest) So he gives me a challenge mentally, all of the above do.
I like Riddle aswell mostly because we are complete opposites (Overbearingly Strict Abusive Mom vs Strict yet nearly Absent Mom core) yet both strict with our ideas of Rules because of that and I’ve already noted down atleast 5 ways I could stump him on rules pre-overblot, mostly via legal things and NRC base rules.
Also outside the norm timeline, especially for horror, he’s EXTREMELY interesting because of the Queen of Hearts Motif.
Now Idia and Ortho? Genius and his no.1 fan/wingman? As a sibling myself, I have a more Jamil + Najimia dynamic with my sister, but I love the take on “Siblings who are super close” with the twist of “also both batshit crazy in their own ways.”
Idia is great for alot of reasons, and admittedly I do get 90% of the gaming references and lingo he says/uses. But also? Literally runs hell??? Kinda??? The insane technology of that world and the talent for it??? The possibilities are endless.
Ortho is more on my goofy goobers list, mostly because his penchant for randomized violence makes me laugh. How do you get a cat down from a tree when you can literally fly? Apparently LAZER BEAM THAT B*TCH ASS TREE DOWN. RIGHT INFRONT OF THE CATS OWNER WHO IS ALSO YOUR BROTHERS TEACHER.
Jade gets an honorable mention because the mindgames go hard, plus he’s so sadistic but once you figure that out it is TOO LATE FOR YOU. Also I lowkey think I would get yoinked because I was forced to live in the mountains of Georgia for a year against my will (LONNGG Story) with a tent for 3 months, then a tarp, a sleeping bag and a dream. The second I drop that info i’m cooked.
Now, some of my goofy goobers?? My sillies?
Ace to start with. Although he’s canonically very smart when he tries, he gets mischaracterized because of of his shenanigans with Deuce, but they are phenomenal entertaining. Also his whole “Haha—Unless..??” shit and seemingly absolute love for the one bed trope is silly. Plus he’s the true most normal teenage boy character in the cast. (Don’t let Trey deceive you that man is NOT normal. Bro is the Tooth Fairy over here.)
Kalim holds a special place in my heart because he is the first character I picked, and its very rare for me to find characters with the similar..idk what to call it?? as me (constantly almost dying, pretending its all cool but actively being terrified something will happen the second you leave the house.) (Me, Kalim, Yuu and Bennett being that one spiderman meme)
He’s also just so sweet. He reminds me of being like…nicely wrapped in honey? Did you know Honey never expires, but it does grow brittle, trapping everything inside it in that gold, slow moving sweetness for eternity?
Finally, Sebek, sheerly because I know I would be the BANE of his existence. I’m not crazy strong or a fast runner but if theres a few things I’m good at its debates, finding loopholes and running mental circles around to prove a contradiction. I also figured out one very simple way of toning down his Malleus-simping while still letting him yap. Just point out the effects he’s having on Malleus’s life, and how he may be making it more difficult for him to make friends.
Also that nobody is legally required to do Jack Shit for him unless they are in Briar Valley. And pointing out that by trying to make everyone move their life for Malleus, he’s effectively isolating him by treating him as if he’s better, making it insanely difficult to casually commune with others, and unintentionally making it seem as if Mal gave those orders to drop everything for him, which in turn would make others think he’s a jerk. They don’t know him personally like Sebek does, nor do they carry the values of their homeland. Therefore Sebek IS usually the first impression. Don’t you realize you’re making his life harder?
Use a mental loop at the end by pointing out that if you/I hypothetically started yelling for every to move around for Leona for example, especially when they aren’t in the Sunset Savanna, wait Sebek him to contradict and state thats foolish, then point out thats EXACTLY what he does with Mal, and let the rest figure itself out.
It’s ok to simp Sebek but don’t make it other people’s problem.
I could go on but now that I’m writing it for myself I realize I may actually mentally shatter him.
Favorite Outfit? Call me basic but Deuce Star Sending and Ortho Fairy Gala on the aesthetic scale. THEY LOOK FUCKING ETHEREAL? And Ortho Fairy Gala IDIA YOU COOKED WITH THAT ONE. On the personal scale : Lilia’s Dorm uni + Spectral Soiree, and Idias Harveston outfit. IDIA WITH HIS HAIR IN A PONYTAIL OR BRAID JUST LOOKS PHENOMENAL. Lilia just looks great in both but that Cape is giving me and Edna Mode a heart attack.
Honorables mention to Beanfest Rook for being one of 3 cards I think Rook looks good in (I beef with his haircut) and Riddles Dorm Uni, If I didn’t want to throw hands over a ALL WHITE FUCKING UNIFORM IN A DORM WITH A SHIT TON OF PAINT???? Also Che’nyas Boots are actually really cool. The detail on them is INSANE.
(Fun fact: If you looked at Glomas Azul from behind, the feathers make a jesters cap shape)
Favorite Candy? UGH AS A CHRONIC SWEETS PERSON I HATE TO CHOOSE BUT:
Chocolate Based: Reese’s or those fancy ass Liquor Chocolate Orb things.
Fruit Based: Hi-Chews and Fruit Tootsie Rolls.
Seasonal: Pumpkin Flavored ANYTHING. The only time I eat pie is Pumpkin pie (I have a vendetta against fruit chunks in dessets) or Peppermint stuff!
So Yea! What about you : D
HDGHGVJJHV I JUST REALIZED WE’RE MOOTS NOW?! I FEEL SO BLESSED BRO YOU LITERALLY INSPIRED ME TO WRITE TWST STUFF
As I’m literally losing my mind over this I’m gifting you this idea from the AU I found your account from (Nightfall) so here we go!
I chose the three characters I see you write the most recently so yea! Enjoy :D
—————-
__________
Memories.
They shape every part of our lives, what we eat, as we remember what we like, what we avoid, as we remember just the opposite. Their are ones that teach you and the ones that leave you smiling in reminiscence.
No matter how far you run, memories eternally follow you. Even a dementia patient retains bits of muscle memory.
And with the single shot of a gun, a good aimed stab to the heart, and years worth of memories can simply…disappear.
The only thing left of their memories within their perspective is pictures and words, now often locked within a phone. An escape to the days of old or simple entertainment anew.
Perhaps this is why Cater Diamond loves to take pictures when he arrives at the cafe, no matter how bloody his hands and suit may be as he walks in.
Dancing around the counter to reach towards you, to pull you in for a quick picture, leaving the blood of someone you never knew on your apron, he snaps a picture. Another as you deliver his overcomplicated order that no matter how filled it is, still remains a black coffee, staining the teeth of those who drink it.
Inviting you to Heartstabyls infamous casino, taking you to an exclusive high ranking area whilst he somehow is “unaware” someone’s memories become no longer only rooms away.
Just focus on him, yea?
Basking in the proximity, yet just as much worrying if one day you’ll be whose smile only remains on the glow of his screen.
__________________
Perhaps the reason is the same for Lilia Vanrouge, as he appears suddenly behind you whilst you try to clean up the cafe, a tap on your shoulder to the left, a tap on your right, and suddenly your twirled around, a laugh unfitting to his appearance echoing through the room as he locks you in a waltz, humming a song nearly lost to time.
Say, dearie? Did you know of the song Daisy Belle? It was made in 1891, almost forgotten if not for it becoming the first synthesized song around 1961 or so by the machine known as an IMB 704. Its quite often used in horror movies now adays.
It goes something like this.
𝐷𝑎𝑖𝑠𝑦, 𝐷𝑎𝑖𝑠𝑦. 𝐺𝑖𝑣𝑒 𝑚𝑒 𝑦𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑎𝑛𝑠𝑤𝑒𝑟 𝑑𝑜...
Calloused hands slip carefully around your waist as he moves you around, slipping the flower just mentioned into your hair, and with your eyes closed, you can’t see the blood stains on it from his little job before this visit.
He picked it at a strange place, one where the red adorning the once pure white flower was spilled.
𝐼'𝑚 ℎ𝑎𝑙𝑓 𝑐𝑟𝑎𝑧𝑦, 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑙𝑜𝑣𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑦𝑜𝑢....
Although you giggle, he means that lyric with all his heart. You may never know of the fate of those who attempted to rob your quaint workplace, but he remembers the feel of a still beating heart clutched in hand.
And you may never know how much he is willing to give for you to remain by his side. He’d raze the city in your name, just say the word.
𝐼𝑡 𝑤𝑜𝑛'𝑡 𝑏𝑒 𝑎 𝑠𝑡𝑦𝑙𝑖𝑠ℎ 𝑚𝑎𝑟𝑟𝑖𝑎𝑔𝑒.
Unless you wanted it to be, of course. He’s the Vice owner of Diasomnia, you know. Money has long since become no object.
Silver may be grown, but he doubts he would mind a new parent.
𝐼 𝑐𝑎𝑛'𝑡 𝑎𝑓𝑓𝑜𝑟𝑑 𝑎 𝑐𝑎𝑟𝑟𝑖𝑎𝑔𝑒...
The eyebrow raise he receives at that line proves you well aware of how untrue it is to him, but it’s just how the song goes, love. It was true, once upon a time. The life of poverty is not easily forgotten.
𝐵𝑢𝑡 𝑦𝑜𝑢'𝑙𝑙 𝑙𝑜𝑜𝑘 𝑠𝑤𝑒𝑒𝑡, 𝑢𝑝𝑜𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑠𝑒𝑎𝑡~
A single deft hand dips you down , face still oh so close to those shining red eyes as he lightly brushes his thumb across the area near your eye, a small remainder of blood smearing with it.
𝑂𝑓 𝑎 𝑏𝑖𝑐𝑦𝑐𝑙𝑒 𝑚𝑎𝑑𝑒 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑡𝑤𝑜~
_______________
One could compare the memories of Jade Leech to the Bathypelagic zone. The darkest place in the ocean where no light reaches. All must glow on its own if it wishes to see.
So then, What exists within memories of Jade Leech?
Only one person truly knows the answer, and that is Jade Leech himself.
His twin comes close, obviously. But they have different tastes, as most twins do.
Unfortunately for you, my dear, you are within his tastes, and have infested his memories, a small shrimp beginning to adapt to the darkness, beginning to glow like that lights of the cafe at night.
No longer afraid or deterred when he asks for a napkin to clean a bloodied revolver, or batting an eye when Floyd joins him on one of his visits, covered in the life of atleast 20 men. Tiredly whipping out your phone to check if whatever plant Jade brought in this time was poisonous.
Staring down the barrel of a gun as a drunken fool attempts to rob this lovely sanctuary, putting on headphones and hiding in the back to tune out the sickening snap of each of the same fool’s bones.
In this Bathypelagic zone, you have begun to glow.
But does that same glow not attract other predators? A small shrimp in comparison to the unseen giants of the sea?
And Jade Leech is, ultimately, selfish. He wants that light for his own. Not just to remember it, but never have the need to do so.
A light, a light just for him in this abyss we call home.
The longest Moray eels are the Thyrsoidea macrurus. They grow to 3.5 meters, or 11.5 inches, but the largest ever recorded is 3.94 meters, or 13 feet. The largest shrimp? Penaeus monodon, 2.5 meters, or 10 inches.
No matter how big you may grow, he has just that extra inch or three, its far more than enough.
Enough for him to be one step ahead.
Enough to wrap himself around each part of your life.
Enough to suffocate any chance of escape.
Enough to keep that light for himself, Keep it hidden from all those grasping for it, so he may never lose the memory of it.
But don’t worry, no matter how hard times may get, the Nightfall will never go out of business. Although it may be relocated to Octavinelles headquarters.
