Where Every Scroll is a New Adventure

CHAPTER TWO
The walk of silence came to an end as they approached massive double doors that no doubt led to an even bigger room.
‘Like the my old castle back home’ the fair maiden held the doors to comparison, while the one at night raven college have a more dark rusty touch with the grand old wood doors, her castle doors back home were colourful and detailed taking at least over 3 months to make each with details of old stories made of clay and wood, the handles made of gold yet still able to swing open easily even with the sizes they were.
Voices speaking caught her attention and she stopped behind Crowley to wait and listen. He also seemed to be mosey as instead of going in he leaned his ear against the wall. ‘Maybe he wants to know if they realised his absence, he is headmaster after all’
~~~mirror chamber~~~
A short boy with red hair spoke up over the commotion of the other students talking. “We're done with orientation and dorm assignments?” He asked then turned to a group of students near him. “All right, new students—let me be clear. At Heartslabyul House, I am the law. Break the rules, and it's off with your head!” A few people seemed to flinch and step back from him a bit due to his voice raising with the last sentence, even the girl outside the door let out a squeal, although it sounded more like the bugle noise a swan makes.
“Yawn* Well, that ceremony was as boring as ever. I'm going back to the dorm. If you're in Savanaclaw House, follow me.” A boy with feline ears seemed to slope around the place ready to get out, his eyes were dropping, and dropping a bit more now, and now there closed, now he’s letting out what sounds like a snore. His dorm mates sweat dropped at that.
“New students! Allow me to be the first to congratulate you on your achievement. As dorm leader of Octavinelle House, I am honored to have the opportunity to support you in what I hope will be a fulfilling campus experience.” The boy with glasses seems to really like his new dorm mates.
“Hey, does anyone know where the headmage went? He disappeared midway through the ceremony...” a pretty looking boy finally spoke up about the problem at hand, took them long enough to notice.
“Some headmage he is.” A voice came out of a tablet contradicting the headmage’s decision to leave.
“Maybe he had a tummyache?” An innocent looking boy with red eyes proposed an even more innocent answer. Suddenly the old wooden doors burst open and crowley stepped through martching to the front with a leashes up cat and a hooded student following behind him.
‘This must be an all boys academy, I see no women in sight’ the new information did not make the maiden any less nervous, she remembers what the last male sorcerer she encountered did to her.
“I most certainly did not!” Crowley even had the heart to seem offended, listening only when it involves himself.
The short red head spoke up “Ah, speak of the devil.”
Crowley seemed to hate her at this moment “If you must know, I was searching for the new student who'd failed to show for orientation.” All eyes turned to her as she tried to stay standing straight and not quiver under their gaze. “You are the only one who has yet to be assigned a dorm. Step up to the Dark Mirror, and be quick about it. I'll watch your weasel.” He showed her to a mirror, one that looked familiar in the sense that her stomach dropped when her eyes met with its own. Even worse was when it spoke to her.
State thy name.
“Yuu..” she felt unsafe giving her name away yet she had to remain some form of strength to show the sorcerers that she wasn’t weak or to be laughed at.
The Dark Mirror seemed to drag out her name. “Yuu…
The nature of your soul is...” the pause it seemed to take was long enough to keep her there until she had to become a swan again.
“...unclear to me.”
“What did you just say?” Crowley seemed appalled and the few that were talking quietly completely stopped, this was shocking enough that they didn’t even make a gossip riot about it.
“I sense no magical power from this one that they themself own, magic from another running through them in such a crewel way perhaps but other then that, none. Soundless. Colorless. Shapeless. Utterly vacant of their own. Therefore, no dorm would be appropriate.
“Are you suggesting that the black carriage went to receive a person who cannot even use magic?But that is absurd! The student selection process has not erred once in its century of existence! How could this have happened?” His yelling of utter nonsense right in her ear made Yuu raise her neck and push her shoulders back a bit.
Grim seemed to struggle in his restraints before getting out “Mmmph! Nnnrgggh... *GASP!* ME! Let ME have this student's seat!” ‘Again what is so special about this school that he has to get in’ she wouldn’t dare say this aloud as people might get offended.
“Not so fast, you hyperactive weasel!” Crowley scolded.
“Unlike that human, I can actually use magic! So let me be a student here! Look, I'll show you! My spells're the cat's meow!” He seemed to charge up, his blue ear flames rising higher.
“Everyone, get down!” The short red head seemed to realise what was happening before others and ducked taking the nearest student down buy the arm with him. Yuu felt someone else yank her down just like everyone was doing with each other, she turned and saw it was the really pretty boy with the blonde hair and.. colour at the tips..?. His eyes seemed to widen a smidge upon seeing her appearance.
“Your a girl..?” She nodded and told him later before they both stood up and looked back at the pyromaniac of a cat.
“Myaaahhh!” He spewed his fire all around the room.
“AHHHHH! HELP! I'm on fire over here!” The boy with the red eyes was panicking not knowing what to do when one’s butt was on fire. So Yuu quickly walked to him and pulled the sleeve of her jacket down a bit before telling him to stay still and began to hit the fire until it died down. He rubbed his but sore from both the fore and the hitting before looking at her. His eyes also seemed to widen making the same realisation as the pretty boy from before.
“Oh! Your a girl!” He seemed to not mind and smiled at her “thanks for that!”
“Your welcome” she gave him a polite smile ‘maybe there all not so bad’
“Someone catch that blasted animal before it sets the entire school ablaze!” Crowley ordered around.
“Ugh. Can I go now, or...?” The boy that was snoozing around before seemed to wake up at the commotion a while ago and watched with bored eyes.
“Oh? I thought you fancied yourself a hunter. Go and help yourself to that plump little morsel!” The pretty boy seemed to snap at the human feline.
“Too much effort. Do it yourself.” He waved the other off
“Allow me to handle this, Headmage Crowley. If none of you are up to the task of catching a small animal, I will accept the responsibility.” He seemed to want something out of this with the tone of his voice, Yuu learned to pick up on this all the time before becoming a swan when she had her lessons as a princess.
“WTG Azul. Rackin' up those participation credits.” Yuu had stared at the floating flat box that seemed to speak words she hadn’t heard before, the box noticed her and flew away a bit into the shadows averting her attention back to the pyromaniac.
“I'm sorry, were my instructions unclear?!” He seemed to stress out the issue ducking from an incoming fire ball.
“Sigh* Preeetty sure you can handle catching one mangy weasel all on your lonesome there, headmage.”
“He’s right” she mumbled out no one hearing her, although the lion boys ear twitched and he looked a bit smug.
“How many times do I gotta say it? I'm Grim, spellcaster extraordinaire! I am NOT a weasel!” It seemed to irritate Grim more calling him names.
“Aren't you a spunky little fellow? Riddle, would you be so kind...?” The boy with glasses, Azul..? Turned to the short red head who’s name is revealed to be Riddle.
“Furry miscreant. I will abide no rule-breaking. You will be judged by my hand.” Riddle seems to bask in the fact that he could stop someone from breaking many rules that we’re definitely in place, one probably being to not set the place on fire.
He pointed what seemed to be a pen with some sort of gem on its end at grim and shouted “Off With Your Head!” A red and black heart shaped collar with gold trim appeared around grins neck weighing him down a bit.
“MYAH?! What are you doing?!” He flailed around.
“The Queen of Heart's Rule 23: "One must never bring a cat to a formal affair. Your very presence here is a violation of order. You will vacate these premises immediately.” He carried a stern voice and upon seeing him like this Yuu could tell he’s done it before multiple times.
“But I ain't a cat either! Don't try to collar me! I'll burn it right off! Huh...? Wh-what gives? My fire ain't workin'!” He tried doing his little charge up but nothing happened for him, the fire on his ears stayed still and no signs of his magic activating appeared. This calmed Yuu down a fair bit and she relaxed herself letting her shoulders and neck fall not holding them up anymore.
“Until I deign to remove that collar, you won't be using any magic. You're naught but a pet cat now.” Riddle now seemed to calm down a bit and talked more smug and relaxed.
“M-meoWHAT?! I ain't nobody's pet-NOTHING!” Grim shook his head.
“Oh, you've nothing to worry about there. I certainly have no interest in having you as a pet. The collar will disappear once you're removed from campus.” He waved the cat off as if he were nothing but a little grass bug, the maiden could tell he was of high status, a noble definitely with the way he carried home self and the confidence he had in his skill, he must be very well trained.
“Ha-HA! Good show as always, Riddle. You're signature spell locks down any magic. It's quite handy. I've just GOT to have it—ah, I mean, I've just got to have respect for it.” Azul seemed to arise a major suspicion in Yuu, she knows how to point out slip ups in their speech and personality and this guy slipped up.
‘He’s definitely a manipulator, look at how he’s obsessing over riddles magic’
“Yuu! Was I not clear that you are expected to take responsibility for your familiar?” Crowley turned to the girl. “Now discipline your—What's that? It isn't yours?”
“Sir, I’ve told you times before, but this creature is not mine, I don’t even know what he is, I’ve never seen a cat like that, especially one that spews fire” she put the emphasis on the words pointing at Grim and trying not to show how overwhelmed she was with a talking, fire magicking cat.
“Oh...Is that so? *Ahem* Then I shall have it expelled from campus. I shall even spare it from being served as dinner. My, but I AM kind. ...Someone take this away, please.” Dinner, this man was even considering making it dinner
“Nooooo! Let me gooooo! You fools better remember my name! Cause I'm gonna go down in the annals of magic history! Just you wait!” Grim kept yelling on his way out of the room.
“I feel a bit bad for the poor thing..” Yuu mumbled, the boy who she had forgotten she was standing next to also nodded at her statement, a bit of a sad look on his face.
“Well, that was quite the unexpected fracas. I hereby declare that orientation has concluded. Housewardens, please escort your students back to the dorms.” He looked around the room for a second. “...Hm? Come to think of it, I don't see Housewarden Draconia of House Diasomnia anywhere.” Yuu had moved back a bit as the commotion picked up again with the new topic.
“And that surprises you? Dude's a total recluse.” The smug human cat rolled his eyes, obliviously not caring about this Draconia.
“Wait a sec... Did anyone even invite him?” The boy she was previously standing next to looked at the others around him awaiting a response.
“If you're that worried about him missing out, maybe you should have told him yourself.” The pretty boy she had first met told the boy with the red eyes.
“Maybe, but I don't know him too well either...” he trailed off. Yuu moved back another step and suddenly bumped into someone.
“Oh! So sorry sir, I didn’t see you” she apologised looking at the person she hit, to say he looked different from what she’s used to is an understatement, he was a bit short and had choppy hair that reached a bit past his chin and.. pink? In his hair. ‘Is that pink streaks in his hair?? How unusual’ the boy looked at her and giggled.
“It’s alright young one” he observed her for a moment, furrowing his brows for a split second before returning to his normal face. “I just need to get passed you m’lady”
“Oh yea of course sorry!” She moved a bit to the side enough so he could get passed her towards the front.
“Thank you beastie” he smiled at her before walking towards the big group. ‘How peculiar of a man he is, but who is beastie..?’ she wondered.
She heard whispers erupt all throughout the room “Draconia... Like, Malleus Draconia? THAT Draconia?”
“So it's true? He really does go to school here?”
“Yikes.”
“Ah. Just as I'd expected.” It was the boy who she ran into before. I figured I'd come down and see for myself whether Malleus had made an appearance. But once again, he was evidently not informed that his presence was required at an official ceremony.” He sighed and shook his head.
“You have my sincerest apologies. I assure you, this oversight was in no way intended as a snub.” Azul apologised
“I mean, you must admit, he's not exactly the easiest person to strike up a conversation with.” Riddle said.
“No matter. All who were assigned to House Diasomnia, follow me. I just hope he doesn't sulk about this.” He waved his hand, mumbling the last part.
“Well, Yuu. This is a most unfortunate turn of events.” Crowley turned to her “I'm afraid that you will not be attending Night Raven Collage after all. Surely you realize that I cannot very well admit a student with no magical ability to my academy”
“That’s alright sir, I didn’t plan on attending your all boys magic school” she took down her hood that was masking her appearance, as well as making her very hot. She played with her hair a bit, neatening it up from its messiness. She heard the man let out a little gasp.
“Your a girl, my this is an even more reason to not admit you into the school I’m afraid, But worry not. The Dark Mirror will see you safely home.”
‘Home, with the others..’ she smiled at the thought, then went sour ‘home where Baron is..’
“Now, step into the gate, and visualize the place you whence you came.” She stepped up and imagined home, with her 11 other siblings and her parents, her father the king, a man of great power who was soft on his daughters yet stern when needed, and of her mother, oh her dear sick mother that she missed dearly, the woman who raised her, the woman that made her cookies within the royal kitchen, the woman who taught her to dance, the loving mother that held her when she cried, the mother that spent all her free time surrounded by her daughters, the woman who taught the youngest 3 daughters to sing carols on Christmas, who taught the twins to sneak off and participate in the royal guard training, the woman who spent her days personally teaching her eldest daughter Yuu, the mother that kissed them all to bed no matter how old they got she would tuck them in and sing a song or tell a story, the woman who started to get more ill it was like a curse that wouldn’t go away, the mother that mourned her children upon hearing of their curse, the woman she left behind.
Her sisters all 11 of them, all turned into swans because of her, they took her fate along with them and carried it for 3 years rarely seeing their parents, following Yuu around, living there lives on a lake, the sisters that she left behind and now they would befall the fate of her curse. The family she would return to.
“O Dark Mirror! Return this soul to where it belongs!” Crowley commanded, yet nothing happened
‘No..don’t tell me’
“Ahem* L-let us, er...try this again. O Dark Mirror! Return this soul—“ he was cut off
“There is no such place.” The dark mirror stated plainly.
‘No..No, no, no’ her mind started panicking, no such place?!.
“What?” Crowlwy asked
“here is no place in this world where this soul belongs.
None.”
“How can that be? My, but today is a veritable cavalcade of impossible phenomena!” Crowley stressed.
The mirror didn’t respond.
“This has never happended throughout my long tenure. I must confess that I am at something of a loss. Tell me: From what land do you hail?” He turned to her and asked.
“I’m from the Rhodanthe”
“Rhodanthe? I'm afraid I am not familiar with such a place.”
“But how, it’s one of the most powerful kingdoms across the land” she tried to block out the thought that drifted at the end of her mind.
“I am intimately acquainted with the origins of every student who has ever come here, and yet... This mysterious homeland of your eludes me. Let us go to the library and look it up, shall we?”
NOTE: that is chapter 3 YAY! I start holidays on Friday but I am going away for about a week so I’ll try to have something at least in the making, I’m glad other are liking this story so tell me what you imagine odette!Yuu to look like and the clothes she wears.
I also took the sisters thing from barbie and the 12 dancing princesses, it’ll provide for good angst in the future and it also says that Odette has other swans with her so I decided to go with that and make them her sisters. Hope you all like this chapter it takes a while to make these but I enjoy it, we’re getting closer and closer to day time in wonderland so I’m exited to write the swan. Also if anyone wants to drop a name for the sisters mother or father I’ll try and use it so I can build up their characters, it just needs to have a medieval touch yk not TO modern and if it comes with a meaning I would love to know that to.
IMPORTANT!! I think I might make other posts like incorrect quotes and stuff based on odette!Yuu and stuff like scenarios or answering questions so I’ll try to see how an ask box or whatever it’s called works and use it, I might even posts other Yuusonas I’ve got but I’ll mainly try to focus on odette Yuu.

OH MY GODDDDDD I HATE THE BLIZZARD TITAN SM
Someones a little upset about their new living arrangements
TWST OC facts
Some fun facts about "T", my Yuu-adjacent character who fills the same ecological niche, just... always exists alongside Yuu rather than solo
He arrived in Twisted Wonderland at around the same time Yuu did, though nobody saw him pop out of a coffin. Due to his natural sneakiness, most just assume he slipped out during the chaos and nobody noticed
He has nicknames for everyone, pretty much never refers to them by their actual names. These nicknames range from ridiculous to kind of cool, but mostly ridiculous
Notable ones include: Cater getting called "Camera," Lilia being "Batsy," Floyd being "Zappy," Jade being "Kraken," and Azul getting nicknamed "Squid"
It's unclear if he's calling Azul a squid on purpose or if T genuinely doesn't know he's actually an octopus and nobody has bothered to tell him
One of the actual reasons he calls every by nicknames is because he.... genuinely can't remember people's names very well. If someone says another person's name to him, he can generally piece it together, but actually remembering someone's name? Rare. The nicknames are how he keeps track of people
He wears sunglasses everywhere, regardless of the situation. It could be dead of night in a rainstorm and he'd still have them
Actually found out about Malleus' identity before Yuu did. Twice, in fact! However, he managed to forget both instances and only actually got a proper reveal around book 5
He has a sort of unsettling presence, almost like an uncanny valley effect. If he's happy and relaxed, it's subdued. If he's upset, well...
He's also very protective of his friends, and will dedicate significant amounts of time to bothering the people who pull anything. Despite his playful demeanor, it can flip like a switch in just a moment if someone he cares about is threatened
T gets along very well with most of Diasomnia, with one notable exception: Sebek. Sebek strongly dislikes him, and the two are often seen bickering. T thinks Sebek is hilarious, and will often make a pointed effort to annoy him
The primary reason that nobody's really stepped in between them is that nothing T says or does is particularly mean-spirited, and no real lines have been crossed yet by either of them
Sebek's name is one of the few T actually remembers, mostly because of the amount of times Sebek has repeated it. T still insists on calling him "Sparky"
An incomplete list of things that one "T" has done during his time attending Night Raven College
Accidentally drew the attention of one Rook Hunt, who has decided that because he is mysterious and hard to keep track of, he’s the perfect target to hunt
Accidentally angered Riddle by breaking the same rule 12 times in 14 days. Apologized every time, claims he forgot
Befriended Jade Leech, much to the horror of Azul
Set Crowley’s office on fire. Claims innocence
Gotten into a contest with Lilia to see who can jumpscare the other first. Neither party has been successful
Got both himself and Lilia a lifetime ban from the NRC kitchens
Photobombed Cater by trying to say hi, resulting in blurry ass backgrounds (7 times)
Pickpocketed Ruggie and then just returned the stuff out of sheer boredom (11 times. Ruggie is out for blood)
Gone through and pickpocketed half the student body when he got bored enough and then ran a big table to return everyone’s stuff, because he can’t remember who he stole it from
Started a collection of shoelaces stolen from everyone who insults his friends in his presence
Broken onto the RSA campus for no particular reason, mostly just hangs out with Chenya while there (14 times)
Somehow convinced Yuu that he should be Ramshackle Dorm's Vice Prefect
Taught Grim to say fuck
TWST OC/Sort-of-Yuu-adjacent relationship chart! He moreso exists alongside Yuu than actually being Yuu, but they fill roughly the same ecological niche so I lump him in that category.
"T" is a weird little guy and I love him very much. He is so full of Secrets but also fun and whimsy.
His full profile is here, if anyone is curious enough about him to take a look. The picrew I used for him is this one!
Ramshackle's Vice Prefect (TWST OC/Sort-of-Yuu)
"T"
"If my soul belongs nowhere, then I can be everywhere! That's what they call being a 'jack of all trades,' right?"
T, a mischief-maker who appeared in Twisted Wonderland around the same time as Yuu. Despite appearing under the same circumstances, the Dark Mirror never even acknowledged him. He's known for two things: Wearing sunglasses at all times, regardless of time of day, weather, or location, and calling everyone by nicknames.
Grade: Freshman
Birthday: ????
Age: 19
Height: Short
Dominant Hand: Ambidextrous
Homeland: Otherworld
Club: None; tends to bounce between activities
Best Subject: Potionology
Hobbies: Birdwatching
Pet Peeves: Nothing
Favorite Food: Chocolate ice cream
Least Favorite Food: Sand
Talent: Being unsettling
Signature Spell: "Road to Somewhere"
This isn't a real signature spell; rather, it's just an inside joke. T has an uncanny ability to appear any place he pleases, and disappear the moment people's eyes are averted. While most people just assume he is naturally sneaky, Ace was the first one to joke that this could secretly be his signature spell. T himself was the one to nickname it.
Aaaaand that's T, my sort-of-Yuu who is technically my own OC outside of TWST, but he decided he wanted in on the action and now we're.... here. I'll probably drop a relationship chart for him soon
Finally finished my the design for my Yuu sona during the "Lost in the Book with Stitch" event (started this drawing back in June lol).
ANYWAYS gonna make a proper character sheet one of these days (if I don't forget) and might change some things in his appearance and might give him a name but for now he's just named "Yuu" ☺️
Let's go made my new Halloween icon inspired by the new twisted wonderland even (this is my art sona)
Twisted wonderland AU Children of Laughter: Waking up
Previous part
Dark, empty, quiet, and vast. This is what welcomes Sian as she wakes up from her slumber. It takes a moment to realize the vast dark space isn't as vast or unlimited as it seems upon first glance.
Sian takes a deep breathe in and out.
'First things first what is the last thing that happened before i fell unconscious?' Sian pondered.
She and Yuzu were on a grocery run and were returning back to the cabin. Yuzu was getting low on many ingredients and wanted to make some desserts for Sian to cheer the Fae girl up during her visit.
However they encountered a carriage while they were crossing the dirt road.
Sian pinches the bridge of her nose and then quickly patted herself down looking and checking herself for injuries.
Her muscles ached in a few places and her head was reeling from a headache. So it appears she got a little sore from a fall. Not surprising that her head hurts since she can't recall what exactly happened when they collided with the horses drawn carriage.
Perhaps a horse kicked her, no that probably wasn't it horse kicks were powerful. A kick to the head would probably be more harmful than the state of her head currently suggests.
Perhaps she was pulled or startled back at the site of the horse approaching fast at her. Then her head collided with the ground fast and hard as she fell losing her footing amongst the chaos.
'Yeah that's probably it' Sian murmur to herself.
Sian closed her eyes again deep breathes as she trys to calm herself down.
Her eyes snapped open wide as her breathing gets rapid and her heart beats wildly.
'YUZU! where is she?! She was with me.'
Sian goes back to trying to calm herself down with breathing exercises.
She needed to figure out where she was fast but needed to calm herself down first. Panicking would make her more rash and prone to mistakes. She can't afford to make mistakes not when Yuzu's health and safety are on the line.
"Not again I won't go through that again I refuse" Sian muttered to herself quietly.
Breathe in, Breathe out
Breathe in, Breath out.
'Get it together one step at a time'
Okay first things first these stuffy clothes. Sian patted herself down remembering her clothes felt slightly different and odd.
She was still wearing the same vest with slightly oversized shirt underneath it. A belt slatted at her waist with another cloth wrapping around her waist like the bottom half of a dress. However unlike a typical ball gown this one was very light, flowy,and most importantly shorter as it ended right above her knees. But most importantly her 'skirt' was handmade and had pockets.
What Sian isn't wearing is her typical long cloak instead she's wearing some stuffy robes on top of her regular clothes for visiting Yuzu.
Sian preferred wearing light, flowy, clothes that were easy to move around in instead of heavy elegant gowns she was forced in sometimes when visiting one of her other friends.
Anyways back to the robes that Sian doesn't remember wearing at all today.
She quickly took the hood down and freed her arms from those long sleaves. She then wrapped those sleaves around her waist on top of the belt she wore and even tucked in the end of the sleeves into her belt.
She yawns and stretches her arms and wings.
Those darn stuffy robes! Her pixie wings felt so suffocate and restricted under them.
Sian closed her eyes and trys to feel the air.
How cold was the air around her?
How big or small was the space she occupied in comparison to herself?
Was there even a breeze? Was she indoor or outdoor?
She focused on how the air felt on her skin, how it swayed alongside the magic she sensed all around her in whatever space she currently occupied. Using her natural connection with wind magic to sense the shape and size of wherever she seems to be at currently.
She takes a deep breathe and opens her eyes. She's in a container of some sort, again. However this one was larger and more of a weird long rectangular shape the top of it was strange but she doesn't focus on it for long. The container Sian was in is upright and standing wherever it is currently located, not lying down on it's back nor lying on its side.
The material of the container felt hard wood or metal perhaps, certainly not made of glass nor fabric.
'Where in the world was she?'
She felt the area around her with wind magic some more, testing the area to see where the lid or exit may be. The front, the lid was on the side right in front of her.
She takes a deep breathe and focused her mind on pushing the air strongly against the lid with her wind magic. The wind made a whoosh noise as the lid came right off and floated a few feet in from of her. It worked. It appears there wasn't anything outside the container to keep the lid on tight however she felt some strong magical resistance to pushing the lid off. There was a magical locking mechanism on the lid though she managed to click in open with her wind magic just fine.
Now for the lid floating in front of her a few feet awat. With her magic Sian gently placed the lid onto the ground as she surveyed her new surroundings.
The room was vast with lots of empty space. However it wasn't empty there was lots of floating coffins around the room. Large window with elegant designs on them littered the walls accompanied by large curtains pushed to the side of the windows.
In the center of the room was a floating elegant mirror on top of a small fountain. However the fountain didn't release water but a green liquid substance Sian could not recognize nor identify.
The room felt a bit intimidating to Sian as she currently was palm/pixie sized, unable to be 'human sized' at the moment.
Sian didn't mind her current size, she much preferred to be small as it's her true size and feels more at ease and in control during these moments.
Sian is curious tho despite her current small size she was placed in a human sized coffin. Maybe that could pertain clues to who her kidnappers were? Or perhaps the coffin being the wrong sized hinted that her kidnapping wasn't planned since they stored her in such a large space for her small form.
Either way she needs to figure out where she is. Who is around here? Are there friends, foes or both around? Is Yuzu also here as well? If Yuzu is in another coffin it would be risky to just go checking them considering there is a good chance there will be others sleeping inside the other coffins. Sian is unable to tell who is occupying any of the other coffins, if at all.
Sian decides against checking coffins for Yuzu at the moment for she deemed it too risky. She decides to instead, venture out this room to gather information on where they are and who placed them in those coffins.
Sian hesitates tho. Fearing for Yuzu's safety. 'Just a quick look around and then I'll head straight back and hide in this room or somewhere just outside this room' Sian reasoned with herself.
And so Sian flys off out of the mirror chamber quietly promising to return back soon as Yuzu is still slumbering away in another coffin.

Twisted wonderland AU, fanfiction
Prologue: Before NRC orientation
The loud noises of crunching leaves could be heard as Yuzu walked through the forest on this late and cold afternoon. The autumn leaves falling all around her alongside the cold breeze of the wind.
She glanced down at the heavy paper bag full of groceries she was holding onto with both hands.
Her short blonde hair blowing in the wind along with the few silver strands of hair on a small portion of her bangs, on her right side.
She also had right behind that silver bangs a portion of silver hair behind that. It was like a silver strip of hair both on her bangs and backside of her head.
Yuzu looked back up from the bag of groceries. As she saw the girl not much older than her just further ahead. One whom she saw as a older sister figure in her life.
Yuzu - "Sian, wait up!"
As Yuzu said this the taller girl ahead of her had stopped walking in response. The taller girl's long wavy dark brown hair brushed against her backside.
More notably against the long black cloak she wore that reached her ankles. The taller girl turned to face Yuzu as a long braided strand whipped around that land on top of Sian's shoulder.
The taller girl huffed and looked straight into Yuu's eyes. Sian's dark purple eyes staring right into Yuzu's acorn brown eyes.
Sian - "sorry dear"
Sian stands still waiting as she lets the shorter girl Yuzu catch up to her, staying just 3 steps behind Sian.
"thank you big sister" Yuzu replied
Sian was also holding a paper bag full of groceries as well in her arms. The two girls then proceeded to walk once more.
"I'm surprised you were that far behind me"
Yuzu just chucked a bit embarrassed in response. Sian raised a eyebrow noticing the bashful expression on Yuzu's face.
"Do I dare ask what slowed you down this time?" Sian questioned.
Yuzu immediately shakes her head violently. She rather not tell Sian and get another lecture on being easily distracted by her surroundings once more. Though she is aware Sian is just concerned for her.
The two girls stopped walking once more. They stood in front of a dirt road looking towards another forest path up ahead.
Sian looks both ways across the dirt road before ultimately crossing it with Yuzu following closely behind her still.
In the middle of crossing the road they both suddenly hear the sounds of horses alongside the clanking metal of a carriage.
Sian turns to Yuzu, her eyes wide as Yuzu turns towards the sound of the carriage coming straight towards them on their right.
Unfortunately, the carriage didn't show any signs of slowing down and before the two could move out of the way they got knocked out by the horses pulling the carriage.
Unknowingly to the two girls the carriage had whisk them away to another world.
Their grocery bags destroyed its contents now littering the dirt road with no other signs of what had just occurred by the magical carriage.

Random Drawing Urge (6)
Warning: mild disturbing drawing, Blood and ugly feet lmao
Who needs a disco ball if you got eyes like this
Azul inked and he cant decide if hes scared or into that :)
Made another but red
I had a thought and suddenly, I found myself drawing my Yuusona. I wanted to make Yuu so unsettling to people they couldn't tell if Yuu is human or not so I had my Yuu's resembled one of my most favourite mangas: Phantom Tales Of The Night. You guys should check it out cuz its underrated.
I drew them with pencils and a terrible camera quality, sorry if its messy and blurry (and dont pay any attention to any inaccuracies in clothes or etc. )
(WARNING: SLIGHTLY DISTURBING SIGHT INVOLVING TEETH)
'Owner' from Phantom tales of the night:
I even made a short comic to show what kind my Yuu is.
If you cant tell whats going on, Eels have another jaw inside so Yuu wanted to show that 'they' have one too, except, its just rows and rows of teeths and sharp canines inside their mouth like a leech or some sort.
I’ve been deep into art block for ages, but this fic of Jamil dancing with Yuu brought me out of it.
I am my own target audience, but I thought some of y’all would appreciate my funky lil Jamil design.
(My Yuu-sona is the one on the left)
*Casualy drops this*
Its been in my drafts for so long... But I think i need to show her some love!!
YOU GUYSS!! MEET RYUUYA!!! WHOHOOO
(Im too lazy to make her pose for the character info thingy, so take this one instead :•3)
I posted this in the middle of the night and im so tired, might edit this later
SebeYuu/YuuSebe/ Shattered Mirror (incase of these two)
Idk, but it looked fun pairing up my Yuusona to a character. Ok so Sebek and Yuu will actually be an interesting dynamic, or its just me.
I actually made them a Ship Name, which is called 'Shattered Mirror' because Mirror for "Casimir" and Shattered for Sebek because he is loud and mirrors will shatter with it. Silly Explanation for it.
OK BONUS
with lipstick stain
Its adorbs

Backstory:
Backstory sections: Before NRC, Getting sent to NRC, and then how July feels about the twst universe.
(After the backstory stuff, I'll talk about July's Design)
Before NRC: July was originally supposed to be born in late June, and because of this her mom was going to name her June. But as you can see by her birthday, she was born in July instead. Her mom was pretty mad about this, and when July was finally born, her mom just named her July because she didn't want to think of another name.
July's mom especially didn't like July after she was born because July was born with heterochromia, and so her mom had to go to a few different doctors to make sure nothing was wrong with July's eyes. Everything was fine though, and the heterochromia wasn't dangerous at all.
Through July's childhood she wasn't really a social kid, and would avoid social interaction whenever she could. She liked playing with dolls, and stuffed animals by herself rather than with people. This anti social behavior would follow her into high school, and she would often times ditch school to watch, and film wild life. Which overtime she developed a love for.
However due to July's constant skipping when she first started high school, her mom decided to "homeschool" her, which was basically just letting July outside of the house all day, and keeping her out until it was sundown. This was because July's mom didn't feel like July was smart enough for college, and July's mom didn't really care about her. The only reason July's mom homeschooled July, instead of just letting her skip school, is because July's mom didn't want to deal with CPS.
July doesn't have any siblings. She has a mom who stays home, and a dad who works all the time. The most July's mom does for her is cook dinner, and do her laundry. Pretty much everything else July has to do herself, like dying her hair. July let's her hair grow for a few months, and then dyes the places where her natural hair color is showing. This meant a lot of the time July would have faded color on her ends, and bright color where her hair had grown out.
Getting sent to NRC: July walked down a trail that was near her house, trees lined the trail, and there was wildlife everywhere. July observed them, and took pictures as she walked along the trail. Eventually, the trail ended, and there was a park. July stayed there for a while. Cars passed by on the road near the park while July was swinging on a swing set, and sliding down the playground slides that were way too small for her. When the sun started setting, she realized she should hurry home. But that's when she saw a crow, the way the setting sun hit its feathers was perfect, it revealed the undertones of purple and a light blue of the crow's feathers. When July pulled out her camera to take a picture, the crow fluttered it's wings, and the picture wasn't flattering.
The crow then started hoping away, but July was determined to get a picture of this crow because once the crow stopped, it was at a perfect angle again. July got a little closer, but the same thing kept happening. It wasn't until July was in the middle of the road, that she was able to take a picture of the crow. She was so happy with how the picture turned out, she didn't even realize she was standing in the middle of the road, or the horse-drawn carriage running towards her.
How July feels about the twst universe: Sometimes she wishes she could just go home. At home she doesn't have to deal with overblots, talking to new people, and getting good grades in school. But sometimes she likes how magical everything is, how things like beastmen, fae, and humans can exist in the same universe, and even the fact that humans can communicate with animals in this world. She's conflicted on whether she wants to go back home or not, and it really bums her out when it's brought up, especially after the prologue when she becomes kind of friends with Ace, Deuce, and Grim.
(Sorry for my bad story telling skills, I'm not very good at writing in the third person (⸝⸝๑﹏๑⸝⸝) )
Design:
You might be wondering if I based July off of a Disney character, and honestly, no, I didn't have one in mind. I kind of just based the personality, and interests on the mc in the game. In twst Yuu doesn't talk much, and their dialog options really don't affect the story much, so I just decided "Maybe Yuu doesn't like to talk to others." And then the whole pictures thing is because the mc in twst has a camera, and does take pictures with it.
As for the poetry part, I just did that because it was an artsy thing, and I felt like it fit in there. Also with history of magic being the best subject, instead of animal languages is because I just feel like my Yuu would have a hard time picking up on the animal languages. This because of her unwillingness to talk in many situations. Also my Yuu is in the film studies club because she's a good with cameras, and I don't think she has to be in the same club as Grim ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
With her physical design, I made her have fire hair. I felt like it was pretty cool. I also thought it would be funny if people kept asking her if she was related to the Shrouds at all, or just assumed it, only to later find out there's literally no connection. Also how ironic would it be if Yuu had a magic feature to them, but they're literally just a non magic human?
Though, I will say her design is a little based on Crona from Soul Eater:
Crona is the reason she has heterochromia, well the reason I designed her that way. While Crona doesn't have heterochromia, their eye color switches from black to blue sometimes, so when I was making my Yuu I was like "🎵 You get the best of both worlds🎵" But instead of a black eye I gave her a brown eye.
Also their skin tone came out...not the way I wanted it, but I'll keep it if enough people like how it is right now. I used a more grey skin color pallette, and not my usual skin color pallette. So in the future I will probably not use that pallette again, unless it's for the Halloween Skully event, or something like that.
Oh also, if you noticed on the top of July's head there's a little face:
Originally, I put this in my sketch because I was trying to figure out how flame hair worked, and if there would be particles in there. Then I realized I was thinking of a lava lamp, but I liked the little face, so I'm keeping it.
And before I stop my yapping, I wanted to say in Japanese July is just "The seventh month" and so I made July's birthday the 7th because I decided she would be born on the 7th month. Also I chose July as her name because I didn't know what gender she was going to be at first, and it was gender natural. July is only a girl because I put genders on a wheel, and it chose girl.
Thank you for listening to me talk about my Yuusona, please feel free to ask any questions (˶ˆᗜˆ˵)
For people who have a Yuusona, I'm curious.
