I keep up with cookie run via Royal Mike, and thatās where I got these screenshots.
First, ANANAS DRAGON IS SO COOL!!! I love them and all the dragons! They are as prideful as ever. And Iām happy to see that Mango still has a good relationship with Ananas and vice versa. Thank you crk! Next
Ananas saw Pitayaās corruption. While initially shocked, they recognized Pitaya immediately and wondered what happened. Their voice was like that of disbelief and maybe pity. But Ananas calling Pitaya not only Red Dragon (not Greenish Red) but also a friend. The dragons had tense relationships on their charts (except Longan). They were pretty tense with each other when they were getting back together. But also, at the end of the day, theyāre all still dragonkin, fellow Fruit Dragons.
But thatās not all.
WEāVE GOT LOTUS DRAGON MENTION!!! Back at the end of the dragon storyline in crob, itās revealed that the Flower Dragons were wiped out in a war with the Fruit Dragons. Lotus is basically the only Flower Dragon left. By then, Snapdragon was already in crk, so lots of us figured Snapdragon was a Flower Dragon too. Thank you Ananas for confirming our suspicions. And also
LONGAN DRAGON MENTION LETāS GOOOOO!!! To think one of Longanās orbs was dormant near the island. Reminds me of when Longan took control of the world and watched Ananas like a hawk. But Ananas was surprised by its presence. I wonder how Longan will appear later on. After all, they are the all powerful Ivory Dragon that rearranged the world. Not even with all 4 other dragons fighting together could they barely fight Longan, who eventually changed into their true powered form. Not to mention, Longan is kinda against all cookie kind. But regardless, Iām still happy we got a Longan mention.
People are so pissed about Malleus and Lilia not being pissed about the princess glow. We all thought it was a Draconia heirloom and therefore Malleusās birthright. But we honestly knew nothing about it before the new chapter. All we know is that it was in Maleanorās possession and taken when she was killed. Then we learn it was given to Ambroseās family by Silverās mom and later used as a trophy decoration. But now we know the truth. She took it from the morning fae when she defeated them in battle. So when she was defeated, the victory took it from her.
While the two fae could be mad, we know they also have some honor. It was never originally Maleanorās, so Malleus has no argument about birthrights. Lilia was probably there when Maleanor won and took the princess glow for herself considering those two practically grew up together. Both Lilia and Malleus acknowledge that the magic stone has been a trophy of victory, so itās only right to believe that the victor earns the right to possess the princess glow as has been in the past.
Went to pull on the new banners and won my gachas wooo! At the cost of going to pity on everything. I also wanted to get E1 Sunday because I love him and heās my best support.
I fell for a scam and my Discord account is now compromised. If anyone gets a message from me, BLOCK IT AND DO NOT INTERACT. This is a pic of my friendās dms of then attempting to scam them. Upon being called out, the messages were deleted and they were blocked.

I did a TWST Fave Character Sorter. Results are surprising and not at the same time.
I expected Riddle, Vil, and Azul to be top 3. But Allay seeing both queens tied for 1st is interesting yet so true.
How is it that King Pig is higher than Ambrose 63rd? I thought theyād be tied. I hate both with a burning passion. But I guess I have current bias. Ambrose 63rd is honestly pissing me off. I want Nrc to beat his school into the ground. And even if they donāt win (which they should I mean come on), at least destroy the trophy and take back WHAT IS RIGHTFULLY MALLEUSāS FAMILY HEIRLOOM! AINāT NO WAY YOU DONāT KNOW WHAT IS BEING USED AS A BASED FOR THAT GAUDY TROPHY!
Iām calm. I swear. Team NRC!
Hereās the sorter: https://twstwonderland-sorter.tumblr.com
I talked about this in a server I'm in, and I want to share my thoughts on the new characters and their parallels to our boys. So in this post, I'll be discussing my takes on the parallels between Azul and Rielle, and Jamil and Minajael.
First, our ocean duo. This took a bit longer for me to see, but then it just came to me. Both of them have a need for approval, and a drive to prove themselves to others. For Azul, we know that he's wanted to get back at his bullies by becoming successful and overpowering them with his intellect and abilities. He wanted to prove to others and himself that he wasn't some weak little octopus. That he was strong. He wanted to make them regret messing with him. With Rielle, like Ariel, wants to prove that he's not a child. He's the 7th prince of the Coral Sea, and he should be a second year like Azul since they were in the same classes in Elementary and Middle School.
Rielle is very bright eyed and curious about everything, and probably rather impulsive. It's probably because of these behaviors that he's seen as childish because he's not only young, but he does what he wants, often unintentionally causing problems for others. Upon getting his invitation to RSA, Rielle immediately ran away, presumably to get a pair of legs. Dialogue also hints that he didn't even go to Land School like the Fish Mafia did, so he just learned to do it on his own. To me, in Rielle's mind, this is him showcasing independence. By participating in the inter-school championship, Rielle is trying to show his family and others that he is capable of doing things on his own and succeeding. That he's not a child and can be on his own.
But the difference to me is that Azul has a sense of responsibility, and knew what he wanted and how to achieve it. He knew he wanted to get smarter and stronger, so he used his octo abilities to the max and study from grimoires and write dozens of notes at a time. He wants to get fit, so he dieted and worked out. He wanted to outsmart his enemies, so he learned to alter his personality and studied law and contracts. Rielle, I might sound harsh with since we JUST met him and Minajael. But Rielle is still rather naive. He knows he wants to show he's not a child, but does he know how he wants to be seen as grown up? He acknowledges that Azul looks more refined from when they were under the sea, but I think that's just from surface appearances. Because at a glance, Azul DOES look more elegant and refined. Far from the crybaby octopus he used to be. Rielle might have run away to show that he can be independent, which seems to equate to "grown up," (which I won't deny is an aspect of being mature), but by running away, he's still showcasing his childish behavior. Azul calls it "showing initiative" to appease Rielle, but we all agree that it was probably a pain for the royal family. It is yet another instance of the youngest prince causing trouble on a whim to follow his own desires. Idk. I could be reading too much into this and maybe projecting my own thoughts.
Now, Jamil and Minajael really spoke to me. These two have a very obvious parallel. The desire for freedom. Jamil wants freedom from servitude, and Minajael wants freedom from royal life and to make his own choices. Just like Princess Jasmine, Minajael is tired of the traditional ways of the country and can't stand being told how to do the most minuscule of things. Despite being rather prodigious and successful in everything, he wants to be free to do what he wants. Jamil calls this an "arrogant problem," and he's right. I understand that royalty and nobility have their own rules to follow and are limited in their power, but Minajael is actually in a position to make changes if he wanted them. He just has to do what he does best and succeed so HE can make those changes himself. He's the literal PRINCE.
But unlike Minajael, Jamil can't do anything or he risks his life and his family's. He publicly acknowledges and addresses Minajael as a prince because he's a citizen of the Land of Hot Sands (Scalding Sands) and is presumably obligated to greet the ROYALTY. Jamil himself said that he can't address Minajael so casually unless he wants to get arrested (though he does cave). Had Jamil's little stunt have actually gotten back to Kalim's family back in Book 4, his entire family would have been destroyed. It's only from the fact that the "livestream" wasn't real and that Kalim was kind that Jamil and his family are fine. But Jamil can't just make change as he wishes like Minajael can because he is just a servant of a generational servant family. Minajael even acknowledges this, saying Jamil was just someone from a family who serves a relative (This is one of the reasons why Jamil hates rich people and I'm inclined to join him).
Anyway, those were just my thoughts. I look forward to seeing more interactions. I honestly want Jamil to tear into Minajael about his "freedom problem." Like, my guy, YOU'RE A PRINCE! YOU CAN CHANGE THINGS WHEN YOU SUCCEED THE THRONE! GAIN INFLUENCE WITH YOUR PEOPLE AND POLITICAL FIGURES TO MAKE SUBTLE CHANGES RIGHT NOW! But then again, I might have a very simplified and basic understanding of generic royal court. Middle Eastern and Southeast Asian court are very different, so that might not even be possible for him. I still want Jamil to tear into him though because don't complain about wanting freedom and not being able to do anything about it when Jamil is in the same boat but ACTUALLY can't do anything about it lest he and his family be persecuted.
Ā Ā Ā āMillions of years ago, during the time of the dinosaurs, dragon of many hues roamed the land and ruled the skies. As the most powerful beings of the time, nothing could stand up to them. As ferocious as they were, the Orange Dragon was one of the more gentle dragons. Though gentle in nature, the Orange Dragon had the ability to control Health and Disease, none tried to anger it in fear of being plagued by their power. But just before the end of the Dragon Age, the Orange Dragon left behind its egg hidden beneath the surface. Overtime, the life in the egg froze in development from lack of proper warmth. Thousands of years later, temperatures were on the rise, and that heat trapped in the soil. The dragon egg began to warm and develop again. Centuries later, an outbreak was plaguing a village of cookies. Suddenly, a strange looking cookie appears and erases the outbreak with a wave of their sleeves. From then on, Apricot Dragon Cookie served as the villageās divine healer. As long as the Healing Dragon remains, the village is safe from harm.ā
Still an NRC girlie. But, they seem interesting. Minajael especially. But letās talk about Rielle first. At the moment, he pretty bright eyed, curious, and friendly. He actually recognized Azul before remembering him fully after being told they went to school together. Heās got some daddy issues and wants to prove himself as a capable young adult and not as the child heās seen as. Apparently, he ran away THE MOMENT he got his rsa invitation and didnāt go through traditional means to become human, which is going to a Land school to learn how to walk and stuff (Eternity Float Event, via Jade). Makes you wonder how he got here.
Now, Minajael is interesting. Heās a prince. A very gifted and prodigious one. He graduated (presumably junior high/middle school) at 14, he always gets first place, incredibly intelligent. Heād be perfect if not for his habit of running away and stirring up the media. When Jamil addresses him as āPrince,ā Minajael bluntly tells him to drop it since he hates all that etiquette and title stuff. He hates how he canāt do anything for himself, and how he canāt even marry who he wants. He wants to be free to make his own choices. So, turns how he and Kalim are distant cousins through their grandparents. Someone in the family ran off to marry a merchant since doing so was against the rules (this honestly explains a lot). He calls the laws of the land āoutdated.ā
Our boysā reaction to them were interesting. Azul was polite as he would with anyone. He has a brief slip of the tongue moment, nearly calling Rielle an annoyance before complimenting his initiative for his constant trouble making. But Jamil and Minajael caught my attention. Turns out Minajael is also just being formal in his conversation with Jamil. When Rielle asked if Jamil was a friend, he simply said he was āThe son of a servant family of a relative,ā also dropping his more friendlier persona. Jamil isnāt too taken with Minajael either. He mocks Minajaelās desires after the conversation after having went along and agreeing with him. He called it an arrogant problem since Minajael is actually in a position to CHOOSE, unlike Jamil. Which, clock his ass, Jamil. Get him.
The update essentially ends with this introduction to the new rsa boys. I wonder how our boys will win the first game. I hope Azul, Jamil, and the others make use of their skills and win. By any means. I, at least want Jamil to go off on Minajael whether in front or or behind camera.
I will forever only know Rielle as the subject of honor from the photograph in chapter 3, sorry my guy. Minajael looks pretty cool. I if he has any ties with Kalim and Jamil. And if he does, does he know what Jamil did?
I donāt know their personalities yet, but when I do, Iāll probably comment.
