Headcanons:

Growing up in the Underworld was not to Daisy’s taste. It wasn’t just her parents who encouraged something different for her, but she had always wanted something better for herself, too. The people down there were so one-sided, closed minded to the possibility of disguised chaos. Everyone just liked the idea of torturing humans outright, but Daisy knew there was a better way. They could be so much more effective if they came off friendly first, attacking from the inside. No one ever believed in her or her ideas until she met one Charlie Cheshire.

Though they were true opposites when they met, the more time she spent with Charlie, the more Daisy feel like they were becoming a team. He as the best friend she had in the Underworld, and even her best friend in life once they came to the surface together. Somehow, they brought out the worst in each other, and if she thought she could be chaotic alone, it doubled with Charlie. Her methods of seducing men and luring them in worked in Animania, and Charlie didn’t like it. It wasn’t her fault that it worked; if anyone, he had humans and other fickle creatures to blame for being so brainless.

The breakup with Charlie was ridiculous. He just didn’t see the potential they had together as a team, and Daisy really tried to get him to open up his eyes and look to the future. She knew that his future was going nowhere without her, but she grew impatient, fast. There were many men up in Animania who would fall head over heels for her if she had it her way, and if Charlie didn’t want to be one of them, so be it. She packed all her things and moved out, leaving fire in her wake.

Becoming a dancer at Wonderland was the best thing to ever happen to Daisy. She found people who got her beyond Charlie for the first time in her life. Having sisters from the Underworld up in this one made her feel more at home than she ever had felt before. Wonderland is kind of crazy, and she doesn’t really trust Beth entirely, but Daisy has a good life there, and she doesn’t want to ruin it. Instead, she keeps working on both her dancing and her ability to ruin men, making a good living off both of them.

Working at the flower shop is Daisy’s escape. It’s the one thing that she can do for herself without feeling like she’s ruining something. She’s actually really good at putting together arrangements and selling them, and she knows Paislee is someone she should keep in her corner. Daisy doesn’t know why, but she seems so familiar, and feels like home. She wants to ask the woman why she seems so familiar to her, but she doesn’t want to lose her job at the flower shop, either.

Ruining Charlie’s life is now her goal. Daisy’s read the gossip news and all that bullshit about who he’s been hanging around and has taken note of all of it. She wouldn’t call herself a stalker, but she keeps tabs on him, from afar. He’s just beginning to unravel, she can sense it, and she knows her time is coming to swoop in and go for the kill. He doesn’t know it, but the exact tactics Daisy once warned him about—getting closer to her prey and letting them feel comfortable—are going to be his downfall. It’s sad, really. If only he’d paid more attention in the first place, Charlie would see what’s coming his way.

Daisy’s been enjoying seeing the new places Animania has opened up to, especially New Salem. There’s something about the town that she can feel in her bones is different about it than anywhere else. The people there aren’t people, that much she can tell, and she wants to get to know them all.

He only came here for one reason and that was to visit Daisy. She being a force to be reckoned with that he had taken notice of from the first moment they met. The way she drew people in he couldn’t help but find a fascination with her. Barkis was no stranger to darkness and he saw it in her, perhaps as she also saw in him. As far as he saw it, he did what had to in order to survive. That’s all everyone was trying to do themselves really. People did what they must, he was doing the same. A mean to an end and now he’d found it: Lindsay. She was going to fit into his plan nicely if all went according to plan. That didn’t mean he couldn’t give his favorite dancer a visit, holding up his whiskey glass in greeting when he saw her across the room. 

Daisy had missed one of her favorite customers, who she knew had a dark side to him from the moment she failed to see the light. He and Duncan had an extra layer of mystery to them that she wasn’t even sure she wanted to uncover what was underneath. They both were worthy of her time and a bit of fun, though, and she intended to do just that. Daisy caught his eye and the raise of his glass, and she suppressed an automatic smirk as she approached him. “What’s that you’re drinking?” she asked, plucking the drink out of his hand for her own sip before he could even answer. “We need to get you on something more fun than whiskey,” Daisy demanded with a shake of her head as she swallowed it down. “Especially now that I’m here.”

Sarah hummed as Daisy spoke. Her mind was on her, but it was also on Billy. Most of her thoughts were at him these days. He had consumed her and spat her back out and she was just into him more for it. She understood the tricky subject of exes and even though she was hardly in a position to talk, she wanted to be there for Daisy. So if that meant locking her ex up, she would do it. “Oh it’s no fun when they give it up to you so easily,” Sarah said, shaking her head. “You need to give your ex something new to take away. Something that will help him miss you more after they lose it.” She nodded her head. “I ruin men all the time. Winnie has often told me it was a hobby of mine and my only real skill.”

Sarah was entirely right, which was exactly why Daisy enjoyed her company and respected her opinions so much. There was so much she could learn from her about how exactly she should go about destroying Charlie. “I know,” she whined, rolling her eyes at just the thought of giving Charlie what he wanted. “Well, she’s wrong, because you have a lot more skills than that, but the whole ruining men specialty would come in handy right about now. I don’t know how to get him to admit defeat, it’s so annoying.” Daisy knew she was close to getting him to fold, but he would never admit it to her face. It would have to be seen, but she knew her ex well enough to be satisfied with just that, if she saw it herself.

Hans knew if anyone would be relieved to hear the news of his most recent ‘heartbreak’ it would be Daisy. Just the look in her devious eyes was confirmation enough to know that she was more than pleased to hear the news. Hans wasn’t going to hide the smirk on his face or the look of lustful desire in his eyes. He stepped closer to her, wrapping an arm around her waist to pull her closer. “Her heart belonged to another, she was in love with someone else. It was…quite a bit of a blow to be honest. It’s fine though. I’ll be okay. Besides, I have you to distract me.” He smirked at her and leaned his lips close to her ear. “Like you said, I’m free as a bird and can have whatever I want. I know you want the same. I can tell by the look in your eyes.” He pressed a kiss to her neck, just under where he had whispered into her ear. “What do you say? Just me and you. No repercussions or bullshit. Just us.”

Daisy almost laughed, it was so silly. She hoped that the redhead who Hans had gotten engaged to had fucked up that badly, just to save himself from completely ruining their engagement. “You, falling to a bit of a blow? You must think I’m dumb.” It was obvious that there was more to the story than he was letting on, and, unfortunately for him, Daisy was one to snoop. “Tempting,” Daisy started, rocking her head from side to side as she contemplated, a chill running down her spine as his lips reached her ear. “What’s in it for me? I know you’re lonely, but I’ve got plenty of people to keep me occupied.” She never expected extra from people like Hans, but now that he was liberated, Daisy was tired of just helping him keep up an act.

After her first trip back to the Sanderson Sister’s old house Allison had been doing her own research. It wasn’t like anything had jumped out to her, nothing worth bringing back to Dani and Max yet. That didn’t mean she was going to stop. There was a hope for once, they had something. Sure it wasn’t much but to Allison it gave her the smallest thing to look towards. Even though she’d adjusted to life without her memories she wanted to know what they wanted to hide from them. If someone wanted to clear their memories they must know too much. She was coming to realize though that she didn’t need those back to know how she felt, though Allison had been pretending that they weren’t there. He’d met a girl anyway and she would never stand in his way, especially with her not even entirely knowing where she stood herself. Still when she saw her come into the bookstore all the blonde wanted to do was disappear into the walls. It was a quick spot from the other girl who made her way over with a smile, one that Allison couldn’t shake distrusting. “Daffodil, right?” She said putting a book back on the shelf and giving the girl a smile. “Funny seeing you here. What brings you back to New Salem?”

Daisy was most definitely not much of a reader, but after Max had said something about not being able to remember things because of a certain friend of hers, she found herself in the only bookshop in New Salem. She figured she’d have better luck there than some place in Echo Creek, anyway. Daisy did run the risk of running into people who she didn’t typically see, which included the exact blonde she did not want to see. Allison was practically standing right in her way as Daisy entered, and she couldn’t help but heave an irritated sigh. “Alexandra, isn’t it?” she greeted, botching her name in return. “It’s Daisy. This is a public store, you know.” She spotted one of the aisle headers, with history at the top. “I was just thinking of getting something for Max, actually! You know how big of a nerd he is, it’s so cute.”

Spending more time with Daisy felt like exactly what Max needed, his mind so cluttered with the bullshit about witches and his memories. It was hard to escape any of it with his sister constantly bugging him about it. Not to mention, her begging him to remember how much he’d loved Allison. It was painful to try to re-live, and more painful to realize he still didn’t fully remember. 

Daisy’s sweetness was reassuring, still getting used to getting this close to someone else besides Allison. He definitely didn’t want to screw this up. “That’s alright, I still had fun, anyway. I hope you did, too,” he smiled, gaze meeting hers as they headed to get a drink together. He let out a soft sigh at her question. “Just some stuff about the past, I guess, at the old Sanderson house. My sister showed me some shit that I’d apparently seen before, but I still don’t remember any of it.” It was frustrating, to say the least. “We’ve been fighting about it a lot, and it sucks. I wish she’d just get off my back sometimes.”

Daisy narrowed her eyes a bit. Sanderson? Like, her friend Sarah Sanderson? Daisy was going to have to be careful with this one. Though she had no idea what the blonde and her sisters had done to New Salem, she couldn’t indicate that she was friendly with someone who had apparent involvement in some of their memory loss. Max came with more baggage than Daisy had anticipated.

“Oh, I’m sorry about that. I don’t have siblings, but I bet it’s not fun fighting with them.” Daisy wondered if his sister had any idea about the two hanging out, but she hoped that she wouldn’t pose any sort of threat. Daisy didn’t really like the idea of hurting a child. “What do you mean, about not being able to remember? You didn’t, like, hit your head or something, did you?” she asked, and while she was playing dumb, she truly had no idea.

Daisy had told her friend a bit about Charlie, but not all of it. She wasn’t sure how much to give away while her plan was still in action, but Sarah seemed like someone who was willing and able to help her with her little problem. The blonde was just as devious as Daisy was, potentially even more so with the power her sisters had. “Locked away to be tortured is much preferred,” she agreed. “My ex. He’s literally the most frustrating prick I’ve ever met in my life, and I want to ruin him. I can’t tell if he’s handing his demise out to me on a platter or if he’s making my life a lot more difficult than I need it to be,” she explained with a groan. Charlie would sift through all the humans in Animania before he let her have her way, but the fun in it also involved waiting and watching him become increasingly lonely. “Have you ever tried to ruin a man before?”

Charlie just stared at her. She was so fucking insane that it made him feel sane. Alternatively, it awoke something in him. It made him just want to be crazier, more destructive, and he hated that she could pull anything out from him at all. “I gave you more attention than I gave anyone else. Is that not enough? Do you have any idea what I actually saw in you or are you so deluded that you think that it was all a game? Nothing was a game with you. Nothing was ever a game with us.” He rolled his eyes. “If I thought you deserved to know what you meant to me, than I would tell you. But in the end you were about as fucking deserving as these humans are. If I’m stupid for seeing how insane you are now, than I guess I’m a fuckin’ idiot.” He wanted to go. He didn’t want to waste his breath on her anymore. She pissed him off more than anyone else and it was just too much effort right now. “Even if I burn every relationship I have right now to the ground. I. Will. Never. Choose. You. Again. I will find others. I will move on. And what will you do? Waste your time trying to rid me of them all over again.”

Charlie had no idea that he was serving her exactly what she had wanted for years on a silver platter. It was almost too easy, taking his dignity from him without him even realizing it. “Oh, so I’m as deserving as the blondie, aren’t I?” she teased, a smirk forming on her lips. Daisy loved flipping back his words in a way that he didn’t mean. “You think you can move on from these silly little ones who have you wrapped around their finger? You’re more confident than I give you credit for. To think that you wouldn’t even have to think about any of this if we were a team,” she sighed sadly, giving a shake of her head while her hand found his cheek sweetly. “I just don’t know why you can’t get it in your head that you’ll never get rid of me, Charlie. I can’t be that horrible of company, could I? You’ve certainly done worse. The more you push me away, the more I’m determined to have you. It’s so silly, that you can’t see that.”

[daiisyduboiis]

"You're right, I want it." - hans

“Yeah?” Daisy couldn’t help but feel a sense of relief after Hans had told her that his engagement was off; she didn’t want to go anywhere near someone who was supposed to marry a girl who was super rich. It would be horrible for both her and the club to piss off someone important. Now that he was available, though, it was a different story. She didn’t know the entire truth to how they broke off the engagement, but, honestly, Daisy didn’t give a shit. “You can have whatever you want, now that you’re free as a bird.” She didn’t know what he was looking for out of her, but for the money that he had, and the way he could treat her with it, Daisy was willing to do whatever she had to to be in his good graces. “What I want is to know is how the hell you got little miss carrot top out of your life, for good. I’m so glad she won’t be following you like a lost puppy until the end of time.”

"It's all just a blur." -Paul

After a night at Wonderland, that much was obvious. Daisy had thought that this much would be obvious by now, given how much time they spent at the club--almost as much as the people who worked there. “What the hell did you drink? Or--take, I guess?” she asked, looking at Paul with an unimpressed expression. He seemed like he was smart enough to know his limits, but sometimes even Daisy herself got aa little too carried away when it was a good night at the club. “Did you wind up leaving with that guy, the one who Charlie’s obsessed with? I thought I saw him stop by. Who knew you both had the same taste?” she teased, giving him a smirk. It annoyed her beyond belief that Charlie was so taken by some older guy who she couldn’t even attempt to compete with, but if there was anyone who she could get reliable intel from, it was Paul.

"You've been stressed out lately." - paislee

Daisy rolled her eyes. Of course she was stressed, but was it that easy to tell? The reason for her stress was none other than the same guy who had been the reason for it for years, for as long as she could remember. The fact that her only real friend could tell that Charlie was affecting her was a terrible sign. “Yeah, because he continues to be the fucking worst,” she huffed, cutting the stems off the ends of some roses aggressively. “I don’t understand what he sees in this stupid blonde chick. She’s, like, this doe-eyed little child.” All Daisy could hope was that whatever Tyler had gotten out of the girl was worthwhile, since she apparently couldn’t lay a finger on the blonde herself. “You, on the other hand, seem to be a lot more calm than during the holidays. You do know that’s not going to last when all these procrastinating asssholess come to get their girlfriends roses in a few weeks, right?”

"I couldn't get away from ya." -Max

Max was right where Daisy wanted him. She had him in his grasp, and she was almost ready to strike. Time was winding down, too; she could feel him beginning to slip back into the grasp of his ex and his sister, who seemed to be her biggest obstacle here. Who knew a short little redhead was so dangerous? “You’re so cute,” she gushed, leaning her head on his shoulder as they sat on her couch. Unlike Duncan, he was one who took to her niceties, and probably couldn’t handle the real Daisy. She could be sugary sweet when she wanted to be, when the time and boy were right. “I’m so happy that I met you, Max,” Daisy cooed, looking up at him. “I’m so glad we’re back here together, too. Are you feeling okay? I made sure you didn’t have as many drinks this time as the last,” she joked.

With a physical push from Charlie, Daisy was energized. She wasn’t sure why the distance he had forcefully created between them had made her laugh, but one escaped her lips nonetheless. She was driving him insane, and it was all she had wanted from the start. Charlie truly thought that she wanted him back more than anything, and it was exactly where she had been trying to place him from the moment he left her. “Further than you ever could,” she replied confidently, finally regaining her balance. “You’re so small minded, Charlie, so stupid.” All she could hope was that his temper had gotten the best of him, that he’d effectively ruined his other relationships with how insane she was driving him. It wasn’t until she received confirmation on where he was at with the girl and the man. “Does it make you feel good to think that all I do is think about you? You really don’t know me at all. Maybe it would’ve done you some good to pay attention back in the day.”

[daiisyduboiis]

"I will never bore you, baby." - Duncan

Daisy gave him a chuckle, amused. There were so many more interesting people (and not people) who she had encountered in her life, and Duncan certainly wasn’t that entertaining. He definitely thought that he was, which was exactly why she had to make him think that she agreed. Human men were so exhausting; Charlie never needed her to indulge his ego quite like Duncan did. “How could I ever get tired of you?” she cooed, giving him a sweet smile. Though she was tempted to see him with a bruised ego, Duncan was a pretty scary guy; he could probably snap her in half if he wanted to. He was still thin, but far taller and stronger than Charlie could ever hope to be. If there was one of them she could say she was definitely terrified of, it was the one in front of him. “I hope to never bore you, either. I like to keep a man entertained. What can I do to keep you around?” she asked, raising a suggestive brow.

“There she is, my cup of ice cold water on a summer day, the wind beneath my wings, the one and only,” Tyler greeted dramatically, as soon as he was within hearing distance of Daisy – and, likely, also a dozen other people who were hanging around. Half of it was the joy in making a scene whenever he could, and half of it was the actual delight in having some free time to catch up with Daisy, just the two of them. There was a special kind of shady gossip that was always shared between the two that he couldn’t find with anyone else, really, so it was safe to call her an inspiration at this point. “Cure my headache, tell me something awful,” he requested, sprawling on the seat next to her, happy to rest achy bones on a day off.

Daisy couldn’t help but give Tyler a saccharine sweet smile as he approached her, her arm snaking around his neck the moment he reached her, taking a seat at her side. “Tyler, my dear,” she cooed, her mood immediately brightened by his presence. “Only the worst for you.” She thought to the party for the New Year, to what she had been plotting in her head since then for Tyler to do. Charlie had never said he couldn’t go anywhere near his new blonde plaything. “I have a job for you, actually. I think Charlie’s caught up with some new pretty little thing, and she gives me weird vibes. Something’s off with that one. I just wanted to have a chat with her myself, see what was up, and he told me I wasn’t allowed,” she pouted, giving him pleading eyes. “You think you could give her a little Wonderland welcome for me?”

[daiisyduboiis]

mdennison​:

His smile remained, easily remembering what it was he liked about Daisy. She was breathtaking, her voice sweet like honey as she admitted looking for him. Suddenly, any thoughts of his ex or his sister were on the back of Max’s mind. 

He couldn’t exactly remember what he had and hadn’t told Daisy the night he got too drunk with her ( not that he was complaining ). He shrugged his shoulders, as if playing it nonchalant despite that he was eager to have a drink with her. “Alright, I can do that,” he smirked, sticking out his arm so she could link hers into his. “I’m gonna be honest, I don’t remember what exactly I told you last time we hung out,” he chuckled, “So try not to make fun of me if I start repeating myself.”

Daisy had a feeling he wouldn’t remember much from the night they’d spent together based on what she’d given him to drink. All the best ones in Wonderland could make anyone black out after just one if they weren’t careful. Thankfully, she’d gotten used to the effects during her time working there that she had remembered everything.

With a small laugh, Daisy played along, slipping her arm into his. “Not to worry, I probably don’t remember hearing it.” Another white lie in the bucket, this one more harmless than the others. What would he tell her now that he had more control? “I would never make fun of you. Those drinks at the club can be pretty strong, I probably shouldn’t have given you so many,” she admitted, letting out an innocent laugh. “So, what did you go out looking for? Find anything good?”
