just Beanix haunting the narrative 😌

He chocked it up to being a brief sleep induced hallucination, but then again, he didn’t blame the guy.. There’s a reason both of them had married Sam.

[cozy-stardust]

Imagine Grace defined his name as the elegance definition of grace and Rocky spends years thinking how fucking ironic this clumsy leaky space blobs name is.

Until Grace slips out a sentence along the lines of "could you give me a little grace here" and Rocky immediately points out he used a word wrong so Grace has to explain that yeah, grace means elegance but it can also mean mercy sometimes too.

And Rocky has to suddenly reconcile that the clumsy leaky blob that saved his life twice, that almost certainly doomed himself to come back for him, name is Mercy.

[fizzy-tizzy]

Everyone knows the first day of Friend Grace’s class is nickname day. It’s the day when every pebble is on their best behavior to try and make sure they get a cool nickname, something unique that they can brag to their friends and classmates about.

Sometimes, Grace will do it without thinking. That’s how Kiddo and Buddy got their nicknames. Often, Grace will nickname students after their coloration. Gaia got his nickname because he’s blue and green, and apparently looks a lot like Earth. Violet got hers because she’s purple. (She was initially disappointed since color means nothing to Eridians, but then Friend Grace showed them violet flowers and said that humans often associated purple with wealth and royalty, and she changed her tune.) Most of the time, Grace will give his students what he calls “regular human names” like Abby, Carl, or Martin.

But the most coveted nicknames are ones named after Earthen creatures. When ♩♪♬ 🎵 ♩♪♬ 🎵 first introduced themselves, Friend Grace immediately perked up and shouted “Robin!” After a bit of explaining himself and a few videos of bird calls, Robin was trilling and chirping happily, excited at having a nickname that felt like a 1-to-1 translation of their own.

Even well after Friend Grace is gone, his legacy remains. A hundred years into the future, when humankind finally launches a new ship with the express purpose of properly meeting their Eridian neighbors, one of the first messages exchanged is “Hello! My name Robin.”

Many such cases

[dimonds456-art]

i had to

[skepticalhaloraccoonmonkey]

Ever after high au. I made and dont really plan to finish. So I'm releasing it into the wild and letting people do what ever with it.

Written more as guidelines than anything concrete.

Also WARNING ⚠️: LOTS OF GRAMMER AnD SPELLING MISTAKES. IN A RUSH TO POST THIS BEFORE AN EVENT. SO IM GONNA IGNORE THEM. BUT THEIR THERE!

Part 1.

“Tell em

Tell em

Tell EM

TELL THEM YOUR-”

Silence . just quiet . in a bleak eerie almost gothic look attic lays apple white. With shards of glass around her. The room is quiet. The mirror is broken. There’s a tall woman staring down at her.

“Apple white or so im told "she said in cold amusement in her tone. " Tell me dear. What brought you here? I know it wasn't to ask questions about spells you ROYALS never do."

I-

"Ah! I see, YOU came to ME thinking I could help YOU she said in a manipulative fun whine aunt type of way. She tsked three times while shaking her head. Apple deary, did you REALLY think I would help with whatever ploy you're cooking up? She laughed amusedly. Oh good little girl thought if she freed me I'd do something in return. Heh wel-"

I WANT YOUR HELP TO CONVINCE RAVEN TO SIGN THE STORY BOOK OF LEGENDS!

The tall women froze. Eyes grew cold in an instant. Sharp live everblade grass, she scanned apple as if looking for an enemy traitor mic, maybe a recording spell. When she didn't find what she was looking for she moved closer her feet gliding over the floorboard. Quickly grabbed apple’s face, with her sharp fingers her eyes glowed and for a second apple like she was watching her entire life being played in front of her eyes. But the feeling ended just as fast as it started, due to the tall woman removing her hand.

She crossed her arms in amusement and said let me get this straight from what ive seen from your memories, your DESPIRATE to get my daughter to agree to be your “evil queen” is that true? She said it as both a statement and a teasing knowing question.

I ,...........yes. Iam. please your her mother she’ll-

WHY? She said in a bored tone.

Apple blinked in confusion for a second. Excuse me ?

The chuckled oh deary me , it seems the apple truly DOESN'T fall far from the tree. There was both amusement and anger in her tone. TELL me, WHY are you so obsessed with her destiny??? Amused but cold in tone.

I just wanted to–

WHY?? She snarled.

BECAUSE IF SHE DOESNT I DONT GET TO HAVE MY HAPPLY EVER AFTER EITHER !

Then she gasped apple caught herself and covered her mouth as if she said a sin. The evil queen smiled. It was nasty , it was beautiful, she looked like a crow that FOUND something SHINY.

She eyed apple , her eyes gleeful in discord. Her smile grew three sizes in that moment and was more menacing. As she started appraising apple as if trying to figure out a little puzzle piece with a broken piece.

[skepticalhaloraccoonmonkey]

Part 2.

Apple on the other hand looked horrified by what she said. Like she couldnt believe that came out of. It seemed all those talks between raven and her were paying off. That some where in her subconscious NEW that someone like raven didnt deserve the betrayal that just came out of her month after months of building boundaries and learning to care about each other in a way that wasnt suffocating.

She broke it……………………………. And she KNEW there was no coming back . not without accountability. But THAT was something she COULDN'T afford letting people know she let out the evil queen. Let ALONE get help for something. It would RUIN HER and HER FAMILIES images, her mother would be furious at her father even more so.

And everyone at school KNOW what principal Grim does to the students that DON'T LISTEN. Raven only survived because of WHO her mother was and apple’s mother paying him to leave her alone to secure her daughters ever after. Apple COULDN'T AFFORD the consequences nor the punishment. Trying to think of a solution and failing, she started crying and spiraling.

The evil queen watched amused at the sight of the teenager in shambles. She could taste the feelings of guilt and panic. She chuckled. It was funny to the apple’s of the family tree panic when something doesn't go their way , they start looking whiter than a snowman. She observed the pathetic mess of a child and hummed considerably. She decided due to the girl's complicated feelings and no general ill will towards her daughter and decent relationship as friends and roommates. She could give her daughter a late birthday present after all nothing says i love you more than fixing your friends world view. After all just by the look of that pathetic state its obvious grim didn't tell her WHAT HER destiny meant for HER but also HER relationship with my daughter. Oh, my little raven bird (loving but with longing), you’ll forgive mommy for taking your apple core friend, yes? (lovingly teasing tone) after all if she wants you around she should learn HOW to MAKE proper CHOICES, no? What better way then to understand the gravity then to MAKE HER SEE IT, she smiled evilly. A smile that meant she KNEW how this was going to go.

She looked at the pathetic child and said

“Oh my, I wouldnt want my daughter sad, (mother gothel level tone manipulation)

……………..what?

She uses her power to pull and apple forward.

I SAID it would be a pity. To see you fail u-

So you’ll help-

NO.

Apple went quiet.

What I'm going to do is GIVE you two CHOICES. First I send you to a world, and alternate timeline if you will, that raven signed the story book and you see HOW that affected both you and her. Or choice number 2 you help me get rid of grim and you get to live your perfectly ever after with my magic support.

What do you say 1 or 2 (mother gothel manipulation vibes with heavy empathes on number 1 being the better option)

Apple goes quiet as she tries to rationalize both options. The evil queen sees this and smirks and starts saying

Tick tok tick tok tick tok *6

Apple started to worry and blurted out the first things she thought of.

………………………………………………………..she choose option 1.

The queen smirked and a puff of green magic that rivialed malificent appear like green puff with the speeds of stroms then a black purple potal opend up right under apple. The queen looked down on her and said youll only come back when you learn your lesson

Apple freaked out and panicked” LESSson???!!”

The queen huffed amused,” yes, lesson. About WHAT?I dont know it depends on what your heart wants, so here's hoping you have a good grasp on yourself, no? (she amusedly, still in gothel manipulation tone)

Good luck or youll end up like your mother.

………………famous?

No rotten( still gothel tone but vindication) she then let go and dropped apple in the portal watching her horrified face until it became no longer visible to her she hummed. And changed her look. She saw the shards on the floor and smiled. Mirra shards has a nice ring to it no. It's not every day this school gets a new student . she thought to herself in cruel amusement as she changed her appearance and closed the portal. The slowly floated into the shadows once more.

[skepticalhaloraccoonmonkey]

Small note: this is still part of the original timeline. We'll follow apple in the next part.

Part3.

It was morning at ever after high raven and m-

Maddie: hey narrator ! (excited)

Yes, hello to you too maddie. Now as i was it was-

Maddie: What are you doing?

Me? I'm narrating the story ?

Maddie: story??? But the coronation arc for the story book has already passed ? didn't you say there wouldn't BE a story until the wonderland arc?

Hah (nervous ) yes, well the schedule got updated by upper management so-

Maddie:oooooooooh. Okay ! you want to narrate my and my friend rae today ?

……….sure (greatful tone) sure lets do that.

Maddie: okay !

Raven : were you talking to the narrator again? (amused, and curious)

Madddie: yup! Said they brought him back early due to corporate you know how desk jobs our in this economy.

Raven chuckled, yeah i know, dad’s always stressed out trying to find ways to fund the poor families that live in our kingdom, it's exhausting. No solutions we try are working both short and long term are failing. And the kingdom is getting more angry at the lack of help screaming how ‘if the evil queen was here ! she gets it done within a flicker of a flip in her hand!’

(Sad tone) sighs, and well you know dad the moment moms brought up he clams up and looks towards her chair like he's lost a limb. I've tried using my magic to help. But well - you know how that goes when I try.

Maddie: cheer up! You and i both know its not lack of knowledge thats stopping you its fear-

Raven : maddie-

Maddie: nope, nope , nope siry you need to hear this just because your mother was strong magically doesn't mean you're going to become evil if you let yourself grow into her magic spectrum. I TRUST you. And you KNOW I'm NEVER wrong when it comes to trust. (matter a fact tone)

Raven laughs and in a soft tone goes yeah maddie i know.

Maddie smiles a big grin as they walk up the step and says good we have tea time soon.

Mirra Shards” enters the school and starts looking around and seeing the things head master grim was doing to pressure and brainwash the royal students into thinking and accepting their deatineys in small mickey mouse illuison type ways.

Raven realizes Apple is GONE, but doesnt know where to keep looking. So they talk to her royal friends to see if anyone know where she could have gone.

Mirra meeting Headmaster Grim (and speaking to him like he’s a child) ( subtle manipulating him in some doses, until he feels she is no threat)

The moment Raven SEES Mirra and her magic instinct just internal screams “mom??” but Mirra looks at her and smiles. And she shakes head and gaslights herself into thinking she just projecting. Mirra feels the energy her smile sweeter sneaky uses a spell so her do won't think twice of her appearance and a protection charm for thr bad curse grim put on her so the bad luck the royals had would strike on him instead.

Maddie realizing time-line meddling vibes are present and having a quiet conversation with the narrator where he quietly lets out that apple is on a self discovering journey and they dont know when she's coming back. Maddie nodding seriously " I see. I'll tell raven apples mother assigned her an emergency trip then. Thank you for your honesty."

Your welcome sadi the narrator quietly.

Mirra watching Raven leave and visibly holding back maternal panic. Her being angry at grim for putting that spell on her daughter and mastering it back to him so he suffer the consequences of it, but in a way that won't make him notice.

Raven believing Maddie instantly when she says apple was swnt on a time travel legacy mission by apples mother. Because you know mres.white she loves the families appearacne. Raven believed Maddie because she NEVER lies about time-level stuff.

Mirra somewhere watching, realizing Maddie is guarding her daughter and being greatful and sending 50 tokens to get to wonderland as a quiet thank you, teleported in her doorm.

Maddie RECEIVES the tokens and goes

“oh wow a mom reward” like it's normal. Then cutting to

Mirra whispering “thank you, Wonderland girl” to the wind. Hope you like visiting wondering land with them. And using a spell so Maddie can hear her " use the tokens on the wishing well, the portal to wonderland will open. It'll give 24 hours to be there before it closes, thank you. I've watched for years behind the mirrors. You one of the only good things she has. So consider this a thank you and a way to get through my spell and into wonderland again. Well see each other someday Maddie. I hope to thank you properly when I do." And she sank into the shadows like she was never there and maddie smiled fidgeting with the coins.

Mirra thinking back on maddie and Ravens friendship and the trust between over the years and looks proud-sad.

Raven comforting Maddie because she looks too calm at getting Wonderland tokens that can literally send her home for 24 hours. Then followed quietly by Maddie realizing the “someday” is a promise not a threat.

Raven trying to subconsciously call her mom through magic like a lost kid and getting frustrated that it happening because she hasn't seen her mother in almost 10 years physically and 10 months in the mirror prison that only gives her an hour to talk to her a year. She should nt be mourning someone WHO CANT BE HERE.

Maddie lying for the first time in her life ( telling raven apple was assigned to do something by applea mothers) — and the universe twitching. Looking at the sky. she asks the narrator about what happened to apple and if she's going to be okay. The narrator softly says

" emotionally no. But that's part of healing and growing up. This is going to be a BIG change for her. She's doing to grow emotionally and she might not be ready to see of hear the truth. But your friends apple needed the wake up call before she accidentally ruined her friendship with your friend raven. "We" ( actually just the evil queen. Corporate jumped on her coatails) made an intervention. Gave her opinions. She chose to go to the one that would help her be a better person. Don't worry she has her own narrator watching over her. From the reports they've sent she's fine and she learning to be better one step at a time. It's a massive change to the timeline, but its a needed one if we to continue treating you like people."

Maddie nods i see i hope she's fine

The narrator smiles its okay, I know she is.

[skepticalhaloraccoonmonkey]

Part 4. Finally going to see apples side of things.

Apple fell through the portal screaming. He landed hard on the concrete. She got up shakily. She looked around confused. She saw a beautiful kingdom with clean streets. She walked around for hours she saw beautiful buildings, parks, technological advances she could never dream off. But then she stops when she sees the date. Its 100 years since her current time. Apple goes pale she doesnt understand why she was sent by the evil queen so far ahead and satrts panickly cursing. But then stops as she walks past a shop that sells tvs. As she looks at them showing a news segment that raven queen was finally goign to be released from prison for posing apple white with a posited apple. At first apple was happy that meant raven did follow her story book role. But forze when she saw here. She looked to be around her late 20s. But that shouldnt be possible. She walked in the store and pretended to be new around the town. The manger saw her and looked a bit disgusted and aksed if she was an apple white fan. She says yes but for the fashion more than anything. He nodes but you can see the judgment in those eyes. He tells her the direction of a local library. She thanks him and makes her way over there. She needs to know why raven looks so young despite the fact she should be at least 117 now. And she doesnt see a single wrinkle on her face.

She reaches the library. She uses one of the guest computers. She searches uo Ravens name.

She finds a paper talking about her positing.

' the victim beloved crowned princess soon to be sworn queen Apple White. Was posited by her enemy Raven Queen on her birthday. Raven invited to the borthday bash finally decided to fulfill her destiny thay day. She posited an apple pie. Told apple it was home made and had her try it after the party. The poison had a couple if hours if a delay to hit apples systems. According to the police it was structures so if apple ate it earlier. Raven couldn't be blames as she made sure to be visible the whole party. Raven Queens husband Dexter charming the borther in law if apple white. Was devastated to see his beloved wife thrown in prison. It was said he refused to talk to apple or her husband his brother at fanily events and would daily visit his wife in prison. Apple white lives to be 89 years old. While raven was awaiting trail during her mid 20s. One of the cops had an idea to punish her. Since the average life span of human was around 70 years old and apple was trapped in coma feom the posing for about 4 years. And the poisoning. She got almost 90 years in jail and to make sure she lived to surve the sentence they used a spell that would stall her aging. Dexter heart broken found a copy of the spell and used it as well. That way he could be with his beloved wife once she was released. Apple white has 4 currently alive descendants. None of them took the white name after her passing and all took on the charming fanily name.' Apple freezes. She didnt realize the law would hit raven that hard. She was supposed to wake up right away. Raven should have only gotten at least 2 years. Apple started spiraling when she realized she might have ruined her friendship life over their stories.

She trys soothing herself. Ties to tell herself it wasnt that bad. When she gets back she'll make sure raven doesn't get arrested for that long. Sign a concentrated form anything. She can migrate the damage. SHE HAS TO. And then she stops as sick and twisted voice behind her asks what about the other. Because it wasnt just raven that didnt want to sign. What about the other rebels and so she goes on a 4 hour rabbit hole as she watches classmate after classmates lives from the rebel faction at school live miserably. They all looked annoyed ir upset in most photos. Once they hit thier 40snthey didnt even try to pretend they were happy. And she shakes when she realizes her friend brair isnt there and then she freezes. Because she remembers her friend was the daughter of sleeping beauty caused to sleep for 100 years. She would also have suspended age too because of the curse. Thay means she also just woke up recently around this time too. And she just stares at the computer as reality of what her and thr other royals made the rebels sign hit her woth full force.

She shakily gets up. She walks into a shelter. She gets their common people clothes. Changes her hair style. She doesnt want to be seen in her old clothes. She needs to look normal. She needs to see how everyone looks with her own eyes. But the problem is almost everyone is dead. She was sent too far away and now old age has taken them. All but 3. She decided to look for her best friend. Briar had to be around her somewhere. She wouldn't leave the kingdom. Apple knows that. So she looks around after almost 6 hours of walking she finds her. Briar beauty in all her glory looking to be around 24. And apple feels her self freeze because their 16 in her time. If Briar looks 24 that means she only has 8 more years with her best friend before never seeing her again. She sees brair looking around clueless like she did when she got here. And that makes her stomach sink because that means she just woke up around this time. And eveyone but raven and Dexter are now gone..

She wants to walk over to her. But she doesnt know if brair will be happy to see her. Not when she convinced her to sign the storybook. When she trapped her like this. Apple can feel her eyes blurry and his breathing hardens. She needs to leave before she can upset herself more. She turns and runs. Meanwhile raven is finally let out of prison. She leaves not expecting anyone to pick her up because she believes Dexter is dead and they never had kids. But to her surprise. She sees a black car pull up. She stops thinking shes going to be kidnapped only to see the door slammed open and her husband Dexter charming running to her looking the same way he did when she was sent to prison. Dexter hadn't visited in 3 years. She had thought he was finally gone. That the spell ended earlier and he died of old age. But no here he he beaming like a wrong had been rightened. He hugged her tightly and kissed all over face telling her how happy he was thats she can come home now. She slowly leaned in to his arms more. He grabbed her and brought her to the car askign her how shes been and if shes okay and how happy shes going to be the the chnages he made int heir pocket of the kingdom. And he cant waht to have her reinstated as his queen.

Dexter shows raven all the changes he made to their district in the kingdom. The freedom from the stroy book he made. People that will worship her like a queen who was wronged and not an evil encountress. He showed her the castle ans how he kept as mych as he could from her father. Kept the portraits of her mother and father. Kept as much as her stuff as he could. The system changes he made to benefit nfit people like her that didint want their story. And she cries and she tells him shes sorry that he's stuck with her because of the soryr book of legends. Dexter snorts. And tells her he's loves her since the first day of high school. He was one of the ones who signed the book assume knowing it would bind him to her. Their marriage is something he js very proud off. No matter how areanged it felt. He does care. That love was never fake. And she cries even more as she hugs him.

[skepticalhaloraccoonmonkey]

Part 5

Meanwhile apple is crying. Everyone is dead. He poor best friend was forced to sleep for 100 years and now live with the knowledge she out lived all her friends. Raven lost 90 years. Dear god raven how is appl supposed to show her face to her. She got her her arrested for what was basically a life sentence. Did older apple even visit her. Did she feel guilt ?... did apple white from the incident even stop to care?... and apple feel her slef good cold when she realized she didn't even look to see if older apple tired to help lower Ravens sentence or do anything at all. And she collapses looking at the stars sky in shock... at having her selfishness thrown in her face by her own guilty awareness.

Apple after hours finally gets up. She walks to an internet Cafe. She goes on the free computer. She need this. She needs to know if her older self grew. That she want as selfish as she currently is. That this short sidedness is just teenage ignorance and NOT who she is as a person. She hold her breath internally praying that she hadn't become her mother in the worst ways. And after an hour shes sees. She opens an archive. And in it she sees she tried to lower it to 20 years after she finally woke up. But the legal fight took " too much" money so she stoped. And didnt bother with it. And apple sits there in shock. At the fact older apple fought for raven to get 20 years. Why not 4, 6? WHY 20? Did older apple really have a grade that raven took so long to do her villain role?? Or worse did older apple not care about her now that raven fulfilled that role. And apple sits there for once in her life feeling disgusted with what shes become. She gulps as she continues reading through the archive. She finds that older apple visited raven. Acting like they were still freebies and raven allowing it because that meant she could talk to someone other than Dexter. The only two that visted her consistently. Especially since Maddie couldn't due to the wonderland curse and could visit once in a blue moon when the well teleported just right. But luckly she video chatted and phone called ad much as the prison allowed her too. So it made the ache of missing her less severe.

Apple shakes but continues to read. She NEEDS to know why her older shelf is like ths. Why is she - and she stops. She a picture of herself. Her mother... she LOOKS LIKE HER MOTHER. From the stance to the smile to the way she hoves behind her kids.. she BECAME JUST LIKE HER MOTHER.... she freezes just as that though hits through and the conversation with the eveil queen comes to her. ' good luck or youll end up like your mothet. Famous? no. ROTTON. The queen KNEW... she KNEW what would happen... she repeating her mother's cycle.. thr apple whites winning over the evil queens ans never ONCE thinking back on what happened to the queen after.. that IS HER LEGACY.. the one part the queen KNEW apple was never told.

And she stands there not knowing what to do. Because the queen was right. She through in a timeline where raven signed and made sure apple would see THE OUTCOME of the choice. Not just the actions. She wanted her to SEE it. So she could TRUELY understand what she was askign for. And now she does.. and she doesnt know how to fix it. The queen said the session. Would end once she knew what her heart wanted. But what is that? Going back and make change? See what she built and how she lived? She eanted her story and she got it.. but she was sent to the ever after of it.. so what does she want now? Is it understanding raven? Fixing there relationship?? This raven doesnt know her. She knows and grew up with the old apple. Apple is 16... she not the one raven knows... does she even have a right to ask her for understanding?? To know her peace ESPECIALLY when raven was just let out of prison.. wouldn't that be trespassing somewhere she shouldnt be? Like holy ground?? What is she supposed to do now???

She decided to wait for a week. Clearly yhe queen wanted her to under stand her choice and what better way then to ask raven directly how her actions affected her. But she also knows raven just got out. She alos knows that Dexter probably wont leave her side for a whole now that he can hold her again. So need to find a way to get an audience with them and have them listen to her long enough to explain them the situation so she can learn and hopefully go home.

[skepticalhaloraccoonmonkey]

Part 6.

After 2 weeks of trying to get a private audience she gets it. But Dexter demands a private appointment the day before apple agrees. She enters the castle Dexter maid. Its BEAUTIFUL and Gothic. With just enough royal blue and summer gold to look inviting. Dexter dod well using raven childhood famoly decorations. Apple thinks raven must be happy at how loves and preserved Dexter keep the queen heirlooms from Ravens mother.

Apple goes in the office. And Dexter looks at her like a dismissive ceo.

Dexter: why are here you apple white? If that even is your real name?

Apple: .. it is. Im here because the evil queen from my time sent me here.

Dexter: 🤨 from your time?

Apple: yes im from the time where raven didnt sign the story book .

Dexter : ... she didnt sign?

Apple: no. The queen sent me here to see a timeline where raven did sign. She said i should see the what my want to follow my story would do.

Dexter:... how long have you been here .

Apple: 2 weeks. I would have came sooner but I got her the same day raven was released.

Dexter looked angry.

Apple: i decided not to visit since it felt rude and imposing after I went to the library and read what happened.

Dexter nods. Evaluating her.

Dexter: and you requested an audience because?

Apple: the queen said i would come back home until I learned my lesson. I believe understand the harm I caused here is what im learning. And everyone else is dead. Ive read their lives. Buy i didnt read much of mine.. it felt too revolting if im being honest.

Dexter hums .

Dexter : and your here now because of what GUILT?

APPLE: no. Not guilt.

Dexter looks angry.

Apple: im here to hear Ravens side of my actions. No excuses, no story justifying. Just her account.

Dexter goes quiet.

Dexter:.. you want to her my wifes opinion on the role you forced her to play.

Apple:.. not opinion i want her honesty on what happened and how that ruined her life.

Dexter: and why should I let you see her?

Apple: you dont have too. I just wanted understanding before I get sent back home.

Dexter looks at he unimpressed.

Dexter: tsk. Ill allow it.

Apple perks up.

Dexter: not because I trust YOUR STORY. But because if your telling the truth raven would be happy to know at least ONE Apple was willing to change. And she would get peace of mind knowing she helped. I expected you hear at 1pm sharp. Am I understood

Apple: yes sir.

Dexter: good get out of my castle.

Apple bowed and left following the knight outide.

Apple arrives 10 minuets early. Not because she wanted to. But because she couldn't afford to be late. Not for this. Not when she was finally allowed an audience. The guard let her in at 1pm. She follows without complaints. And there in the throne room stands raven queen looking like a delicate Gothic rose. A style borrowed from her mother. Rings from her father. Wearing clothes of peopel she loves and can no longer be there. Apple bows. Not because she has to. But because she knows she cost this raven evrything that mattered and that deserves respect. So she bows and quietly in her times it to make sure it lasts a proper respectful bow. She wants raven to know she sorry for what future apple did as well as show respect in mighting the now queen. She gets up. And she sees raven and Dexter holding hands.

Raven: I've been told by my husband your situation.. the raven from your timeline didnt sign the story book?

Apple: no ma'am. She didnt.

Raven: mother sent you here?

Apple: yes. She said come her and see the consequences of signing the book. Or I help her get rid of grim.

Raven laughs.

Raven: mother dearest always had a way with dealing with problems.

Dexter thumb rubs Ravens hand.

She simles.

Raven: good times... good. Its nice to know shes alive in your time. Now tell me dear what brought you hear.

Raven tilts her head curiously and for a second apple see the queen behind her doing the same thing and she simles thinking she making progress .

Apple: well you see ma'am I was told I would see what my actions here cost and everyone else is dead. Ive researched but that doesnt mean nuch.in understanding. You where the main victim of future apple. I wanted to hear the truth, the honest truth from you.

Raven hums.

Raven: you want my honesty so you can understand what you've done wrong?

Apple: no ma'am. I know im wrong. I want your honesty so I can under HOW I hurt people.

Raven smiles shes always dreamed of this. Of apple chosing ti bw understanding and not a propaganda machine and she finally has it.

She smiles the same crow simle. And opens a portal. She makes apple watch what raven went through. The way future apple ignored the way Ravens reputation tanked because of legacy. The way royals acted like everything was perfect now the rebels where follow the story. The way apple slowly became like her mother. Colder more image obessed ruining a fortune 500 company and kingdom like a beloved tyrant. He desires need to control narrative and apple sliently cries as she sees hwo warped future apple becomes. Mirroring her mother exactly. Being the next heir to the white name. And she sees it the way time after time after time she dismisses raven. Not even maliciously. Future apple thinks SHE knows better. So raven asking or import is irrelevant. And once its all said and done apple sits on the floor looking at the floor in horror. And does the only thing she can think of and tells raven shes sorry.

Raven smiles a cold smile and tells her not to apologize. The apple who did this is dead. She from a different timeline. Now that she knows she'll be better. Apple nods vicariously. But beofre she can say anything. The evil queens portal open under her and she fall hard through it. But takes raven a second to realize what happened and she laighs hard. Dexter looks confused and asked raven what happened. Raven tells him her mother brought her back. Dexter nods. And takes her to the garden for theyr lunch.

Apple falls hard on her bed. She looks around relieved she back home. She checks the calender just in case and everything is where its supposed to be. She relaxes for the first time since she released the queen. She understands now. She doesnt need to fix anything. She just needs to be better. She just needa to be a better friend. The school has friendship classes. She should attend those. Maybe they can help her. She hears a small voice in the back of her head says And she knows she can help.. by helping the evil queen get girm kicked out if school. After all if thr school stops pressuring destiny then maybe the kids of the future will have it better. But she shakes the though out of her head. Shes sure the queen went after grim next. She just needs to focus on being a better friend. Meanwhile the queen is readying up on what has happened in the last 10 years while she was imprisoned.

Part 1.

“Tell em

Tell em

Tell EM

TELL THEM YOUR-”

Silence . just quiet . in a bleak eerie almost gothic look attic lays apple white. With shards of glass around her. The room is quiet. The mirror is broken. There’s a tall woman staring down at her.

“Apple white or so im told "she said in cold amusement in her tone. " Tell me dear. What brought you here? I know it wasn't to ask questions about spells you ROYALS never do."

I-

"Ah! I see, YOU came to ME thinking I could help YOU she said in a manipulative fun whine aunt type of way. She tsked three times while shaking her head. Apple deary, did you REALLY think I would help with whatever ploy you're cooking up? She laughed amusedly. Oh good little girl thought if she freed me I'd do something in return. Heh wel-"

I WANT YOUR HELP TO CONVINCE RAVEN TO SIGN THE STORY BOOK OF LEGENDS!

The tall women froze. Eyes grew cold in an instant. Sharp live everblade grass, she scanned apple as if looking for an enemy traitor mic, maybe a recording spell. When she didn't find what she was looking for she moved closer her feet gliding over the floorboard. Quickly grabbed apple’s face, with her sharp fingers her eyes glowed and for a second apple like she was watching her entire life being played in front of her eyes. But the feeling ended just as fast as it started, due to the tall woman removing her hand.

She crossed her arms in amusement and said let me get this straight from what ive seen from your memories, your DESPIRATE to get my daughter to agree to be your “evil queen” is that true? She said it as both a statement and a teasing knowing question.

I ,...........yes. Iam. please your her mother she’ll-

WHY? She said in a bored tone.

Apple blinked in confusion for a second. Excuse me ?

The chuckled oh deary me , it seems the apple truly DOESN'T fall far from the tree. There was both amusement and anger in her tone. TELL me, WHY are you so obsessed with her destiny??? Amused but cold in tone.

I just wanted to–

WHY?? She snarled.

BECAUSE IF SHE DOESNT I DONT GET TO HAVE MY HAPPLY EVER AFTER EITHER !

Then she gasped apple caught herself and covered her mouth as if she said a sin. The evil queen smiled. It was nasty , it was beautiful, she looked like a crow that FOUND something SHINY.

She eyed apple , her eyes gleeful in discord. Her smile grew three sizes in that moment and was more menacing. As she started appraising apple as if trying to figure out a little puzzle piece with a broken piece.

[skepticalhaloraccoonmonkey]

Part 2.

Apple on the other hand looked horrified by what she said. Like she couldnt believe that came out of. It seemed all those talks between raven and her were paying off. That some where in her subconscious NEW that someone like raven didnt deserve the betrayal that just came out of her month after months of building boundaries and learning to care about each other in a way that wasnt suffocating.

She broke it……………………………. And she KNEW there was no coming back . not without accountability. But THAT was something she COULDN'T afford letting people know she let out the evil queen. Let ALONE get help for something. It would RUIN HER and HER FAMILIES images, her mother would be furious at her father even more so.

And everyone at school KNOW what principal Grim does to the students that DON'T LISTEN. Raven only survived because of WHO her mother was and apple’s mother paying him to leave her alone to secure her daughters ever after. Apple COULDN'T AFFORD the consequences nor the punishment. Trying to think of a solution and failing, she started crying and spiraling.

The evil queen watched amused at the sight of the teenager in shambles. She could taste the feelings of guilt and panic. She chuckled. It was funny to the apple’s of the family tree panic when something doesn't go their way , they start looking whiter than a snowman. She observed the pathetic mess of a child and hummed considerably. She decided due to the girl's complicated feelings and no general ill will towards her daughter and decent relationship as friends and roommates. She could give her daughter a late birthday present after all nothing says i love you more than fixing your friends world view. After all just by the look of that pathetic state its obvious grim didn't tell her WHAT HER destiny meant for HER but also HER relationship with my daughter. Oh, my little raven bird (loving but with longing), you’ll forgive mommy for taking your apple core friend, yes? (lovingly teasing tone) after all if she wants you around she should learn HOW to MAKE proper CHOICES, no? What better way then to understand the gravity then to MAKE HER SEE IT, she smiled evilly. A smile that meant she KNEW how this was going to go.

She looked at the pathetic child and said

“Oh my, I wouldnt want my daughter sad, (mother gothel level tone manipulation)

……………..what?

She uses her power to pull and apple forward.

I SAID it would be a pity. To see you fail u-

So you’ll help-

NO.

Apple went quiet.

What I'm going to do is GIVE you two CHOICES. First I send you to a world, and alternate timeline if you will, that raven signed the story book and you see HOW that affected both you and her. Or choice number 2 you help me get rid of grim and you get to live your perfectly ever after with my magic support.

What do you say 1 or 2 (mother gothel manipulation vibes with heavy empathes on number 1 being the better option)

Apple goes quiet as she tries to rationalize both options. The evil queen sees this and smirks and starts saying

Tick tok tick tok tick tok *6

Apple started to worry and blurted out the first things she thought of.

………………………………………………………..she choose option 1.

The queen smirked and a puff of green magic that rivialed malificent appear like green puff with the speeds of stroms then a black purple potal opend up right under apple. The queen looked down on her and said youll only come back when you learn your lesson

Apple freaked out and panicked” LESSson???!!”

The queen huffed amused,” yes, lesson. About WHAT?I dont know it depends on what your heart wants, so here's hoping you have a good grasp on yourself, no? (she amusedly, still in gothel manipulation tone)

Good luck or youll end up like your mother.

………………famous?

No rotten( still gothel tone but vindication) she then let go and dropped apple in the portal watching her horrified face until it became no longer visible to her she hummed. And changed her look. She saw the shards on the floor and smiled. Mirra shards has a nice ring to it no. It's not every day this school gets a new student . she thought to herself in cruel amusement as she changed her appearance and closed the portal. The slowly floated into the shadows once more.

Small note: this is still part of the original timeline. We'll follow apple in the next part.

Part3.

It was morning at ever after high raven and m-

Maddie: hey narrator ! (excited)

Yes, hello to you too maddie. Now as i was it was-

Maddie: What are you doing?

Me? I'm narrating the story ?

Maddie: story??? But the coronation arc for the story book has already passed ? didn't you say there wouldn't BE a story until the wonderland arc?

Hah (nervous ) yes, well the schedule got updated by upper management so-

Maddie:oooooooooh. Okay ! you want to narrate my and my friend rae today ?

……….sure (greatful tone) sure lets do that.

Maddie: okay !

Raven : were you talking to the narrator again? (amused, and curious)

Madddie: yup! Said they brought him back early due to corporate you know how desk jobs our in this economy.

Raven chuckled, yeah i know, dad’s always stressed out trying to find ways to fund the poor families that live in our kingdom, it's exhausting. No solutions we try are working both short and long term are failing. And the kingdom is getting more angry at the lack of help screaming how ‘if the evil queen was here ! she gets it done within a flicker of a flip in her hand!’

(Sad tone) sighs, and well you know dad the moment moms brought up he clams up and looks towards her chair like he's lost a limb. I've tried using my magic to help. But well - you know how that goes when I try.

Maddie: cheer up! You and i both know its not lack of knowledge thats stopping you its fear-

Raven : maddie-

Maddie: nope, nope , nope siry you need to hear this just because your mother was strong magically doesn't mean you're going to become evil if you let yourself grow into her magic spectrum. I TRUST you. And you KNOW I'm NEVER wrong when it comes to trust. (matter a fact tone)

Raven laughs and in a soft tone goes yeah maddie i know.

Maddie smiles a big grin as they walk up the step and says good we have tea time soon.

Mirra Shards” enters the school and starts looking around and seeing the things head master grim was doing to pressure and brainwash the royal students into thinking and accepting their deatineys in small mickey mouse illuison type ways.

Raven realizes Apple is GONE, but doesnt know where to keep looking. So they talk to her royal friends to see if anyone know where she could have gone.

Mirra meeting Headmaster Grim (and speaking to him like he’s a child) ( subtle manipulating him in some doses, until he feels she is no threat)

The moment Raven SEES Mirra and her magic instinct just internal screams “mom??” but Mirra looks at her and smiles. And she shakes head and gaslights herself into thinking she just projecting. Mirra feels the energy her smile sweeter sneaky uses a spell so her do won't think twice of her appearance and a protection charm for thr bad curse grim put on her so the bad luck the royals had would strike on him instead.

Maddie realizing time-line meddling vibes are present and having a quiet conversation with the narrator where he quietly lets out that apple is on a self discovering journey and they dont know when she's coming back. Maddie nodding seriously " I see. I'll tell raven apples mother assigned her an emergency trip then. Thank you for your honesty."

Your welcome sadi the narrator quietly.

Mirra watching Raven leave and visibly holding back maternal panic. Her being angry at grim for putting that spell on her daughter and mastering it back to him so he suffer the consequences of it, but in a way that won't make him notice.

Raven believing Maddie instantly when she says apple was swnt on a time travel legacy mission by apples mother. Because you know mres.white she loves the families appearacne. Raven believed Maddie because she NEVER lies about time-level stuff.

Mirra somewhere watching, realizing Maddie is guarding her daughter and being greatful and sending 50 tokens to get to wonderland as a quiet thank you, teleported in her doorm.

Maddie RECEIVES the tokens and goes

“oh wow a mom reward” like it's normal. Then cutting to

Mirra whispering “thank you, Wonderland girl” to the wind. Hope you like visiting wondering land with them. And using a spell so Maddie can hear her " use the tokens on the wishing well, the portal to wonderland will open. It'll give 24 hours to be there before it closes, thank you. I've watched for years behind the mirrors. You one of the only good things she has. So consider this a thank you and a way to get through my spell and into wonderland again. Well see each other someday Maddie. I hope to thank you properly when I do." And she sank into the shadows like she was never there and maddie smiled fidgeting with the coins.

Mirra thinking back on maddie and Ravens friendship and the trust between over the years and looks proud-sad.

Raven comforting Maddie because she looks too calm at getting Wonderland tokens that can literally send her home for 24 hours. Then followed quietly by Maddie realizing the “someday” is a promise not a threat.

Raven trying to subconsciously call her mom through magic like a lost kid and getting frustrated that it happening because she hasn't seen her mother in almost 10 years physically and 10 months in the mirror prison that only gives her an hour to talk to her a year. She should nt be mourning someone WHO CANT BE HERE.

Maddie lying for the first time in her life ( telling raven apple was assigned to do something by applea mothers) — and the universe twitching. Looking at the sky. she asks the narrator about what happened to apple and if she's going to be okay. The narrator softly says

" emotionally no. But that's part of healing and growing up. This is going to be a BIG change for her. She's doing to grow emotionally and she might not be ready to see of hear the truth. But your friends apple needed the wake up call before she accidentally ruined her friendship with your friend raven. "We" ( actually just the evil queen. Corporate jumped on her coatails) made an intervention. Gave her opinions. She chose to go to the one that would help her be a better person. Don't worry she has her own narrator watching over her. From the reports they've sent she's fine and she learning to be better one step at a time. It's a massive change to the timeline, but its a needed one if we to continue treating you like people."

Maddie nods i see i hope she's fine

The narrator smiles its okay, I know she is.

[skepticalhaloraccoonmonkey]

Part 4. Finally going to see apples side of things.

Apple fell through the portal screaming. He landed hard on the concrete. She got up shakily. She looked around confused. She saw a beautiful kingdom with clean streets. She walked around for hours she saw beautiful buildings, parks, technological advances she could never dream off. But then she stops when she sees the date. Its 100 years since her current time. Apple goes pale she doesnt understand why she was sent by the evil queen so far ahead and satrts panickly cursing. But then stops as she walks past a shop that sells tvs. As she looks at them showing a news segment that raven queen was finally goign to be released from prison for posing apple white with a posited apple. At first apple was happy that meant raven did follow her story book role. But forze when she saw here. She looked to be around her late 20s. But that shouldnt be possible. She walked in the store and pretended to be new around the town. The manger saw her and looked a bit disgusted and aksed if she was an apple white fan. She says yes but for the fashion more than anything. He nodes but you can see the judgment in those eyes. He tells her the direction of a local library. She thanks him and makes her way over there. She needs to know why raven looks so young despite the fact she should be at least 117 now. And she doesnt see a single wrinkle on her face.

She reaches the library. She uses one of the guest computers. She searches uo Ravens name.

She finds a paper talking about her positing.

' the victim beloved crowned princess soon to be sworn queen Apple White. Was posited by her enemy Raven Queen on her birthday. Raven invited to the borthday bash finally decided to fulfill her destiny thay day. She posited an apple pie. Told apple it was home made and had her try it after the party. The poison had a couple if hours if a delay to hit apples systems. According to the police it was structures so if apple ate it earlier. Raven couldn't be blames as she made sure to be visible the whole party. Raven Queens husband Dexter charming the borther in law if apple white. Was devastated to see his beloved wife thrown in prison. It was said he refused to talk to apple or her husband his brother at fanily events and would daily visit his wife in prison. Apple white lives to be 89 years old. While raven was awaiting trail during her mid 20s. One of the cops had an idea to punish her. Since the average life span of human was around 70 years old and apple was trapped in coma feom the posing for about 4 years. And the poisoning. She got almost 90 years in jail and to make sure she lived to surve the sentence they used a spell that would stall her aging. Dexter heart broken found a copy of the spell and used it as well. That way he could be with his beloved wife once she was released. Apple white has 4 currently alive descendants. None of them took the white name after her passing and all took on the charming fanily name.' Apple freezes. She didnt realize the law would hit raven that hard. She was supposed to wake up right away. Raven should have only gotten at least 2 years. Apple started spiraling when she realized she might have ruined her friendship life over their stories.

She trys soothing herself. Ties to tell herself it wasnt that bad. When she gets back she'll make sure raven doesn't get arrested for that long. Sign a concentrated form anything. She can migrate the damage. SHE HAS TO. And then she stops as sick and twisted voice behind her asks what about the other. Because it wasnt just raven that didnt want to sign. What about the other rebels and so she goes on a 4 hour rabbit hole as she watches classmate after classmates lives from the rebel faction at school live miserably. They all looked annoyed ir upset in most photos. Once they hit thier 40snthey didnt even try to pretend they were happy. And she shakes when she realizes her friend brair isnt there and then she freezes. Because she remembers her friend was the daughter of sleeping beauty caused to sleep for 100 years. She would also have suspended age too because of the curse. Thay means she also just woke up recently around this time too. And she just stares at the computer as reality of what her and thr other royals made the rebels sign hit her woth full force.

She shakily gets up. She walks into a shelter. She gets their common people clothes. Changes her hair style. She doesnt want to be seen in her old clothes. She needs to look normal. She needs to see how everyone looks with her own eyes. But the problem is almost everyone is dead. She was sent too far away and now old age has taken them. All but 3. She decided to look for her best friend. Briar had to be around her somewhere. She wouldn't leave the kingdom. Apple knows that. So she looks around after almost 6 hours of walking she finds her. Briar beauty in all her glory looking to be around 24. And apple feels her self freeze because their 16 in her time. If Briar looks 24 that means she only has 8 more years with her best friend before never seeing her again. She sees brair looking around clueless like she did when she got here. And that makes her stomach sink because that means she just woke up around this time. And eveyone but raven and Dexter are now gone..

She wants to walk over to her. But she doesnt know if brair will be happy to see her. Not when she convinced her to sign the storybook. When she trapped her like this. Apple can feel her eyes blurry and his breathing hardens. She needs to leave before she can upset herself more. She turns and runs. Meanwhile raven is finally let out of prison. She leaves not expecting anyone to pick her up because she believes Dexter is dead and they never had kids. But to her surprise. She sees a black car pull up. She stops thinking shes going to be kidnapped only to see the door slammed open and her husband Dexter charming running to her looking the same way he did when she was sent to prison. Dexter hadn't visited in 3 years. She had thought he was finally gone. That the spell ended earlier and he died of old age. But no here he he beaming like a wrong had been rightened. He hugged her tightly and kissed all over face telling her how happy he was thats she can come home now. She slowly leaned in to his arms more. He grabbed her and brought her to the car askign her how shes been and if shes okay and how happy shes going to be the the chnages he made int heir pocket of the kingdom. And he cant waht to have her reinstated as his queen.

Dexter shows raven all the changes he made to their district in the kingdom. The freedom from the stroy book he made. People that will worship her like a queen who was wronged and not an evil encountress. He showed her the castle ans how he kept as mych as he could from her father. Kept the portraits of her mother and father. Kept as much as her stuff as he could. The system changes he made to benefit nfit people like her that didint want their story. And she cries and she tells him shes sorry that he's stuck with her because of the soryr book of legends. Dexter snorts. And tells her he's loves her since the first day of high school. He was one of the ones who signed the book assume knowing it would bind him to her. Their marriage is something he js very proud off. No matter how areanged it felt. He does care. That love was never fake. And she cries even more as she hugs him.

[skepticalhaloraccoonmonkey]

Part 5

Meanwhile apple is crying. Everyone is dead. He poor best friend was forced to sleep for 100 years and now live with the knowledge she out lived all her friends. Raven lost 90 years. Dear god raven how is appl supposed to show her face to her. She got her her arrested for what was basically a life sentence. Did older apple even visit her. Did she feel guilt ?... did apple white from the incident even stop to care?... and apple feel her slef good cold when she realized she didn't even look to see if older apple tired to help lower Ravens sentence or do anything at all. And she collapses looking at the stars sky in shock... at having her selfishness thrown in her face by her own guilty awareness.

Apple after hours finally gets up. She walks to an internet Cafe. She goes on the free computer. She need this. She needs to know if her older self grew. That she want as selfish as she currently is. That this short sidedness is just teenage ignorance and NOT who she is as a person. She hold her breath internally praying that she hadn't become her mother in the worst ways. And after an hour shes sees. She opens an archive. And in it she sees she tried to lower it to 20 years after she finally woke up. But the legal fight took " too much" money so she stoped. And didnt bother with it. And apple sits there in shock. At the fact older apple fought for raven to get 20 years. Why not 4, 6? WHY 20? Did older apple really have a grade that raven took so long to do her villain role?? Or worse did older apple not care about her now that raven fulfilled that role. And apple sits there for once in her life feeling disgusted with what shes become. She gulps as she continues reading through the archive. She finds that older apple visited raven. Acting like they were still freebies and raven allowing it because that meant she could talk to someone other than Dexter. The only two that visted her consistently. Especially since Maddie couldn't due to the wonderland curse and could visit once in a blue moon when the well teleported just right. But luckly she video chatted and phone called ad much as the prison allowed her too. So it made the ache of missing her less severe.

Apple shakes but continues to read. She NEEDS to know why her older shelf is like ths. Why is she - and she stops. She a picture of herself. Her mother... she LOOKS LIKE HER MOTHER. From the stance to the smile to the way she hoves behind her kids.. she BECAME JUST LIKE HER MOTHER.... she freezes just as that though hits through and the conversation with the eveil queen comes to her. ' good luck or youll end up like your mothet. Famous? no. ROTTON. The queen KNEW... she KNEW what would happen... she repeating her mother's cycle.. thr apple whites winning over the evil queens ans never ONCE thinking back on what happened to the queen after.. that IS HER LEGACY.. the one part the queen KNEW apple was never told.

And she stands there not knowing what to do. Because the queen was right. She through in a timeline where raven signed and made sure apple would see THE OUTCOME of the choice. Not just the actions. She wanted her to SEE it. So she could TRUELY understand what she was askign for. And now she does.. and she doesnt know how to fix it. The queen said the session. Would end once she knew what her heart wanted. But what is that? Going back and make change? See what she built and how she lived? She eanted her story and she got it.. but she was sent to the ever after of it.. so what does she want now? Is it understanding raven? Fixing there relationship?? This raven doesnt know her. She knows and grew up with the old apple. Apple is 16... she not the one raven knows... does she even have a right to ask her for understanding?? To know her peace ESPECIALLY when raven was just let out of prison.. wouldn't that be trespassing somewhere she shouldnt be? Like holy ground?? What is she supposed to do now???

She decided to wait for a week. Clearly yhe queen wanted her to under stand her choice and what better way then to ask raven directly how her actions affected her. But she also knows raven just got out. She alos knows that Dexter probably wont leave her side for a whole now that he can hold her again. So need to find a way to get an audience with them and have them listen to her long enough to explain them the situation so she can learn and hopefully go home.

Maddie:oooooooooh. Okay ! you want to narrate my and my friend rae today ?

……….sure (greatful tone) sure lets do that.

Maddie: okay !

Raven : were you talking to the narrator again? (amused, and curious)

Madddie: yup! Said they brought him back early due to corporate you know how desk jobs our in this economy.

Raven chuckled, yeah i know, dad’s always stressed out trying to find ways to fund the poor families that live in our kingdom, it's exhausting. No solutions we try are working both short and long term are failing. And the kingdom is getting more angry at the lack of help screaming how ‘if the evil queen was here ! she gets it done within a flicker of a flip in her hand!’

(Sad tone) sighs, and well you know dad the moment moms brought up he clams up and looks towards her chair like he's lost a limb. I've tried using my magic to help. But well - you know how that goes when I try.

Maddie: cheer up! You and i both know its not lack of knowledge thats stopping you its fear-

Raven : maddie-

Maddie: nope, nope , nope siry you need to hear this just because your mother was strong magically doesn't mean you're going to become evil if you let yourself grow into her magic spectrum. I TRUST you. And you KNOW I'm NEVER wrong when it comes to trust. (matter a fact tone)

Raven laughs and in a soft tone goes yeah maddie i know.

Maddie smiles a big grin as they walk up the step and says good we have tea time soon.

Mirra Shards” enters the school and starts looking around and seeing the things head master grim was doing to pressure and brainwash the royal students into thinking and accepting their deatineys in small mickey mouse illuison type ways.

Raven realizes Apple is GONE, but doesnt know where to keep looking. So they talk to her royal friends to see if anyone know where she could have gone.

Mirra meeting Headmaster Grim (and speaking to him like he’s a child) ( subtle manipulating him in some doses, until he feels she is no threat)

The moment Raven SEES Mirra and her magic instinct just internal screams “mom??” but Mirra looks at her and smiles. And she shakes head and gaslights herself into thinking she just projecting. Mirra feels the energy her smile sweeter sneaky uses a spell so her do won't think twice of her appearance and a protection charm for thr bad curse grim put on her so the bad luck the royals had would strike on him instead.

Maddie realizing time-line meddling vibes are present and having a quiet conversation with the narrator where he quietly lets out that apple is on a self discovering journey and they dont know when she's coming back. Maddie nodding seriously " I see. I'll tell raven apples mother assigned her an emergency trip then. Thank you for your honesty."

Your welcome sadi the narrator quietly.

Mirra watching Raven leave and visibly holding back maternal panic. Her being angry at grim for putting that spell on her daughter and mastering it back to him so he suffer the consequences of it, but in a way that won't make him notice.

Raven believing Maddie instantly when she says apple was swnt on a time travel legacy mission by apples mother. Because you know mres.white she loves the families appearacne. Raven believed Maddie because she NEVER lies about time-level stuff.

Mirra somewhere watching, realizing Maddie is guarding her daughter and being greatful and sending 50 tokens to get to wonderland as a quiet thank you, teleported in her doorm.

Maddie RECEIVES the tokens and goes

“oh wow a mom reward” like it's normal. Then cutting to

Mirra whispering “thank you, Wonderland girl” to the wind. Hope you like visiting wondering land with them. And using a spell so Maddie can hear her " use the tokens on the wishing well, the portal to wonderland will open. It'll give 24 hours to be there before it closes, thank you. I've watched for years behind the mirrors. You one of the only good things she has. So consider this a thank you and a way to get through my spell and into wonderland again. Well see each other someday Maddie. I hope to thank you properly when I do." And she sank into the shadows like she was never there and maddie smiled fidgeting with the coins.

Mirra thinking back on maddie and Ravens friendship and the trust between over the years and looks proud-sad.

Raven comforting Maddie because she looks too calm at getting Wonderland tokens that can literally send her home for 24 hours. Then followed quietly by Maddie realizing the “someday” is a promise not a threat.

Raven trying to subconsciously call her mom through magic like a lost kid and getting frustrated that it happening because she hasn't seen her mother in almost 10 years physically and 10 months in the mirror prison that only gives her an hour to talk to her a year. She should nt be mourning someone WHO CANT BE HERE.

Maddie lying for the first time in her life ( telling raven apple was assigned to do something by applea mothers) — and the universe twitching. Looking at the sky. she asks the narrator about what happened to apple and if she's going to be okay. The narrator softly says

" emotionally no. But that's part of healing and growing up. This is going to be a BIG change for her. She's doing to grow emotionally and she might not be ready to see of hear the truth. But your friends apple needed the wake up call before she accidentally ruined her friendship with your friend raven. "We" ( actually just the evil queen. Corporate jumped on her coatails) made an intervention. Gave her opinions. She chose to go to the one that would help her be a better person. Don't worry she has her own narrator watching over her. From the reports they've sent she's fine and she learning to be better one step at a time. It's a massive change to the timeline, but its a needed one if we to continue treating you like people."

Maddie nods i see i hope she's fine

The narrator smiles its okay, I know she is.

[skepticalhaloraccoonmonkey]

Part 4. Finally going to see apples side of things.

Apple fell through the portal screaming. He landed hard on the concrete. She got up shakily. She looked around confused. She saw a beautiful kingdom with clean streets. She walked around for hours she saw beautiful buildings, parks, technological advances she could never dream off. But then she stops when she sees the date. Its 100 years since her current time. Apple goes pale she doesnt understand why she was sent by the evil queen so far ahead and satrts panickly cursing. But then stops as she walks past a shop that sells tvs. As she looks at them showing a news segment that raven queen was finally goign to be released from prison for posing apple white with a posited apple. At first apple was happy that meant raven did follow her story book role. But forze when she saw here. She looked to be around her late 20s. But that shouldnt be possible. She walked in the store and pretended to be new around the town. The manger saw her and looked a bit disgusted and aksed if she was an apple white fan. She says yes but for the fashion more than anything. He nodes but you can see the judgment in those eyes. He tells her the direction of a local library. She thanks him and makes her way over there. She needs to know why raven looks so young despite the fact she should be at least 117 now. And she doesnt see a single wrinkle on her face.

She reaches the library. She uses one of the guest computers. She searches uo Ravens name.

She finds a paper talking about her positing.

' the victim beloved crowned princess soon to be sworn queen Apple White. Was posited by her enemy Raven Queen on her birthday. Raven invited to the borthday bash finally decided to fulfill her destiny thay day. She posited an apple pie. Told apple it was home made and had her try it after the party. The poison had a couple if hours if a delay to hit apples systems. According to the police it was structures so if apple ate it earlier. Raven couldn't be blames as she made sure to be visible the whole party. Raven Queens husband Dexter charming the borther in law if apple white. Was devastated to see his beloved wife thrown in prison. It was said he refused to talk to apple or her husband his brother at fanily events and would daily visit his wife in prison. Apple white lives to be 89 years old. While raven was awaiting trail during her mid 20s. One of the cops had an idea to punish her. Since the average life span of human was around 70 years old and apple was trapped in coma feom the posing for about 4 years. And the poisoning. She got almost 90 years in jail and to make sure she lived to surve the sentence they used a spell that would stall her aging. Dexter heart broken found a copy of the spell and used it as well. That way he could be with his beloved wife once she was released. Apple white has 4 currently alive descendants. None of them took the white name after her passing and all took on the charming fanily name.' Apple freezes. She didnt realize the law would hit raven that hard. She was supposed to wake up right away. Raven should have only gotten at least 2 years. Apple started spiraling when she realized she might have ruined her friendship life over their stories.

She trys soothing herself. Ties to tell herself it wasnt that bad. When she gets back she'll make sure raven doesn't get arrested for that long. Sign a concentrated form anything. She can migrate the damage. SHE HAS TO. And then she stops as sick and twisted voice behind her asks what about the other. Because it wasnt just raven that didnt want to sign. What about the other rebels and so she goes on a 4 hour rabbit hole as she watches classmate after classmates lives from the rebel faction at school live miserably. They all looked annoyed ir upset in most photos. Once they hit thier 40snthey didnt even try to pretend they were happy. And she shakes when she realizes her friend brair isnt there and then she freezes. Because she remembers her friend was the daughter of sleeping beauty caused to sleep for 100 years. She would also have suspended age too because of the curse. Thay means she also just woke up recently around this time too. And she just stares at the computer as reality of what her and thr other royals made the rebels sign hit her woth full force.

She shakily gets up. She walks into a shelter. She gets their common people clothes. Changes her hair style. She doesnt want to be seen in her old clothes. She needs to look normal. She needs to see how everyone looks with her own eyes. But the problem is almost everyone is dead. She was sent too far away and now old age has taken them. All but 3. She decided to look for her best friend. Briar had to be around her somewhere. She wouldn't leave the kingdom. Apple knows that. So she looks around after almost 6 hours of walking she finds her. Briar beauty in all her glory looking to be around 24. And apple feels her self freeze because their 16 in her time. If Briar looks 24 that means she only has 8 more years with her best friend before never seeing her again. She sees brair looking around clueless like she did when she got here. And that makes her stomach sink because that means she just woke up around this time. And eveyone but raven and Dexter are now gone..

She wants to walk over to her. But she doesnt know if brair will be happy to see her. Not when she convinced her to sign the storybook. When she trapped her like this. Apple can feel her eyes blurry and his breathing hardens. She needs to leave before she can upset herself more. She turns and runs. Meanwhile raven is finally let out of prison. She leaves not expecting anyone to pick her up because she believes Dexter is dead and they never had kids. But to her surprise. She sees a black car pull up. She stops thinking shes going to be kidnapped only to see the door slammed open and her husband Dexter charming running to her looking the same way he did when she was sent to prison. Dexter hadn't visited in 3 years. She had thought he was finally gone. That the spell ended earlier and he died of old age. But no here he he beaming like a wrong had been rightened. He hugged her tightly and kissed all over face telling her how happy he was thats she can come home now. She slowly leaned in to his arms more. He grabbed her and brought her to the car askign her how shes been and if shes okay and how happy shes going to be the the chnages he made int heir pocket of the kingdom. And he cant waht to have her reinstated as his queen.

Dexter shows raven all the changes he made to their district in the kingdom. The freedom from the stroy book he made. People that will worship her like a queen who was wronged and not an evil encountress. He showed her the castle ans how he kept as mych as he could from her father. Kept the portraits of her mother and father. Kept as much as her stuff as he could. The system changes he made to benefit nfit people like her that didint want their story. And she cries and she tells him shes sorry that he's stuck with her because of the soryr book of legends. Dexter snorts. And tells her he's loves her since the first day of high school. He was one of the ones who signed the book assume knowing it would bind him to her. Their marriage is something he js very proud off. No matter how areanged it felt. He does care. That love was never fake. And she cries even more as she hugs him.

[skepticalhaloraccoonmonkey]

Ever after high au. I made and dont really plan to finish. So I'm releasing it into the wild and letting people do what ever with it.

Written more as guidelines than anything concrete.

Also WARNING ⚠️: LOTS OF GRAMMER AnD SPELLING MISTAKES. IN A RUSH TO POST THIS BEFORE AN EVENT. SO IM GONNA IGNORE THEM. BUT THEIR THERE!

Part 1.

“Tell em

Tell em

Tell EM

TELL THEM YOUR-”

Silence . just quiet . in a bleak eerie almost gothic look attic lays apple white. With shards of glass around her. The room is quiet. The mirror is broken. There’s a tall woman staring down at her.

“Apple white or so im told "she said in cold amusement in her tone. " Tell me dear. What brought you here? I know it wasn't to ask questions about spells you ROYALS never do."

I-

"Ah! I see, YOU came to ME thinking I could help YOU she said in a manipulative fun whine aunt type of way. She tsked three times while shaking her head. Apple deary, did you REALLY think I would help with whatever ploy you're cooking up? She laughed amusedly. Oh good little girl thought if she freed me I'd do something in return. Heh wel-"

I WANT YOUR HELP TO CONVINCE RAVEN TO SIGN THE STORY BOOK OF LEGENDS!

The tall women froze. Eyes grew cold in an instant. Sharp live everblade grass, she scanned apple as if looking for an enemy traitor mic, maybe a recording spell. When she didn't find what she was looking for she moved closer her feet gliding over the floorboard. Quickly grabbed apple’s face, with her sharp fingers her eyes glowed and for a second apple like she was watching her entire life being played in front of her eyes. But the feeling ended just as fast as it started, due to the tall woman removing her hand.

She crossed her arms in amusement and said let me get this straight from what ive seen from your memories, your DESPIRATE to get my daughter to agree to be your “evil queen” is that true? She said it as both a statement and a teasing knowing question.

I ,...........yes. Iam. please your her mother she’ll-

WHY? She said in a bored tone.

Apple blinked in confusion for a second. Excuse me ?

The chuckled oh deary me , it seems the apple truly DOESN'T fall far from the tree. There was both amusement and anger in her tone. TELL me, WHY are you so obsessed with her destiny??? Amused but cold in tone.

I just wanted to–

WHY?? She snarled.

BECAUSE IF SHE DOESNT I DONT GET TO HAVE MY HAPPLY EVER AFTER EITHER !

Then she gasped apple caught herself and covered her mouth as if she said a sin. The evil queen smiled. It was nasty , it was beautiful, she looked like a crow that FOUND something SHINY.

She eyed apple , her eyes gleeful in discord. Her smile grew three sizes in that moment and was more menacing. As she started appraising apple as if trying to figure out a little puzzle piece with a broken piece.

[skepticalhaloraccoonmonkey]

Part 2.

Apple on the other hand looked horrified by what she said. Like she couldnt believe that came out of. It seemed all those talks between raven and her were paying off. That some where in her subconscious NEW that someone like raven didnt deserve the betrayal that just came out of her month after months of building boundaries and learning to care about each other in a way that wasnt suffocating.

She broke it……………………………. And she KNEW there was no coming back . not without accountability. But THAT was something she COULDN'T afford letting people know she let out the evil queen. Let ALONE get help for something. It would RUIN HER and HER FAMILIES images, her mother would be furious at her father even more so.

And everyone at school KNOW what principal Grim does to the students that DON'T LISTEN. Raven only survived because of WHO her mother was and apple’s mother paying him to leave her alone to secure her daughters ever after. Apple COULDN'T AFFORD the consequences nor the punishment. Trying to think of a solution and failing, she started crying and spiraling.

The evil queen watched amused at the sight of the teenager in shambles. She could taste the feelings of guilt and panic. She chuckled. It was funny to the apple’s of the family tree panic when something doesn't go their way , they start looking whiter than a snowman. She observed the pathetic mess of a child and hummed considerably. She decided due to the girl's complicated feelings and no general ill will towards her daughter and decent relationship as friends and roommates. She could give her daughter a late birthday present after all nothing says i love you more than fixing your friends world view. After all just by the look of that pathetic state its obvious grim didn't tell her WHAT HER destiny meant for HER but also HER relationship with my daughter. Oh, my little raven bird (loving but with longing), you’ll forgive mommy for taking your apple core friend, yes? (lovingly teasing tone) after all if she wants you around she should learn HOW to MAKE proper CHOICES, no? What better way then to understand the gravity then to MAKE HER SEE IT, she smiled evilly. A smile that meant she KNEW how this was going to go.

She looked at the pathetic child and said

“Oh my, I wouldnt want my daughter sad, (mother gothel level tone manipulation)

……………..what?

She uses her power to pull and apple forward.

I SAID it would be a pity. To see you fail u-

So you’ll help-

NO.

Apple went quiet.

What I'm going to do is GIVE you two CHOICES. First I send you to a world, and alternate timeline if you will, that raven signed the story book and you see HOW that affected both you and her. Or choice number 2 you help me get rid of grim and you get to live your perfectly ever after with my magic support.

What do you say 1 or 2 (mother gothel manipulation vibes with heavy empathes on number 1 being the better option)

Apple goes quiet as she tries to rationalize both options. The evil queen sees this and smirks and starts saying

Tick tok tick tok tick tok *6

Apple started to worry and blurted out the first things she thought of.

………………………………………………………..she choose option 1.

The queen smirked and a puff of green magic that rivialed malificent appear like green puff with the speeds of stroms then a black purple potal opend up right under apple. The queen looked down on her and said youll only come back when you learn your lesson

Apple freaked out and panicked” LESSson???!!”

The queen huffed amused,” yes, lesson. About WHAT?I dont know it depends on what your heart wants, so here's hoping you have a good grasp on yourself, no? (she amusedly, still in gothel manipulation tone)

Good luck or youll end up like your mother.

………………famous?

No rotten( still gothel tone but vindication) she then let go and dropped apple in the portal watching her horrified face until it became no longer visible to her she hummed. And changed her look. She saw the shards on the floor and smiled. Mirra shards has a nice ring to it no. It's not every day this school gets a new student . she thought to herself in cruel amusement as she changed her appearance and closed the portal. The slowly floated into the shadows once more.

[skepticalhaloraccoonmonkey]

Small note: this is still part of the original timeline. We'll follow apple in the next part.

Part3.

It was morning at ever after high raven and m-

Maddie: hey narrator ! (excited)

Yes, hello to you too maddie. Now as i was it was-

Maddie: What are you doing?

Me? I'm narrating the story ?

Maddie: story??? But the coronation arc for the story book has already passed ? didn't you say there wouldn't BE a story until the wonderland arc?

Hah (nervous ) yes, well the schedule got updated by upper management so-

Maddie:oooooooooh. Okay ! you want to narrate my and my friend rae today ?

……….sure (greatful tone) sure lets do that.

Maddie: okay !

Raven : were you talking to the narrator again? (amused, and curious)

Madddie: yup! Said they brought him back early due to corporate you know how desk jobs our in this economy.

Raven chuckled, yeah i know, dad’s always stressed out trying to find ways to fund the poor families that live in our kingdom, it's exhausting. No solutions we try are working both short and long term are failing. And the kingdom is getting more angry at the lack of help screaming how ‘if the evil queen was here ! she gets it done within a flicker of a flip in her hand!’

(Sad tone) sighs, and well you know dad the moment moms brought up he clams up and looks towards her chair like he's lost a limb. I've tried using my magic to help. But well - you know how that goes when I try.

Raven : maddie-

Part 1.

“Tell em

Tell em

Tell EM

TELL THEM YOUR-”

Silence . just quiet . in a bleak eerie almost gothic look attic lays apple white. With shards of glass around her. The room is quiet. The mirror is broken. There’s a tall woman staring down at her.

“Apple white or so im told "she said in cold amusement in her tone. " Tell me dear. What brought you here? I know it wasn't to ask questions about spells you ROYALS never do."

I-

"Ah! I see, YOU came to ME thinking I could help YOU she said in a manipulative fun whine aunt type of way. She tsked three times while shaking her head. Apple deary, did you REALLY think I would help with whatever ploy you're cooking up? She laughed amusedly. Oh good little girl thought if she freed me I'd do something in return. Heh wel-"

I WANT YOUR HELP TO CONVINCE RAVEN TO SIGN THE STORY BOOK OF LEGENDS!

The tall women froze. Eyes grew cold in an instant. Sharp live everblade grass, she scanned apple as if looking for an enemy traitor mic, maybe a recording spell. When she didn't find what she was looking for she moved closer her feet gliding over the floorboard. Quickly grabbed apple’s face, with her sharp fingers her eyes glowed and for a second apple like she was watching her entire life being played in front of her eyes. But the feeling ended just as fast as it started, due to the tall woman removing her hand.

She crossed her arms in amusement and said let me get this straight from what ive seen from your memories, your DESPIRATE to get my daughter to agree to be your “evil queen” is that true? She said it as both a statement and a teasing knowing question.

I ,...........yes. mam. please your her mother she’ll-

WHY? She said in a bored tone.

Apple blinked in confusion for a second. Excuse me ?

Then chuckled oh deary me , it seems the apple truly DOESN'T fall far from the tree. There was both amusement and anger in her tone. TELL me, WHY are you so obsessed with her destiny??? Amused but cold in tone.

I just wanted to–

WHY?? She snarled.

BECAUSE IF SHE DOESNT I DONT GET TO HAVE MY HAPPLY EVER AFTER EITHER !

Then she gasped. apple caught herself and covered her mouth as if she said a sin. The evil queen smiled. It was nasty , it was beautiful, she looked like a crow that FOUND something SHINY.

She eyed apple , her eyes gleeful in discord. Her smile grew three sizes in that moment and was more menacing. As she started appraising apple as if trying to figure out a little puzzle piece with a broken piece.

Seer Shang Qinghua AU

Shen Qingqiu: A seer, ay? Let's test that theory. Tell me, how will I die?

Shang Qinghua: You will die after years of torture, ripped limb by limb, and succumbing to death after learning about the fate of one you hold closest

Shen Qingqiu, nervous: I doubt a cheap fraud like you knows what he's talking about

~

Yue Qingyuan: You really upset my shidi. Are you sure the future you tell will become true?

Shang Qinghua: You will fail trying to save him for the second time, and it will cost both of you your lives

Yue Qingyuan, getting up: I- I need to go

~

Luo Bingge: Hmph! Is anyone capable of striking me down?

Shang Qinghua: You will gain everything you thought you wanted, and you will die miserable knowing it was never what you truly needed

Luo Bingge, stunned: ...

Mobei-Jun: So you're the seer. Tell me, how do I die?

Shang Qinghua: You won't

Mobei-Jun: What?

Shang Qinghua: I will not allow it
