IMAGINE IF DREAM RIDDLE END UP BEING HIS BETA-DESIGN VERSION ?!
Hear me out !
In his beta design, Riddle was supposed to be the COMPLETE opposite of what he is now.
He was going to be a spoiled brat that hated studying, a selfish demander that always broke the rules and his promises. The only thing that was kept was that no one dared to go against him because he had strong magic.
( Info taken from RoseEmber ‘s video on YouTube, GO CHECK THEM OUT).
Spoiler alert for Diasomnia Book !
We saw how different the Dreams can be especially for those with a great imagination (which seems to have been strong mages and Dorm Leaders as of now).
THIS is especially visible with the Overblot cases.
Vil imagined an entire new career path with Neige being his servant (assistant).
Jamil imagined himself being in Kalim’s Place and even created a new school.
Azul changed HIS ENTIRE CHILDHOOD in order to become someone completely different. The others were still different but they kept some of their original aspects. Azul became a fan of sport and a even bigger bully. And he also never developed his Unique Magic.
All of these stemmed from the fact that the dreams controlled by Malleus can never lead to sadness/anger and the like. (Floyd being the odd one out in this case).
So in order for Riddle to have a happy dream, his overbearing mother must not be in the picture. Or she acts completely differently.
This means that he could do as he always wished ! He could play with Trey and Cheny’a as much as he wanted ! He could eat as many strawberry tarts as he wants !
Naturally that would mean that his temperament would greatly change just like with Azul and the others.
Imagine him becoming what he was supposed to be in the Beta Version. A spoiled brat that did as he wished without caring about rules or promises.
THAT would be something.
Side Notes :
I imagine Trey’s version of Riddle in his dream would be very similar.
Also it would be extremely funny to see Savanaclaw’s reaction to Riddle having a best friend from RSA (especially Leona and Ruggie).
Ps:
This is what Riddle’s Beta-Design was like !
