for once, RIDDLE isn’t upset with a rule breaker — how could he be when your pretty eyes are staring down at him? riddle feels like he’s alice, who’s just had an ‘eat me’, and is getting doted on by the flowers. you’re telling him how cute he is, complimenting his red hair and saying that it looks like a rose with a center-piece heart — you want to play with it, and style the little strands up! maybe he would even let you cut it yourself, rambling on about how you would do much better than he did (which, riddle doesn’t doubt. you’re perfect in every way, he’s sure you could easily make his hair look wonderful). he doesn’t know why you keep saying ‘maybe’ with all your wants, while riddle does understand that he’s a strict ‘tyrant’ (he still can’t get over the way you reacted to his book, talking about how unfair and sad his life has been, and that he just needs to be loved and cared for.. his heart races with every fraction of remembrance from his brain) he wishes he could let you know that you’d be able to do whatever you pleased with him — you could throw red paint in his face, stick white rose petals all over him next, and then finish it all off with flamingo feathers, and he’d walk around with his head held up high and chest puffed out like he was in haute couture. to be given attention from you is everything he’s ever wanted, needed. and to be touched by you is a faraway dream — one he’ll work hard to make come true. riddle won’t cut a single corner, and he won’t slack when it comes to his research. someday, you will be his.
TREY feels all the tension release from him once you’ve started tapping on him, rubbing your finger over his ‘sprites’ head and telling him how hard it must be to run around serving heartslabyul and riddle all the time. if only you knew.. he feels relieved when you’ve touched him enough to where he can finally let out a sigh, he wishes he could pull you in twisted wonderland and have little sneaky escapades with you — though the thought makes him feel like ace, or even cater, trey can’t lie that he’d do anything and go anywhere with you if he could. trey can only imagine the stress-free days that he’d have if you were by his side as more than.. this. you’re right, it’s so unfair, isn’t it? he shouldn’t, but trey finds it so cute watching you whine about how you want unbirthday parties, and you want to try all his delicious pastries — you bet he’s the best in all of twisted wonderland, eh? that’s certainly a big expectation.. but, he supposes that if you were never able to eat anything but his food, it wouldn’t be too hard to meet it. trey would spoil you rotten, he’d do any and everything for you – from cooking all of your meals, to bathing you and brushing your teeth, even dressing you and combing your hair. trey would do it all in a heartbeat, if he could. and while he may not have the magical capabilities or brains to do so, he could certainly steal you away if a little red-head somehow figured out how to.
you were nothing but an annoyance at first, just another bother with how you’d poke and pull on LEONA’s ears and tail, but all the sweet compliments and ego boosts you sent his way have gotten leona all buttered-up and softening for you. while he knows he shouldn’t – it’s not like the two of you could ever be together – you’ve watched all his cutscenes and read all the vingette stories, and you’re still giving him nothing but compliments. so cool in book 6!, you look so good in a collar leona!, i bet you could pick me up easily leona — ..while he does not agree with some of your statements, he lives for all of your praise, big or small, obvious or subtle, leona picks up on all of it better than the scent of fresh meat. there’s nothing quite like being number one, and you make leona feel just like that – talking about how good of a king he’d of made, how his intelligence and strength would’ve made such a formidable leader .. you’ve even called him the ‘king’ of your heart! to him, that title means even more than being that of the sunset savanna. for once, he hates the lazing around of his coding — leona wants to show off for you, make lots of sarcastic jokes to see you smile, and make some flirtatious comments to ses you flush. but instead, he’s groaning and pushing you away as he ‘tries’ to sleep. why can’t you just love the sudden switch to an otome-style game? your precious king leona coming to find you at ramshackle every morning, pulling your character into his chest and saying it’s the ‘only way for him to sleep soundly and comfortable’. leona has never gotten what he truly wanted, but now you’ve come along and not slacked with giving him a single thing he desired. leona isn’t going to give you up, he’ll search relentlessly once you shut off the game, every bit of his free time spent on finding a way to make you the one by his side. he finally doesn’t feel like number two, can you truly blame him for letting his pride down and being so desperate to find a way to experience this every day?
yet another good thing that isn’t quite real, RUGGIE thought everyone was an idiot for falling for you — you’re just some player of this game, why’re all these guys falling head-over-heels for someone they’ll never actually meet, or even talk to? ruggie doesn’t get it, he doesn’t get it until you’ve started giving him some attention too. you’re fawning over him for some reason, talking about how you want to spoil him and make him the tastiest food — you’re pretty strange, aren’tcha? not only is that physically impossible, but you want to do all that for someone like ruggie? he’d been rolling his eyes and huffing when you first started drowning him in attention, but soon it feels like gross bug has corrupted his coding, and he’s tailing your character around a patiently waiting for moments in the story line where it wouldn’t seem too weird if ruggie was in them! ya really like him, right? so you don’t even seem to care! sure, you got a confused look on your face for a split second (which, ruggie finds so cute! did he surprise ya?), but then you start reacting juustt like he wants! talking about how happy you are to see ruggie again, he’s barely been around since book 2, and now he’s finally getting more content! you’re even saying you hope he’s a ‘main’ character in this part of the story ... and who is he to deny his player’s wish? he’ll gladly push that adeuce to the side, throwing an arm around ‘yuu’s’ shoulder, talking to the stand-in sprite like it’s actually you — you’re giggling at the scenes and show he’s putting on, and that puts a smile on his face. shishishi, ya totally wanna spend more time with him, right? he’s more than fine with that! ruggie’s started changing to code, altering it slightly through his actions – there’s a few glitches popping up as you play, but they’re so minor you barely pay any attention to them! and ruggie’s doesn’t have a care in the world about it ... everyone else could glitch out and disappear, and he wouldn’t even notice. you’ve been so kind to him, thinking his rugged self is handsome, wanting to see more of him, and know more about him as a character — he can’t help the way he smiles and laughs, short tail hidden and free to swish, you’re so nice. there isn’t a feeling better than this, and he wants it in his world.
it’s certainly a ... unhappy experience for AZUL when he’s suddenly made aware of his existence being nothing but some code in a game thanks to you, but the feeling doesn’t last very long. with this knowledge, imagine just how easy it’ll be to make madol, and take advantage of everyone around him! though they’re not ‘alive’ like he is, nor does the ‘money’ really matter, but it makes him feel good — it gives azul something to do in this useless ‘life’, and he’s able to derive certain twisted pleasure from it. he plays along in your game, taking advantage of all the things you say you’d sign for if he were real, all kinds of things you’d do for these wishes of yours to come true – ah, if only you were in this world, he hears you say all the time, and azul can only imagine all the extortion he’d be able to use on you. you yearn for so much, so many things he wants to ... provide you? it’s a strange feeling in his stomach, one that should be turning his gut with disgust, but instead is making it flutter with ‘butterflies’. (as he’s heard you call it. yet another land dweller thing he doesn’t quite understand.. why are butterflies in your stomach? is your world okay?) you’re such a naïve soul, is your world so safe that it’s okay for you to be so... short sighted, he’ll say. azul knows that you wouldn’t last a day here in twisted wonderland, even if you wish to experience the loveliness of the world — you want to become merfolk, and you want to swim along with azul as he teaches you to use a fin. that would be nice, if it were possible. but, even knowing it is doesn’t stop azul’s mind from sparking ideas — his magic does grant the ability for any wish, does it not? what would happen if you were to make a contract for your wish? azul’s become desperate, his ‘heart’ crying out for you. he would give it all if it meant he could live a ‘human’ life beyond the screen like you do — he would do anything just to show you exactly how much he loves you.
knowing everything is nothing more than a simulation, well everything changes for JADE. there’s no real need for his little act anymore, is there now? the realization does leave him a bit disappointed, knowing that this means all his favorite things aren’t real either — but you are. the pretty face he sees every morning when you login, telling him a sweet good morning jade! as he slowly begins his little ‘takeover’ in your game system. you’re an interesting person, his interesting little human – do you truly wish to be in this ‘world’? trapped within the confines of a game, simply existing as code? while he teases your character for these things, breaking the fourth wall, jade can’t say he doesn’t wish for the same. it would be quite lovely if you were here with him, wouldn’t it be? jade could make all of your little dreams come true if that were the case, jade could wake you up every day with a kiss, take you under the sea to meet his folks, introduce you to the wonder of magic — everything possible, jade would do for you. such is the duty of a butler, as he’s been referred to many times. if he’s truly meant to be nothing but a video game character, nothing more than fictional entertainment for you, then how is his ‘heart’ able to race like this? how is jade able to turn a bright shade of blue when you say things that are deemed as romantic? to fall in love with you isn’t coded for the character he plays, can you truly still believe that he’s mindlessly carrying out programmed orders? really, you should know better — he’s your favorite after all, you should know better than anyone that he won’t do the things he doesn’t want, the things that hold no gain for him. soon, you’ll be just like jade. ‘mindless’ code that’s already got a set story – one right by his side for the rest of this games lifetime.
Could you please describe each faction/kingdom and who rules each one? like a description of the geographic layout if that's at all possible?
Ross appears and shoves a crude, slightly tattered map into your hands, seeming peeved.
“Alright, listen closely ‘cause I don’t have the patience to say this twice. Back before all this Hatter crap started, there were four regions all living in harmony, or what ever, blah blah blah…
“The Heartland is pretty self explanatory; the place with a big fuckin’ castle in the middle and the biggest population. This was where Mark’s family ruled. Used to be a fun place, kids playing and merchants on every street. Now it’s the only place that the Court has managed to keep under their control, and everything but the castle itself is in ruins.
“The Sea Kingdom was where Ethan’s family was in control. It’s mainly beaches and ports. Used to be a busy place, with fishermen and casual boaters, people looking to vacation, and shell collectors. His family was very wealthy, owned the whole place. Now it’s pretty barren there, but The Hatter likes to hang around there when he’s not.. busy.
“The Mountain region is a mining and industrial region. Its relatively untouched so far, but mostly ‘cause it isn’t much of a pleasant place to live, or even to work. People only go there anymore as an attempt to escape The Hatter, or to slave away in the mines. Anyway, Tyler used to work in the mines, and as an inventor’s apprentice. He was well known for his skills with mechanics and making little gadgets.
“And then there’s The Forest. That’s where Jack used to live. He was part of a group of nomads that maintained control of the forest and took care of it. They were pretty peaceful people, in charge of agriculture and livestock, but were well trained fighters. Pacifist ninjas or something, I still don’t understand, but to each their own… Few nomads are left now, and those that are still around have gone into hiding deep in the woods. The Hatter holds total control over the Forest, in every way. The Forest bends to his will, now. Kind of a kick in the face to all the hard work the Nomads put into keeping it a peaceful and undisturbed land.”
“I-I-It was crazy, Y-Yumeno-san..! Hoshi-kun just attacked me!!”
「🌠」The blood was fake, the tears were fake, EVERYTHING about this performance was fake. He needed to try and get people on edge, like someone, an “attacker” was among the group, and Yumeno was going to be the first person for him to test this on, to try and make everyone against each other..Just like he had planned from the beginning.
I just thought It’d be nice to do an introduction.. This will most likely be a temporary “introduction” since Mod Mickey does a better job with stuff than myself.. Me and Mod Mickey are the main mods so far, we’re currently not looking for any other mods Besides maybe an Oswald, but that’s...up for debate still.. I’d..rather not get into asks/submissions...Mod Mickey can handle that.. It’s late at night, so reblogging is all we’ll do for now.. Thanks.
