OPEN || TAKEN

I told you, I can’t die ||

Being an older brother was not what he had always wanted to be. But it was definitely something he was meant for. Growing up, he was always given the responsibility of looking after his little sister, Emily. While he wanted to go out and have fun with his friends, he always had to let his sister tag along. This was never a problem for them. Thatchery was always happy to have his baby sister with him. But as he grew older it became more about freedom and he was left to feel like he was nothing more than a glorified baby sitter. His parents would always tell him “well you’re her brother” and “she wants to be with you”. Both of which were true but as a teen boy he felt more like a service to them than their actual son. After all, he spent more time parenting Emily than they ever had since she was born. Which was why when she went missing in the middle of the night, he felt responsible.

Thatchery was able to track her down by the sound of the Sanderson sister’s voice. But when he got there it was too late. Emily was drained and they were young and beautiful. Angry and filled with nothing but regret, he attacked them. He knew full well that this wouldn’t bring Emily back but it was enough to make them pay for what they did to her and every other child in Salem. They were too much for him to handle and Thatchery was turned into a black cat. Cursed to return to this cat form once the moon was in the night sky every night. But as time went on he realized that that wasn’t the end of his curse. As he watched his parents and every one around him age and slowly die, he realized that they had also cursed him to age as slowly as he had felt he arrived to save Emily.

Two hundred years and still searching for a cure or something that could at the very least put an end to the Sandersons. But nothing had worked and now he comes to a stand still. Getting his PhD and working as a Vet Tech for as long as he could manage no one to wonder why he never seemed to get any older despite several birthdays passing. By the fifth year, Thatchery would move and find a new city to live in. Though with every city in his realm already having housed him... it was time to move realms completely. Now he finds himself in the middle of a war stricken realm by the name of Portus Cale where he refuses to let anything else happen to the residents.

Oh God, the woods ||

Emily Binx-->”Haast thou seen my sister Emily?”

He feels  incredibly guilty for her death. Throughout the years he has always sort of felt her with him. But that’s crazy talk.

He loathes their existence and will fight to his eventual death trying to bring them to theirs.

Lucifer-->Something wicked this way comes

Though they work together, he feels that there is something off with the other man.

Based on Victor Van Dort from The Corpse Bride

OPEN || TAKEN

I like your enthusiasm ||

A family of good money it wasn’t hard to see that he was wealthy. Women from all sorts of places flocked to prove themselves to the Van Dort boy. But he was uninterested. Victor would rather spend his time getting to know his significant other and playing piano. He wanted to find his true love and spend every available moment getting to know them. Doing things that they both liked rather than being forced into an unhappy marriage. There was one girl, however, that made his heart pound. She was sweet and beautiful and everything that Victor adored in a woman. They seemed to really connect and bond. They seemed so perfect for one another. However, his happily ever after was short lived as on the eve of their wedding...she ran away. Eloped and disappeared with another man. Leaving a heartbroken and depressed Victor to wonder what had went wrong.

As he got older his parents pressed that he needed to find a wife. They claimed that he was too picky and that he simply needed to settle as they had. The very thought of not even remotely liking his future wife made him sick to his stomach. But he begrudgingly agreed to his parents terms. A year or two later he was informed that they had found the perfect little lady. Her name was Victoria and she came from a once wealthy family herself. Though just how poor she was they were unaware. While he agreed to meet her, Victor still protested that he wanted to at the very least like his significant other. His parents shook their heads at him and reminded him that he had agreed to this before hand. With a sigh, he hung his head and introduced himself to her. She was a woman after his own heart and it didn’t take very long for him to grow fond of her.

But on the eve that they were to get married he ruined their vows. Their priest declared that until he mastered his vows that he would never be ready to marry. Distraught, Victor went into the woods and practiced and practiced and practiced. Finally, he got them down. Placing the ring on a nearby tree branch that stuck out. Only it wasn’t a tree branch...it was the finger of a corpse. Out from the earth sprouted an elegant looking young woman by the name of Emily. While he learned her devastating tale he was still terrified of her and what everyone would say, do and think of her. So, in order to save them both he told her he needed to go back up to the living world and talk to his parents. In reality, Victor was going to talk to Victoria. But when he arrived she was gone and there was rumor that she was to wed another man. Confused, he went searching for her which led him on a wild goose chase where he ended up in another city under the siege of war.

I find myself married to a corpse ||

Emily-->”Don’t you see? You’re the other woman.”

He knows that he has to do the right thing and eventually end his life to be with her. But this still terrifies him and he still has to find a way to inform Victoria.

Victoria Everglot-->”But then, on meeting you, I felt that I should be with you always.”

His would be fiance. He feels pulled and bound to her somehow and knows that he has to find a way to fix what he has done.

Sarah Sanderson-->Fix it

He is frightened of her but knows that there is something she can do to help him and his situation.

Realm: Other World

Occupation: Entrepreneur at Thimbles

Pronouns: he/him

Based on Jack Skellington from The Nightmare Before Christmas

OPEN || TAKEN

And to a guy in Kentucky I’m Mister Unlucky ||

As the only son of the founder of his city, he idolized his father. Spending countless hours laying awake with his dad trying to think of ways to spice things up in town. Especially for Halloween. That was their holiday and every year the whole town would celebrate and it was a giant party for everyone. But sometimes his father wondered if there was something more they could do. Jack, naturally, would try his best to help and try making different contraptions for the big bash. His father loved his inventions and often used them for the celebration. Unfortunately, his time with his father came to an end rather soon. His father passed suddenly and tragically when one of his own inventions exploded. Now poor Jack, at only sixteen, was alone.

It was up to him now to run the town and while his father had died he was granted his father’s ability; he could now turn skeletal on command. But there was someone who begged to differ. His name was Osten Bogs and his father was the mayor. The two boys grew up on the same street since they were infants and never once had gotten along. Osten would continuously try to find new ways of the Skellington’s out of town but it never did work. Jack was also the one person in their town that was not downright terrified of him. Always friendly to the other boy and offering to help him in anyway he could. Though all he would get in return was a jeer and a cruel laugh. Though there was one person that Jack could always count on; Zero. They had been there since before the town was founded and while they were dead they served as a good friend to him.

 As he grew older, Jack couldn’t ignore the feeling that there was something missing in their big Halloween bash. Or maybe in their town.It was then when he discovered this thing called snow. Being that in their town it’s autumn year round they never experienced this. Jack was fascinated and tried everything he could to make it snow. But to no avail. Nothing he did worked and eventually he decided to take his studies to another realm where it did snow and try to form some kind of plan to bring it back to his realm with him. Maybe then they could have the celebration that he had always imagined. 

No animal, no man can scream like I can ||

Sally Finkelstein-->”We’re simply meant to be.”

The two have lived side by side for years and only recently met. He feels like he can trust her and she brings out the best in him. Maybe there’s even something more between the two?

Zero-->”My, what a brilliant nose you have.”

He is his best friend. Always there when then other is in need most.

Cinderella-->”Somewhere deep in these bones an emptiness began to grow.”

Though the two hardly ever speak, it is clear that the girl needs someone, a friend, that she can rely on. He wants to show her that he can be that person if she only would let him.

Based on Thumbelina from Thumbelina

OPEN || TAKEN

Let me be your wings ||

Thumbelina was the product of magic itself. An old woman came upon a witch and expressed her desire for a child. The witch gave her barleycorn and told her to plant it. After planting it that night a baby was born in the old woman’s garden. As the baby grew into a small child it became apparent that she had a green thumb or at least possessed garden magic. Thumbelina helped her new mother’s garden grow and flourish. She was beloved by all who crossed paths with her as she was the sweetest young girl. But eventually her comfortable life came to an end as she was stolen in her sleep at the age of sixteen. It was a woman who had her sights set on her from the moment she was born and waited until she was old enough to marry her son, Grundel.

Luckily, she was able to escape and try to return home with help of neighboring children. But on her way back home Thumbelina got lost and wandered. Months passed and she was soon taken in by a man by the name of Berkeley Beetle. He told her that he was a connoisseur of rare nectar's, designer of rare threads and a judge of beautiful women. He created and designed a special dress for Thumbelina to wear to an event with his friends. Though they were harsh and cruel to her and ridiculed her. Berkeley sided with his friends and tossed her outside. Making her subject to the harsh conditions of the weather. Soon after she was taken in by woman who urged her to marry her brother. But the woman’s brother was blind and agoraphobic, refusing to leave his house.

Thumbelina refused. Telling the woman how she could never marry a man who wouldn’t see the sun. A couple years went by and eventually she saved up enough money to leave the woman’s care. Sneaking away in the middle of the night with a boy around her age by the name of Jacquimo. Together they build a living just enough for the two of them. That is until she met him. Thumbelina was homesick and was trying to map out a way to return home or at least see her mother again. It was in a field of flowers where she met Cornelius. He swept her off her feet and they planned to meet every night after that. They danced and sang together until Thumbelna eventually learned that he was a fae.

His wings took them high into the sky and he promised to never let her fall. But his parents were not very fond of the idea of their son being with a seemingly human girl. So it was with a heavy heart that Thumbelina let her prince go. He vowed that one day they would meet again and with that he and his family vanished from their realm. Eventually, she did find her way home with Jacquimo in hand. She told her mother about her adventures and more importantly about Cornelius. Her mother was happy to have her baby home but urged her to return on her adventures and try to find her faerie prince. Which brings her to Portus Cale where she hopes to find him again. But for now she helps the parks flourish and bloom with her magic.

Tell me about the faerie court ||

Hero-->”Oh! Oh no, Hero. See? He’s nice.”

She was raised around him. An older man who served as a sort of older brother or father figure for her growing up. While he is very, very protective of her she knows that he means well.

Jacquimo-->”This is ze Vale of ze Faeries!”

Since they built sort of a life together, she is really, very fond of him. He is also very protective of her. What with knowing her history and her past. Ever since he helped her escape he has never really left her side. He also doesn’t believe that Cornelius is what’s best for her.

Kairi-->Sisterhood of the Travelers

Since starting to work with the other girl the two are almost always seen together. They’re both in search of a boy they met long ago. Which is why they help each other in all ways they can.

Based on Sibella from Scooby-Doo and the Ghoul School

OPEN || TAKEN

Fang-tastic to meet you ||

tw: murder

As the youngest of six sisters, one would think that she would be babied. But not in this family. Each and every girl was given the same amount of affection and attention as the others. Everything was fair and no one ever felt left out. But this family also had a dark secret. Sibella’s mother suffered from a rare condition that required her to drink blood in order to sustain her life. This was passed to each and every one of her daughters. Said to be a direct descendant of Countess Elizabeth Bathory, her mother hated her condition and often would starve herself. Though eventually, her mother resisted her blood lust until her untimely death and left her father to care for the six girls. Even then, Sibella never knew what being left out felt like. She was never once neglected.

Her father was a political man and his image was very important. And as everyone knows--secrets, secrets are no fun unless they’re shared with everyone. That being said, somehow her mother’s secret was unleashed and with that came an angry public. Calling her and her sisters monsters and one night, while Sibella and her father were at her ballet recital, they broke in and slaughtered her five sisters. Now terrified for his youngest (and now only) daughter’s safety her father made the heartbreaking decision of sending his ten year old away. Sibella was highly paranoid of everyone she met after her sister’s murder. Moving away from her father was something she didn’t know how to cope with. Especially not with attending a new school meant for...well, people like her.

Miss Grimwood was as welcoming to her as she was everyone who entered her finishing school. As it turned out, her daughter was also taken from her because of the same condition Sibella suffered from. After a while it became like a second home to her. She bonded well with the other girls and formed a stronger one with the newest addition, Winnie. However, despite her untrusting nature she was the most susceptible one to fall under Revolta’s spell. She was also the one who was prone to question whether it really happened when the spell was broken. However, this made her even more weary of others. Upon graduation from Miss Grimwood’s, Sibella and Winnie decided to uproot and leave that realm. A feeble attempt to start anew as they continued their education. But with this new place under siege of war who knows what will happen next.

They are a little strange, Daddy, but they are fangtastic teachers ||

Winnie Wolfe-->Stand by me

It was an instant bond that brought the two together. She feels rather protective of the younger girl. Never really traveling far from her. It seems as thought she adopted the other girls as a substitute for the ones she lost. But there’s no bond stronger that the one she has with Winnie.

Baxter Ford-->Love at first sight

Despite the obvious war between the school that they attended, he always made a point to be kind to Sibella. Over the years it became a little more than obvious that the boy had eyes for her. Going above and beyond to try and make sure she was safe and stable. However, she sees him only as an acquaintance and feels sorry that she doesn’t have the same feelings that he does.

Oh, how silly of me! I’m Snow White. ||

Born in a wealth Vietnamese family, little Tuyat was the joy and life of her parents. They had an old hotel chain throughout Asia, having plans to expand the company and reach Europe as well. When her mother died, her father thought that Tuyat needed a motherly figure while growing up, so he married a woman named Ramilda, a German lady that made all men turn their heads to look at her. At the beginning the stepmother tried to conceal her true nature by being loving and caring towards her step daughter, but when her father died on a terrible accident, Ramilda begun to show her true intentions. Tuyat was forced to do the house job, and instead of learning how to manage her family’s business the little girl was only allowed to study normal subjects, the ones she had on school.

Poor Tuyat was forced to do all her house work, and sometimes she wouldn’t even have time for studying. Nonetheless she was still the face of her father’s company, so whenever Ramilda had a big reunion she had to be there. Because of it, Tuyat went with her to Germany, there she met a boy named Florian. He was everything Tuyat had dreamed of about, but she couldn’t pursue it, she had bigger problems rather than just fall for a boy. Her stepmother tried to poison her, first with  comb, then with a dress, but she finally succeed it with an apple pie. Ever since, Tuyat go to a variety of doctors and no one can discover what she did to poison her, they only agree that maybe it had something to do with the zany experiments. Her kidney started to fail along with some other organs. 

Tuyat ran away from her stepmother, trying to save her life. She was adopted by a German family, with seven sons. They changed her name to Svelda Schenee. Now Svelda and her brothers changed to Portus Cale, she’s studying to be a doctor and finally be able to discover what’s wrong with her and how to save herself. She also wants to get back her father’s  hotel chain once again, but for now, her main concern is not dying from her organs.

A friend is someone who knows all about you and still loves you ||

Dainty and delicate are some words used to describe the little girl. Her parents were older and hippies that encouraged their daughter to be anything she wanted to be. Raised to be polite and above all else to be true to herself. Minnie was her parents only child and as such got everything she ever asked for. But this never made her spoiled or entitled. Minnie was a dream come true and her parents were more supportive of her and her dreams than they were of each other. As she grew older, she was loved far and wide by all that encountered her. She was sweet as pie and had an infectious smile and laugh. No one could resist the girl’s charm. Not that she ever tried to be anything other than herself. As she grew older, Minnie was as beautiful as she was sweet. Having suitor after suitor try to win her over. But she never cared much for all the love letters and declarations of love. She wanted to live her life.

Eventually, she heard in school that there was other realms outside of their own and Minnie wanted to explore them. But the farthest she ever got was to another city by the name of Portus Cale. Too scared to really get out there despite the encouragement by her parents. Minnie was in awe at the splendor nonetheless and eventually made friends with a girl named Daisy. The two came from drastically different backgrounds. But they were as close as sisters. Daisy was haughty and Minnie tried her best to get her friend to be a little nicer to others. Then came the day that she was introduced to all of Daisy’s friends. As always, she was loved by each and every one. But the one that Minnie was most fond of was Mickey. The two hit it off almost immediately and they started spending every available moment together.

However, despite being hippies, her parents were not a fan of Mickey. He was different from the rest and it didn’t take long for Minnie to learn why. One night he told her (or showed her) that he harbored magic. While she was memorized by his ability, her parents were anti-magic folk and forbid her from ever seeing him again. However, that never stopped her from sneaking out to see him. One night he came to her bedroom window and told her about a man named Yen Sid. He could help Mickey harness his magic and learn how to use it properly! Mickey told her that he was leaving this realm in search of him. But eventually he ended up right back in Portus Cale and locked the city down. Now there was no chance that Minnie could see other realms.

It is better to be hated for what you are, than loved for what you are not ||

Michael Mouse-->”We accept the love we think we deserve.”

She knows that he’s a good guy and he means well. However, with this newfound magic within him, she can’t help but be a little frightened.

Daisy Duckington-->Sisters by choice

The other girl is her comfort blanket. There isn’t anything that she won’t do for the other girl.

Kairi-->”Love all, trust a few and do wrong to no one.”

She feels so sorry for the girl. She knows that something isn’t right and wants so deeply to help her. She just doesn’t know how.

OPEN || TAKEN

I’m the lost princess, aren’t I ||

As a rainbow baby, it was only fitting that her people rejoiced upon her birth. Her parents had been trying for a baby for years. But once they conceived it would never last. Her mother’s health was never stable enough to withstand a pregnancy and with that she would lose the baby fairly early on. Which was why when Rapunzel was conceived they tried not to get their hopes up. Once they surpassed the first trimester, things seemed to be looking better for them and they soon welcomed a healthy baby girl into the world. Though their happiness was short lived. The secret to her mother’s health was granted by a magic herb that only grew in the garden of a witch. But when her father had asked for it to help them, they were rejected and turned away.

The night of Rapunzel’s birth the witch realized what had happened and in turn sneaked into their home and stole the baby girl. An eye for an eye. She raised the baby as her own, locked away in a tower so no one could find them. Though it didn’t take long for the witch to find that her “daughter” had magical hair that glowed and healed upon singing a special song. The witch, or Gothel as was her name, was growing old and frail and thus used the child’s powers to heal her and help her remain young and beautiful. Each day, she would leave Rapunzel alone in the tower for hours as she went to retrieve things that they should need. With all the time by herself, Rapunzel gathered hobbies and talents such as painting. Coating the walls of her tower.

On her birthday each year, the city would release thousands of lanterns in her honor. Hoping that they might lead the precious girl back home. When she turned eighteen she begged her Gothel to let her go see them in person. But she was turned away and mocked. Which was why when a young man found her once Gothel was away from the tower, Rapunzel demanded that he take her to see them and in return she would help him gain the wealth he dreamed of. Of course, it was only a matter of time until Gothel found that her ticket to remaining young was gone. She found that the boy’s name was Flynn (or Eugene to her) and together they worked to avoid returning to the tower once they caught word that they were being saught after. Bringing them both to Portus Cale in hopes that maybe they could remain low key enough to evade being caught.

Find your humanity ||

Mother Gothel-->”I love you too, flower.”

The woman who she still believes to be her mother. But also the woman that is hunting her to bring her back to the tower. She still sometimes gets pings of guilt that tell her to go back.

Eugene Fitzherbert aka Flynn Rider-->”At last I see the light!”

They don’t seem to have much in common and in fact they often times fight and argue about trivial things. But since they live together that’s to be expected, right? Overall, they take care of each other at all costs.

Pascal-->”He doesn’t seem so bad.”

Her long standing best friend that followed to make sure she was safe. When Gothel was away for long periods of time often times he would come stay with her for some company. Living in the next town over he was never far away.
