Chapter 9: Chapter 8: Scratching
Summary:
TW self harm
Yuline is a little to anxious
Previous chapter Next Chapter
They were kicked out of Heartslaybul.
“That asshole took my phone!” Yuline growled. “First, he takes my picture without my permission, then he takes my phone!”
“Hey, at least you’re getting access to this world’s— I mean, the rest of Twisted Wonderlands’ internet!” Deuce corrected, realising Arleigh was still there.
“I guess…” Yu mumbled. “It would be useful.”
After a moment of silence, Arleigh finally broke it. “Did you r-really grow up w-without magic?” he asked, nervously twisting and fidgeting with the sleeve of his uniform. “How did t-they explain you being a demon-beastman hybrid?”
“The Headmage’s theory is that there’s a magic seal over where I’m from, preventing anything magical looking from happening, so I just looked like an ordinary human,” Yuline explained. She was anxious, although she wasn’t sure if that was showing on her face or not, since no one else seemed to notice.
“How w-weird,” Arleigh commented. “But if your parents are human, how are you not?”
Yuline shrugged. “The headmage gave some bullshit answer to that, and I’m not sure if he’s actually being for real or not.” Her tail continued to sway anxiously.
“T-that explains w-why you don’t know how t-to control your t-tail.” Arleigh muttered, looking down at the ground guiltily.
“Is that a bad thing?” asked Yu, now acutely aware of her tail swaying in the air and trying to get it to stop.
“Not necessarily, just most beastmen don’t w-want t-to show w-weakness, and I know it’s the same w-with demons,” explained Arleigh as they all finally walked into the school. They were finding out their homerooms today at noon, which was why they had time to paint the roses.
“I see.” Yu’s face heated up in embarrassment, knowing she had probably stood out way more than she wanted to.
“Hey Yu, what class are you and Grim in?” Ace asked, joining their conversation.
“Oh, 1-A,” Yuline replied. She paused, trying to figure out if she should also ask them or not.
That answer was decided for her when Ace said, “Sick! You’re with me and Deuce!”
Yuline smiled; at least she would have some people she knew other than Grim.
“What about you, Arleigh?” Deuce asked, finishing his conversation with Grim.
“1-C…” He mumbled, wringing his fingers.
“I’m sure you’ll make some friends,” Yuline reassured him, trying to make him a little less anxious.
Arleigh laughed. “I didn’t come here to make friends.”
“Okay, but I’m sure you will make friends.” Yuline insisted.
Arleigh sighed. “I think he means he doesn’t want to make friends.” Deuce told her.
“Oh!”
While it did confuse Yuline as to why he didn’t want to make friends, she wasn’t one to question it. “If you ever change your mind, I’ll be happy to be your friend!”
Grim raced ahead of them.
“Grim, what are you doing?” Yuline asked, picking her pace up a little, much to the chagrin of her joints; her back was already killing her, but she didn’t want to make a fuss.
Arleigh tilted his head slightly but didn’t say anything as they continued walking, trying to catch up with Grim.
“C’mon! Dont’cha want to see who our teacher is?” Grim asked, stopping briefly.
Yuline began scratching at her arms. She was actually dreading who their teacher was; all of them seemed… scary.
When they got to class 1-A, she immediately paled walking in seeing Professor Crewel. He probably freaked her out the most.
She continued scratching at her skin.
“You good?” Ace asked, “You’re bleeding.”
“I am?” Yuline asked, and sure enough, her claws had torn the skin.
Crewel saw this, sighed, and came over, “Classes haven’t even started, how have you already injured yourself?”
Yu looked down, avoiding eye contact as she continued to scratch at her now bleeding skin.
“Stop that!” Crewel snapped, which caused Yuline to flinch. She wasn’t sure why, but she suddenly became very scared, as something bad could happen at any second. This fear caused her body to still.
“Honestly, you should break that habit,” Prosser Crewel scolded. “Head down to the nurse's office, and don’t get blood on your uniform!”
So, Yuline couldn’t sit down and instead had to go to the nurse's office, again.
“Back so soon?” Dr. X asked teasingly, “What happened now?”
Yuline started scratching again.
“Ah, I see the problem,” Dr. X said, looking at her arm. “Go sit over there,”
Yuline finally got to sit and let out a sigh of relief.
“Dr. Nurse Shark!” A voice called out, “‘Zul had a fall!”
The owner of the voice was a tall young man, a student based on his uniform. He had blue and black hair and one seemingly glowing yellow eye. He seemed agitated.
“Floyd, calm down,” Dr. X said, “I’ll go out and get him.” She turned to Yuline, “You’ll be okay while I get another student?” Yuline nodded, and with that, Dr. X left
The student, Floyd, decided to wait for his friend in the infirmary. Yuline wasn’t sure what she was supposed to do; did she make conversation or remain quiet as Floyd stared at her?
She continued scratching at her already bloody arm.
Floyd flashed his shark-like teeth, seemingly taking some enjoyment in her discomfort.
Soon, Dr. X was back with two other boys: one who looked nearly identical to Floyd, who was helping Dr. X carry in a person who Yu figured was ‘Zul’.
“Yuline, could you move?” Dr. X asked.
Yuline nodded, stood up, and moved out of the way. The boy groaned.
One of the other students, whom Yuline assumed was a sibling of Floyd’s, frowned at her.
She started scratching harder, drawing more blood.
She looked away from everyone and started to box breath, something she had been taught by her old school counselor to calm herself down.
“In four seconds… Out four seconds… repeat,” she thought to herself. Hoping the two siblings would stop staring at her.
“Floyd, Jade, you’re free to go.” Dr. X told them, but they looked hesitant to leave, still watching Yuline.
Yu shivered; the two of them were uncanny, like something trying to be human but not.
The other student looked like he had dislocated his leg, which had to hurt. She was tempted to ask how he did it, but figured that would be considered rude, so she said nothing.
“Off you go now!” Dr. X said, trying to get the two to leave.
“Who’s that?” Jade asked with a polite smile.
“That’s Yuline, now shoo.” Dr. X continued, basically shoving them out of the inferimery.
“Yuline…” the boy, with a dislocated leg, mumbled, “You’re the new housewarden of Ramshackle, correct?”
Housewarden, that was the title she was given; it meant that she was the head of Ramshale dorm, even though she only had one student, so it seemed like a pointless title to give her.
“News sure does spread fast…” Yuline muttered.
He ignored her obvious discomfort and continued, “I am Azul Ashgrotto, Housewarden of Octinveille,” he introduced himself.
Yuline nodded and continued scratching. The wound was probably deep now, but Yu didn’t really care; she was too anxious to stop.
“My, you should stop doing that, lest you ruin your clothes,” Azul commented, “Oh, but if you ever need new ones, please stop by my office in Monstro Lounge.”
Yuline thought the last comment was weird, but good intentioned, at least, she thought it was. “Thanks… I think?”
Azul’s smirk fell for a second, but only a second.
Yuline quickly apologized, “Sorry if that sounded rude.”
Azul smiled, “Ah, no worries, the headmage informed us of your limitations.”
Yuline couldn’t help but roll her eyes at the way he said “limitations”.
“I didn’t mean any offence,” Azul said quickly, realising how that might have sounded.
“I’m sure you didn’t,” Yuline said politely. People had made similar well-meaning comments like that to her, but it always rubbed her the wrong way.
“Azul, stop trying to sway Yuline into one of your scams.” Dr. X scolded. “Now, let's get your knee back into place.”
“I assure you all my deals are fully— Ow!” Azul shouted as Dr. X realigned his knee.
“And now to you, Yuline, what brings you here?” Dr. X asked, scanning her up and down before finally settling on her arm, which at that point had become a bloody mess. She frowned, “Why are you doing that to your arm?”
“It calms me down,” Yu squeaked. She knew that it probably wasn’t the best solution, but she needed some way to calm herself down. She didn’t feel like having a panic attack.
Dr. X frowned, “We can’t have you doing that.”
“I know because it will ruin—” Yu started, but was quickly interrupted.
“No, although that is a bonus,” Dr. X sighed, “The main reason is you would be harming yourself.”
“Oh,” was all Yuline had to say. No one had ever really commented on her scratching before, not that it ever drew blood before.
Dr. X wrapped bandages tightly around her arm, making sure she couldn’t accidentally scratch through them, and sent her back to class.

Chapter 8: Chapter 7: One Week Later
Summary:
One Week later
Previous chapter Next Chapter
The rest of the week went relatively fine for Yuline. Crazy dreams aside, she was getting used to the whole beastman demon thing and Ramshackle as a whole. The only good part was that Disney Plus somehow worked! Nothing else did, but she would take what she could get.
She decided to rewatch the Disney classics. All of them, even more obscure ones like the Black Cauldron.
She was rewatching Beauty and the Beast when she heard a knock on the door.
“Whoever it is is lucky I’m doing a Disney marathon before school officially starts,” Yu muttered, careful not to wake Grim, who had fallen asleep beside her on the couch.
“Ace?!” Yu shouted in surprise as she opened the door. Ace in front of her with a familiar collar. It was the one she had put on by, another red-haired boy, Riddle, she remembered.
“Damn, you’re still up?” Ace asked. Over the week, he had learned that Yuline had to go to bed around seven, so her being up at ten was—even for the short time Ace had known her— unusual.
“Yeah, decided on a Disney movie marathon.” Yuline yawned, stretching.
“Oh? Can I watch?” Ace asked.
She considered it for a second. “If you tell me why you’re here at ten at night.”
Ace started fidgeting. “So about that…”
“What did you do?” Yuline sighed, letting him into Ramshackle.
“Nothing!” Ace insisted, stepping inside. “My housewarden is just crazy!”
“Uh-huh,” Yuline closed the door behind him, sitting back down on the couch.
Grim groaned, and Yuline was scared he was going to wake up, but thankfully, he didn’t.
“I just ate a stupid tart!” Ace told her. “I don’t think that means I should get my magic stripped away and kicked out of the dorm!”
Yuline’s eyes widened. “For… a tart?” That did sound extreme, but maybe that was just what happened in Twisted Wonderland.
“I know, right!” Ace said, exasperated. “So I need a place to crash until I’m allowed to get back in the dorm.”
“I mean, sure, if you like sleeping in a dusty bed.”
“Yeah, yeah, that’s fine,” Ace said, sitting down beside her. “So, what movie are you watching?”
“Beauty and the Beast, I just finished the prologue, so it’s not too far for me to rewind it if you want to watch.”
“Cool, I'll watch,”
…
“This is a kids' movie?!” Ace asked, shocked, as the movie ended.
“Yeah,” Yu said, confused. “Why wouldn’t it be?”
“They killed someone on screen!” Ace was horrified. He understood that Gaston was a villain, but that was brutal.
“Oh, it didn’t actually show any blood; he just was thrown off the tower,” Yu smiled,completely oblivious to Ace’s horror.
“Yu, you should be horrified,” Ace told her bluntly, "Remember, these are real people here.”
“I get that…” Yuline mumbled, “But how is it any different from a historical drama? Those have deaths all the time of real people, right?”
Ace looked at her, dumbfounded.“I’m gonna go to bed.”
“Okay…” Yu trailed off before shouting up at him: “You’re apologizing tomorrow! Oh, and beware of the ghosts.”
She faintly heard Ace mutter about stupid apologies before shouting, “Ghosts!?”
…
“Hurry up and paint those roses red! Slather them quickly, aforesaid!” A card soldier yelled hurriedly.
“Alice in… Wonderland?” Yu wondered aloud, looking around. It was most definitely the scene where Alice was going to paint the roses, only she felt like she was there, watching her as she did.
“Hurry, hurry! There are still roses left to paint!” The Ace of Clubs shouted in fear.
“Why are you painting these white roses red?” Alice said, walking up to them. She looked so young. Although that did make sense, as Alice was only eight in the book.
All the cards looked at her in alarm. “Huh!?”
“Why, you ask? It's quite simple. We planted the wrong color, you see.” The Two of Clubs explained to the young girl.
“The Queen likes her roses red. If they're white, we'll lose our heads!” The Ace shouted.
“Goodness!” Alice said in alarm. She honestly should’ve been more alarmed but perhaps with all the nonsense she had experienced, she was too tired to.
“And so, we're painting the roses red.” The Two of Clubs said, and continued to paint the roses as the song by the same name began to play.
Yuline woke up. “I’m dreaming of Disney,” she muttered to herself. Paint the Roses Red was going to be stuck in her head for the rest of the day, it would seem.
Today was the last day before school officially started; apparently, the day she met Ace was just an introduction to all the teachers before actual classes started a week later, which luckily gave Yu enough time to heal.
Her left hand was unfortunately scarred, and her shoulder was now sporting a new scar too. She hoped the rest of the school year wouldn’t be as traumatic as her first two days.
“What song are you humming?” Ace asked as they began walking towards the mirror chamber.
“A song from Alice in Wonderland,” she told him. “I had a really weird dream about it last night.”
As they continued to walk, they came across Deuce and another student.
“T-that idiot," the rabbit beastman said, “W-what w-was he t-thinking!”
“Look, he didn’t know, I know he’s an idiot—”
“More t-than an idiot, he ate t-the housewardens t-tart!” the beastman protested. “He’s l-lucky t-the housewarden only collared him!”
“He kicked me out as well!” Ace shouted at the pair.
“Ace! There you are!” Deuce said, turning around. “Ah, and hello Yuline!”
The rabbit beastman's eyes widened, “Oh my ears and w-whiskers…”
“Hey Deuce, good morning!” Yuline replied, looking over anxiously at the white-haired boy.
“W-what is he doing here?!” said the unknown student.
“He?” Ace asked, looking between Yuline and the rabbit beastman.
Yuline lit up slightly at someone calling her by masculine pronouns, but then sat there confused. She hadn’t told anyone she was genderfluid, nor had she ever met this beastman. The thought made her anxious, so she started flapping her hands.
“Arleigh, Yuline’s a girl,” Deuce informed him.
“Yeah! Don’t disrespect my hench demon!” Grim scolded.
Arleigh squeaked, “R-right!” before dipping his head slightly.
Deuce turned to Ace. “What were you thinking?!”
“I was hungry!” Ace explained.
“Do you know how mad Riddle was?!” Deuce asked him. “He was going on about how you almost ruined the unbirthday party!”
“An… unbirthday party?” Yu asked. “Like the one the Mad Hatter threw?”
“Mad Hatter?” Arleigh inquired.
Yuline blushed, shaking her head. “Never mind. So the tarts were for an unbirthday party?”
“Yes!” Arleigh said, “It's tradition!”
Yuline nodded, turning to Ace. “You fucked up.”
“Hey! I don’t need to hear that from you!” Ace said, looking at his two housemates. “He’s not still mad, is he?”
“No, he only collared 3 of our dormmates this morning for oversleeping,” Deuce told them.
“I can’t tell if that’s sarcasm or not,” Yu replied.
“Of course it’s sarcasm! Are you a l-langsam or something?” Arleigh snapped as he thumped his foot in agitation.
“Don’t insult my hench-demon like that!” Grim shouted.
Yuline was taken aback, “If by 'langsam' you mean autistic, then yeah…” she muttered.
Arleigh paled. “Sorry.”
“Sorry’s not gonna cut it!” Grim told him.
“Lay off it,” Yu sighed. “You called me the same thing when we first met, remember?”
Grim deflated. “Oh yeah.”
There was an awkward silence before they continued walking.
“Are you heading back to the dorm, Ace?” Deuce asked.
“Yu is making me apologize," Ace grumbled.
“As she should!” Arleigh huffed.
They entered the mirror room. “So we just step into the mirror like we did with the Magic Mirror?” Yu asked
Deuce nodded. “Yeah.”
The five of them stepped into the portal, and when they came out on the other side, Yu began flapping her hands. “It’s just like Alice in Wonderland!” she squealed.
“Whoa, this place is crazy!” Grim said, looking around at all the strange architecture.
“Yeah, it’s pretty weird,” Deuce admitted while Ace grumbled about having to apologize.
“Don’t disrespect t-the Queen of Hearts! T-this architecture w-was popular at t-the t-time!” Arleigh explained.
“It’s so wonderful!” Yuline exclaimed. “Oh, it feels like I’m stepping into a Disney movie!” She smiled, spinning around to take in the scenery and forgetting about everyone around her.
Deuce elbowed a laughing Ace, while Arleigh stood confused.
Yuline blushed. “Sorry.” She looked around and spotted a ginger man in the distance. “Do you think he’d know where Riddle is?” she asked, gesturing to him.
“That’s Cater, right?” Deuce confirmed. “He and Riddle are fairly close?”
Arleigh nodded. “R-riddle said he’s one of his best friends.”
Ace turned towards Arleigh. “You and Riddle are friends?”
“Our parents are friends.” Arleigh corrected, adjusting his pocket-watch-shaped monocle (which Yuline thought was cool).
“C’mon Yu, let’s go ask him,” Ace said, dragging her towards Cater, oblivious to how anxious Yuline looked.
“Wait, what is he doing?” Ace wondered aloud.
“I’m painting the roses red, of course!” Cater answered, causing them to jump.
“Wait, why!?” Deuce asked, alarmed, “The roses are perfectly good white.”
“Oh,” Yu’s eyebrows shot up. She had a feeling she knew where this was going. “Is it because the queen likes the roses red?”
“What? No!” Cater said, “It’s just a tradition! You think the Queen of Hearts was that crazy— wait, hold the phone! You guys are the freshies that broke the, like, million-thuamark chandelier and almost got expelled!”
Yu blushed while Deuce and Ace looked away.
“Hey! I had no part in it!” Arleigh protested, but Cater didn’t seem to care.
“Oh, and you must be Ace,” Cater laughed, turning to him. “You ate the housewardens’ tart last night!”
Yuline felt uncomfortable; she really wasn’t sure how to feel about this interaction.
“You guys are the hot topic of school right now! I got to get in on this fleeting fame…” He said. “Mind if I get a selfie real quick?”
He snapped the photo before Yuline could protest.
“Now what are your names so I can tag you on Magicam?” Cater asked, pointing towards Deuce, Arleigh, and Yuline.
“Err… Deuce Spade?”
“Arleigh W-wit,” Alreigh said. “And I didn’t give you permission to take my picture!”
“I don’t have, umm, Magicam,” Yuline told him.
“What?!” Cater was shocked. “We have to fix that.”
“Are you even listening to me!?” Arleigh shouted.
Cater grabbed her phone. “This is the strangest phone I’ve ever seen,”
“Hey, give that back!” Yu yelled.
“Okay, jeez.” Cater sighed. “I was going to help you get access to the internet since it looks like your phone doesn’t have any features of a normal phone, aside from a camera, and the words are just gibberish!”
“Wait, what?”
“But now I’m not feeling so generous. Although… I could be persuaded if you helped me paint these roses.” Cater grinned.
“But I can’t even use magic without passing out!” Yu told him that she didn’t see any paint buckets around.
“That’s okay! You can do it by hand!” Cater reassured her as he summoned two paint buckets and brushes. “And besides, you have four wonderful friends who can help you! Isn’t that right, freshies?”
“I am not her friend,” Arleigh muttered, but still took out his magic pen.
“What are you doing?” Ace asked. “Are you seriously going to help him!?”
“Don’t you know?” Cater said, “It’ll be off with our heads if we don’t!”
Fear set over Deuce and Aces’ faces as they got their own pens. This was before Ace remembered that he couldn’t use magic at the moment and begrudgingly grabbed a brush.
“I won’t do it!” Grim refused.
“C’mon, dude!” Ace shouted, annoyed. “We’re all doing it!”
“You’ll get to show everyone how great you are,” Yu told him, which made Grim light up.
Cater then showed them all the spell to use as Yuline began to hum Paint The Roses Red under her breath.
“What’cha humming there, freshie?” Cater asked.
Yu looked down at the ground, her face heating up, “Oh, it’s just a song from a movie.”
“Is it the same one from before?” Ace asked.
“Yeah, Paint The Roses Red.”
“Ironic,” Arleigh muttered, “Is it from, w-what w-was it, a 'Didney' movie?”
“Disney,” Yuline corrected. “Yes, it’s from one of the classics.”
“Oh? I’ve never heard of Disney before,” Cater commented as he continued to paint the roses, “Must not be all that famous.”
Yu flicked her brush as she herself painted, “They are very popular back home, but…” Sadness flickered across her face.
“Hey, if that movie is anything like Beauty and the Beast, then I’d rather not watch it,” Ace said. “Seriously, that was dark for a kids' movie.” He turned to Cater, “And when I say dark, I mean the on-screen death kind of dark.”
“I guess it’s dark…” Yuline mumbled.
“You okay, Yu?” Deuce asked, turning away from the group as Ace explained the plot of Beauty and the Beast to Cater and Arleigh.
“No way! She grew up without magic!?” She heard Cater exclaim. “That’s it!” He grabbed her shoulder, which made her feel even more uncomfortable,“I’m totes getting you Magicam.”
“Hey, what about us? Shouldn’t we get some sort of reward as well?!” Ace complained.
“Your reward is I don’t tell Riddle you showed up without an apology tart!” Cater chirped back.
“Wait, what?”

In my Yuline in wonderland somethings that we can eat or have the twst cast can't (barring a few expectations)
Two of these things are caffeine and chocolate. Caffeine being considered a hard drug and chocolate just being plain lethal
Yuline despite being changed into a demon-beastman hybrid can still process food the same way as before. Yuline also really likes mocha. cue disaster as everyone thinks Yuline is a drug addict/going to die
when Yuline gets together with her partners post book 3 and sees there true forms she is so supportive, like she sees Azul in his mer form and is like "You're so pretty and cool omg!" she would be kicking her feet they are all very flustered by the praise
