Hello! a Twisted Wonderland question and thought food if you’re comfortable with this. I read some about your thoughts and stories about Diabolik Lovers, But I had this imagine that what if Yui Komori is in Twisted Wonderland (bonus: what if Yui used to befriends with the Yuus back before the Twisted Wonderland)?
(cracks knuckles) MY TIME HAS COME
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS IDEA FOR MANY REASONS: 1- Yui is saved from the Sakaboludos, 2- she ends up in a world where she's treated like the hero she is, and 3- most importantly, CAN YOU IMAGINE WHAT YUI WOULD BE LIKE WITH ANY OF THE TWST GUYS?!
I imagine if Yui were to end up in Twst, it would be during the events of Haunted Dark Bridal or Dark Fate (the games where, personally, I think Yui suffers the most physically, emotionally, and psychologically, whether from the Diaboys, Richter, Cordelia, or any of these otherworldly creatures). Maybe Yui was trying to escape from the mansion or from one of the vampires when the black carriage ran her over and she ended up at the admission ceremony (poor Yui probably thought Kanato would have put her in a coffin).
Yui definitely finds Grim more adorable than scared and tries to hug him despite the imminent danger. Grim still refuses to be called "cute" or adorable by her, but he doesn't object to physical affection whenever Yui picks him up to hug or carry him around NRC. He also acts as her literal guard dog, preventing students with malicious intent from approaching Yui or trying to hurt her. He claims it's because of the tuna she gives him, but everyone knows it's a lie.
Yui is VERY naive, but that doesn't mean she can't see through the fact that Crowley isn't looking for a way for her to return home, so, out of habit, she ends up resigning herself to this new life. Hey, at least she's not being abused now, after all.
The idea of Yui facing the Overblots is both terrifying and very interesting. We know Yui is much stronger (both physically and mentally) than she looks, and, above all, she's a good person. She would see the injustices committed by several of the Overblot victims and WANT to stop them; it's part of her nature. Will she come away with a few scratches? Yes, but satisfied and having earned respect and a couple of hearts? Also yes!
Riddle is one of the first to notice Yui's accommodating nature (and, to a lesser extent, her fear of rejection/anger if she decides to be more assertive), so it's especially fitting that Yui stops by Heartslabyul when Crowley is killing her with extra work. He's not above scolding the headmaster for giving his assignments to a young girl he SHOULD be looking after (especially when said young girl is so polite and sweet).
Riddle LOVES it when Yui tries to discipline Ace and Deuce, even if it's something of a losing battle. He's very happy to know there's someone who enjoys order and thanks Yui for her help in trying to keep the two of them under control (he KNOWS that if the three of them get into trouble, it's Deuce's fault, and Yui is spared the scolding. Always). Yui has often tried to help with unbirthday party preparations, whether it's helping with the food (this girl knows how to cook almost as well as Trey) or taking care of the Hedgehogs.
Riddle and Yui as a couple would be so funny and sweet at the same time. Riddle makes it a personal goal to be intimidating for himself and Yui (they're both short, but Riddle is barely taller than Yui, which is another aspect Riddle loves). They both LOVE unbirthday parties and making desserts together (Yui stops Riddle from putting sauces that shouldn't be on a cake). Even if Riddle is awkard with comfort, he is definitely enraged to learn what Yui went through in his world, he assures her that she doesn't have to be afraid now that she is in NRC, and that if anyone tries to harm her, he will cut their heads off himself.
Leona tries to ignore Yui at first, probably because he's not completely convinced by her "goody-two-shoes" attitude, of course, until what happened in his Overblot, and he's starting to see her differently, not just as a helpless girl, but as someone quite clever, not as someone passive, but with quite a bit of character. Someone he can respect.
Yui is probably the one who generates most of the interactions between her and Leona, whether it's helping Ruggie with his errands, running into him at the botanical garden, and trying to get him to go to class. She's stubborn, Leona can recognize that too, as well as the fact that she's not easily intimidated. No matter how many times he tells her to leave him alone or even bares the fangs at her, she looks at him with a bored expression and continues on with her business. Leona finds her fun, interesting. Besides, Leona would be lying if he said Yui's attention doesn't feel special, nice.
As a couple, it would be quite interesting to see, since they're practically polar opposites. Yui is a super sweet and kind girl, Leona is... Leona, it's a mystery to many how these two ended up together in the first place, but honestly, there's no science to it. Leona makes Yui feel capable again, he lets her know in his own way that she matters (to him specially), that she feels safe with him (he definitely suggests, with a very serious and angry face, putting the Sakamakis in cages if they ever cross paths with them. Yui can't tell if she's being serious or joking).
Let's be frank, even before the events of Book 3, Azul probably tried to scam Yui in some way if it weren't for Grim/Adeuce telling her not to accept things from strangers at school. Though honestly after that, I can see Azul being genuinely interested in Yui singing at the Monstre Louge in exchange for some favor she wants (we know from her official song that this girl can sing VERY WELL).
Another one who's taken aback by Yui's genuine kindness thinks there must be a catch, and genuinely ponders for hours when he realizes that no, Yui doesn't want to abuse him in any way, she just wants to be his friend. Yui ultimately generates a strange feeling in Azul, a desire to protect her. This girl clearly trusts too easily (according to him), and Azul will happily prevent other lesser students from trying to take advantage of that (which translates to Yui going to Monster Lounge a lot for "better protection" and singing/entertainment services).
Both Yui and Azul suffered quite a bit from comments/bullying due to their physical appearance, though Azul genuinely can't believe people have called Yui UGLY (UGLY? YUI? ARE YOU BLIND?!?-Azul), so I can see Azul being very big on compliments and words of affirmation, actually quite good with comfort and surprisingly patient. Both he and Yui are traumatized people, with many insecurities, just on different levels, and Azul is more than willing to support Yui while she's healing. It's what she would do, after all.
Kalim and Yui are polar opposites, but in the opposite sense that with Leona, Yui probably didn't expect Kalim to receive her in such an abrasive, but above all, warm way. Hell, the guy wanted to do a PARADE just for her arrival. Everyone in Scarabia was super friendly, and above all, Kalim never made her feel like she owed him ANYTHING for all of this. He made her feel IMPORTANT without expecting anything more than her being happy (Yui most likely cried about this, much to Kalim's concern).
Kalim and Yui are equally oblivious when it comes to not trusting people, equally naive in many ways. They generally want to believe the world is full of good people despite everything they've been through. Probably just as Kalim might casually mention his trauma from being poisoned as if it were nothing, he'd be horrified if Yui did the same about what happened with the Sakamakis. He might even burst into tears when he finds out what she went through and hug her for a couple of hours.
A relationship between these two would be too much for NRC to handle; they'd be too brilliant (they're two sunshines combined). Kalim would make it his personal mission to ensure that Yui is spoiled the entire time she is in Scarabia, spending a good amount of time in the sun (to recover from the anemia), eating a ton of food, and lots and lots of cuddles!
Vil most likely noticed Yui immediately thanks to her striking appearance, and Vil was most likely the one who approached her first for a similar reason as Epel: he sees great potential in Yui. However, Yui doesn't really have any interest in such things, though that doesn't stop Vil from giving her advice or correcting her every time he sees her (things like fixing her tie/bow, telling her not to slouch, telling her that someone with her face shouldn't wear (insert generic outfit), etc.).
Vil is completely INCREDULOUS and almost offended when Yui tells him that "certain people" convinced her she was ugly, probably ending up forcing Yui to spend an entire afternoon in Pomefiore to get those ideas out of her through skincare and self-care. After his development, Vil finds Yui absolutely adorable, not only for her looks but for her attitude toward things, although he tends to get in the way if he thinks someone is trying to take advantage of Yui's goodwill, it's a reflex.
I can't describe a relationship between these two other than pure glamour and face card. Vil can't really show much of a relationship because of his career, but luckily Yui is more of an introvert/lowkey person. Small but meaningful things like spending time together at Yui's house, going somewhere new, going out to lunch, or just being with each other are enough, especially when one of them is dealing with their own demons (the Sakamakis? Don't worry, Vil has an extra-strong poison he wants to test on them firsthand).
How Idia and Yui managed to interact without Idia leaving his room or suffering a panic attack at the sight of a real-life pretty girl within 10 meters of him IS the true mystery of NRC. Oh well, most likely they met thanks to Ortho (the best chaperone ever), and you can't convince me that Yui wouldn't want to know what the heck manga is after being raised Catholic her whole life (Idia: My time has come (proceeds to give a 200-slide presentation about manga, Yui taking notes)).
Especially after their Overblot, Idia is convinced that Yui must be disgusted by him, or hate him, at the very least, repulsed by him, but when Yui opens up about her own traumas, what happened to her in her world, why she still doesn't want to come back, he can't help but start to believe that she actually sees him as a friend. Someone that nice is so rare in NRC, he could at least make an effort to maintain that, right?
Don't ask Idia how he got to date Yui; he doesn't know, it just happened. Yui may be somewhat introverted, but she seems extroverted compared to her otaku boyfriend. Idia is definitely the type of boyfriend who shows off his girlfriend a lot (probably because he himself never thought he'd have one). He may be a piece of shit, but anything Yui does? Incredible, excellent, fantastic. He won't be able to protect Yui in the conventional way, but that doesn't make him any less overprotective (the kind of boyfriend who puts tracking apps on both of their phones, starts crying when Yui takes more than 10 minutes to get to her room (he thinks she's dead).)
Malleus expected Yui to be terrified of him like everyone else, but he definitely didn't expect her to see him with eyes wide open and filled with a feeling he never thought he'd see in a human: not fear, not terror, but FASCINATION. Yui doesn't just talk to him casually, call him silly nicknames, touch him as if he were just another student, but, whether she knew who he was or not, she always wanted his company. Malleus was overjoyed, but he also wondered: Why?
Malleus may be a two-meter-tall horned boy, but he's one of the gentlest boys Yui has ever met. She herself tells him she could never be afraid of him, which leaves Tsunotaro rethinking his existence for a solid hour. Him? GENTLE? It wasn't something he was associated with often, if ever. It's something Malleus learned to appreciate from Yui, that she saw things, people, through different eyes, not in the conventional way, that no matter what wrong you've done, you can be better.
Malleus as a partner is VERY devoted. Not only is he physically glued to Yui most of the time, but he shows love in many ways, both dragon and Fae (and some simply Malleus being AUTISTIC Malleus). Things like receiving jewels from the horde, date nights, going to see gargoyles, slow dancing in Diasomnia's lounge, among other things became common for Yui at this point, but most of all, many words of love and appreciation, Malleus will make sure that Yui has a very comfortable life, and being very, very loved (and the Sakamakis will have a very short life--).
Conclution: Yui is the ultimate Mc and should be put in twst for all the pain the Sakajerks have caused her.
