Finally, I can share the cover art I illustrated for Worlds Beyond: A TWST x PKMN Fanbook! 🥳

Check out our carrd to see which shops/conventions will be available to purchase the physical fanbook!

Each contributor may sell merch of their own illustration.

For me, I will be adding the fanbook to my ko-fi store, along with artboard and print of this cover art.

Hopefully before year end! I hope!

I’ll try to have my other merch ready too!

Imagine a silly little story

Yura wanted to surprise Leona somehow—though she had no idea how...

Keith (🐻): "You up for anything?"

asked a good friend she’d made in Savanaclaw. He looked intimidating and had a terrible temper, but he was actually a kind-hearted bear... and he *loved* the idea of annoying Leona. The two didn’t get along very well.

🌼: "Go for it."

After 🐻 helped her get a Savanaclaw uniform (🍩 pitched in too, in exchange for a few coins), he used a simple illusion spell he’d learned in class.

🦁💭: "Please don’t mess with me like this..."

Leona didn’t show how much it got to him. He wanted to be patient... really, he did.

But Yura had a way of cracking through that willpower.

The lion’s thoughts were filled with his pretty girlfriend.

He had been thinking about her even before falling asleep...

🦁💭: "Tch... she should’ve gone for a lioness instead of a tiger... she’s too damn cute."

Keith 🐻 is my friend's oc Aka

So fun fact, I majored in Japanese in college. I’m not fluent but I can hold a decent conversation. Anyway, playing twisted wonderland is funny to me sometimes because a lot of the characters’ personalities come through in the way they speak. But the translation/connotation doesn’t always translate to English.

Jade and Floyd for example are complete opposites. Floyd uses a lot of slang and casual speak compared to Jade.

One example. Floyd in his dream was talking about stuff being boring or つまねえ (tsumane) and Silver questions it saying つまらない (tsumaranai) or “it was boring?” It’s a subtle difference but Floyd’s speech is a little more casual and aloof. Which fits his personality.

Jade often uses keigo when he speaks.

Anyone who has learned Japanese knows Keigo is difficult to learn because I don’t think in English there’s an exact equivalent. But Keigo basically is a humble form of speech where the speaker humbles themselves to speak to someone superior to them. If that makes sense? It’s supposed to be insanely polite. I don’t know how to use it well myself. I barely passed the test in class lmao

An example I noticed in book 7 is in Azul’s dream, Jade asked for Azul’s autograph saying “サインをいただきませんか” (sain o itadakimasenka) which is kind of like “May I humbly receive your autograph?” He also often ends his sentences with いたしました (itashimashita) This formal kind of speech I often see in anime with characters that are butlers/maids. But it’s also used at a convenience store when employees talk to a customer.

But for Jade, it makes me laugh cause we know that he’s extremely cunning and not to be easily trusted. So the Keigo speech feels like a false sense of politeness 😭

The way some other characters speak is interesting to me as well. Like Vil, Epel, Deuce and Idia for example. Anyway thank you for coming to my Ted Talk and letting me ramble about linguistics

Great Seven, why must you punish me like this.

What do you mean Yuu shot the perfect material for jokes the moment I stopped posting? They really dislike me, huh.
