Kore Meraki: Birthday Jacket / Union Birthday SSR - Happy Birthday

The Magical Birthday Dice has decided Kore’s birthday fate. 

Jiawen Zhang belongs to @twstwhisper. 

“Happy Birthday” vignette under the cut. 

Happy Birthday (Part One)

INT. IGNIHYDE DORM - BIRTHDAY PARTY VENUE

KORE: I wonder who my presenter for this year will be? 

KORE: Better not be someone absolutely annoying. 

???: Hey, I’m here. Hope you don’t find my presence “absolutely annoying”.

JIAWEN: Happy birthday, Kore. I hope your special day is going as well as you hoped it would. 

KORE: Ah, Jiawen. Certainly a welcome presence.  

KORE: I definitely rolled a Nat-Twenty with this year’s Magical Birthday Dice!

JIAWEN: An auspicious sign of things to come for sure.

JIAWEN: Here’s the present I picked out for you this year!

KORE: A CHAIR MASSAGE CUSHION!

KORE: BEST BIRTHDAY PRESENT! TEN OUTTA TEN! NEVER LEAVING MY CHAIR NOW!

KORE: Oh Great Seven, thank you so much, Jiawen!

JIAWEN: You’re very welcome, Kore! Glad to know that my gift will definitely be put to good use.

Happy Birthday (Part Two)

INT. IGNIHYDE DORM - BIRTHDAY PARTY VENUE

JIAWEN: Okay, I suppose with gift-giving out of the way, it is time to begin the interview proper. 

KORE: Go right ahead, I’m all ears!

JIAWEN: If you could bring one person with you on a deserted island, who would you choose?

KORE: No offense, Jiawen, but absolutely NO ONE from our dorm. 

KORE: Idia一definitely useless.

KORE: You一a smidge better

KORE: Ortho一probably the best option unless he runs out of power, then majorly screwed. 

KORE: Someone I would want to bring on a deserted island...

KORE: Malleus. 

JIAWEN: Malleus? Interesting choice. Why?

KORE: Two possible ways this goes down.  

KORE: One, the international community freaks out when the heir apparent of Briar Valley goes missing, prompting a search party that quickly gets us rescued from the island. 

KORE: Or two, snap of his fingers, we are both back on the mainland. 

KORE: The most efficient and practical answer. 

JIAWEN: Honestly, I have to agree with you there.

Happy Birthday (Part Three)

INT. IGNIHYDE DORM - BIRTHDAY PARTY VENUE

JIAWEN: Okay, now for the next question. 

JIAWEN: If you were to join any dorm other than here, which dorm would you choose?

KORE: Hmm, now that one is a bit trickier. 

KORE: I definitely don’t mind the conditions of our dorm. Would need to be one with easily livable conditions, so Savanaclaw, Octavinelle, and Scarabia are easily out for me. 

KORE: Heartslabyul is livable, but I doubt I would want to follow their ridiculous rules, so that’s out. 

KORE: That just leaves Pomefiore and Diasomnia. 

KORE: I guess aesthetically and just personality vibes, Diasomnia would be the best option for me. 

KORE: Got the gothic vibe I like and not too proper like Pomefiore. 

KORE: Maybe if I was raised in the Household, Pomefiore would be more my taste一but alas I was not一so Diasomnia it is. 

JIAWEN: That all makes perfect sense. 

JIAWEN: Well, this concludes the interview portion of the celebration. 

JIAWEN: Are you ready for the next part?

KORE: Just don’t mess up my hair! 

KORE: LET’S SEE WHAT YOU GOT, JIAWEN! 

JIAWEN: Happy birthday, Kore!

Twisted Wonderland OC (Zhu Pulao)

(RSA 3rd year)

Artist Note: (5/28-29/25)(note)

Quick summary of what have going for this dude.

Pulao (Mushu-inspired): a Long/Loong Fae who is impulse, cocky, and yet caring. He is the weakest in his family, as he hasn't been able to activate his true strength. Which regulated him to less important tasks, which he is not happy about. For generations, his family acted as the guardian to the Zhu family, who are humans. In the current day and age, the Zhu family believes this history /relationship is just symbolic. When Yulan (Mulan inspired character) left for RSA in secret, Pulao decided to go after her so he could prove himself to everyone. While in RSA, he acted as an older relative (mom) to Yulan. He also takes the Zhu family name.

Note: design are not final and will likely change in the future.

Rook tf is your expression you drama queen--

[screw-wentloose-somewhere]

i NEED two (2) things.

scarabia chapter but leona is on jamil's side. he thinks it's funny asf. every now and then he suggests killing kalim again.

post canon scarabia chapter. leona being smug as all hell about it.

[twstwhisper]

The fact that he called out Jamil and can kinda see the events unfold, since betrayal is about as commonplace as can be when royalty/nobility is the setup.

Considering how the events unfold in Scarabia, he would definitely be having the last laugh.

[twstwhisper]

"Akal jadikan senjata dengan air mataku."

(Translation: "Wisdom becomes a weapon with my tears")

Version behind the curtain and more context in "Read More"

This is a lot more loaded than it looks, so this is a reference to one of the folk tales involving the Princess of Mount Ledang or "Puteri Gunung Ledang". Mount Ledang is a mountain in present day Tangkak District, Johor, Malaysia. But back then there were many folk tales centered upon this place.

In the seven bubbles are seven conditions she has given the Sultan of Melaka/Malacca in order for him to marry her.

A golden walkway/bridge from the mountain to Malacca.

A silver walkway bridge from Malacca back to the mountain.

Seven barrels of maiden's tears

Seven barrels of young betel nut juice from the betel tree for her to bathe in.

Seven trays filled with hearts of germs.

Seven trays filled with hearts of mosquitoes

A bowl of the blood of the Sultan's youngest son.

As expected, the Sultan is unable to fulfill all those wishes. In some interpretations, he did, except the last one, and it resulted in the fall of the Malacca Sultanate, depends on which one you read.

You can find the CG for the costume here, the design is taken from the game Honor of Kings, which is in turn inspired by the 2004 Malay film named Puteri Gunung Ledang, which is in turn also inspired by some Javanese traditional attire.

The lyrics also came from this song, Nara which was created by our local singer Mimifly to commemorate this skin release in the game in conjunction with Malaysia's Independence/National Day in August.

TLDR: Jamil would look pretty in this and I wanna showcase a folk tale of my home country.
