idk if you take anon requests but I am in love with Yandere ruthless and bloodthirsty Pirate captain who's obsessed with a princess from a small kingdom and takes her as wife in exchange for not plundering the kingdom and bleeding out their resources. He had planned for their first evening together to be romantic but she looks too tempting when she's frightened
đč
CW: Extremely rough smut, sadistic behavior, bodily harm, knife play, blood, minor character death, dead dove
Edward listened to two of his crew members gossiping like handmaidens, feeling only mildly annoyed at their squawking. Usually by now he would have threatened to pull out their teeth to keep them quiet, but he secretly could understand their excitement. While pirates were blamed for anything that could go wrong on the open seas, they were actually often employed by nobility to do what their navies could not do legally. Still, it was a surprise to be extended a job offer from a large kingdom, considering Edward's notoriety.
Edward "The Living Death".
There wasn't a crew as fearsome as his. He had never worked for any of the self righteous kings or queens in the past who conscripted pirates for their aid, not because he thought too highly of himself, but because the stories of his wrath scared all the rich bastards away. And the stories were not exaggerations. Edward aimed to make himself the most terrible in the world, because while it was too late to ever be let into heaven, it wasn't too late to become powerful enough to kill Satan himself.
For an entire week the crew would be guests in the sea side kingdom, while The Living Death and two of his men would be welcomed into the castle for negotiations.
It was entertaining, being welcomed onto a king's land, and Edward was curious as to what King was so insane as to ask for his assistance, knowing that Edward was the type of man to torture sailors for sport.
The ship with black sails tied off on the dock of the grey and dull harbor. Although the carriage that awaited Edward was gaudy with its elaborate engravings, the buildings were drab and pitiful. Truly, a thriving kingdom. And the large castle that towered above the impoverished residents was just the icing on the cake. To enter the grounds a large gate had to be slowly opened, physically alienating the royals from their subjects.
The attendant waiting to take Edward and his mates to the study felt his jaw fall agape at the sight of the men. What parts of their bodies were visible were covered in deep scars, the men were large and intimidating, but the leader was almost inhumanly frightening, unnaturally blue eyes that almost looked blind pierced his soul through a mop of shaggy black hair.
Edward met with the king for introductions, however was politely dismissed to the rooms they would be staying in for a bath and meal, promising to begin negotiations the next day.
However, he couldn't expect pirates to do as he asked so blindly, so after his shower and a free change of clothes, Edward decided to wander the gardens, internally arguing with himself over what he is doing in a king's estate. Then he saw her.
A woman in a beautiful, yet simple, dress was being followed by a maid, chatting kindly with one another despite the class difference. From afar her voice touched something in Edward's spirit; a longing he hadn't been able to quench on the ocean.
Marilyn tensed up and fell back behind (Reader) where she was supposed to be, generally. (Reader) looked ahead to see what had frightened her handmaid, and witnessed a man she did not know approaching the both of them.
"Greetings, ladies." His voice was gravelled and exhausted, tugging on (Reader's) heartstrings. From under the stranger's freshly washed hair (Reader) could see a long scar between his eyes, matching the scars that littered the hand he offered to (Reader).
"Good sir." (Reader), without hesitation, responded with an extended hand. Marilyn audibly choked behind her, having to physically bite her tongue to prevent herself from shouting at the man to 'step off!'
Wind burnt lips kissed the back of (Reader's) hand, holding it for an inappropriate amount of time, yet (Reader's) expression of genuine kindness never changed. "You clearly do not know who I am." Although it was said with a smirk his tone was dangerous.
"Just as you clearly do not know of me." (Reader) held herself tall, praying that the man before her was not important enough to feel offended by her ignorance.
Edward's eyes sparkled beautifully as he straightened his back, as to tower over the lovely lady he had just met. The movement shifted his hair, better showcasing not only his eyes but the giant scar stretching from his hairline to the bridge of his nose. "I am here on business."
"What a coincidence." (Reader) smiled coyly. "As am I."
What is this feeling? Edward had many effects on women, fear, disgust, loathing, lust. But the smile on (Reader's) face was honest. Like a child who hasn't yet learned to fear the evils of men, her eyes were clear and unclouded, looking not at his scars, but his eyes; numb to the stench of blood he could never scrub himself clean of, the lamb had no clue she was speaking to a wolf, and he wasn't even in disguise.
"What kind of business does a lady have with a disgusting fool like this king?"
(Reader) gasped, taken back by his words, smiling nervously behind her fan. "Good sir, you just be careful with the way you speak about a king! I will not report you, but others shall not be so kind.." Concern laced her words as she searched the surroundings for eavesdroppers.
"The King knew who I was when he hired me, so he shouldn't be offended by my language."
"Still..." (Reader) sighed. "Well, if you are so curious, I'm here because of a marriage proposition."
"Marriage?" The idea irked Edward, and he had to hold back his hand from almost instinctively lashing out. What a strange reaction, feeling peeved over the possible engagement of a woman he's just met.
"Indeed, strange isn't it? I always knew marriage would one day come, but.. it is still quite the adventure." Her grin tightened, but it wasn't a happy smile, the expression felt more like a mother's attempt to console her frightened child.
There was an odd glow to (Reader's) eyes, and Edward was suddenly under the impression that the woman before him was secretly an angel, sent in disguise to test him, to see if Edward truly did long for the throne of hell. Again, his arm tried to move on it's own accord. What if, instead of allowing such an angel to return to heaven with her report on him, he caged her like a little song bird and ripped off her wings?
"I apologize, Miss, but I must cut our conversation short. Any longer and I might gouge out your eyes." Edward spoke with a smile, revealing his sharpened canines. But again, (Reader) surprised him, giggling back at him as though he had just made a light-hearted joke, while her maid behind her was grasping her breast like she was having a heart attack.
"Well, I shall keep a spoon in my pocket in case we need again!" (Reader's) laughter filled the garden.
She curtsied, back still straight and head dipped only as low to be polite. The maid, on the other hand, was practically folded in half and was bent down for so long she had to scurry after her lady.
As the mystery woman left, Edward had a lot of strange, foreign thoughts and feelings causing chaos in his mind and heart. He briefly fantasized about running after her, and taking her for himself behind a bush while her maid screamed for help. He had seen plenty of women's bodies before, but the fantasy of what could be hidden by his mystery lady's bodice was.. tantalizing.
Would she be impressed by his body? Or fearful? What kind of face would she make as he forced her to carry his children? Would she look at him with love and tenderness during the birth of their first born? Would she bite and scream and fight?
Edward discovered that he would have to return to his room prematurely, perplexed as to who that woman was, and why she had such an effect on him, causing an arousal despite not saying, or doing, anything sexually exciting.
Marilyn smacked her princess on the shoulder, red in the face and mouth frozen in horror. "My lady! I can't believe you!"
"What? Did my joke not make sense?" (Reader) asked in earnest. "I said I'd carry a spoon, so he had something to easily scoop my eyes out with."
"Not that, you-you- IMBECILE!" Marilyn cried out, grasping the lady she adored like a sister. "That man was The Living Death!"
"Oh. He didn't look dead to me." Another slap connected with the back of her neck.
"He was a pirate! A pirate!"
"A pirate? What was he doing here?" (Reader) nervously pondered, examining her maid's expression to see if she was pulling her leg.
"I don't know, but you should write a letter to your father immediately. No good man would want his daughter marrying into a family that deals with rotten apples."
After the sun rose into the dreary kingdom, Edward and his mates were finally invited into King Nikolai's study, meeting the rotund bastard who reeked of wine and pulled at his codpiece frequently.
"Thank you for agreeing to meet with me today, gentlemen. You've saved me from an uncomfortable situation. That is, if you agree to my request."
"Well, let's not make this longer than necessary." Edward spat in disgust, feeling as though he would catch syphilis from just speaking with his potential employer.
"My son, my heir, has two marriage candidates. Two worthy marriage candidates. My friend, King Leopold has a, frankly stupid, daughter, Princess Cadence. Leopold and I decided long ago that his daughter should marry my son, and become queen when he surpasses me. Now the issue is King Dretious. His kingdom is.. small, but not unimpressive. It thrives wonderfully. He has only two daughters, pitiful him. The eldest is being trained to be his successor, which is wonderful for him since he was blessed with bright and charismatic daughters, but no man who marries her well become King, so there is no incentive there to send even my sons I dislike. The youngest, is a perfect marriage candidate. Princess (Reader). Intelligent, charming, attractive.." He took a ragged breath, his mind traveling to where it should not. "I desire her land. If she marry my son I'd have access as family to her resources, and in a generation or two my grandchildren could gain control of that little rock. But it isn't worth ruining my relationship with Leopold. That would be.. catastrophic."
Edward numbly wondered if the young woman he met was Princess Cadence, or Princess (Reader). In the short time he spent with her she certainly didn't seem stupid, so he was leaning towards the latter.
"But I want that land. Do you understand me?" King Nikolai's smile was sinister. "You can have whatever is in their castle, whatever can be looted, as long as I receive the deeds to their nation, signed and stamped, and King Dretious and his kin are exterminated."
"And what do we get? If I wanted to plunder a small country, I could do that without needing permission."
"Full, under the table, immunity, as well as enough money for you and your crew to retire in the Caribbean as lords." He was so smug as he pleaded his bargain that Edward considered killing him just to see him choke on his own blood.
Edward stood, walking around the king towards the window, debating whether or not it would be worth it to kill the fat asshole right then and there. But below the window, under a flowered tree, sat the woman he met the day before, watching birds as they flew overhead. "I met a young lady in the garden yesterday. She said she was here for a marriage proposition."
"Hmph, yes.. attractive, isn't she? That would have been Princess (Reader). She is unaware of her competition with Leopold's daughter, so it would have been unwise to have them both here at the same time."
(Reader) had her lips pursed, upset about something. 'How would those lips taste?' Edward thought excitedly.
"We'll do it." Edward spoke loudly, startling his men who were surprised by the boss's response.
His men questioned him on the way back to the ship. Surely he wasn't serious? Of course not... Captain Edward "The Living Death", the man who abandoned his family name, had a plan, one that he had come up with purely for selfish reasons, that did not include sucking up to a disease ridden rat. And he assured them, that after he got what he wanted, the crew would return, and burn King Nikolai's kingdom to the ground.
The wonderfully jolly, soft King Dretious, known for being unlike the cruel kings who ruled throughout the land, plump with age instead of greed, was petrified solid. The elderly father who was seen as a grandfather figure to his small island, blessed by the gods to always have the wisdom to do what was right, was stunned, incapable of coherent thought. Before him was a pirate captain who had demanded an audience, two months after his darling baby girl returned home from another country.
"What did you just say?" He stuttered out.
Edward stood beneath the kindly king sitting on his throne while wearing an ostentatiously decorated black frock coat, shining with it's abundance of gold decorations and precious jewels. His unnaturally bright eyes were fixated on the mortified princess standing behind her father.
"I have been hired to bring ruin to your kingdom. However, if you offer me a better prize than what I was promised by my employer, I'll reconsider my agreement with him." His gaze made (Reader's) skin crawl.
King Dretious swallowed the lump in his throat. "And what would that be? Whoever had the gall to request such a reason clearly had the resources to hire you, so I doubt anything of mine will compare."
"True. However, it isn't your money I'm after.." Edward stepped forward, still fixated on the younger princess will a hungry expression.
The eldest sister recognized the look of a predatory man before her father did, and stepped in front of (Reader) in a protective stance.
"I demand Princess (Reader's) hand in marriage."
"No!" The eldest princess spun around, grabbing onto (Reader) and hiding her within her embrace. "Father, you can't!"
"Please, Captain, isn't there anything else?" The King frantically begged, knowing that his army wasn't enough against The Living Death and his infamous crew of the damned.
Edward sighed, his patience wearing thin. With a snap of his fingers, his men brought forward four captives; the cook, two guards, and Marilyn. "Let's try that again." The demon spawn pulled out a gun and cocked it, aiming it at the older guard.
"Let's be civil-"
The King was cut off by a loud shot, killing the innocent man who had been a loyal employee of the castle for the past thirteen years. (Reader) hollered, frightened by the sudden bang.
Edward moved over to Marilyn, pulling down the hammer slowly. "No!" (Reader) burst free from her sister, running down the steps to fling herself onto her only friend's body, ready to be her shield.
"(Reader)!"
(Reader) cradled her maid, glaring through tears up at the man she foolishly thought was handsome only a couple of months ago. "I'LL DO IT! I'll do it! Just please.. no more."
Marilyn sobbed under (Reader's) weight. "Princess, no! Please - save yourself!"
"Sister, come back here now." The queen to be demanded, shaking and on the brink of tears herself.
Edward smiled wider than before, holstering his weapon. "Wise choice, angel." He turned his attention back to the King. "I hope you don't mind that there will be no wedding. For you see, God has no place in my life, even for happy occasions. I've already procured a marriage contract, so once it is signed that shall be that."
A calloused hand reached out to the princess.
"Shall we?"
The country was in mourning as the news of the princess's sacrifice spread faster than a plague, and nearly the entire country arrived to see her off as she boarded the pirate ship with black sails, stiffly shuffling next to her new husband, the certificate signed and verified only an hour prior. On what should be one's happiest day, the air was filled with sounds of heart breaking agony. (Reader) was numbly dragged onto the ship and into the captain's quarters, no longer a princess, but a wife to a monster.
Edward locked the door behind them, smiling wolfishly. "Welcome, to your new home, darling. Unfortunately, we will have to prolong our honeymoon, as I have a country to conquer."
"What?!" (Reader) collapsed before her new husband, clutching onto his shirt. "But you promised!"
"Ah, apologies, love, but I did not mean your old country." He pulled her onto her feet, kissing her knuckles. "I meant the country that asked me to kill you. Now that you are my wife, I can't stand for such insolence, now can I?"
(Reader) pulled away, eyes wide with disgust. "Was this your plan from the start? If you never truly cared, then why take me? Whatever loot you plunder from whoever it was that employed you will surely be worth more than my father's entire island, so if you had no qualms about taking on a presumably larger nation-state, then why?"
"You are a smart one." Edward chuckled, approaching (Reader) with a look she had never seen before, yet for some reason set her on edge. "I did it because I wanted you."
He lunged, tackling her onto a large bed covered in silk and furs. She struggled, fighting with all her might to push him off of her, but she just wasn't strong enough. (Reader) bit her lip in an effort to not cry again, a pitiful attempt to retain her pride.
"So strange.. I have had whores throw themselves at me many times in the past, but they were nothing but bodies. What is it about you that is so different?"
Nothing but bodies.. (Reader) had learned from Marilyn what happens on a woman's wedding night, but in the chaos of her marriage she had forgotten that that was what this was, her wedding night. Her face fell, tears whelmed up in her puffy red eyes, and her resolve to look brave cracked.
But this expression seemed to only excite the mad man further. His blue eyes grew hazy like he was drunk and his breathing became irregular. "So that's what you would look like.. I wondered."
A large knife was procured from behind his back, causing (Reader) to cry harder. With sadistically slow movements he cut through her dress. She made pathetic attempts to swipe at him, but Edward only responded by effortlessly flipping her onto her belly, slicing through the lace of her corset.
"So many layers to finally see the body I've been dreaming of. That will change, of course. If I want to see your beauty, I will. Even if you must live in the nude."
He ignored her screams as he tore off every article of clothing she wore, leaving (Reader) naked and shivering beneath him.
"Is it me that makes you shudder like this, or is it," he placed the blade against (Reader's) cheek, earning another gasp as her body practically convulsed, "either way, I'll pretend that your shaking is in excitement for me."
With (Reader) now on her back, Edward held the knife to her throat to prevent her from running while he removed his own clothing with one hand. Her sobs only grew louder as more of his scarred skin became visible.
"Please do-don't do this!"
"Don't what? Make love to my newlywed wife? Fine then. I'll fuck you instead."
His pants slipped down, revealing his fully erect manhood. (Reader) closed her eyes in shame, but Edward grabbed her face with enough force to bruise her chin, snapping them back open in shock of the pain.
"Look at what you've done to me. Without grabbing at my pants and begging me like a slut, you've already made my cock like this. Don't you feel special, knowing that you have that effect on your husband." Edward continued squeezing his bride's face painfully, forcing her to nod in agreement.
The tip of the knife drug down her skin without enough pressure to cut, but enough for (Reader) to feel the cold threat tingling and creating goosebumps, traveling teasingly from her breasts and over her quivering stomach, stopping at her exposed cunny. (Reader) felt the metal touch her where she was told never to touch herself, and was consumed by humiliation.
"Unfortunately for you, it seems that your modest body has not prepared itself for me. I would have taken the time to wetten your cunt, but as per your request, I am not to make love to you, but to fuck you."
"What does that-" a searing pain electrocuted her body as (Reader's) dry pussy was stretched over Edward's dick. Her throat was aching from all the screaming, but that didn't stop the sounds of agony from shrieking out.
He held himself inside of her, relishing in the feeling of her twitching hole tightening almost unbearably around him. For a brief moment, Edward's heart swelled with love, and he considered licking his fingers to provide his wife with lubrication, but the look on her face.. just from entering her (Reader) became so red she was almost purple, eyes flickering as though she were to pass out. It was too beautiful for words.
As he pulled out it caused an awful friction that (Reader) swore she could hear, an awful shuk shuk shuk as Edward removed himself, only to slam back in. It felt like she was being torn apart. He continued thrusting into her rapidly swelling sacred place. The tearing sensation morphed into a burning one, as her blood slickened her hole.
His movements only sped up, pounding into his bruised and bloody princess. (Reader) began to adjust to the pain, and started to push against Edward's chest, desperate enough to fight against him despite his knife still being held to her thigh.
Suddenly, (Reader's) legs were raised and folded back, pressing down into her arms to prevent her from moving. She pulled and struggled, disgusted by the wet noise as Edward's hips connected with hers, uncomfortably aware of his pelvis grinding against her sore clit. Edward grabbed her face again, popping her jaw open and sliding his knife into her mouth.
"Don't struggle, or you just might cut out your tongue." The man threatened, his malicious words clashing with the intense lust in his eyes.
(Reader's) nose scrunched up as she tried to glare at Edward, unable to spit out the knife because of his hold on her face.
"Ah, continue looking at me like that!" He sang with praise, his legs twitching with anticipation. "I'm about to cum!"
(Reader) didn't quite know what that meant, but she could feel him throbbing inside of her.
"I was going to wait until you've gotten used to being my wife, but I think I'm going to cum inside you! Fuck, I'm going to put my babies in you! I'm going to knock you up!"
Learning what was about to happen, (Reader) tried to scream without bumping the knife in her teeth.
Suddenly, the knife was thrown across the room, replaced by Edward's lips, shoving his tongue deep into her mouth as he climaxed deep in his wife's raw pussy. (Reader) didn't know if it was because she was aware that he was cumming inside of her, or if it was because of the paper thin cuts along her vaginal wall, but the fluid pumping into her was horrendously hot, burning her abused body.
He collapsed onto her, still kissing her passionately, tasting the lips he had craved since he first met her. When Edward pulled away, admiring the unbroken string of saliva connecting him to his lover, he knew why he had been so enamored with (Reader) since the beginning.
"I'm so excited to drag you down into hell with me, princess." 'There will be no escape from me. You are my gift from Satan, my little angel. You belong to me.'

yandere anne boleyn secretly seeing you headcanons!
â đč â lady l: this is a really soft and sweet treat, but I wanted something like this for Valentine's Day, so here it is! I hope you like it and forgive me for any mistakes. â€ïžđ„°
âtw: none, just fluff.
âđčpairing: soft yandere!anne boleyn x gender neutral!reader.
It had been weeks since you and the Queen exchanged glances and smiles when you thought no one was watching. You knew this was a dangerous game, you knew the Queen's reputation was tarnished by scandalous and dubious rumors, but that didn't matter to you, not when you found yourself fascinated more and more by her.
During one night, a night that you both knew Henry would be too busy with one of his mistress to care about his wife, Anne finally made the first move. She invited you to meet her in one of the gardens, in a dark and private place.
Against your better judgment, you accepted and that's how you ended up in the garden, with a dark veil covering you and carrying a small candle in your hand so that it wouldn't be completely dark. You only stopped walking when you saw the firelight of another candle, indicating who you were going to meet.
The garden was enveloped in a solemn silence, interrupted only by the soft rustling of leaves in the wind. It was a little unnerving, but you carried on. Holding the candle carefully, you approached the light that danced in the distance, indicating the presence of Anne Boleyn. Your heart beat wildly, a mixture of excitement and apprehension permeating your thoughts.
When you found her, her face illuminated by the flickering flame, everything around her seemed to fade away. Her eyes, shining with a captivating intensity, met yours, and for a moment the world seemed to freeze around you. There was a flame, a spark that shone in the Queen's beautiful blue eyes and you found yourself mesmerized.
"You came." Her voice, a soft whisper charged with emotion, broke the silence. Her presence exuded an irresistible magnetism, enveloping you in a spell you didn't want to escape.
"How could I resist such a tempting invitation, especially from my Queen?" You replied, your tone tinged with a hint of playfulness, as you approached her.
Anne smiled, her lips curving in a charming gesture, and then, on an irresistible impulse, you reached out to touch her. The contact was electric, sending waves of heat through your body as you lost yourself in the fleeting moment. Without thinking twice, she brought her body closer to yours and took your lips in a passionate kiss.
For a brief moment, the weight of responsibilities and consequences disappeared, replaced by the pure and intense connection between you. Under the cover of darkness, you were just two beings lost in the forbidden labyrinth of love. Anne's grip became tighter and more possessive, her arms not wanting to leave you for any moment.
It was just the two of you and that was more than perfect for Anne. You made her feel loved and wanted again and the thought of meeting you in the dead of night excited her in a way nothing before had. She never wanted this moment to end, desperately wanting to keep you in her arms.
But even in the dim light, the time was relentless, and the outside world began to intrude on your temporary refuge. With a reluctant sigh, you separated, aware of the lines that bound you and the consequences that awaited beyond the garden's boundaries. Anne didn't want to let you go, but she knew she had to. She couldn't risk you being accused of treason and ending up dead. She shuddered just at the thought of it.
"Until next time." You whispered, your heart heavy with the uncertainty of the future. You just knew you would have to see her more often, your body and your heart were begging for it. They begged for Anne's touch.
Anne nodded, her eyes capturing yours with a silent promise, before disappearing into the darkness. You had a feeling this wouldn't be the first time you'd met her. A story between you was about to happen, but would it have a happy ending? Only time will tell.

Card Set Hanakotoba
Recently I was discussing with my lovely friend @istoleyourboat about the meanings behind the flowers in this new card set, and I felt the urge to chronicle them somewhere! I thought you guys might get a kick out of it, too, so this seemed as good a place as any to put it.
So without further ado...
1. Hanako-kun - Queen of the Night
The Queen of the Night (æäžçŸäșș) is a cactus flower that blooms just once a year for a single night. Because of this, the most heavily associated meanings with the flower are "transient beauty", "fleeting love," and "the urge to see someone just once."
The short-lived life of this flower feels quite fitting for our ghosty boy! I also like how the flower looks both beautiful and unsettling...all around a fantastic choice by AidaIro.
2. Nene Yashiro - Strawberry Blossoms
If you have paid attention to the Hanakotoba in TBHK before, then Nene being associated with strawberries should be nothing new to you. Regardless, the prevalent Hanakotoba for Strawberry Blossoms (ă€ăăŽ) are "love," "innocence," and "you make me happy."
The "you make me happy" one makes me want to kick my feet around and squeal a little. Isn't that cute!? I also feel the strawberry is especially fitting for Nene because it seems like something she would grow in her Gardening Club.
3. Kou - Clivia
Otherwise known by the names Bush Lily or Natal Lily, the Hanakotoba for Clivia (ććè) are "sincere," "noble" and "good-hearted."
I think this all fits very nicely with our resident good boy Kou, hm?
4. Teru - Bird of Paradise
The Bird of Paradise (ăčăăŹăȘăăą) symbolizes "faithfulness," "magnificence," "a bright future" and "superficial love."
Even at a glance this flower really pops out at you, making it a great fit for the ever-impressive Teru. I really, really love this choice!!
5. Sakura - Hellebore
Otherwise known as the Christmas Rose, the Hellebore (ăŻăȘăčăăčăăŒăș) represents "reminiscence," "never forget me" and "notice my woes."
The way this beautiful flower seems to cast its head down makes it look almost sad. I suppose that's why it has such pitiful meanings associated with it!
6. Natsuhiko - King Protea
King Protea (ăăłă°ăăăăą), also known as the Sugarbush, symbolizes "strength," "courage," "resilience," and "a king's quality."
If you notice, Natsuhiko always has a little crown-shaped tuft hidden in his hair, so AidaIro associating Natsuhiko with a flower that references royalty pleases me. There's still a lot of mystery surrounding him, but we can at least confirm that Natsuhiko is, indeed, strong and resilient.
7. Akane - Ivy
The plain, non-flowering ivy stands out in stark contrast to the other plants here, but that's because the hanakotoba for it is just that good. Ivy (ăăă©) means "everlasting love," "I take this feeling to the afterlife," "faithfulness", and "marriage."
Like, if that doesn't scream Akane, I don't know what does.
8. Aoi - Hydrangea
Again, if you've been paying attention to Hanakotoba in the series, this will not be the first time you've seen Aoi paired with hydrangea. Regardless, hydrangea (ăąăžă”ă€) represents "enduring love," "mystique," and "fickleness."
The hydrangea is also associated with rejection, more specifically the coldness of a person who rejects the romantic advances of another. It's just such a perfect Aoi flower, there's no wonder AidaIro is so attached to it.
đđžđŒđ»đ·đčđ„đș
Thank you for reading till the end! And I urge you to look up these flowers yourself and see if you can find any meaning to them I may have missed. You might find something brilliant that I completely overlooked!

đčCan I please request the heartslabyul boys reacting to their female s/o acedently getting white bunny ears during a chemistry accident and just goes with it.
(I had to Google his name it's. Nivens McTwisp)
â€ïžHer going to there dorm dressed like the white rabbit from Alice in wonderland who was the red queen's herald who specifically told her the time with a golden watch that was ironically always late.
đčImagen her coming intentonly late to a unbirtday party and then they see her running up to them holding something and before riddle could nag to her he sees her outfit (houd he let her go for being late in this situation. )
â€ïžAnd her just playing her role perfectly as the rabbit.
đčWhat would the heartslabyul students find of their s/o doing it for their dorm instead of saying she is not coming.
Riddle Rosehearts
Ace and Deuce reported to him that you had received bunny ears due to a chemistry accident, and he was about to behead them when he saw you running in exclaiming how you were late, you were late, you were late.
Just one look at the soft white ears that sat upon the top of your head had the Housewardenâs heart fluttering. Your outfit didnât make his already-red face clear up at all. Any thought of scolding you for being late for your date in the labyrinth was gone as he just admired you.
âYour Majesty, Iâm sorry Iâm late! I can only beg for your forgiveness!â You pleaded as you knelt to the ground and bowed before Riddle.
The poor boy didnât know what to do; he was truly at a loss for words. He heard Ace make some comment about how he was âdown bad for youâ, and he resumed the beheading before asking you to rise. He extended his arm out to you, and you took it and you both made your way through the rose garden to the spot he set up for your afternoon tea outing.
Trey Clover
He let out an exasperated sigh when the ADeuce duo told him that because of a chemistry incident, you had gained bunny ears. Every single time you were involved with those two, you always ended up with an entirely new problem. But, right then you walked into the kitchen while looking at a golden pocket watch.
Trey greeted you, which broke you out of your panicked trance. He thought you looked absolutely adorable with the ears, but he didnât dwell on it too much. After all, he was glad that his beloved was finally there to help him with baking.
âSorry Iâm late, Trey! My watch is a few minutes behind, now that I think about it,â you scratched the back of your head, and he just chuckled as he placed a kiss on your forehead.
It didnât matter to the baker, because as long as you were there at all everything was alright. You got started on mixing the dry ingredients of the tart together when you felt your boyfriend wrap his arms around your torso from behind. Your ears twitched in embarrassment, but it made him a bit smug.
Cater Diamond
This man was intrigued when Ace texted him and said that you got rabbit ears because of an accident in chemistry. From what he could tell, you already seemed adorable. So, imagine his reaction when you walked into the garden with white bunny ears, a cute outfit, and a golden pocket watch to go with.
You were walking quickly, mumbling to yourself that you were late. If you thought that Cater would quickly pull out his phone and take a picture of you, you would be correct. However, he is not planning on posting it. This photo is for him and him alone.
âHere I am, Cater! Sorry for being late!â Once you spotted him, you ran up to him and gave him a hug, to which he gladly reciprocated.Â
Oh, you were going to kill him if you continued to be this cute. But if this is how he went out, then he would die a happy man. He pulled away from the embrace to grab your hand and lead you to the unbirthday party, to which you were now both late to.Â
Ace Trappola
He was probably the one who messed up the potion in the first place, but he was definitely not upset at the result. His oh-so-lovely girlfriend got rabbit ears as a consequence, and he is eating it up. Donât even get me started on when you went to change and came to Heartlabyul dressed in an outfit based on the White Rabbit.Â
This man just about died from how cute you were with the ears, and the way you were looking for him in a frenzied way. Did you do all of this for him? Is the room growing hotter? Is it just him? Wait, heâs outsideâŠ
âSorry Iâm late, Ace! Do you need help with the table decorations?â You asked innocently after pressing a short kiss to his lips.
Immediate nosebleed. He was way too flustered to even begin comprehending what just happened, and a few of his dorm members started laughing at how much of a simp he was being. But, he honestly didnât care. None of the other guys had a super cute/hot girlfriend who dresses up for them.
Deuce Spade
He was in the classroom when Ace accidentally dropped an unfinished potion on you, so that means he saw the bunny ears grow out of the top of your head. You were dismissed from class early, but you texted him and said that you would be able to make it for the unbirthday party.Â
What he did not expect was for you to 1) be late and 2) show up in a cute outfit. You were checking a pocket watch that you had while also looking for someone, presumably him. When you did find him, you ran and threw your arms about his neck as you pulled him into a kiss.
âIâm finally here! Do you like my outfit?â You asked in a very excited manner.
The poor manâs heart was racing, and his face was glowing red at this point. It took everything in him to not have his nose bleed. Then, the teasing from Ace began, and he would have thrown hands had you not laced your arm with his. You really did have him wrapped around your finger, didnât you?

A Love Letter For YouÂ
Happy Valentineâs Day! The soft romantic in me has been waiting for such an opportune time đđčđđ« For all my champions of self-love out there, focusing on themselves, I just want to remind you that you can go on your healing journey and still have someone special in your life. Doesnât have to be romance. Any kind of love boils down to connection.
Feel free to choose a pile/s that calls out to you. Some details may not resonate since this is a general reading. As always, nothing is set in stone, so please donât take it too seriously. Go on, love. đ
Note: I take way too many pictures of flowers I see on trips.
Pile 1
The Lovers (back of the deck), 2 of Wands, The Empress, The Tower
Okay, WOW, what cards to begin with for a love letter! Big time SOULMATE energy. The Lovers already peeked at me twice before I officially started to shuffle. Whoever this is, they want to reach out to you badly. Bonus: my neighbors started to sing Valentine by Jim Brickman on karaoke while I was interpreting. PLEASEEE.)
âMy love,
You are so beautiful to me. The moment our eyes meet, I canât help but see stars in the best wayâ I am struck with an overflowing affection for you. Your gaze draws me in and humbles me at the same time. I love looking at you, at your face and your body. I like taking in every single inch of you, filling my vision with only you. Being with you inspires me. Youâre radiant and you have so much going on for you. You can make me appreciate any small, insignificant thing about our world.Â
You may have felt some distance between us as of late. I do not mean to stay away from youâ in fact, I want to be closer to you, but taking a step back is my way of looking at things clearly and objectively. The truth is, my feelings for you are so strong, it terrifies me. I want to sweep you off your feet. That is why right now, I am gathering my confidence and coming up with a plan to impress you. It may sound corny, but I really want to shake your world, the same way you have to mine.Â
Youâre my queen / king. My all-or-nothing. You and I have so much potential, my love. I apologize if I appear indecisive to you. There are things about myself I need to conquer first before I can fully offer myself to you. I donât want anything false to stand in the wayâ I want to unite with you in the barest of both our truths so that we can stand the test of time.Â
I will make my choice soon, and I will let you know. I hope you can wait for me.Â
Your soulmateâ
Pile 2
The Sun (back of the deck), 10 of Cups, Knight of Cups, 4 of Swords
Honestly, can it get any more romantic than this? Pile 2, this letter is from your happy pill. I feel that this is the pile for those who have gotten together recentlyâhoneymoon vibes. For a few, you could already be engaged to this person, actually, or someone youâre in a warm and stable long-term relationship with. The emotions are strong without a doubt. Lovely intuitive energy.
âDarling,
The sun has never shone so brightly than when weâre together. I began to see and appreciate the world once you have stepped into it and made it colorful with your sheer presence. Honestly, I feel like a child, seeing everything with fresh eyes. Iâm convinced that youâre the other half of my heart that completes me, at the same time you make me see myself as my own kind of whole, like Iâm invincible. I picture paradise with your face and beautiful eyes in my mind.Â
Romancing you is my favorite thing to do. Whoever said that chivalry is dead? I admit, Iâm not usually one to get out of my way to make moves, until you. The garden of my imagination grows whenever I think of ways to make you laugh. Itâs a wonder that you give me feelings Iâve never had before, yet these emotions flow surely, delicately, in a river that only leads to you.
Now, however, my dear, I feel that we should not rush and slow down a little. As much as I want to be in everlasting bliss with you, I feel that we should be careful not to get carried away. Itâs important that weâre grounded and not overwhelmed. I donât mind having a little quiet, so this is my way of sitting with you and holding your hand in the absence of words between us.Â
I hope you always remember that youâre the love and light of my life. Iâll never leave you alone.Â
Your personâ
Pile 3
The Fool (back of the deck), Death, The Chariot, The Hierophant
Hey there, Pile 3. This person has a spontaneous and easily excited energy. Your relationship seems to be in a kind of transition right now, one that is uncomfortable and maybe even painful (Iâm sorry to hear that. Hang in there). What I can say is, theyâre quite focused on you right now, though they are working on themselves. Above all, they just want to be on the same page as you.
âSweetheart,
I know I havenât been the most reliable person lately. I am a self-proclaimed fool who gets bright-eyed at shiny things that catch my attention. Do you know that youâre the first person whoâs made me feel like this? Iâm suddenly aware of how fickle I can be. This feeling of innocence can only be so sweet until I get my head down from the sky and see the reality that my behavior was already pushing you away from me.
Iâm so sorry. I want to change and do right by youâ show you action that is truly aligned with my honest intentions for you. You illuminated my faults that I now want to mature and be wiser from. I want to be worthy of holding your heart. I know that between us, weâre not really in the best place right now, but you know⊠I donât need the rest of those shiny things. Youâre the one I want. I think you and I are meant to be.Â
I want to reconcile our differences and finally release the past that doesnât have to dictate our future. Commitment is not an easy road, I know, especially for someone with a nature like mine, but I hope you believe me when I say that I do want the real deal with you, everything. And I hope you will still accept me despite me being rough around the edges.
From, Meâ
Pile 4
Judgment (back of the deck), Queen of Cups Rx, Queen of Pentacles, 7 of Cups Rx
You seem to have quite a deep bond with this person, Pile 4. A lot of emotions between you, too. I feel that they welcome it, the reflections and awakenings, but they feel overwhelmed about it right now. Thereâs a prominent feeling of being under a magnifying glass.Â
âMy dear,
Of all the people in my life, it is you who always sees through me, as if I am made of glass. The more I spend time with you, the more I discover things about myself, both good and bad. Youâre a force to be reckoned with.
Itâs made me kind of awake, and vigilant somehow, but sometimes to the point where Iâm walking on eggshells. I know you mean well, and you may not be even entirely aware of your effect on me, but it has taken a toll on my emotions. It pushed me to be more conscious than I should beâ I donât want to be dependent on you like that.
You push me to be a better person and Iâm more than grateful for your inspiring presence in my life, but I would like us to return to a more stable groundâ one that wonât ask for too much too soon. Let us slow down for a bit, my dear, so we can tackle the bumps along the road one at a time, instead of rushing into a rocky path. I donât believe our relationship has to have us constantly catching up to one another, but to have us patiently grounding ourselves until we see eye-to-eye, without rose-colored glasses.
I love you. I hope you will be able to accept me not just for who I could be but for who I am right now, in front of you.
Your loveâ
Pile 5
Knight of Swords (back of the deck), Queen of Swords, 9 of Swords, 6 of Pentacles, 3 of Cups, 10 of Swords
This is from a sharp and driven person, Pile 5. With all these Swords, I believe you have an intellectual relationship with them. A lot of your conversations stimulate you both mentally and you canât seem to stop talking to each other for real. Itâs giving me the trope of two people from a debate club who keep riling each other up. They think very highly of you. Youâre also on their mind on loop.
âHey (your name),
Our banter is one-of-a-kind. Itâs always kind of fun talking to you, wanting to know what you think about something or another. Our opinions may clash sometimes but I canât help but respect you anyway because youâve never been one to back down. Hell, I always want to impress you. Replaying our conversations in my head keeps me up at night.
I donât think you see what I genuinely think of you, though. On the outside I may seem cold, but itâs a double-edged sword. I probably worry more about what you really think of me than I should. A lot goes on inside me than I show whenever we interact. Being playfully savage with each other is kind of our thing, but there are some things I take to heart. Iâm not even sure how much you meant it, or if this is really just something my mind does now with the way youâre affecting me. It hurts sometimes, you know.
Deep down, I long for you to feel the same admiration for me as I do for you. I want to be seen as an equal by someone so stable, strong-willed and has so much to give like you do. Iâm not the only one who wants a taste of you and itâs plain to see why. Most of all, if you permit, I would like to be more than friends with you.
Iâm still gonna try to burn the hell out of your argument, though.Â
From, (their name)â
Pile 6
4 of Cups (back of the deck), 2 of Pentacles, Strength, 7 of Pentacles, The Magician
Oh my, this is someone you wouldnât have guessed is holding a torch for you! A secret admirer of sorts. Theyâre very lowkey but seem to be popular in their own way from other people, receiving offers that they only turn down or even pretend not to see. Theyâre not making any kind of moves but let me tell you, Pile 6, theyâre trying really hard not to slip around you. (How sweet! Theyâre also learning to manifest because of you!)
âDear (your name),
You may see me as unbothered but really, all it takes is one move. One look, one smile from you, one second to hear your laugh. I thought I had a pretty strong facade, but I have a hard time focusing when youâre near. You may see me for who I really am, a big softie for you, and Iâm just not ready for that yet.
Youâre so different from me, yet I can see similarities between us. Youâre larger than life but I donât see you making a big deal about it; youâre just⊠who you are, and youâre amazing. Balanced. Humble. You know when to step forward and when to step back. How do you do it? How do you have all the energy for thatâ rather, how do you control that energy? As for me, I know I focus way too much trying not to be seen.
I want to get to know you, and I dare say I want to get close to you. I donât find coming out of my shell easy at all, especially around you, but I believe youâre worth it. I know it takes a lot of time and effort, considering the way I am right now. Iâll keep working on it, Iâll take it one day at a time if I have to. You empower me and make me realize my potential. Iâll do my best to get there. Then Iâll let you know.
Happy Valentineâs Day, From (their name)â
đčđđ« đčđđ«
Thank you for taking the time to interact with my reading! I hope this has helped you in one way or another and hopefully sprinkled a little sweetness in your day. Take it easy and stay safe~đ

Oya!! I have had an angsty thought!! Do you think anyone in Night Raven reminds Ciel of Madam Red? Because I think itâd be Riddle. He:
-Comes from a doctor background
-Is extremely feisty
âIs very red
-Based on the spirit of a Queen (which Red so was.)
OMG It is interesting!!đł Maybe it really is his red hair colorâ€ïž I think the Heartslabyul garden itself would remind Ciel of Madam Redđą đčđ„đč
I think Ciel might have thought, "The color of his hair is similar to the color of the fiery lycoris.." and then he wouldn't focus on itđ
And perhaps their characters may also be a little similar. Ciel would have noticed some similarities but still did not talk about itâ€ïžđ
THANKS FOR SHARING THIS!!đ„°đ„°đ„°

đčđQueen/Mother Lilith master-post đđŠ
DISCLAIMER
There are many people saying that working with Queen Lilith is closed, id ask that you please go to the last link. A Jewish content creator goes into detail about why 1.) That's false and 2.) Why claiming this is actually antisemitic.
I understand that this deity may hold a negative context to different people/cultures(i.e. people of Jewish culture)/faiths etc. Please be respectful and mindful. Both the people and the divinity have the right to respect. Just because a divinity/entity has been the best thing in the world to you, doesnât mean thatâs the case for someone else(vice versa). Thank you for your consideration.
Mother Lilith is a divinity that I hold very dear. She has been a big help to me and has guided me in my journery of self love and reparenting myself.
Lore/mythology (briefly summarized)
Lilith originally was the first wife of Adam; made from the same primordial matter as her counterpart by the one who created her. She has left the garden in anger because she refused to lay under Adam; Lilith wanted to be seen as Adams equal but he refused. God sent angels to take Lilith back to Eden at Adamâs request. She was located near/in/at the Red Sea. Her children had been slain because of her refusal to return. ( I have heard conflicting info from different sources but Iâll recall what I think is to be more accurate at this point). Some of the fallen angels (a big figure being Lord Lucifer) had made themselves acquainted with her and they had gained each othersâ trust. This is the point where Lilith had became a demon and was at least set on the path to becoming a highly ranked Infernal deity(if not at this point already). Lilith at some point after this whispered empowering thoughts into Eve during her dreams; leading her to eat the fruit.
Lilith also has an aspect tied to the Mesopotamian demon Lilitu.
Signs/Symbols of Queen Lilith(some iâve personally experienced as well):
Snake imagery
Birds( robins, cardinals, blue jays, doves, owls or any corvid/black bird) Iâd like to mention that she left me a robin who had passed, cause she knew Iâd give it a proper burial.
Witnessing any of her other sacred animals (mentioned below) or frequently seeing imagery of them
Me and other devotees of hers have known her to send really animal thatâs black as signs
rose imagery
sudden interest in her
sudden yearning desire to explore oneself/identity
speaking up/ standing up for yourself in circumstances in which you normally wouldnât
for uterus owners; in my personal experience she had gotten terribly frustrated that i wasnât noticing her so she started affecting my âmoon cycleâ. I experienced irregularities, increased pain and moodiness. I also got much more fatigued during my time of the month in the time she was trying to get my attention. She may or may not feel the need to do something of this fashion to get your attention; My only assumption that she did so in my case is because I was extremely oblivious. However I highly implore you discuss things with your doctor before concluding that this is the cause.
You may notice the wind howling louder
Vampiric/Succubus imagery/energy
Draconic and/or primordial energy
Energy of water or the ocean
Feeling of not necessarily one certain element (maybe all of them together)
feelings of a motherly energy
dreams/visions of red or dark haired woman( iâve honestly had her appear to me as blonde). She may be a witch, possibly a queen. She could be protecting you during the experience ( if youâre on her good side ofc)
Sacred animals of Queen Lilith
Snakes
Dragons
Hyenas
Cats of various kinds ( domestic, wild, especially with black or dark coats)
Ostriches
Spiders
Unicorns
Owls
Goats
Bats
What does Queen Lilith specialize in? What can she help you with?
taking back your power
shadow work ( specifically the feminine side of the side)
tapping into/ welcoming your dark feminine energy
welcoming dark femme energy into your life
dark femme workings
defends women/femmes and children whoâve suffered abuse(especially s3xually)
Improving sexual relationships
asserting independence
support in women/womxnâs/femmes rights
fighting oppression/sexisim placed on women/fem identifying people by the patriarchy(or in general)
assistance in gaining respect and/or recognition for contributions
exploring/awakening sexuality (especially if you need assistance with you libido)
sex magic ( more specifically feminine dominance)
Assistance with menstrual magic/spells/rituals
Help in any women/female health issues ( menstrual issues, moods swings, feritility, MtF/FtM etc.)
( i recommend you be treated by a medical professional along with the last point; mundane before magical; magic/spirituality shouldnât be used in place of medical treatment, simply as support.)
Correspondences/ Offerings

Belladonna (POISONOUS)
Nightshade (POISONOUS)
Mugwort ( still use with caution)

Miscellaneous:
Empress (Tarot)
High Priestess (Tarot)
Moon ( Tarot)
Strength (Tarot)
Any Queen Card ( More Specifically to my UPG, Swords and Wands suits)
Air and Fire are her main elements. However, she does not limit herself to one specific element, she has traits of all.
Vampiric/Succubus energy
Draconic/Primordial Energy
What is she like?
To me, Lilith is very much like a mother. Im sure you could probably guess by how I addressed her in the beginning of this post( which I call her Mother Lilith for personal reasons). She very much holds the energy of a firm mother who cares very much for her children. Lilith is very much stern when she feels the need, but knows when you need her to be gentle. Many times she has been a source of comfort and encouragement for me. If you show her the decency and respect she deserves, she will give it to you in return. If she sees you as her child (or holds you dear in anyway) she will go to distant lengths to protect you or to show your abusers not to mess with you again ( at times on her own accord). There are times where she made things difficult for people who wronged me on her own(probably a lot more I donât know about). Mother Lilith is extremely supportive and will be there when needed, but she will not coddle you. She will not baby you. I see a lot of practitioners say â she wont hold your handâ thatâs true in a sense. Yes there are things you need to face alone, but a mother wont deny holding your hand if needed, she just wont do things for you. She will empower you to do things with independence. Lilith is definitely the kind of mentor to give you a rude wake up call when youâre not acting like yourself or doing things that wont benefit yourself or others. She is not afraid to be mean and wicked with you if need be.
Lilithâs energy generally feels airy and fiery. She carries herself regally and a sense of pride. Like iâve mentioned, she doesnât necessarily tie herself to one element, Iâve felt energy of all elements come from her, I assume this comes from her shapeshifting nature.

hello hello, i am here again to make a request, with the dormleader with a male reader who is the prince of their stories(like malleus with philip!reader and riddle with alice!reader) i just think it would be funny (and also bcs i haven't seen people do this so-)
TWST Dormleaders x Prince!Yuu
Dude this prompt has been stuck in my head I just haven't written it for whatever reason so I thank you for giving me an excuse to do so
đčRiddle Roseheartsđč
I love this dynamic omfg
Aliceâs immediate response to seeing Riddle is to look up, speak nicely, stop twiddling his fingers, point out his toes, curtsy, opens his mouth a little wider and exclaims âYES YOUR MAJESTY!â
Riddle is spooked at first but then goes âAt least SOMEONE knows the rulesâ
Alice is incredibly reckless due to intense curiosity
But everytime Riddle gets onto you, you look up at him and go âBut my queen, it was oh so curiousâ
Hearing your mid-atlantic accent he canât stay mad at you youâre just too sweetđ„ș
Youâve been through Wonderland once before so you at least know how to play their version of croquet and a couple of the rules
I feel like a couple of times Alice would purposely break the rules to get collared because heâs so interested in how it works
Alice is just a tad naive due to his curiosity in EVERYTHING so if Riddle and Alice are having tea time and a white rabbit passes by, Alice will chase it
Riddle only knows the story of the Queen of Hearts not Alice In Wonderland so this makes no sense to him
Imagine a very short person running after a rabbit in the fields with Riddle the Housewarden chasing them in his dorm uniformđ
I canât stop thinking of Alice with puffy blue dresses with ribbon decor, so cute I love
Alice and Chenya are immediate BFFS
Alice keeps calling him âCheshire Catâ which he doesnât get but heâs happy to go along with it
That scene when the Cheshire cat is distracting Alice from the Queen during a game of croquet but with Male! Alice, Chenya, and Riddle
Riddle keeps hearing small giggles behind him but he doesnât understand why
Alice introduces the Hearslaybul boys to the âPainting the roses redâ song
Itâs their anthem now
AND ALICE WOULD DEFINITELY SING GOLDEN AFTERNOON TO THE GARDEN FLOWERS YOU CANT CHANGE MY MIND
Alice is overall a very happy boy who drags Adeuce on adventures and gives his queen a heart attack but also kiss attacks
Heartslaybul has been a more joyous place with the arrival of Alice
đŠLeona KingscholarđŠ
IsnâtâŠ.. isnât the princeâŠ. cheka
He is
He is the prince
I donât know how to write this unless I break some moral codes which Iâm not feeling up to
Iâm sorry :,)
đAzul Ashengrottođ
Dude
This is everything
He would fall in love with Azul when he hears his singing voice
But of course in proper Little Mermaid fashion, Eric doesnât know who said voice belongs to
He goes around the school for days, asking if someone knows someone with âThe voice of an angelđ„șâ
This dude is a hopeless romantic who definitely believes in love at first sight (or song ig)
I think Jade catches on pretty quickly to who heâs talking about
He doesnât do anything for a while until he decides to tell Floyd, who on the contrary thinks it would be entertaining to very much do something about it
Cue a montage of them elaborately trying to get you to realize that the person youâre looking for is Azul but just narrowly missing
This includes the boat scene
Floyd actually did end up knocking the boat over bc he was bored
When Floydâs enthusiasm dies heâs just like âYo the person you were looking for is Azulâ
Eric: Finally the love of my life has come to međ„ș
Eric is very well versed in the ways of the sea considering he spent a lot of his life on it so he knows plenty about the sea life in Twisted Wonderland or is interested in learning
This means Azul would give him a water breathing potion so he can explore underwater
It takes a lot of convincing to get Azul to come with him since heâs still kind of insecure about his octopus form
But when Eric gives him the puppy dog eyes itâs game over
Heâs gushing all over Azul telling him how beautiful and majestic he is
Azul almost inks
He actually does when Eric squeezes the life out of him due to excitement
He just loves his octo bf so muchđ„č
But heâs still a prince so heâll spoil Azul with his princely manners
Will always pull out a chair for him, lead him in dancing, sword fight someone in his honor etc.
The tweels think itâs kind of pathetic how head over heels he is for Azul but Azul is just as enamored, just less showy about it
Discounts at the Monstro lounge is a given
There definitely was a time when Eric was knocked into the water and couldnât get back up so Azul had to dive in to save him
Romance
đ„łKalim Al-Asimđ„ł
This is super cute but Aladdin has no idea how to deal
Heâs dirt poor but he managed to land a partner thatâs filthy rich
I mean it wouldnât be the first time
But because of his upbringing that means that heâs become very perceptive of bad people
He probably warned Kalim before Jamilâs overblot, Kalim refused to believe him though because he was so convinced Jamil would never do anything to hurt him
He understood where he was coming from and wanted to say âYeah youâre probably rightâ but he knew it wasnât true
But he also knew Kalim wouldnât listen to him so his hands were kind of tied
But blah blah blah Jamilâs overblot happened, Aladdin saved the day fluffy stuff
Kalim loves Abu he just wants to give him a little squeeze
Abu is slippery though so he just feeds him food
Abu likes him a bunch because of this
On days where Kalim wants to take Aladdin for a magic carpet ride heâs like âBRO I GOT ONE TOOââOMG TWINSâ
Thereâs a lot of carpet races because of this
But on a night where Aladdin was feeling particularly romantic he serenaded him with âI can show you the worldâ
Kalim cried
The way that Kalim best shows affection is through material items since thatâs something he knows heâs good at
He throws a lot of expensive jewelry and clothes at Aladdin
Itâs not like Aladdin doesnât appreciate it but he doesnât need those things to be happy
All he needs is Kalim
When he tells him that, Kalim starts crying Part 2
Because of Aladdinâs tendency to swipe things he probably shouldnât this kind of gets him into trouble a bunch
That is if anyone could catch him
Just like his pal Abu heâs a slippery fellow
Kalim finds it endearing
đŠVil SchoenheitđŠ
No hate to The Prince but he has the personality of a thumb
Heâs only gotten two scenes in the movie and doesnât even have an official name
So Iâll just call him Prince ig
But Vil and Prince are kind of the perfect couple ngl
Vil thinks of himself as a Queen and who better for a Queen than a soon to be King?
Prince simps for Vil so hard
Like I donât know how to verbally express how much
He would die for Vil, he would kill for his Queen, every formal interaction he will get on one knee and kiss Vilâs hand, the power dynamic is kinda đ«Łđ„Ž
This just gives me âloyal puppy dog Prince x powerful âwill kill you if you touch himâ Queenâ
Of course Vil is like đ
Prince treats him like the Queen he knows he is and Vil is obsessed with the never ending attention
He reciprocates through giving him his full attention whenever he can
Even something as small as a peck on the cheek means everything to Prince
His Queenđł
With someone as low as a Princeđł
This cannot be possibleđł
But oh it is possible and Vil makes sure he knows that
He loves his loyal lover to the stars and back and he makes sure itâs known by always keeping a hand around his waist
Itâs less out of protection than it is possessiveness
But it makes Prince SWOON
Any person who dares argue his Queenâs beauty or strength he will fight
He sees this as saving his Queenâs time
If they canât take him they have no privilege to even try with Vil
this sounds like sebek omfg
Bridal carrying Vilđ„č
đźIdia Shroudđź
CRUSTY DISCORD MOD X ANCIENT GREEK HIMBO MY BELOVED
Thereâs just so much potential here my guys
Even more so if I went by real Ancient Greece that shit was crazy
But this is Disney so I wonât
Hercules knows NOTHING about half the crap that goes on in Twisted Wonderland
âWe must sacrifice the finest cattle in honor of the godsââLol cool letâs play minecraftââWhat craft is yours?â
I donât think Idia would have a lot of social anxiety around him after a bit
Heâs very knew to everything in Twisted Wonderland, he doesnât know how society or technology works, he doesnât know how to dress, etc. so for someone like Idia to take him under his wing he looks up to him as if he was almost a god (only in twisted wonderland ofc he donât disrespect the pantheon like that)
When Idia tells him of the story of Hades Hercules casually drops the âOh yeah I know, heâs my uncleâ
ââŠ.Bitch say sike rnâ
Tbh the interactions between your two worlds is very interesting in of itself
I mean itâs obvious twisted wonderland doesnât have âgodsâ. Worshipped oneâs absolutely but not in the way Earth does
And considering Greek Mythology is a very real thing on Earth but the concept of Hades at least exists in twst means that Greek Mythology exists there too
But they didnât have ancient Greece
This shit confusing Iâll just stop the existentialism right there
If he tells Idia about his world and origins thatâs kind of an existential bend for Idia lol
Like heâs learning that most of the things his dorm has/are involved in was specifically named after an assortment of stories in his partnerâs world?
Mind. Blown.
But also we canât forget the fact that lil ol Idia is deadass dating a DEMIGOD
I donât think that concept exists in twst but when he explains he like âOOOO BOYđłâ
A very muscular man who came through his mirror from a different dimension not only is related to one of the Great Seven but is also the son to a being that is essentially the ruler of their universe????
AND HE CHOSE HIM[Idia]?????
Hercules would use him as a weight while exercising and Idia has his switch out playin Animal Crossing or something
Any time Frisbee is played near them heâs actively shielding Idia
He canât risk anything after what happened to his (technically) brother Apollo
If you know, you know
đMalleus Draconiađ
This one would be so funny
Iâm positive Phillip knows who Maleficent is and her role in his âone true loveââs story
But imagine his surprise when heâs like âThe princess is sweet but the dragon fae thatâs similar to the person who tried to curse her is kindađłđâ
Heâs a hero who lived long enough to be with the villain
Being from the 14th century he knows just as much about modern things as Malleus does
Meaning Phillip is very suited towards his courting style
Phillip practicing fencing with Sebek or Silver is a must
Phillip desperately wants to see Malleusâ dragon form
Itâs not anything he hasnât seen before and he likes the idea of literally flying into battle with his bf
Phillip knows much about history and arts so Lilia and him get on swell
I think he can play many classical instruments, so he likes to serenade Malleus with a violin or piano
He would most definitely create a rendition of âOnce Upon A Dreamâ for him too
Being a 14th century person who was thrusted to a different dimension in the future, I think heâs really into theatre
Phillip brings Malleus to many plays
Phillip hears from friends Adeuce when dorm leader meetings are held which he relays to Malleus to ensure heâs not left out of important manners

I just had a thought that id like to share with you: imagine reader is a young lady training in the red keep and she would encounter larys in the gardens from time to time. One day larys shows her the roses, and teaches her to collect the moisture from among the petals with your finger so as to not let them droop of overwatering. She watches him do this slowly and gently, feeling heat stir in her core. Larys watches her reaction intently, standing incredibly close, knowing exactly what he's doing đč
AN: Hi, I hope you like it x
NSFW
Larys had been watching you for a while now under the pretence of keeping an eye on the Green Queen. It was what he told himself, as well but those dark eyes of his continued to move over your body. He hated how his heart seemingly skipped when you came closer; your delicate hand raising in a wave.
Larys only leaned onto his cane with his head resting on it whilst you only gracefully walked closer to him. âIt is a nice day, Lord Strong.â You whispered over to him before finally coming to a stop. âIt is..â Larys hummed; the shining sun forgotten about as he only stared at your beautiful form.
The dress you wore clung to you perfectly. It was enough that Larys had to force to look away from you. Your fingers slowly reached for the pretty, bright flowers in front of you as Larys began to name them for you. âHow did you learn all this?â You whispered out in pure curiosity as you turned your head.
âI read a lot.â Larys whispered as he looked up at you from under those lashes of his in a near picture of innocence. âYou will have to show me where these books are.â You hummed in interest. He only smiled to himself as he looked up at you once more before ducking his head again.
His shyness was endearing, you thought to yourself as your head ducked for a moment. Your cheeks are prettily flushing. âI saw you with the Queenâs sworn shield yesterday.â Larys finally spoke of what was on his mind. âOh, yes, he is helping me train.â You babbled out quite excitedly.
âTrain?â Larys hummed; his eyebrow raised in growing interest. That was not what he had been thinking. You only giggled at his expression whilst Larysâ hand had moved to the wet flowers now. âWhat are you doing?â You could not help but ask as you stepped closer to him; far too closer than you should.
His eyes sparkled in delight as he caught your attention. Attention that he desired to keep forever. âIt is so the flowers donât become too watered.â Larys whispered as his fingers moved with the flower petal between them. You could only watch in near awe with your soft, plump lips parted.
The water dropped from his fingers. âIt is never too good to be too wet, do you not think?â Larys whispered. âNo..â You whispered out, quite breathlessly. Not that you noticed as you only continued to stare. Larys noticed; he noticed everything. His dark eyes slowly moved down your chest; your soft, ample breasts moving with your quicker breathing.
âYou tryâŠgently..â Larys hummed and before you knew it his hand had reached your own and your heart skipped a beat. Your lips parted once more as you felt your stomach begin to tighten; heat pooling as well. âFeels funny.â You whispered as you copied what you had watched Larys do.Â
Your eyes still watched as the lord in front of you moved to the next flower; his fingers rubbing together. It was as if he was hypnotising you, you thought to yourself as your own movements matched him perfectly. âItâs peaceful.â You hummed and fought against the growing desire moving inside you.
~
Two of Larysâ fingers were stuffed inside your weeping pussy now that he had you against the wall of the empty corridor. His thumb slowly circled your clit as you moved to burrow in his neck. âHmm, it seems there is another flower that is too wet for her own good.â Larys purred into your ear.
His words had you whimpering as you stared at the man in front of you in shock. You had not suspected such things from such a man; not that you shared those thoughts. He curled them and found your spongy spot that had you gasping out in near delight. His desire filled eyes only watched you.
Oh, the games he was going to play with you, Larys thought to himself as his fingers slowly moved in and out of your soaked pussy. His palm hitting your clit with each move as he leaned closer; his nose brushing against your own. âLarysâŠâ You whimpered out breathlessly as the pleasure quickly moved through you.
Your soft, sweet breasts were bouncing after he had ripped your dress down. His hunger should have terrified you but you only grew more aroused; your soaked, fluttering walls clamped around his fingers. âFlowers wilt without being watered, but I do not think you need anymore?â He hummed; taunting still.
The sound of your wetness was echoing around the corridor now and he watched your cheeks flush like a pretty rose. âLarys..I..please.. â You hardly knew what you were begging for now as you locked eyes with him. Your soft breasts moved as your breathing only became more heavy with the intense pleasure.
You could feel your stomach tightening even more as you rested your head back. Larys followed and began to hotly mouth at your bare neck now. âOh godsâŠIâŠâ You rocked against his fingers now as your desire ripped through you with ease. Larys did not stop his movements as you squirted around his fingers.
Larys only chuckled as he watched you fall apart in front of him. He squeezed a third finger inside your already spasming pussy. âNoâŠLarys..I âŠâ You were babbling absolute nonsense now as your hand slowly moved down his chest. Your hand reached for his own to try and push him away.
âPlease..itâs too much..â You whimpered; your eyes rolling as Larys continued to fuck you through your orgasm with a second one easily rising through you. Larys only leaned closer and this time he passionately captured your soft lips. He caught you by surprise as you softly gasped; your lips parting.
His tongue greedily found your own now as he began to suck on yours. Larys moaned against your soft lips whilst his fingers only continued to tease you even more. The act taking your breath away as you completely melted for him.

a means of ensuring order. {đč}
Hi again! I capitalized on some free time (shocker) and tried my hand at writing an event from the beginning of Demigods from Nysa's POV! I think I like it??? So... great!
Anyways, enjoy!
Featuring:
Princess Nyséan (ny-SHAWN)
· âą ââ ٠†٠ââ ⹠·
(tag, DM, reply, or fill out this google form to be added/removed from taglists)
General taglist: @enchanted-lightning-aes @outpost51
The Romance of the Demigods taglist: @aalinaaaaaa @sarahlizziewrites @thecrookedwriterspath @inkspellangel @crystal-librarian @hallwriteblr @bluberimufim
The first time the Church tried to kill her, Nyséan did not know how to respond. So, she told no one, and went about her evening.
No one had ever before, to her knowledge, made an attempt on her life. NysĂ©an had long known that there was no great fondness for her among the peers of the realm. When her back was turned, they would call her things like âstandoffishâ and âcurtâ. This was no slander, for she rarely employed the pleasantries or the delicate tricks of speech required by one of her stationâdamn near the highest station in the realm. Naturally, popularity eluded her.
But this was not the offense for which she would be murdered.
From a plush chairâthe perch to which sheâd fled after that first sipâNysĂ©an eyed the cup of apple cider. It rested innocently on the tea table across the length of the drawing room. Candles burned ever lower in their sconces, and NysĂ©an did not take her eyes off the cup. The taste of the drink stained her tongue and her palateâfar too sweet. Something sinister and bitter lurked beneath the sugar.
Or, perhaps it was not at all so. Perhaps, in her vigilance, she had imagined the change in taste. Perhaps her recent conversation with the Archbishop had set her senses on edge.
But NysĂ©an devoted her scarce-given trust to her own intuition above all else. She performed the same routine nightlyâa stroll in the gardens, an hour in the library (after a concerned word from Father, she restricted herself in this regard), and, after dressing for bed, taking a sweet drink of the season in her drawing room while she composed, relaxed, or more likely, fretted. Without fail, it was so. So tonight, when the first taste of the cider had kissed her tongue and coated it with something so slightly different, she had spat it back into the cup without hesitation.
Now, hardly realizing, Nyséan pulled her knees up to her chest, letting the chair cradle her and her gown swaddle her in its volume. Her mind raced in tandem with her heartbeat. When she tried desperately to recall the past moon or so, her memory would yield only thoughts of the Archbishop, of Father, and, naturally, of the Hierophant.
· âą ââ ٠†٠ââ ⹠·
Father had summoned her just after Midsummer. The perfect opportunity, she thought, to convince him of the Churchâs ill guidance. It made her uneasy how, this year, the palace had only sparsely been decorated in the typical fashion, in the artisanal goods set out to please the Queen of the Earth, and the King of the Sky. NysĂ©an had not seen a single soul scattering family ashes, even. She wondered if the Earth and Sky took note. She wondered if they cared, anymore. It turned her stomach. The night before, she had witnessed a mere smattering of dances and fires, desperate to catch on in the heavy and solemn aura of the Church and its clergy.
Theyâd not mandated a thingânot by official means. Even so, NysĂ©an could feel the power of the Hostâs influence. It was evident in the way that the bonfires died shortly after sunset, in the way that the quiet singing and strumming of their priests took the place of the unabashed celebration of the peers, the servants, and other commonfolk. No true celebration of Midsummer. More and more of the nobility were electing to attend the sanctuaries instead, anyway.
The Church of the Sonnelic Host, those who held to the so-called New Wayâto them, the day was known as Second Apsidia. It was, like First Apsidia in the yearâs earliest moons, a time of contemplation in honor of their god-of-gods, the very sun in the Sky. Or, rather, the sun in the Stellar Stratum, for itâor âHeââwas much too great a god to be contained in something as small as the Sky. A scant three or four years ago, NysĂ©an recalled, the New Way faithful would hole themselves up in their sanctuaries and leave well enough alone. Now, it was simply not so.
Thusly had NysĂ©anâs thoughts had been clouded as she drifted through the ashen stone corridors of the royal palace.
Before turning a final corner, she was halted by her reflection in a tall, slender mirror hung upon the wall. Nestled among paintings large and small, landscapes and portraits, she beheld her own self.
Dark eyes were set amid twin clouds of pale skin that brushed over her temples, her cheekbones. Against her warm brown skin, the contrast was stark. Similar pearly nebulae crested above her neckline, along the span of her clavicle and her shoulders left unobscured by her gown.
Her spine straightened itself as her impassive eyes trailed lower. Behind her, the dark coils of her hair that swished and billowed when she walked now hovered still about her shoulders. Her soft hands, clasped together loosely in front of her, were more richly dappled by the pale skin than some other parts of her body. Past the second knuckle, her fingers were almost entirely without pigment.
âMoon-kissedâ was perhaps the kindest thing anyone had ever said of her. Anyone aside from Fatherâhe had long been her only ally.
But she could feel this changing more and more every day.
A pair of house guards stood attendant at the doorway to his antechamber, deep in the embrace of the keep. At her approach, they parted the doors without delay. Aside from his most longstanding and familiar servants, only two people were allowed anymore into the Kingâs rooms: his daughter, and his physician.
So, when NysĂ©an saw the Archbishop of the Host in her fatherâs sitting room, she was horrified.
The woman rose from her chair with a startling youthful fluidity. She was tall. A sheer curtain of hair the color of platinum parted at the middle to frame a white and smiling face. The hair shimmered as her ivory-colored robes did, flowing like water when she movedâand sometimes when she didnât.
The Archbishop curtseyed deeper than necessary for one of her standing. To Nyséan, it was yet another layer of grotesquerie.
âYour Highness.â The pale woman straightened to her full and eerie height. She looked rather like a bird, tilting its head to inspect something edible. âYou honor this servant with your audience.â
NysĂ©an felt her nails dig into the skin of her hand. Her response was quick, and clipped: âI came because my father called. No one told me that we would be joined by a guest.â
âYou wouldnât have come if I had,â rasped the King.
NysĂ©an turned her head with some reluctance to regard her father. Someone had helped him into his wheeled seatâNysĂ©an blessed the soul who had first devised such a contraptionâand he had positioned it across the sleek low table from the Archbishop. The brown of King Hasteorâs skin had faded even lighter in recent years, and fatigue seemed to burden his eyes no matter how long he rested in bed.
It did uncomfortable things to her stomach, seeing him so. She hadnât seen much of him at all, these past moons. And the less she saw of him, the more she dreaded laying eyes on him again. And the more her dread mounted, the more she found herself avoiding his presence. She hated herself for it.
Her father went on, in that voice that had dimmed as his illness had advanced: âActira, you must forgive the princess. Althoughââ He raised a hand, and gestured toward his daughter. âIâve not seen nearly this much expression on her face in years. You have my gratitude.â His upper lip, concealed by a beard barely graying, coaxed the rest of his face into a smile. Despite the humor in his mien, his directives brokered no argument. He pointed to a third seat, a sofa. âNysĂ©an. Sit.â
NysĂ©an realized that she had stopped dead at the threshold between the antechamber and the sitting room. A stilted gait carried her forward, one reluctant foot after another. Her eyes did not once stray from the Archbishopâs face. They hovered on the womanâs nose (dainty, small) and mouth (wide. Smile unending).
The instant Nyséan felt the seat cushion beneath her, the Archbishop was re-perching on her own chair. A ripple coursed down her robes, leaving subtle, cascading twinkles as it went.
âI will explain my intentions.â The Archbishop arranged her hands upon her lap in a manner most formal, but NysĂ©an espied a giddy anticipation in the way that they moved. Where her father was drained of energy, the Archbishop overflowed with it. âYour Highness is a woman of a great many virtues and admirable qualities, as you yourself must certainly be aware.â NysĂ©an was not aware. The woman went on anyway: âAnd your futureâthe future of the realmâwould of no doubt be chief among Your Highnessâs worries. This, of course, is the mark of a truly extraordinary ruler-to-beâwe subjects of the realm are terribly fortunateââ
NysĂ©an had stopped listening. âYouâre explaining nothing,â she said.
The Archbishop took in a breath to continueâshe had either been perfectly prepared for the princess to interrupt her, or she did not care at allâbut before she could speak, Father interjected.
âThe Hierophant.â The strength in her fatherâs voice surprised NysĂ©an, but it was quick to soften. It was as if he had cut in before realizing exactly what it was that he wanted to say. âTwenty-three⊠You are well of an age⊠The good Archbishop and I have been in talksâŠâ
NysĂ©anâs stare was blank.
Father finally found the words. âIt would be of great benefit to the realm,â he said, gently, âif you and the Sonnelic Hierophant were to wed.â
She waited, and said nothing.
He spoke the truth of the matter. âYou and the Hierophant will be betrothed.â
NysĂ©an blinked. âNo.â
The Archbishop leaned forward, her flowery, gushing language at the ready. âHis Radiance is amenable toââ
âNo.â
âNysĂ©anââ
âHe is enthusiastic to meetââ
âI said no!â The shout tore desperately out of her body, which jolted in its wake. The sound of it lanced like lightning through the quiet grace of the opulent sitting room. It was dizzying, the grave understanding that wrapped its slow and steady talons about her torso. NysĂ©an felt her breath shorten.
A delicate silence followed. NysĂ©anâs wide eyes were pointed downward, at her trembling hands. She did not look up at the King. She knew that she would only see him avoiding her gaze if she did.
The Archbishop was the first to speak again. Softly, as if consoling a small child or a frightened animal: âIf Your Highness would consider seeing him, speaking with him,â she said. âI believe you will find His Radiance most appealing.â
Ignoring her, NysĂ©an finally turned to the King with entreaty. âBut you saidââ
âNysĂ©an, the realmâŠâ His tone mirrored the Archbishopâs. She hated it. âBrennenhaugh is rapidly approaching unrestâOld Way, New WayâŠâ At this, NysĂ©an heard the Archbishop snort. âWhen I am gone, you will be without a means of ensuring order. I refuse to burden you with a kingdom in crisis. The good Archbishop graciously furnishes us with a solution.â
NysĂ©an heard beneath the Kingâs words a truth that he may or may not have intended: If people liked you more, it might not have come to this. Helplessly, she repeated herself: âBut you said.â
âMeet the young man, NysĂ©an.â
A sudden fury drove her off the sofa. Standing, NysĂ©an turned to regard the wispy Archbishop. She jabbed a finger in the womanâs direction. The interloper was unperturbed.
âKeep yourself and your faithful away from my father,â NysĂ©an hissed. âI wonât let you take advantage of him any more than you alreadyââ
âNysĂ©an!â The King must have exhausted much of his strength in the one bellow, for he deflated gradually as he spoke on: âMy wits are not gone just yet. This is a decision I make in sound mind.â Despite his diminishing volume, NysĂ©an could not mistake the resolve there.
She fixed her anger on him. âBefore, you would have been the first to say that itâs a fool who slights the Fae-Gods. What do you think this is?â
âThis is in your best interest. I need you to understand this. I thoughtââ He hesitated, and the last remnants of sternness in his voice were no more. âNysĂ©an, I thought I would have more time to set this kingdom right for you.â
She said nothing. She had no choiceâsomething too big for words was trying to fight its way into language. But it was in vain. It was all NysĂ©an could do to keep herself standing.
âThe Church holds more influence in the realm with every passing day. This is all that I can do for you, now.â
Her mouth hung open, desperate for the words to come. They did not. She shook her head.
Nyséan did not move again until the Archbishop spoke.
âAs I endeavored to mentionâŠâ Her voice might have soothed a thousand serpents. ââŠHis Radiance desires to arrange a meeting. You will find that he is nothing sort ofâŠâ
Nyséan stopped hearing the woman. The words were far away, taunting her.
Mute, she turned her back on the Archbishop, and the King, and left the sitting room.
Distantly, she could hear the woman speaking to him with urgency. The hurried shuffling of cloth, and the telltale tapping of shoes on sleek stone tiles followed behind.
âYour Highness!â
Nyséan did not stop moving through the antechamber, towards the outer doors that would release her back into the corridors of the keep. The Archbishop, on her long and presumably spindly legs, soon fell into step with her.
âHis Radiance has expressed to me that he wishes so ardently to meet you,â she said. âIâve watched over him since he was a babe, Your Highness. He will make a strong and loving husband.â The Archbishop leaned in then, as if the two of them were sharing a joke. NysĂ©an kept her eyes forward. âAnd he is quite handsomeââ
Pivoting on her heel, NysĂ©an whirled on the Archbishop. Words grew hot in her mouth, and she spat them at the woman. âTell your prophet Iâd sooner leap from a balconyâor slit my skinâor swallow poison than hand your Church the reins to my kingdom.â
The Archbishop receded coolly to her full height. Not once did her demeanor waver, but NysĂ©an sawâor perhaps appended to the memory upon reflectionâthe slightest tightening of the womanâs smile.
After a moment, the Archbishop dipped into another curtsey. âYour Highness.â She turned and walked serenely back the way she had come.
· âą ââ ٠†٠ââ ⹠·
It had not been NysĂ©anâs intention to give the Church any ideas.
Yet before her sat the fruit of their inspirationâa poisoned cup. A princess who should be dead.
She was eventually able to unfurl herself and approach the cider. Peering into it, it appeared perfectly normal. She leaned forward to sniff at it, then stopped herself abruptly. What sort of death had the Church designed for her? Would it have been gentle, as sleeping? A burning fever? Violent, bloody, choking agony?
There were a seemingly infinite abundance of rules by which NysĂ©an knew she, as princess of the realm, must abide. Many were enshrined in law. Many had been passed down to her through the Kingâs patient guidance. And still many more were the unspoken, the invisible, those which were just Known.
It was these that she so often failedâthese courteous tools, these sleights of the tongue. The more she grasped at them, the more they eluded her understanding. After a time, this ceased to frustrate her, and continued to frustrate everyone else.
But now, Nyséan found herself wondering whether or not a more thorough knowledge of these rules might have been useful, for she was beginning to realize that she did not know how to react in the wake of an assassination attempt.
First, she paced about the perimeter of her drawing room. This way and that, minute after minute after minute.
Next, she opened the door that led back into the keep. A house guard stood at attention on either side of the doorway, as was typical. For the first time, Nyséan eyed their faces. If they paid her any mind, they did not show it. She soon retreated.
Then, she took the cup in trembling hand and flung the cider out a window.
And, well, after that, what more could be done? Had she drank the poison and died, it was perfectly reasonable that no one would find her until morningâs light. She could see little point in disrupting the remainder of her nighttime routine.
NysĂ©an returned to her original seatâher desk chair. By waning candlelight, she continued to write, and pretended to be dead for a while.

I absolutely love the female riddle in the remarried empress but can I please get a second part but just the unbirtday pary.
đčLike the riddle mc thx navier for the roses Garden and ask her if she can trow a unbirtday party for navier because of her failed birthday and navier saying yes curious what a unbirtday party is.
đčLater on riddle mc ask navier to invite only the people she is close with it doesn't matter male or female if they are her friends or family they can come but only in the colour red of course.
đčThe riddle mc made a dress specialy made for navier that makes her look like the queen of hearts.
đčHow would navier react to riddle mc giving her the dress saying that she made it made for her because she is her second role model and that she is the only person worth waiting clothes like that would fit the queen of hearts .
đčImagen the day of the unbirtday pary and every one arrives to a beautiful party perfectly decorated (because riddle mc doesn't want sutch and important pary to be subpar especially when navier is dressed as the queen of hearts )
đčand everyone being shocked about it they found it at first silly the thought of a unbirtday party but later on asking riddle mc if she could maby do more parties like that one and next day the party becomes the talk of the eastern empire.
đčHow would everyone react to playing crocket with coloured flamingos and hedgehogs (they are okay with it and don't get hurt of course because of riddle mc her magic )
đčHeinley being uncomfortable with playing sports with the flamingos but him being the flamingo magnet they love heinley for some reason and won't leave him alone navier laughing about it.
đčRattrash of course wanting to be in the party but gets denied to enter also sovieshit isn't invited because riddle mc told him it a day for navier and that her birthday was ruined.
đčImagen navier her family being invited and kosiar being hart eyes for the riddle mc and complimenting her for throwing a party for navier and navier and her parents loving the idea of them together.
đčLater on when the sweets come out on the table everyone's is having a good time sipping tea eating strawberry tart seing navier dress so beautifully and the riddle mc keeping a eye open for the party to be perfect.
đčHow would everyone react to navier her dress and navier telling that riddle mc made for her even her ladies in waiting where shocked to see navier get sutch a beautiful dress.
This in a sea of red clothing whoud make navier stand out
This is literally such a cute idea. In the events of the storyline, this would happen after the rest of Heartslabyul are all teleported with you. I just love doing requests out of order, apparently.
Sovieshu
He had seen all of the servants running about, as well as your friends from Twisted Wonderland. They were gathering a bunch of items that seemed to be for a tea party, and when he stopped one of them to ask they responded that you were throwing an unbirthday party in the honor of the Empress. However, the fabrics and such were mismatched, with gold, black-and-white checkered patterns, and red.Â
Being a bit curious, he summoned you to his office to ask what exactly an unbirthday party was. You explained that it was a tradition from your homeland, and that you had received Navierâs permission to throw one. However, upon asking for an invitation, you responded that Her Imperial Majesty would be in charge of the guest list and not you. The only thing you had done was design the cards and plan the rest of it.
However, on the day of, he saw you escorting his wife to the tea party. You both were dressed very fancily and⊠you both looked beautiful in the most wonderlandish way. Rashta had her arm wrapped around his as she begged you to make them let her into the party, but he stated that he had no influence over Navierâs decision to not invite either him or his mistress.
After the party, you did give some tarts and sweets that had not been touched to both him and Rashta for them to have a taste of your home, and Sovieshu did enjoy the strawberry tart. Maybe this was an olive branch that you were reaching out to him? But, upon seeing you kiss Kosair upon the cheek before he left the palace, it was merely a peace offering rather than something more.
Rashta
She was also very curious about why all of your friends were rushing about and getting different desserts to a certain place and other servants were rushing about gathering table cloths and fine china sets. She asked her handmaiden what was going on, and she went out to ask said servants about the event they were preparing for. She came back and said that a tea party was being hosted by you in Navierâs honor, and that a few nobles would be attending.
This scared the mistress, as she thought this might be some ploy against her. However, it just seemed as though you were missing having a bit of control and thus desired to plan a tea party. Then came your angry shouts from outside, yelling at a servant for trying to bring a chestnut tart to the table, and it shocked Rashta. You followed exceedingly strict rules.
Eventually, she finally found the time to speak with you, and you couldnât just brush her off as you typically did. No, it was concerning her getting an invitation, and you had said that no question was a stupid question; the only thing that is stupid is the person who asked. So, you explained that the invitations were already sent out and received and that Navier had the reins when it came to the guest list. However, she and Sovieshu were not invited at all.
After the party, you had presented her with a strawberry tart that was handmade by both you and your friend Trey. It surprised her, but the baby in her womb was very excited to try it out. She worried that it might be poisoned, so she had her handmaiden try a bite of it first. Once she came out alright, she took a bite and reveled in the sweetness of the dessert. Maybe⊠you werenât an enemy?
Navier
When you came to her excited about the prospect of having an unbirthday party in her favor, she was definitely wanting to know what an unbirthday was. But, she did approve of it, and asked if you would like any help organizing the party. You refused, telling her that it was in her honor and thus the only thing she needed to do was write down the guests she wanted to attend and you would cover the invitations themselves.
She asked if you had a theme in mind so that she could dress accordingly, but you stated that you had made a dress for her with the assistance of the rest of her ladies-in-waiting. You wheeled it in on a mannequin and it was absolutely beautiful, but a bit excessive. You showed her your outfit, and she came to understand that unbirthdays were typically very formal and dressy events. On the invitations, you made sure to point out that it would do good to wear your most formal black, red, or gold attire.
Well, everyone seemed to be enjoying the delicious tea and treats that were prepared, and a lot of the noble women were admiring Navierâs gown. Then, the croquet game started, and they wheeled in the Wonderland Flamingos as well as the hedgehogs. A few of the birds flocked up to Heinrey out of nowhere, freaking the prince out as they seemed to rub their necks against him. The Empress giggled in amusement before you snapped and commanded the brightly-colored birds back to the game.
If you were to ask Navier, though⊠her favorite part was seeing her older brother look at you the same way that Heinrey looks at her. Mr and Mrs. Trovi even whispered in her ear during the game that you both would make an excellent couple, and she couldnât help but agree. She watched you two from behind the teacup that she was sipping from as you kneeled down to one of the hedgehogs, and you were teaching Kosair how to properly pet it.
Heinrey
He was on Navierâs guest list, so he had received an invitation. Of course, he also received the message to wear something very dressy in either black, red, or gold. There was a postscript at the end telling him that Navier was wearing white, and he was more than welcome to match her in his outfit. When I tell you that this man was so excited about seeing her again, I mean it. He pulled a 2000âs dress montage where he holds up different outfits to his chest in the mirror and shakes his head before settling on one of them after consulting McKenna.
The garden was definitely bustling with people, and he tried to find you. Trey explained that you were helping Her Imperial Majesty get ready for the unbirthday party, when you and Navier walked in. Him and Kosair just stared in absolute awe as you and the Empress walked in with your red and white gowns (respectively). The Crowned Prince sat next to the Empress while you sat next to the Trovi son.
Once everyone was full of tea and sweets, the croquet game had commenced. However, instead of typical mallets, you used⊠flamingos? They started flocking up to Heinrey and he started panicking. It was embarrassing to be the object of the birdsâ affection; that was, until you shouted commands and told them to get back in their place. Your face held a stern and unmoving strictness, and it sent a chill down everyoneâs spine.
Sometime during the unbirthday party, Navier had her arm in his as she leaned in to tell him to look at you and Kosair. The man was staring at you with hearts in his eyes, much like he did with Navier. Heinrey leaned in and said that her brother had the same love in his heart for you as he himself harbored for her, and this made her a bit flustered.Â
Kosair
This is the man weâve all been waiting for, letâs be honest. He was invited to Navierâs unbirthday party, and he was definitely confused as to what that was. However, he dressed accordingly and was definitely excited to see his sister again. But, most importantly, he was very excited to see you. His parents actually had to calm him down from just running from the Trovi Manor to the Imperial Palace.
Both him and Heinrey were looking for you and Navier once they arrived. No one knew where they were until Trey had told them that you two were getting ready. That was when you had announced to everyone that the Empress was here. You walked arm-in-arm with her, and Kosairâs jaw dropped upon seeing you in the red gown. He only saw his sisterâs gown once he was done staring at you. You greeted him with a smile and a kiss on the cheek before leading him to your seats.
After your meal, you guided everyone to the croquet field. You explained the Twisted Wonderland tradition that hails from the Queendom of Roses, and you told them that the mallets that you would be using were some brightly colored flamingos that came from your land, and the ball would be a small hedgehog. But, all of the flamingos suddenly started flocking up to Prince Heinrey. Laughter erupted from everyone but you and Kosair, who was trying to calm your anger. You shouted a command to the âfeather-brained birdsâ in their own freaking language and they stood upright before you told them to go back to their places. You were amazing.
Throughout the entirety of the unbirthday party, the two of you stuck together with your arm in his. A lot of the noble couples had complimented you about how good of a pair you both made and how you would be a good member within the Trovi family. The comment made you both blush, especially when it came from his own parents. Before he left, you gave him a kiss on his cheek and watched him enter the carriage and leave. You went back to Navierâs chamber and let out a lovesick sigh that she heard, and she smiled upon seeing her best friend this way.

YumiHisu // Modern setting // Band AU
"Historia 'the Queen' Reiss comes out!"
The front-page headline of the Trost Times Valentine's Day issue hit her fans like a punch. After years avoiding the subject of her love life, hiding from paparazzi, dodging nosy journalists, the famous Paradis Devils lead singer finally announced that she was in love. With a girl.
The band was formed in high school by Eren Jaeger & his friends Jean Kirstein, Connie Springer & Marco Bodt. After a few disappointing concerts in seedy bars around Shiganshina, the group decided to find a female singer to boost their audience.
Historia Reiss was not only the Maria High School goddess, but she sang like an angel. The boys convinced her to be their new singer & their muse. Her looks, her voice, her charisma quickly drew a crazy amount of new admirers, worshippers driven insane by the slightest appearances of their revered 'Queen'.
From this moment on, the Paradis Devils soon became one of the most popular bands on the island, following No Name close in the charts. They played sold-out dates all around the country & beyond the walls.
Inevitably, paparazzi started to hunt them down. Their fans became more & more passionate about their private lives, discussing theories on social media. Their chemistry on stage was so obvious that most fans thought Eren & 'the Queen' were a couple, which none of them confirmed or denied, rather playing with the ambiguity of their relationship every time they were seen in public.
When Marco quit the band, he was replaced by the Titans' former drummer Ymir.
Saying that Historia & Ymir's first interactions didn't go well is an understatement. Too used to being worshipped, 'the Queen' obviously couldn't stand the other girl's stand-offish, quizzical demeanour.
In spite of all her sugar-coated words & outgoing behaviour, Historia couldn't wipe the infuriating smirk off Ymir's face. Not to mention the way she looked at her, a look that bore into her very soul, as if she knew about the dark truth behind the happy mask.
Ymir's aloof personality, her cynical take on life, her whole behaviour was an intriguing, appealing mystery to the young singer. Not being able to wrap the freckled girl around her little finger pissed Historia off more than she would admit, thus increasing her interest in the musician.
The band was now more famous than ever. Being on tour most of the time, living close together, away from family or loved ones, tensions rose between them all. Fame was taking a toll on the band. As the Paradis Devils' figurehead, Historia was deeply affected by the pressure of stardom & isolated herself more & more everyday, locked in her hotel room or wandering the streets at night, slowly sliding into sadness.
One night, after an exhausting concert abroad, loneliness hit Historia hard. As the others loudly enjoyed an afterparty with a few friends by the pool, she was sitting alone on a remote bench, hoping the starry sky, the chirping of crickets or the rose garden scent would help her forget the void she felt inside.
She startled to the tinkling noise next to her. Against all odds, Ymir had left the party with a bottle of champagne & two crystal glasses to join her. As the night & the conversation between the girls went on, Historia was amazed by how deeply Ymir understood her inner turmoils & how kind she could be. For the first time in her life, Historia forgot her loneliness & felt alive, finally.
In the dead of night, here in the quiet, secluded garden, they shared their first kiss under the stars.
