Moving on: Afterlife
Warning: Female Yuu/Reader, Angst, Death, Blood
The Prefect of Ramshackle died but remained in Ramshackle as a ghost.
Her ghastly form phased through the creaking walls of the Ramshackle mansion, noticing the dust accumulated under her absence before halting at the sight of her bedroom.
The mattress remained untouched yet kept in pristine condition, her desk filled with books in the same condition even after she left. From the corner of her eyes, spider webs have already begun nesting their home on the corner of the walls.
"We will always be here Prefect," a puff of smoke appeared behind her as the three ghost appeared.
Their gaze softened while the taller one let out a sad smile. The once Prefect they once knew turned no more than their fellow kin from an unfortunate tragedy.
And that tragedy happened at the Ramshackle Manor.
Engulfing Grim in rage, his blot hasten from negative energy. Being the only one in the Ramshackle manor other than the three ghost, Y/N quickly perished on the scene. Grim's speed is faster than any overblot they faced.
When Dormleaders, Staffs and students arrived at the scene. Ace and Deuce quickly sprinted to the fallen Prefect lying in their pool of blood. Ace craddling her to his chest while Deuce sobbed at her lifeless body, they quickly despaired and hunted Grim for revenge.
Crewel assessed her injuries but deemed her dead on the spot.
"Prefect?" The chubby one called, Staring worriedly at Y/N who blankly stared at the couch in the lounge.
Ace and Deuce quickly spotted Grim from the hall of Mirrors, ragely firing their magic at the beast.
"Did you know what you DONE?!" Ace screamed in pain, firing his wind magic. "Did you know what fid you do to Y/N?!"
Gtim merely growled at the hostility from the heart soldier, bearing no heed to his surroundings and fire his blue flame.
"Grim! Come back!" Deuce sobbed, he knew Y/N wanted no more than Grim being safe and taken care of. Bringing him back will make ease her worries even if she perished.
They both knew the Ramshackle Prefect treasured Grim like no other, And they too shared the same sentiment. But.
"Grim you coward!" Ace thrashed from Trey's hold, and was aided by Cater's clones while they held him back. "You killed Y/N!"
"Hey," Y/N softly spoke, not tearing her gaze from the carpet while floating in the air. "Did you know I once imagined myself dying under one of the overblots?"
"Prefect..." The three ghost glances at each other wordlessly, they phased behind her as they placed their hand on her shoulder.
"I did die from overblot but, not like this," Her half-lid eyes pondered, letting out a crude smile. "I forgive him you know, I wanted him to suceed even without me being there,"
Grim returned to his normal state, but the price was greater than they imagined. Ace punched Grim to pulp, his fury held no bounds and held back again but this time it was Leona who held him back.
Grim bolted to the Ramshackle dorm, Seeing the bloodied interior and his Prefect unmoving state. He quickly realised his actions and his ears furled.
"Y/N..." He sobbed, his cries echoed while the three ghost could only watch while crying.
The pain of not being able to help as guilt ridden to their souls.
"It's not his fault," Y/N's tears fell, biting their lips to stop sobbing. "I'm sorry for not protecting you well,"
I'm sorry for not stopping your overblot even if I knew you'll be in such state.
Y/N dreamt the beast, blue flames bursting around his neck and ears. Intricate lines of blot on his face and sharp claws itching to hunt. Wings sprouted from his back and octopus arms grabbing things to throw.
"I'm sorry Ace, Deuce," Y/N promised them she would come to their homeland. Living with them till the end of their lives.
"I'm sorry Ace," Y/N and Ace planned to date at his hometown. Already informing the Headmaster to their vacation with Ace secretly wanted Y/N to meet his family.
A knock came at her door, snapping out of the three ghost trance before they flew to the door. The door opened revealing a bright orange hair and scarlet eyes glancing at the three ghost in acknowledgement.
"Good Morning Ace," They greeted but only got a nod in response.
The heart soldier wandered at hall and paused, turning his attention to the portrait on the wall. The Prefect's e/c shining brightly and her smile felt eerily similar to the deceased Y/N. She wore the Ramshackle Uniform with Grim on her lap, smirking from the attention.
"The headmaster drew the painting himself," the thin ghost spoke, Noticing Ace intently staring at the portrait. "Wanting to preserved Y/N's memory,"
"That rascal doesn't deserve to be there," He snorted, but made no attempt to move from his spot.
His actions go noticed from the three, Ace is notorious at destroying Grim's things or at least anything that reminds him of Grim. Be it his pictures, lab potions that Grim often mixed up, and blue flame.
"Ace," Y/N phased by his side, Already expecting his presence.
But unlike the three ghost, Ace couldn't see or hear Y/N's ghost. Nor anyone who visit the Ramshackle manor couldn't see or hear the Prefect. The three ghost wanted to tell the students and yet bubbles formulated whenever they wished to tell them. Be it discreetly or indiscreet.
Throughout Ace's years in NRC, he often wandered around the Ramshackle dorm. Be it from amusement or wanting to be alone.
Y/N could only watch and phased to his side, listening to his woes and pleas for her to come back.
"But I'm here," She whispered, staring at Ace's sleeping form on the couch.
And yet, Y/N could feel Ace changed.
Y/N could see him smiling, back to his old card tricks, even laughing. Slowly returning to his old self. Y/N felt pleased to see Ace recovering from her passing. The first year who was wrecked from her death already move forward. They still visited for a few but they already move on to their lives.
"My, time already passed so much. To think Ace became a Dorm Leader," One of the ghost praised, catching Y/N's attention.
"With Deuce second in command, ahh I could already see the upcoming chaos from around here," the other chimed, already preparing a present to Ace.
Ace rarely visit the Ramshackle Manor, but all of them prepared their gifts in case he visited.
But the day only came after Ace and Deuce graduation, it was only for a brief moment before they left.
Y/N watched from afar, peering from the window. Fingertips touching the glass while her lips let out a forced smile.
"Congratulations, everyone," Her head rest on the glass while her form slowly dissipated, leaving a feint of glow at her wake.

Motherhen Ace
For: @somany-fandoms-solittle-time
Insults his friends for not eating and insults them even more if he sees them lacking in certain foods. For example if he sees Jack eating very little veg he acts pitiful and reassures Jack it's okay to have the pallet of a 5 year old. This manages to get Jack to his 5 a day and have something more than just protein shake and steak. Leona is grateful because he can now finally give his unawnted veg to someone else.
If Seben acts too loud Ace reminds him of the fact that most fairies prefer the quite because they can actually relax witj9ut being startled every 5 minutes. He says this within the vicinity of Malleus who nods absentmindedly. It gets Sebek to be quiet whenever he notices that there's a fae in his class. Ace is just grateful that whoever he has Sebek in his classes there's also fae in it as well
Whenever he sees Epel being picky about girly things he purposefully wears leather miniskirts around him to see what he has to say. Safe enough it now causes Epel to also focus on building his thigh muscles so they can look as great as Ace's. Vil can't tell if this is a good development or not
Whenever he sees Deuce struggle with studying he'll turn their studying session into a game. He steals Deuces flashcards and doesn't give them back until Deuce has memorised each one.
He gets Grim to expand his fish pallet to more than just tuna and food of the floor. Safe enough that it cost more money but it's also caused Gtim to have a shinier coat and have stronger bones and muscles
Whenever he sees Yuu struggling with something he calls them an idiot and hugs them. He pretends not to notice the tears and the shoulders shaking, just letting the other sob their heart out
Whenever he sees someone else insult his friends he waits a couple of weeks before using wind magic to mess around with them. He trips them up, steals away their notes or gets them to embarass themselves in front of everyone
He's made himself Ortho's unofficial caretaker and has taken it upon himself to teach him more about humans and their customs. Its had the side effect of Idia getting jealous of him and competing with him.
He makes sure he packs extra snacks and money in his bag because he knows his friends are forgetful and most likely will forget their heads if they weren't attached to their shoulder.
He forces them to stop overworking themselves by insulting them and gently dragging them to their dorms. They're too focused on trying to counteract his insults that it doesn't register to them that he's trying to care for them in his own Ace way.
Once spent two nights straight helping Deuce with his revision notes.
Spots the others whenever they work out
He calmly sits and nods along whenever Epel is dragging Vil. Whenever Epel does this he takes the opportunity to do his nails
Always practices his magic tricks on them because they always gets wide eyed and exited whenever they see them

Up until now, Cherry has been the oldest Grimwalker, right? The supportive elder brother to the other Grims?
Is Petro going to try to take that "title" from him once he's less... murdery? Like, become determined to be the brother everyone comes to? Since you know, he might see Cherry as like, the "leader" of the Gtims and he's used to being in-charge.
Cherry kicked Petro's ass in his own mindscape while Petro had a hostage. Petro's not challenging Cherry, lmao.
Joking aside, no, not really. If he ever becomes less hostile, he STILL won't want to be relied on, not like that. Cherry's role is partly kind of administrative, yes, and Petro might be interested in that aspect. But people coming to him with [shudder] feelings and... problems... no. Cherry can HAVE that, Petro does not want these brats hanging on him. Sitting on the rooftop with Jason on his deathday to keep him company? Absolutely not. Call him if you have an enemy you need smiting.
