Πόλεμος πάντων μὲν πατήρ ἐστι, πάντων δὲ βασιλεύς, καὶ τοὺς μὲν θεοὺς ἔδειξε τοὺς δὲ ἀνθρώπους, τοὺς μὲν δούλους ἐποίησε τοὺς δὲ ἐλευθέρους.
La guerra es el padre y rey de todas las cosas; a unos los muestra como dioses y a otros como hombres, a unos los hace esclavos y a otros libres.
Heráclito de Efeso
Fr. 53, Hipólito, Ref. IX 9, 4

grim and yuu in year 4
Because Yuu and Grim come as a 2-in-1 deal (with Grim doing all of their assignments that require magic), it occurs to me that Yuu would be SO fucked with their schoolwork if anything happens to Grim. And Grim needs Yuu to keep him under control— This is particularly true in the later school years, as first year classes focus on theory and transition into requiring actual magic use in the upper level classes. This is, of course, assuming that assuming that Yuu stays in Twisted Wonderland and continues their education at NRC.
So… what does that mean for the fourth year internship that is a prerequisite to graduate?? Yuu cannot complete a magic internship on their own, and it doesn’t make sense if only one of the pair can formally graduate. Does Yuu have to follow Grim wherever he decides to go?? Together forever… (There are fan theories about Yuu and/or Grim becoming the new Ramshackle dorm leader + vice or even the new headmaster, which might be an… interesting avenue to take for an internship 🤔)
One idea I think could be neat (if not corny) is Yuu doing a cumulative project instead of an internship. (This way, Yuu is actually doing some kind of active work in addition to babysitting Grim at his own internship.) They could submit a photo album of all the pictures they took with the Ghost Camera. Three years of good and bad times, documenting how Yuu and their peers have changed over that time…
“What’s this?” Crowley will ask, looking confused at the thickness of the tome. What would possible be contained within its pages?
“This is the summation of everything I’ve learned at Night Raven College. My thesis,” Yuu states plainly, “on the magic of friendship. Take it or leave it.”

As promised here's my version of Crowley in my Raven!AU. He still has his angel name: Baraqiel
- He watched the Good Place and got excited at the idea of swearing without really swearing lmao
- Bends the rules a bit and is convinced he's a better angel than "those corporate fools"
- Calls Aziraüm "Raven" as a pet name
- He likes to do good but is petty when giving humans lessons for "their own good"
More of this AU here

τὸν εὐθυμεῖσθαι μέλλοντα χρὴ μὴ πολλὰ πρήσσειν, μήτε ἰδίηι μήτε ξυνῆι, μηδὲ ἅσσ᾿ ἂν πράσσηι, ὑπέρ τε δύναμιν αἱρεῖσθαι τὴν ἑωυτοῦ καὶ φύσιν· ἀλλὰ τοσαύτην ἔχειν υλακήν, ὥστε καὶ τῆς τύχης ἐπιβαλλούσης καὶ ἐς τὸ πλέον ὑπηγεομένης τῶι δοκεῖν, ατατίθεσθαι, καὶ μὴ πλέω προσάπτεσθαι τῶν δυνατῶν. ἡ γὰρ εὐογκίη ἀσφαλέστερον τῆς εγαλογκίης.
Preciso es que quien quiera tener buen ánimo no sea activo en demasía, ni privada ni públicamente, ni que emprenda acciones superiores a su capacidad natural. Debe, más bien, tener una precaución tal que, aunque el azar le impulse a más, lo rechace en su decisión y no acometa más de lo que es capaz, pues la carga adecuada es más segura que la grande.

I need a crow to my wolf. I need a raven to follow closely behind me as a companion. Who will caw and croak me lullabies after a long day's hunt and when both our bellies are full. Someone be my crow pls.

Short Story Tournament
THE RAVEN by Edgar Allen Poe (1845) (link)
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore— While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
HOMECOMING IS JUST ANOTHER WORD FOR THE SUBLIMATION OF THE SELF by Isabel J. Kim (2012) (link) - tw: death
A border is an artificial thing with practical consequences: the severing of the self from the self.
