So, I have this weird memory from playing the original Kingdom Hearts on my PS2 a long time ago. I remember at some point seeing the zombie band from the movie in the entrance area standing along the wall on the left, playing their instruments. I'm not sure if I could interact with them, but they only appeared at a certain point, I guess after I completed a certain task, kinda like the little shopkeeper guy in Agrabah only appearing for a brief window under certain conditions. I've tried recreating the conditions to get them to reappear, continuously going back to the world entrance after completing certain plot points, but I couldn't figure out what I did to make them appear.
Does anybody else remember this happening, or did my brain just conjure up a false memory? This has been driving me nuts for years! lol

⚓︎ MASTER POST ⁏ TWST ocs, RSA, +
Bom dia! I realized now that I can pin posts:-) so I’m going to get all the major resources on my world building and the sort out of the way now instead of later. This is a lot of content … I’m so sorry.
★ CONTENTS — reference sheets [14/14], document links [all, though some incomplete], and an explanation of the setting (most) things correspond in. In this order…depending on how tumblr formatting works with me.
🐟⁀ Ref. sheets, ocs.
!! Yes, the proper images are in the documents as well. These are of hard to see, I’m sure. In the documents, there will be proper information on each. I’d share the full references here and now if it weren’t for the image limit on posts! I’m sorry.
*these are not drawn to height accuracy/scale.
— I think a fun note to add on this as a treat is that not everybody is based on Disney media…I thought that was a little too restrictive since I didn’t grow up on Disney (minus the Nightmare before Christmas), so … hooray!
🐋⁎⁺ Documents.
This section will be pretty straightforward and short, as well.
!! Link → short description of link contents → complete or not.
GENERAL INFORMATION — all character reference sheets, basic info, a master document to take you to anything else if you need. Minor details such as voice claims / themes + coffin / diamond icons can be found here. — TBC
SIGNATURE SPELLS — all signature spells and their uses are here. — TBC
UNIVERSAL INFO — general knowledge and information on the dorms I’ve made for Royal sword Academy will go here. This document is a little bare, though in it you can access the visuals Google slide. — TBC
★bonus : VISUALS — every drawing for the RSA dorms that I’ve done including staff, uniforms, statues, magestone holders, etcetera. This is the furthest from complete out of all of them, and will also likely be the slowest to update. — TBC
🐚┄⵿⃛𐄙⊱ Overview.
So, finally. What is really going on here? I figured I’d save the longest part of the post for last. All in all, this is still Twisted Wonderland as its canon stands, only with more development on RSA. By that I mean these characters coexist at the same time as our canon cast, so..a Pomefiore character of mine like Sergei would never be housewarden or vice for example, since Rook and Vil are the current dorm leads. Contrarily, I’ve been developing dorms and a visual to flesh out Royal sword Academy instead, as a treat. It was so barebones on the bottom of the island that I kind of took a pity towards it, put my hatred towards Neige aside, and started to develop the dorms, etcetera. I’ve had some help from my friends Cater and Azul, and plenty of school friends tend to help with uniform design and feedback / advice, so it’s definitely not a project I work without tips on, though all the art is mine. I don’t think I’d have gotten this far without them.
TLDR; All of my characters exist in the same timeline as the main cast. They don’t necessarily overlap in story much, and I have my own characters lives simply coexisting in the same world, that’s all. I kind of scrapped Neige & Chenya for this … and don’t plan on adding them back … but that’s fine. This is a personal project for myself and my friends that I’ll be slowly chipping at in time, I’m not too sure what else to say about it! I’ll enable questions if anyone has them, but feel free to comment any inquiries as well.
!! EXTRA🫧
— Story wise, settings don’t include much beyond Sages island, minus the dorms (which will be in the visuals link soon). But there is one Fanon town I made, of which a chunk of my characters derive of. I coined it Hallow Village, (or what tourists call Pumpkin Valley), as a blaring nod to TNMBC. You’ll see that a handful of ocs have Hallow Village as their homeland! I’ll have art on it soon. For now, it’s an old village with small town “southern hospitality” of sorts, with a smaller population, though notorious for becoming a tourist sensation during October. Adjacent the true film, the village is run by a mayor (though more so his son…Jack in the film). I like to think the town was once Halloween town, though the monster populous slowly died out as outsiders moved in and carried stigma. Given blot monsters, and the sort. Human + monster tension caused divide until most of all the ghouls themselves left. Modern residents aren’t so proud of that history, and hold a respect towards monsters now. (In other words, Grimm would have a fan club if they were canon). A lot of the residents are equally passionate for Halloween & October since it’s cultural to the town history, so a lot of them end up in Nightingshire if attending RSA. That’s the only outsider location I’ve got! All the actual dorm info is in the documents, I won’t divulge here.

Blot Elassia. / 𝘉𝘭𝘰𝘵 𝘌𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘢. As of current, the only oc I have with BE is Sergei. But what is it?
✶ Elassia — noun — “E-LAE-shia” · Specifically in regards to a mages magic pool, something within is functioning below the standard level. (I.e, too slowly).
Hence, Blot Elassia is an uncommon, though genetic disability that results in a mages ability to burn blot being far slower than what is necessary. This slower build and more constant slow-burn results in chest pain and chronic fatigue, which worsens with increased activity and magic use, and will subside with less of the aforementioned instigators. Excessive activity and magic use may hinder those with B.E and leave them physically unable to function as able bodied people would, until their symptoms flaring up manage to subside through proper care and aid. With age, especially, walking / mobility aids are advised for those to preserve their energy. Their bodies are utilizing every bit of the energy they have to burn blot.
Individuals with B.E are more highly susceptible to overblot.
Rest and maintenance of normal needs is helpful, but not a cure. To stop using magic entirely will slow the exhaustion of the mages body extensively, and is commonly recommend for those who decline medical aid. Alternatively, there is medication to help boost the magic pools ability to burn blot (also not a cure). The only known, official “cure,” is surgical treatment to the magic pool. This surgery has a high risk rate, and problems could potentially resurface.
FIN (?)
*(If anything else major gets added that “fin” will be a massive lie and there will be ANOTHER major block of text.)

a weird thing: so fall out boy has definitely covered 'what's this?' from the nightmare before christmas. also, christian alt band flyleaf has covered it as well, notably for the nightmare revisited tnmbc cover album. however. the fall out boy cover does not i repeat does not appear on spotify and it strongly recommends the flyleaf cover whenever you try. this wouldnt be odd except for the fact that my father, who exclusively listens to music downloaded offline from various pirating music sites, has the fall out boy what's this cover downloaded BUT. on his phone through the pirating download it as registered as belonging to FLYLEAF off the nightmare revisited album. what fucking christian alt coverup is this

So like, I've constantly heard people refer to a "brain bug" when talking about Oogie Boogie, like he has a single bug that controls all the others, but... I've never heard of a source for this information??
I'm guessing people just assumed that the last bug we see in the ending, which gets crushed by Santa, was this supposed "brain bug". But I personally never associated any special importance on that single bug. I always thought it was simply the last bug to survive, thus Santa squishing it signified the end of Oogie, after all the other bugs fell in the boiling vat below.
When Oogie's cloth "skin" was ripped off, and he started to fall apart, all of the bugs were saying "my bugs", because they were all him. I don't see what makes that final bug so special, other than it being the last survivor.
I guess people have been trying to figure out just how Oogie "works" as an organism, so they came up with the "brain bug" thing? I personally think of Oogie as sort of a spiritual being that represents fear, and manifests physically as a conglomeration of things that many people are afraid of, such as bugs. He is the bogeyman after all. I think he doesn't have a single "core" to his being, just many individual little organisms he possesses to keep a corporeal form. This could explain how he could return, like in Oogie's Revenge, despite seemingly being killed off. But that's just my own theory. lol
But I just always thought it was odd how widespread the "brain bug" idea has become in the fandom, when I haven't seen any official source for it. Was it mentioned in some merch or something, like a trading card? Could someone help me out here? lol
