Flower in video game
Something I love in video game is the use of flowers in them.As a florist (cause yeah that's my real job besides posting stupid memes and then disappearing for months) I love seeing some flower species in some games and I like it even more when creators decide to create their own species so I can try to find their ''in out world" counterparts.
In Undertale we have the ''Golden flowers''
Tumblr media
Golden flower that I like to identify as Buttercups
Tumblr media
It's the most obvious one since it's canonically accurate and it's looks the same.
Some others flowers from game that I love a lot share the same shapes and it's so obvious to know what they actually are.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So we have the ''Yellow flowers'' from final fantasy 7 , the ''Lunar Tears" from Nier automata (Nier saga/Drakengard) and the "Silent Princess" from Zelda respectively.
Beside sharing some emotional importance in the lore and being used as power up or/and heal object.It's actually inspired from the same flower.(Even people who don't know much about flowers know this one)
Here comes the lily's
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I think this one is the most obvious one but I've also found some real counterpart for the Silent princess.
Tumblr media
The blue tiger variety is the closest one that looks Exactly like the ''Silent princess".
I found this one a bit tricky and it's The Delicate Flower from Hollow Knight
Tumblr media
This one looks like a basic flower and at first I honestly thought of it as a chrysanthemum
Tumblr media
Since those the Delicate flower is associated with death and grief (Because of the secondary quest of Hollow knight that wears the same name as the flower, you have to put one of those one the grave of a child).In real life, Chrysanthemum are often the kind of flowers that you saw on graves and are often used for this kind of events.
Tumblr media
BUT (because yeah, there's a but)
It doesn't look quite the same and peoples seems to find the perfect real counterpart.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The flannels flower, it's looks pretty the same. (Even the shapes of the petals match!)
Now for those waiting for me to talk about kingdom hearts well...
There's no really any created flower in kh.
Of course we have Marluxia, the recurrent use of Roses or some other flowers on some keyblades.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I could also talk about those flowers that no one cares in the background of some worlds
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I could also sit down and theorising for years about the "Kairi's flower crystal heart thing" (oh look another lily in a cool game !)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And I could also talk about the fact that Xion have her name directly inspired from the Shions, a variety of Asters. (This panel hurt)
Tumblr media
And I could also talk about the capital importance of the Dandelion in Union X as much as peoples than as flowers
Tumblr media
(Looks he's literally holding one !)
And of course I could talk about Strelitzia
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Strelitzia are also known as "Bird of paradise". (Paradise= After Death = Quadratum= Kh4)
But there's no really any ''created flower'' that exist in the kh Verse but there's a hope.
The paopu fruit
Tumblr media
This one is pretty symbolic.But I tried to search a real counterpart for this fruit and Bingo! Here's the star fruit.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(It actually look as a star only if it's cut.)
Since you should know, fruit comes from flowers so what does the star fruit flower look like then ?
Tumblr media
It looks like this ! So now we have a small idea of what a Paopu flower must look like !

"Hwang Hyunjin I swear to God," you hissed, dragging your boyfriend by the wrist into the small bathroom at the back of the train car. "Make this quick," you snapped as you locked the door.
Your boyfriend chuckled and shook his head. "Fine, but be careful what you wish for, baby," he purred, leaning in to kiss you.
Tumblr media
[twenty minutes later]
"I can't believe you sometimes," you whispered as you sat back in your seat, Hyunjin taking his seat next to you with a very smug grin on his face. "Oh don't act like you don't love it," Hyunjin replied, throwing his arm around your shoulder and pulling you into him, pressing a kiss to your temple.
"You love this shit just as much as I do."
You rolled your eyes and tried to hide the smirk that started to form on your lips. He was right. Ever since you'd met and started dating, you learned that you and Hyunjin both got off on the idea of other people being able to see or hear the two of you being intimate.
Actually getting caught was mortifying as you both learned the hard way one day when Hyunjin's roommate came home early and walked in on the two of you in the kitchen, you bent over the counter and Hyunjin buried balls deep inside you.
Ever since then, you vowed to not actually get caught with your pants around your ankles so to speak but you both couldn't deny the thrill and rush of arousal that came with the potential of getting caught. Which is what drove Hyunjin to get you riled up, hands on your thighs, sneaking under your skirt while he whispered all the dirty things he wanted to do to you until you couldn't stand it anymore and needed to have him fuck you.
The two of you had snuck off to the bathrooms because unfortunately the train was pretty full at this time of day. Hyunjin always picked the weekends for these trips to the more rural areas on the outskirts of Seoul but you weren't entirely complaining.
Exploring the areas was one of your favorite ways to spend time with Hyunjin. Especially when he found a place to sit down and start drawing. You'd spent hours watching him create all sorts of art. He loved painting, especially flowers and landscapes. He'd started sketching people recently and you loved watching him work.
The way his brow would furrow as he focused on the rough lines on the paper and the way his teeth would catch his tongue as he worked. It was subtle but he looked absolutely adorable when he made that face but over-all, he was stunning when he entered his artist mode. And after finishing his work, he'd always turn his attention to you and shower you with affection.
There had been more than a few times the two of you had sit down for him to paint a sunset only to become entranced with you halfway through and needed to be inside you. You'd lost count of how many times you'd had sex in an empty field or on a secluded beach.
Hyunjin was insatiable for both art and you and you'd be lying if you said you weren't just as insatiable for him but he definitely brought it out in you. Before him, your days were full of work, binge TV and quiet nights in but meeting Hyunjin was quite possibly the best thing to ever happen to you. He changed your life for the better.
You were brought out of your thoughts by Hyunjin's hand resting on your thigh. Your eyes dropped to his hand and back up to his face. He wasn't looking at you, instead his eyes were fixed on the window beside you, watching the scenery fly by.
You turned to look out the window and noticed that while you were lost in your thoughts the train had stopped and quite a few people had gotten off so there were less people than before.
You continued to turn your head to look out the window as the scenery zipped by in a blur of color. You knew it was sometime in the evening and your stop was coming up soon.
Hyunjin had taken you to a small fishing town north and west of the city and the two of you had spent the majority of the day exploring the town, eventually making your way to the beach where you found all sorts of sea glass and even ran into a couple sea critters.
Hyunjin had of course sat down on some rocks to rough sketch the view before needing to drag you behind the rocks and out of sight of the beach to have his way with you.
He'd followed behind you as you went from shop to shop on the main street and stall to stall in the city market, finding all sorts of trinkets and excitedly showing them to him.
It wasn't long after you left the market with a few presents that Hyunjin found a small cove in an alleyway and pulled you into it, diving under your skirt, ravishing you with his tongue, and then stumbling back onto the street like nothing happened.
It continued like that throughout the day until you finally boarded the last train back to the city as the sun started to set.
You squeezed your thighs together as images of all the intimate moments of the day flooded your mind and Hyunjin couldn't help but notice your muscle tense under his hand.
He could only wonder what was going through your mind.
You felt his thumb caress circles against the skin of your thigh that was exposed to him. "What's going on in that pretty head of yours?" he whispered, lips brushing against the outside of your ear, making you shiver as his breath fanned over your skin.
"Just the day," you admitted softly. Hyunjin hummed in response. "Did you have fun?" he asked, reaching up to brush some of your hair back. You nodded, looking out the window, a calm and serene feeling blanketing you as the scenery outside grew darker.
"Wanna know what I'm thinking about?" Hyunjin whispered in your ear, a hint of amusement to his voice. "What's that?" you replied. "You," Hyunjin said breathlessly. "On top of me."
Your cheeks burned as you turned your head away from your boyfriend. "How pretty you sounded earlier at the beach. How no one could hear us over the waves," he added, hand on your thigh moving up slowly. "How you begged me to fill you up and paint your insides with my cum."
Your walls clenched around nothing as he spoke. He had a talent for working you up with his words and light touches on your body. "And then the alley when you let me eat you like I would never have another meal again. God," he groaned softly, taking your hand and placing it over his crotch where you could feel his erection.
"I love the way you taste. It's my favorite taste in the world."
You held back a whimper as his hand snuck under your skirt, fingers dangerously close to your center where he would find you wet and ready to take his cock. "I could eat you out for hours," Hyunjin whispered, lips ghosting over your cheek and down to your neck.
"I could fuck you for hours."
A soft whimper left your lips as his fingers finally made contact, feeling your panties already wet and sticky, a smirk forming on his face. "So wet already? What were you really thinking about, baby girl?" You leaned into him as his hand slipped under your panties, finger finding your entrance and sliding in.
You bit into your bottom lip, turning your head to hide your face in his neck as he set a slow and steady pace, pumping his finger in and out of your warm cunt. "Gotta be quiet for me," he whispered as he picked up speed, adding a second finger.
You grabbed his wrists as he stopped, plunging as deep as he could reach and curling his fingers up against your sweet spot, making your thighs shake and clench around his hand.
"That's my good girl," Hyunjin whispered. "Be quiet, sweetheart."
Your hand on his crotch started palming him through his pants, wanting to make him feel as good as he was making you feel. "Hyunjin," you sighed, eyes fluttering shut as he continued to curl his fingers inside you, trying to coax your orgasm out of you.
"Shh, angel," he murmured. "I know it feels good, but you have to be quiet for me." You held back a moan, burying your face in his neck and spreading your legs slightly. "Mmm you're such a naughty girl, spreading your legs for me like a little slut," he growled under his breath. "Just for that, I should bend you over in front of everyone here and teach you a lesson."
You quickly undid Hyunjin's pants, tucking your hand under the waistband of his underwear and taking his cock in your hand. He held back a moan as you started to stroke him quickly. "Keep doing that," he warned. "And I'll fuck you right here and now."
Your grip on his cock didn't cease, instead you moved faster, shifting in your seat to drop some of your spit on the tip of his cock, gathering it with your hand and using it as lubricant. "Shit," you heard him curse softly. "Get on my lap, quickly."
You shook your head, instead peering over the back of the seat in front of you to find the car mostly empty now. You leaned over, taking Hyunjin's length in your mouth, sinking down quickly to let the head slip into your throat and forcing a choked moan out of your boyfriend that he muffled with his fist.
You pulled back to take a breath but continued to bob your head up and down, tasting the salty precum mixed with your own saliva. "Oh fuck," Hyunjin hissed. "Either you let me cum down your throat and don't get off until we get home or you sit on my cock and let me fuck you full of my cum."
You pulled off him with a soft pop, smiling at him as you sat up straight. Hyunjin was quick, making you lift up and scooting under you. He pulled your panties halfway down your thighs and grabbed your hips, pulling you back and letting out a sigh as you sank back onto his cock. You dropped your head, keeping a firm grip on the seat in front of you as Hyunjin bottomed out, his cock buried to the hilt inside your hot cunt.
"Shit," you heard Hyunjin curse softly. "'M not gonna last long, honey," he murmured into your shoulder. You purposely clenched around him, your pussy squeezing his cock nicely and pushing him towards the edge. "Do that again and I'll fucking ruin this pretty little pussy," he growled in your ear.
A shiver ran up your back as Hyunjin grabbed your waist and lifted you off him just enough to thrust up into you. Your fingers dug into the cushion of the seat in front of you as your boyfriend snapped his hips up to meet your ass, driving his cock deeper into you.
"Oh shit, shit, shit," you whined softly, eyes fluttering shut as he continued to move. "Feels so good," you moaned. "Feel so full." Hyunjin let out a groan, cock twitching inside your cunt. "'M gonna fuck you so full, baby. Fill your pussy with my cum until it spills out. Gonna make a mess," he grunted, hips hitting your ass sharply.
"Fuck, fill me up, Hyunjin," you whimpered. "Cum inside me."
Your walls clenched once more, driving both you and Hyunjin over the edge and his teeth sank into your shoulder as he came, his hot load painting your insides as you sank onto him, your thighs trembling as your orgasm washed over you in waves.
After a few minutes, Hyunjin lifted your hips, his soft cock falling out of you and scooted back to his seat, putting himself back in his underwear and zipping his pants back up as you pulled your panties back up and confined his cum inside.
"You're so pretty," he said suddenly, reaching out to caress your cheek that was still warm. "God I love you so much," he added softly, leaning over to kiss you. "I can't wait to get home and go again," he said with a cheeky grin as you pulled back.
"You just came," you said incredulously, in awe at the sheer audacity of your boyfriend to be ready to go for another round when you just finished. His smile widened, kissing you again.
"I already told you, baby," he replied softly.
"I could fuck you for hours."

Dating Headcanons w Shoto
This man is chaotic af and I love his dynamic so I’ll be separating this into male vs female since he’s stated that he’s bisexual, happy pride month. I’m basing this on how he interracts with his male and female friends :)) (mostly Bao and Vox cause those r the clips I see the most and who he’s most comfy with)
As his girlfriend..
- he tries to be as helpful as possible around the house
-you two are constantly competing for the housewife position??
- one of you starting a lewd joke and it just snowballs out of control💀💀
- “ (name), honey, darling, my love, love of my life, get your sexy ass over here like right now” “oh my gosh ew Shoto u wanna eat my ass? Not on stream babe <33 ;)” “THIS GIR- THATS NOT WHAT I SAIDDD!!”
-oh yeah! Shoto sometimes does streams with you sitting in the same room as you or in his lap
- “todays stream is gonna be co-oped with my darling (name)-sama uwu” “Shoto I stg”
- he’s not afraid to announce the weird stuff you do, just cause ur off camera does NOT mean your off the hook
- “CAN YOU STOP FUCKING SHAKING YOUR ASS IN THE DOORWAY WHAT THE FUCK??-!”
- he commissions a custom asset for you, it’s of you slumping ur chin over his shoulder aw
- Shoto also commissions assets with ur regular model like holding hands, parading each other’s heads ect.
- using popular romance anime couples as pfps on your private social media accounts ( hori and miyamura, usui and misaki, etc)
- when your on your period, he grabs your heat source of choice (if it isn’t him ofc) and water. Along with anything else you ask for
- he also loves watching you style your hair in the morning. Like he’ll literally sit on the counter in the bathroom and watch you get ready
- you make him help but he just takes it as an excuse to have his hands all up in ur head???
- if your hair is on the straighter side, he styles it sometimes with random clips and intricate styles, but if it’s thicker and/or curlier, he stays out that territory entirely.
- poor babes doesn’t want to accidentally make your hair matted
- self care with (ship name) every Saturday and Tuesday!!
As his boyfriend
- if you thought he was bad with Uki or Vox, he’s even worse with you
- not one bone in his body can be stopped from being down abysmal for you (believe me, the people have tried)
- your assets are just as cute as the female counterpart, if not more. He also commissions pride month pfps and assets
- minecraft is just so domestic, he gives u flowers and shit.
- inexplicably horny tho, he bends over all the time while wearing short-shorts and is like
“I mean, well it’s hot, what else am I supposed to do huh? Go nude instead?”
Yes…please..
- this smug little shit, try flirting with him during a game though. It works, I’ve tried I swear
- “babe, if you get this next kill, on god I’ll suck you off after stream”
Player🔫sho
- he tells chat stories about what you guys do everyday and it’s so cute, like story time w Shoto.
- “so, uhhh, this morning! When (name) woke up this morning, he looked up at me from bed this morning and was like ‘mmm…g’morning baby…~’ in his seductive ass morning voice and *flustered noises*!!”
- he’s your biggest simp fan
- for some reason when he’s sick he just??? Starts streaming like every wasn’t coughing his lungs out?
- do you have to pick him up and carry him to bed, promptly ending Stream? Maybe
- his sick voice is so adorable though oh my gosh, so being around him is worth it
- “baaaaaabe, can you give me more medicineee?~ and another driiink?~” he calls from the bedroom
- teasing him >>>
- just do it, trust me you’ll enjoy it. He gets all shy and tsundere
- giving him compliments and praise back to back makes him go full tsundere though. Do with that information as you please
Either way, Shoto is a great boyfriend for men and women alike. Nobody gets left behind in this train! So treasure the time with him that you have. And remember, bribe him with sushi and maybe….juuust maybe, he’ll put on the dog ears (yes he has a pair irl)

Atsushi is the Fred Jones of Bungou Stray Dogs, not because I think he is a golden retriever but because Atsushi's background is built to give the perfect excuse to shove random skills and knowledge onto him. Fred Jones gets stuck with the most out-there
Atsushi grew up in an abusive orphanage, where he took solace in reading (and finding a book written by his IRL Author counterpart), so one can simply shove oddly specific books into the Orphanage's library and have Atsushi memorize it.
Need someone who knows a flower language? There was a section of Orphanage's Library dedicated to symbolism around the world.
Need someone who knows basic sign or how to read any other language? There was a Languages shelf in the Orphanage's Library.
There's a case that involves highly niche Artists and their works? There was a book or two with pictures about artists and their history.
Need someone to know about micro-nations throughout history? Well, besides the history section, there were several old maps hidden in the pages of the books.
The tea has an Almond scent? Its cyanide and Atsushi knows this because he read a horror short story about it once and it stuck in his brain. (The LandLady by Roald Dahl)
Shove a book into the Orphanage's Library and voila; Atsushi is now the Fred Jones of BSD.

SUN WUKONG INSPIRED OC CONCEPT + design notes under cut
His mask is inspired by makeup used in Chinese theatre and art, specifically makeup used for SWK's character, though simplified a lot for animation/repetition sake.
The design on his back takes inspiration from cobras and other animals that use eye-like patterns as a defense mechanism. The mythical beasts he faces in my story are based on real life predators, which are often ambush predators! When his back isnt covered by cloth, the bright colors on his back and face make it look like he's got eyes in both directions, meaning he can't be ambushed. His back design can and will be simplified for animation/repetition purposes, or covered with clothes. But they're still an important feature... they mean a lot to me.
Was also inspired by his role of protector against foes and ambushes in the original novel, just gives me that "you can't catch me offguard" vibe when I look at eye-designs on animals irl. Cobras my beloved...
He's supposed to have a monolid but I don't think I drew that well (even with references).... I'm trying my best to practice with eyes and while I believe i'm doing good with eye shapes, I need to work on eyelid stuff. Yk?
Dramatic facial expressions are an absolute must during intense scenes! Make him look like he got eliminated on the bachelor during the second to last round, and now he's gotta watch as everyone gets to go to Jamaica (first class flight). Make him look like he's Rick Grimes and his son just got shot. POV He's Walter White gif
Tumblr media
Star/flower shaped tail for bonus silhouette sillies! I want him to look really unique compared to my Macaque (who's much more flat and has thinner, scruffier fur.)
His face is also more upturned and rounder than my Macaque's, who has a flatter nose-bridge and slightly more flatter/longer face. SWK's ears are also much more round and fluffy, and his brows are thick and actually exist! Remember: Macaque doesn't have noticeable eyebrows, he just has a noticeable eye-ridge.
His swoop is important. His swoop is very important.
"Where's his circlet?" I'm designing it + its easy to draw furry anthro characters naked for concept art. FYI.
DO NOT DRAW HIM WITH EYEBAGS. The eyebags on Macaque are a distinguishable feature and I don't want SWK to have smth similar! ^^'
I really wanted to make him brightly colored and much more lively/expressive compared to my Six Eared Macaque inspired OC! He's more dramatic, looks younger despite them both being the same age, and is more eye-catching than his counterpart. Hopefully I succeeded in that!
Tumblr media
Also. A them.

TWST Theory : Analysis of Diasomnia Chapter and Twisted Wonderland Based on Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass - "A Mirroring World"
⚠️WARNING⚠️
⚠️CONTAINS SPOILER CHAPTER 7⚠️
It's just analysis based on my thoughts and some uneasy feelings I want to clear up coming from a hunch everytime I read chapter 7 and play twst as a whole so this theory isn't about "predicting what's going to happen" using Disney Sleeping Beauty as reference, but rather, to make sense of what's going on from what I see with my own perspective so take it with the grain of salt, because this is actually one absurd theory that even myself don't believe it, but this is what it is, this is what is there, and this uneasy feeling is too real since the day I played twst for the first time.
I remember somewhere in her tweet Yana said something like, "Twisted Wonderland is a world paralleling to our (Yuu's) world" so I feel like somehow, what happened in Diasomnia chapter part 2 is mirroring Twisted Wonderland itself so this time, I'll do the analysis in a special way similar to when I did an analysis for Crowley.
A secret to do an analysis of Twisted Wonderland based on "Through the Looking Glass" (and to solve the puzzle in itself) is that you'll need its counterpart, "Alice in Wonderland", and do the analysis between them back and forth because "Through the Looking Glass" is actually mirroring "Alice in Wonderland". I'll also do the same, but this time, with "Sleeping Beauty". We will try to detect and find some fallancies by comparing Diasomnia chapter with Twisted Wonderland itself and "Through the Looking Glass" with "Sleeping Beauty"
Just like I said before, this theory isn't to predict what's going to happen in Diasomnia chapter but rather, talking about Twisted Wonderland, the game itself as a whole.
Similarities of "Twisted Wonderland" and "Diasomnia Part 2"
Suppose that Twisted Wonderland is mirroring the real world, and Malleus' dreamworld is mirroring Twisted Wonderland, which is based on Through the Looking Glass. So we have :
1. Sleeping Beauty and Through the Looking Glass revolves around "dream". However, judging from Malleus' intention, his is not based on classic Disney's sleeping beauty but rather, the feeling of sadness and loss caused by time. If you know the reason why Lewis Carroll wrote "Through the Looking Glass" a sequel to "Alice in Wonderland" is because he has that feeling of loss because he couldn't meet the irl Alice (his main inspiration) anymore which somehow can be felt in "Humpty Dumpty" chapter, in which Humpty Dumpty said "Leave off at seven" but it's too late now. Alice is 7 years old when she goes to Wonderland. And how funny it is that Lilia is aged 700 years old when Malleus give him his blessing. Is it a coincidence? Or there's some hidden meaning behind it?
2. In Sleeping Beauty, Aurora is supposed to be dead by Maleficent's curse but rather she fell into deep slumber. Alice in Wonderland, originally titled "Alice's Adventures Underground" is a story about a girl who fell into a rabbit hole, which later revealed to be a dream when Alice awakened by her sister. Alice in Wonderland is actually inspired from a certain theme in art and litterature which popular at the time when the book is written, which is also the time when the author lived his entire life : "Victorian Age". That theme is Presephone, the Greek Godess of spring whose descent into the underworld. This theme is actually also the oldest recorded myth in world literature, and that myth is the story of Mesopotamian goddess Inanna's descent into the underworld realm of the dead.
The myth of Persephone begins in an idyllic meadow with her older sister, the earth goddess Demeter. Persephone is idly daydreaming and picking flowers when she falls down an infinitely deep fissure into a subterranean world. She experiences many adventures and trials, but at last escapes and returns to her sister Demeter’s arms.
The frame story of Alice’s Adventures—in both the Under Ground and Wonderland versions—mirrors Persephone’s journey. In Alice’s case, she is sitting in an idyllic meadow with her older sister, Lorina, and—while idly daydreaming and considering the picking of flowers—drifts into a dream wherein she falls down an infinitely deep hole into a subterranean world. Like Persephone, she experiences many adventures and trials, but finally escapes from the underground world and returns to the arms of her sister Lorina.
Now you know why Disney Japan and Aniplex chose Yana as the one who made the story and illustration of Twisted Wonderland (as I believe she did a lot of research on Victorian Age already during her time as an author of Black Butler) has a lot of theme around death, from coffin, the college gate that reads cortege upside down, the ghosts, the manga adaption Yuus who go to Twisted Wonderland after some kind of accident and their name that somehow related to death, even the year of the release of Mickey Thru the Mirror is there in Ignihyde dorm, the dorm of underworld.
3. Right after Malleus said, "give me that hand" Malleus went overblot. Right after we took Crowley's hand we see Grim overblot. If you read my analysis before, Grim is Jabberwock. Jabberwock is generally portrayed as a dragon-like beast, that is slayed by the protagonist of the poem with vorpal sword. In Sleeping Beauty, Maleficent in dragon form is slayed (stabbed) with Sword of Truth. Tbh I was really suspicious of Malleus who seems to weirdly attached to Ramshackle Dorm, the dorm of Through the Looking Glass after reading Jabberwocky when I was doing analysis on Grim, seeing that he is a dragon....
Tumblr media
We all know dorm leader SSR is released only at the same time when the story of they're about to go overblot is released (or after that in Malleus' case). SSR Dorm Uniform Malleus has the same type of magic as overblot Grim. Overblot Grim only has one type of magic, cosmic magic which its power increase gradually and that magic is the zero type cosmic magic (Zero Breath, Zero Breath II , Zero Breath III). Malleus SSR Dorm Uniform also has only zero type cosmic magic for his main two magic spells (Zero Ray II), though I already looked that the only difference are only their 3rd magic, but all of them are both cosmic magic.
Tumblr media
4. Malleus said, "You'll all become a hero in a fairytale." If you read the poem Jabberwocky (you can read it here) , even though it is a nonsense poem, it's a poem about a boy who slain a monster, Jabberwock and becomes a hero.
5. If we pay attention, we do know that mirror is like a door to other dimension, like Ramshackle dorm's mirror or any other magic mirror in NRC. In addition to being the "Sword of Truth" and possesing similar traits as Princess Aurora, in reality, the chemical process of coating a non-conductive substrate such as glass with a reflective substance, to produce a mirror is called "Silvering", and this term is also used for the application of any reflective metal as well. This process of Silvering is what makes regular see through glass becomes so reflective as if it creates another dimension. So if the dream world created by Malleus is mirroring Twisted Wonderland, then without doubt, Silver will be the key to get out from that dream world created by Malleus (and Idia who seems to have the role of Merryweather by breaking Malleus' blessing/curse)
Night Raven College and Twisted Wonderland (the game)
If you take a look closely and know it, there are some winter elements in both NRC and Ramshackle dorm.
A mirror we see in the prologue is the dark mirror from Disney Snow White, in addition, there is Pomefiore becoming the oldest dorm in NRC and many other things like the historical apple tree and well which seems to be from Snow White. If you ever watched Disney Mickey Lonesome Ghost, the short movie where the ghost of ramshackle dorm is based on, the time setting of the story is winter. In chapter 1 of Through the Looking Glass before Alice goes inside the mirror, the time setting of the story is also winter, even her white cat is named Snowdrop.
In Diasomnia chapter part 2, from what Malleus said, we can assume that his blessing can put everyone to sleep for 1000 years. In chapter 6, Idia said the spell on Grim is aged 1000 years which is an ancient spell of a primitive class. And it is said that NRC has been there approximately around 500 years or more since Lilia enrolled with invitation from 500 years ago.
Tumblr media
Besides in chapter 7 Malleus said, "Give me your hand." In the prologue, here when Crowley said "Take the hand in the mirror", we can see the hand in the mirror is actually belongs to Maleficent.
Tumblr media
So, what does this mean?
It's purely just speculation but referring to the analysis I did before, about Crowley being Mad Hatter, seeing how his role is basically just watching his students fighting and not doing anything is similar to how Hatta watching the Lion and the Unicorn fighting each other while drinking tea and as we know Twisted Wonderland is based on Through the Looking Glass (hence the name), we can assume that Crowley is the Mad Hatter of Through the Looking Glass (Hatta).
In most media, Hatter doesn't really have some kind of magical ability. However, in Disney Mickey Phantom Blot, Mad Hatter appeared as a cameo and his hat is stolen. I don't remember really well but if my memory serves right, he stole it to go to other dimension (you're welcome to correct me on this part). Additionaly, in Once Upon a Time TV series by Disney-ABC Group, Jefferson (played by Sebastian Stan) is a Mad Hatter who owns a magical hat that he can use to travel between different worlds and he used it to retrieve objects for the Evil Queen (yes, that Evil Queen from Snow White)
If we combine our assumption of Crowley as the Hatter from Through the Looking Glass, then that means we can replace the magical hat with mirror, which means : Crowley can use magical mirror to retrieve objects between different worlds.
And this is why in my previous analysis of Crowley, I only said "he can turn back time" but I never said his magic is to turn back and loop time but rather "he can manipulate timespace". It's shown in Mad Hatter's equation of 4th dimension, and besides even in physics, a change in timespace can disturb time itself. Therefore, a backward/looping time is only the side effect of Crowley's magic. His real magic is manipulating timespace like creating a portal or something.
Now after Diasomnia part 2 is released, there's one thing we need to question again : For who is this chant/question for?
Tumblr media
To answer that question we will need to see the prologue once again
youtube
Usually, everytime Crowley uses dark mirror, his chant will be "闇の鏡 (Yami no kagami/Dark Mirror)". However, if you notice it, there's something different from Crowley's chant on the prologue.
Tumblr media
We all know that normally the chant will be "闇の鏡 (Yami no kagami/Dark Mirror)" if Crowley (or us) want to use Dark Mirror which can also be seen everytime we summon for a card. However, for "The Flower of Evil" one he used the chant "鏡よ鏡 (Kagami yo kagami/Mirror Mirror/Magic Mirror)" and then "闇の鏡 (Yami no kagami/Dark Mirror)" afterwards.
If you know it or at least have ever heard it, "鏡よ鏡 (Kagami yo kagami/Mirror Mirror/Magic Mirror)" is the original chant for Magic Mirror from Disney Snow White in Japanese. If we see how the magic mirror works in Snow White, Evil Queen will asks a question who is the fairest of all, and then the mirror will give back the answer.
Based on this fact, though there are a lot of speculations even myself who thought it's meant for Yuu, what if the "鏡よ鏡 (Kagami yo kagami/Mirror Mirror/Magic Mirror)" chant is actually not meant for Yuu but rather, to reflect Maleficent's image in the mirror?
If we think about it, if Yuu is supposed to be "You" (us) then Yuu can have a lot of different traits depending on the people who plays the game, which is, really confusing to be described as a question/chant to the mirror. But if Crowley's "鏡よ鏡 (Kagami yo kagami/Mirror Mirror/Magic Mirror)" chant meant to reflect Maleficent's image as the way for the mirror to give the answer to him the same way as Magic Mirror give the answer to Evil Queen about Snow White, then his chant would fit, since Diasomnia is based on the "nobility" of Queen of Thorn's heart (Maleficent) and we all know Maleficent is also known as "Mistress of All Evil" (Flower of Evil). And so that's why Maleficent's hand is there reflected in the mirror.
Speaking about Mad Hatter's special ability again, in the video game of Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland, which is a video game of Disney's Alice in Wonderland live action, Mad Hatter has an ability called "Perspective". However, this "Perspective" is different in both Wii, PC, and Nintendo DS version. In Wii and PC, Hatter can combine things and visualize pictures into real by seeing them in different ways. In DS, In order to use Perspective, the player must find an orange hat floating and then Hatter can warp Alice and himself with his hat onto the other side of wherever the player is.
Although Yana herself said that "Twisted Wonderland" is based on "Through the Looking Glass", I still don't know whether she did put the live action Disney Through the Looking Glass in her work for Twisted Wonderland, but if she did, and if she referenced twst from its video game as well, then like the reflection that can be different depends on the position of the mirror, there's a high possibility that Crowley's magic can change depends on its position as well (Perspective)
So supposed that the Dark Mirror can connect to different dimension. Then if he combined his two magics it would be like this :
With "鏡よ鏡 (Kagami yo kagami/Mirror Mirror/Magic Mirror) chant, Crowley asked something about Maleficent to Dark Mirror and then it showed him Maleficent's image through its reflection. This is when he used his first magic, visualize pictures into real.
And then with "闇の鏡 (Yami no kagami/Dark Mirror)" chant, this is when he started to manipulate timespace and warp Yuu through the Dark Mirror onto the other side of Yuu's world (Twisted Wonderland)
Remember what Crowley said the first time Yuu got to Twisted Wonderland and met him? From Yuu's POV, they only thought it's a dream but for Crowley, he said something like this :
Tumblr media
So from that speculations we can conclude that Crowley retrieved Yuu from their world to Twisted Wonderland by borrowing Maleficent's magic, which is similar to Malleus's magic.
So if we see why everytime we groovy a card there would be thorns, it's due to the same magic effect from the same/similar magic (Malleus's unique magic) but Malleus wasn't the one casting it but rather, it's Crowley who did it. So all this time, the reason why they can go to Twisted Wonderland is because they're under Crowley's magic. Which is also why he seems to know something but pretend to not know it.
Once again, this is only speculation because there's no more in game information about it but if there really is a loop in Twisted Wonderland and that loop is a causal loop , then that would also make sense why Grim doesn't have origin, if he is actually created by the effect of the loop itself. Which also means Grim is as old as Crowley's magic (and because Crowley used Maleficent's magic/Malleus UM, that would make Grim approximately 1000 years old in Twisted Wonderland time from the time the spell is being casted).
The last chapter of Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carrol is titled "Which Dreamed It?"
Supposed that Malleus can create a world of dream by casting a sleeping spell on someone. If Crowley borrow Malleus'(Maleficent's) unique magic, then he can do the same thing as well, which means he created another reality of Twisted Wonderland in a looping time to prevent Twisted Wonderland to meet its end, and because of this causal loop (something that's already happened will always happen), Grim is (re)born from his magic and Crowley is trapped inside the loop itself, which demands him to loop the time over and over again and if he do something else and create time paradox, he can't loop the time anymore which means the end of Twisted Wonderland. And this is why he needs Yuu's help.
So based on this theory, we can conclude that Grim is as old as the loop itself, in which approximately has began since 1000 years ago. And maybe this is also why his card only being released on Twisted Wonderland anniversary. Whatever Grim is 1000 years in Twisted Wonderland time or maybe older or younger than that, I can't be sure since at the time when this theory is written, there's little to no information about Grim.
But if the looping of Twisted Wonderland was created since 1000 years ago through a dream, does that mean Yuu has been sleeping and dreaming for 1000 years?
The answer is no, because time in Yuu's world is different from time in Twisted Wonderland, if Twisted Wonderland truly is based on Through the Looking Glass and Alice in Wonderland. In both Alice in Wonderland and Through the looking Glass, there's part of the story where how time goes in Wonderland is explained. Those part are in "A Mad Tea-Party" in Alice in Wonderland and "Queen Alice" in Through the Looking Glass.
In the chapter "Queen Alice" :
Tumblr media
And in the chapter "A Mad Tea-Party" :
Tumblr media
In our world (Alice's world), it's always "What o' clock today?" which means there are many hours in a day. However in Wonderland, it's "What day this month?" which means there are many days in a month.
If we compare side by side the time in real world and Wonderland it would be like this :
Hours in real world is the same as day in wonderland (hours = days)
And day in real world is the same as month in Wonderland (1 day in real world = 1 month in wonderland )
Which means time goes faster in Wonderland than real world. If how the time goes in Twisted Wonderland is based on this fact, then that means time in Twisted Wonderland is faster than time in Yuu's world. This is somehow has been hinted from what Malleus said and from what Crowley said from the official english translation of the prologue :
Tumblr media
Well, Twisted Wonderland is just that interesting so I'm looking forward to what's in store for us.

KDL3 Stage 1-1: Tulip's stage!
I'm approaching these with a similar format to my KDL2 posts, except divided by stage rather than level since each stage is very unique in KDL3. This also means this is going to take me forever LOL. In terms of standalone ability drawings, each one will contain Kirby AND Gooey, since they have the same movesets. They're only placed next to each other for comparison though since like I said they can't BOTH wear the necklace at the same time. So far I think Gooey likes Spark the best!
This level has Rick and Nago, but I never used Rick since it was too risky-- too much of a chance of him accidentally stepping on the flowers!! Nago is preferential since he has 3 jumps. I would NEVER take Gooey here unless I was playing w 2 players though. His CPU is SO bad lmao (worse than any Helper in the original Super Star if you can imagine). That's how it is for the entire game quite frankly, but I REALLY like the idea of Kirby and Gooey going on the whole adventure together, so I'm pretending I did this whole thing with 2 people LOL.
I can tell you a little more about Nago since this post is very Nago centric! He's 19 years old and is honestly a completely normal guy... other than being able to turn into a giant cat anyways LOL. He can't use copy abilities for himself, but he's very crafty. He likes to help Kirby come up with new methods and angles to use his abilities. He has some difficulties befriending the other animal friends since he feels like he can't relate to them, so for now he's only friends with Kirby and Rick. He doesn't like when Kirby chooses to hang out with other friends over him. I guess that makes him n Rick more alike than I realized LOL. He is prone to expressing his emotions in catlike ways since he's a werecat.
I don't have much to say about this level's resident character, Tulip. She's a flower nymph, and she has 4... kids? counterparts? I don't know what they are to her. None of them transform, and the little flowers don't talk or anything, they just have eyes. Though, they can move underground by tunneling I think. Only between areas without grass though! They're very particular.
Ramblings abt Nago and calico cats in general under the cut since I have a special interest in cats and genetics:
So if you were unaware, calico cats (and tortoiseshell cats) are almost always female IRL! Thsi is because 'red' (orange) and black fur colors are both linked to the x chromosome, so a cat can only have 1 of those 2 per x chromosome. If the cat has only 1 x chromosome, it can only be red or black, never both. So this means that even though he's a male character, Nago must have 2 x chromosomes for his coat color to make sense. I think one could interpret him as transmasc, intersex, or they could say he has Klinefelter syndrome or some other chromosomal condition? So I chose to depict him as transmasc in my gijinka AU since I'm transmasc and he was my favorite animal friend when I was a kid!!
Did the designers working on KDL3 intend for him to be trans? Probably not, I think it was just an oversight. They wanted a funny cat character and calico is a very cute and popular color for cats! Though idk it is possible he was intentionally transgender since Kirby's probably like, the queerest popular nintendo mascot I can think of?? If he's gender neutral is it that farfetched for Nago to be trans or intersex? I don't know, I'm not his original designer.
Anyways another funny fact abt cats that Nago's designers might've known-- cats squint/close their eyes as a sign of trust in others! So Nago's eyes are usually shut because he's showing Kirby that he can trust him! (yes that means he's VERY upset when Kirby uses the needle ability or switches to a different animal friend cuz his eyes widen. TBF, if my friend was shooting chunks out of his face and turning them into needles, I'd be pretty distressed too LOL). I really like this detail cuz it means at least one person on the design team rlly rlly loved cats lol.

i need to flesh out tock's lore more cause theres a lot of stuff that sort of floats around about her that i dont know if i want to make canon to her or not but i do want something concrete. especially in regards to her and luka cause endwalker brought some tasty ideas forth
like i personally really like the general comcept of her and luka's footsteps being out of sync in terms of parallels between wol!luka and wol!tock but their paths still paralleling each other, since mags started playing this game much earlier than me, but since we experienced endwalker together they momentarily came really close to this sort of nebulous/metaphorical/magical idea of their worlds "touching" --- they exist in each others lore as non-wol counterparts (luka in tock's lore is just a catboy back home who likes to go fishing and isnt an adventurer, and tock in luka's lore is a dwarf on the first who wants to write music about luka's adventures since she herself cant leave kholusia), but even their wol selves are interconnected in a way
ultima thule is where they truly get to "meet" in a way --- i do however like the idea that their paths became one earlier in endwalker though, but it was in ultima thule that these two seperate universes could collide since ultima thule is a nest at the edge of the universe, so its here where two distinct worlds could only ever truly meet. and thats where the depiction starts of Tock sort of "feeling" someone here
even though i technically experienced ultima thule first irl, i like to imagine Tock hearing an echoe (for the song, Echoes in the Distance) of someone else walking alongside her, and a sort of metaphorical foot path she follows after this apparition (coming back to Footfalls), and it gets loudest at Base Omicron. I always played around with the idea that the graha tia in Tock's universe of Shadowbringers who gave his memories to Tock's Graha was in some way connected to Luka, so Shadowbringers was where Tock first felt this sensation of someone beside her, since Shadowbringers was the endgame when i started playing. Its nothing either of them are fully aware of, but Graha is one of the "bridges" between their two universes that is papee thin yet there
and of course at the walk up to the elpis flowers I think that sensation returns, and simce dynamis is what manipulates ultima thule and made these apparitions of others appear, that the little piece of wol!luka that exists in wol!tock's heart made his existence manifest to her side, not as his own person/recreation of him, but more like dynamis drew down that barrier that these two from colliding, yet neither were fully present --- Tock was still in her timeline and Luka in his, but in ultima thule their footfalls briefly lined up and the two becames, as they say, "close in the distance"--- and as Tock walked herself up the path to meteion, luka was doing the same in his own timeline, and they briefly walked together through the hardest and final test of their hope
From there the concept becomes fuzzy because i always try to keep tock and luka as wols seperated so i dont wanna step on mags own oc lore, since luka is not mine and hes got his own rich and complex meanings for endwalker and ultima thule, but sometimes i like to think about what it wouldve been like if in that moment of using the azem stone and standing before meteion Tock saw Luka, the true Luka, for the first time.
but this is all again not necessarily canon because mags is always putting crazy good thoughts in my head and due to not writing down my endwalker thoughts and how. OUGH endwalker is im always reworking these ideas and moments because ultimately all i need is to know that where tock walks is the same path luka walks and they both walk forward together even if they dont know it. Because to Tock Luka is a catboy back home she needs to return to because hes waiting for her return with a warm meal and to Luka Tock is a dwarf on another start he needs to return to because she'll have a new song for him. But little do they know they are so much more to each other in places close in the distance

Random Dzhokaen Facts #1
I feel the need to mention that the Dzhokaen’s planet is heavily based on the carboniferous period irl, with arthropods being the most abundant, however reptiles and amphibians are still present. There is quite literally no mammals or birds to be found (having had not needed to evolve said traits), with the reptiles and insects respectively filling those roles ecologically. Plants and fungi are significantly taller then modern day earth, but for the most part true trees are dwarfed by their larger fungal and fern counterparts, and flowers are typically found in the swampy regions in oppose to the more rainforest-like sections. The planet’s ‘polar’ regions are more akin to warm tropical coniferous forests, albeit with their conifers being much taller, and more similar to the Retrophyllum minus of New Caledonia, in oppose to what one would generally imagine a conifer resembling.
However, due to the high oxygen levels, and the incredibly humid and warm climate, the planet is incredibly susceptible to intense lightning storms- which are known to be significantly worse in the rainforest regions. However, like in Australia, certain species evolved to use the all too common (yet easily contained due to the water) fires to their advantage. Be it to spread their spores and seeds, or to drive out prey.

Infodumping to random strangers irl about things you love and they start listening and show interest and share what they also know is a special feeling. Like I was at a theme park resting at a planter with flowers and there were many different types of bees and wasps all over the flowers and someone part of a group pointed out that there were bees and I piped in and said how these bees are harmless and how there were bumblebees and honey bees. And I started talking about bee behavior and why bumble bees are bigger and fuzzier than their honey counterparts. And the group were listening and talking about how genuinely cool that was. And I was like "Oh! So that's one of the reasons of being alive :)"

I was watching a video about irl counterparts to plants in LoZ BotW when I saw something pretty familiar
Tumblr media
It’s called a Torch Lily, doesn’t it look familiar
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I think the the new torch flower in Minecraft is probably based on the torch lily.
They both have long leaves and a greyish stem with a tall red and yellow flower. Though the colours of the flower itself have been swapped. I will also mention that torch lilies don’t have purple tipped leaves but other than that they’re pretty much identical.

Interesting note while watching some footage of Pokemon LGPE;
Each town seems to have flowers chosen that reflect the town's name color. Pallet Town, with it's colorless theme, seems to have a lot of daisies, whereas Cinnabar Island, with its red theme, seems to have red camellia trees.
The second one is particularly interesting to me because Izu Oshima, the place Cinnabar is inspired by, is so well known for camellia flowers that they have an annual camellia festival! I wonder if daisies are common in Pallet's IRL counterpart...
It seems weird to me that no matter where I look, no one seems to be talking about this detail. I'm really not at all interested in flowers, so I'm having a hard time identifying them all, but I'd assumed someone else would've already made some kind of post or video about this.
I'd like to identify the flowers in each city if I could. Anyone able to help with that???

(ooc question) in your headcanon, do you think there are pokemon smaller than Joltiks or Flabébé's? And they aren't talked about in the games or anime series' because as they can't battle effectively against larger mons they aren't in public conciousness?
In short yes, and theres no real logical way there isn't.
Long answer is a number of games and episodes in the series depict flora of a very delicate small size, which in theory cannot all be pollinated by the wind, it's just not statistically plausible.
So yes, this blog works on the idea that there are beedrill, combee mothim, and butterfree (amongs many others) of a small, almost realistic size, that are far too small to battle or be registered as a dex mon. This goes for all pokemon. Just as we've seen huge alpha species, miniatures exist that keep the world turning, fertilise flowers, pollinate crops, feed the bigger fish or bird types, decompose rotting logs or turn the earth we walk on, and generally they are far too weak and small to be classed as a tangible pokemon you can battle with.
The dex is all about kids, all about them finding cute mons to play with and train besides, great. wonderful. But those do not constitute everything within the world. A book of animals in your local library probably won't talk a lot about amoeba, worms, or pill bugs for example, but without the small things, the big things can't logically exist. Pokemon in my mind works the same, they big up the fun animals, and overlook the tiny ones that help everything else. To a kid it's easy not to mind that, but adults in this blogs lore would know this, and don't mind. Teeny tiny Spinarak in the corner of your kitchen eating the odd lifesize ladybug-Ledyba that flies into its web just as you'd find in your actual home sometimes. Also the notion of there being outdoor and indoor pokemon just as there are field and house spiders for example, becomes a thing, but a thing I wont get into right now.
It is a kids game, i'm pretty forgiving with the broken lore they distribute, its not suppose to be taken so seriously, so here I like to play with and believe the idea that all of our IRL bugs and critters have a "pokemon" counterpart, and come in ridiculous size ranges to make sure food chains make sense, and to give a sense of realness to a reasonably illogical lack of small bugs, mammals, and fish. I mean, what does Wailmer eat then if smaller things don't exist and it's based off animals? Theres no Krill pokemon... so in theory theres variant Whimpod that are very tiny! Swimming around in shoals for bigger things to eat.

On the Double Black's Battle Strategies
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I think about this more than I should beause they're literally referencing their own counterparts work ugh. And I still think about how ingenious and also how detailed it is🤧
Translation credits: @/yeouya
Tumblr media
The reason they uses "shame and toad" is because as the translator's note says it's a combination of their irl works. So it's sort of a collaboration between the two in real life authors as is their current strategy in the manga.
Whereas the other two that Chuuya mentioned are their individual works. As the translator's note says "rain falls outside the window" is a reference to Chuuya-sensei's poem. And the "fake flowers of deceit" is probably better known as "flowes of buffonery" is a novel that Dazai-sensei wrote.
