Self-aware au

Written before the English release!

I do not take any responsibility for you reading this no matter which age group you are from!

WARNINGS: Yandere themes, Jp-version spoiler(!!!), death, description of war, unhealthy mindset, religion, obsessive themes, unhealthy family dynamics

General! Lilia Vanrouge/(Platonic) Maleanor Draconia/(Platonic) Knight of Dawn-Yandere headcanons

Ladies and gentlemen, may I introduce? Lilia Vanrouge 1.0. The more cold, hard and ready to behead the next human version of the usual Lilia (also known as the Lilia Vanrouge 2.0 model)

Lilia back then was “rough” and I am being nice calling him that

Back then, Lilia was surrounded by loss and a lot of Faes getting everything they ever owned ripped away from them

Of course this impacts him (I mean he is strolling through battlefield after battlefield so of course it does)

Lilia wasn't always such a devoted follower

Yes, he did believe in the Overseer, aka you, but only after witnessing the brutality that came with him being a general did he turn into a follower with such drastic views

After all, if there was no higher meaning to all this violence, to all this loss and despair, what was even the point of it all?

You became his moral, mental and also a bit of a physical crutch for him

Whenever he felt like he was this close to just giving up, he thought about you and that this was part of your greater plan (totally not part of some valley church propaganda)

After witnessing that human hiding behind the Knight of Dawn in all his haughtiness and cruelty, he finally set out on his quest not only to make the humans leave his beloved home but also to make them into loyal believers of the Overseer

But sadly, everything was for nought and Lilia had to go into hiding

The only thing keeping him going was his believe in you having a greater plan

A few hundred years later and Lilia finally found out what that supposed plan of yours was

Laying in that cold, lonely crib was the child of his old, now deceased enemy

Taking the child, now called Silver, in he learned the joy of a family, the boy giving him more joy than anything ever before in his life

Finally, he had found peace. Of course he did. This was your plan all along, right? You must have ordered those three fairies to make his beloved son survive until now, right?

You were, after all, a kind deity. There was no way this was all just a war happening because of greed. Because if this truly was just events happening after events then...

Lilia never finished that thought

The great ruler of the night fae, mighty and powerful sorceress who could fell an entire nation in one swoop if she wanted to was despite her cruel and aloof outside appearance a pretty devoted follower since the beginning

Despite being a Fae, she was feared just like her unborn son due to her powers (and being more or less being on the same level as a nuclear bomb but hey, I doubt that anyone of us would stand next to one of those, right?)

So it is no surprise that she turned to something, someone, to feel less alone

Especially after her husband disappeared did she wish for some sort of sign that she was not alone

And oh boy, did religious propaganda from the high church take that loneliness away

When her beloved son, although in an egg, was born, she visited your altar daily, thanking you for her child being healthy

(This could also be the reason why Malleus is the way he is but I am just a writer and not some all-knowing God so idk, just a theory)

She definitely has "taken care" *cough*totallynotproblematicforarulertobeinfluencedbyreligion*cough* of Fae that were non-believers

How dare their sinful ways dirty your holy image?

See? Totally not problematic

At first she only tried to protect her subjects after the humans attacked and took over parts of her kingdom

But after a while she started to have another goal

What if she shared your splendor with those little useless invaders?

Humans were most definitely vile but you were able to unite so many different kinds of Fae in your name under the Draconia name

So why not also unite those humans in your name in a peace treaty?

Such a kind God you were! Allowing for peace in your name!

And, well, if violence and destruction was needed to make those beings understand and surrender, then that shall be what they get

Besides, she was only honoring her husbands wish to get closer to the humans so who was she to selfishly aim for another goal?

The Knight of Dawn (long name, I know) did not always believe in you

Heck, the poor guy probably never heard of you until he fought the Fae

But if the humans from back then didn't really know about you, then how did he find out about and why did he start to see you as his God?

On this part, I would say, he and Lilia were eerily similair

Both were pushed into a war neither liked, so of course he was also in a very unstable situation which made him, like Lilia, search for something to hold on to

The three Fairies had mentioned before when he was still training to become as strong as he was now, mentioning a kind deity who accepted all, who loved unconditionally

Back then he only thought of you as one of the many deities that were prayed to back then

But once the war started and he saw your churches and cathedrals for the first time, his opinion slowly started to shift until he saw you as the highest being possible

I mean, all of us would if we lost all stability over night, having only destroyed buildings and a half-standing church in front of us

He hated the plundering of your sacred placed even before he became a believer, having the opinion that it was just a cultural difference between the two kinds

This led to him kneeling at the cracked altars of many of your churches, asking for forgiveness, hoping that you would understand that he didn't have another choice

What he would do to witness one of your sermons…

And when he was lonely enough, he imagined you watching down on him from up above

Just like a... a parent

You see where I am going with this?

So when he was facing the Queen he only hoped for your forgiveness, hoping that his loving family member would forgive his gravest sin, him killing a mother

And he found salvation, in letting that child and the retainer escape

Perhaps you could forgive him now

> This is... Black Scale Castle!

> This is Hornton's home..!

They're rushing to get the egg to Maleficia. Lilia's SO DESPERATE because he says HE HAS TO GET TO MELEANOR. HE HAS TO. Baul's telling him that it's a suicide mission to do so, but Lilia won't listen. UNTIL A BRIGHT LIGHT PIERCES THE SKIES.

Lilia: "This is... Don't tell me, this light!"

Soldier B: "Witch! You're still fighting even after that attack?"

Soldier B: "Dark magic completely enveloping the skies, pure black thorns blocking off any chance of escape... This is exactly what an evil tyrant would do!"

Soldier C: "There's no way we could coexist with a monster like that. We will definitely take that thing down here!"

Knight of Dawn: "Just where did we go wrong? If only we could understand each other, if only we could compromise... Maybe we could have seen a future together."

"But I... This path we took..."

"We've hurt each other, lost too many friends... We've reached the point of no return."

"I will not ask for forgiveness. But, allow me this dream.

"Fae and humans. A world where all races can laugh together. One day it will not be just a dream... It will come true."

" Dreams, fleeting vestiges of tranquility. Futile delusions in the eyes of God's eternal. "

" Is it so wrong to dream, to wish that this moment would last just a little longer? "

– Dreams in Eternal Reminiscence

i LOVE quoting Raiden Ei onto book 7, it fits so well 🥲💔

My saddest thought right now is that Meleanor "actually cried" when she left Malleus to Lilia, that's why there was a sudden thunderstorm when she appeared before the Silver Owls. (Its not just for badass purposes shjdsj) There's no tears but the skies easily gives away what she truly feels😭 She wanted to experience Malleus growing up too‼️😭 Same thing with Knight of Dawn.... He died already from protecting Leia and the three fairies with Silver,,,, He didn't even had THE CHANCE TO NAME HIS SON unlike Meleanor,, 😭💔💔

And you're telling me that the closest he got to his son was to smile at him from a distance, seeing that he has people that he can trust (Sebek and Yuu), and even before that moment, he didn't use his memory to save Silver out of the darkness (I theorized that the reason we saw "the memories of Lilia"in 7.5 is bcs Silver's ring is trying to save him from the darkness by reminding him of Lilia's love for him and we know where that ring came from--) HE SAVED HIS OWN SON BY REMINDING HIM OF LILIA'S LOVE NOT HIS LOVE GOD-- i think about knight of dawn for more than 5 minutes and I AM WHACKED IN TEARS

WHEN is my hugging scene between these princes and their parents 😭😭😭

Character Design for Princess Leah, mother of Silver

Design notes & Headcanons!

We very limited information about Leah so most of my choices are headcanons

Her princess design is based on King Henrik's colours which I assume are the colours of royalty

Since the Knight of Dawn's hair colour is Aurora's, Leah's hair is based on Prince Phillip's hair colour

Leah's dress is based on Aurora's and Aurora's mother's dresses in the Sleeping Beauty movie, especially the veil, dress cut, and accessory shape (modelled after Aurora's crown)

As the Princess of Dawn, many see Leah as a kind and beautiful princess who is always surrounded by butterflies attracted to her spirit

Although she isn't unkind, she has a sense of pride and petty vengeance. Many don't know that pretty-looking insects aren't the only critters around her

Like how Silver attracts animals and woodland critters, Leah attracts insects and arthropods. To an extent, she can communicate with these creatures. Thanks to this, crops grown on this land are bountiful and infestations are extremely rare

Leah is usually seen working in the castle so she uses the time surveying farmlands as moments of respite from maintaining the royal image (she also learned a lot of swears due to this)

Almost like Silver, when she sleeps, she's dead to the world. She's gotten used to waking up with her little friends crawling around/on her. When her future-husband was assigned to be her guard, he nearly had a heart attack the first time he saw this

She has 3 creatures she's especially close with: Albert XLI the silk moth, Ravanche the centipede, and Paon the jumping spider. She planted Ravanche multiple times on Henrik when they were younger when he was being stupid or annoying

She almost used her again when she saw Henrik antagonizing her husband but he stopped her. She constantly reminds him that he has already repaid the royal family for taking him in when he was younger but his sense of integrity and knighthood always seeks to repay the kingdom

But she is no knight or fighter. When the war ravaged the lands and fae-human relations broke in part due to Henrik's foolishness, she was separated from her knight and husband throughout the war

Twisted Wonderland Moms! + Dads

Maleanora and Dila really said copy and paste to my son! Then there's mama Shroud whom I think Idia got his geekiness from.

LIKE MOTHER LIKE SON.

The Draconia genes are so strong!! I wonder what grandma Draconia looks like. They're so regal, like yes please, look down on me more.

Dila and Deuce! Their relationship is amazing. I can't believe that even though she's a single mom, she raised a wonderful son.

Mama Shroud and her children. Oh gosh, they're adorable too.

Also, Silver's Father and Dad. :'))

I can't believe that although Silver is orphaned, he got the best qualities from both his father and adoptive dad. He is the manifestation of the best from both worlds. A precious child.

+++

I can't wait to see the parents from the rest of TWST cast. Because you know, they raised their children. It's interesting to know that somehow, some of them turned out that way.

HANAAAAA

The post about lilia oversleeping and him saying fiddlesticks, can you do the ot3's reaction of lilia somehow managing to oversleep that badly that they just go withoit him and wait for lilia to show up.

Like

Yuu: welp true loves kiss didnt get him up. Dawn your turn.

Dawn: * smooches*

Lilia:is slep

Dawn: alas, true foes kiss didnt work either.

Yuu: i'm taking our son and going to class dawn, you should do the same

3ish hours later or smth

Lilia: jolting up: Im LATE FOR SCHOOL

lilia: i graduated years ago

Also lilia: I RE ENROLLED

[Masterlist; in reference to this post too]

Hello Ladyzsgolla🤗 🌺🌻💚

LMAOOO, the way I laughed at “true foe kiss” from Dawn. 😂🤣

Poor Lilia had to go to school…twice. Lmfaoo now that’s pure torture. I would know, I had to do that too 😭😩

You and Dawn stare as Lilia slept, heavily.

One look around the room told both of you right away that he had spent most of the night gaming, despite both of you telling him to come sleep last night.

Dawn poked at his cheek, smiling slightly as Lilia’s tongue poked out in response.

You couldn’t help but laugh at the situation, “It seems our Sleeping Beauty won’t wake up.”

Dawn knew right away where your thought process headed, “We need to break the curse. True love kiss?”

You grin, “Is there any other way?”

You leaned down and kissed Lilia, only to have him turn towards your warmth.

Okay, that was too cute for your heart.

You gestured for Dawn to do the same, only for him to get the same response.

“Well, looks like true foe’s kiss didn’t work,” Dawn smirks at you.

“Well My Knight, we have no choice but to leave our dear princess to his sleep. We can’t have the kids be late to school.”

Lilia: I can’t believe you two left me!

YN: It’s not our fault True Love Kiss didn’t wake you. In fact, you seemed to sleep more peacefully.

Dawn: It was rather cute.

Lilia: …you two better not tell Meleanor.

“This scene is familiar…as if I’d seen before, once upon a dream.” ✨

Still sharing my insta reels on here because why not! Anyways, there are so many layers to unpack with this reel 🤡 I know the audio is probably a bit out of left field (shout out to jjk anime and the upcoming shibuya arc that will destroy me because the manga already had me in shambles), but I think the confrontation really fits Silver and Malleus. Are they doomed to repeat the grim actions of their predecessors, or will they manage to salvage their own happy ending? I’m just in love with the way twst constantly throws it your face how similar Silver and Malleus are as well as how different they are from one another…BOOK 7 IS JUST TOO GOOD 😩

I could ramble more about Silver and Malleus, but let me just shout out here how proud I am of the animation in this reel! The part with Silver crying is so smooth, like I was nervous it would be choppy, but it turned out so well! I tried to keep the movements small to match the vibe of the audio and I think the parts I chose to highlight look really nice…hope y’all agree lol Anyways, enjoy and we shall see what I do next!

since the last twst update i've seen some people disliking the knight of dawn's copy and paste design and discussing the theory that he actually looked different in reality but has simply taken on silver's face in lilia's dream--which i do think is a fun idea that's definitely plausible! but i'm here to admit that this design choice not only doesn't bother me at all, but... i actually actively really like it, to be honest.

my initial reason for why i didn't feel bothered by it was that as we all know by now, silver is clearly twisted from aurora, and so many of the disney princesses look identical to their moms with aurora herself being no exception. so i just took our disney princess boy looking identical to his dad as a sort of homage to this!

but my second reason, the one that made me grow to really like the knight of dawn's seemingly silly sameface design once i realized it, is the fact that malleus is literally also a copy of meleanor. maybe it's just not as immediately noticeable, but look, he is.

silver and malleus already have so many fascinating parallels and this latest main story update just added even more: they are both the royal children of enemy kingdoms in a war from centuries past. a war in which their own parents directly fought against each other, both just trying to protect their loved ones and their people, only for them both to meet tragic ends with meleanor even dying at knight of dawn's own hand. but it's because of everything that occurred back then--the knight of dawn choosing to save lilia and help him escape with malleus's egg in spite of everything, malleus needing a couple extra centuries to hatch from his egg without his parents there to give him their love, silver being put into an ageless sleep and not having anyone whose true love could wake him for hundreds of years--that malleus and silver were both able to be taken in by lilia and grow up alongside each other.

and it also just so happens that they're both near-perfect reflections of their parents who fought and died so long ago. but when they look at each other now, they don't see the face of an enemy, but of a beloved member of their family, of someone who they would do anything to protect.

#LISTEN maybe this is silly #and i think it's fine and cool if people wanna imagine the knight actually looking different #but yeah. malleus and silver both looking just like their parents got me emotional #it's about the PARALLELS and the SYMBOLISM okay #twisted wonderland #malleus draconia #silver vanrouge #twst silver #meleanor draconia #knight of dawn #twst #twst spoilers #twisted wonderland spoilers #book 7 spoilers

What makes the Knight of Dawn so tragic is that he knew what they were doing was wrong- but Henrik manipulated him by using his father-in-law's incurable illness and his love for Leia/Leah to coerce him into dueling Meleanor and inevitably killing her

This led to him eventually getting murdered himself in land dispute, leading up to his wife also dying and their baby son being spelled into a 400 year sleep

But that one last good deed he did- helping Lilia escape with the Malleus egg so that they could live, led to his son being rescued, raised with love and protected.

Silver could super easily go down the same path as his father- Being convinced into doing something he doesn't want to if his love and loyalty is used against him,

But unlike his biological father, Silver has known what he thought was right from the start. He could've allowed Malleus to let everyone stay in a dream and prevent Lilia from leaving, but he knows it isn't right and against what Lilia wanted, so he fought against someone who he views as family and dedicated his life to.

And when you see the Knight of Dawn again smiling at Silver, I can just feel how proud he is seeing that not only did his son grow up to be a good person, but an even better man than he was.

"you are just as guilty" ⚔️🥀

last cough of art before the update ahkdhkshsksh AAAAAAAAAAA i dont wanna leave Briar Valley yet 😩😩😩😩 Lilia don't gatekeep all the lore,,, dang it,,,💔💔💔💔

sometimes i really do wonder what Meleanor or Dawn's last thoughts before dying..... ESPECIALLY Dawn... Bro rarely has the chances to express his individuality, he's so tragic to be with the Silver Owls sm.. 😭who suppresses all opinions as seen with their soldier garments (all of them basically have the same motifs and design) in contrast,.. Meleanor's army has differently designed mask to highlight the unique faes they are--

I have this thought that like Silver, he cries about the sins of his nation as well... 😭I think he has regrets that he made Meleanor overblot and blames himself for it 😭 (Like how Silver was the last straw to make Malleus overblot-)

I think its a common interpretation that Dawn is heroic, but I don't think of him that way KSJSKS, not because he's not a hero, but because he's a failed one. In the story, it felt like he was "just a person". He's not perfect, he's flawed.

And, I think the existence of "failed heroes" like Dawn is really intriguing in TWST,,,, because the heroic characters here are depicted as "never failing at anything". Like how RSA characters are. They never lose at anything, but ironically the character most inspired by this school (RSA) failed at "being a good hero."

I'm interpreting he failed because he couldn't make his mission come true; peace between fae and humans, in fact he might have worsened it with the passing of Meleanor 😭😭💔💔

The most tragic thing of all his life, was probably the part where he died, not because of the faes, but of his own fellow countrymen... I imagine in this image, what did he even kill Meleanor for? He couldn't make any peace between faes and humans, he couldn't save his country, we're not even sure if he did use Meleanor's magical stone to save the Human King and if he was successful with it, so if he has failed at everything he aspired to achieve, then what else is the point to all the bloodshed he has faced and committed?

In a way, his "punishment" is similar to Rollo's, celebrated by the achievement he didn't want to commit (except its the good guy this time adskjs)

(Thats why I'm sold at the idea of Dawn just giving up fighting at his death bcs theres no way if he did actually had the motivation to fight, he'd lose against fellow humans when he fought Meleanor on solo akhdkhs... unless they reveal how he died as well next update---🙏🏻✨😳/copium)

In a way, its similar to Silver's disappointment too, that he worked all his life to make Lilia proud, to make sure that faes like his Father can be understood better, only for Lilia to leave him all alone yk... 🥹

But on the other side, I don't think he failed too much... because of his losses, Silver was brought to Lilia 🥹🥹

I feel like Lilia will relate to Dawn as well,,, He said in the story that he sympathized with Dawn because he spared tamago Malleus, but I beg to differ.

I think its actually because like Dawn, Lilia is also a knight who failed at everything he aspired to commit to (he took so long to hatch the egg and he failed to protect Meleanor and keep his promise with Levan that he'll take care of his wife and son-) so at that realization, Lilia probably sees that there's no reason to hate him, they had the same fate, so why would he hate his child as well?

He's not living anymore but I think Lilia could see that Dawn probably awaited for centuries to wake his son up from sleep,,, like how Lilia desperately waited and wished that something would hatch Malleus already 😭😭💔💔

JUST... KNIGHT OF DAWN I'LL REMEMBER YOU FOREVER SKDJSK 😭😭😭😭🫂🫂🫂
