twst characters as things from my class gc!

UM. HELLO THERE. so, i wish i could say that YAY HIATUS IS OVER I'M BACK, but.. nope, it's not over yet. i think these first months of uni will be very busy for me and when i finally manage to get some free time, my energy levels are just too low for writing, haha.. so yeah, i'm not sure when i'll be able to go back to writing imagines.

but i didn't want this blog to be totally dead, so i decided to do this fun little thing! i saw a lot of people doing posts like this and my class gc is. well. a whole circus, so i thought i should try this too. idk if these are going to be "in character" but i hope they sound like something twst characters would actually say.

this is going to be mostly heartslabyul, because i feel like our class really has heartslabyul energy jnmfdkdldf.

riddle: *a voice message* "trey, tell them that if they don't come to this event, they WILL regret it and the headmaster will kick their asses. no, actually, i'd be okay with doing it myself. you can just send this message to them. i wish everyone a good day, a good life.. and i wish for those who won't come to at least have pretty tombstones when i'm done with them."

ace: oh well, looks like i'm gonna get my ass kicked.

cater: i'd rather get my ass kicked than go to that event and die of cringe.

------------------------------------

deuce: i'm sorry, i don't really get this, can someone send me their notes?

riddle: here *sends a pic of his notes*

ace: oh, of course you're the type to have ✨a e t h e t i c ✨ notes.

cater: you forgot the 's'

ace:

ace: oh, of course you're the type to have ✨a e s t h e t i c ✨ notes. (edited)

-------------------------------------

(for context: one of my classmates mentioned that he's really into cooking and he's been trying to learn how to bake, but my prof said that there is no need for a man to learn how to bake unless he wants to impress a woman and even if he does it to impress her, she's gonna start using him, because now she knows he can bake. yes. he was very serious about it)

trey: the fun thing is that i'm actually bi and i already have a boyfriend, so hearing that i'm allowed to bake only to impress women is.. an interesting experience.

fem!yuu: i don't care that you already have a bf, i'm still gonna make you bake for me.

--------------------------------

cater: so i tried to take a pic of professor trein for fun, but i couldn't take a normal pic from this angle, so it looks like he's on top of the world and he's looking down on all of us

cater: this is so deep, i know

---------------------------------

(these are other messages after that one baking incident)

jamil: what's the deal with him saying that cooking for women is not masculine enough?

lilia: i got it, boys, we're only gonna cook for other men from now on

epel: the things that we have to do to keep our masculinity..

cater: marrying a man that you cooked for is the next step

------------------------------------

(again, for context: we have to make a short video introduction for all of us and we're planning to make it look like a tv show opening, but we don't know what song to use)

ace: seriously, y'all are acting like that one shrek scene

ace: idia goes "ANIME OP", cater goes "POPULAR SONG", idia is still sending anime ops and cater is still suggesting popular songs meanwhile lilia suddenly goes "A RANDOM SONG FROM THE 80'S"

--------------------------------------

trey, saying this to ace and deuce: i don't know how to stop you two from fighting all the time, so i'm just gonna send random recipes every time you two start arguing.

trey: and it looks like i already have to send the first recipe.

-----------------------------------------

yuu, showing a drawing they made for a class event: i wasn't able to fit in all the letters, so i had to do it in a more.. creative way.

ace: ah yes, happy inter

translation day everyone

-----------------------------------------

azul: *a voice message* you got it all wrong. we, dorm leaders, have other things to do and you all still have to do these tasks. so have fun with all of these assignments, hehe~

yuu: *also a voice message* hehe.. hehe.. hehe.. *STARTS CRYING*

-------------------------------------------

vil, sending a picture of his tired face: can you see how tired i am of reading all this nonsense now

--------------------------------------------

deuce: i'm gonna be honest, i wish i could put more effort into this, but i can't

ace: dude, no one here has put any fucking effort into this

---------------------------------------------

kalim, trying to do his dorm leader duties and write a class schedule + add professors' names: um. guys. i just realized that i don't know any of our professors' names

kalim: also, what is even the headmaster's first name

yuu, who's too tired of crowley's behavior: crowley. it's just crowley. write it like that

-----------------------------------------------

bonus: twst characters as songs that were sent for that one video introduction thing. i am only gonna do some characters, because some songs are too "local" and obscure for everyone's understanding hdfkdmfk

ace: all star by smash mouth

cater: not exactly a song, but someone sent a tiktok that looked like this very ~aesthetic~ and pretty sitcom intro.. but with bts members. it just feels like cater to me

trey: friends opening theme

ruggie: never gonna give you up. i just feel like he would send it. or ace.

floyd: you spin me round (like a record) by dead or alive

kalim: parappa the rapper ost. or azumanga daioh opening

vil: listen, if i had to assign both by todrick hall to anyone in twst that would be him or cater

idia: *SIGHS* someone decided to send bnha openings. yeah

lilia: anything from maneskin's discography

silver: wake me up before you go go by wham! get it. get it, it's because silver is always sleepy and-

A secret fifth Hogwarts house… Don’t think you could just sneak that in and hope we wouldn’t notice.

This is why I love the strike-through feature on Tumblr. You can slip things in like they're unnoticeable but they're actually not, so it's like you can say things without saying them! But not really, because they're still there, but you crossed them out so it's like you didn't put them in. But you did. I could do this all day. But I won't. Instead I'll happily self-indulge and talk about this idea that may or may not see the light of day in a fanfic somewhere down the line. I'd need to actually finish my current WIP before I even considered that. Oh look I did it again.

So, what makes a Hogwarts House? Well, let's start with the naming.

The Hogwarts Houses are all three syllable words that draw some loose reference to their ideals, or really, more like the feeling you get when you think of them. Or, most of the time, it's a reference to whatever animal is their sigil. Oh, and alliteration. The first name has to start with the same letter as the last name. So how did I choose? Well, when I was creating The Founder in question, I came across this guy, Tukaram. I'll get more into this in a second, but that name really stuck out to me, and I ended up revising it a bit. I also remembered that Hagrid had a Thestral named "Tenebrous" and I got to wondering who he might be named after.

So in the end, his name was "Tenebrous Tuzuurim."

But who is he?

Tuzuurim was a Wizard who, at some point, rescued each of the Four Founders we know from certain death. Or so the legends say. Tuzuurim is more myth than man, by the time Harry Potter attends Hogwarts. Many history books that reference him have been lost or destroyed. Stories say that he financed Miss Helga Hufflepuff's attempt to buy a family of abused Elves, who she then freed. That he burned a cursed book opened by a curious young Rowena Ravenclaw, which only made her more curious.That he rescued a little boy called Godric Gryffindor from a manticore. (Or perhaps it was a Chimera? Accounts vary.) Which birthed his love for adventure. Reports say Tuzuurim sucked the venom out of a snake bite little Salazar Slytherin had, and he was thereafter immune to snake venom.

Whatever the stories, it would seem that he mentored and all but raised the Four Founders, who credited him with teaching them everything they knew. Altogether, he had very little to do with the formation of Hogwarts, to his deathbed he considered it to be the magnum opus of his students, not a project he took credit for. But he did stay on to advise them, to break the tie when they would put things to a vote. Unfortunately, everything went wrong. By the time Rowena had grown ill, by the time Salazar and Godric had their falling-out, and Salazar had left the school...Tenebrous was long gone. No one ever knew what happened to him, if he died, if he was murdered...or if he just took off. Stories say that he traveled the world, studying obscure branches of magic - legilimency, occlumency, divination, and things of the like. Some say he disliked using wands, preferring to avoid attachments to the physical world. Others say he was a wandmaker. Some say he could breathe underwater, there are even those who claimed to see him riding a sea monster (more likely just a whale.) across the Atlantic. Others say one of his Disciples killed him.

Ah yes, his Disciples. Tenebrous had a House at Hogwarts just like the others. The main traits of a Tuzuurim are peace, tranquility, and neutrality. Not unlike the values of the Jedi, as an example. Tuzuurim himself was always the intermediary, the peacemaker, and that's what his students sought to be as well. Involving oneself in conflict for any reason other than to create compromise is heavily frowned upon. Tuzuurims can have a reputation for being arrogant as they consider themselves beyond the petty House rivalries of other students yet also refuse to tolerate them and will attempt to intercede when not asked, and refuse to get involved when they actually are asked. It is said that the reason so few Tuzuurims are ever appointed Prefects or Head Kids, is because all of them already consider themselves enforcers of peace and order. Their sigil is a Humpback Whale. Their primary colors are Ivory and Violet.

But of course, the question arises - where are they now?

Short answer, they chose to leave the school, much like Salazar did. In fact, if one was present at the time, they would see how fragile Hogwarts' structure was at the time, and the school outlasting it's Founders was not a guarantee. With Rowena's death, Salazar's departure, and the disappearance of Tenebrous, Godric and Helena were the only ones keeping the school afloat, and they were wracked with grief. The Slytherin students considered leaving, so did the Ravenclaws. But only the Tuzuurims actually left. Deciding to seek their Founder, and angry with the other Houses for not assisting in the search. They vanished without a trace, they even vanished from history. Perhaps they were the ones who worked to erase mentions of Tenebrous from the records, because whether or not he even existed is a contested topic in modern day. A legend among some of the oldest Pureblood families in Britain, a conspiracy theory of sorts. Only the Portraits in the Headmaster's Office know for sure, and they aren't talking.

But eventually, The Tuzuurims return.

Now, the question about whether they are at Hogwarts to stay, depends on the story and on the era, of course. If they're coming back to stay, it can only be Next Generation or later. Otherwise, it's a foregone conclusion that they'll leave, unless we're changing canon history. But I envision the descendants of Tuzuurim and his followers returning to Hogwarts over a millennium later, to claim their birthright. To demand a place at Hogwarts like the other four Houses. Bonus points if it's after The Voldemort Wars, because then they can point out the hypocrisy of allowing Slytherin to remain yet barring access to Tuzuurim. See, neither the staff nor the students of Hogwarts school are entirely thrilled about this idea. After all, Tuzuurim's very existence, let alone his legitimacy as a "Founder" is questionable. But even if the stories are true, and even if one believes that the Tuzuurim descendants are owed a place at Hogwarts...who is to say that these people knocking on Hogwarts' door are who they say they are? It could easily be a case of fraud, with The Disciples having left over a thousand years ago, there's just no way to reliably prove it one way or the other.

In the end, whether because The Sorting Hat offers testimony, The Portraits speak up, or evidence is discovered in the Library...The Staff decide it's better not to antagonize this mysterious group of witches and wizards, and agree to let them join the school "on a trial basis." But it's an uncomfortable moment because once they're inside, it won't be so easy to get them out, and the teachers know it. I envision a moment where the protagonists, Albus and Rose perhaps, watch a fifth Hourglass being built, and filled with pearls....with an uneasy feeling as they glance over at the Tuzuurims. I can even imagine The Tuzuurims calling for any first years to be invited to get re-sorted, if they want to, just in case they might fit better in Tuzuurim. I can see the new "Head" of Tuzuurim taking over one of the subjects - or, something else I had in my outline was that she proposes the teaching of a brand new subject - Wizarding Law/Government.

They would later have a Common Room built, up in the top floors of the castle, closest to the Owlery and the Astronomy Tower. For this, it is nicknamed the "Tuzuurim Perch" similar to how Gryffindor/Ravenclaw are Towers, Slytherin is a Dungeon, and Hufflepuff is a Basement. The Common Room itself is very barebones and minimalist. The Dormitories are in a floor below and resemble the cabins of a ship, the Common Room itself having a furnace-like fire in the center, but it's not to be used frivolously, leaving this Common Room very cold. The walls are circular and made of white marble, with tattered rugs of a deep violet. The entrance is guarded by a statue of a hooded and cloaked man - implied to be Tuzuurim himself. The statue uses legillimency on you to see if you have a clear mind, unhampered by distractions and emotional drawbacks. If you do, it opens a secret passage for you. Nothing happens to you if you fail, but repeated attempts to get in without success causes anyone in the Tuzuurim Common Room to experience a terrible feeling of unease, a "bad vibe."

If they do wind up staying, it would be a story of acceptance between them and the other four Houses.

That's about all I got! That's all I have written in my House outline. This may all be in a fanfic one day.

Hey Taylor! (Tumblr user @taylorswift )

It's ya girl, Nikkie. It's the sixth. Welcome to the third instalment of Monthly Letters: Post Meeting You!

I think in my last letter I mentioned I was kind of into this guy I met at the one (1) actual gig I did this year. I went to the show celebrating his band's EP Release. I figured since him and his buddy saw me perform, I owed them the same courtesy. They were really energetic, but I wasn't vibing with their lead singer for some reason. Both guys came and talked to me before they went on, and my friend pointed out that the one I'm into was flirting with me. He never followed me back on Instagram though :/. Oh well. Whateves. I'm also just going to add a quick note that the opening bands had lead singers who were f a i r l y pitchy and it bothered me because both of them were male and I guarantee you that if they were female they would have been booed off stage but they were male and had a slew of fans already. I don't know if I was just bitter or what, but I was fuming about it for w e e k s.

I had my 6 month eval with my Recovery Coach for therapy (basically they're in charge of making sure I'm doing the right things for my Recovery. Like setting up my therapy and any group therapies or other services the behavior place has avalible to me should I need it). I had set a goal to get my anxiety down from 5/7 days in a week, down to 3/7 days in a week! And I met it! I am starting to suffer again, but it was really satisfying to see on paper that therapy is working for me!

I've taken my mom to the doctors twice this month. The first time was really scary for me because the nurse refused to go outside and help my mom inside after she got really weak. It was this whole ordeal. My mom felt bad and was trying to mother my anxiety while not being able to breathe. I don't know if you've ever witnessed that with your mom, but it was definitely heartbreaking. Luckily the second trip went without issue.

On a lighter, happier note. I went to the Pumpkin patch this month too! It was really nice to experience a little bit of fall. I was going to paint my pumpkin but I couldn't pick a design so I have two pumpkins just chilling on my counter.

On Halloween I found out my dad got a new puppy! Her name is Xena (pronounced Zee-nah) and she's four months old. Come to find out later she was born on July 9th (sound familiar?). She's adorable. Indie and Xena are meeting for the first time later this week. I spent the rest of Halloween cuddling with Indie and watching the Purge TV show. (If you're into the Purge Franchise, I definitely would recommend the new season of the TV show. It dives into a psychological effects of the Purge, and the what the day after looks like for medical officials and stuff. It's pretty cool. )

I took a social media break last week and have been flucuating between coming back and staying gone. I'm in kind of a low place and when I'm on social media I kind of... Thrive off of attention. And get frustrated when I don't get it. It's hard when you're trying to market yourself as an influencer but can't influence people you know. I'm like... One of the least popular people I know. But hey, at least you love me.

All and All, October was a chaotic month. I'm hoping November is more laid back, and more pleasant. Here's to hoping I plant seeds this month I can actually sow.

XOXO

-Nikkie I
