Proposing to Him with His Disney Movie: Riddle, Leona, Vil

It’s been a few years since you graduated NRC. Crowley never did end up finding you a way back home, but you were content spending your life with your love. Although recently you’ve been wanting more.

You loved your partner with all of your heart and you knew that you wanted to be tied with him forever. After years of being together, marriage seemed like the most obvious step. But how to propose?

Then it struck you.

You remembered a man who had commissioned someone to draw himself and his then girlfriend (now wife) into her favorite Disney movie for his proposal.

(If you’ve seen this video, you know what I’m talking about.)

When you arrived in Twisted Wonderland, you still had your phone. And while it didn’t work with calling and texting, you did have a few classic Disney movies downloaded onto it, including your partner’s movie.

You got to work right away. You had picked up a few hobbies in Twisted Wonderland to preoccupy yourself, drawing and animation being one of them, and you wanted this proposal to be as personal as possible.

Besides, you didn’t think it was a good idea to show anyone in Twisted Wonderland a movie where the Great Seven were painted as villains.

It took a long time to start and finish the animation for your proposal and to find the perfect ring for your love, but after several long months of prepping and paranoia it was finally time.

You asked your partner if you two could have a movie night on his next day off, and he agreed.

Everything was set. Blankets for cuddling were washed and dried (still warm) along with your movie jammies, the snacks had prepped and sat out, the “specially selected” movie was in the DVD player, and you had bribed Grim (who stayed with you all these years) with tuna to leave you two alone for the night.

It was time to make him yours.

Riddle Rosehearts

Riddle’s life was constantly busy.

After graduating NRC he became a rather successful lawyer. He cut ties with his mother, which was messier than his overblot and ended with a restraining order, but he was much happier afterwards.

Due to his busy schedule, he always adored every peaceful minute he could spend with you. Especially recently, when those moments what become few and far between.

You had been acting odd these last few months, and Riddle was worried. You had assured him you were just busy with something, but wouldn’t tell him what, which concerned him since you told each other everything.

This is one of the reasons he was so excited when you brought up the movie night.

He worked extra hard that day to get home early to you. Once he arrived you nearly had a heart attack because you hid his ring in the blankets. Thankfully he didn’t notice anything and even brought home a tart from Trey’s bakery.

You quickly stowed the ring away while Riddle changed his clothes, thankful that you pajama pants had pockets, and finished getting everything ready.

Once Riddle came back, you were under the blankets, ring box hidden in you lap, and surrounded by snacks. Riddle quickly joined you and you started the movie.

It was rather peaceful watching Alice in Wonderland with your dear Riddle. At least, it would be if the ring box wasn’t burning a hole in your lap as your heart beat erratically.

It had been a while since Riddle watched Alice in Wonderland with you and he enjoyed pointing out things in the movie familiar to him and would give you a brief lesson about them.

You know he was just excited and loved trying to impress you with his knowledge, and normally you loved that, but he kept pausing the movie to do this and it wasn’t good for your poor anxious heart.

Finally, after turning an hour long movie to a two hour long movie, it was time for Alice to meet the Queen of Hearts. Which also meant it was almost time for you to propose.

You shifted your position as The Queen of Hearts appeared on the screen. It was difficult for you to sit still as the seconds towards your proposal kept getting shorter and shorter.

After the Queen sent off the card solders, she looked at Alice who was on the ground.

When the movie transitioned from Alice back to the Queen, Riddle let out a “Huh?”

Instead of the Queen of Hearts, Riddle appeared wearing his old Dorm Uniform.

Movie Riddle blinked before smiling down at ‘Alice.’ The scene switched back to show that Alice had been replaced by movie you, wearing her outfit/a similar outfit.

Movie You got off the ground and curtsied to Movie Riddle before reaching into your apron pocket and pulling out a red velvet box with a tag that read “Open Me” on it.

Movie You threw it up in the air and real you pretended to catch it before turning to face Riddle, who was watching you with wide eyes.

You knelt in front of him and held out the box, an exact replica of what was on the screen, and handed it to him.

He carefully picked it up, as though it was the most precious thing in the world, and held his breath as he opened it, gasping at the sight of the ring you picked for him.

“Arriving at Twisted Wonderland was like a dream. For me it was a land of pure wonders with the most wonderful of all being you. Being around you alone makes me blush as red as the roses you love. I love how clever you are, how passionate you are, and I especially love the faces you make when you eat sweets.”

Riddle let out a little laugh at this, but didn’t dare interrupt you.

“There hasn’t been a thing about you that I haven’t loved and will stop loving. We may have graduated, but you’re still the queen of my heart and it will always be yours if you’d have it. Riddle Rosehearts, become my queen forever. Marry me?”

Riddle blinked away happy tears before using a hand to tilt your chin up to his face, gently kissing your lips.

“Yes, my love. My rose. My heart. Yes.”

Leona Kingscholar

Even though Leona finally managed to get himself to class long enough to finally graduate, he didn’t want to return home yet. And he sure as heck didn’t want to abruptly introduce you to royal life without any prior preparation.

Fortunately he was scouted by a professional Spelldrive team, who was more than eager to recruit him, and the two of you started traveling.

You were pretty much Leona’s manager in all but name and without the pay (As he put it, his income was your income). You did do some odd jobs from time to time, not wanting to solely depend on him, but you did have a lot of free time. Which did come in handy when you decided that you wanted to propose.

You and Leona had been on the road with his Spelldrive team for a few years now, and Leona was beginning to think it was time to return to Sunset Savana.

You decided you’d propose on his final game. You spent the entire Spelldrive season working on this proposal, recruiting his coach and teammates to keep him busy, and finally, the night before his finally game, everything was ready.

You told his coach, who ended practice early so that Leona wouldn’t be too tired during the movie and fall asleep.

Leona was suspicious of his coach’s decision. Why would he let the team off early before their big game? But ultimately ignored it and texted you that he’d be coming back to the hotel room early.

You tried not to make it obvious that you had been staring at your phone, waiting for this text, and responded telling him that you wanted to have a movie night with him to celebrate his hard work before he retired.

Leona was always looking for an excuse to lounge in bed with you, so he obviously agreed.

You, on the other hand, were wondering if you’d stay awake long enough so that you wouldn’t miss your que.

You had been working on this and stressing about it for months and Leona was your personal weighted/heated blanket. You knew that he wouldn’t mind if you fell asleep, always down to cuddle, but you would.

You got everything ready, from the snacks, to the pjs, to the cuddle blankets, so that by the time Leona made it back to the hotel room, all he’d have to do is shower and change.

Leona was admittedly a bid suspicious of how eager you were (as much as you tried to hide it), and that, mixed with the coach letting everyone off earlier, made it obvious to him that you were planning something.

He just didn’t know what.

Deciding to ignore it for now, he took his shower and changed while you double checked everything and started up the dvd.

When Leona walked out, he wasn’t exactly thrilled to see the starting screen of ‘The Lion King’ on it. He gave you a dirty look, which you returned with a sheepish one, before clasping your hands together and begging him.

“Please, please, please! You can pick the next one.” You promised.

Leona just sighed and crawled onto the bed and started cuddling you, his tail wrapping around your thigh.

You smiled and started up the movie.

As unamused as Leona was with your movie choice, he at least stayed awake during it. He only smiled during ‘Be Prepared.’

You were enjoying the movie about as much as he was, but that was because of the proposal.

Leona could tell by the smell of your pheromones that you were nervous about something.

“Oi,” He squeezed you a bit tighter, a small frown of his face but concern evident regardless. “You’re nervous about something.”

You shook your head with a small smile.

“I’m fine.” You reassured, calming down a bit. It was weird, but his concern gave you a boost of confidence.

Leona wasn’t convinced but didn’t press anymore. Only giving you an occasional glance to see if you were still ok.

It wasn’t until the scene where Nala and Simba were reunited that your pheromones spiked again, much stronger this time.

Leona could actually see the sweat forming on your brow.

Grabbing the remote before you could realize, he paused the movie and turned to face you.

“What’s wrong?” He demanded, holding the remote out of arms reach when you tried to grab it. “Why are you so nervous?”

You bit your lip nervously. You really didn’t want to propose to him like this, but you also knew he wouldn’t give you back the remote until you told him the truth.

“Leona, it can’t tell you but if you please play the movie you'll know why.” You promised.

Leona glared at you. He hated when you kept secrets from him. He hated it even more when you were hurting and you wouldn’t tell him why.

“Please, please, Leona.” You begged.

Leona narrowed his eyes even more, but ultimately pressed his thumb on the play button and continued the movie.

At this point, you two weren’t cuddling anymore and Leona was watching you more that the movie, waiting for a reaction.

‘Can You Feel the Love Tonight’ started playing and you shifted your body to a more alert position, mutely telling Leona that something important was about to happen.

You looked over at him and pointed at the screen. “Please watch.”

Leona listened, but still glanced at you every few seconds.

You both watched as Nala and Simba tumbled down the hill, but Leona perked up when the scene changed to when they were at the bottom.

Instead of the two lions, images of Leona in his old dorm leader uniform pinning you, wearing your own version of the Savanaclaw uniform, flashed across the screen.

Movie You kissed Movie Leona’s cheek and the scene changed to a close shot of Movie You smiling up at Movie Leona before switched to a close shot of Movie Leona smiling down at movie you.

Your movie counterparts sat up, and Movie You reached into their pocket and pulled out a black ring box, opening it and holding it out to Movie Leona.

You grabbed the pillow you had been leaning against and pulled the ring box out its hiding place. You couldn’t really kneel on the bed, so you turned your whole body to face him.

Leona’s eyes were wide in disbelief as you opened the box to show the ring you had bought for him (with the money you had earned from your odd jobs, not what he earned from Spelldrive).

“I’m sorry for worrying you.” You firstly apologized, “This wasn’t how I wanted this to go. I wanted to surprise you. Have us cuddle while enjoying a movie before surprising you with this,” You waved towards the screen, “and proposing. It’s funny how I planned everything but didn’t even remember that you’d be able to smell my nerves.”

You laughed humorlessly to yourself as Leona gave you a soft look, feeling a twinge of guilt.

He gently brushed you cheek and you leaned into his palm.

“I’m sorry from ruining this, (Y/n).” He apologized. You shook your head in denial.

“It’s not ruined.” You argued, taking your hand off the box and placing it on top Leona’s. “Not yet.”

“Leona,” You started, working up your confidence, “You are the best thing that's happened to me. I don’t, and will never, want anyone but you. Will you marry me?”

“Yes.” Leona breathily agreed, grabbing the back of your head and pulling you into a kiss that you happily returned. “Yes.”

Next day’s Spelldrive game was one for the history books. The fans couldn’t remember a time they had seen the King of Spelldrive this eager and energetic.

And it wasn’t hard to figure out why when they saw the ring he refused to take off for the game flashing on his finger.

Vil Schoenheit

You were never more thankful that Vil was a movie star than when you were working on his proposal.

Vil was near impossible to surprise, so you were wondering how you were going to keep your proposal a secret.

However luck, and Vil’s manager, seemed to be on your side.

Vil got an offer to star in a huge movie that would take him away from home for a few months.

Normally you weren’t a huge fan of these offers, but this one worked in your favor.

Vil found your eagerness for him to take this offer suspicious, but ended up listening to you. You did call each other everyday and you visited him every so often during shooting, but he was away from home long enough to remain oblivious about your secret proposal.

Now to figure out what scene to propose during.

You knew Vil never cared for the movie ‘Snow White’ since the main character reminded him of too much of Neige LeBlanche and the queen died at the end, so you had to get creative.

Your original idea was to have Vil as Snow White at the end of the movie and yourself as the Prince, kissing her awake, but you weren’t sure if Vil would be in a good mood by that time if he had to sit through the movie’s entirety.

So you came up with a better idea.

After several long months without your Vil, he finally returned home. He had called you before his flight home and that's when you asked for a movie night when he got back.

Honestly, Vil was a little tired of movies after working on one for so long, but he agreed as long as he got to spend time with you.

You watched several of Vil’s old movies once he got home to put him in a good mood, knowing how grumpy he’d be when you brought up Snow White.

As you predicted, his face fell when you showed him the DVD you’d made and said it was Snow White, but didn’t do more than roll his eyes.

You started the DVD before telling him you were going to drab something from the kitchen and not to pause the movie. Unbeknownst to him, you were grabbing the ring box.

You quickly grabbed the ring from its hiding place and all but ran back to the movie room were Vil was. You didn’t have much time before your que.

You made it to the door and cracked it open just enough to see the narrator finished the introduction of the movie and the camera was zooming in on where the Queen would make her entrance.

Only, it wasn’t the Queen.

You held your breath was you watched Vil tilt his head in confusion at the sight of himself wearing his old dorm leader uniform walking up some stairs to a giant mirror.

You watched him sit up, more alert when his voice came from the audio. You had spliced together his voice in the movie using audio from his other movies.

“Lady in the Magic Mirror,” Movie Vil spoke on the screen, “Come from the farthest space. Through wind and darkness I summon thee. Speak! Let me see thy face.”

You quietly walked towards Vil, taking care that he didn’t see you. Thankfully, he was transfixed on the screen.

Instead of the normal/iconic masquerade mask in the mirror, an image of you appeared within the mirror, wearing your own version of the Pomefiore uniform

“What wouldst thou know, my Queen?“ Movie You asked Movie Vil.

“Magic Mirror on the wall, who does thy heart belong to?” Movie Vil asked.

This was it, you though to yourself, stopping behind Vil who had still yet to see you.

“My heart is yours, tis true my Queen. Tis why I bring you a wedding ring.”

Movie You and Movie Vil turned to face the audience, making your Vil’s eyes widen as he turned around in his seat to see you kneeling with a beautiful ring in your hands, held out to him.

Taking a deep breath to work up your nerve, you looked your queen in the eyes and started your proposal.

“I’m not eloquent.” You started, swallowing hard. “I’m not good with fancy words, like Rook. And I wouldn’t have known what write out for that movie if I didn’t have a reference. And I’m not perfect. Not nearly like you I see you. But I can tell you that I love you, and that I will do anything to make you happy. I’ve been doing my best so far, but I’ll do better than my best in the future. And I only want that future with you. Vil Schoenheit, will you marry me?”

You don’t think you’ve ever seen Vil look more soft in his life.

Pink danced across his cheeks like the prettiest blush, his eyes were the slightest bit misty, and a bright, loving grin covered his face.

“Yes. Yes, my Sweet Potato. I’d love to marry you.”

𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡-𝐡𝐨, 𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡-𝐡𝐨~

what’s it like with neige leblanche having a crush on you?

author’s note : uuuu i’m such a simp for him… (´；ω；`)

part 2 here!

i’ll preface this by saying— he can’t hide his feelings for the life of him. he thinks he’s doing well keeping it a secret, but probably everyone knows about his crush on you. you included.

whenever you two are in the same vicinity, he tends to stare at you. not creepily, but like— it’s cute, it’s in an admiring kind of way! you’ll just be minding your own business and doing the most mundane of things, but he’ll be looking at you with hearts in his eyes.

with vdc up and coming, everyone was supposed to be practicing. but what was neige doing? daydreaming and staring at you, of course.

you were getting bored of standing around and watching the boys’ practice performances. their singing and dancing is amazing, no doubt, but you’ve seen and heard it for probably the hundredth time now. one more listen and you might just overblot.

aimlessly looking around to see if there was anything interesting happening, you caught neige looking right at you. now, that’s definitely interesting, isn’t it?

deciding to be a bit cheeky, you winked at him— you were sure it would fluster him, but didn’t expect for it to make him freak out as much as he did.

the boy squealed, clutching his heart. he was absolutely giddy, resisting the urge to spin and jump around from pure thrill. he grabbed onto his classmate’s sleeve and shook it excitedly. “t-they just winked at me!”

↑ overreacts at anything even slightly flirtatious ^ ^

you get to be good friends with all the dwarfs! well, all except for one. gran. the guy’s highly suspicious of you, which greatly saddens neige. no worries though! he’s sure to come around at some point after realizing you have no malicious intent (and with all the other dwarves nagging him).

you looked down at gran, who was glaring at you. you cleared your throat and gave him a smile. “hi there.. hmm, gran, was it? is there anything i can help you with?”

“no— just came to say i’ve got my eye on you!

neige came rushing to your side, apologizing for the dwarf’s behavior. “oh, gran, why are you like this towards them?” neige frowned, gently nudging him. “what will it take for you to see they’re a good person?”

“right~ y/n’s so nice~!” toby grinned. the others pitched in, expressing their agreement. except for shelpy, who was fast asleep. “they don’t look like they wanna hurt neige, or any of us for that matter, do they?” dominic asked, holding his hand out towards you.

you laughed, wrapping an arm around neige’s waist and pulling him towards you. “really, gran! you don’t have to worry! i’d never do a thing to hurt him— i love him!” neige’s heart skipped a beat. “we’re best friends!”

he shows up at ramshackle a minimum of three times a week, random days, random times, and no warning. he gets all sad when he hasn’t seen you in a while, and you don’t want a sad neige, so these visits are absolutely mandatory!

“Y/N~! GOOD EVENING~!”

you’d recognize that cheerful voice anywhere. “hah! told’ya he’d show up today! you owe me a can of tuna!” “yeah, yeah.” after letting grim inside the dorm, you ran down to the gates to greet neige, who was carrying a bag of sweets.

“neige! back for another visit? you’ve been here nearly every day of the week!”

he giggled. “i can’t help it, i was just missing you so much! but anyways, here, i made these on my own! they’re just for you!” you took the bag from his hands and opened it, leaning in to smell them. “these look and smell incredible, you’ve really outdone yourself this time! how do i repay you?”

“oh, there’s no need!” he flashed an ever so precious smile at you. “c’mon~ i insist! you’ve been doing so much for me lately, i’d feel guilty if i didn’t do anything in return.”

“well in that case..” you watched as he played around with his hands. “how about giving me a hug? that should suffice, hehe!”

you get to read all the jealous, sometimes even angry comments towards you from his more.. obsessed fans whenever he posts a picture with you or even mentions you. funnily, neige is more bothered by them than you are.

“gyah! these are harsh!” grim flicked his tail around, annoyed. “how are you so unbothered by these, henchman?”

“i’ve been wondering the same thing, actually.” neige sighed as he removed the cruel comments one by one. “it’s admirable that you’re so calm about it, but…” you gently smiled at his part sad-part frustrated expression.

“i’m able to stay so cool cause neige is being upset on my behalf~” you teased. “jokes aside, i’m not sure— i guess i just find it better to laugh it off rather than be all mad over them.”

neige looked up at you when you ruffled his hair. “look. there’s, like, basically nothing we can do to stop these comments, so just laugh and brush ‘em off, okay? i hate seeing you so concerned over something as dumb as this.” he gave you a nod.

—

“just how am i gonna confess to them?” neige sighed. he looked down at all the scratched out options on his notebook. he was nearly at his wits end.

whenever he came up with an idea, there was something wrong with it— and him, wanting to give you a picture perfect romantic confession, rejected it.

“oh, this is all so difficult..” his grip on his pencil tightened and he went back to brainstorming.

#rook?? the biggest neige leblanche fan?? rook better step aside #i shouldn’t say that actually— he might use me as target practice #but please come brainrot over neige with me in my inbox orz #to you the reader not to rook suhdajudj i’d love to brainrot with him about neige though ngl 😳#i wanna be friends with the dwarfs so badly (；ω；) especially toby!! he’s so cute with his strange little haircut #twisted wonderland x reader #twst x reader #twisted wonderland #twst #neige x reader #gn reader

sometimes i think about the dwarves from twisted wonderland and think, yea actually, i can get why gran's annoyed all the time

imagine you were born shorter than others because of your race, and people infantilize and look down on you because of it, i'd be frustrated as well.

and like, imagine, you'll always be seen as this cute little child, even though you're already a sophomore, and you'll probably always be perceived as one, even when you're an adult, because at the end of the day, all you'll ever be is an extension of someone else's image (neige) and you're whole entire identity revolves around them.

idk i just find the dwarfs to be interesting. like whats their life like outside of neige? do they have hobbies of their own? i'm sure they do enjoy performing with him, but is that all there is to it?? like, what if one of them just goes "hey singing and dancing is fun and all but i wanna pursue a career in archaeology"

probably the other dwarves are bothered by this too, but they care about neige a lot, so they don't really say anything

#this came from a doodle i made of gran saying fuck and dominics there like “gran u cant say that!!”#and grans like “i'm 17 i can say whatever the fuck i want to” then it spiraled from there #gran should be allowed to swear. please. as a treat.#(plus it would be so funny if it wasnt gran who swore and like. timmy or hop or something)#here we are again with me unnecessarily adding nuance to side characters who probably wont matter in the story any time soon #goes crazy over rsa i NEED more lore vshshahGsgahg #twisted wonderland #neige leblanche #the seven dwarfs #the dwarfs twst #gran twst #royal sword academy #twst #rambling #also this is kinda a sequel post to my other post about neige having abandonment issues and the dwarves being older than neige so.#check that out too i guess #twst gran #miz says stuff

Solving the Dwarf's Mine & the Monsters

The Dwarf's Mine is very interesting and one of the many mysteries in TWST. Because thinking about it, nothing about it makes sense, let alone why Crowley sent the MC, Ace, Deuce, and Grim to the mine in the prologue for a magestone. But I think I cracked the case.

The Dwarf's Mine is based on the mine from Snow White (sus for Crowley), but has been abandoned for a long time. I don't know if it's explicitly said how long it's been abandoned, but there's so many contradictions, and the reason WHY it's been left alone is also unclear, despite encountering an Overblotted monster.

I just learned this myself, but the Dwarfs' Mine is actually not the mine from Snow White! In one of Rook's chats, he says that there's a very similar mine in the Evil Queen's domain, where there are diamonds and rubies. I find it very fascinating that the Dwarfs' Mine in TWST is pretty much an exact replica, down to the 7 chairs in the Dwarf's cottage. Pretty much everyone assumed that this mine was the OG, but some reason, it's a replica.

This ONE little chat changes everything we can assume about the Dwarfs Mine. The Overblotted Monsters are not the actual Grumpy and Sleepy, nor did they Overblot due to Snow White's death. Much like the students who have Overblotted, the Phantoms base themselves off of historical figures, but are not the actual ones in the flesh.

Everyone is also aware that the mine has been abandoned, so it's they learned in History class. We know this because in Vargas Camp, the students talk about the 'red flower,' (a reference from the Jungle Book) a forest fire caused by a miner back when the mine was still active, making the fairies scared of fire. However, not a single person ever mentions a monster, which would be a VERY good reason to abandon the mine in the first place. In Vargas Camp, we learn there was AT LEAST two phantoms haunting the mine: a red one and a green one. Miners could have just escaped the mine from the monster, but the miners would've told the public, or investigations would have been carried out as well.

Additionally, there's a huge amount of the magestones left in the mine! Despite Crowley's claims that there were likely no magestones left, in Vargas Camp, everyone is digging them up left and right! Even the Adeuce crew manage to get their hands on one in the prologue, despite not being professionals.

In Vargas Camp, we also learn that magestones can be detected by their magical aura, and while students struggle to detect them, professionals can find them with ease. So the miners HAD to have known that many magestones were still left in the mine if even students can dig up so many. The main reason why mines get abandoned is because there's nothing much left, but that's not the case at all.

Let's recap: This mine is new place entirely, the phantoms are not the OG dwarfs, the Phantoms are not why the mine closed, and there's plenty of magestones left.

That leaves us with very little information at what actually happened at the mine, doesn't it?

Wait.

Crowley lied (that isn't a surprise actually).

Here me out: Although I have no idea what caused the mine to be abandoned, Crowley is a huge part of what happened AFTER. He lied about the mine being empty, and he knows about the monsters. The biggest clues are the 3 ghosts in the prologue and Vargas Camp, and the green Phantom.

When Adeuce and crew first enter the Silent Woods, the trio of ghosts say it's the first time they had guests in 10 years. But I don't buy the idea that it's been abandoned for only 10 years. Everyone talks about it as if it were ancient history- Even Crowley says it was abandoned a while ago, yet also says the ghost camera isn't 'super old,' as if he were taking offense to his age.

Crowley also enlists the trio of ghosts to assist with Vargas Camp, and they're so chill about it, as if the ghosts and Crowley were previously acquainted. It also implies that Crowley entered the mines himself to recruit the ghosts, and a mage of his caliber HAD to have known about the existence of both the monster and the plentiful magestones. We also know that this is first time Vargas Camp has been held at the Dwarf's Mine, because again, the ghosts say Adeuce are the first guests in 10 years.

In the prologue, Adeuce & Crew told him about the monster. He KNEW there was a monster, and still held Vargas Camp at the same exact mine. And I think he knew that there was a second Phantom at Vargas Camp as well, because after Vargas doesn't believe the "excuse" about the monster, Crowley says the group had the gaze of those who've fought for their lives.

So here's what I'm thinking: CROWLEY purposefully created these Phantoms, aka Overblotted likely innocent humans. In Book 6, Idia brings up the idea that someone may be causing these Overblots on purpose. What if the Red Dwarf Phantom was one of Crowley's first experiments 10 years ago? The ghosts would have known him, and he likely charmed them into thinking nothing was wrong. Then, at Vargas Camp, he created the second Green Dwarf Phantom.

I think it would explain why we didn't see the Green Dwarf Phantom in the prologue, and why no one knew about the Red Dwarf Phantom. Hell, it may even be why the Phantoms resemble both the dwarfs and the poison apple: Because of Crowley, who has many connections to the Evil Queen and her crow. Crowley experimented with Overblots in an abandoned mine based off the mine from the Evil Queens domain, leaving the phantoms wandering in the mine.

#my near daily theories always revolve around crowley haha #but i feel like i finally understand the dwarfs mine #because nothing made sense until i tried looking at the big picture AND Rooks chats #twst dire crowley #dire crowley #twst dwarfs mine #twst phantom #twst theory #twst #twst overblot #kallistopost

Analysis on TWST’s time loop theory

The time loop theory is popular among TWST fans. As I was trying to find similarities between Yuu and the protagonist(s) of each movie, I noticed how certain things about the latter and the order of the TWST chapters could support said theory.

Alice – Beginning

Among the main characters, she is one of the youngest and remains so till the end of her movie (along with a lack of character development), so it makes sense to have her at the beginning of the cycle. Her wish for a world of her own creation is what started her story, her venture into Wonderland.

Simba – Awareness

Like Alice, Simba wanted things to go his way and he thought being king meant no one would tell him what to do. He got a taste of the hardships of life first at the hands of the hyenas in the Elephant Graveyard (powerlessness) and next, by the death of his father (loss). Unable to face the trials and tribulations ahead of him, he exiled himself in a paradise-like location (his Wonderland) where he found contentment, but only on a superficial level. Eventually, his past caught up to him and told him to come back to reality, a life which consisted of more than just him, himself and he.

If we compare his young self’s idea of the position of king in his song, “I Just Can’t Wait to Be King”, and his ascendance to the throne at the end of the movie, we see his growth, from a child presenting his status of heir with great fanfare to an adult solemnly accepting the responsibilities of a ruler.

Ariel – Inquisitiveness

While Simba came to term with his purpose in life, Ariel was dissatisfied with the one given to her. Not only was she aware of a world beyond hers, but she wanted to be a part of it as well (reference not intended). Even with her father trying to extinguish her interest in the surface world, it didn’t waver, but instead double in intensity. As Aristotle said in Metaphysics (book 1, chapter 1): “All men by nature desire to know.” In other words, he could have never changed her nature.

Aladdin / Jasmine – Change

Going against a parent is one thing, but it’s another when the opposing party is the law. Aladdin and Jasmine may not come from the same social circle, but they both wanted more than what everyone around them said was their lot. The former was playing the system by disguising as a prince, changing himself (like Ariel) into what he thought was socially suitable, but the latter wanted to take it down because it wasn’t suitable for her.

Snow White – Hope

Snow White had also been trapped by circumstances outside of her control (she was supposedly 14 in the movie, barely a teenager), forced to be a servant in her own castle by the person supposed to provide and care for her. Despite said lifestyle, she remained steadfastly optimistic about her chances of getting (the change for) a happy ending.

Hercules / Meg – Deprivation

Sadly, not everyone, no matter how much they hope and pray, gets the happy ending they want easily. Hercules wanted a place to belong and thought he could find it among the gods of Olympus, but Zeus told him it can’t be given to him just because he had accomplished great feats. As a result, he had no idea on how to reach said goal. Meg had once been one of those girls who believed in the power of love and said belief got trampled by her own lover. As a result, she believed love brings you nothing but pain. In short, their optimism about the world they live in was dying.

Aurora – Withdrawal

Aurora was another character who had been denied what they wanted. She had dreamed of someone to spend time with and had found said person in Phillip whom she had met just shortly before she had learned the truth from her fairy godmothers (her royal status and her betrothal to a prince). Obviously, she didn’t take the revelation well.

And who else didn’t like the idea of being in an arranged marriage?

And what did she do?

See the similarities?

It was mostly the doing of Maleficent, but I want to believe Aurora pricked her finger on that spinning wheel out of her own volition on some degree. Just because she had accepted the title of princess along with the expectations and the duties attached to said position didn’t mean she mustn’t have felt some degree of trepidation in the face of such burden. A part of her had longed for the simple life of a peasant girl, when her dream had barely become true. So if said dream couldn’t come to reality, then she would retreat to the safety of her dream world (Wonderland) till the real world would conform to her wish.

So if Twisted Wonderland is the dream world created by Yuu based on and / or caused by events from their past, then that means they can go back to their world (or reality) only after they get what they want (or are forced to face the truth). Otherwise, they’ll be stuck in a time loop for the rest of their life.
