Hyperventilating. Where are you - why weren't you here? You were late. you were never late. It was your wedding day and yet 5 minutes have passed since the music started. He looks to his groomsmen; trey and cater, who were too busy in a silent argument.
Ace was supposed to get you, hand you off to your father, and join Deuce as your ā€˜groom of honorā€™ ( you insisted it was them and not some 'grossest' noblewoman)
But yet, you were late.
The Shrill of a seagull was heard as he glanced to the dock. Eyes gravitating towards the closed harbor. Like a fishbowl. The harbor was surrounded by beautiful cliffside meadows where you and Riddle would frolic to.
he almost smiles as he sees the color of the pansies and wildflowers in bloom. he couldn't help but reminisce about the time he found you. There in the apple tree, munching on a golden delicious as he demanded you to come down from there. Of course, you said 'no.' And claimed that you owned the tree.
And just like today, only a few ships are sailing in the harbor. A few chosen Heartsbyual and Pomefiore ships were allowed to sail.
His head slowly fell to the small audience. His mother deemed it only nectary to have a small venue to officiate it. Then put on a big show for your people.
Oh right- his mother.
He couldn't help but tense up as he met his mother's eye. The woman gestured to him to ā€˜smileā€™. Her example was more hypocritical than helpful as the scrunch on her brow and the painfully fake smile on her lips made her seem rather cynical.
But it was no use. The whispers were getting louder and the glances were getting harsher. Trey mumbled about how you were probably just nervous. That you would walk through that door and down that aisle any second now, a smile on your face and love in your eyes.
But nothing happened.
No dramatic entrance
No Ace beckoning Crewel or his mother
Nothing.
Only hushed silence was heard as the piano player stopped, and the flower girl and ring bearer joined their parents.
You had both talked about this. Both told each other about your worries about the wedding and about the future that seems closer than it is further. But he couldn't help wonder- Had you lied to him?
A hand met his shoulder. Treyā€™s comforting smile did nothing for his nerves as he told him he would go see if you were okay with Cater.
ā€œNoā€ Riddle whispered, eyeing his mother who was in a heated conversation with Crewel. ā€œThat would prove that something is wrong. And nothing is wrongā€ he could feel his teeth start to clench and his cheeks start to heat up.
But a quick few taps to his back had him taking deep breaths in, and deep breaths out.
Riddleā€™s mom stood up, giving Riddle a sideways glance as she muttered something to Crewel as she made her way to the door of the large balcony that was overseeing the cliffside, and by extension- the sea.
Riddle couldn't help but stare at the sea. Trey asked Cater if Crewel had allowed trade today due to the wedding. ā€˜Noā€™ Riddle thought, a churning feeling spreading throughout his gut as the ship went towards the apple pass. Both where you met and Riddle proposed.
ā€œYour highness! Admiral Rosehearts!ā€ The doors flung open with a slam. Ace Trapolla, your ā€˜man of honorā€™ bent over panting. Eyes flickering anywhere and everywhere. His suit was both sullied and wet. And so was the carpet as he dripped like a dog who just took a bath.
Riddle stepped down, eyeing Ace as they both held stern eye contact as Ace stomped towards him, ignoring his mother's questions.
ā€œY/n has been kidnapped!ā€
Ace gasped at the feeling of Riddleā€™s hands tightening around his. Trey Deuce and Caterā€™s collective gasps covered up the cowards as Riddleā€™s mother banished them from the ceremony. Not to even think about what happened when outside the palace.
ā€œWhat?ā€ Crewel raised from his front pew, loafers thundering as Riddle ran towards the banister, watching the ship disappear from the view in between the cliffs.
ā€œAce what the fuck do you mean my childā€™s been kidnapped? Where were you! Why didnā€™t you help them!ā€
ā€œI couldn't your highness! I wasn't ab-ā€œ
ā€œI save you from death all those years ago and- and this- this is how you repay me Trappolla?ā€ Crewel was screaming with anger. Grip getting ever so tighter on Aceā€™s ruined tux as a seam or two cried in agony.
ā€œWho.ā€ Riddle asks. Deep down already knew the answer as his back still faced the group. White paint chipped from his fingertips as his face blew up like a tomatoā€™s.
ā€œWhoā€
ā€œA pirate!ā€ Ace was thrown from Crewelā€™s grasp. Stumbling off to look at Riddle.
Crewelā€™s gasp could be heard. A heartbroken no slipped from his lips as his knees buckled, Deuce catching him as his cane wobbled from the unbalanced weight.
ā€œWhoā€
ā€œLeona Kingscholar! His men-ā€
Riddleā€™s hand shot out, silencing the young guard as Trey and Cater consoled the frazzled Ace. His mind and body separated as he kept mumbling obscenities.
Slamming his hand on the railing, nails forming indents on his palm as Trey swore the whole dock below them could hear Riddle's grinding teeth.
Riddle roared, pushing away from the banister as Trey and Cater followed quickly behind him. ā€œWhen I get my hands on him- itā€™ll be off his head!ā€
Tumblr media
š‹šžšØš§šš
The darkening clouds and restless sea were no problem for pirate lord Leona Kingscholar. He could steer his ship through a squall with his eyes closed.
The raging seas and tempests were what he lived for, what he craved for. As it spiced up his and the crew's experience. The latter later going ashore and bragging about how they were in the jaws of the leviathan, or a foot in Davy Jones's locker. But kicked and clashed their way out. As well as confirming how hardcore they were.
Especially as they were in the Octavinelle seas. Crawling- well treading with sea monsters that escaped the depths of hell and infested themselves in the sea of the damned.
Albeit Leona saw nothing wrong with it. Heā€™s killed his fair share of sharks and sirens. Not afraid to shoot at a looming shadow that seemed to follow stalk his crew.
But again- these were the Octavinelle seas. Where up was down, and back was forth and ahead they were entering the elephant's graveyard to escape those pesky navy men.
The elephant's graveyard.
A shipwreck hotspot that got its nickname years ago when a smuggling ship was carrying a couple of elephants. During the night, a baby worth a hefty penny had wandered too close to the railing. Losing its footing from the rocking of the boat. And fell.
Of course, the others went overboard too. There to save the young one, but ultimately meeting their fates at the hands of the abyss as their anger and betrayal brought down every ship that managed to sail in their graveyard.
But Leona didnā€™t believe in any of that.
The elephants were dead and their spirits had moved on. Thatā€™s it. End of story. Like most spirits who died at sea, they were collected, had their judgment day, and moved on. Reuniting at the pearly gates and all that other bullshit.
so once the weather started to pick up, bringing his hat from his chest. He went to work.
Leona would never, ever back down from a fight he couldn't win. But this one. He'd rather avoid it overall.
but the wind laughed crudely as it blew his sails in the wrong direction.
"Leona!" Ruggie called, eyes widening from the deck. Nervously fiddling his shirt as he recognized the wind's cruelness
"Leona get us the fuck outta ā€˜ere!"
"I'm trying! And if you would shut up I could concentrate! Hoist the colors!"
Leona Kingscholar slept with both eyes closed constantly. Not caring who said what or who did what. He wasn't afraid of any man, woman, or child that crossed his path- claiming they'd get revenge with snot running down their nose as brain gunk soon following.
No sea tale kept him up at night as he called out each flaw in each story someone would present to him
there was nothing he was afraid of...
Though he made sure to steer clear of Davy Jones's locker. And the man who just got promoted to run it.
Azul Ashengrotto.
The whistling winds started to sing, started to belt as the waves grew sadistic. Kissing the crew like a jealous lover as she pulled unlucky crewmen back with them.
His grip tightened at the helm. Eyes squinting from the spraying water, and teeth clenching from the sheer amount of effort it took to steer the ship around the eye of the storm.
Though he never crossed paths with Ashengrooto. A few close calls were all he remembered. He's heard rumors about the Monstro. How it plowed the eye of squalls. Letting the ocean rip and tear apart ships before swooping in like vultures and picking the scraps.
Scraps, men on the brink of death- same thing different story. He wasn't planning on handing his men over to that slimy captain and working hundred years- and for what? Delayed judgment? He laughs every time he thinks about it. If you didn't like what you did on the seas then you shouldn't have done it at all.
Or at least have pride in what you did. Like Leona
ā€œJackā€ he called. His yell was swept away by the wind as the latter was too busy securing the riggings and helping Ruggie bark orders in Leonaā€™s steed.
He couldn't let go of the helm, the winds as even a slip up would mean uncertain doom.
ā€œJackā€ he roared, catching the wolf's attention as water crashed from the sea and onto the deck.
He was seeing less and less of his crew and he didn't like that. Nor did he like the shadow of an ocean-scarred ship in the distance.
He gripped the helm tighter.
A crack of lightning struck the waves next to him. Just as an idea struck him. Spinning the helm aggressively to the left, he remembers what he told grim- you.
"That in a squall, no one would hear you. No one would care if you were thrown around like a rag doll since you were 'safely' below deck. Away from the harsh seas.
Though the flooding water always seemed to be a problem for Ruggie. Now for Leona as knee-deep water was perfect for a few stowaways
ā€œCheck the prisoners- nowā€
There was a vile, slimy taste in his mouth. A shiver racked up his spine. Not just from the tormenting waves that sprayed him causing his clothes to cling to his bones.
It was all too perfect. The rougher than usual storm, the constant sprays from the sea, the flinging of crewmates.
That blasted ship.
And that god-forsaken dream.
Azul Ashengrotto had something to do with this. Whether it was him wanting his crewmates for his own, something else, or both. All he knew was that there was more to this attack than he was led to believe.
And he didn't like that.
Thunder crackled through the sky, and another streak of lightning was seen. Thatā€™s twice now. In the same spot on his right.
ā€œCaptā€™n! Captā€™n!ā€ Jack came barreling up from the brig. Hat and bandana were long gone as he would undoubtedly catch a cold when this was done. A nasty one was his whole body was drenched. His shirt and pants were a part of him now as scratches decorated his chest.
His eyes lost and brows furrowed as he ran up the stairs and to the stern where Leona was.
ā€œTheyā€™re gone. The water was deeper than usual- up to my thighs as they had bite marks in them!ā€
Leona sucked his breath in. Not focusing on the news too much as he spun the helm quickly, avoiding another crashing wave.
ā€œThat slimy octo-fuckā€

Digital Fanbook: TWST Isekai AUs
Tumblr media
šŸŒŸ Digital PDFs are now available on my kofi here! šŸŒŸ
Following the theme of ā€˜isekai AUsā€™, this fanbook will feature 5 long oneshots where the reader is isekaied (transported into another world) in some capacity.
All 22 guys are featured, however their relationship with the reader is mainly general/platonic for inclusiveness!
āž”ļø 44,100+ words āž”ļø Reader insert, gender neutral reader (they/them) āž”ļø Full color cover illustrated by @tartppola!
The stories in this fanbook are not published on my blog, except for short excerpts as sneak peeks!
STORY SUMMARIES:
šŸŒ¹ Heartslabyul:Ā you wake up in the body of the protagonist from a novel. As ā€˜Alice Carrolā€™, you attempt to steer the story away from the tragedies of the novelā€™s plot, where Riddle Rosehearts, the crown prince, perishes as a tyrant.
šŸ¦ Savanaclaw:Ā in an unfamiliar world and body, you find yourself on the ship of theĀ ā€˜King of Piratesā€™, Leona Kingscholar (also a second prince who has since gone independent.)
šŸŒŠ Octavinelle + Ignihyde:Ā reincarnated as a human living at a seaside village, you get entangled in the world underneath the waterā€™s surface. It seems that there's a curse of some sort on merpeople, which the Sea Witch Azul is trying to lift.
šŸ‘‘ Pomefiore + Scarabia:Ā you're understandably confused when you're summoned as a ā€˜saintā€™ to the Pyroxene Kingdom. Between your role to assist in the crowning of the ā€˜fairestā€™ in the land, it's all you can do to stay out of trouble.
šŸ‰ Diasomnia:Ā isekaied into a story you were reading, you find yourself in a tough spot as the protagonist who infiltrates Briar Valley as an agent from the human kingdom. Is their POV of the story perhaps flawed in comparison to the friends you've found in the fae?

h m m ~ what's the first years occupation in the fairy tale au? are they also minions?
So, there's a reason why I called this au Fary tale universe
The others aren't specifically minions, they play the part of the main character that inspired their desing
I took creators liberty juice, so there are some changes, some small, some big, to give this an unique look I hope, being close enough to have similarity, but at the same time not being just a retelling of the Disney stories, you could say I made some twsts ;)
I sprinkled a bit of the RSA characters roles there as well bc I was inspired
Masterlist
šŸ’______________
Trey is the mad hatter
Cater the march hare
Ace and Deuce are new card soldiers
Che'nya is the Cheshire Cat
Twst Alice can have some short of situation were he is isekaied in and out of wonderland while he dreams
That doesn't mean Trey and Che'nya weren't Riddle's childhood friends
In this au the title of the villains is pass down from generations, so Riddle's mom was the queen of hearts and he is technically a prince, that made play time almost impossible, but bc the partys of the queen are mandatory for the kingdom they eventually met, and of course, it's set in stone for some families to attend, the same people that were invited to the first queen of hearts' tea party
šŸ„______________
Ruggie lives with the other hyenas beastman, banned from the kingdom I'm thinking too much about those implications, so I ask for you to think too
Jack is the trickiest bc we at least I have no idea who his main base is, it could be the beast or the wolves from beauty and the beast, or the big bad wolf, so I'll take creative liberty with him, so he's still in the savanaclaw section, let's say he's a sympathizer with the hyenas, this catches Leona's radar and he becomes one of his secret pride, for his schemes of course
Farena is the king that cares for his pride deply, and Cheka is the energetic little prince that can't wait to be king
Leona met Ruggie at his late teens, they both become acquaintances, Leona needed minions for his plan to dethrone Farena and be king, so he uses the hyenas, for now it's an strictly boss-minion relationship even if people say Ruggie's the right hand man, Leona denies it, Ruggie and the others respect Leona bc he provides more food than they could gather alone
Jack is new to the pride, but came to respect Leona by his strength and cunning nature, in his perspective Leona wants equality, and his naivety may have or not be affecting the lion, if it wasn't by the birth of his nephew Leona might have had changed his motivation to become king but the world works in unfair ways a chain can never be broken right?
Basicaly: Ruggie knows the truth about Leona's motivations, that they are all paws, but you play sides to survive isn't it? While Jack is the naivety of the hyenas that truly belived scar was doing this bc he cared
šŸŒŠ_____________
Jade and Floyd are Azul's childhood friends, wanting to cause havoc bc it's just fun, and Azul is the only one that let them be truly carefree and at the same time offer's protection and a place to sleep
Rielle being a son of the king, loving and wishing to live outside the sea permanently
The deep sea is truly uncaring to it's citizens, the unwanted in the caring arms of Atlants, set aside from their unconventional beauty and nature, many grew there, surviving from nothing, the sirens from the fishermans storyes and pirates chants
It is rare for siblings to be so close as them, for it's a world were the strong eat the weak, however even so, Jade and Floyd have survived so it isn't impossible with a little bit of empathy or perhaps a rebellious spirit
I'll go with the Ursula was Triton's sister story line I have heard, so Azul could be the nephew of the king, his family being cast to the deep sea from being "tricksters and witches of true nature", the three met at the time Azul started to realise the world is unkind and cold a very young age were no child should realise this, so someone has to be this kind person for those poor unfortunate souls right?
šŸŽ‰_____________
Kalim is a little tricky, I could made him the next sultan and twst jasmine one of his younger siblings. for reasons he doesn't know, yet, his family is in the throne line now
With Jamil still being his servant, but now, bc Kalim likes him so much, he's one step to become the next visier
Jafar's minions were the guards and Iago, so Jamil has the guards by default, since he's the visier
Jafar hadn't a clear reason to why he wanted to become sultan, except be in the top of the hierarchy I think, but Jamil is way more complex than this, so he wants to get back to all those stupid nobles that treated him like shit, at any cost possible, even if this mean manipulating Kalim's will
šŸ‘ _____________
Rook is the son of a huntsman family loyal to the queen, automatically making him one of Vil's most thrust worthy man
Epel is the apple, so maybe he just makes deliveries to the castle and one day picked a fight, with the fucking prince bc of couse he did, and now is a servant of said prince
Neige could be Vil's half sibling? So he has the plot of snow withe, growing up with vil and all, and bc of his looks the citizens favors him even if Vil is the next in line
The kingdom of the evil beauty queen is decaying day by day, so it's no surprise that rumors arise once it's back with full force
Rumors of human experimentation for new medicine, of poison being mass produced to the black market, of the queen being the devil in disguise, nobody cares if the kingdom is still standing, they care to know about the how
šŸ’»_____________
Ortho is the little brother of Idia as always, I've this idea that he's human instead of a God/demigod/robot, so he can die unlike his brother, so idia does the forbidden and strikes a deal with fate(s), his brother is immortal and he will play his part in this bloody loop, he doesn't like Olympus either he suspects it was them that killed ortho's godhood anyway so it's not a big sacrifice anyway
Twst Hercules I'm so tempted to call him Heracles, suffered the same fate as ortho, but has no pity from Idia, the guy is a himbo only wanting his blood father's approval
Hades hadn't a big motive to why he wanted to take Olympus down, just bc they put him in a shitty place, but idia is way more in the chill part with being isolated, that's why I changed his motivations
On that note, Hades minions were mostly the imps and all monsters he striked a deal with, so I'll just apply this to Idia to
šŸ‰____________
Lilia is Malleus mentor and babysitter only member alive of his family, the only bat in sleeping beauty appear briefly in a spell Maleficent casts, so maybe lilian was there from the beginning, seeing history repeats itself over and over, never having a diferent start or end until you/yuu came of course
Sebek is one of Malleus minions, his base is the imps so it's easy
Silver, I think in this he's a childhood friend of twst Philip, bc he's mainly inspired in the sword that bans evil, he has many of Aurora's traits, how about Philip having a little/big crush, so in homage, and bc I want some of the dynamics to stay a lil bit same, Lilia still rised him in a cottage
Silver and Sebek trained together, there is a heavy prejudice between humans and faries, sebek knows this very well, so even if he still rejects his human side, he can't help but sympathize with Silver
Malleus doesn't know about this tho, so look out for that, humans took too much from him already
āœ’__________
For context, that meeting Yuu/you crashed is like the villains league Disney loves to do in Halloween, an old alliance between the seven most powerful and morally dark (that's what the heroes say at least) families, it was disabled long ago, but this new generation revived it
They were trying to change fate by summoning a being so powerful that fate can't chain, that reality can't contain, that time has forgotten, a Demon whose name is forbidden... but then they got you/yuu instead bc someone messed up, try to guess who were they ;)

hi im the anon that was asking about the boot gems. So uh I have to ask another question. Are the overblots going to be in the story like riddles overblot, jamils, azul, idia, and etc. cus like what if riddle overbloted after y/n got kidnapped I got questions!!! Answer meee pls!!! Anyways love ya! Continue the twst pirate au!!
hello anon <33
i decided to answer this ask first mainly because itā€™s been a while since i looked or even wrote for twst pirate au. iā€™ve been meaning to get back into it so your ask(s) came at a good time šŸ¤­
unfortunately twst pirate is a non overblot / non ā€˜magicā€™ au. there will still be potions and stuff tho. the closest thing to being an overblot will be azulā€™sā€¦ form, when heā€™s not cosplaying a human.
i mainly got inspired from pirates of the caribbean (had a huge 1 week phase with that lol)
but honestly, iā€™m gonna restructure and re plot the whole thing just because i never really had a completed plot line for it. iā€™m planning on rewriting chapter one, and uploading some old works to this account from my old account when iā€™m ready to start nose diving into it šŸ¤­
but donā€™t worry anon, i have plans to continue with the pirate au and it shoulllllld be coming out in the summer months when i have more time šŸ¤­

I imagine Riddle chasing down the pirates that want to take mc as their own for whatever purposes. Ace must feel guilty about putting mc in danger even though he joined the navy to protect her.
oh my god. okay so, iā€™m actually writing a series of scenarios where m/c escapes / gets kidnapped from each captain.
and let me tell you- ace feels absolutely horrible
not even crewelā€™s punishments and berating can snap him out of the trance like state he was in.
others see it as survivors guilt. but cater knows something happened. riddle and crewel are just focused on getting you back. (but that wonā€™t stop cater from whispering into riddle and crewelā€™s ears..)
and so when riddle offered him, and by extension deuce- an opportunity to get you back, they jumped at it and joined the navy
thinking about it more, i feel like ace and deuce would first be your guards, then join the navy to get y/n back, cause i feel like itā€™d be too convenient?? plus they wanna pay you and crewel back for taking them in when they were younger šŸ˜æ
but riddle is definitely chasing down leona and his crew. and when he realizes youā€™re no longer there- he grows mad
literally
but he also starts seeing how fun it is to be a loose canon šŸ‘€

please tell us more about childhood friend azul. What did Riddle do to ruin it??
okay okay- i wont give up how they met or the beginning of their relationship due to the progression of the story, and iā€™m still working out some kinks in their relationship, but!
chilhood friend azul! who youā€™d see once a week on saturdays. meeting him in a cave that has turns from sand to rocks, as vines hang from its stone structure. where beams of sun would shine through and warm the exposed salty water
childhood friend azul! who would excitedly ā€˜sneak outā€™ of his home in at a first flimpse of sun light, holding a new sea treasure he found while hiding in a crate from his bullies.
childhood friend azul! who thought he was being slick with his adventures to the surface to meet his new friend- when in reality his mother and step father would sneak around after him. first concern written was written on their faces. but soon turned into hushed giggles and gentle slaps one they realized he was sneaking out to court another- more specifically you
(of course they sat him down and embarrassed him- but hey, thatā€™s what parents are for šŸ¤·šŸ»)
and when you finally went into the water with him, bathing suit on as you and azul excitedly splashed around for minutes, which turned out to be hours as streaks of orange and blue painted the skies through the hole in the rock. azul took hold on your hand, cheeks matching the beautiful conch shell he gave you as he told you that one day, he was going to bring you to meet his parents, and show you around the his home town.
childhood friend azul! who would always laugh and joke with you when you told him about your latest escape from your two watchful guards- ace and deuce if he recalled. how they both fell for the ā€˜hey look! a pirate ship!ā€™ prank as you rushed passed them, bag that was filled with utensils clanking away like a robber.
oh how he envied you. able to walk, run, play- with friends none the less. how he had once tried to join you on land, but immediately hopped back into the water after he was awkwardly moving around,, you giggles ringing in his ears as he hid himself under a rock. though with your hand you were able to pull him out. staring into his eyes as you told him you were going to find a way to turn him human. even if just for a day so he could meet your friends, your dad and enjoy a day on land
of course he couldnā€™t stop thinking about that, spends hours of the weekdays going to libraries, listening to witch doctors- anything or anyone that had any idea about transformation magic
childhood friend azul! didnā€™t like the boy with red hair you brought with you one day. eyes like blood and a scowl deeper than a blob fish, who pulled you aside all the whole giving azul that look. he didnā€™t need to hear to know what he was saying, heā€™s heard it all before. though azul couldnā€™t help but smirk at the red head as you pushed him back, yelling at him for even muttering those words about your friend- your best friend.
of course, at the time azul wouldnā€™t know why that made his stomach churn, as the only thing he was focused on was the red heads surprised look. so this is what it felt to be in power? he could see why people liked it, knowing you had one up the other party, seeing someone that irritated you upset or put below felt ratherļæ¼ exhilarating.
though that didnā€™t last longā€¦ as azul was roaming the shoreline a month having already passed by like a flash. earlier that day, per usual azul was hiding from his bullies when he had found a sand dollar! one in ļæ¼pristine condition none the less! he remembered you banking on about always wanting one, about how youā€™ve only managed to collected washed up ones that either had huge dents in them, or were smashed to pieces.
oh you were going to be so lucky! if he could find it againā€¦ but the sun was setting and it was getting dangerous out, so he had to be quick. but the sudden human cheering and harsh lights drew his attention- it was a boat! a heartsbyual boat he saw in the harbor long ago when you both first metā€¦
but why was it in pomefiore territoryā€¦ at sunsetā€¦ no- he remembers where his curiosity got him last time and he wonā€™t do it againā€¦ he still had to look for the sand dollar after all!
though the sudden shout of your name had him swimming closer to the large white ship, and the crowd grew silent. but as he swam he caught sight of you!- oh and that must be your dad, the one in the fur coat with split hair! and the blue and red haired boys standing at your flanks must have been ace and deuce!! and that blonde boy whispering in your ear must have been vil! from what he heard, theyā€™d get along swimmingly!
he felt his hair stutter a bit as he let his mind wander a bit, about what itā€™s be like for him to be up there, with you and your friends- even what itā€™d be like for you to be down in the ocean with his family! as his mom and dad already know you by name, and would be able to spot you from a mike away with how much he talks about you!
though his cheeky smile faltered when he caught sight of the short red head- riddle again. and a woman dressed in military wear who was talking, but that didnā€™t matter as he just focused on you. how the black and white suit you wore was so ļæ¼ intricately designed he would have thought it was from a fairy tail. the matching did coat you wore hind from your shoulders as you wore a crown on your head, itā€™s red jewelā€™s two king under the lights as the silver holding them was shimmering, azul guessed it was just polished for said event.
it was hard for him to see, so using his tentacles, he climbed up the side of ship as his hands gripped the oak flooring, a puddle of water dripping from it as his eyes drank everything up. that was until riddle started talking, making him cringe as he walked closer to you, vil ace and deuce awkwardly shuffling aside as he slowly walked towards you, his white suit and red and black side cape fluttering behind him as he finally took your hands in his.
but before he could hear what happened next, azul slipped, sliding against the polished boat as a loud sound happened. cringing, he ducked his head in shame as slowly climbed up again, eyes barely floor level when a pair of crimson eyes stared right back at him.
he almost dipped again out of fright. holding in a gasp as riddle look at him in surprise, voice dying out in his throat as his eyes bugged out of his head. though- from who he assumed was his mom- told him to keep going. nodding slowly, riddle face you again, gloved hands in one another as riddles hand moved to your arm, learning you to stay side by side with the banister.
ā€œy/n divius. iā€™ve known you for almost my whole life now, 5 years to be exact. and i know weā€™re still young, only 9 and 8ā€¦ butā€ he got down on one knee ā€œwould you become my fiancĆ©?ā€
like the sea witch herself struck him through the heart, azulā€™s head spun as his eyes widened identical to a guppy as you both gasped. your hands flying to your mouth as you looked to your dad, who nodded with a smile as you hesitantly acceptedā€¦ and that was all it took for riddle to hold you close, and swoop in.
some noble woman swooning about how ā€˜romantic young love isā€™, calling him a ā€˜casanovaā€™ of elbowing their husbands as your three friends all wore faces of either shock of disgust.
but the damage was down, and with an ink trail behind him azul did what he did best, run away. but this time, of a broken heart as all his dreams and fantasies of you shattered like a sand dollar. and you never heard from or saw azul againā€¦
until a decade laterā€¦.

cw : mentions of murder, implied drowning, violence
brr pirate azul making unfair contracts / trades so youā€™ll always be indebted to him. and if you even try to pull one in him heā€™s have no problem releasing the kraken on both heartsbyual and pomefioreā€™s navy šŸ™ˆ
brr pirate jade forcing you to look out to the sea where bloated bodies and pieces of broken wood float. telling you that thatā€™ll be you if you donā€™t stop complaining šŸ™ˆ
brrr pirate floyd using a traitorous crew member as an example. laughing in your face as he brutally murders him. saying itā€™s all your fault, that heā€™d still be alive if he hadnā€™t tried helping you escape. šŸ™ˆ

Poor Riddle his fiancƩ got kidnapped by pirates and now is out for blood. Mc being taken by Azul to the bottom of the sea was great. I imagine mc clinging onto Grim as the seawater rises in their cell and a pair of tentacles start dragging them down.
yes yes poor riddle šŸ˜æ
everything was going to work out for him. heā€™ll get his dream position, heā€™ll make everyone proud, and heā€™ll get what heā€™s always wanted - you
and yet- nothing ever seems to work out for him. why is it always him who gets the short end of the stick?
but donā€™t worry. heā€™ll get you back- be the pride and joy of both heartsbyual and pomefiore.
and again you. so like the heroes in those stories his mother used to read him when he was little. heā€™s on his way to save his ā€˜damsel in distressā€™
while having an identity crisis šŸ˜ø
and let me TELL YOU- grim was literally using your head as a stepping stool to try and escape the rushing waters.
LIKE CLAWING AT YOUR FACE, MESSING UP YOUR HAIR AS A BLAST OF WATER THAT MISSED THROUGH THE SLIT PUSHED HIM OFF
and honestly- pirate azul seems like he wouldnā€™t do smthn himself- instead have a crew member or one of the twins doing his dirty work as thereā€™s just so much to do šŸ˜ŖšŸ’”
but for this ā€˜missionā€™ you bet azul had something planned. was planning a whole scene where heā€™d waltz up on deck, having lighting flash as he reveals his octo form-
but no
floyd just HAD to have a mood, slink off from jade more like jade let him and ripped you and grim out from ā€˜prisonā€™ and into azulā€™s loving grasps
oh well, less work for azul igšŸ¤·šŸ»šŸ¤·šŸ»

bestie iā€™m begging on my knees hereā€¦ please give us more pirate AU, my childhood love of pirates is resurfacing rn and iā€™m just [SCREAMS]. hereā€™s a question: is there anyone y/n actually trusts in this AU? also, iā€™m a bit confused about the timeline, did Ace leading them through that shortcut you mentioned lead to them getting kidnapped? does he feel BAD that they got kidnapped lmao? and does Riddle actually love y/n if he was so distraught? ARGH SO MANY QUESTIONS PLS FEED US!!
teheh šŸ™ˆ
iā€™m smiling so wide you donā€™t even know
iā€™m so happy that a lot of people are liking my pirate au cause the amount of BRAINROT and scenarios i wanna write is just MASSIVE
and i hope youā€™re hungry- cause papaā€™s got some things to say šŸ‘“šŸ»
okay okay- yes. ace is a snake šŸ¤„ he wanted to play hero, get a promotion, a smooch but didnā€™t understand that pirates, areā€¦ wellā€¦ pirates. and if youā€™re not a pirate then their word doesnā€™t mean shit.
so here he is, hiding the fact that the reason why you were kidnapped, riddle went through an identity crisis, and that savanaclaw has leverage over the entire pomefiore kingdom- is because of himā€¦
whoops šŸ¤·šŸ»šŸ¤·šŸ»
I WANT TO KEEP RIDDLE AND READERS RELATIONSHIP UP TO INTERPRETATION!!
though, i definitely think that riddle and reader were childhood lovers? like you innocently said you wanted to marry your ā€˜wery bestfwiend viddleā€™ and his mom fuckING RAN with that
and your dad saw no harm done as you would have a (future) navy admiral / childhood friend as a husband and the political relationship between heartslabyul and pomefiore would strengthen
but you definitely saw it as smthn you didnā€™t have a choice in. not knowing that this was a choice. that at anytime you could annul the marriage. yet no one made you aware of that fact.
not your dad, not riddle, and definitely not riddles mother (who insists you call her mom)
so when you get cold feetā€¦ you think nothing of ace wanting to talk while bringing you to a ā€˜short cutā€™ā€¦ šŸ˜³
also- riddleā€™s mom is the current admiral, and is planning to pass down the title to her son as a ā€˜wedding giftā€™
no pressure šŸ˜øšŸ‘

Pirate AU MC but they have more agency than people give them credit for from the start. They aren't manipulating anyone per say, they're just used to acting the way everyone expect them to (cough riddle n his mom and also vil cough). To people around, MC is sheltered, naive, somewhat aloof, the only interesting thing about them being in the possession of the key. This can't be further from the truth
MC has a wild streak, quick thinking and a sharp toungue to match. However throughout MC's entire life they were discouraged (mb non-directly) from that behaviour, making them repress that side of personality, becoming more quiet and melancolic on the outside as a result, while having a storm inside. This was reaffirmed multiple times in their life, that they would be better off just going with the flow, letting people see what they want to see - a damsel in distress from a wealthy family
They still retain the thirst for any kind of practical knowledge they can put hands on in secret. I figure, it's not very common for a person of MC's status to know how to heal wounds or something. It is a work for a medic, not a noble. But they helped Jack that one time
Then MC does shit like pick a cell lock with a hairpin, steal some gold and sail the sea on a stolen boat in the dead of night after they've been kidnapped
The guys say MC shouldn't trust a pirate, but beliving that Yuu is any different in that regard is a folly. For all they know, Yuu might just have a goal of their own
They learn people are after the key, and hold it above their kidnappers' heads. Like that scene with a medalion, where Elizabeth (i think) threatened a whole crowd with throwing it into the sea
Imagine this:
"you've changed, Yuu. I no longer recognize you, what happened? It was bad, wasn't it? Let's go home"
"nothing has changed, riddle. it's just that all these years you only knew the part of me i let you see"
OH MY GOD

i was gonna go for them to be naive and innocent just the full blown disney princess mo
but i really like this better
crewel didnā€™t like your mischievous streak at. all.
crewel didnā€™t like your mischievous streak at. all.
when your mother was around, she would encourage you to climb the trees in the royal garden, use the stone banisters as a tight rope youā€™d see in the circus.
though that all changed when she died. the castle became colder, gloomier, every time you walked down the large empty hallways youā€™d get a slap on the wrist for a downcast gaze or stray hair.
it was a funeral march.
with every step forward you were forgetting about your past, about your joys and memories as those useless memories were filled up with rules and ļæ¼ etiquettes. crewel made sure every royal tutor crammed more and more useless information into your brain so you could one day ā€˜serve the people of pomefioreā€™
itā€™s like crewel jumped at the opportunity to mold you into the perfect child.
you learned to stay quiet.
stay poised and never to bite back
not to run
not to jump
not to smile to widely or the make up you had on would smudge
not to slurp, sip, or chew too loudly
shoulders back, chest puffed, head straight, and hands always on your lap no matter the occasion
and always to wear rose queen ā€˜85
it feels like you havenā€™t smiled or laughed in years, always struggling giggles or putting practice to use with your smiles.
that when you were out in the seas and were criticized for your dainty mannerisms- you had to do a double take
mid you think leona was about to let you do your two showers a day skin care routine you were dead wrong. not once did he let you in a shower- opting to instead dip you into the ocean with a soap bar to ā€˜go crazyā€™
you were squirming in your own skin! how the hell did leona live like this?? how did any of them live like this?!!?
you went back to your pampered ways when you saw azul though.
but leonaā€™s mark was still there as you only showered once and started to speak your mind a bit more, slowly breaking through that invisible prison that kept you and your younger self away.
sometimes you dreamed about them. your head in your own lap as they stared down at you with a small smile, tooth missing from either getting twacked by a branch or from naturally falling out- memories blurring together or down right lying to you.
but all you know is that when you get back to crewel, he is absolutely horrified

Hi sun anon here! first off for the fanart wth do we wear like we got kidnapped in our wedding dress so uh what would our wedding dress look like also what do you want us to look like?
I leave the interpretation of the reader up to you!
at first the reader got kidnapped in their wedding dress. back then I wanted it to be a pantsuit with a cape. even with some colors for the Pomefiore kingdom-
but reader is definitely in over the top- everything
but thinking about it now, since reader was getting married to riddle it would be a more 'pure' dress (especially with his mom yikes,) but crewel and vil would definitely make sure it was elegant, yet stylish.
its funny thinking about reader in an over the top puffy wedding dress stumbling 'down to the docks' and jack trying to kidnap her but all the tulle and mountains of fabric getting in his way and blocking his vision. he swears he's gonna be spitting tulle out for the next week like a cat spits out a hairballšŸ˜­
(you're rich, it doesn't matter if he destroys it, right? you can buy a bigger, puffier one when he returns you anyways)
UGH THE DRESS IS SO UGLY TO READER- it looks like one of those spring prom dresses the girls from the southern u.s are wearing. reader definitely thinks its over the top but crewel and vil know what they're doing, right? if they say she looks good then she must look, regardless of her... opinions
tdlr: reader hates the dress. but she must wear it for her father, riddle and vil. plus symbolism for down the line
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
this is actually helping me if envisioning the reader and the plot (making it easier to plan)
thank god reader was kidnapped, cause riddle would get swallowed alive if he stood next to that dressšŸ˜­šŸ˜­
(I leave the creative freedom up to you šŸ«¶)
