I know this is going to make me sound pretensions but I have to get it off my chest. I feel an unimaginable rage when someone posts a photo and is like "this picture looks like a renaissance painting lol" when the photo clearly has the lighting, colors and composition of a baroque or romantic painting. There are differences in these styles and those differences are important and labeling every "classical" looking painting as renaissance is annoying and upsetting to me. And anytime I come across one of those posts I have to put down my phone and go take a walk because they make me so mad
When you live for centuries, you can see the extremities of time flowing around you. Your skin never fades, but your mind is always scratching itself with wisdom. Like sandpaper, it whittles just the top, things that aren't important to have. You find yourself carving out memories in wood and writing conversations in books. You convince yourself of the immortality of the written word, yet fail to recognize the wilting of paper.
Did you forget who they were? Who you were around them was different than who you are now. Your mind lives with termites and book worms. Faces crinkle and crack as time gives their once youthful faces wrinkles. Even fire is dangerous. Burning through a library of stories told only by yourself.
Did you know when you were young? As time speeds by, their faces get harder and harder to remember. Once they left you, once you left them. The pictures in your mind only remained for so long. Sure others could speak of them, but what happened to the words of the story? Twisted after every passing. Will they even live in the future?
You may be infinite, but your mind will forever be landscaped. Soon you will look in the mirror, and see a different person than you ever were. Your eyes are almost the same. But they’re scared. What you see is different from what you saw when you were young. Were you ever young? Or have you been stuck being fleetingly curious.
You look in the mirror at your own reflection, your own perfect body. And realize, you’ve changed. You may have forgotten them, their words barely living on paper. But you’ve found yourself able to move on. They’ve helped you through life, and living forever has never really helped anyone.
Ordinary (song fic)
Before you start (BB) is best boy so you can insert your favourite Twisted Wonderland boy, mc is also gender neutral. Song is from the Owl House. It’s also my first song fic so if it sucks I’m sorry.

Walking to Ramshackle with (BB) and Grim, as all three of them had a lovely conversation. As (BB) looks at mc with such love in his eyes as he laughs at one of the magicless human jokes. As mc walks in Ramshackle with Grim they say their goodbyes until the movie night. As mc close the door they let out a sigh as the hit their head on the door.
I notice how he looks at me
But I pretend that I don’t see
It’s easier if I let the tension subside
As mc picked up the novel they were reading, as time passed they got closer to the ending of the book. As they finished reading “And they lived happily ever after.” They had thrown the book half way across the room and it opened to a random page. Mc sat up and petted Grim as he slept peacefully. At they stood up to get the book the thought of (BB) filled their head with the ending of the book.
I’ve seen it in the books I read
A magic you cannot see
There’s no limitations
They were it with pride
But the charters I read, never act or look like me
I can’t depend on ‘em to lead me through the right door
Mc picked up the book and put it back on the shelf were it belongs, then headed for their room. Walking in their room they sat at the small table that was littered with papers and books. The perfect got to work finding away home along with trying to ignore the thought of (BB) that plagued their mind. Soon memories of home started to fill their minds. The school they went to where they could disappear into the crowds and find their friends. Talking simply could mess up the simplest words and being ordinary was hard to do.
And what’s the point of falling when I know I’m only stalling?
‘Cause I have to go back home
Where I’m just one of the herd
Tripping over my words
Trying hard to go with the grain
Keeping the quirks in my brain
I’m on the brink of discovery, I think
But what if I’m dreaming?
That’s what it seems like
Hearing a knock at Ramshackle snapped the lost human out of their thoughts. Running down the stairs they stoped in the hallway looking at the door, as thoughts of one day leaving them alone as they would have to leave to go back home. Slowly walking towards the door they put their hands that was shaking on the door handle, then slowly opened it.
‘Cause this boy thinks I’m part of his world
And that new territory is scary
If I turn the handle, am I asking for a scandal?
Should I try to be ordinary?
As (BB) walks in holding some snacks he smiles at Mc not knowing he was causing their heart beat to become much faster. “Let’s go to the main room,” Mc said trying their hardest to sound normal. The duo headed to the common room as (BB) asks, “so what movie are we watching?”
“I couldn’t pick so who about you pick a movie?”
“How about (Random movie title)?”
“Ok that sounds good.”
In the middle of the movie (BB) moved closer to mc.
“This is a good movie... right?”
“Yes it is.”
“Goooood.”
Baaah!
I’ve always been a little odd
The only pea inside the pod
That’s not an expression, I’m guessing
Oh well
The next day you were walking to class with Grim. Looking to see (BB) talking with someone, he also looks up to make eye contact with the love sick perfect. Sending a smile that made the perfect breath become caught in their throat. Quickly they turn around and hurry to a bathroom leaving Grim behind.
See? That’s exactly what I mean
I’m just as awkward as I seem
Plus, he make me nervous
I hope he can’t tell
Splashing some cool water on their face as their hands shack with every movement, letting out the air that the young human chocked on. Raising their head to look in the mirror thoughts of home filled their head. The smell of (favourite dinner), the awkwardness you would face when the teacher randomly called on them (it hasn’t changed). Home all my wants is to go home.
What is it he sees, in this cluster clump of me?
Or, could it be I’m going crazy?
Any hey? Who am I kidding?
This isn’t some sweet beginning
Just a detour to the end!
Then back to the herd
Tripping over my words
Trying hard to go with the grain
Keeping the quirks in my brain
I’m on the brink of discovery, I think
But what if I’m dreaming?
After the morning meeting mc started to avoid (BB) thinking if they ignore him the feelings will go away and he will get use to not having them around. It was harder then they thought along with the feeling of emptiness the envied the magicless student heart. After school they sat looking out the window at the stars, putting a hand over their heart tears slowly fell from their eyes filled with loneliness.
Do I rewind? Induce amnesia?
Pretend I didn’t see him?
Succumb to stupid fear?
Or just believe in my heart?
All of the time that they didn’t get to hang out, realization of the past from their world. Mc had never fitted in before it was hard to be ‘normal’ according to society, Twisted Wonderland was the first time they have ever felt ‘normal’. No one judge people based on weird quirks that people may have. Picking up their phone they sent a text message to (BB).
Mc- Hey come to Ramshackle I want to tell you something
Why play a part?
Why follow the herd?
Why not trust in my words?
Don’t wanna go with the grain!
Why try to make myself plain?
I’m on the brink of rediscovery, I think
(BB): Sure, I’ll come to Ramshackle. What is the reason?
Mc- Doesn’t matter just come!
(BB): Ok, on my way.
A smile appeared on the perfects face as they raced to the bathroom to wash their tear stained face. As they shook practiced what they were going to say in their head a knock could be heard through out the ran down dorm. The human seemed to jump and run through air until their feet hit the ground, but that was only until they got to the stairs. Taking a deep breath they started down the stairs o the door.
So what if I’m dreaming?
I like the scene that I’m in!
And this boy is apart of this world
The thought of being normal is far more scary
Opening the door (BB) stood their look worried. “Is everything ok?” He asked in a worried tone.
“Yes everything is fine.”
“Then way were you avoiding me all day today?”
“I just thought if I ignore the feeling it would go away.”
“Ignore what feeling? That doesn’t really answer my question.”
“I’m going to leave soon... so I just wanted you to get use to me not being here.”
“Leave? Your not going anywhere, are you Mc?”
“I don’t belong here.. but I just can’t go without you knowing how I truly feeling.”
The magicless perfect tool a deep breath in and looked at (BB) dead in the eyes.
I’ll be brave and I’ll be kind
I’ll make a choice and change my mind
I will mess up all the time
They’ll say I’m weird but I’ll be fine
I’ll be anything but ordinary!
“All I want to say is that I love you.”
#I hope they feel like Italian today
What if mc was from Little Nightmares and there were two of them. Two children that don’t trust anyone but each other, as that’s how its always been. Yuu and Night they have been together since they were five, only ten years old and grown into a new world.
———
The duo would scare everyone, as they are both really small but are strong and surprisingly athletic. They each have their own words they know. Yuu knows: yes, no, Night, help, Yuu, here. While Night knows: ok, no, hungry, help, over here, Night, Yuu. Other than those words they don’t talk.
Both have the awful habit of not eating until they are about to die and they have no problem taking the food from anyone when hungry. They have taken food from students, Grim, teachers even diasomnia students. It wasn’t until Trey started to give them food did they start eating a little more.
Getting adopted by Lilia after Yuu trips and falls near him. Ace, Deuce and Grim are panicking as a child fell and they aren’t crying. Night just looks at Yuu as they stand up and brush them self off. Lilia sees Yuu’s knee bleeding and they just walk like it’s normal. Not on papas Lilia watch, he swoops in pick Yuu and Night up to bring them both to diasomnia.
While he treats Yuu’s knee he gets a closer look at them. Eyes that seem dead, hair that covers their face, cold to the touch and injury’s that never seemed to be treated. That’s until he hear crashing coming from the common room along with yelling. Running down he saw blood, Night be restrained and someone looking terrified.
Night had gotten hungry so he was about to eat the snack Lilia made and left out. Someone took the snacks away from them not wanting to deal with a child screaming about an upset stomach. He crouched down to eye level for the child and you can guess what happened next.
This caused Lilia to go though the duo memories with the teachers and other students. After seeing what the two children had to do to live had every set on keeping them here for now on.
As someone in the Bungo Stray Dogs and Twisted Wonderland fandom we have some crossover here and there. But what if I do Child!BSD!MC with an ability.
You can’t stop me I already have ideas!
He is so pretty!
[this is pretty long and if you don't know what tloz is you're free to ignore!!]
Hey! I had an The Legend of Zelda brainrot recently and i was thinking, what if MC was a hylia? Specifically from ocarina of time or breath of the wild?
Maybe they're also aquainted with the champions(i don't remember if the term champion goes for ocarina of time as well) + Link and princess Zelda so they always brag about them and talk a lot about all of the realms there.
They also like to show off their sheikah slate/magic ocarina (let's pretend the princess entrusted those to MC for the sake of the plot) to the others, along with their fighting skills.
How would they react?
Btw you're free to ignore if i'm bothering you!! Your writings are so good!!(≧▽≦)
Mc was close friends with the champions, along with Link and Zelda. Mc grew up along side the duo, they trained physical with Link and their magic with Princess Zelda. Mc was given the title of champion and one of the princess personal knights or what ever Link is called. After the champions lost and Link was given the blow the knocked him out, princess Zelda gave Mc the role to protect Link when he rests. She gave them her sheikah slate for the time being and to become Links guide for when he awakes.
———
Mc was minding their business when they were taken to Twisted Wonderland let’s say 50 years before Links awakens.
———
Ace: Yuu aren’t you from another world?
Mc: Yes.
Ace: So in your world do you have faes?
Mc: No we don’t.
Deuce: Then why are your ears pointy, like a fae?
Mc: I’m a hylia!
Ace: That is?
Mc: I’m a hylia!
———
Yuu starts training with the rest of Diasomnia for fun and to be strong when Link will need them.
------
Mc: That was really fun thank you for letting me join!
Sebek: You should try out to be one of my masters knights.
Mc: I am a champion for my princess, so no.
Sebek: Then you left her side to come here? What kind of guard would leave their master!?!
Mc: Well unlike you I am well aware that the one I protect can keep their head above water themselves! I was also given a mission to protect someone how is even more powerful that we will need soon!
Sebek: The where are they?
Mc: In my world... Link... w-w-what if he wakes up? And I-I-I'm not there to help him?
Lilia: Yuu whats the matter?
Mc: It's been 50 years since all of the deaths of the champions, Link most likely has memory loss and I have the sheikah slate to help him get them back.
------
Over time Mc become more open about what happened and started to get more daring and fearless.

no cishets at pride! *spin kicks a grandma with a “I love my gay son” tshirt*
