Aria's Unique Magic

I just remembered a problem I'm facing with my twisted wonderland fanfiction.

Thankfully it's something I can put off addressing for now but this issue will catch up with me eventually.

The issue: nicknames

Specifically what would Rook and Floyd nickname my OCS.

Thankfully for Yuzu and Yumi I can just use Trickster and Shrimpy.

However I still have no idea what they would call Sian or Aria as a nickname.

she found a flower for you!

This was Patrξon's May Illustration ✨✨

Found family is the best family.

never mind i found the draft i thought i lost. It accidentally posted but i didn't see or noticed it at first until after someone liked the post XD

so, i first copy what accidentally posted back into the drafts (and saved it) before deleting the one that accidentally got posted. imma save a backup on word document just in case.

At least i dont have to start over from scratch now. definitely need to take that break tho regardless.

How did Aria Cross worlds in each timeline (more detailed)

Content warning: mentions someone almost getting hit by a car. failed kidnapping attempt mentioned.

So how did Aria end up in the magic less world?

Aria is a Half-Fae with a large mana pool and great affinity for magic. Aria lives in the Queendom of Roses which has more human than beast folk, merman or Fae around. This isn't mentioned in game but for this story majority of the Clock Town living here didn't have a considerable amount of magic/mana pool.

Basically, Aria lived in a place not brimming full of Fae magic and no one with considerable mana pools/magic to properly teach Aria proper control of her own magic.

Normally this isn't an issue for most kids. Since majority of them can barely use or access their magic at such a young age. A good example of this is Deuce who could only summon Cauldrons before attending NRC. Aria had a huge mana pool and could access it on instinct occasionally since she was 4 years old. Poor Ms. Whitecourt probably made raising Aria more stressful than she expected.

For both timelines it turns out it was easier to use magic teleportation to end up in another world more so than trying to use magic to leave one that possess no magic.

Aria's mana pool was diminished and drained upon walking up in another world. Without the means to replenish her magic regardless of sleep since the world started to suppress her magic the longer, she remained in this unfamiliar world. Aria got officially stuck in another world unable to return immediately after arrival.

For timeline two Aria got spooked and startled. Her reflexes sending her to another world via teleportation.

With no clear destination in mind upon teleporting she ended up somewhere she shouldn't have a place that was more of a challenge to leave rather than arrive at. Aria wakes up in the magic less world stuck until Night Raven College managed to send her back to twisted wonderland.

I think I figured out and decided what exactly spooked/startled Aria to the point of teleporting to a magicless world in timeline 2. I want it to be intense since the one for timeline 3 was also a bit of a panic teleport moment. It feels right that Aria teleport reflex/instinct usually doesn't go to the extreme extent of going off world unless its she feels like her life is in mortal danger.

For Timeline 2 Aria almost gets kidnapped around 14 years old. The culprits being other Clock Town Delinquents that rival/enemies of Deuce who just started his delinquent phase.

Aria was headed home alone at night when she encountered Deuce's enemies who was goanna hold her hostage or just take her away to beat her up as an send a message to Deuce and his gang to not mess with them and to get off 'their turf'. However, Aria managed to free herself and runs away. unfortunately, a member showed up around the corner in front of her and spooked her. She teleports away on instinct before the guy in front of Aria could grab her.

Deuce has no idea what happened to Aria she just went missing. there are rumors that a rival gang might've taken her, but that's just one of many rumors regarding Aria's disappearance. I haven't decided or come up with other rumors for this so far.

It would just make more sense to me. Instead of leaving it as, yeah somehow despite getting surprised spooked occasionally. Somehow this one time when Aria was already like 14 years old managed to send her to another world and not any of the many previous times.

Though maybe I could say that she did end up in other world before and the difference was this is the first time showing up in one that's magic less. The first time she couldn't just rest up and teleport back to Twisted wonderland on her own or with help from a magical resident of this other world.

For current timeline/timeline three. During their childhood, Aria and Deuce were playing around outside around the white rabbit festival hedges. Yumi approaches them and asked to play with them and even has a ball to play with. Aria and Deuce let her join them as they decided to toss the ball around between the 3 of them, changing who they threw the ball at next every so often. Eventually Yumi fails to catch the ball, and it rolls off. Yumi runs to get the ball with Aria close behind. Yumi runs into the street with a car approaching. Aria panics and manages to grab Yumi and on instinct teleports away to safety. The only problem left is they appear to be unable to return to twisted wonderland and is now separated from everyone else from Twisted wonderland.

Winter Night thoughts.

Yumi contemplates spending Christmas without the family she grew fond of back in the magic less world.

Tis was late at night, a few days before Christmas.

The hearth of Ramshackle longue was alight with a warm glow.

Not small bugs or critters scurried about Ramshackles halls.

Grim was snoring up a storm in the prefect's bed.

Yumi the perfect herself was downstairs nursing a cup of hot coco while sitting on one of the couches in Ramshackle's longue near the furnace.

She sighed heavily.

She looks towards her phone in a grimace.

So many texts and Christmas invitations she had refused littered her text history.

Yumi looks away from her phone and sighs again.

'I wonder how mom and dad are doing, not to mention my siblings back at home'

Home...

What a funny word.

So many tried to help Yumi find a 'home' in twisted wonderland, but none satisfied her.

Yumi misses her home back at the magic less world she grew up more than any of her friends could offer her. Nothing could replace her family and strong feelings of belonging that she possessed back there.

Yumi looked back at her phone and flipped thru her messages and sighed once more.

Whether she liked it or not someone was too stubborn and persistent that she ended up giving in and promising to join them for Christmas.

It was Professor Crewel. Apparently, she was related to him by blood. Yumi was not looking forward to it, perhaps she should've given in to Aria's invitation. At least then she could've avoided her blood related family for Christmas. Worried that they are trying to tie her down into this world, one she is determined to leave for her family and friends back in the magic less world whom she missed so much.

Then again, perhaps it's a good reason to spend Christmas with Professor Crewel's family. For this Christmas may be the only one they will get to enjoy with her if Yumi's plans succeed.

It wasn't like Crewel and his family were unkind or bad people. So, it wouldn't be a terrible Christmas if she spent it with them this year.

Yumi sighed.

'I should stop thinking negatively about this and just enjoy Christmas with them regardless of whether I'm staying or leaving twisted wonderland later'

Yumi got up from the couch and went to put out the furnace fire before placing her empty cup in the sink and heading upstairs.

'I wonder how different Christmas will be for me the rest of the year it's already been a wild ride of a winter break:

Yumi smiled.

It wasn't the most pleasant pass few weeks with the whole ordeal at Scrabia that occurred. However, the party afterwards at Scrabia followed by the one held at Ramshackle was delightful.

It was sweet having her friends that came to her rescue from Scrabia stay by her side for a bit longer even after confirming the danger was already dealt with.

Yumi wasn't expecting to have a party at Ramshackle with so many ppl some who were supposed to be away all winter break.

Ace, Deuce, and Aria.

Aria's mother was also there, and they managed to convince Lilia to stay for a while after he gave Yumi a Christmas letter. Oh, and how could she forget Silver. Lilia invited him to join in the Ramshackle party. Those two apparently decided to stay at Diasomnia during the winter break.

Apparently, the ghosts had decorated the dorm a tad for the holidays while Yumi was at Scrabia. Along with tending to NRCs fire fairies. Ramshackle also got a feast, one that Grim demanded from Crowley before the winter break had started.

It was a wonderful winter break so far and it's not over yet with Professor Crewel coming over tomorrow morning to pick Yumi up. Winter break and celebrating Christmas was yet to end for her. Yumi started to look forward to it once more.

She also hoped and wished all her friends in both worlds along with her family back in the magic less world a very merry and wonderful Christmas.

Yumi made it to her room and patted the head of the snoring Grim among her pillows with a soft smile.

She was not leaving him behind for Christmas. She managed to convince the professor to let Grim tag along for the trip.

Yumi yawns and stretches before heading back to bed.

Yes, this Christmas was gonna be different for her, but it was gonna be a wonderful time and a memory to cherish forevermore regardless of her apprehension prior to tonight.

Current status

This is where I'll list how many wips for this blog I have and how far along they are.

I will leave a shortcut/link to here from my Masterlist.

My WIPS

So let's see where I left off with the stuff in my drafts here.

Almost done with:

Nothing at the moment

In the middle of:

Aftermath of book 1, return home AU

I have some brainstorm idea drafts for return home and children of laughter AU's

Barley started:

Heartslabyul panic part 2 Deuce,

The Nightmare part 3

For both of the above I just have the description of where we left off in the last part. I haven't even set up the scene to start these parts.

I'm debating how will I make the part 2 for Ace and Deuce Heartslabyul panic differences shine for the different povs.

I am also debating which Heartslabyul panic is canon timeline for the nightmare series as well.

I already have a basic idea for both Heartslabyul panic and the rest of the nightmare series.

Not sure when I'll feel up to fleshing out and going into novel detail in my drafts.

Might redo:

The nightmare series

Dreaming once more in a field of flowers (Aria oneshot)

I feel like the writing style could be better for both. The pacing for the oneshot is to rushed I need the oneshot to be a lot longer. I might even separate the oneshot into parts depending how much I wanna space out and build the scene and the events covered in it.

I like what I have written for the nightmare so far but also want to redo it cause I believe I can do better.

So I might just keep what I have but specify it's a old version and that I'm making a newer version that will be canon for my twst Au for Aria and Yumi.

Keep in mind this is just where my drafts progress is currently, they may be left at the their current spot for who knows how long.

My progress depends on when I feel like continuing anything in my draft.

I most likely will add more wips here whenever I fell like starting another work (written or art) on this blog regardless of my progress on the rest of the stuff In drafts on this blog.

Last edited/updated on: May 10th, 2025

I think I changed my mind on posting one of the 3 posts I mentioned I'd post today. So yeah I might be done posting for tonight. Just wanted to keep ya informed.

Also you might've noticed how most of the posts the past few days being centered around my oc Aria.

I've just been in the zone for writing about my OC Aria specifically these past few days, that's why majority of the posts recently are about her.

It's also why I've been posting a lot lately but at the same time it's not much variety. I just was in the zone for writing a specific character.

Hopefully I'll get in the mood/zone to write like crazy for my other twisted wonderland ocs soon.

Twisted wonderland AU Children of Laughter: Waking up

Previous part

Dark, empty, quiet, and vast. This is what welcomes Sian as she wakes up from her slumber. It takes a moment to realize the vast dark space isn't as vast or unlimited as it seems upon first glance.

Sian takes a deep breathe in and out.

'First things first what is the last thing that happened before i fell unconscious?' Sian pondered.

She and Yuzu were on a grocery run and were returning back to the cabin. Yuzu was getting low on many ingredients and wanted to make some desserts for Sian to cheer the Fae girl up during her visit.

However they encountered a carriage while they were crossing the dirt road.

Sian pinches the bridge of her nose and then quickly patted herself down looking and checking herself for injuries.

Her muscles ached in a few places and her head was reeling from a headache. So it appears she got a little sore from a fall. Not surprising that her head hurts since she can't recall what exactly happened when they collided with the horses drawn carriage.

Perhaps a horse kicked her, no that probably wasn't it horse kicks were powerful. A kick to the head would probably be more harmful than the state of her head currently suggests.

Perhaps she was pulled or startled back at the site of the horse approaching fast at her. Then her head collided with the ground fast and hard as she fell losing her footing amongst the chaos.

'Yeah that's probably it' Sian murmur to herself.

Sian closed her eyes again deep breathes as she trys to calm herself down.

Her eyes snapped open wide as her breathing gets rapid and her heart beats wildly.

'YUZU! where is she?! She was with me.'

Sian goes back to trying to calm herself down with breathing exercises.

She needed to figure out where she was fast but needed to calm herself down first. Panicking would make her more rash and prone to mistakes. She can't afford to make mistakes not when Yuzu's health and safety are on the line.

"Not again I won't go through that again I refuse" Sian muttered to herself quietly.

Breathe in, Breathe out

Breathe in, Breath out.

'Get it together one step at a time'

Okay first things first these stuffy clothes. Sian patted herself down remembering her clothes felt slightly different and odd.

She was still wearing the same vest with slightly oversized shirt underneath it. A belt slatted at her waist with another cloth wrapping around her waist like the bottom half of a dress. However unlike a typical ball gown this one was very light, flowy,and most importantly shorter as it ended right above her knees. But most importantly her 'skirt' was handmade and had pockets.

What Sian isn't wearing is her typical long cloak instead she's wearing some stuffy robes on top of her regular clothes for visiting Yuzu.

Sian preferred wearing light, flowy, clothes that were easy to move around in instead of heavy elegant gowns she was forced in sometimes when visiting one of her other friends.

Anyways back to the robes that Sian doesn't remember wearing at all today.

She quickly took the hood down and freed her arms from those long sleaves. She then wrapped those sleaves around her waist on top of the belt she wore and even tucked in the end of the sleeves into her belt.

She yawns and stretches her arms and wings.

Those darn stuffy robes! Her pixie wings felt so suffocate and restricted under them.

Sian closed her eyes and trys to feel the air.

How cold was the air around her?

How big or small was the space she occupied in comparison to herself?

Was there even a breeze? Was she indoor or outdoor?

She focused on how the air felt on her skin, how it swayed alongside the magic she sensed all around her in whatever space she currently occupied. Using her natural connection with wind magic to sense the shape and size of wherever she seems to be at currently.

She takes a deep breathe and opens her eyes. She's in a container of some sort, again. However this one was larger and more of a weird long rectangular shape the top of it was strange but she doesn't focus on it for long. The container Sian was in is upright and standing wherever it is currently located, not lying down on it's back nor lying on its side.

The material of the container felt hard wood or metal perhaps, certainly not made of glass nor fabric.

'Where in the world was she?'

She felt the area around her with wind magic some more, testing the area to see where the lid or exit may be. The front, the lid was on the side right in front of her.

She takes a deep breathe and focused her mind on pushing the air strongly against the lid with her wind magic. The wind made a whoosh noise as the lid came right off and floated a few feet in from of her. It worked. It appears there wasn't anything outside the container to keep the lid on tight however she felt some strong magical resistance to pushing the lid off. There was a magical locking mechanism on the lid though she managed to click in open with her wind magic just fine.

Now for the lid floating in front of her a few feet awat. With her magic Sian gently placed the lid onto the ground as she surveyed her new surroundings.

The room was vast with lots of empty space. However it wasn't empty there was lots of floating coffins around the room. Large window with elegant designs on them littered the walls accompanied by large curtains pushed to the side of the windows.

In the center of the room was a floating elegant mirror on top of a small fountain. However the fountain didn't release water but a green liquid substance Sian could not recognize nor identify.

The room felt a bit intimidating to Sian as she currently was palm/pixie sized, unable to be 'human sized' at the moment.

Sian didn't mind her current size, she much preferred to be small as it's her true size and feels more at ease and in control during these moments.

Sian is curious tho despite her current small size she was placed in a human sized coffin. Maybe that could pertain clues to who her kidnappers were? Or perhaps the coffin being the wrong sized hinted that her kidnapping wasn't planned since they stored her in such a large space for her small form.

Either way she needs to figure out where she is. Who is around here? Are there friends, foes or both around? Is Yuzu also here as well? If Yuzu is in another coffin it would be risky to just go checking them considering there is a good chance there will be others sleeping inside the other coffins. Sian is unable to tell who is occupying any of the other coffins, if at all.

Sian decides against checking coffins for Yuzu at the moment for she deemed it too risky. She decides to instead, venture out this room to gather information on where they are and who placed them in those coffins.

Sian hesitates tho. Fearing for Yuzu's safety. 'Just a quick look around and then I'll head straight back and hide in this room or somewhere just outside this room' Sian reasoned with herself.

And so Sian flys off out of the mirror chamber quietly promising to return back soon as Yuzu is still slumbering away in another coffin.
