Listen I'm not saying I believe the "Crowley is Raverne/Levan" theory, I'm saying that if it is true, Lilia is going to be PISSED.

My wife and I have a little game we play called "Speaking From Ignorance."
To play Speaking From Ignorance, all you need is a phone with a voice recorder, and another person who knows considerably more or considerably less about a topic than you do. The topic can be anything: from "how to bake a quiche" to "what happens in the Peter Jackson Hobbit movies" to "who is Florence Pugh" to "how does the traveling salesman problem work." All that matters is that one of you has a firm grasp on the material, and one of you absolutely the fuck does not.
Then the person who knows about the topic turns on the recorder, and says to the person who knows barely anything: "Hey - tell me everything you think you know about [X]."
The speaker is then not allowed to ask any questions. Nor is the expert allowed to volunteer any information. The expert is allowed to pipe up with a faintly incredulous "Oh--really? Do you--do you think so?" from time to time, but for the most part, the expert's job is just to sit there and make encouraging sounds while the speaker digs their own grave.
This is never not funny.
The reason you record it is because, very often, the first thing the speaker wants to do after finishing the recording is find out how you actually make a quiche, or whatever. Then you both get to go back and listen to how wrong they were.
We have a small library now of Speaking From Ignorance recordings, and I'm going to be listening to them until I'm eighty.
“average person eats 3 spiders a year” factoid actualy just statistical error. average person eats 0 spiders per year. Spiders Georg, who lives in cave & eats over 10,000 each day, is an outlier adn should not have been counted
They drilled for this
when thinking about twst my mind always eventually bounces back to thinking about the little first year gang, because they're such a disaster group.
like arguably, none of them on their own are grade a troublemakers (except Grim). If we're going by chaos energy on their own, characters such as floyd, kalim, jade, lilia, ect. probably wreak more havoc. hell most of the dorm leaders, as intelligent as they are, are so arrogant that they cant seem to stop pissing others off.
but the first years have the terrible curse that their brain seems to fall out of their asses the moment another first year is nearby.
ace is the best example, we know from chapter 7 that he has a good head on his shoulders, but the moment an opportunity to mess with deuce/prefect/grim arises he throws all caution out the window. despite the voice inside his head screaming danger he can't ignore the siren's call of starting shit.
deuce, on the other hand, is a character that literally can't seem to avoid bullshit. He's trying so hard to be better and YET he keeps getting wrapped up in these looney toons ass situations. he's the unluckiest first year, and is also easy to anger and even easier to fool.
Epel is a good enough student when he's surrounded by the rest of pomefiore (who are arguably more insane than him) but he also can't ignore the allure of chaos. imo he's the enabler, with a personal philosophy of "you can solve every problem if you hit it hard enough"
jack tries really REALLY hard to not get involved, but he's also too emotionally constipated for his own good sometimes. remember that scene in stitch's event where he tries to help riddle and azul with carrying heavy items, then to cover up for his display of kindness he tries to be all like "psh yea you guys don't look that strong" and riddle prompty obliterates him for saying that. yea that. keeps shooting himself in the foot
ortho seems like he'd have a good head on his shoulders, but he has the same amount of social tact as idia. i mean he's really nice right up until the situation gets dire, and then he starts calling his friends idiots. he's absolutely correct btw, but ortho don't say that out loud
and finally sebek, who tries really hard to not be associated with the rest of these hooligans, but is argueably the worst person here. yells at everyone, insults everyone, sebek is the friend you cannot take out to eat because he doesn't know what an inside voice is and doesnt understand why he has to wait so long for his food despite the fact you're with a group of 7 during the busiest time of the evening.
Grim is like. the final piece to this puzzel. all the first years need a bit of chaos to get truly started, and grim cannot stop causing problems
"If my soul belongs nowhere, then I can be everywhere! That's what they call being a 'jack of all trades,' right?"
T, a mischief-maker who appeared in Twisted Wonderland around the same time as Yuu. Despite appearing under the same circumstances, the Dark Mirror never even acknowledged him. He's known for two things: Wearing sunglasses at all times, regardless of time of day, weather, or location, and calling everyone by nicknames.

Signature Spell: "Road to Somewhere"
This isn't a real signature spell; rather, it's just an inside joke. T has an uncanny ability to appear any place he pleases, and disappear the moment people's eyes are averted. While most people just assume he is naturally sneaky, Ace was the first one to joke that this could secretly be his signature spell. T himself was the one to nickname it.
Aaaaand that's T, my sort-of-Yuu who is technically my own OC outside of TWST, but he decided he wanted in on the action and now we're.... here. I'll probably drop a relationship chart for him soon
lifehack: when you see a Take One candy bowl in a restaurant, wait until noones looking and shovel candy into your pockets. god may judge you but his sins outnumber your own
Yearning for someone who doesn't exist
— OC Presentation
Johannes Harsenherz, better known as "Lady J", is a handsome drag queen who loves stealing the spotlight with his dazzling brilliance. Many might call him arrogant —and perhaps he is — but his piercing green eyes easily divert the conversation or land a sharp retort. It’s surprising how someone so haughty manages to maintain a loyal following at a small bar...
Fun Facts:
As mentioned earlier, Johannes performs in small drag shows, though he used to work as a substitute teacher at NRC. He left his teaching career to pursue his beloved dream.
Despite quitting teaching, he still keeps in touch with some people from NRC, especially Divus and Mozus.
His drag name is a silly joke referencing Jessica Rabbit (the character he’s based on).
His unique magic also pays homage to the movie Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and perhaps there’s more to that story...
