Having the vision about the queen of hearts
Yuu: *waking up all of a sudden* I think I should put down that herbal tea…..
Ace: *after almost knocking the door down* I need you to let me stay here.
Yuu: *with squinted eyes* If you wake me up again at this hour you'll stay out, I'm in an age and if I don't sleep I don't yield.
Ace: Ah! whatever, from today on I'm part of this dorm!
Yuu: I don't feel ready and I'm not old enough to have a teenager in my charge. ….
Ace: *wearing Riddle's collar*
Yuu: What weird discipline methods are used in the magical world.
Ace: This was done to me by my housewarden!!!!
Yuu: …
Yuu: What weird bullying methods you guys use in the magic world.
Ace: NO IT IS NOT!!!
Deuce and Ace discussing about Riddle
Yuu: *to Grim* I think this Riddle guy is going to be a problem child.
Grim: Technically he's our superior.
Yuu: ...
Yuu: There goes what little authority I had left….
Entering Heartslabyul dorm.
Grim: This place is incredible!
Ace: *smiling* This is much better than that dump you call a dorm.
Deuce: What do you think Yuu?
Yuu: My gosh to clean all this… so much ornamentation, what a lot of dust that has to accumulate…
Ace and Deuce: …
Yuu: And so many rosebushes, damn, how much water has to be spent on watering.
Deuce: Looks like we're all going to the same class.
Grim: I'm going to outdo all of you.
Yuu: I'm practically your legal guardian already, no one can convince me otherwise at this point.
Crewel: …
Yuu: …
Crewel: You-
Yuu: Don't say another word, I've got enough on my plate.
Crewel: Let's get together once in a while after class, it'll be good for you.
Yuu: Thank you, I could really use someone who isn't a mess of hormones.
Crewel: *putting a hand on their shoulder* My condolences.
In the cafeteria.
Yuu: The food is good!
Ace: Of course this a prestigious school!
Yuu: And it's free!
Deuce: A-are you ok?
Yuu: *almost crying* I won't have to break my head thinking about what to eat every day.
Yuu: So the students are separated into dorms according to their abilities?
Cater: That is.
Yuu: My 10 year old self is shaking.
Cater: ?
Yuu: I'm in a magical school separated by houses, suck on that reality!!!
Riddle: Rules must always be obeyed!
Yuu: *sarcastic* Yes, of course, because people in positions of power always follow the rules.
Riddle: The world works because of the rules!
Yuu: Oh my boy, what a beating you're going to get when you leave school *sighing*
In the botanical garden
Grim: Are you the gardener?
Yuu: Grim!! this kind of work is very hard, *to Leona* you must be very tired, I apologize.
Leona: Tsk, I'm a student.
Yuu: *confused* And shouldn't you be in class?
Leona: And shouldn't you be out of school and working?
Yuu: Ouch.
Trey: You're pretty good at cooking.
Yuu: Ha, ha, ha, I've been living on my own for a long time, although this sweets thing is new.
Trey: Why?
Yuu: I didn't have the time or money for that many ingredients.
Deuce: *believing that chicks can born from any egg*
Yuu: My maternal instinct is getting triggered again?
Yuu: *seeing Cater's ability* I could really use that ability, fuck magic with fire and lights, I want to do several things at the same time.
Riddle rejecting the cake
Ace: All our work!
Yuu: Ha ha, how nostalgic…. this reminds me of my first job, the exploitation….
Deuce: What ??
Yuu: *with an empty stare* Yeah, you know, all your hard work and dedication thrown away, like this cake.
Ace: *to Deuce* Are we going to become like this when we grow up ???
Deuce: React yuu!!!
Yuu: *come to their senses* How can you throw food away? I can tell you've never been hungry!
Ace: Aaaand back to "responsible" adult mode.
Trey after explaining Riddle's past
Yuu: So mommy issues? Ha, ha, welcome to the club.
Yuu: Do you think it's okay to have students fighting with magic in this way?
Crowley: It's a healthy duel.
Yuu: How can you still be the director of a place full of minors?
Yuu: Today's teenagers are scary!
Crowlwy: Not all our students are like that!!!
Yuu: Are you implying that you're scared of Riddle too?
Crowley: ...
Crowley: Today's teenagers are scary.
Yuu: Please, somebody stop him, the kid is going to get a stroke, he won't make it to 20 if he keeps going like this.
Deuce: Do something Yuu!!!
Yuu: And what do you want me to do? I haven't inherited my mother's chancla ability yet.
Riddle overblot
Yuu: This change can only mean one thing… I don't know if I'm ready for this... but as an adult I have to take care of it…
Grim: ??
Yuu: * to Riddle* I know you're going through a difficult time, it's normal, but it's also natural. We all go through these changes in our body
Ace and Deuce: That's not !!!!
Yuu: Isn't that puberty in the magical world?!?!!!!
Trey and Cater: NOOO!!!!
Yuu: *after seeing Riddle's flashback* Someone please bring the little boy a strawberry cake.
Riddle: *apologizing and saying everything he wanted to do*
Yuu: That's it, get me on that mother, let's have an adult to adult talk.
Crowley: Yuu no.
Yuu: I'll show her what respectful parenting is NOT.
Riddle: I want to apologize for what happened.
Yuu: Oh, don't worry, it's okay, although I still don't get that magic thing.
Riddle: It was childish behavior.
Yuu: …
Riddle: I wish I could be as mature as you.
Yuu: Hey, don't be in a hurry to grow up. That adulthood thing is a scam, you never feel mature enough.
Riddle: But-
Yuu: What matters is not to be more grown up in certain situations, it's to learn from them and take a note for the next one. And even if I seem more mature as you say, I'm just as lost as you are in some things, don't let anyone fool you, adults don't have everything under control.
Riddle: Thank you…
Yuu: And let me give you some advice, the family tree can also be pruned.

*Grim casually sauntering to bed*
Malleus from the outside of the window: Ah, hello Grim
Grim: WHA-
Malleus: May I inquire as to the whereabouts of the Ramshackle prefect? They seem to be late for our walk.
Grim:.....
Grim: NUNYA BUISNESS
*Slams the curtains closed*
Malleus:....
Malleus: Does that mean they aren't here?
*Grim walking back from Sam's shop after getting his daily supply of tuna cans*
Idia: *jumps out of a random bush* FLOOF!
Grim: MYAAAGGHHH!
Idia: I gotcha now floof! *Casually petting the captured Grim*
Grim: MINION, HELP MEEEEEE!
MC: *already in bed*
You ever think that Yuu gets jealous of the main cast during the events? Especially once they meet their ‘friends’ parents. Yuu having no known way home, but constantly seeing their friends parents must irk something in them.
Just imagine when Yuu meets Epel’s grandma Marja and she starts to remind them of their own grandma. So they start talking to her just lingering a little more than everyone else around Epel’s meemaw. But once Yuu is finally away from her fetching something from the kitchen they see Epel happily laughing with his Meemaw. Yuu’s usually monotone face twitches into a frown. Though they soon push it aside that’s his grandma not yours.
Then Yuu meets Deuce’s mom Dylla. She’s even been checking up on you including the others, but somethig just feels different with the way she makes sure you’re ok. It soon starts to make Yuu miss their mom. It’s oddly painful when you have to tell Dylla goodbye. They just met her and already they don’t want to part ways with her. Yuu’s mind soon takes a slightly dark turn seeing the Shroud family interact. Growing bitter seeing how close they all are even with all the hardships they have faced. They quietly scoffed in the distance as they heard Idia’s mother tell him she loves him or his father say he’s proud of him. Yuu doesn’t know why they feel so hurt and bitter about this. Idia and Ortho’s parents are just being good parents through this very troubling time with Malleus’s Overblot… Yuu is probably just still freaked out that’s why they’re so negative… Right?
Soon they meet more and more of their ‘friends’ parents, siblings, grandparents, and so on. It just starts to feel like the universe is being cruel to them at this point. It gets even worse as Yuu forgets their loved ones faces, voices, and even a few memories with them…
Once again after every event Yuu is walking back to the dormitory with Grim curled up on their shoulders. As always the little monster clung to them. Opening the door to the newly renovated dorm they sighed seeing the three mischievous ghosts welcome them back.
“ I’m soooo happy to be home!” Grim stated.
Home? Yuu froze looking around taking in their still poor living conditions. Was this their home from now on? Do they truly have no to their actual home?… Was this all they could even call home at all? A haunted dorm in a magical school filled with mentally unstable and overpowered teens. Was this sick joke really all they have to show their in this universe?
The colorful first years.
They’re everything to me<3
