A new character!

Introducing Queenie Rook’s elder sister who currently lives in the town the event takes place and who is running the festival and who personally asked/invited Rook and friends to help

Some scene background concept sketches

I don’t draw background often so I thought this be good practice

Main Stage Day and Night

MC and Idia: *wheezing*

Malleus and Leona: *their characters in the tabletop RPG ended up getting married*

Leona: What the actual fuck-

Idia: I warned you but you still went ahead.

Malleus: ...

Malleus: *to Leona* My dearly beloved-

Leona: Don't fucking start!

MC: Continue to be hostile with him and he'll fall in love with you more.

Leona: ...

Leona: I hate this game.

Idia: Lol.

Idia: You see a lone baby dragon in the woods—

MC: Can I adopt it?

Idia: Let me finish. You have two options:

Idia: You can sell it and get rich or-

MC: I'll go with the latter.

Idia: ...

Idia: Great. You successfully adopted a dragon that will burn your whole village when it grows up.

MC: Are the villagers assholes?

Leona: Motherfucker- You're going to justify everything for its sake, huh?

MC: It's MY CHILD. I will do everything for my child.

Malleus: ...

Malleus: Shroud, when can I divorce Kingscholar?

Idia: Uh...

Leona: You're not leaving me with ten children, you dipshit.

Malleus: I will be taking them with me.

Idia: Er, don't fight. Please.

walks into the function wearing a tshirt that says ASK ME ABOUT MY TOXIC THIRD YEARS POLYCULE HEADCANONS

this map has been stewing in my mind for years i think and i finally wrote it down in the illegible spaghetti way that i always do let's GO

lilia is not in the polycule he's just playing his own game of collecting sons. everyone is his son. he's also going to watch the drama because who doesn't love a soap opera playing out in real life he's got front row seats to the divorce vortex.

cater/trey/rook/vil are the ultimate four way polycule but also oh god theres so much going on there.

cater and trey are a ride or die duo but also trey knows cater sometimes isnt completely open with him but trey has a very passive nature to him as we've seen in book 1 and when he mentions cater's wish to himself in the starsending event... but theyre still close and care for each other a lot and i will die defending them if i have to fjdklsjfds

rook and vil oh my god rook and vil. they are so married. and so dramatic. and so. sdkfjsdkljf a little divorced because rook is also in love with the biggest rival of vils life but that is NOT enough to break their marriage. love finds a way. somehow. fdskjfjksdlg

^ i could go much more into both those duos but we simply. we dont have time we are moving along we are walking

rook and trey beloved science weirdos oh my god every time theyre on screen together theyre so funny. i love odd friendships. science marriage real.

cater canonically flirted with vil even tho it got somewhat censored in engtwst and was partially probably for clout reasons HOWEVER, to ME it's also for bisexual reasons. vil is canonically very pretty and caters like yeah 🧡🧡🧡 vil can see through when cater's being more superficial BUT ALSO they have genuine moments of getting along!!! like in events, beanfest 2 and the puppet one that's not out in eng yet. no spoilers here but there is a bit in puppet event that has me so vindicated on how they really do work well together and respect each other!!!!!!! into the polycule you go.

vil and trey,,, gestures to vil's lab coat story klsdjflksd they get along and it's cute. everybody loves trey.

even leona wants trey in the divorce polycule. no spoilers but please see playful land puppet event / leona's card vignette for that event. and also i think treys platinum birthday card story sljdflksdjf

the extreme difference between how malleus reacts to cater bothering him vs rook bothering him or even just Talking To Lilia is so funny. like he gets along with rook sometimes but in those two pe scenes hes SO aggro he wants that twink OBLITERATED he is going to KILL ROOK HUNT. but he will play tag with cater :^)

leona is the king of divorce. he is divorced to everyone he touches . he invented divorce. he's turbo divorced with vil and malleus because he and vil are just sooooooo. fsdkjfskdlg when therye on screen together it's like passive aggressive but mostly just aggressive bitching and bullying. theyre so funny. they have this energy of like "we have Tension but also i am going to kill you. i begrudgingly respect your abilities but i will only say so with layered insults." like the way vil says "so leona's got a pretty face but that's ALL he has going for him" like. multiple times. why does he keep doing that.

and then whatever he has going on with malleus is so funny. like malleus seems like hes a smug little bitch having fun with the banter [again he wants to Destroy Rook in those PE stories, but leona's blatant insults i feel like he's more teehee you stupid bitch >:)] and leona's just so pissed mad angry forever he's like no i need this dragon fucker DEAD for EXISTING !!! but i think malleus' having fun with the fellow teen experience of stupid razzing

leona and cater are giving me subtle divorced vibes in that one scene in book 2. listen. i have headcanons. ive talked about it. moving on 🚶

rook. leona. i feel i do not need to elaborate jfklsjfkljsekljfkl

idia is so funny. why are his opinions about everyone around him either "oh god hes ultra tier scary" or "he's so sparkly dazzling handsome beautiful". he does this often with no filter and it's so funny. i like that he and leona played chess for like hours or whatever in that one birthday vignette but i forget which one lol i think it was idia's union bday or something

do i have more to say. ive been thinking about them for hours and also years. i can and will talk about them forever i think they are So funny. this is just a messy summary of it all i'm barely scratching the surface i simply cannot go into full detail or this post will Never End GOODBYE!!!!

Vil: I possess a charm that no one else can covet-

MC: I CAST! IMPOSTER SYNDROME!

Idia: *kicks MC's leg under the table*

MC: Ow! What?!

Vil: *already glaring at them*

MC: ...

Leona: Is Vil immune to that?

Idia: ...

Idia: Unfortunately, no.

Malleus: *laughs*

Vil: ...

Vil: Idia, what are my options now that I have an imposter syndrome?

Idia: Um, let's see. You can have MC as a friend and guilt-trip them for the rest of their days,

Idia: Or steal their dragon.

MC: WHAT?!

Leona and Malleus: *starts singing* Consequence, consequence, here comes the consequence.

MC: ...

Vil: ...

Vil: *to Leona and Malleus* You're getting along well.

Leona: Our divorce is on the way.

Vil: What happened to your 20 babies?

Malleus: Due to a curse, I ate them.

Idia: Yeah... He cried for the whole session, but we reminded him that none of this was real.
