Random TWST thought Pt II :: Yuu/MC is Mickey's TWST counterpart
Written on December 19, 2021
Summary: A shower thought regarding the prefect being the mouse's twsted counterpart. It came from a crack discussion with a dear friend and ever since then I felt like I was thrown in the matrix/lh
Think about it, only Yuu has ever been the constant factor across overblots, yes all of them, and understandable why- they are an oddity in the norm of twisted wonderland. Yet they get those dreams of those scenes from the movies that correlate with the OB victims. Mickey has only ever appeared in ramshackle so im concluding that ramshackle is where mickey would thrive- bare with me here.
Mickey is the mascot of disney. and disney was the one who made those movies and scenes yuu dreams of. As the creator or rather the reteller of these old myths and legends- you as the creator would know these stories. Now who else gets tidbits of stories regarding the twsted versions of these disney characters?
yuu in their dreams.
now hold that thought for a moment- going back to the OBs we have to remember that in every single OB they only happened because Yuu and Co. manages to push and open the traumas and pasts of the OB victims, and if we really look at it- everything that happens in their dreams mirror the OBs which is a given- since they are twsted off of these characters. but only Yuu has ever gotten these visions and they seem to be the only one to sense the blot as shown by the dropping sfx. what if the reason they are the only ones who see these dream tidbits is because they as mickey/disney would by default know how the story goes since mickey/disney made these stories they are based off of.
Yes, mickey as well, because remember that mickey without a sorcerer's hat is inherently magicless, without that hat they cant tap into their conjuring magic. who else is magicless without a companion? Yuu.
Mickey has met all the villains in house of mouse according to my friend so yuu having met most of the OB victims and possible victims...do yall get where im getting at.? Mickey in house of mouse is special he is able to interact with almost everyone no matter what franchise.
Yuu is a prefect they are able to go about most of campus with their position. Their position is unique from the dorm leaders and vice- heck they might even be the one and only prefect at school pls correct me if im wrong
The main duty of prefects is to maintain an atmosphere of friendly cooperation, peace, discipline and unity in the School.
Yuu has to keep things orderly no matter the chaos.
Wasn't mickey technically also doing the same thing in house of mouse where he met and interacted with the villains? Not just to the villains alone but in every episode—
Each episode focuses on a story involving Mickey and his associates facing an issue during an evening's operation of the club, and their efforts to overcome it.
*Looks at the episodic format of the twst story line so far*
What if Mickey here in twst "failed" with keeping the unity hence why the seven are suddenly glorified figures when us the MC/yuu have visions of their much more "darker" stories aka the original movies. If we're really mickey/disney then of course we'd know the true course of the great seven's legends.
So what if nrc and twst itself is like a generational repeat —
hence why leona is based off of scar, vil from the evil queen, Riddle from the queen of hearts etc, but since mickey "failed" there's no next gen mouse to try and keep the peace and unity- so what if fate decided on calling someone from another world to be mickey's figure piece on the chess board- it wouldn't technically go against the rules since Mickey himself isn't trapped in a single franchise, as the mascot of the one who made said franchises.
But this is just a far off guess since even mickey in game looks confused.
The only reason I feel like he's in the same state as those visions of the great seven in their true series is because of the art styles. The dreams and mickey himself when shown in gane are in that disaturated simple 2d line work and minimal shading we're all familiar with in the OG movies. What if Mickey was also stuck in a dream limbo of some sorts.?
In the house of mouse series it's mickey who hosts the whole thing, in a way he's organizing the whole thing, he's the one who is able to server everyone in the dinner club and cater to them as needed.
This is the part where we mirror mickey, in Twisted Wonderland, it's us/yuu/MC the prefect that gets summoned/invited to the twsted characters, opposite to Mickey's situation where the characters go to him in the dinner club.
Mirroring the mouse might be a far stretch but hey we talk to him via mirror anyways uwhdidhdkdj
Headmaster Speculation [Unfinished/Half-baked]
To be specific, this was an old thought ramble after a discord friend pointed something out regarding my Crowley rants from before. Again this is all pure speculation with a dash of imagination nothing more nothing less. I'm open for discussion about this (agreeing or disagreeing I'm fine with such) just please be respectful about it thank you ^ ^.
Reference posts used: [Crowley Rant] [Yuu is Twsted Mickey Mouse]
⚠️ Mentions of rebirth and (pixelated) picture of The Seven Deadly Sins and the Four Last Things
Headmaster Crowley through the lens of a Painting:

I remember posting about how Yuu can possibly be twst mickey. After that an anonymous ask was sent saying how they also theorized Crowley being a prefect at one point (yet he didn't get the job done as intended so now he's pushing yuu to do it.)
Then it occurred to me how Crowley had both keys and mirrors on his person, and how there were seven keys and four mirrors, I pointed the numerical count on the answer for the ask then another art friend of mine suggested that, what if it was a reference (or a similarly patterned narrative) to the painting of "The Seven Deadly Sins and the Four Last Things"
(Seven keys Seven sins four mirrors four last things)
At first I didn't really consider it since the number seven is a prominently symbolic number in literature "seven sins seven virtues seven days of a week seven colors in a rainbow etc." And the four might’ve just been an artistic design but then, I started reading into the paintings' wiki.
The paintings' composition made sense four corners four things death hell heaven and judgement. It light bulbed how often mirros tend to ride on the "rebirth renewal and truth" theme so I started considering the 4 aspect being important.
Then, I read more and you all remember how Crowley is the headmaster and the overseer of the school?
And how in the beginning of the game there was a line about "For me, For them, For you. We are all running out of time. No matter what, never let go of my hand." Etc.
In the middle of the painting, inscribed in Latin it says:
"For they are a nation void of counsel, neither is there any understanding in them", above, and "O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!"

If the anon's take from that past post of mine was correct and Crowley was indeed supposed to have been the first "prefect" figure in rounding up the shackled seven of twst in this generation but failed then... what if that's why he keeps pushing Yuu to do the dirty work with the blot victims
Because they're "running out of time" since their "latter end" is near.
If my Yuu Mickey ramble was also correct, maybe the nation void of counsel is twisted wonderland itself with correlation to the Great Seven and their deeds/influence, "Neither is their understanding in them" may pertain to how the great seven are glorified when they're in reality villains of their myths. "O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!" Again, going back to the theory, what if they're aware of the generational repeat? What if they're aware that one day there will be another Mickey/Hero destined to overthrow the positive stasis of the current seven (now in the form of the Overblot Victims) and they're slowly succeeding but- something will inevitably happen along the way.
Regarding the mirrors and the whole death hell heaven judgement aspect, what if Crowley took yuu's hand through the mirror in the sense that they'll be the new mantle to bring fourth long due judegement over the twsted seven. In reference to my yuu is mickey theory where I asusme yuu has a duty of making things right where mickey originally went wrong.

wait okay so here me out.
its season 5.
will puts himself in danger for mike (gets injured?) & is knocked out for a little while- a few days, etc. nothing fatal, but.
ofc mike is worried. mike is waiting for will to wake up (im)patiently, he is on edge, he goes quiet and wont eat or speak with people, he won't leave him alone. (or maybe we just get a quiet, not-eaty mike but that is now even more determined to spite the upside down and goes to kill it or whatever. but i think that based off of our season 2 material the first option sounds a little more plausible. but anyways.) we get at least one by-the-bedside byler scene, (and the potential for lumax parallels ohmygod)!
(please see below:).

but anyways.
mike ends up feeling like he needs to talk to someone about it/everything else happening.
mike and nancy have a heart-to-heart / sibling talk, as is seen in the teaser clip:

(although personally i am a something-happened-to-holly believer too, so this could definitely be that too or a combination, yk.)
anyways. as they talk maybe nancy brings up steve and jon/her current emotional confusion, or just launches into something like a quiet nudge and still-with-plausible-deniability 'its obvious you must love him a lot' (very discreet i know.. probably not quite that, but you get it), or something else supportive and understanding, but however it happens, she ends up telling/relaying to a distressed mike softly about what was once said to her about her and johnathon:

"only love makes you that crazy sweetheart. and that damn stupid." but referencing WILL and MIKE.
i think i would die.
wheeler siblings rep & gay pining & lumax parallels & a few more answers for mike & a callback??? PLEASE.
it doesn't even have to be like a jancy confirmation or anything, even though it technically could be, but nancy could still make the reference i know it. it would FIT.
