@akumanoken​:
.....I'm so in love.....with that au idea
@kapisola​:
I'm gonna need more on that fairytale AU, stat. It's for my health, Suzu, do you want me to be healthy? 
Pfft. Well, I do want you to be healthy.
Marchen (Fairy Tale AU)
I imagine this AU takes place in a fantasy continent of Istoriya, made of smaller kingdoms. I only have 3 kingdoms so far. The underwater mermaid kingdom of Meer. The fairy realm of Obrynes. And Albtraum, kingdom of the beast shifters.
Ruled by the Von Friedhof family, the ageless though not immortal residents of Albtraum possessed the ability to transform into animal forms (and half shifted forms as well), noble families possessing some level of magic. With Mikhail able to turn into a panther. Dmitri a stag. And Lazuli a wood thrush. They were a strong, but peaceful race. Generally kept to themselves and stuff. Though there were tensions with Obrynes due to past conflicts and prejudices.
Until Mikhail had caught the attention of a fairy of the high court, wanting him as part of his collection. But neither Mikhail nor his family would allow that to happen. And to add insult to injury, the family did not invite him to the Christening of the newborn Noah. Insulted, the fae planned the kingdom’s downfall.
First, by ordering a band of fairies to kidnap Noah. They were found not even a few days later, with even the king and queen themselves searching. However, due to being a newborn, and with the kidnappers not making any of the necessary accommodations, Noah died of exposure.
The two slaughtered the band right then and there.
Obrynes saw this as a savage attack on their kingdom. As an example of the feral and monstrous natures of the Albtraum. They sent their condolences for the loss of the prince, but argued that there were more civil ways to handle it. Their arguments proved hypocritical though, as even with Dominic and Melua offering their own heads as atonement, the fae still moved to destroy their kingdom.
Curses were placed on the royal children. By the very man who started it all. For Dmitri who had argued that Mikhail’s place was in his home, a curse of flames that would burn him if he’d ever come home. For Lazuli who’d said they would die for their loved ones, a curse to always die at the hands of those very loved ones. And for Mikhail, as proud and arrogant as he was, to be reduced to a mindless beast with each full moon. To become a monster, even to his own people.
To make matters worse, word of the events passed around, stirring up fear in surrounding nations. And believing the Albtraum to be a power to be feared, they launched a war. A short lived affair that saw the annihilation of the kingdom of beasts. Survivors were sold into slavery. The land was split among the victors. But what was left of the royal family and nobles disappeared along with the castle.
For years afterwards, Mikhail tried his best to control himself. Helped by the magic and songs of his sister. However, one night the curse got the better of him, and he murdered her. And with her last breath, Lazuli cursed him. No matter how much he wanted to die, from loneliness or guilt, she would never allow him to die until he can make every flower in the gardens bloom.
This was centuries ago. With the current stories following the Von Friedhof family and their current situations.
Mikhail (The Beast / Big Bad Wolf)
Mikhail travels Istoriya within Einsam, the Albtraum castle that walks upon magically fueled mechanical legs, along with the survivors of noble families. Constantly moving in an attempt to prevent Dmitri from coming home and secretly wishing his brother settles down somewhere and is living happily.
With Einsam coated in a cloaking magic and protected via the thorns that grow around it, Mikhail is merely trying his best to live in obscurity. He hears that him and his castle are a myth to the current residents of Istoriya and he is fine with that. Occasionally, the residents of the castle try to sneak out and hunt humans or other creatures, but he rules over them with an iron fist. Not tolerating any needless murder so long as they want refuge here. Mikhail himself locks himself in his room during full moons.
Along his travels, he is trying to find a way to remove his family’s curses, or a way to revive Lazuli, whose corpse he keeps in the castle encased in a sealing magic. He is also trying to find a way to break her curse so he can die, driven by guilt and grief. But no matter what he tries, all the plants he brings into the garden dies almost immediately.
For a possible story, I imagine he once interacted with a child who nearly wandered into the Einsam when bringing food to their grandmother, wanting to pick some flowers. Mikhail, though hiding his identity, he scares the child off. Though does leave some flowers on their doorstep. Then years later, for whatever reason, the child, now grown, manages to get into the castle. Mikhail now has to hide and protect them, trying to pass them off as a beastman to trick the others.
Dmitri (Icarus/???)
Dmitri has been wandering all these years. Wanting to get home, even if it hurts him. Knowing that the castle moves, but not knowing where Mikhail is taking it, Dmitri has just been wandering aimlessly, hoping he’ll just accidentally stumble upon the castle one day. Meeting many different people and experiencing different things.
I don’t have too much of a story for him yet. But I do want him to pick up other travelers along the way. Maybe a first time adventurer or a veteran who he helped at one point. Someone who he met as a child but is now grown?
Maybe he gets captured and sold into slavery at one point? I’ll be able to figure out more when I get his fairy tale allusion down.
Lazuli (The Little Mermaid / Sleeping Beauty / Bluebeard’s Wife / Etc)
Lazuli has lived many lives in this time. Even being one of Bluebeard’s wives at one point. It never ends well though. With each life, her curse activates on her 15th birthday, which essentially turns people mad. The more people love her, romantic or platonic, the more they have an urge to harm or kill her. With each life she has died young at the hands of people who care about her. And while she never remembers her past lives, she does have dreams about them.
In this life, she was born a mermaid of Meer who befriends a witch (maybe a childhood friend?). Eventually, she falls for a human and begs the witch to help her gain legs. Not sure if they love her, but the witch would care about her. Enough so that they say they’ll do it for her voice, knowing how much she loves singing. So when she agrees, it’d be surprising. But nonetheless they do it.
Then the story continues the same for a while. Prince and her have a thing going on until he decides to marry someone else. Witch tells her she can live if she stabs the prince in the heart, but she says no.
Then there are 2 possible endings. Either they do nothing and she turns to sea foam, starting the cycle all over again. Or the witch goes to stab the prince in the heart. Lazuli wakes up to see herself still alive but she can’t find the witch. Maybe the witch finds out about the curse and is therefore avoiding her? Who knows. Either way she goes traveling to find her friend. Traveling as a singer because in her words, the witch loves her voice so there is no way they can resist coming to hear more.
With all three living their own stories, I do want them all to meet somehow, though not sure how. And then stuff happens. Maybe they try to find a way to remove the curse together. Maybe  Lazuli dies again, but this time they put her soul back in her original body? Shenanigans? Who knows?
Trivia about Marchen Verse:
Dmitri, Mikhail, Lazuli and Noah are all full siblings. With Dominic and Melua being all their parents.
Bird Lazuli has the same magic as her Imperial verse version, but mermaid Lazuli has no magic other than switching from mermaid to human forms at will.
Stag Dmitri gives best rides.
Cursed Mikhail’s beast form is not a straight up panther, but an oversized cat-like beast with wings, horns, tusks, a dual-snake tail, 2 *****, 4 eyes, hooves for the hind legs, clawed forelegs and breathes fire!

I am very sure Nomura haven’t planned this back to CoM days , he just get the idea because maybe he is just that well-versed in symbolism but here is my analysis anyway. 
I try to split “Marluxia” into three components, and here we go. At last, two parts of it does havemeanings. : 
Mar: Ancient German for news or tale, base of the modern German word “marchen”,which translates to “fairy tale” However, “mar” in English means  to taint, contaminate, to make something pure impure, anything similar to that. 
Lux: International standard unit for light intensity. This is also the unit for light particles in UX universe.Not to mention literally it is Latin for light. 
the Ia particles seems to highlight the Latin theme of Chi, as many Latin word have”Ia” endings. 
With all the analysis above, “Marluxia” could translate into: “The  fairy tale about  how  the light becomes tainted”, possibly foreshadowing his role as the one who tells the tale of  chi era in KH3. The lack of “mar” component in his original name may also lampshaded the fact that for him, the age of the fairy tales is no fairy tale, it is reality, his personal experience. 
before you correct me of the lack of the two dots on the first A in Marluxia, Nami from Namine was supposed to translate into Japanese but the dots are there anyway.
