For who would go crazy in TWST trying to save u over and over i have thoughts:
Vil - Mr. Perfect? Not being able to reach his goal, trying to get to the person who understands him best? ESP. thinking about how he's based on the Evil Queen, someone well known for having a Very Poor reaction to not getting her way? He'd absolutely lose it, have a "where are they now" episode about washed up celebs cause EVERYTHING he has is dedicated to saving you
Malleus - He wields some of the most powerful magic in the world, but he can't save you? Absolutely not. He refuses. Also in his case he's probably resetting the world himself, so the repeated deaths he can't save you from are arguably being caused by him to. He has no sense to pet go - you love him, know him so intimately that a world without you is meaningless. Reset.
Azul - There's no bargain he can make, power he can steal, trick he can pull strong enough to fix this mess. He's blindly ambitious, and refuses to hear the word "no". How could he give up his precious pearl, the one person he knows could see through everything he is that's nasty and gross, and love the whole of it? He knows, deep in his mind, that he can't change this fate. But to give up on you? Truly impossible.
Tumblr media
notes: referring to this shitpost here, discussion of spoilers for all currently available books including book 7, I'll slap Malleus's part under read more to make those a bit more avoidable
No but annon your mind... so correct about all of this for all stated reasons and more. Seriously how did I not think about Vil? That's genius?
Assuming the original timeline follows the events currently evolving in game, I assume that Yuu ends up dying as part of Grim's overblot. I think it makes sense for the boys to die that first time too, only to wake up alive and in the middle of preparing for NRC's entrance ceremony. After they make sure that this isn't a dream, and that they really are alive and somehow back in time they start making plans.
Vil
I can see og timeline Vil regretting that he didn't pay attention to Yuu before VDC, and trying to figure out how to stay in their life during his fourth year internship because (even if his feelings technically run a bit deeper) genuine friendships are important to him. Remember how happy to see everyone he was in chapter 6? It's all he can do to remind himself you probably don't know who he is anymore when he sees Crowley drag you into the mirror chamber, he just wants to kiss your preciously confused face.
Something Rook immediately picks up on because I'm pretty convinced he would notice if something was that majorly off script about his queen. Vil's raised eyebrow is .3 centimeters off from his normal concerned face :/ he needs an explanation.
Vil's relieved at first, he has Rook's help and you are surprisingly receptive to his advances. For just a brief moment he has you in his arms and you are alive, and then you are torn away again. And again, and again and again and-
Vil's signature spell is a curse, he can recognize the traces of one, and I agree he would be so determined to break it he would slowly start to deteriorate into a actual villain. It's not like time is advancing forward otherwise, it's not like he can advance his acting career while he is stuck in this time loop trying to save you, trying to not let your zero percent of survival stay zero. I could see him spending a loop killing the other overblot mages before they build up enough blot to hurt Yuu only for that not to work and him to get even more unhinged as a result.
Azul
Ok so you remember that bit in the Ghost Bride event where Azul gets borderline creepy over the thought of being rejected? Or that part of New Years where he suffers a bit of sunk cost fallacy over the grab bags and gets back in line to spend more money on more stuff he doesn't need? Or how about his level up lines? Laughing at the thought of being satisfied with "just this much power" or warning that you will just be taken advantage of in this world, and inviting you to seek safety with him when that inevitably happens?
Well you did and he failed you. And no he isn't really someone who lets go of things. He goes out of his way to tell Riddle that he thinks being greedy is a good thing; you could have had a very long and happy life together that hit every milestone you set out to achieve and it still wouldn't be enough for Azul. He will never be satisfied, never have enough of Yuu.
But he's smart, he knows when things just aren't possible. It makes him more determined to prove himself. If he can't outsmart something as trivial as fate, can he really claim to be a brilliant mage?
Unlike Vil, I don't think he would immediately tell the twins what was happening. I do think they would figure it out eventually, and I do think they would help, but I think they would also maybe... eventually... realize that there was no saving you and maybe it's best for everyone involved if that's accepted. I could see Jade and Floyd going to Yuu directly and asking what you want, not because they are opposed to saving you but because they want Azul's suffering to end.
I don't know if you have ever played Amnesia Memories, but I could see Azul following a similar path to the Joker World/Ukyo (they are not similar characters but meh) in a situation like this. Won't spoil that here but I highly recommend it if you like otome games.
Malleus
In a twisted way I could almost see him being satisfied with being stuck inside a time loop trying to save you. Not at first obviously, at first Malleus refuses to believe he could fail in saving you. He is the fifth most powerful mage in the universe. He is a King, he can not think of anyone, anything that is stupid enough to tell him no.
Maybe he speed runs his own overblot and tries trapping you in a dream, only for that to kill you. Reset.
How about killing the other overblot mages? He'd arrive at that one a lot faster than Vil. Also doesn't work. Reset.
I don't think Malleus would bring Lilia, Silver, or Sebek into the loop of what was going on. Lilia- he's smart, old, and understands just how powerful Malleus really is, but I'm not sure he would be able to realize time itself is being reset. I think he would pick up on what Malleus's plan is in each individual universe and goes out of his way to prevent him from doing something stupid. You know who I could see picking up on it though? Leona and Idia, forcing them to work together to get Malleus to stop further driving a wedge between Malleus and the rest of the student body.
And then there is you, troublesome you. We don't really know what causes Grim to overblot, I could almost see a situation where Yuu does everything they can to save their friends, aware that time is being reset and thinking that finally, this time they can keep everyone from dying. They are completely content to die if it means no one else gets hurt, completely unaware that self sacrifice is what is causing all of this. What is one life compared to everyone in all of Twisted Wonderland after all?
Everything, it is worth everything, this world really is meaningless without you in it. Reset.

God thank you for the siren simpbur. I am in love. What about a simp Revivebur? One can only imagine how desperate he would be after 13 long years by himself.
Also can I be ❄ anon if you are doing that?
Aw yeah! This is my first labeled annon. And good choice with the snowflake; winter is my favorite season after all :]
As for the Revivebur ask, let's get into that for a second.
I think you're right. After 13 years of being alone with nothing but Mexican Dream, Schlatt, and slow card games to keep him company, Revivebur has turned bitter and touch starved. (That is, if he wasn't already.)
Honestly, you were probably a new addition to the server when he first met you. In Las Nevadas no less. You were most likely visiting to say hi to Foolish or Purpled and bumped into the zombie man on the streets along the way.
At first he had scoffed seeing you. Just another random civilian that would scramble out of his way in fear after getting a good look at his face and recognizing who he is.
But you just gave him a once over, smiling before complamenting the white streak in his hair and moving on calmly.
This had shocked him for more than one reason. One being that you hadnt even given him so much as a sliver of a reaction. The other being that, seeing as he hated the reminder of the dark and grimey train station, the dyed piece of hair was something that he hadn't expected someone to notice.
Somehow when you complimented it however, it suddenly didn't seem so bad.
In the next following weeks, Revivebur would not leave Quackity alone as to who that stranger in the streets was. He would resort to following the casino owner around and just repeating "who are they who are they who are they who are they" like an annoying child on a car trip, before the ravenette finally broke.
Quackity informed the tall man as to who you were. Just a friend of some of his workers that lived near the outskirts of his town and distracted the employees far too much for his liking.
While Revivebur wanted to stay and dote on Quackity for insulting you, the need to go and see if this information was true overpowered it. So with a tip of his nonexistent hat, he was off to the edge of Las Nevadas.
Turns out Quackity was telling the truth. You lived in a strangely built house made of plaster and red shingles that looked like they were baked in an oven. There was even canopy with lanterns out in the backyard from what Revivebur could see.
After marking down where your house is located, you best believe that you'd be receiving anonymous gifts from an unnamed source.
Gift baskets full of little treats and trinkets tailored to your taste appeared once every week. (Sometimes more) You like frogs? Expect little clay figurines of the animals to be scattered amongst your favorite sweets. How about books? Only the finest novels for his love. Revivebur would even read them before giving‌ it to you; annotating and writing little notes as he did so to make it all the more fun.
Handwritten poems were attached as well, and even song lyrics that sounded well thought out.
It would have been weird to you if Slime hadn't let slip one day that he heard from a customer that heard from Purpled that heard from Follish that heard from Quackity that heard from Revivebur that he was the person leaving things for you.
(Yeah. It took a while to pry all of that our of the green tinted man...)
So boy was Revivebur surprised when a certain someone showed up at his burger cans window the next day, smiling and ready to introduce yourself.
