SO THIS LITTLE WEIRDO I'M CONSIDERING is going to need some AU TLC. Her name is Dark Dream and she is a magical girl's evil twin who existed for a grand total of maybe two days from when she popped into existence to when she heroically sacrificed herself to save her original who she was supposed to kill.

So yeah in order to exist in Lethevale's setting she kind of needs an entirely new history. WOW I SURE CAN PICK 'EM

...I mean I'm guessing real fucked up noble family politics might work because that seems like the weird bullshit European nobles get up to in gothic horrors like this.

I'd been vaguely considering making them cousins, and now you've got me Thinking. Dark Dream could be the daughter of the younger sibling, who very deliberately raised her with an awareness of all she stands to gain if her cousin were to suffer an unfortunate accident.

Yeah... I'm not canon familiar, but I figure that works out pretty well for an AU thing. (of course i'm sure the memories will be weird as fuck but that's the whole fun of it)

[imozon]

The really weird part will be how technically she also has a complete set of the other girl's memories up to the point where she was created and oh my god I just realized that her first memory regain absolutely has to be one of those.

HOLY SHIT, YEAH. This poor child is gonna get such a mindfuck I tell you what.
