Shattered Reflections (Twisted Wonderland x Gojo Reader)

Welcome to the Villains' World - Student of Night Raven College

The group returned to the Mirror Chamber, where they were greeted by the headmage.

"Pardon?! You're telling me you actually went to the Dwarfs' Mine in search of a magestone?" Crowley asked, clearly surprised.

The group exchanged confused looks. "Uh...? Yes?" one of them responded

"I didn't expect that you'd seriously do it. And never in my wildest imaginings did I think you would actually return with a magestone! And here I spent all evening preparing your expulsion documents." Crowley muttered

Grim stared at him in disbelief, "Are you serious?! While we were fightin' some crazy monster for you, you were expelling us?!"

"Monster...?" That caught Crowley's attention, as he looked back at the group in confusion.

"Yeah. There was a monster, all right. A big, nasty one. It nearly killed us!" Ace chimed in, crossing his arms.

"Would you kindly relate this story in full?" Crowley asked, taking them all to his office to hear the entire story.

~~~

In his office, Crowley summarized their tale. "Hmmm. So a mysterious monster was living in the mines. And the four of you worked together to destroy it, and then brought its magestone back to me?"

"I don't know that I'd call it "working together" Ace said, making a face.

"It was more like we just happened to share the same goal at the same time..." Deuce added.

(y/n) sighed internally, thinking 'Why are boys always so embarrassed by this? No one's asking them to date each other...'

"Oh, gracious..." Crowley interrupted her thoughts, his eyes watering. "Ohhh... Ohhhhhhhhh!" He pulled out a handkerchief, much to Grim's annoyance.

"What is this guy's deal?! Burstin' into tears in public? At this age?!" Grim muttered.

"In all the decades I've worked at this school... The day has finally come when the students of Night Raven College have joined hands together to defeat a common foe!" Crowley exclaimed, dabbing his eyes.

"Whoa! No!" Deuce interjected, "No way would I join hands with that guy!"

"Okay, one, there was no joining of hands. Gross. And two, exactly HOW old are you, headmage?" Ace added, suspiciously eyeing Crowley.

Ignoring them, Crowley turned his attention to (y/n), his eyes shining with enthusiasm. "At this moment, I am moved beyond words. This incident has proven my hopes were justified. (y/n), my doubts allayed! For you... You possess the talents of a beastmaster!"

"A...A beastmaster?" (y/n) tilted her head in confusion.

"My students have all been selected by the Dark Mirror for their exceptional talent and potential. But great talent begets great and big egos. Most are so self-reliant and self-centered that they never even consider cooperating with others" Crowley announced proudly.

"You make it sound like that's a bad thing" Grim frowned, paws on his waist.

"But you, (y/n), possess no magic. Yet in spite of that - or perhaps because of it - you were able to convince those who CAN use magic to work together for a common goal. The everyday, humdrum mundanity you possess may be exactly what Night Raven College needs!" Crowley continued

"But... none of those words are good things?" Ace frowned.

Even (y/n) is confused, 'But I do have cursed energy...'

"(y/n)..." Crowley continued, more seriously now. "I am convinced that people like you are necessary for the future of this school. My educator's intuition tells me so."
