Theory: What Silver Is Truly Twisted From

A Happy Belated Birthday Silver!!!!!!!

(Would you believe me if I told you, I had this in my drafts for a while now, only as part of a bigger post for all the ‘?’ students and decided to rework Silver’s bit as a belated Birthday Gift to him??? 😅)

So I’ve seen plenty of theories on Silver’s true identity and the most prevalent theory is that Silver is twisted from the Sword of Truth; the sword that killed Maleficent in the original ‘Sleeping Beauty’

And I’m very confident when I say that I don’t think that theory’s wrong.

I know the theory’s wrong.

Normally, I would NEVER say something as confidently as I’m saying this, so I hope that convinces you to give, what I’m about to say, a try.

So first thing’s first; if Silver’s not twisted from the Sword of Truth, what is he twisted from?

Well the biggest clue to his identity, sans icon, is the fact that he uses light magic for his Null attacks—meaning he’s not twisted from something villainous

What fueled this theory was actually another Silver theory; and that’s, that he’s twisted from Aurora herself.

The evidence provided for this speculation is the fact that he exhibits traits similar to Aurora; attracting animals, purple eyes, and a tendency to fall asleep.

But that’s also wrong.

Because while Aurora does indeed share those traits with Silver, it’s not because he’s twisted from Aurora—rather Silver is twisted from what she has.

In other words: Silver is twisted from the Three Good Fairies’ Gifts.

See:

Aurora’s purple eyes were a signifier of her literal enchanted beauty, the Gift of Beauty; Silver’s eyes are explicitly called aurora silver, both in the Magical Archives and in-game, referred to as ‘aurora’, and look purple—in fact if you look closer you’ll notice that his eyes have shades of blue and pink in them. Sound familiar?

Silver’s strange, natural affinity for animals, despite not being good at Animal Languages, is a carry over from Fauna’s Gift of Song, where Aurora’s singing would be so beautiful, animals couldn’t help but be drawn to her. Silver mentions how the animals would always come to him, when he was feeling particularly downtrodden, echoing how Aurora’s animal friends comforted her, when she was feeling lonely.

His tendency to fall asleep, which originally led to theories that he’s twisted from Maleficent’s Curse or the Spindle of the Cursed Spinning Wheel, but that’s already been disproven, by virtue of the detail of his Null Magic above. Moreover, Maleficent’s Curse was that Aurora would die; it was Merryweather that altered the curse so that Aurora would fall asleep instead. So ultimately, Silver’s sleepiness is a result of Merryweather’s Gift.

What gives this theory even further weight is the fact that very suspiciously, Silver of all Diasomnia students, has a classroom chat where he not only mentions a ‘princess from a long time ago’ who received magical gifts from Three Fairies, but name-drops all the gifts.

With his Birthday Suit Up, comes further lore, but also the eagerly anticipated pin, which looks like this:

People were quick to point out the fact that the pattern behind the sword on the pin was none other than Aurora’s Crown itself. So naturally people doubled down on the Aurora Theory.

But remember.

Aurora’s Crown was also a gift.

“This one last gift, dear child for thee, a symbol of thy royalty; a crown to wear in grace and beauty, as is thy right and royal duty.” -Flora

And it was a gift from all the Three Good Fairies.

So then, how should I explain all the sword imagery, if Silver’s not twisted from the Sword of Truth?

Well it’s simple.

The Sword Icon for Silver is an analogue.

It’s supposed to be a physical way to represent the fact that Silver’s the Three Gifts, because let’s be honest, how are you supposed to visually depict something that abstract without the design getting overly complicated?

The Sword was picked because, it too, once again, was a gift; something from Flora to Prince Philip.

The best way to summarise the fact that Silver’s the Three Gifts is by hinting at it with another, more tangible gift.

And that, my fellow TWST Fans, is my evidence on what Silver truly is.

TL;DR

Silver’s twisted from the Three Good Fairies’ Gifts.

Kismet, my beloved 💍

sukuna being a simp for his wife (marriage hcs)

let's say you're a curse ;)

first of all its gonna take years for sukuna to even allow you too to be close, stuff like touching and the idea of affection is a no </3

when you do get close however, hes still gonna be a lil shit 🙄

such a tsundere, LIKE SIR you don't have to 'tch' everytime i love you ✋

eventually y'all get married

he didn't give you a ring or anything, instead he essentially 'branded' you like wtf

he put his hand to your heart and made a special mark appear, black like his own. hurt like a bitch but he pressed a lil kith to it and muttered "you're mine" so that was cute or whateva

from then on out he begins to become more ✨simp-like✨

didn't show it much at first because he's the king of curses yaknow he got a reputation 👊

but guess what YOU'RE HIS WIFEY NOW

WHAT'S HE GONNA DO WHEN YOU ASK FOR A MASSAGE? SAY NO?

he's still gonna grumble about but he's smitten and you know his teehee

he loves hearing your giggles when he carries you bridal-style around everywhere

years pass and you are eventually separated woah

you've found a couple of his fingers and kept them safe for him <3

eventually you stumble upon itadori the night he eats sukuna's finger (you were mad confused cause what sane person eats a fucking thousand year-old finger)

n e ways you were there to witness when itadori "turned" into sukuna

he didn't notice you at first 😔

so when he said "where are all the woman?" you highkey got offended sjdksks

he heard the offended noise you made and turned around

DEADASS HE POINTED AT YOU LIKE THAT SPIDERMAN MEME LMFAO

nah but you were still salty about that comment so you said "adios ✌" and poofed into thin air

as you should, as you should

he miraculously manages to convince itadori to swap with him so he can search for you

he finds you sitting on the engawa of an old japanese home (it was actually the one you and him both resided in from time to time, but he didn't remember)

you were peacefully stitching a hole back up in your kimono, one that he gave you

he had quietly sat down next to you but you didn't acknowledge him

he's getting desperate (that's right sis make him chase you 😳)

so he gently called you your name, and linked hands with yours

you ignored him cause your petty and he needs to show some more effort shdjajnz

so he wraps his arm around you and tugs you to him, nuzzling his face into the mark on your chest

okay now you can hug him 👍

"i'm yours, and your mine. don't forget that" SIR MY HEART

bro imagine the look on itadori's face when you tell sukuna to shut up when he appears on his cheek and he just grumbles and does what you say

literally *surprised pikachu*

BONUS

sitting on sukuna's lap while he's on his extra asf skull throne, with your kimono falling tastefully over your shoulder so it shows his mark <3
