- ―Riliane and Alexiel Lucifen d'Autriche[src]
Twiright Prank is a song released on January 27, 2010 as part of The Daughter of Evil ~Gemini of Charm~ stage production and later uploaded with a PV by Akuno-P on August 3 the same year. It is the fifth song in The Daughter of Evil Series and acts as a prequel to the other songs in the series.
Plot
On a beach, two twins, a boy and a girl, are alone in the twilight. The girl trips and is comforted by the boy, as she notes they should get home before it becomes dark. The boy witnesses a hungry demon threatening them and wants to go home before they're eaten. They both note how they found and buried a chest on the beach, but it's too dark to find it. The two decide to "split" the twilight between each other, the girl being "day" and the boy being "night," creating a "beautiful orange sky" when they hold hands. Later, as a bell tolls three times, the demon returns; the girl refuses to share her snack with the demon, but the boy feels pity and gives some of his. In return, the demon tells him a secret about the ocean. Later, the boy promises to share the secret with the girl.
Lyrics
なにもないところで
突然つまずいて泣き出した
大丈夫 それはきっと
悪い夕暮れのいたずらよ
早く帰らなきゃ
暗くなる前に
水平線の向こうで
アクマがニコリと笑ってた
「私の黒いお腹に
君たちを入れて遊ぼうよ」
早く帰らなきゃ
食べられる前に
砂浜に隠してた
小さな箱は
夜の闇 包まれて
もう二度と見つからない
夕焼けを二人で
半分ずつ分け合おう
私は昼
僕は夜
手をつなげばオレンジの空
三度目の鐘の音は
アクマが目を覚ます合図
物欲しそうな顔をして
ジロリとこちらを見つめてる
私のおやつは
あげないからね!
お腹が空いたとアクマが
とても悲しそうな顔をした
「世界を全て呑み込んでも
私のお腹はふくれないの」
かわいそうだから
おやつを分けてあげる
「ありがとう王子様
お礼にこの海の
小さな秘密を
こっそり教えてあげましょう」
夕焼けを二人で
半分ずつ分け合おう
後で君にも教えてあげる
この海の素敵な秘密
夕焼けを二人で
半分ずつ分け合おう
私は昼
僕は夜
手をつなげばオレンジの空

At a place with nothing there
I suddenly tripped and burst into tears
It’s alright, this is surely
A prank of the bad twilight
We should return soon
Before it gets dark
At the other end of the sea’s horizon
The demon sweetly sneered
“I’ll put you in
My black stomach, and then let’s play”
We should return soon
Before we’re eaten
The small box
We had hidden in the sandy beach
It’s wrapped in the night’s darkness
It will never be found again
Let’s share the sunset
One half each
I’ll be the day
I’ll be the night
If we join hands, we get an orange sky
The third ring of the bell is
A signal that the demon is awakening
Making a greedy face
It fixes a glance this way
Because I won’t
Give up my snack!
With its stomach empty, the demon
Made a very sad looking face
“Even if I swallowed down the whole world
My stomach won’t get full”
I pity it, so
I’ll share my snack
“Thank you, dear prince
In thanks, I shall covertly
Tell you a small secret
Of this sea”
Let’s share the sunset
One half each
Later I’ll tell you too
The wonderful secret of this sea
Let’s share the sunset
One half each
I’ll be the day
I’ll be the night
If we join hands, we get an orange sky

Trivia
Conceptualization and Origin
- The word twiright is an Engrish derivative of the word "twilight"; on his blog, mothy states he intentionally changed the spelling to create a portmanteau of the words "twist" and "right".[1]
- The song is performed by Rin and Len, with Alexiel giving the sweet to the demon and Riliane refusing to share hers, reinforcing the wordplay.[2]
- The "prank" performed in the song refers to the mischievous trick played on the twins by Abyss I.R., who purposefully set them up to be attacked by the demon.
- The song's English title, "Day and night", alludes to the twins' decision to split day and night between them.
Curiosities
- A short story elaborating on the events in the song is included in Entr'acte of Evil: The Daughter of Evil Worldguide.
- In the song PV, a stylized silhouette of the Demon of Gluttony appears in the form of Banica Conchita.
- The secret of the ocean mentioned references Regret Message, where Riliane remembers Alexiel telling her about the legend; its role and origin is further elaborated upon in the novels The Daughter of Evil: Clôture of Yellow and The Daughter of Evil: Wiegenlied of Green.
- The twins' division of the day and night is reflected in their fates, with Riliane being the public face hated by all while her brother would be relatively unknown, his shady actions obscured in history.
- The song was originally composed for the Theater Play event performed by Asami Shimoda, the voice provider for Kagamine Rin and Len.
- The surname of Seth Twiright contains the same meaning and wordplay on "twilight" as the song, although the two are from completely different series and bear no other apparent connection.
