Wonderland: Day One
The residents of Paradisa who ventured into the lobby on the 13th would find something new there; a mirror spanning an entire wall. Given recent happenings, who can blame them if they're cautious? Trouble is, this mirror seems to really want to bring people in, because you don't have to get too close before you're through the looking glass.
Once you've gone, you may find that you're not quite yourself.[Notes/Reminders: Type 1 and Type 2 characters will believe they are Wonderland natives. All characters, including those not entering Wonderland, will be able to use their journals; Wonderland "natives" will think it is a communication device exclusive to Wonderland, although communication between Paradisa and Wonderland through the journals is absolutely possible. You may NPC any number of Tulgey Wood creatures, except for the Jabberwocky.]

Mirror, mirror
The place to play out characters being taken through the looking glass, if you so wish. This can absolutely be handwaved.]

The reflection catches his eye as he turns the corner and before he gives it a good once over -- he disappears.]

Before she can get too close, though, she's disappeared!]

Then she notices it. A huge mirror, right in the lobby. Which is curiously vacant, for that matter.
She takes a cautious step or two forward.]
Huh. Something doesn't feel righ-
[She might not have noticed at all, if she weren't used to entering TVs back home. In the split-second she realizes she's being drawn in, a shriek of surprise cuts her words short. And then, she's gone.]
Re: Mirror, mirror
[Then without a breath, she steps through.]

Of course, with his attention caught and catching a glimp of the reflection--BAMPH, he was gone in the blink of an eye.]

raiding itfinding herself some food when the mirror catches her eye. The sunlight hitting it makes the mirror shine. Could that be...?]A twinkle! [Oh boy, she found one! Sugar goes flying straight for the mirror and then vanishes.]
no subject
Huh, that was not there yesterday.
[Oh, and there's someone else's reflection there too. She perks up and turns to wave at him.] Hey, Allen!

The roses catch his attention, and he breaks one off to examine, like that's suddenly important. Then his stomach growls. This really could have waited until after breakfast...]

[Asuna cuts herself off and quickly reaches for the rapier at her hip, gripping the hilt tightly. It's better to be safe than sorry at this point.]
Hello?

And given the appearance of this courtyard? He didn't have much hope that this place would be even more logical.
He makes his way around the courtyard inspecting everything he could reach. Eventually he reaches the roses and stops.]
Red paint? They painted the roses? How does that even make sense?

That hedge maze picture is from KH isn't it
WHOA!!
[When Jane gets her bearings back, she looks around, and her eyes narrow as she takes in every new thing.]
Well, I can't say I didn't walk right into this one...

It doesn't really improve things.]
Okay, seriously now. Why is it always mazes? Nothing good ever happens in those places.
[He slowly drifts back down until he's hovering just above the hedges. And then he starts heading for the castle.]

They have been.. painted?
[ Strange, but she's seen stranger things in Paradisa; so they're bypassed in favor of the hedge maze. While she doesn't want to stray too far, she can't help but walk toward the start of the maze. Had she arrived here alone? She reaches out, brushing her fingers against the wall of the maze while murmuring: ]
Perhaps, it would be wise to search for a familiar face..

The White Rabbit
Oh no! I'm late! I'm late and I'm lost! How does this happen every time? This time...
[And if you're lucky enough, when you turn the corner, you may just see an oddly dressed boy with rabbit ears standing anxiously at the fork between pathways, apparently trying to remember the way.
If you're really lucky, when you turn the corner he might slam right into you. He's kind of in a rush.]

[Luke wasn't sure what to expect when he went through the mirror, but it certainly wasn't a hedge maze. After a few minutes, he finds himself at a dead end.
Welp, this was going to take a while.]

Hearing quite a commotion nearby, she turns away from a rather shoddily-painted piece to see a few unfamiliar visitors.]
Ooh, we have guests?
[The courtyard is in no shape for guests, in her humble opinion. But she's much more interested in them than the state of the grounds. Let some other fairy worry about the painting and the pruning and whatever else they were supposed to be doing.]

The Queen's Castle
At the center of it all is the rather unique throne room. The two thrones at the center are all that lets one know it's not simply an elaborate dining room. There are also guest rooms throughout the castle.]

No. No. Let him go. Go on then. Go on.
[ The soldiers move aside and the gardener scurries off as quick as his feet can take him. The king (for it was the king speaking) sighs. His head jerks up in annoyance when the soldiers continue standing there doing nothing. ]
The doors. You shan't expect me to open them myself!
[ And the soldiers fall over themselves to open the doors to the throne room for him. ]

The Tulgey Wood
There's interesting creatures all around. Many appear related to birds, for some reason.
Go deep enough in the woods, though, and you reach a place where none of the animals go. It is much darker than the rest of the forest, and seems to be beneath a night sky with a full moon even during the day. The trees here all seem to be dying...]
