Wonderland: Day One

[wonderlandian]

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.]

You think? Daring like you, I take it?

[Go for all of the above. Bunny chuckles, arching an eyebrow at her]

You'd have to follow to see.

[And he'll just drop down. It's not as much as a vertical drop as his burrow in the castle's gardens, after all, he's made it in mind for the humans, more than him. And inside, there's a nice spacious cavern]

I'll need to find some things to make a fire and something to make a bed for you ladies, but I think it'll do in a pinch.

[wolfchild]

He loved climbing. He could climb anything.

[wolfchild]

[ Arya pulls one of his ears. ]

I'm not a lady.

[ Hopping down, she waits for her eyes to adjust to the change in light. ] I'm used to sleeping on the floor. As long as it's not mud, I'm fine.

[save_the_souls]

Oh- go ahead!

Timcanpy- [Tim sees the hand holding up, and knows that the cue to land straight on the hand with the grace practiced to impress the ladies B) ]

[save_the_souls]

But...

Surely she'll notice that the roses were painted, won't she?

[onlyanapple]

Or we might get a canon to the face.

[He glances around, before groaning and making towards the castle] Has to be better than hanging around by the creepy maze, though.

[save_the_souls]

Please, you almost never get cannons to the face on the first days of these trips!

[As always, its hard to tell if that was a joke or not]

My thoughts exactly, so let's go.

[save_the_souls]

I guess it was determined to bring us in here.

Mm, that's my name! It's too bad we couldn't have seen each other again under better circumstances.

[save_the_souls]

[And he follows]

The King?

[ftssusstgsetfwe]

Oh, but you're missing out so terribly!

[ftssusstgsetfwe]

[She shakes her head but follows, walking very briskly to keep up.]

You should come, my dear, you could use the fun!

[dupable]

Same... so it must be some kind of weird castle thing. It is pretty much always some weird castle thing.

[holyrabies]

No, I'm exploring! But are you lost? I can help you, if you are!

[righttrack]

Um, no? How do you figure that? Because I'm pretty sure I'm all human.

[righttrack]

I wonder, too... I mean, it could be a very indirect way of trying to kill them, but that's too much of a stretch. On the other hand, if you wanted to change the color, wouldn't it make more sense to just plant new roses?

[solowingpixy]

I'm hardly judging you- [okay maybe a little] -but I think it would be easy to assume you wouldn't know your way to Belka. Even that Paradisa place would be more acceptable right now.

[He'll make a quick glance around the wood before looking back at the knight.]

So, where exactly are we?

[schrodingersghost]

Huh. That's different. [His ghost sense hadn't gone off.] What are you?

[heliotroping]

[Nearby, another flower keeps bouncing around, trying to get a better look at the sun]

Many rude folks... They keep blocking the light!

[schrodingersghost]

No problem.

[schrodingersghost]

Yeah, that was my guess.

[impetuous]

[ Head shake. ]

Guests have ruined my appetite.

[impetuous]

The Queen of Hearts.

[cyan_maid]

How true! But why would you want to kill such lovely roses in the first place.

Hm...well, judging by how sloppily they've been painted, I would say that perhaps there wasn't enough time to replant red roses to replace these. Compared to growing plants, painting them IS somewhat faster, if a pain. It doesn't make this any less strange, though.

[cyan_maid]

[Jane shakes her head.] Not at all. Do you?
