[Filtered to Castle Residents in Wonderland that HAVEN'T lost their minds/memories]

I don't know who else got sucked into that mirror, but please be very careful. I went to see the King and well, it seems that the entire royal court is mad. The King threatened to behead his own guards because they sweated! And from what I hear? The Queen is even worse, though I was fortunate enough not to see her.

So please, watch yourselves. Who knows what other insane laws are considered to be punishable by death in this realm.

If it's any consolation, the King is a former resident of Paradisa. If it like past world changes, sometime during the week we may be able to jog his memories and snap him out of it. I...don't know about the Queen though.

There's going to be a royal croquet match sometime. Apparently the entire court is there, maybe more former residents will be there. I plan to go in hopes of jogging the King's memories or anyone else, but I will not blame anyone if they wish to remain as far away from this court as possible.

If you do go...whatever you do, please make sure the Queen wins.

[People Back in Paradisa]

There's a mirror of some sort in the lobby. Whatever you do, stay away from it. Don't even step near it, you don't have to touch it to have it suck you in.

A bunch of us seem to be stuck in a place called Wonderland. It's a strange world with odd creatures and an extremely mad dictatorship. If people can help see if there's a way to get us out of here from your side, we'd very much appreciate it.

Ah...also, has anyone in the castle seen Tsuna today?

Thank you.

[Oh thank God topic change]

All right, thank you very much, Arya!

All I did was ask.

Still. I wouldn't have known about your friend's ability if it wasn't for you.

[ Allen, you are so weird. ]

It's close to the signs in the woods. Not too far from the castle. Don't trust the roads. There's a dog, I think it is, that brushes them gone.

He brushes the roads gone?

He has brushes. As he walks, he brushes them away.

....

This place gets stranger and stranger.

[ And yet it's better than Westeros and she has a six foot rabbit friend who'll rip the spine out of anyone who even looks at her funny and give it to her for a present so this is the GREATEST HOLIDAY EVER. ]

Stop looking for sense and it'll make sense. [ read: just go with the flow. not worth starting a fight with insane people. ]

Eh?

[WHAT IS THIS LOGIC]

It's not worth getting bothered by every mad thing here. Else you won't be able to think of anything but how mad it is. Just get on with it. Nothing here makes sense so expecting sensible things is stupid. Better to expect the madness and get on.

Besides, getting angry at everything won't help us any if we need to escape. That'll just make people act stupid. No one stupid survives a court. [ See: stupid, honorable Ned. ] You have to be clever. I'd say anyone who goes to the court ought pretend to be as mad. It'll make you invisible really and you can get by and see and then know what you have to do. Drawing attention only means you're like to lose your head too.

[a surprised pause]

That's...a really good idea.

So it's simply better to act mad as well, or as if everything makes sense even if doesn't, and then I'll blend in and be able to find a way out of here?

You don't need to sound so surprised.

But yes. It's what I'd do. [ And did. Harrenhal, forging valuable life experience. Harrenhal not responsible for any trauma caused by this product ]

I didn't think of it that way!

But I'll keep it in mind. Thank you, Arya.

[ Fine. She'll let it go. B( ]

Find an escape first. [ Just in case. ]

I will. Last thing I want to do is get executed.

[ What you want won't matter to them. ]

I'll keep a space here for you.

[ She closes the journal. ]

[It sure does when you're the british hate child of spiderman and wolverine man]

Thanks.
