The Queen's Courtyard and Castle

[wonderlandian]

[The hedge mazes, croquet grounds, and endless rooms of odd furniture are still around! Be careful that you don't lose your head!]

[eat_me_beat_me]

[There is a fairy flitting around between the roses with a small bucket and paintbrush. She's half-heartedly painting the white roses red... though many of them are left unfinished as she moves on to the next one.

Bored as hell she starts to paint the leaves around the roses, leaving rings of red leaves around white roses]

[3nterprising]

[Faye notices a ring of red leaves, finding the color contrast oddly interesting. She stares a bit longer when she notices the small fairy painting the plants. She's seen so many other things that the sight of a fairy almost doesn't surprise her at all.]

It looks better that way.

[silentrunning]

[Chell's just kind of exploring, still trying to get her bearings in this weird new place she found herself in yesterday.

Hmm. Those flowers are pretty. Really pretty... She's peering at one when she notices that there's red leaves around the white rose. Leaning forward, she sniffs the rose. Hmm. The color contrast looks nice...

She's not seen many roses in her day, but she's definitely never seen roses with red leaves... And that's when she notices the little fairy... And waves. She always waves at fairies when she sees them. Besides she thiiiinks she might know that particular fairy.

"Hey."

[she says softly.]

Re: The Queen's Courtyard and Castle

[the_effect_she_has]

[Katniss has been keeping to the hedges and the shadows. Hunting down food when she could, and avoiding the King and Queen's guards without hurting them. There were way too many familiar faces here.]

[teratologist]

Where are my tarts?

They were right here. Just twenty minutes ago I saw them myself.

[The Queen shoved at the two cards who were a walking sideboard as they held a table between them and followed her at her command.]

WHERE ARE MY TARTS!

The Castle Kitchen

[clockworkchild]

[The cook glowers and hurls a pan against the wall]

Not this pan, you imbecile, I want the other one!

The Tulgey Wood

[wonderlandian]

[The Tulgey Wood is also still around, and still teeming with unique animals. Don't venture in too far, though, or you'll find yourself well in the dark.]

The Flowers

[yay_heiress]

[London can still be found near the water's edge, being beautiful as always. She's a flower; it's all she knows how to do.]

I'm so glad I live on the water. It makes it so much easier to see my own reflection!

Re: The Tulgey Wood

[the_effect_she_has]

[Katniss tied herself to one of the safer trees in the night, and she spent half of her time haunting the woods. Looking for a safe spot for everyone to escape to, if necessary.]

[emboldens]

[ Well. She has been so careful to not get herself lost, but it has finally happened! Igraine is hopelessly lost and very alone right now. While she could sit here all day and kick herself for her decision to wander away from Morgana, she's decided to try and retrace her steps back.

But it just isn't working and she can't help but feel a little uneasy. It feels more and more like she's only succeeding in traveling deeper into the woods, judging by how dark it appears to have become. What a sight she must be, her long hair free flowing and littered with stray twigs and leaves.

Oh, she will never trust mirrors ever again. ]

What a time to become lost..

Beach

[wonderlandian]

[There's a lovely beach down this way, with a perpetual look of sunrise to it. This is a favorite haunt of many Wonderland beings, and it is said the oysters in the water are quite delicious.]

[waterproofed]

[because really, where else would Percy be? Even as a centaur he has a strong love of the sea. He clops along enjoying the breeze]

The Gryphon

[kungfuwitch]

[The Gryphon has decided to get away from the Queen's court for a little while. Too many executions and too much screaming for her taste. Really. She has better things to do with her time than watch one beheading after another.

So she's decided to spend the day at the beach. She found a nice large rock to stretch out on and is lazily watching the passings by with the hope that some of these newcomers might have a tale or two to tell.]

[billiardsplz]

[Regular bloke, but hot damn!]

Finally! A wall-less beach!

[Gold kicks off his shoes and goes straight to the water]

[majestic_leader]

[Ah yes, the beach. The Dodo has hooked a couple feathers in his fest and is walking about with an air of import.]

The Mad Tea Party

[wonderlandian]

[Between two houses is an overloaded table. It seems the Mad Tea Party has finally started!]

[spongetastic]

[this is possibly the longest the Dormouse has ever been awake. It was far too quiet and peaceful without the other two. But now they're coming back and things can go back to chaos]

[ftssusstgsetfwe]

[It's finally ready! The tea party Hatter has been so excited about has begun, and the table is full of teacups and kettles with a number of different flavors of tea in them. There's also cookies and buttered bread, and many a jar of jam and mustard.

Standing on the table is the Mad Hatter, shouting at the top of her lungs:]

Come on, now! Time for tea, time for tea!

[cyan_maid]

[Well, well! A whole day in this odd place hasn't made it any less curious. How Jane found herself here from the Queen's Courtyard, she'll never know, but she looks on at the tea party, fascinated. She IS somewhat famished...but she is still operating on real world logic. Wouldn't she need an invitation?]

The Wall

[wonderlandian]

[It may seem like just a wall, but this has always been a stage for some of Wonderlands greatest disasters! Just ask Humpty Dumpty... Oh wait, you can't. It may be worth exploring, though... Or the perfect scene for a battle between two bitter rivals.]

[rogueofheart]

[While the wall might be a perfect scene for battle, this sleepy lion would prefer to have a catnap instead. Just for now. Battling is hard work, after all, and she finds that it takes quite a bit out of her.

She'll just rest here. It's as good as any place, right?]

Mirror, Mirror

[wonderlandian]

[Last but not least, the Mirror is still in the lobby... But it will no longer take people in. Rather, it will allow those still in the castle to see their companions in Wonderland, and even communicate with them, as they appear before those in Wonderland in ghostly form.]

[pocketmage]

[ Genis is very careful about approaching the mirror. After all, he got stuck in one last time, when he got replaced by his 'Fool'- and he was warned against getting close to this one. But he feels an overbearing urge to help.

So, a stack of library books in hand about 'Wonderland', Genis gets closer to the mirror...

[protosshaze]

[Sophie finds this mirror very interesting. She peers at it from every side]

How strange...
