Tweedles

[lord_wizard]

You know, it’s rather terribly rude of you all to go on about how out of sorts things are here.

We’re perfectly well-sorted here, thank you. Have you considered that you’re the ones who need sorting? You’re guests, after all - complaining that things aren’t as they are in your own homes is very unseemly.

Quite so. Our seeming is very much in order, thank you all for not asking. And while you’re not asking perhaps you should ask yourselves if maybe you’re more turned around than you think.

Turn yourselves right around and go home, if you ask us. Which you’re not.

Certainly not. We should sort some manners into these silly darlings.

Absolutely so, my dear brother. We’re paragons of good grace after all.

Perhaps maybe introducing yourselves before trodding all over our grass and insulting the Queen.

Possibly probably say - “Oh hello, good sirs and ladies, my name is Tweedle Dum”

Well, except they wouldn’t because that’s your name.

No of course not, Tweedle Dee, they don’t have as much good sense to be me.

Or me.

Herd the rude-stupid ones my way?

[ Hopefully they won't taste rude as well? ]

[lord_wizard]

You'd have a full belly very soon, my dear sphinx.

[legacydeck]

Very full indeed! Though perhaps a bit sore - they seem unpleasant all around.

[kungfuwitch]

[she chuckles] Boys, boys, I don't think any of them have any sense to speak of at all.

[legacydeck]

No sense at all? I wonder how they see and hear, then...

[kungfuwitch]

Clearly not very well the way they've been blundering about.

[twisted_baroque]

[this card soldier has to agree.]

They're a little strange. Maybe their heads are not on right?

[lord_wizard]

I imagine the Queen would be happy to fix that for them

[Cue giggling]

[twisted_baroque]

I don't know. They can't be put back on when they come off.

[wait, how does he know that? oh right, he works for someone who likes cutting people's heads off.]

Maybe thinking forwards might help if they're thinking backwards.

[onlyanapple]

...Felix?

[lord_wizard]

Who is Felix? Have you lost a pet, along with your sense? How sad.

[legacydeck]

Do they have enough sense to feel sad, I wonder? Or just confused?

[onlyanapple]

Yeah, sure. A really annoying pet that might have walked into a wall and damaged his brain.

[hard_talker]

It ain't just them. ... Nora's like this, too.

Mark

[onlyanapple]

...Well, bollocks. Just when I thought this insanity couldn't get deeper.

[squartatore]

Finally, someone -- pardon, make that sometwo -- are speaking up. This has gone from silly to annoying.

[lord_wizard]

We do our best to serve. Have they bothered you much as well, poor thing?

[legacydeck]

I dare say. They're a bother all around, even if they are guests.

[hard_talker]

Jesus Christ, you're fuckin' kidding me.

[lord_wizard]

Whom are you addressing?

[hard_talker]

Youm, I'm pretty sure. Lemme guess, you don't remember me either.

[silentrunning]

[Chell furrows her brows. She'd not introduced herself had she. And she's read about manners... So she'll give it a quick try. Picking up her journal, she writes back.]

I beg your pardon, good sirs. My name is Chell. I apologize for not introducing myself. And I have most certainly not insulted anyone. The only reason I did not introduce myself earlier is I am a bit shy, and it takes me a bit of time to get up my nerve, and everyone here has always seemed so busy that I did not want to interrupt them.

[She sets down her pen and in trepidation waits for a response.]

[lord_wizard]

Well, at least one person here is polite. Your apology is accepted, Chell.

I don't suppose you can do anything to reign in your friends, hm?

[legacydeck]

Accepted, and accepted again. Though the arrival of so many people has caused quite a bit of a stir.

[silentrunning]

[Chell thinks, before writing back.]

They are not all my friends. I have not yet met anyone I know. But I can promise this. If I see anyone insulting anyone I will ask them to please stop doing so.

[When you are in a strange land, it usually works better being polite... As an afterthought, she adds another sentence to her message.]

May I also have your names, good sirs? I assume that one of you is Tweedledum, as I heard that name mentioned but who is the other of you? I would always wish to address people by their proper names, you see.
