paradisa | Vongola XX -- Dictated/Action for Casa de Guts

[Tsuna awakes in his bed with a small start and promptly sits up. He blinks blearily, looking toward the window, lifting an arm to block the light when it hits his eyes.]

Ah... [He blinks then, and looks down at his blanket, recalling what had happened to him for what had seemed to be the past few days. But he was back in his room at the house, and in his pajamas, so...]

What a strange dream. [He then gets out of bed and yawns and stretches, heading to the bathroom to brush his teeth. He opens the door, and...

There's a pair of white rabbit ears popping innocently out of his hair.]

Heehh!? [There's a thud as Tsuna falls over.] Rabbit ears?

[And then he cautiously raises a hand and tugs on one to make sure Reborn wasn't playing a dirty trick on him or something. He can feel a sensation from the tug, and it doesn't come off.]

N-no way! They're real?! --ah, my feet! [And now he's noticing that they're all dirtied, and a little cut and sore, too. The cogs are turning in his head.]

Wait... then...

[He pales a bit.]

All of that actually happened?!

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

If you're referring to that odd world in the mirror, then yes, I'm pretty sure that all happened-

[Hey wait a second!] Rabbit ears? Tsuna, what's happened to you?

Crap! I really need to learn to be more careful with the journal...!

A-ah, that was an interesting place, wasn't it, Jane-san?

Interesting is one word for it.

You aren't getting off the hook for this one, buster! Explain these rabbit ears! You didn't sound like you expected them to be there, so there is obviously something wrong.

Wh-what rabbit ears? I didn't hear anything about rabbit ears! What are you talking about, Jane-san? [tsuna, literally right there on the page]

Why won't you tell me? A lot worse things have happened to folks than - oh, I don't know, randomly sprouting animal ears. [A pause.] Did you randomly sprout animal ears?

N-no! [Yes]

...Riiiight.

[An anxious whimper. WHY, PARADISA. WHY DO YOU HATE HIM AND HAVE TO MAKE HIS LIFE MISERABLE]

Why does my knowing upset you? I'm not going to make fun of you for it! It's not your fault.

W...well... I think half the castle knows by now anyway...

Don't we all end up knowing when something odd happens to someone? Everyone ends up broadcasting things on the journals anyway, accidental or not. Don't be so glum about it!

I guess...

So where were you in that impossible place? I don't think I ever saw you.

I was kind of running all around. I think I spent most of the time in that hedge maze and then at the castle...

I see. I wandered a lot, although I didn't come to anyplace particularly poignant very often. I was at a tea party for a time, though.

A tea party? Oh, yeah... I think I remember something about that.

If you never went to it, don't worry. You didn't miss much.

Ah, is that so...?

It was just utter nonsense piled on top of more utter nonsense. If I ever find myself back there it will be too soon.

Sounds like this castle on a semi-regular basis, really.

But at least there's some sort of logic to the castle! That place seemed to run on nonsenseolium - and I know that isn't a real thing, but I bet it is there!

Well, wasn't this because of the castle in the first place, though?

...You have me there.

[A sigh.] I am not going to bother with any more strange mirrors in the future.

A-ah... yeah, that goes doubly for me.
