First tooth mark

[Sunny blinks as she steps into the darkened tent, momentarily disoriented as her eyes adjust. However, when she's able to see again she's quite surprised at what she sees. Instead of a gypsy tent, as she had been expecting, she seems to be in a large room in what appears to be a castle. But that simply doesn't make any sense at all. It must be some trick of the light or illusion or something. She turns around to brush the tent flap aside and go back outside and finds that there was no longer a tent flap to brush. All there's behind her is an open door leading out to a very snowy courtyard.

She pushes some of the hair out of her face, trying to get a better look around her - this false beard is becoming increasingly inconvenient. At a complete loss she sighs]

[Which, of course, means "I must admit I don't have the faintest idea what's going on." Sunny pauses, looking around. In her confusion she had forgotten that she was in disguise as Chabo the Wolf Baby, a fearsome child who only speaks in growls. She clears her throat and adds a soft]

Grr...

((OOC: Open for journal or in the lobby!))

[She knows that baby talk. She knows that voice. Surely her heart has stopped. Swallowing, Violet picks her journal up.]

Sunny? Where are you? I'm coming for you.

[The growl catches her off guard.]

Were you just at the carnival?

[Sunny turns around, looking for her sister. She had been right in front of her a second ago, where did she go?

None of this is making any sense at all]

Marceau. [Which translates roughly to, "I thought I was still at the carnival. I'm not sure where I am, now."]

I have a shop in the town I'll bring some clothes.

[She's already out of the building, a small shirt and shorts in hand. She may need to wish up a coat for her sister.]

You're in a castle, Sunny. It's called Paradisa. But I'll be right there.

Paradisa? [Sunny repeated. She meant, of course, "Paradisa? But what happened to the carnival? How did I get here? And since when do you have a shop?"]

I will explain it all. Just give me a few minutes. [She's already running up to the castle.]

Chairry ["Okay. I'll sit on the couch and wait for you."]

[She runs into the lobby, searching for her sister.]

Sunny?!

[A beard with legs hops down off of one of the couch and waves. She opens her mouth to try to call Violet's name... but nothing comes out.

What.

Shaking her head she frowns.]

Marco. [Or, rather, "I'm over here."]

[She finds her baby sister, still so small. She remembers their disguises for the carnival and smiles.]

Would you prefer to be a person again, Chabo?

[Sunny nods, walking over to her big sister. She idly thinks that Violet looks older, somehow. But how is that possible? She just saw her a moment ago.]

Jomerrick [which of course means "yes, please. I don't like being a freak."]

[She's much older than you think, Sunny. Violet picks up her sister and heads to one of the restrooms to give them more privacy.]

You're in a castle, Sunny. It's not home, and it's magic. I've been here almost two years.

[Wheee! Oh yay not having to walk! She may be very proud of the fact that she can walk on her own but it's very tiring trying to keep up with everyone else. Besides, age can see a lot more of her surroundings from this height. She wraps her arms around her sister and holds on as she looks around curiously.]

Sneklash? [which obviously means "two years? But I was just with you, how is that possible?"]

[Once in the restroom, she sets little Sunny on the counter and pulls the beard off of her.]

People are taken from different points in time here. You're from before me. Lemony Snicket is here, too. But I believe he's from after me. We were on an island last time I saw you.

[She pops on the shirt and helps Sunny step into the shorts.]

I'll see about finding you some dresses.

[Sunny was grateful to let her sister redress her in clean proper clothes. She made a disdainful face at the beard, scratching her itchy face and shooting her sister a confused look.]

Citrus. ["Lemony? I don't know who that is. Is he a friend? And what were you doing on an island?"]

Lemony is a volunteer. He's a Snicket. [Like Jacques.]

It is a long story, Sunny. But things do not seem to get easier for us. You are safe here though. Even if you once said 'the last safe place is safe no more'.

VFD? ["A volunteer? Like the Volunteer Fire Department?"

Wait, what? Sunny gives Violet an even more quizzical look.]

Nodit ["But I haven't said that. What are you talking about?"]

He's Jacques' brother. As well as Kit's, but I suppose you've not met Kit, yet.

[She takes a slow breath.]

Sometimes this happens here, Sunny. People come from different times. You didn't say that, yet. But one day you will, and it will be a very sad day.

[She shakes her head, not knowing who this Kit person is.

But... different times? That doesn't make any sense at all. What are you talking about, Violet? You're confusing your little sister!]

Temporal. [Which translates to, "But how can we be from different times? That doesn't make any sense. How do you know what I'm going to say?"]

[She strightens the clothes on Sunny and pulls her into a hug. It's good to have her here.]

The Castle just takes people at different times.

[She gladly hugs her sister back, happy that she's not alone in this crazy place... Even if she doesn't understand it.]

Docwho. [or, rather, "we're from different times? How did we get here?"]

No one knows. They say the Castle did it. It brought us here, and it takes things from us. [But the Castle only managed to give her something this day.]

[She frowns slightly as she tries to absorb all this information. It really is a lot to take in even for a very clever 2 year old like her.]

Larceny? [which of course means "It takes things from us? What kinds of things? Why does it take them?"]

It takes things important to us. It took my ribbon. For some people, it takes memories.

[The mention of something important makes Sunny realize one very important thing that she hadn't asked yet. She WANTS to say "Klaus" which, of course, would mean "Is Klaus here, too?" Unfortunately, however, when she opens her mouth to say his name no sound escapes her lips.

She frowns and tries again. Nothing.

Frowning even further she sighs]

Frere? ["Is our brother here?"]

No, Klaus isn't. [Violet bundles her little sister in her count.]

I'm going to take you to my apartment, Sunny. You have a room in the Castle, but it isn't safe. I have a shop and a small apartment in the town. It's not much, but it can be home here.
