+ It's good that we can't see what isn't there +

Who: EVERYONE

Rating: PG-13, warn if higher!
Summary: A place to list your tears throughout the event, and describe the worlds that can be seen or accessed through them. Event Post.
The Story:

While invisible zombies ravage Wonderland, tears are popping up everywhere! Through them characters can see versions of themselves from alternate universes. Some of them show a different version of Wonderland, some a different version of their home. Some are as benign as a character drinking coffee instead of tea, others are as drastic as somebody's entire personality changed completely.

On day one tears are so small as to barely even be recognisable. Faint voices and melodies can be heard through the tiny cracks if you step really close, but these brief and indistinct glimpses are barely even worth describing.

On day two tears have opened up wide enough to recognise them for what they really are. Yesterday's melodies will sound clearer, and the voices will become decidedly familiar, belonging to people characters know, sounding perhaps even like the characters themselves. Look through the tears and they may catch sight of home, or something that merely looks like another part of Wonderland. The tears are yet narrow and instable though, and the field of vision is correspondingly poor.

On day three the tears have grown a great deal. The worlds beyond them can be seen and heard, though most cannot be interacted with at all. Only the biggest ones are already stable enough for characters to stick their hand inside, and pulls through any objects within reach.

On the fourth and last day some tears have finally become large and stable enough for characters to pass through whole. Not all tears will reach this stage, but those who have can be visited, and the world beyond them explored... at each character's own peril.

Heh, yeah, that's... that's Wonderland, uhm, f-for you. Bringing things up in new and fun ways.

[It's not funny. It's not even grim humor, or recognized like it. It's just difficult, like most of her life.]

I don't blame you. Really. I d-don't.

I'm still sorry.

[It won't fix any of it. It won't do anything more than serve as an insufficient band-aid, slapped hastily over a wound that hasn't technically been made, and that won't ever heal over.

It's nothing at all but a selfish means for them to feel better about their own sins.

What an idiot.]

[She runs her hands over one another, still sitting in front of the tear. She can hear the other her crying, but trying not to. She knows the sounds of herself too well, when she's too far gone to ask for help.]

I... I know. Thank you, for... apologizing. Even if I can't, uhm, give a proper thanks, I guess.
determinedest: (* It seems your journey is finally over.)

[It's whatever they can do to help. To fix it. To make it better than it was, even if it isn't by much. Even if it doesn't count very much at all, really.

They can't fix things for the Queen crying on the other side of the tear. They can't present themself for absolution, for justice, for atonement, for apology. They can't fix any of what happened. They can only ensure it never happened, and thus never needs fixing.

There's no running from it now.]


She never has to stay like that for long.

[A RESET is always coming. Even if the Alphys with the crown heavy on her spined head doesn't know it.]

CRIES ON THE FLOOR

[personal profile] sciencelizard 2017-05-29 07:04 pm (UTC)(link)
That's... t-that's good for her. I don't remember this, I mean, not here, but... I think all she'd want was for it to be over.

[She doesn't know this moment, but she knows the feeling. Can't die. Too much responsibility. Too many people relying on you for their lives.]

It's not real here, anyway. This'll be gone in... a day or two.

Until then... m-maybe it's best we leave her alone.
determinedest: (* I'll make this simple.)

[personal profile] determinedest 2017-05-29 08:52 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think she can hear us.

[Would it matter, if she could? If they could step through, and see the other side, and talk to her, let her do what she wanted with them - would that fix anything, in the end?

A silent grimace, and they look at the floor.]


You don't have to leave, but -

[But maybe it'd be less painful, if she did.]
sciencelizard: (« [Crestfallen] yep grade-a fucked that)

[personal profile] sciencelizard 2017-05-30 05:43 am (UTC)(link)
I... I'm not sure I should b-be seeing this.

[Not sure she belongs here, in her own memories. Not sure she'd want to be seen. Might be the first bit of self-respect she's shown herself in a long time.]

I don't think I'd want to be seen. Like this.
determinedest: (* It's a HOLE.)

[personal profile] determinedest 2017-05-30 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know how to make them go away.

[It's a somber pronouncement, but the way Elizabeth talked about the tears, fragments of other worlds leaking through, it seemed like there wasn't any banishing them, once they appeared.]

It'll...disappear. Sometime.

[It has to.]
sciencelizard: (« [Abyss] and it stares back)

[personal profile] sciencelizard 2017-05-31 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
It's fine. They'll, uhm. They'll disappear w-when Wonderland wants.

[She hefts herself off the floor, brushing off a bit of dust from her coat.]

It'll a-all be over soon.
determinedest: (* You're our real enemy.)

[personal profile] determinedest 2017-05-31 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah.

[After a moment's hesitation, they offer out a hand. For her to...take, if she wants. They're a bit too late to help her to her feet, but it's something to hold onto. If she needs it.]

It will.

[She sees them move, looks down at their hand for a moment, and accepts, with a light grip. Just... something that's real. That's fine. That's all she needs right now.]

Let's go.
