Summary: New Year's Eve Party
The Story:

[ Previously in the month all residents received an invitation to a formal event: a black tie affair to ring in the New Year. The ballroom and adjacent areas are decked out for the party starting at eight o'clock sharp, meticulously planned and executed, glittering décor to match the no doubt glittering attire as music pours into the halls from the dance floor.

Bars flank each side, service for all manner of alcohol unless a minor requests something, and the primary setting stage features an enormous clock for the countdown. ]




[ Where will you be when the clock strikes midnight? ]

[Evelyn supposes she should have expected him to want those answers, as insubstantial as they may be with regards to concrete evidence. Sometimes theories are better than nothing, and she has personally found more with less. She blinks at him, takes a healthy sip of her drink, and continues.]

This place...acts as something of a pocket dimension, as I am sure you are aware. It takes people in for indeterminate, seemingly arbitrary amounts of time. A trend in people from the same world will fluctuate on occasion, and some worlds are more popular than others when it comes to their residents being held here involuntarily. There isn't a reasoning behind the selection, and I've been keeping track of it as best I can since I got here. Wonderland returns people at equally arbitrary times, brings them back again afterward or not at all. Sometimes it brings people back and they don't remember their time here.

[Old friends looking through you. The loss of everything there was.]

As best I can tell - theoretically, of course - this place is the actual Wonderland. The one that Lewis Carroll wrote about. Perhaps he was brought here himself, or perhaps he knew a girl named Alice who came and went and told him.

And despite the multitude of universes, everyone seems familiar with the same tale and the same author.

[ at least, everyone he's met. it's curious to say the least.

very curious. ]

[Curiouser and curiouser!]

More or less. There are some universes where the canon is not present - or some residents from time periods prior to Mr. Carroll's.

[It is a sticking point for her, that many of Wonderland's involuntary denizens are unaware of the particular travails of the temporal minority.]

I myself am from 1935, though I have known residents here to be from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
