+ Your Princess Is in another...Palace +

Who: Everyone!
Where: All over Wonderland
When: Friday, 8/24 - Monday, 8/27
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Palaces! This log is for Palace Rulers to post descriptions of their palaces, and for unaffected characters to wander in and out of them.
The Story:

Palace rulers: These are the characters who experience the bout of lightheadedness and spontaneously manifest a Palace starting at noon on 8/24. As soon as the palace forms, the character is essentially sucked into their Palace and made to play the part of the ruler.

These characters will forget they were ever in Wonderland or indeed had any other life outside of their Palace. If Character A's Palace took the form of her living her dream as a world-famous surfer where the oceans are made of cotton candy, she would always believe she'd been a surfer and that oceans have always been made of cotton candy. Any characters who entered her Palace would merely seem like visitors or intruders to the beach. Maybe they're surf fans, too?

It is possible to "wake" a Person from their Palace if one were to kill them (easy mode... if a bit violent) or make them see it's merely a mental construct (hard mode). If a person were to die inside their Palace, however, it would count as a mansion death. There are no real ways to "unmake" these Palaces other than to snap the person out of it or wait for them to run their course.

Palaces are tied to locations that characters frequent or find special meaning in. They do not outwardly change the appearance of the mansion--the clinic will still look like the clinic on the outside, but crossing inside takes you into the mental landscape of that affected character, and it may look however that player chooses it to.

Unaffected characters: Congratulations, you get to explore other characters’ inner world by visiting their Palaces! There is also a chance of danger should a character enter into a Palace whose ruler is likely to see them as a threat. Should Character A as described above not want a person there, sharks on legs might rise from the ocean and attempt to chase them off. (Sorry about that.)

However, there will always be a way to escape a Palace should you need to. There will always be a door leading back to the normal mansion, though no one else in the Palace will be able to see it aside from the unaffected character. If you entered the clinic and it's a barren hellscape, the clinic door will take you back out. Yay!

It is also possible for characters to see cognitive clones of themselves inside someone else's Palace if that person has a mental image of them. How these cognitive versions behave is, however, entirely up to the Palace ruler, whether realistic or not.

See the Bulletin Board for details on the event. You can also go to the plotting post to see what everyone else is doing!

[Of particular note, the bloody footprints seem to be moving towards the bed, not away from it, so it's unlikely that anybody walked in and murdered whoever was in here. Further exploration might have to wait though because once Josuke's in, a voice calls out from behind the opened door.]

Hey, are you looking for sis? Or the guy that lives here?

[Behind the door is some kid with a bag full of pastries. Now Josuke might be asking himself why the fuck someone would hide in what looks like a crime scene and eat pastries, but that's how things work in Ryoko's head apparently.

...and honestly, not that different from how things work in her actual world, sorry.]

[ With a huff, she turns around in her chair. Maybe she shouldn't have been all cryptic with it, but clearly Mikan doesn't get it. ]

This is my game, and I'm the only one who knows that. How can anyone have a life when they don't really exist?

[Frankly sometimes Stan needs to be checked on. His Palace is pretty tightly controlled, but that doesn't mean he doesn't need a hand snapping out of it.

His subconscious finds them quickly enough, and suddenly all the lights in the boardwalk are on the two of them, and Stan holds up his old timey megaphone.
]

Hey! You over there! You two look like you wanna buy something!
255000255000255: (Nervous)

[personal profile] 255000255000255 2018-08-31 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
[ She shakes her head, laughing weakly and waving a hand. ] You're only just saying that. But, um...as long as it makes you happy!

[ Monika presses her lips together, still looking tense. She didn't expect interest in her so soon! Maybe ten years down the line or so, sure. But right when they'd first met? Gosh. ]

Well. Ahaha! I guess...you're starting, then?

Am I all right?

[She thinks so, but she's not sure so she asks Matsuda, who decides to respond in his usual surly manner.]

No, moving during the procedure turned you into some hideous fly monster. Now buzz off.

[For the record, that didn't happen and Ryoko doesn't appear to be some sort of fly monster.]

That didn't happen! And even if I did, I wouldn't be hideous, I'd be a cute bug!

[...oh wait, there's people in here besides her and Matsuda, aren't there? So she can't argue back and forth with him all day. And while she's pretty sure this girl has nothing to do with her, she'll answer before she forgets.]

Um, I think so, is there some reason I wouldn't be all right?

Okay... I'm an only child. I'm going to be in my third year of high school.

[He shakes his head.]

But that doesn't tell you a lot, does it? What do you want to know?
255000255000255: (Nyeh)

[personal profile] 255000255000255 2018-08-31 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
Ooh~ I think I'm an only child, too! [ She taps her chin thoughtfully. ] At least, I don't remember having any family. Oh, and I'm a third year! Probably...

[ But finally! Back to the good questions! Monika's perked up again, beaming cheerfully. Who cares about vague video game writing at a time like this? ]

Anyway! I'd love to know your interests! What's your favorite color? Do you like reading? What's your favorite kind of music? Tell me what makes you happy!
255000255000255: (Coy)

[personal profile] 255000255000255 2018-08-31 05:06 am (UTC)(link)
Ohh, don't be so humble~ I'll be happy with whatever you come up with!

[ Feeling so much better, she stands and takes off her crown, smoothing down some stray hairs. Wouldn't want those getting into the picture!

Humming to herself, she trots over to her steps and perches on the middle one daintily, crossing her legs. He might see something far too naughty if she sat higher, after all~

Monika simpers, clasping her hands over her knee. This should be the right amount of pretty with the tiniest hint of sexy. Just because she wouldn't want him to see up her skirt doesn't mean he shouldn't get to appreciate her in other ways! ]


Full body, please~ If you want me to change my pose, let me know. And take your time, ahaha!

I killed them. The revenants. All 77 of them. They said it couldn't be done.

[every other heir has failed -- and time and time again people underestimated her and assumed she would fail too. but she didn't. she won for once in her life.]

[personal profile] eatsyourscience 2018-08-31 06:14 am (UTC)(link)
Those are a lot of questions.

[And things he's not totally wanting to answer. He's much more curious about this place, and more than a bit concerned about her, which makes it hard to want to talk about himself.]

I don't have a favorite color, although I like yellow a lot. I enjoy reading.

[And now it's her turn. He glances past her at the cages.]

Do you have a lot of friends?
255000255000255: (Restrained)

[personal profile] 255000255000255 2018-08-31 06:34 am (UTC)(link)
[ Well, so much for finally having a good time. Monika droops, her gaze falling to the desk. When her crown threatens to slip off, she exhales sharply and yanks it off her head, tossing it aside.

It was all so frustrating. It was all so dumb. Why wouldn't things ever go her way? ]


I don't have any friends.

[ Who'd consider automatons with no free will to be friends? It was stupid to think otherwise. ]

Why does it even matter?
eatsyourscience: (now they're building a coffin your size)

[personal profile] eatsyourscience 2018-08-31 06:50 am (UTC)(link)
[Souji's eyes follow the path the crown takes through the air before returning to Monika.]

It matters. Having no one but yourself makes the entire world a gray blur. Every day is the same and it's like you're the only real person in the world.

[It's really no wonder she's so enthusiastic about newcomers.]

What are they?

[He nods past her.]
255000255000255: (Shifty)

[personal profile] 255000255000255 2018-08-31 07:09 am (UTC)(link)
[ Her brow tightens, then she looks back up. Her words keep getting caught in her throat before she can answer. ]

That's...exactly how it is. That's how it's always been.

[ His understanding of her makes her a tad more willing to open up. She's still cagey, though, crossing her arms over her chest. ]

They're characters. But they'll never know that.
eatsyourscience: (anything less than the best is a felony)

[personal profile] eatsyourscience 2018-08-31 08:13 am (UTC)(link)
[Souji nods slowly. This time he keeps his eyes on Monika and doesn't look back at the girls.]

It seems like things turned out badly for them. And for him.

[Now he glances at the student in the corner of the room.]

You must have been lonely up to now.
255000255000255: (Kind)

[personal profile] 255000255000255 2018-08-31 08:51 am (UTC)(link)
[ Monika follows his gaze, frowning, then looks back at him. ] Well, he...was just kind of there. A means to an end, I guess?

[ So fitting for a nameless main character. Haha?

After a hesitation, she uncrosses her arms and nods slowly. ]


Everything lost meaning. I'm...honestly not sure how much longer I could take it. [ A small, hopeful smile forms. ] But you're here now! I don't have to be alone anymore. I can have a world with you.

[what the fuck IS THIS.

Josuke definitely jumps because where the hell did you come from, kid??]


Uh. [He glances between the bed, the kid, the pastries and the bed again.] I'm looking for Ryoko.
bibliocorn: (Sure we can spend more time together)

[personal profile] bibliocorn 2018-08-31 11:56 am (UTC)(link)
That's okay. I have all the time in the world.

[He still isn't sure if it's actually wise to rip people out of their palaces in the first place. It could cause untold psychological harm. No, no. Best take it slow, let them come out of it on their own or let it run its course. ]

Well, do you need some food or something, while you wait?

[Wow. She was just sitting on her cages, right on top of the creepy pink-haired one, without so much as a glance back or a how-do-you-do. And with her pose, so obviously solicitous... Jean made a face of disgust at how awfully the images of her and the dead bodies clashed, but swallowed his distaste for the time being. At least he didn't have to draw what was under the stairs.]

[He sketched wordlessly. Monika might be surprised by the results. She lived in a world of bobbled headed, bubble eyed anime girls, and that may be how she perceived herself, but that wasn't how Jean perceived her. He saw a girl of regular proportions, beautiful, but not with huge glossy eyes and clothes that perfectly fit her too-shapely body. To him, she looked, well, human.]


This really isn't that great. [He muttered as he tried to get the lighting in his hellroom right.] There's a lot of distractions.

Stop saying that! You do exist! Monika... I just... I just want to understand why everything is like this... Why you're smiling when these girls are in so much pain...

[It's a difficult struggle not to break down sobbing, though she is close.]

The Monika I met... she's nice, and kind, and wants to help people! She has a heart that wants to love and be loved!

[She blinks at Matsuda. W-what a rude guy!]

I... well, I didn't recognize the equipment you're attached to.

[Though with her nursing, she has a better guess than most people. Definitely has to be related to her brain.]

... Who's this?

[Gestures at Rude Guy.]

[personal profile] like247 2018-08-31 06:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I mean, yeah. I'm not the kind of person to not be honest about. You sang to me and were really sweet and you know you're pretty, right? I mean, more girls should admit to that.

[Her small group of friends and it's been easy for her to admit that, talk about others and their looks. How people are.]

Monika, like I never even thought that. I'm just... I mean, I don't want that to happen to us, you know? Maybe we should go somewhere else. Safer, like the diner or something.

[Anywhere but where these dead girls are in cages.]

[ For a moment she ponders asking him what kind of ridiculous thing is going on that he'd be looking for those people in this sort of place, but maybe his search is kind of urgent. It could be, for all she knows. And she'd feel too guilty if she was keeping him from doing what he has to do, so.. ]

Do you need me to help you look? [ She's a little more direct about offering help in this case, at least. ]

[Drizella never says no to good whiskey. Initially she just hid in the back of the party, figuring this is event related and she'd just enjoy the booze, but eventually she gets drunk enough that she just has to ask.]

What's the sash mean? Is that a runner up category for Ms. Purgatory?

Freya has never been against Wynonna's appetite for a good time. If anything they likely enabled each other in that respect, as they both liked to hit the bottle likely a bit more than they should. But when Freya walks into Damon's bar and finds a celebration she likely should have been prepared for. Or at least warned about.

She weaves her way through to the bar to find Wynonna, before raising her eyebrows a bit in response to the sash.

"Did I miss an invitation?"

[It's a future, in a way - a future the way Stan sees it. So, perhaps not strictly accurate, but it's how he feels about it. He'd happily punch someone out for Mikan.]

Sure! Knock yourself out - you paid for it!

[If he realizes what the fortune says, he doesn't show it.]
