+ 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 course. You belong there.

[He smiles at her.]

Do you like this place?
255000255000255: (Somber)

Are you kidding? [ She scoffs, unable to help it. ] I hate it.

[ But it's all she's ever known. And, well, it's all she'll ever know. It's not like she was living in the age of holograms and androids where she could be easily lifted from her prison. At most, she'd be lucky to be put on a USB stick or something. Comforting.

Monika's hands ball up. As her head dips, she sniffles, so soft it's almost inaudible. As much as she loved him, she couldn't stand the torture for much longer. ]


I...think it's best that you leave now.

[He lets out a soft breath. Of course it wouldn't be that easy. He reaches over and puts a hand on hers.]

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you.
255000255000255: (Smile through the tears)

[personal profile] 255000255000255 2018-09-14 04:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[ There's a painful ache in her chest. The touch is so warm and soft and everything she's ever wanted. Monika raises her head after wiping at her eyes. ]

It's fine. I'm just realizing I'm being a little selfish.

[ She gently tugs her hand away. ] As much as I love you, it'd be wrong for me to subject you to this place. I'd rather you be out in yours, where I know you'll be happy.

[Souji looks at her quietly for a moment, before nodding and standing up. He'd hug her, but he thinks that might just be painful for her.]

I'll see you again, Monika. I promise.

[Not until the event is over, but possibly that might be comforting. Maybe.]
255000255000255: (Comfortable)

[personal profile] 255000255000255 2018-09-16 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Gosh, you're so sweet. [ Monika clasps her hands, giving a wavering smile. ] And so thoughtful and...

[ He doesn't get much choice on the hug front, because she's leapt up and wrapped her arms around him tightly. If he had to leave, at least she could have this. ]

Don't forget about me, okay? I'll always be here for you, waiting. Just load me up and don't quit the game.
eatsyourscience: (Dig up her bones)

[personal profile] eatsyourscience 2018-09-16 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[He's a little surprised, but returns the hug and kisses the top of her head.]

I won't.

[After a moment, he releases her.]

Don't give up.
255000255000255: (Fond)

[personal profile] 255000255000255 2018-09-16 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[ With a little giggle, she smiles up at him. ] I never give up.

[ Monika returns to her throne, waving after she sits. Somehow, she'll save her tears until after he leaves. She's strong! ]

Bye, darling!
eatsyourscience: (you make me rise when I fall)

[personal profile] eatsyourscience 2018-09-18 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
...See you, Monika.

[He gives her a little wave and a small smile and leaves.]
