+ 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!

Seeing his hallucination wrapped around his pornstar self like some kind of weird succubus is a little more unsettling than he would have expected it to be... not that this is anything he could ever have expected. It's possible that's what makes him a little short with the... people? whatever they are? in front of him.

"How about the one outside your head, genius."
choosetruth: (now let 'em hear it loud and clear)

[personal profile] choosetruth 2018-09-30 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
"Oh, you mean the clone," the ghost says. "You can see why we might have been confused."

Shaun shrugs and juts a thumb behind him towards the house. "She's in there."
adaptiveimmunities: (that's ridiculous)

[personal profile] adaptiveimmunities 2018-10-08 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
"No, actually I can't, but whatever." He's past arguing with figments of her imagination. He does that enough with his own. He pushes past them to go into the house. "George? You in here?"

She is. Inside, typing furiously. She looks up with a scowl at the sound of her name.

"Who the fuck are you?"
adaptiveimmunities: (sound about right?)

[personal profile] adaptiveimmunities 2018-10-11 05:11 pm (UTC)(link)
...Not the reaction he'd been expecting. He looks down at himself. Back at her.

"Who the fuck do you think I am, George? You're supposed to be the smart one."
choosetruth: (the kind that turns a lady's head)

[personal profile] choosetruth 2018-10-14 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
She stares at him for a moment, as if trying to place him. Slowly, she responds:

"My brother calls me George."
adaptiveimmunities: (Really?)

[personal profile] adaptiveimmunities 2018-10-22 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
"And see usually I'm the one that gets called a dumbass. I'm your brother." He frowns at her. "Come on. Are you seriously telling me you don't recognize me?"
choosetruth: (georgia13)

[personal profile] choosetruth 2018-10-25 06:47 pm (UTC)(link)
She tilts her head, squinting through her sunglasses. She can see the resemblance. It's just hard for her to get through Wonderland's shit to believe what her eyes are telling her.

"I'm... not sure." She frowns. "If you were Shaun, wouldn't I be sure?"
adaptiveimmunities: (Concerned)

[personal profile] adaptiveimmunities 2018-10-29 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
"Not if it was an event," he points out. Wonderland messes with their perception all the time. "I mean, it hasn't happened before that we haven't known who each other were, but we've been wizards and shit, so who the hell knows, right?"
choosetruth: (yeah nitwit that ain’t news no more!)

[personal profile] choosetruth 2018-11-03 05:24 am (UTC)(link)
He has a point. And even in Georgia's own head, she does try and see herself as logical. Even in Wonderland, which seems to try and resist her attempts to quantify it at every turn. She frowns, puzzling over his words.

"Can you prove it?"
adaptiveimmunities: (in bed)

[personal profile] adaptiveimmunities 2018-12-08 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
the words surprise a smile out of him. "See, the last time one of us said that to the other, it ended up being a pretty good day for me."
choosetruth: (how ‘bout a crooked politician?)

[personal profile] choosetruth 2018-12-09 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
It's him. A lot of people know that they're a couple at this point. That's not a secret anymore. A lot of people know she's dead and now a clone too. But she's pretty sure no one but Shaun knows exactly how she proved to him she was himself. Or that she did.

And now that she's figured it out? She doesn't know how she could ever fail to recognize him.

She tilts her head. To anyone else, her expression would look just as flat and unyielding as anyone else. But this isn't anyone else. This is Shaun. He knows her well enough to catch the way the skin around her glasses relaxes, the slight, almost microscopic lip twitch. She's always been an open book to him, and she only rarely minds.

"All words, no action? Weird, that doesn't seem like my brother to me."

Actually kiss her, you asshole.
adaptiveimmunities: (ratings grab)

[personal profile] adaptiveimmunities 2018-12-15 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
"I don't think anyone's ever accused me of not being a man of action. Are you sure you're my sister?" But he's smiling as he steps around the desk and leans in to kiss her. Slowly.
choosetruth: (this time we're in it to stay)

Georgia rolls her eyes and grabs his shirt, yanking him forward the rest of the way.

"Asshole," she mutters against his lips. She's back.
