Here we are as in olden days, happy golden days of yore | OPEN

Who: E V E R Y O N E (Including our 4th wall guests!)
Where: Everywhere, one both Mirror and Real Side!
When: December 12th - December 18th (WEEK ONE)
Rating: PG-13, warn if going higher
Summary: This year's Ewaymas celebration rolls out the way it usually does, with intense decorating, a sudden snowfall and...far more arrivals than usual! New faces and old fill the mansion - but why would Wonderland bring so many people at once? And why do some of them remember Wonderland?
The Story:


On the evening before December 12th, the captives of Wonderland might be awoken by a loud commotion. Some of it is typical Ewaymas noise, likely familiar to anyone who has been in Wonderland for more than a year – construction sounds and jingle bells as Wonderland decks its own halls quite literally. Garland and lights race down the walls and down the stairs, and stockings appear on the walls for each and every person in Wonderland, embroidered with their names. There are decorative candles everywhere, and all sorts of decorations for every conceivable winter holiday, even if it does not align perfectly to the dates of Ewaymas. Time isn't real, so there will be menorahs and dreidels and Star of Davids even though Hanukkah ended two days prior. And of course, in the front hall, growing straight out of the floor, is a large decorated tree full of ornaments for everyone. And as always, it will have snowed heavily overnight, bringing all of the snow Wonderland will have between now and spring.

There is a second source of commotion in the night though – the sound of a crowd.

Over the course of the night, dozens of new arrivals will appear in Wonderland. Some for the first time. Some wondering how they managed to return with their memories. Others stumbling in with no recollection of ever having been here. Some might be friends from other timelines, other possibilities, and some might even be doubles of people who are already in Wonderland. It's strange for Wonderland to drag so many people into the mansion at once, but everything seems to indicate that they are supposed to be there. They have their own network devices and even have their own stockings on the wall and their own ornaments on the tree – by all accounts, it seems Wonderland expects that they'll be staying, and is treating them like any other new arrivals. Please, make them feel at home and help them settle in nicely.

The first few days will be for catching up with old friends and enjoying the decorations and settling into Wonderland. However, within a couple of days the decorations will start to glitch, much the way corrupted computer graphics might. Lights might change abruptly from multi-color to blue or white, entire décor styles will abruptly change, candle flames will flicker on and off like broken fluorescent lights, and any singing decorations might loop on a beat or two over and over putting you into an eternal hell. Wonderland doesn't seem to be able to stick to one motif, and it can't stop changing. These glitches are occurring on both the Real Side of Wonderland and the Mirror Side.

By the 15th, these glitches will include entire rooms changing into different holiday scenes. These scenes will all be of characters at various winter holidays in the past, the present (in their world), or a possible future. At this point in the event, characters will still be able to navigate the basic mansion and be able to exit these moments easily. These scenes cannot be interacted with – Wonderland seems to consider them another form of decorating. Unlike previous events of this type, these scenes will not loop at first. They will play once, and then Wonderland will glitch and correct itself to be the room it is supposed to be. The scene might play again, but it will be in a different location if it does.

By this point, Wonderland is having an increasingly difficult time holding itself together in a way that makes geographical sense. You might exit one room, even a room that was not previously playing a scene, and find yourself in the kitchen or on the roof instead of in the hallway. You might open a door that you were sure led to your room only to see a ten foot drop to the grounds outside.

This is the mingle log for WEEK ONE! For more information on this part of the event or any questions, please head over to the plot post, or check out our Fourth Wall Master Post for your other Fourth Wall event needs! Prose or [action brackets] are welcome. Please clearly indicate whether your character is on the Real Side or Mirror Side in your top levels. And of course, have fun! ♥

[Definitely different words.]

Didn't see that in the police report.

[Had Kara been explained that, however? Something for Hank to introduce her too, then.]

I can't say what situation you were in so I can't fucking judge...but in the world I'm from, you didn't.
shslliar: (What did you just say you punk)

[personal profile] shslliar 2018-12-17 07:27 am (UTC)(link)
[Um. Yikes? He knows people with red eyes but that was kind of creepy?]

... Ooookay, I'm gonna take that as a "no."

[He continues the irritated facade, tugging on Kris' arm and leading them closer to the mansion.] Seriously, though. You're like the world's biggest doormat right now. I mean, what don't your choices matter to? Your friends? Wonderland? The multiverse?

Hey I can always wave my badge around and make people panic a bit before they realize.

[Lighten the mood with terrible jokes?> Don't mind if Hank does!]

I got dragged by his evil clone when he invaded the Cyberlife tower, so if I was a bad guy, I'm doing a fucking terrible job. [Which is why he asked her; he needed to know what she remembered before he could share what had happened properly.] And hey good for him. I got to watch that in the comfort of my own home with a cold draft.

And uh...don't get in trouble.

[Wow Hank. So helpful.]

Do you still have your gun with you?
shslliar: (Orly?)

More like you're pretty much immortal right now.

[ She's trying to get used to this stuff, she really is. But hearing about something "she'd" done? And done differently?

Her LED would be flashing red right now if it were still in. ]


Maybe he...maybe I...

[ It's hard to even imagine what might've happened differently. It might be best to stop trying.

Kara looks up at him. ]


I don't want to have to do it again.

[ Not unless she has to. ]

[She'd been hoping that her sister might come back, with so many other familiar faces and random guests showing up. Even if it hasn't been that long since she saw her, their relationship in Wonderland and their relationship at home are two incredibly different things.]

Zelena? Oh thank god.

[She pulls her sister into a hug.]

[Regina would recognise that suit anywhere. Anywhere. Well, that and the lanky frame it's draped over. Her heart skips a beat and all she can do is watch for a moment.]

Once-ler? Once-ler!

[She can't believe it; she never thought she'd see him again, but it didn't stop her from tending to his plants in the greenhouse. Not in the hopes that he would come back to see them, but so the memory of what he did would live on.]
freckilled: (huh?)

[personal profile] freckilled 2018-12-17 10:40 am (UTC)(link)
Marco jolts when Jean falls against him, and the action is so achingly familiar, so sweet and tinged with nostalgia--how often had that happened during training? how many times had they collided in midair, or fallen against each other during hand-to-hand training?--that it clears his head a little. Jean is here, and he's okay, breathing and talking and looking normal, and Marco chokes back a sob.

"They... they didn't get you." Come here, Jean, Marco is hauling you in for a hug, and if he clings a little like a drowning man, so be it. "You're safe. You're okay."
madehervows: (pic#7042540)

A - if this isn't cool, no worries!

[It's not the voice that gives him away - after all, the similarities are there, but the Facilier she knows and the one that's shown up in Wonderland are two different people. But that outfit? Is a dead giveaway and for a moment, when she sees it coming towards her, for a brief, impossible moment she thinks Wonderland has given her a gift.

It still has, in a way, but it's one she doesn't know what to do with.

So, she smiles, brittle at the edges.]


Welcome to Wonderland. [A beat.] Dr. Facilier.

[Kissing Cullen feels like coming home and for the first time since Wonderland sent him away, Garrett feels okay. Part of him knows Cullen will likely be disappointed that he broke, that he's returned to alcohol to deal with the pain of him leaving - of so many people leaving - but he doesn't care. He's back, he's here and it's real.]

We can make up for it right now. We don't need to do anything else.

[He pulls him in for another kiss, hungry and eager.]
entreats: (she'll find someone to need her)

[personal profile] entreats 2018-12-17 01:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Point taken.

[ She doesn't seem to mention anything about him seeming slightly startled though - either that, or she just doesn't notice it. ]

At least it doesn't really seem malicious.
postictal: (equivalent of like 5 dicaprio memes)

[personal profile] postictal 2018-12-17 02:36 pm (UTC)(link)
If I walked away right now, and never came back, what would you do?

[Is that his question? Is he playing a hypothetical? Is it a threat?]

[He doesn't say. He doesn't take the bait, and doesn't pursue the conversation. He just moves right on to his own question, and he watches Jay with a weary, unblinking stare.]
rosswood: (it's so david lynchian)

[personal profile] rosswood 2018-12-17 02:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Liar.

[Because it's plain easier to deny it. It's easier to spit the word out and say that he's just trying to get a parting shot in, than it is to consider - what if it's true. It doesn't matter. He washed his hands of this. He washed his hands of all of it.]

You don't get to talk about her like you have any idea.

[Again, they follow as though they have no choice in it. And they don't, do they?]

...

[They don't know what some of those words mean. Wonderland. Multiverse. They don't ask, of course. They run into strange concepts, and they're inevitably explained to them.]

Nobody.

Yes.

[personal profile] preconstruction 2018-12-17 04:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[ so helpful ]

No, I do not. I would not harm anyone needlessly, anyway.

[ he sounds offended that hank would imply otherwise?? ]
mollymocked: (⚔ like a zombie in a maze)

[personal profile] mollymocked 2018-12-17 04:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[Molly preens, as proud as the peacock tattoo spreading its plumage across his neck and cheek.] Thank you. I put it all together myself.

[And all for the sake of his mirror, to boot. He wants to be eye-catching, but it's camouflage for hiding in plain sight, and it looks good on him.]

That's fair. [Molly grins back, pointed canines showing, but it's such a stupid, cheeky grin, it can't even be viewed as a threat display.] I feel like telling the future to another fortune teller is asking for trouble, but if you don't mind a fly on the wall, I'd like to see your technique. Or we could compare stories about gullible marks.

[Because Molly knows a con man when he sees one. You can't con a con, and you can't hide from one either. He doesn't use his cards quite in that way- setting people on wrong paths is bad business- but he still bullshits the fortunes on occasion just to tell people what he sees or what he thinks they want to hear. All he's really doing right now is conversationally calling him out and inviting... well not honesty- fuck that- but at least a measure of transparency.]

End this thread, start a new one?

[personal profile] fuckingpassw0rd 2018-12-17 05:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[It is an interesting reaction. Hank hadn't been even sure if this machine had a gun at all, considering it was technically breaking laws, but fuck with all the shit Cyberlife had pulled, he honestly shouldn't be surprised at all.]

Yeah...guess you wouldn't. Sorry. There's just...

[The very same androids you took down. How deep did the Cyberlife program go? Hank didn't know. He sucked with computers.]

...Maybe we can talk again later?

[Maybe it was over in his world, but Hank wasn't just about to toss this Connor aside either.]
eatsyourscience: (hook up your seatbelt)

Sounds good to me!

[Souji was definitely there, and as Yousuke had predicted, he was cooking. Compared to the rest of the diner, with the patrons and singing decorations, the kitchen area was pretty quiet, everything else fading to a murmur.

Souji didn't look up immediately when Yousuke came in, though he did hear him. He expected it to be one of the several people who were helping him out keeping the diner running.]

[personal profile] dejavoodoo 2018-12-17 05:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[Misty doesn't move much further from the doorway, not yet. Just watching him, knowing that look. She's seen that expression before. Hell, she has it from time to time.]

I'm Misty, and I'm sorry you've been through that. It's a reason I can see others wanting to be here. It does offer more than many have had.

You ever had jambalaya? I can't recommend it enough if you like seafood.
twirlier: (Witchcraft)

[personal profile] twirlier 2018-12-17 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
No, not many at all. So much they don't understand.

[She says it with a chuckle, finding all of this delightful and excited for the changes to the mansion and the seasons, even if she's uncertain about it all. Winter. Indoors. All of it is odd to her.

Though that comment sobers her a bit, head canting.]


You've... you were dealing with that before now as well? Being dead? I'm sorry then. It's not something I would wish on anyone.

[Hah. Practical, if ineffective. It pulls a smile from Ford --

--a smile that evaporates when Stan goes on. Ford's eyes widen in immediate concern. Everything else has just taken a backseat.
]

Oh. Oh, no. Stanley, if you're serious, then the longer you stay here, the more dangerous this place becomes! We have to get you out of here. You and the kids. There has to be a way out of this dimension, and we're going to find it.

[He puts a hand on his hip, shifting his weight.]

Personal requests are my specialty.

[Provided it's something he knows how to make.]

What make I get for you?

Cisco has noticed the weird, almost program-glitch like....thing that keeps happening and. He can't say it bodes well, even if he doesn't completely understand it yet. That's just sort of the way Wonderland is.

He's standing in the same room with her, hands on his hips.

"It's pretty standard levels of weird for Wonderland, although...I can't say that I get the point of it." A shrug as he moves one hand up easily into the Vulcan salute. A fellow nerd extension of peace, and hoping it helps in the event his existence in the room is a surprise. "You been here long?" He asks curiously.
