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! ♥

[Greg nods, but he looks sad, because Wirt looks sad. Even if he says he's happy.]

I guess I was gone a long time, huh? And I don't even know how I did it.

[He thinks for a second, rolling his eyes upwards.]

I think I just took a nap. But I took lots of naps before. Must've been an extra good one, I guess.

[When Klaus settles completely, the doctor does the same, sinking down at the edge of his cot. He crosses one leg over the other, knees spread apart, maintaining power in his posture even as he projects comfort.]

That's quite the question. I could do with some freedom. Perhaps a bit of revenge on those responsible for the suffering I've endured here. Nothing particularly out of the ordinary.

What?

[Is that biggest surprise of all? Well, perhaps not. Jamie Fraser is, above all, a good man. He's probably not the sort to fool around before marriage.]

Christ. So... I'm going to marry this man, and he's not--he's not even going to know what to do?

[... drunk Claire might think it's a terrible idea, but sober Claire? There are worse things, and he'll at least learn from her.]

"Sounds rough. But you got back, so that's good at least." A beat. "I mean, back home. Not back here. Although also back here, I guess...but clearly not from that planet. I doubt you were getting married in a wasteland?" He tilts his head. "It's Fitz, right?" Like it should just be an assumed fact. Because of course it is. Right?!

"I've been to a couple of them. Earth-2 is the most like mine, with some definite differences. They're a little more technologically advanced, but otherewise, it's kind of creepy similar sometimes." He nods a bit. Harry would be thrilled with that description, he's sure. "Evil dudes keep trying to take over the multiverse, it's kind of a problem." He frowns a little, one hand resting on his hip.

Mirror? I'm afraid that I have no idea what you're talking about! Please explain!

[This basically confirms he's in a new world though, possibly a place that's as weird as Verens. Of course, seeing a younger version of himself probably should've clued him in on that right away...

But at least he can count on himself to give him the right information! He's reliable like that, haha! Ishimaru just has to make sure that he gives his younger self the right information in return. He won't fail!]

"Then... how do I know who you are?" Because everything he'd ever heard about going home and coming back to Wonderland said that there was a very specific time-limit on keeping those memories.

"Oh, uh, yeah." He shrugs it off and finally pushes himself up to his feet, dusting off his suit, which now feels incredibly over-the-top to be dressed in. "Barry and Iris were getting married," He smiles a little, it was about damn time, honestly; the smile fades as he explains the rest, "But there was an attack, I kinda got knocked out." No big deal, obviously.

“A computer program most users didn’t know they were in. For Fitz, he lived a whole other life in the Framework. I’m sure the lynchpin memory, asyou phrase it, would be his father staying with him.” All those formative years, living with Alastair Fitz? Would Jemma have even wanted to be friends with Fitz in the Academy?

“Pull out Alastair Fitz, he should be himself again.” She hopes.

Also, she has to know, “how has no one killed him yet?” Without the entirety of SHIELD at his commend, she’s shocked by one thing, “he says he’s been here for months.”

“Fitz, he figured out how to find me, brought me home.” The relief hearing his voice, the fear of leaving Will behind. Hold on, “Wait, you know Fitz?”

How does someone she doesn’t know know who Fitz is, unless, “He’s been here, hasn’t he? Fitz has been here!”

She wants to ask about the technological differences. She wants to ask what similarities make it creepy, but if Fitz has been here, she can’t think about much else.

[And now she's clinging to him. What did he ever do to deserve--]

Who? [He can't possibly heard her right. No way. Not possible. He can't be an uncle. It's simply not a thing that can happen for any of his siblings.]

Seven years.

[He follows that up quickly with a self-introduction.]

I'm Souji Seta. And I promise I don't want to kill you. Come this way and I'll make you something to eat.

Right. That was probably not the name to roll out of his mouth at her, without having any clue whatsoever if he's here, still. People move in and out of Wonderland so much, it can be hard to keep up with even when you are living there. Having been away for a still undetermined amount of time...he has no idea who is and isn't here anymore.

"Uh-- yeah. Yeah, he was here the last time I was. We were friends-- it's how I knew you." All the other things can wait, there will be plenty of time, or if there isn't, they won't be here long enough to be concerned about it later. Either way-- it could wait. "I have no idea if he's still here or not, though, just...f-y-i. It's been awhile since I've been here, so..." He isn't trying to crash her hopes, here, he just kind of wants to keep them a little grounded in reality.

[personal profile] hypoxic 2018-12-23 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
It's something else that she shouldn't know. Is that what the witch was pulling out of him? Are these the secrets she's taken?

"This is not the end. Hydra will rise again."

He laughs, shaking his head. "No, nothing like that, and not a zombie. He's a doctor that's been helping us to try and find a cure," he admits, offering a tight smile. "Then, no. I don't know this R. I don't know many zombies. Two in fact. The one that made me, and the one working with Ravi."

Liv. Already he acutely misses her.

"I'm Lowell, and we're maybe kind of at the beginning of it all? We don't know. Best I can tell it started at a party due to bad drugs and worse energy drinks." Least that's what he's been told. "If better so long as you have the twenty five grand a month for brains," he says. "My trust fund is nearly toast." Not to mention learning where they came from.

[She recognizes the voice instantly, her mouth breaking into a grin. Finally, someone she knows.

She's not alone.]


Freya!

[That clinches it. She disappeared, like so many others.]

How long was I gone?

[personal profile] persevere 2018-12-23 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
[Her mouth forces itself up into a smile, though it's half-hearted. Clearly, this girl has been here long enough to know how horrible Wonderland can be.

Not that it takes that long.]


Probably a little of both. At least I know how the whole thing works. It could be worse.

[Christmas, though. Has she really been gone that long?]

Caroline Forbes. It's probably just Wonderland up to it's old tricks again. Has there been a big influx of people recently? That's happened before.

[personal profile] persevere 2018-12-23 05:11 am (UTC)(link)
[Luckily, Caroline is very quick on the uptake, and she doesn't actually trip over the poor pony.

Who is talking.

At least she's used to Rocket, or this would be a lot weirder.]


Sorry! You okay?
persevere: (tvd501--0649)

[personal profile] persevere 2018-12-23 05:12 am (UTC)(link)
Rocket!

[Her mouth spreads into a warm smile. The small angry alien would be impossible to forget, she's pretty sure, Wonderland magic or no.]

Nope, definitely not evil. Miss me?

( Clementine looks curious at the answer. It doesn't surprise her he'd have people he needs to get back to. They all made a family, a group here together after all. It'd make sense he'd have another one in the place he was just from. )

I wish I could say I knew what was happening. There's not usually this many people all at once.

( And so part of her doesn't trust it to last. She feels she ought to be more defensive, ought to prepare herself for it. )

Maybe you will get to go back to your people.

[personal profile] waitin 2018-12-23 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
( Clementine's arms drop as soon as he speaks, because she knows then it's the very same Jay that she remembers. She nods, looking relieved, grateful. Her eyes burn, and she erases the distance between the two of them. )

Yeah.

( It's confirmed quiet but certain. )

It's me too. It's the me from here who watched bad movies with you and Tim.

( And everything else they went through. This hardly encapsulates it. She smiles even through that emotion, because it's so fucking good to see him again. ) I wasn't- I wasn't sure if you'd remember me.

People come through to here regularly?

[That seems to be the default way of things - in the archipelago, people emerge the same time, roughly, each month. Different amounts, but it's always a varying and unbroken spill, regular as things can be on a deserted island.]

[It seems to be the case with most places like these, he's learning.]

I dunno. I don't play games that often either.

[personal profile] shslliar 2018-12-23 07:26 am (UTC)(link)
Oh come on! You've been saying all this weird cryptic stuff since we met, there's gotta be a reason behind it!

[personal profile] gonerkid 2018-12-23 07:58 am (UTC)(link)
[There's a reason, certainly. The reason is there but they simply cannot access it, do not know how to access it. Their free hand creeps up to the center of their chest, resting over the green cloth of their shirt.]

[The place where a human SOUL would be kept.]

[A flicker of something tears across their expressionless face, vivid and pained. Like so many other things about them, it is as transient as it is brutal in its intensity.]

[And then, of course, it's gone.]


Can't say.

[Alex's fist knocks into his jaw, and]

[]

[Alex's fist knocks into his gut, and there's]

[Fuck.]

[He can't see straight, but the adrenaline's hit his veins, and he kicks out wildly, just trying to get him off off GET OFF]

[1D20 => 6]

[The kick barely connects, so he grabs for whatever flesh he can reach, digging his stubby nails in, trying to wrench him off any way he can.]

[1D20 => 5]

[It hurts in a distant sense, like he's experiencing it two inches to the left of himself. A throbbing in his hands, where tiny red crescents tear into his skin, a pounding in his head. The after-ache of bruising roaring down the parts of him where Jay manages to reach.]

[If they slow him down, he doesn't feel it. Nothing hurts in comparison to the pain he knows to be absolute.]

[It'll all be over.]

[He slams his fist into Jay's jaw.]
