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! ♥

Maker,
[ Cullen mumbles quietly, the sight an ache in his heart. Garrett did so well before, but old habits are persistent companions. He just wishes he'd been there to help ward them off.
He takes the bottle from Garrett's hand and sits down by his side. Strokes his back calmly. ]
Rough day?
no subject
I don't - I don't want this dream anymore. Hurts too much.
no subject
I'm here. I'm back.
[ He squeezes Garrett's hand firmly. Places a kiss on it afterwards. ]
It... took a little longer this time.
no subject
... Cullen?
[His eyes drop to their joined hands, to the very real warmth of Cullen's lips against his skin.
Shame fills his gut as he puts the pieces together, as he realises what state Cullen's returned to find him in.]
You can't be. It doesn't make sense.
[But that's not going to stop him from pulling Cullen down into a kiss - one that unfortunately tastes of stale alcohol and every possible sign that he's been taking barely the absolute minimum care of himself.]
no subject
Later.
After he leans down into the kiss, and pulls Garrett closer. Tastes his warmth before anything else, always a comfort to make him forget worlds around him, if only for a few precious moments.
And when they pass he tastes the stale liquor instead. ]
Hey,
[ Cullen mumbles against his lips before he slowly pulls away. ]
Why don't we get you cleaned up. Do something about the room. Then you can tell me everything I missed.
[ Another kiss, briefer this time. ]
We've got some lost time to make up for after.
no subject
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.]
no subject
We do. Just a few minutes of work.
[ Half the floor littered with a history of relapses, the other with opportunities to keep going just as easily. It could wait a while longer. It shouldn't. ]
You'll like the results, I promise.
[ He runs his thumb along Garrett's chin, through a beard more unkempt than he left it. ]
Perhaps a nice shave later?
[ That Cullen only mumbles quietly, almost to himself. There are more enticing rewards he could offer, he knows, but Maker, he missed the small things. ]
no subject
All of it can be later. It's been months, and I never thought...
[He trails off, because Cullen knows how that sentence ends. It had been one of their worst fears, sometimes left unsaid, sometimes whispered in the dark of the night when they couldn't sleep.]
I don't want to waste time on something so unimportant.
no subject
Cullen leans in for another kiss. At the last moment he stops.
There it is.
He pulls back, a slight frown creasing his brow. ]
Taking care of yourself is not unimportant. [ He kisses Garrett's forehead, briefly. ] Tell me you know that.
[ Tell him you'll remember that if he is forced to leave again. ]
no subject
The reality of it hurts more than considering it ever could.
Garrett frowns at the lack of another kiss, eyes flicking up to the creased brow.]
I am taking care of myself. [A sigh.] I just... I'm allowed to grieve, aren't I?
[You are but you're not, buddy.]
no subject
Some time has passed at home, and neither of us is dead, despite Thedas' best efforts.
[ ...And yet they live countries apart. Was there even as much as a letter between them in the last months? No matter the sound of it, Garrett is right. Everything they have here dies outside of Wonderland.
Cullen pulls Garrett into another kiss. He takes his time before he breaks it. ]
When you wake up tomorrow I'll be by your side again, and these- [ He shoots the bottles a glance. ] -will all be gone.
[ With that he steps away to make it so, and picks up the first bottle on the floor. ]
no subject
You expect me to sleep when you're here? [When you're back.] How could I?
no subject
Not for a long while. I still have plans for you.
[ He lets the first bottle drop into a bin. Wonderland should make it disappear soon, shouldn't it? Just a matter of getting it in one place, and not adding to it again. He picks up a few more. ]
The faster this gets sorted, the faster I can show you what they are.
[ And who said he was above cheap bribes? ]
no subject
...Okay, he is. He raises an eyebrow.]
Plans, huh?
[He's intrigued. But not enough to start helping.]
That's delightfully vague, especially considering what we could be doing instead of cleaning.
no subject
[ Two more bottles dumped by Cullen - one by Dog, who has caught on to the mission at hand. Cullen scratches his pup's head, pleased. ]
See? Good boy. Show Garrett how it's done.
no subject
Really, Dog? Really?
[But he finally breaks and starts cleaning up the mess. Occasionally he glances at Cullen, as if to make sure he's real, before he finally asks.]
... You're disappointed, aren't you.
