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! ♥

[ She'd breathed the words out in vaguely amused disgust, giving him a look to match. What kind of freak enjoyed blood? You know, aside from her, and maybe other vampires.
Then it hits her. Her face goes blank.
Her eyes travel down to her glass and then over to him. Oh. Oh. ]
Holy shit!
[ Then, nearly as quickly, she looks annoyed. ]
You can drink booze, too? For fuck's sake!
[ This was getting to be a very annoying pattern here!! ]
no subject
no subject
Yeah. Apparently, I get to be the shitty kind of vampire, that can't eat or fuckin' drink normal stuff.
[ She throws a hand up, just as dramatically as her little speech was. Who can blame her, though? Every vampire she's met so far in Wonderland has been infinitely cooler than her. ]
Whatever. I'm gettin' used to it. Sometimes your life is just doomed to be shit, even when you're dead.
[ And at that, she lifts her glass and drinks a swig as if it's actually liquor. Such words of wisdom from the baby vamp. ]
no subject
his eyes narrow some at the last: clearly she doesn't have great feelings about her transition. )
I wouldn't say that, ( he counters, after she's swallowed. ) You're immortal, I presume. Faster, stronger, fearless. A much better deal than growing old.
no subject
You remind me of my friend Kol. He says stuff like that all the time.
[ Jessica says it fondly, and it's easy to tell the two have had a close relationship, in more ways than one. ]
But, um. Yeah. [ Her head dips as she laughs bashfully. ] It can be pretty cool sometimes, I guess.
no subject
no subject
And then her face lights up like all the Christmas lights gracing the mansion. ]
You're a Mikaelson?!
[ That may have been at a frequency that's too high for even vampire ears. It's a wonder all the glass around them hasn't shattered. ]
Oh. My. God. No wonder you're so hot!
i'm dying
klaus looks to the side, mouth open in a momentary gawp as he searches for words through his subtle amusement. ) Well, I suppose I'm flattered.
SORRY NOT SORRY
[ Can you tell she has good feelings about the family? You know, even if Kol choke slammed her once and Freya gave her a major witchy brain zap. ]
It's weird, though. I don't remember either of 'em mentionin' you. [ Gasp! ] Are you the black sheep?
[ She suddenly looks sympathetic, giving him a light touch on his shoulder in that concerned Southern way. ] It's okay with me, I promise.
[ Because, seriously. Look at him. ]
ME EITHER
that neither of them have mentioned him is less pleasing and somewhat troubling; his smile fades, and his eyes tick to hers, much less amused, at the "black sheep" question.
he is the bastard.
klaus looks away, agitated despite her sympathy or perhaps because of its presumption; most likely both. not even he is quite sure what, but he doesn't particularly feel like answering her. )
no subject
...Okay, it gets her into trouble a lot. But she's really trying to get better at it. ]
Really. I promise it's okay. I--I know what it feels like not to belong in your own family. Hell, even my Maker fuckin' hates me, and he's about the only "family" I got left.
[ After a soft sigh, she looks off in a different direction. ] Sorry if I made you feel bad.
no subject
klaus' dark mood relents and his shoulders relax: he turns his head to gaze her way.
and sighs. and rolls his eyes, just so, placing his hand on the chair-back of her stool.
klaus lifts his glass an inch of the table. ) Don't worry about it. I'm certain Freya and Kol have had plenty other of interesting topics to discuss. ( he tips his glass in a nudging cheers. ) To unappreciative family? ( he's never been one to let an opportunity slide, and bonding with an impressionable young vampire seems perfectly opportunistic, and wise. )
no subject
Mostly, though? She felt like she belonged with them. She wouldn't want to lose that.
She raises her glass a bit. ]
To shitty families.
[ She takes a drink, finishing off her blood. For once, it actually tastes decent. ]
Honestly? It's hard to get anything about y'all out of 'em. But, I mean...I guess I get it? You all've been livin' for so long, I can't even imagine the secrets that've built up.
[ So, maybe...tell her some secrets. ]
no subject
astute observation. they do have many secrets, many stories, even a few they've no doubt forgotten. ) I'm an open book, ( he claims. he invites, opening his arms in illustration, with a smile to match.
protip: he's not.
he points a finger at her in gesture. ) Though I think it'd only be fair if we'd trade one for another.
no subject
Jessica sits up a little straighter, suddenly feeling a little more important, a little more interesting. She's not going to overthink it, especially when it makes her feel cool. ]
Um, okay? [ She shrugs a shoulder. ] Whatever you wanna know. I'm open for business, too.
[ Because this has never gone badly for her before. ]
no subject
no subject
Well, she did say she'd be open... ]
I got kidnapped. Didn't really have much of a choice. [ Her chin thunks onto one of her hands. If there was anything she would forever be wavering on, it was the manner of how she got turned. ] My Maker needed to make. I was that lucky girl.
[ Still, she doesn't look too bothered. She knew why he'd done it. She liked Sookie. She was one of the few people she had in her undead life that gave a fuck about her, even after how she'd treated her.
She thinks on how dismissive she'd been when they last saw each other. God, she was an idiot sometimes. ]
But, like, if you want the specifics? I dunno. He drank my blood, I drank his, woke up the next night buried under a pile of dirt. Nothin' special, I guess.
no subject
no subject
He wanted to save his girlfriend. A human. [ She hesitates for a second or two, considering her own experiences with Hoyt. ] He's a dick, but I can't fault him any for that.
So. [ She turns to face him a bit, pushing the negative thoughts away. ] My turn, right? Umm.
[ There's a thoughtful silence. Her mind keeps circling back to the topic at hand, no matter what. ]
...You ever made a vampire? Er. Sire? Sired? Is that your word for it?
no subject
he watches her, quietly interested in the tick of emotions transforming her face, and waits patiently, curiously for her question.
a fair one. klaus sucks in a breath and answers as he promised. honestly. there's little harm in that, revealing secrets that are centuries old. ) Yes, I have. ( he thinks of lucien, his blood and tears, his mutilated body, his hatred. ) The first I made by mistake, in an attempt to save his life. ( his voice is flat, considering how lucien repaid him quite recently. ) I loved him as a friend, and he considered what I'd done for him a gift.
no subject
[ Now she's wondering why she's never asked Kol about this subject. Oh, right. Because he won't tell her, probably.
Klaus is even cooler now. ]
How was it for you? Did you feel like a new daddy?
no subject
he wouldn't call it "awesome" but the sentiment remains appreciated, though he makes quite the face at the supposition it made him feel anything like a father. his eyes close and his brows lift; he huffs out a laugh that is equal parts amusement and equal parts incredulity. ) No, I did not. It felt like a revelation, and Lucien became a closer companion.
( until mikael found them. )
How did you meet my brother?
no subject
[ Jessica makes a thoughtful noise, glancing away for a bit. She'd have assumed otherwise. The idea of being a Maker scared her for that very reason, whenever she took the time to think about it. Being a teen mom would be terrifying.
Her head shakes slightly when she realizes another question's come her way. She'd started imagining vampires in diapers. ]
Kol? I helped him when he first got here. [ She stifles a laugh. ] He looked like shit. Then again, he did say he'd just died and all...
We've, uh. [ She clears her throat. The two of them were the picture of complicated. ] We're friends, pretty much.
no subject
not to mention he doubts kol will welcome him with open arms.
klaus' eyes narrow in thought; they relax at the obvious (though unintentionally, he'd guess) connotations of their relationship. it would be like kol to attach himself to the nearest pretty, impulsive young thing. )
I'm happy to hear he has a friend. ( despite the supposition he inwardly makes, there's no innuendo in his voice. he's genuine. as genuine as an older brother can be, anyhow. ) Kol and I ... never had the best of relationships.
no subject
Most of all? Kol had helped her learn and grow, something any wayward baby vamp with Maker issues would kill for. Maybe not in the best ways, because she did pick up far too many torture techniques out of him, and a whole lot of her attachment came from wanting to desperately feel like she belonged somewhere with someone. At least it was something?
So, yeah. Complicated. ]
Sorry 'bout that. I know I haven't known him for neeearly long as you have, but I can tell he can be hard to deal with sometimes. Can't imagine a thousand years of that.
[ Then, with a snort, she adds: ] Probably doesn't help that your parents were major assholes, too.
[ Boy, can she relate. ]
