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! ♥

I'm really serious! Anything! Anything you ask for here is really good. [Jean began to walk back towards the Mansion, expecting her to follow.] Think back to when you were a kid, and your mom made you your favorite food. You can have that right now.

['Think back when you were a kid'.. Oof. That was a rabbit hole that Mikasa tried to avoid. Thinking back at her parents just caused pain. For a moment she froze, thinking back to the day that she saw her parents murdered in front of her. How stupid she was not to have run when her mother was fighting for her life so she could get away. How she was caught.... She was too young to know what to do then, but it was the first taste of the real world that she got. The world was just too cruel and not getting any better.

Sorry Jean, but it'll take her a moment to snap back out of it, her expression turning from the realization that she was hungry to a sort of sullen expression; that was, if he could distinguish that from her normal mood. Inadvertently tugging at her scarf, she let out a small sigh.]


I didn't say you weren't. I just don't really remember the kind of food my mom used to make. Bread is fine.

[Unfortunately, Jean wasn't an empathetic enough person to pick up on the subtle change in Mikasa's mood, much less interpret it correctly. He only caught that she was lagging behind, and he raised an eyebrow at her slight stagger.]

No no no. [He shook his head, almost vehemently.] Not just bread. I won't allow it. You've at least got to have some meat here. They've got all the best cuts, perfectly cooked. Sasha would eat herself to death here.

[Which was all fine and dandy. She really wasn't in the mood to ever talk about it. Pushing it out of her mind, much like she usually did for a lot of things, she'll pick up her pace.]

Well then, surprise me then.

[She really had no preferences and if Jean insisted she ate something besides bread, he could pick for her.]

Ha! People are always making me eat stuff when they hear I haven't had it before... Might be fun to do things the other way around for once.

[Don't worry, Jean won't subject her to anything too weird. Yet.]

[Inside, the Mansion was cozy and plush. The temperature was perfect and the furnishings were far nicer than anything in their world-- at least inside the Walls. The wallpaper was ornate and color, and the carpeting soft.]

[She hoped he wouldn't subject her to anything weird like that, but she'll just have to blindly trust him that he wouldn't on this one.

But examining the interior was something she wasn't used to. It was almost as if they were inside of Wall Sina, with their nice houses and cushy living. This was an alternative world they were in, after all; so it made no sense to question it.]


Looks like you've had it pretty good here.

[as far as living situation goes. Not so much what happens here, but she didn't know that much just yet. She can just imagine it's not as safe as it seems here.... Or maybe that was just Mikasa being cautious about everything?]

See? That's what I mean. It's nice, so if you're gonna be stuck here for a little bit, you might as well enjoy yourself.

[It's about as safe as it seems. Sometimes the situation can get dire during events, but even those a few and far between.]

[Jean leads her straight into the kitchen, since that where most of the action happens around here anyways. He motions her to sit down where-ever she'd like while he rustles up the sort of sandwich he likes to eat on a somewhat regular basis. The bread is really good and soft, and there's meat and cheese and condiments and everything!]


Here. And this is pretty simple by Mansion standards.

[personal profile] inhisdebt 2019-01-07 02:33 am (UTC)(link)

[Following him to the kitchen, she took a seat upon being prompted, letting him make whatever he wanted her to try. The fact that this even had meat was a surprise on it's own, but again... Alternative world.

Taking the sandwich once it was offered, she gave it a try. It was soft bread and it was pretty good over all. She was used to a harder bread, so it was different than what she was used to.]


It's good. [Simple response.] Do you eat stuff like this normally here?

Yeah. Like I said, every day. [He reached into the refrigerator and pulled out a perfect-looking apple. Whenever you opened that door, it gave you exactly what you wanted.] Someone could get seriously fat here if they didn't watch themselves.

[Half the reason Jean kept up with his training so diligently was to keep himself from falling into gluttony. It'd be easy, but he was a little too vain for that.]
