Faithful friends who are dear to us gather near to us no more | 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 19th - December 26th (ICly December 25th) (WEEK TWO)
Rating: PG-13, warn if going higher
Summary: After a particularly intense week of holiday cheer and holiday scenes, Wonderland simply cannot take any more. The form it takes will no longer hold. Wonderland sheds its holiday skin and remains in the barest form of itself.
The Story:

As of the 19th, no one will be able to use the network to make posts. A new error message will appear on all screens, but again, it's probably fine.

This will quickly prove to be a problem though, as Wonderland has completely abandoned any sign of the signature mansion or its grounds. All of a sudden, it cannot hold itself together any more. At this point, Wonderland has become a series of holiday past, present, and future scenes instead of a collection of rooms, and none of them connect together in any sensical, linear way. If you find a friend wandering, you may want to stay with them. It will prove difficult to seek out people on purpose (though very easy to stumble across people by accident).

In between the various scenes, instead of the halls of the mansion, are one of three voids. Gravity does not seem to exist in them, and characters will float, swim, or spin around until they find a new scene to be in. There is no up or down, and no ground to stand on. Scenes are entered suddenly and without warning, going from floating along to suddenly standing in a memory or a vision (unless you have come from the second void). Characters can also find themselves traveling from void to void, but there is no precise place where they overlap, and if they turn around they will not be able to return to the void they were previously in. It is almost as though perhaps, the voids and the scenes are moving around, and that Wonderland no longer has a static form.

Wonderland will remain this way until the end of the event. What happens then? You'll have to wait and see. ♥ For now though, please enjoy the horrible voids that make up all of Wonderland at the moment. If you have any questions, please report to the plot post or check out our Fourth Wall Masterpost for all your other fourth wall needs!

[Michael's eyes snap open and he blinks a few times, before processing that someone actually said his name. It's another second before he focuses on Crowley, at which point he tries to stop himself from continuing to drift in a direction.]

I'm-- [He clears his throat. He doesn't have a great answer to that.] Wondering exactly where we are. And... what else is here.

[He's making an effort to look less nervous than he is, though.]

I'm siding optimistically with 'nothing', for the moment. [Crowley replies with a grimace. The mutterings he's been hearing get louder, as if in response to his doubts of their existence, and he holds the urge to hiss in the back of his throat.]

I know what it looks like, but it doesn't feel right. [Now, to stop Michael from floating away from him, he grabs onto the other demon's sleeve.]

I haven't been back for a while, but nothing feels like Downstairs does.

[personal profile] huisclos 2019-01-05 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Best case scenario, yes. [But he wishes he were a little more convinced there wasn't something lurking.]

Thanks. [And that proves he's not just seeing things, so that's also good to know.]

Oh, it's definitely not a Place--well, my version at any rate. [It's still a bit weird to him that the other demons here are from such differing versions, but he's keeping it in mind.]

[There's the faintest flicker in Crowley's expression at that - he doesn't like the idea of other places (or Places) any more than Michael does. As far as he's concerned, one world of demons is more than enough.

But Michael is... alright. He's no Hastur, at any rate.
]

Mm, mine neither. Come on, you're no use floating here curled up in a ball. There must be a way out.
huisclos: (concern)

[personal profile] huisclos 2019-01-18 10:49 am (UTC)(link)
There'd better be at any rate.

[He is, at least, looking around and no longer curled up in a ball.]

It's nowhere I recognize--but it's also not quite any kind of nowhere I recognize.

[He pauses, back to seeming wary.] You haven't seen any pancakes, have you?
saunteredvaguelydownwards: (003)

[personal profile] saunteredvaguelydownwards 2019-01-20 09:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Pancakes? No, I haven't seen any bloody pancakes.

[He makes a face, as if to say 'what kind of question is that??', then surreptitiously glances around himself just to make sure there are, in fact, no pancakes.]

All I've seen is a lot of nothing, and then you. Why would there be pancakes?
huisclos: (bleh)

[Michael blinks, because he's pretty sure it was a perfectly reasonable question for anyone who's been around the block--and then he remembers again that Crowley's from another version of everything.]

Hang on, did you think I meant the food? Because I meant the carnivorous inter-dimensional rifts.

[Because clearly, that won't lead to any follow-up questions.]

[personal profile] saunteredvaguelydownwards 2019-01-23 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
C...

[He doesn't get past the first letter, but curls his knees up slightly as they float in the void and pinches the bridge of his nose firmly with his thumb and forefinger.]

Michael... sometimes... you say things and I just... I have no idea what to say to you. Do you have any idea how disconcerting that is for me?
huisclos: (head hands)

[personal profile] huisclos 2019-01-23 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Is it more disconcerting than the rest of this place?

[He gestures vaguely around them, accidentally sending himself wobbling slightly in the lack of gravity.]

Anyway, I know you're from another dimension--which is weird for me too, by the way--but the IHOP should be connected to all dimensions. Maybe you guys call it something else?

[He genuinely doesn't seem to realise how much more confusing he gets the longer he talks.]

[personal profile] saunteredvaguelydownwards 2019-01-26 10:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes--! Alright, no. This rates higher on the disconcerting scale than anything that normally happens here.

[And-- Bless it, he still can't shake off the feeling that he's being watched. If anything, it's getting worse.]

Maybe we do. Maybe-- I don't know. Look, we need to get out of here. Somehow.
huisclos: (door)

[personal profile] huisclos 2019-01-29 11:15 am (UTC)(link)
You're right, we'd better try.

[Now probably isn't the time to try and explain the more baffling things he says anyway.]

Just... you know, keep an eye out. They're a menace. Not to mention the other parasites that live in that kind of space.

[And while this isn't precisely that kind of void, he's certainly making himself anxious about what might live here again.

He glances around, despite the fact all directions look the same, before moving his arms in a swimming motion to pick up some momentum.]
