+ Chalk it to me! - Mingle Log +

[vitaelamorte]

Who: EVERYONE!
Where: Anywhere outside on Real Side, but mostly in the gardens!
When: 3/14-3/20
Rating: PG, warn if going higher than PG-13
Summary: Alice has invited everyone, Reals and Mirrors alike, to come color outside in the nice spring weather with magic chalk. Surely nothing could go wrong with that plan, right?
The Story:

Outside, the weather is absolutely beautiful. It's not too hot, but not too cold either, and no one would have ever realized there was snow on the ground yesterday if they hadn't been here to see it. The grass is green and everything is dry - no sign of melted snow anywhere at all. Flowers have begun to bloom and it truly looks as though it's been spring for some time already. The season has changed abruptly and now Wonderland's decided it's time for it to be nice out.

There are many paths through the gardens, the vendors, and the hedge maze that can be drawn on, but as Alice demonstrated in her post, there's no need at all to stick to pavement only. Even the air can be decorated with living drawings!

This is a log for people who want to come color outside or people who want to check out what others are doing out here. It isn't strictly to interact with Alice, but she'll be around and will have a top level.

( Clementine has been going around with all her weapons, but also a water gun, because she worried about the chalk coming to life and attacking people. It's why she's there as the words come after Dipper, and she aims and fires at them.

Water spraying off and hitting the chalk. )

You've had nightmares where chalk words are attacking you?

[Clementine is so cool. Dipper gazes at her with heart eyes for a minute, then shakes his head. They're over. They never really even begun, and she's with Louis now, who's cool and knows math.]

When you fall asleep in the middle of homework things sometimes get weird.

[Even, or perhaps especially, when it's homework he's given himself.]

[waitin]

( Clementine turns back to look him with a little smirk of amusement even if she's still keeping her eye out on any words that might want to hop up at her, aiming and firing. )

I'll have to keep that in mind. Don't want to fall asleep on books, or they might haunt my sleep.

( That's only really a problem here in Wonderland, but she also only ever has time to fall asleep on books in Wonderland. )

[krmvgivv]

[Wise. There's a quadratic equation creeping up behind Dipper, ready to pounce. He doesn't see it.]

It's possible my parents and Mabel were right when they said staying up super studying multiple nights in a row was a bad idea.

[waitin]

Dipper, duck!

( Clementine turns, shooting just over his shoulder at the equation right behind him. It doesn't go down with one shot, but it does start to melt at the front- the part that was about to bump into Dipper at the back. )

[krmvgivv]

[Dipper yelps and ducks out of the way, twisting to see what she's shooting.

Drippy, melty numbers.]

Wow, that's... that's so gross.

[waitin]

Yeah.

( She fires a few more times to make it dissolve some more. )

...not sure what kind of damage a chalk word could do to you, but I really didn't want to let it stick around to find out.

[krmvgivv]

...me neither.

[It is just chalk. Chances are he panicked and really didn't have to. But Dipper's not about to admit that.]

You're pretty prepared. Had to save a lot of people from chalk monsters?
