Summary: Mingle log for the Dream Side event! After the girls’ seance, every single person in Wonderland, no matter what they were doing at the time, will black out. When they awake, they will find themselves in a strange and twisted world outside of time - a different one than usual.
The Story:

After the girls’ seance, every single person in Wonderland, no matter what they were doing at the time, will black out. When they awake, they will find themselves in a strange and twisted world outside of time - a different one than usual. Elements may seem familiar, but it's clearly a different place.

Welcome, Mirrors and Reals, to DREAM SIDE. The sky above is dark and speckled with far-off stars but the world below is unnaturally lit and bright. There is a mansion at its center, but it is warped and unusual, as though someone stretched it like taffy, but if you try to enter it, you'll find that the door is not just locked - it appears to be painted on, as though it is just static scenery. It isn't a mansion that can be entered, just a cartoon-ish mansion cobbled together from dozens of memories.

Dream Side, as you might have guessed from the name, is not a static place. It is built from the scraps of dreams of those who cross into that side of Wonderland. Characters on this side of Wonderland are not asleep, but the world they are in is shaped by the contents of their dreams. Unlike the glass between Real Side and Mirror Side, there does not seem to be an obvious thing connecting this Side of Wonderland to the other two - at least, not something visible.

They are not alone in this world either - because the girls were conducting a seance, they have inadvertently called upon the dead. For each time your character has died a mansion death, there will be a ghostly copy of them wandering Dream Side. They will look as standard ghosts do - pale and translucent, looking as they did the moment they died. They will have a tendency to haunt their current living version (and those who care about them), but they will not be able to speak directly with them. For Mirrors, these ghosts can be Unmade versions of themselves, if they were ever Unmade. Some ghosts might be hostile and some might just gently haunt from a distance - it will depend on the character and what they would do if they were a ghost how they behave.

Behold, the world your dreams have built!

[ Well, that's disturbing. This whole situation is disturbing. ]

What does it do to 'sate its hunger,' exactly?

It eats everything in its path, naturally.

[A simple answer, but also one that feels more alarming when punctuated by a bite of cheddar.]

[personal profile] holyshihtzu 2019-06-23 05:18 am (UTC)(link)
Right. Naturally.

[ She says as if that's totally the response she expected. It wasn't. ]

It obviously hasn't eaten all of us yet. So, when it got out this most recent time, do you have any idea where it would have gone?
dreamsoftreacle: (In your face)

[personal profile] dreamsoftreacle 2019-06-24 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
That's a tough question for a number of reasons. Mostly though, it hasn't been here in some time. Last time it got out, it was locked away inside the Core. It seems to have broken out since then, so it's only a matter of time before it turns up here again.

[ It's probably not much of a comfort though, to know that it wasn't where it should have been.]
holyshihtzu: (✺ what you do to survive)

[personal profile] holyshihtzu 2019-07-02 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Nope. No comfort at all. ]

Do you know if there is any way for it to stay dead? Or at least trap it here permanently? [ Sure, the Core hadn't been able to hold it, but this place is pretty different, and apparently usually off-limits to everyone but the Dormouse. ] No offense. I know this is kind of your place, but it does seem to eat fewer people when it's here and not out there.

[personal profile] dreamsoftreacle 2019-07-08 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
None taken. It used to be here more permanently, actually. Ideally, this is where it would stay, but...the one who was supposed to keep it here didn't care for their job much, it would seem. So with no one to keep watch, it'll only keep escaping.

[It's been an issue for quite some time, it would seem.]
holyshihtzu: (✺ giving that heaven away)

[personal profile] holyshihtzu 2019-07-24 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
Is there a specific person assigned to keep it here?

[ Because if there was, they are definitely in a lot of trouble. ]
dreamsoftreacle: (In your face)

[personal profile] dreamsoftreacle 2019-08-01 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
There was, once. But it's been a long time since this place had a Queen.
holyshihtzu: (✺ cannot see the sky)

[personal profile] holyshihtzu 2019-08-11 03:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Which queen was in charge here, when there was one?
dreamsoftreacle: (...Why a coconut?)

[personal profile] dreamsoftreacle 2019-08-11 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Mm, I think you can puzzle that one out for yourself, don't you?
