[Event!]

[vitaelamorte]

Who: Everyone!
Where: Dream bubbles
When: 9/15-9/16
Rating: PG
Summary: Everyone is stuck with their memories. And some other people.
The Story:
This log's pretty straightforward. There is one thread per group for the first day or two of the event, before people are able to leave their initial dream bubble groupings. ♥ If you have any questions, grab a mod on AIM.

EDIT: The mods have decided to let everyone continue with phase two of the event in this one log, since there's overlap between being stuck in the bubbles and moving between them.

So if you're posting to a group thread that isn't your initial group, just your thread with what day of the event it takes place on so people will know it's not from the first day or so.

Jade Harley: Land of Frost and Frogs

[spacetier]

It was a lot colder than she remembered. Or maybe it was because the Land of Frost and Frogs was a lot more "frost" and a lot less "frogs" at the moment. The volcano was still asleep. The lakes were still frozen. The only thing missing were annoying imps.

It doesn't take her long to realize this is a dream bubble. Maybe it's not a real one, but it was something like it. She missed the snow, to be honest. It all disappeared after the volcano blew. So she decides to stay in LoFaF. There was no harm in staying to build snowmen and ride down hills until someone found her.

Minato had found the memory he had been seeing before him rather peaceful and tranquil. It seemed familiar, and he hadn't felt anything was too off at the moment. The shrine was as it always was, with its offering box, the Inari Sushi, the tree, the small playground; everything was the same.

That is, until he wandered a little farther away from the temple grounds. It hadn't snowed this much if he could remember. But luckily there was someone there, someone who was starting to look also just as familiar.

"Jade?" Somehow the name came to him. It was nice though, not to have to be alone while experiencing everything currently going on around him.

[spacetier]

She turns toward him, smiles and waves.

It was reassuring to see someone from Wonderland. She was beginning to think that maybe, just maybe, this was all real and she was back on the ship sleeping. Don't get her wrong, she wants to go back home, but at the same time there are so many interesting people living in the mansion. Interesting people that she can throw snowballs at.

Jade picks up some snow and throws it at him. Welcome to LoFaF, Minato.

[jivitadana]

Best welcome ever. That was real snow, that was for sure. Memories in Wonderland were fascinating in that they made things real at all.

He brushed some of the snow off of himself, moving to pack some snow in his hands and throw the ball of frost back at her. Two could play at this game. Play first, ask questions about the memory later?

[spacetier]

Jade didn't expect Minato to throw one back at her. The snowball hits her in the gut and she stares at him as if he has just betrayed her. The look doesn't last long. Two can play at this game, she thinks, grinning and getting ready to throw another snowball.


She promises not to cheat.

[jivitadana]

Not that Minato would really mind if Jade cheated. He wouldn't have retaliated with a snowball counterattack if it weren't Jade either; he trusted her and she had a way of getting him to play too.

He smiled and stayed where he was, then gave her a nod, like it was a challenge. Throw the thing if you dare.

[spacetier]

And dare she does! The snowball comes flying at him, but misses. That's okay because Jade is already getting another one ready to pelt him with. Maybe this one will actually hit.

"What are you doing here?" she asks as she packs the snow.

[jivitadana]

"Wandering." Minato had been at the Shrine for a while and saw that this place had snow. He hadn't seen snow in such a long time.

He did move closer to her and picked up some snow too, imitating her as one form of teasing. It was going to be war now.

"What is this place?"
