• In short, STEP 1: Posts with ghosts! STEP 2: ?!?! STEP 3: PROFIT!

The Story:

And so it begins.

Throughout the mansion faded images will flicker in and out – ghosts of Wonderland's future. These ghosts can be of anyone, from any point in the next five years. They will play on repeat, as Wonderland's Chess Piece Ghosts have in the past, and they will offer brief glimpses into the future for anyone who witnesses them.

They cannot be stopped, and the images cannot be changed or altered. This isn't to say that the future can't eventually be changed, of course, but there is nothing that anyone can do over the course of this event that will change the contents of these imprints.

Would you listen to me for one bloody second? I had tunnels not even a third the size of those corridors, I had dynamite at every corner, you heard the basement collapse, and I still thought I could feel that thing snapping at my heels, I'm telling you, it's not going to work!

[ Another ghost moves, only a silhouette, a broken image. Words crackling like static, and whatever was said, or whoever said it, they didn't make it into this projection. The only clear sound is Philip's incredulous laughter, and the click of a another bottle being uncapped, and all but emptied already, gulp by gulp.

Half the argument plays on. Static. Words. Static. ]

I know that, y-- no, I know they can, they probably-- yes, but that doesn't matter, and you know it, and do you seriously need me to start going over every single time you thought--

[ There's a long pause. An utterly silent pause, without movement. A broken record, stuck on an instant. One second. Two seconds. Three s-- The ghosts flicker, and start moving again.

Philip's voice is calmer now, and he walks around, to the other side of the counter. Shaking his head he slumps down into a chair. ]

Look. I wasn't saying I'm not going, and I'm not saying we've got a bucket of better options to pick from. I'm only saying that it's going to get the lot of us killed, so if you want to p--

[ The ghosts flicker and disappear. For just one second there's nothing. In the next the scene stats playing again, on repeat. ]
