OPEN | the "Lost People" mingle!

Who: Every lonely person with a story to tell! (Check out the OOC details if you haven't yet!) Oh, and Peter Pan (

boyhood), too.
Where: Mingles are out on the mansion grounds.
When: June 4th-6th, night.
Rating: PG-13? We'll see.
Summary: Peter is up to old tricks. Using his influence as the Pied Piper, Peter gathers together everyone in Wonderland he can for a celebration. Are you ready to make some new friends, sad sacks? This doubles as a convenient excuse to see how many vulnerable children there are.
The Story:

So you heard a little tune on the air and you've come to play! The more, the merrier. Night 1 isn't strictly an action event, but if you'd like to have your characters react, or just want to thread something out for that time, go for it. Night 2 and Night 3 are where the action's at. The prompts are general ideas of what's going on!

Anyone who isn't invited is going to find they can't figure out where everyone's disappeared to, exactly, and if they do go to a location, it's going to look like nothing's going on. Strange, huh? For those who are invited, he only rule is this: mingle to your hearts' content! Make new posts, tag into things, do what makes the most fun!

After each night, everyone will be free to disperse before the sun comes up. They'll wake up in their beds feeling refreshed, with the pleasant, surreal sense they've just had a sweet dream.

Except it wasn't really a dream, was it?

[He pauses for a moment to look back at Integra as she spoke and ruffled Eren's hair. How funny that she knew what he was talking about. But he was drunk by this point as well. The bottle in his good hand was dangerously low.]

What the fuck are you talking about, Eren?

[Alliwhatnow?]

[She didn't even bother this time to chastise him for cursing, there was simply no point. Instead, she tugged Eren closer. It was a lot easier to stand when she had someone to lean on.]

An Alligator, it's a very large reptile with razor-sharp teeth. Fortunately for us, we won't encounter them in the ocean. You must have ready the wrong part of the book.

[It's okay. It's a lot of information to take in.]

I don't think we should be here during the night. It's hard to see what's in the water, or in the sand.

Lady Hellsing's world, sir. She was telling me about it the other day. It's amazing.

[He shifted a little to accommodate the extra weight. It was actually kind of nice to have someone lean against him in such a friendly manner. At her words, though, he quickly looks down at his feet.]

There are things in the sand to watch out for as well? Ah, if that's the case, then... [Then maybe she was right. He hadn't realized the beach was such a dangerous place.]

[He raised his eyebrow before he glanced down and kicked the sand as he took another drink.]

Fuck it.

[He wants to see more. So fuck the sand and whatever is in it. He takes a few steps to the water, stopping just before the waves touch his shoes.]

[Why wasn't she surprised the idiot was going to do whatever he wanted.]

Of course the one with a sling is the first to do something stupid. [Though she wasn't mad because she knew perfectly well they were both drunk.] Damned drunk.

[Using Eren, she sat down on the sand and leaned back, downing the rest of her bottle and throwing it aside. It was a lovely light. See? She wasn't lonely after all, she was with two people! Not lonely.]

[ He helped Integra settle down. Once she was properly seated though, he begin to show signs of restlessness.

When he spoke next, it was done quietly, so the captain couldn't hear:]

I should probably make sure Captain Levi doesn't fall in... or something.

[Yeah right. He just wanted to get closer to the water.]

Since he's a little tipsy, and all.

[Wow, he might be drunk but he isn't gonna fall over and drown. That would be dumb as hell...

He does feel a bit dizzy though staring at the waves. He stares for several more seconds before he started to focus on something. There was something moving between the sand and waves.

It was a crab. But he didn't know that.

He stepped on it, lightly with his foot because he didn't want to touch it, but he didn't want to kill whatever it was either. Just enough pressure for it to stop moving.]

The fuck is this?

I can't see. Eren, pick it up.

[Let's start bossing people around. Also, she sees right through your shit, Eren. You're such a teenager.]

[ Oh? What might it be? He goes over to investigate.

Shit. That thing was terrifying! ...Eren decided to pick it up anyway.] Please move your foot, sir. I'll take care of it from here!

[Good. Make Eren do it. He was so drunk he might actually not get up if he bent over right now. He lifts his foot and the crabs then starts to scurry.]

Catch it.

[Of course, the crab thinks it's probably the best idea ever to just scurry off towards Integra. She straightens up a bit and then starts chuckling.]

That, gentleman, is a crab. A very large on at that. They're not very dangerous as long as you can keep yourself from being pinched by the pincers.

[She lazily threw a shell... and missed. Really, her vision was a little blurry by now but it's fine. It's a god damned crab. She ain't scared of a crab.]

Right! Watch out for the pincers! [Eren stored the new information, and kept it in mind as he went in for the catch. It took him a little longer than he first expected it would. He hadn't been expecting the crab to run sideways!

Once it was caught, he held it up proudly for everyone to see. Wiggle and snap all you want, you little bastard. Eren is not letting go.]

Got em! My first crab!

[He stares at it for several seconds. He was surprised by how weird this thing looks.]

Ugly little fucker.

[He looks from the crab to Eren after he said that.]

You aren't collecting them.

[They are weird and smell bad.]

He can do whatever he wants as long as he doesn't kill it and takes care of it.

[Because really, don't make the tenth floor smell like death because you suck at taking care of crabs.]

Besides, I'll laugh if he gets pinched.

I'm not collecting them. It's just the one. [For now.] And I'll take great care of it.

Huh... But it is pretty ugly, huh? And it has no hair, either. [After a long moment of thought, he nods his head.]

It kind of looks like a Connie.

Don't listen to her. I don't even think you should keep one. You don't know shit about these things.

[He gives it like a week before you kill it. And Connie? Really?

Actually after staring at it for awhile he does see kind of a resembles here.]

Are you his father or something? If he can kill, he's old enough for a bloody crab.

[Yeah, it's probably going to die. She'll agree with you there.]

How long are we going to stay here, I'm freezing.

[No, don't listen to them, Connie. You aren't going to die.

Levi might not be his father, but he is Eren's commanding officer. He really wants his blessing.] Please, sir?

I'm his commanding officer, I might as well be.

[Wait what? What are you asking Eren? Were you really asking permission to keep this....uh...thing?

He sighs. It might be the alcohol in his system, but he is feeling lenient right now.]

I'm not cleaning up it's shit.

[So...there you go Eren. Have fun.]

Now come on, it's cold.

What a charming little family you two make.

[Really, asking for permission. Christ, you two are adorable. Now it all makes sense to her.]

Eren.

[She can't get up, you're going to have to... help her.]

[Eren doesn't get the opportunity to direct a true smile Levi's way too often.] Yes! Thank you, sir.

[He shifts his grip on Connie to one hand, leaning down to help Integra up with the other. In the process, Connie starts to nip at his hand, but he's not about to make a big deal over it. Not after he just managed to convince Levi that he's capable of handling it.]

I'll [ouch] pull you up.

[Eren, he really wonders about you sometimes. And he totally notices that crab snapping at you. He won't call you out on it. He will at least give you a day before he gives you grief about your pet keeping skills.

Also he isn't able to walk in a straight line right now. Eren, you are in charge of two drunks. Can you handle this?]

[You're going to have to find your own walking stick, she's wrapped an arm around Eren's shoulders rather grateful they were the same height. She knew he needed to keep both hands on the crab so she was just making things easier for him.]

[Eren proceeds to help them both along while in a state of bashful happiness, holding Connie with both hands, enjoying Integra's warmth from the arm wrapped around his shoulder and occasionally stopping to make sure Levi is managing walk in the right direction on his own.

Ah. In a way this wasn't good, was it? If they stayed here too long, he'd start to enjoy Wonderland.]

[Levi manages to stay on the right track...for a bit at least. He finishes the bottle and keeps a tight hold on it so it doesn't escape his grip and liter. Even if he was drunk, he wasn't about to make a mess.]

Fuck, no one told me sand was so fucking nasty.

[It's all over his pants ew. He looks over to Eren and Integra now. She had been sitting in the sand, so she must be in the same boat as him. Don't mind him staring at your ass, Integra (for a bit longer than he might have intended).]

How are you clean still?

[Tell him the secret...]
