Krampusjail Pajama Party | OPEN

Who: All of the Prisoners of the Krampus.
Where: Some unground dungeon that definitely wasn't here before all this started.
When: All event
Rating: PG - R, depending on exactly how naughty your characters have been.
Summary: Catch-all log for Krampusjail shenanigans throughout the event! So you were a bad person and got yourself tossed into Krampusjail in the middle of the night - now what?
The Story:

If your character is someone who could be considered “naughty” or “a terrible human being” for whatever reason then they may be visited by the Krampus this Ewaymas. For the first day they will hear chains rattling intermittently throughout the day, and only they (and others the Krampus has targeted) will be able to hear these chains. Then, that night, when they're trying to sleep, the Krampus will come for them in the middle of the night. He will then proceed to smack them around with birch branches and shove them into a woven basket and carry them away. The naughty character in question will find themselves thrown into a dark dungeon (in a place that looks suspiciously like the caves and tunnels of Wonderland, but far enough down that no one can hear them). There are multiple cells though, so they may have some company in Krampusjail. The Krampus will occasionally come by like a horrible jailer to hit them with his birch switch and get them to admit their wrongdoings and atone for them, but otherwise they will be left alone to think about what they've done. For food, they will have water brought to them and small baskets of adorably horrifying bread in the Krampus' likeness. If a character starts to show that they really regret their behavior and that they're really sorry, whether the Krampus is there or not, the door will swing open and they will be released early. If they lie about how sorry they are or they refuse to apologize, they will have to serve their full sentence – which will be three to five days, depending on exactly how naughty they've been.

Since the maximum sentence is five days, put the dates your character will be in Krampusjail in the subject of your top level, so others will know whether their characters will be jailed at the same time or not! If you have questions, please direct them to The Event's FAQ thread. Prose or [Brackets] are more than welcome!

[It has taken Helena all of her might to not laugh. Her magic, sadly, is not effective against the Krampus, but at the hitting with the branches, she asks aloud:]

You have not seen my back, your birch branches mean little to me.

[Yeah...Helena's not getting out early for good behavior. And she doesn't really care, either. She will not atone, she won't be begging. She has been through much worse in her life, including being locked in smaller cages. At varying times on varying days, she speaks do the other Dark Ones in her head, talking out loud, having one sided conversations that are different levels of crazy sounding.]

No, we cannot crush the Krampus heart. He will not be made to suffer.

It would be interesting to prove we did not learn a lesson because of this jail. But no one yet deserves to die.


The bread is good, but I suppose you would not starve in a few days.

[That last one is said to whoever beside her isn't eating their bread. She takes hers and bites the head off first, roughly, even.]

[Other people in the jail might regard Helena as though she's completely insane, but unfortunately, Regina has experience with what she's going through, now.

And well, when you kill someone and then they kill you and become darkness incarnate, you should probably check on them more often.]


If you won't crush his heart, I will.

[Though she won't try because she wants to get as far away from this dank prison as fast as she can.]

[Sitting up, Helena looks at Regina, silently regarding her. She sort of hates her, sort of doesn’t. Having the one in her head helps with the not hating part.]

Well, we could try together. See how far we get. I do not think this....ugly little man will be trying to kill us back. He is about punishment and suffering. Not death. Otherwise he would not give us cute bread.

Punishment and suffering can be fates far worse than death.

[She doesn't know much of Helena, not really, but she gets the feeling the other woman is familiar with the concept.]

Unfortunately, unless we make it past him and out of our cells, we won't be able to do anything.
donotcallmethis: (; what is this you speak of)

[personal profile] donotcallmethis 2016-01-03 04:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh yes, yes they can. But if this is all the punishment? [She makes a ‘pfffft’ sound, as if this is the weakest form of punishment she’s ever seen. And honestly, compared to Tomas so far it is. Even with the hitting.]

I have had worse things. I have also done worse thing. But I do not care if he keeps me here. Eventually Wonderland will end this as they end all things. [Helena spent months in a military prison, this is...at least not subject to human experimentation. She assumes. Hence the almost blasé attitude.]

You though...you have never been much out of control of things, have you?
madehervows: (pic#8459752)

[personal profile] madehervows 2016-01-04 11:35 am (UTC)(link)
Just because it's going to end eventually doesn't mean we have to accept it.

[Helena, pls.

Regina's back goes straight when she hears Helena's question. They both know Regina knows that Helena knows that she knows that a piece of her is inside Helena's head now, her legacy as the Dark One. She hates this, but maybe she can use it to get through to Helena.]


... You'd be surprised. It turns out very little in my life was ever really under my control.

[Helena faux gasps, then tsks.]

Oh yes. How can we forget. Little puppet. So many strings.

[She sits up then, and in one quick movement (not magic, just Helena being Helena) is at the bars, facing facing Regina.]

I know that pain. Told I will be one thing. Told to be ‘avenging angel,’ but you know...some days I only wanted to read my books and eat my sugar. But Tomas has very bad punishment, so...I go kill.

[Regina just rolls her eyes and then dryly says:]

Do I look like Pinocchio?

[Sudden war flashbacks to the nose torture.

Regina isn't even startled by the sudden movement, not after all the times she visited Rumple in his cell and he did the exact same thing.]


Only some days? So there were days you wanted to kill, then.
donotcallmethis: (; what is this you speak of)

[personal profile] donotcallmethis 2016-01-21 08:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[She shrugs a little.] Then, yes. Now, only if they hurt babies. Hurt my family. [Killing Regina wasn’t so much because she’d killed Helena herself, but she’s pregnant, and that was just rude.]

Then, I was told I was much more than everyone else. I had to prove it by killing all the others. But the ones I did not want to kill I did anyway. I mark them off. I never forget.

Do you? Do you forget the ones you killed?

[She stops, cocking her head to one side, listening to the version of Regina in her head before speaking once more.]

Daddy, perhaps.

[personal profile] madehervows 2016-01-23 01:24 pm (UTC)(link)
How noble. And yet, murder is still murder. Trust me, I would know.

[She's killed for far less, after all. And in far greater numbers than Helena could ever hope to achieve.

Regina just basically does this because the FUCK YOU SAY.]


I suggest you choose your next words very carefully. Because you might be the Dark One now, but that just means there'll be no end to what I do to you.
donotcallmethis: (; putting up with your bullshit)

[personal profile] donotcallmethis 2016-01-24 07:46 pm (UTC)(link)
I did not tell the story to make excuses. It is what it is.

[She sits back then, tilting her head to the side and just regarding Regina for a moment.]

So, you do. Was it worth it in the end? Would he be happy for all the things you have?
madehervows: (pic#7124728)

[personal profile] madehervows 2016-01-27 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
Any price would have been worth it because it got me my son.

[And eventually, Robin. But Henry is always the priority. As to whether or not Henry Sr. would be happy... ]

He would. [Said without a trace of doubt, because,] All he wanted was my happiness and finally I am.

What is it like, having a father?

[Helena's curious. It couldn't be like Tomas was, fathers are supposed to be good, she thinks. Sitting against the bars, her back is to Regina now, the tops and edges of the scars on her back visible at the top her torn (from being beaten) shirt.]

Though I am not sure being happy to be murdered is normal.

[That is so far from what Regina had been expecting that it managed to stun her into silence. She sits back down, mirroring Helena's position.]

He was a good man, everything my mother wasn't. [And that's all she'll say about Cora, considering how things ended there. Nevermind that Helena has her own Regina in her head that could tell her this.] He was a means to an end for her, but he loved me. Even if it meant he paid the ultimate price.

[She doesn't regret it, will never regret it, but she misses him. What she wouldn't give to introduce him to his grandson.]

It's... hard to explain.
donotcallmethis: (; putting up with your bullshit)

[personal profile] donotcallmethis 2016-01-29 04:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[She’s quiet, listening, both to the actual Regina and the one in her head before speaking again.]

Things are not so simple. I understand this.

[Helena pauses for a beat.]

You killed me because I did not know what your sister was?
