1st plot [Video/action]

[shslliar]

[What is this place? Is it even real?]

[Kokichi stares longingly at the clear blue sky, watching the clouds just roll past. How could he have gotten so used to there being a cage blocking the view? How could he have missed the cool breeze blowing against his cheek? The fresh air, the distant chirping of birds? How...]

[This can't be real. The last thing he could remember was being pushed to go through that damned obstacle course of death for what seemed like the hundreth time already, and passing out from exaustion yet again. People don't magically teleport to freedom like that! Especially not to weird gardens. Alone.]

[But he's too tired to think right now. His body's still aching from what he felt was physical torture. He needed to lay his head back down on the grass and rest...]

[Eventually, a new person acesses the network today. A teenager, and a young one at that. He briefly clears his throat before addressing everyone.]

Uh, hello? Are there any other students with Ultimate talents here? We were trying to escape this awful prison school and I think I got seperated from my class.

[Not the entire truth here, but acting lost would sound a lot better than immediately accusing some random loser of kidnapping.]

I'm really worried.

[Why does this scenario sound really familiar?]

What's the name of your school?

[At least he wouldn't have to worry about that "school" here. Sort of. Memories and events were a tricky thing.]

[video]

[shslliar]

The Ultimate Academy for Gifted Juveniles. You probably haven't heard of it.

Besides, I don't think it counts as a school when it's run by a teddy bear that wants us to kill each other. [Does that sound familiar?]

[video]

[jivitadana]

[Huh. Not the name he was expecting, but still.]

A black and white teddy bear?

[Just checking.]

[video]

[shslliar]

Yep.

[He gives the other kid a look of suspicion.]

Were you working with him?

[video]

[jivitadana]

Do I look like I do?

[Also just wondering. He really did wonder, out of curiosity. And just so this other boy knew:]

You're in Wonderland now. You can't stay or leave of your own volition.

[video]

[shslliar]

You never know. Looks can be deceiving sometimes.

[The littlest evil overlord should know.]

[That's very disappointing news, by the way.]

What? You mean I'm gonna be stuck here forever?

[video]

[jivitadana]

[The boy could figure out if Minato did work with that black and white bear or not. Time would tell.]

Not forever. But it depends on when it decides to send you back. While you're here, they'll be events based on people's memories. Maybe yours too.

Re: [video]

[shslliar]

[It'll be sooner than later.]

So I won't know when I'll ever see my friends or family again? I'm already missing them....

[He sniffles a little like he's actually on the verge of tears.]

... Wait, events? Memories?

[naughty_nurse]

Eh?! Ultimate?!

[Another schoolmate? Is it from Sayaka's class, or Ryoko's, or... and what does he mean, prison?!]

Another Ultimate... No way...

[shslliar]

Woah...

[Another Ultimate... He didn't think he'd see more of them around, ever. This certianly didn't look like anyone he knew.]

Hey, what's your talent? And where are we?

[naughty_nurse]

[She bows deeply.]

M-My name is Mikan Tsumiki. I'm the Ultimate Nurse. From the bottom of my heart... I sincerely hope we can get along.

You're in Wonderland... That awful bear can't hurt you anymore.

[shslliar]

[Kokichi simply bows his head in response. If anyone asks, he's holding the camera.]

Same here! I'm Kokichi Oma, the Ultimate Supreme Leader...

... And how did you know about Monokuma and his game? [Sounds suspicious.]

[naughty_nurse]

[Supreme Leader??? Is that like Sonia and Ultimate Princess???]

... You weren't the only class that was subjected to his game. My class, and one other...

[shslliar]

[Sort of. Good luck getting a straight awnser.]

[Not that he will right now. The situation just got a whole lot worse.]

What?!

Does that bear get off on murdering talented people or something?

[naughty_nurse]

I-I don't know! That he could do it again... I can't believe it!

It was held in a school... Mine was on an island... and yours was in an actual prison?!

[shslliar]

Ugh... You'd think he'd get bored of it after a while.

[He doesn't seem too fazed... Right?]

You could call it a prison, but it was more like a school with a giant glass cage over it. It was so far from the outside world nobody else could hear us scream.

The prison school concept sounds familiar. I think they're from some sort of school for the gifted, though. Haven't heard them mention ultimate anything.

I don't think you'll find your entire class, though. It sounds like Wonderland brought you here while you were trying to escape. [ She wonders, briefly, if this person is prone to panic. But there's no real way to tell yet. ]

It might help to talk it over in person, if you're comfortable with that. There's a great diner on the 8th floor, if you like. Or a coffee shop, or somewhere on the grounds?

[1/2]

[shslliar]

What?! I'm stranded here all alone?!? What will I do?

[2/2] Sorry.

[shslliar]

... Well, that's what I would have said if two other people didn't already tell me where I am.

[One other "Ultimate" has beat ya to it, Sharon.]

Going off Tsumiki-chan's explanation, our Ultimate thing is kind of like what they do at Hope's Peak, except with the government certifying guys like me for our awesome talents. But hey, as long as I'm away from that Momokuma bastard, I guess I'll live. [Shrug.]

Oooh, can we go to the diner to talk? Pleeeease?

[2/2] Sorry.

[agentxthirteen]

[ At first, Sharon thinks that this person is definitely prone to panic, which is very, very bad in Wonderland. But no, they're just another asshole in Wonderland. Never let it be said that Wonderland doesn't have a type. ]

Ah. That's a trick of the network. You can see all the replies, but the rest of us would have to go into the archives to see them.

[ She hesitates, suspecting that this is just them being an asshole again, but hell. Fences don't make good neighbors, right? ]

Sure. It's the Rabbit Hole Diner. Easy enough to find. I'll meet you there in five?

[video] > [action]

[shslliar]

Ooooh. I had no idea. [He sounds like he actually meant what he said for once.] Thanks for the info, miss...

Um, what was your name?

... Nevermind, we can meet in the diner. See ya there!

[He turns off the feed. When Sharon gets there, the kid's trying to order something.]

Woooow, this stuff's for free? That sounds awesome!

[action]

[agentxthirteen]

[ She's barely opened her mouth to introduce herself when the signal is cut, and she ends up just sighing to herself. This kid's going to be a handful, isn't he? After a moment, she grabs her stuff and heads downstairs. He's easy enough to spot, and she sits across from him. ]

Hard to charge anything when there's no money. [ She shrugs. ] A lot of people have gotten jobs just so they have something to do. There's a coffee shop, too. Even a planetarium.

So. Should I go through everything I know about Wonderland, or do you have any specific questions?

[action]

[shslliar]

[Expect more of that.]

No money? Why doesn't Wonderland have any currency? Is it 'cuz of the closets?

[action]

[agentxthirteen]

[ Note to self: Do not mention that this kid can get all the sugar he wants for free. Sharon doesn't think that would end well. ]

Essentially because of the closets, yeah. I imagine there are too many various currencies for Wonderland to bother with an exchange system, so it just did away with it.

The vendors outside the mansion don't deal in money. They deal in memories. So if you buy something from them, it'll likely cost a memory from you. I haven't found anyone who thinks you have control over which memory they take, either.

Most of the businesses here - the ones run by residents, at least - are run because people see the need, are bored enough to craft a business, or both.

But yeah, you can get most of what you want from the closets. Clothes, furniture. Food, even. But you have to be careful - you'll never get the original, and if you aren't very clear, there might be something... off with whatever you get.

[action]

[shslliar]

[You think he wouldn't find that out himself?]

[Whatever, the memory thing is more concerning.]

UH... I don't I'd sell my memories for anything... What would cost you that much?
