entranceway | ( first video. )

[ jim spent his first few hours in wonderland getting himself orientated, or as orientated as he can get himself, at least, given the circumstances. he read a bit of what he could find in the library (he'll dig a little deeper later), wandered around the gardens until the snow started and then explored only a small fraction of the mansion. if this a kidnapping, he's not actually sure what to make of his captors. he has no idea where he is (this is definitely no where even in the vicinity of gotham, that's for certain), but it seems that he is free to go where he pleases in this... compound? whatever wonderland is supposed to be.

because the idea of it being the wonderland is just ridiculous.

the next step is to start talking to people. people who are possibly in a situation much like his, from what he's seen. so he pulls out the communicator he found when he first got here and switches it to the video function. well, he's hoping it's doing what he thinks it is, and broadcasting to people. otherwise he's just recording a video and talking to himself which is basically the opposite of what he wants to do right now ]

My name is James Gordon and I'm a detective from the Gotham City Police Department. [ the threat of arrest is there but left unsaid. his being part of the gcpd may not mean a whole lot outside of gotham, but he would hope the fact that he's still a cop would mean something.

he pauses a moment before deciding to continue ]

I hear this place is Wonderland. I never did like fairy tales. Who knew that this would be the one to try to get back at me for it.

Anyway, if anyone's seeing this, any information on where this actually is would be helpful.

I come from a place where we don't say things like 'neither Earth I'm familiar with'. So a pocket universe is beyond me too. [ where he's from, the only people who might say such things or believe in such things are the ones in arkham. or the ones who should be in arkham ]

So the mansion changes?

[She laughs.]> I know. I'm sorry. I tend to forget that not everyone has had literal holes between worlds ripped in their skies.

It does. Sometimes a little. Sometimes a lot. Most of the time it's a little. The library gains a floor.Sometimes it changes entirely. Turns into something different. Something new. Or a reflection of the worlds of its inhabitants.
