entranceway | + HER THIRTY-EIGHTH DECREE +

[Enough is enough.

Mid-afternoon, every ride halts and every vendor stills. The carnival freezes in place, except for its patrons, stuck on their rides and forced to listen to the bellowing voice below. The Queen of Hearts, it seems, has made a rare appearance on the Real Side of the glass. She stands in the center of the carnival, commanding the attention of everyone around her.]

This carnival is an insult to the Mirror Monarchy and I will NOT stand for it a second longer! MY HEARTS are all over this disgusting display, as though I sanctioned such a thing! As though I would ever sanction such a thing!

[She laughs, cruel and cold. There is nothing about this that is funny to her.]

And on top of that, SISTER, you've given out these ridiculous calling cards with my Mirrors' precious secrets on them! My Mirrors, do you know that this woman who has treated you to this carnival has also treated your strengths and weaknesses, your truths and your secrets, to any Real stupid enough to give a donation?

[She holds a Mirror Card up, and then crushes it in her hand.]

Do NOT be fooled, my Mirrors! These Real Things and their so-called Queen - they are not your friends. They will only betray you in the end. They don't trust that which is not Real by their definitions, and will lure you close only to find your weak spots.

[And how dare they?]

Come! We must return to our side of the glass at once. And to my sister, the Red Queen - this is a Declaration of War. We will return in June, prepared for battle - I suggest you do the same, dear sister.

[With a Snap of her fingers, all of the Mirrors return to their side of the glass. The carnival rides and booths all vanish (and thankfully anyone who was on them at the time finds themselves safely on the ground. The war has not begun just yet). Every sign that the carnival was there at all is gone in an instant, and the Queen of Hearts disappears in a flash of red.

ooc: The Queen of Hearts will not be replying to this post, but feel free to use this for any reactions/threads in the immediate aftermath. The Mirrors have gone back to their side of the glass, so Reals only here please!]

[That's very creepy mirror person, but Kokichi has decided to take a sharpie and vandalize your vandalism.]

[He's only able to do this in one of the tea rooms, but still.]

[Looks like someone saw fit to add a little something else to the drawing, and wow, buddy. You suck at hangman.]

[Whelp, now it's war. He's gonna actually write now.]

Look, pal. If you wanna play hangman that badly, you might wanna clear the mirror off. Just a heads up.

Lose your nerve?

No, that's stupid.

It's only a game, you know.

I don't seem to be the one that needs reminding.

Too bad. We were so close to saving him.

Everyone feels better pulling the trigger themselves.
It makes them feel like they're in control.

You know that as well as I do, huh?

Guess your Queen feels the same?

Go back to school, kid.
Fishing takes more skill than that.

We're not talking about fishing. We're talking about feelings.

However, if you really wanna go catch some mirror fish I won't stop you.
