vastness and vastness forever and ever.

[ There's a feed that's on, but it takes a moment for three separate faces of young girls to come into view. ]

Hullo, Wonderland!

We can finally play.

But not too much. We have things to do!

But we should still say something, shouldn't we?

[ The clearly older sister holds out her hands to shush them both, then her head tilts with a soft smile on her lips. ]

Have you ever wondered what it might be like up there? With the stars and the moon and all the places we come from?

I think it sounds awfully big and endless and scary.

Besides. I bet there are places to trap people for a very long time just like everywhere else.

[ A heavy sigh. ]

But what if you could escape? You could go to any place, dear sisters. Any place at all.

But what if something terrible happened there, too? Bombs or monsters or air that chokes you?

Don't be so negative, Elsie! Air is air. Besides, what world has bombs and monsters?

Lots, I bet. And spoooOOOOOoooky ghosts. [ She giggles until Tillie shoots her a look. ]

Perhaps sometimes, we must weather circumstances to appreciate our happiness and freedom and how pretty things can be. But for now, we must go gather treacle for the dormouse! Enough fretting about all the worlds out there.

[ The feed ends as the oldest sister begins shooing at them affectionally to get in gear. ]

[At first, this event makes Kokichi wish that Kaito was here for it. That idiot was all for going to space. Then the three sisters start talking about being trapped with ghosts and monsters that even the so-called Luminary of the Stars would run away from really fast.

Kokichi is not a space obsessed idiot. The first thing he thinks of is the last event, and the first thing he wants to do is make sure he has that backpack in his room properly packed and ready for the worst. But first...]

Hi! You must have come from the same place the Gryphon came out of!

[Not saying anything about the event... Yet. Better let the more "trustworthy" individuals do the interrogating.]

What are your names?

I'm Tillie.

[ She curtsies a bit. ]

I'm Lacie!

[ An excited wave, here. ]

[jamminshield]

Um, hi there! I'm Steven! [He starts off cheery, though it's hard to maintain the positivity on this subject. He hasn't exactly had pleasant experiences in space himself. His smile fades as he goes on.]

You... make some good points. Space can be really scary. I-it's best to just stick around here on the ground!

[treacletrio]

Have you been to space? It sounds too big!

[ Elsie is not a fan. ]

My sisters think I'm too afraid, but I don't think so!

[jamminshield]

A few times. It is really cool in a way. But... you're right. It does feel too big, too. [Especially when you're drifting through the void of space in a bubble, wondering if anyone will ever find you.]

It's okay to be afraid. That helps you to be more careful!

[Welp, sure enough, there it is. Pretty much every darn thing in this post speaks to Lapis, and she's not comfortable with that. But more than anything this continues to just make her feel tired.]

Been there already. I'll pass.

[treacletrio]

Could we really do that? Pass?

[ She confers quickly with her sisters. ]

Hullo. My name is Tillie. Please don't make my youngest sister think we can all pass on space and new places!

[ssmisery]

maybe she just hasn't tried hard enough

[fortune_cookies]

Bombs, monsters and air that chokes you is pretty much space. I think you're going to have to do better than that.

[treacletrio]

[ Cue confusion from all three. ]

Better than what?

For who?

What are we doing better than?

[bravejemma]

Do we at least get to keep our own minds this time?

[Not that Jemma's salty about being turned into a drone for alien tech or anything.]

[treacletrio]

It's not very nice when Wonderland tricks you into thinking you're something you aren't. I think it will be better if you know for this adventure.

[ well, look at that. A straight answer. ]

[krmvgivv]

...wow, it's like the Tweedles times... uh, 1.5.

[Look what's the point of being good at math if you can't be VERY SPECIFIC about things?]

Soooo, what's your deal? You're... new.

[treacletrio]

[ The video quality isn't great, like they're in a cave, almost with a light source from far away. ]

We got lost looking for treacle, but now I think we've found our way.

It took a very long time.

[choosetruth]

[More new faces. Interesting.]

I don't suppose you three know the Gryphon, do you?

[treacletrio]

No, we never met him.

We only know the other girls, sort of.

And we musn't forget about our dear friend the Dormouse!

[insincerecharm]

What things do you have to do? Besides your little treacle gathering.

[Yeah, that's Becks completely ignoring the Event warning and latching onto the more mundane part of this post. She can't stop the second half from happening, whatever it even means, but she can at least try to gather info. If the girls so tell her anything useful, at least.]

[treacletrio]

Well, we should explore what's new since before we were trapped.

I hear someone has eyes now.

And we have to go see if the attic is still too scary to go inside.

[Oh! Another new set of residents. Turing hasn't heard anything about these three before, at least in their research on the archives.]

Hmm, another space event, then? I hope this one isn't as...lethal as the previous event.

So the three of you are close with the dormouse, then?

Video

[treacletrio]

My only suggestion then is following the rules!

Oh yes, he is our very fondest friend.

[kingtrousele]

[Oh my GOD.]

WE JUST HAD AN EVENT LIKE A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO!!! REALLY???? CAN'T THERE JUST...NOT BE AN EVENT THIS TIME????

Video

[treacletrio]

Are you not aware of the mechanics of Wonderland, then? We can explain them to you.

[dreamsoftreacle]

[There is one thing and one thing only that could possibly summon the Dormouse from his slumber when it is not his turn to announce an event, and that is t r e a c l e.]

For me?

[treacletrio]

All for you!

There's still so much!
