Wonderland, huh?

[There's a snort from the man on the screen, a handsome face that may be very familiar to some of those watching. Not that he's aware of that yet; having just arrived, he hasn't had time to comb through the network of posts available, to realize exactly who's here. What he has had time to realize is exactly what this place is supposed to resemble, and to realize that if he's ended up here, then he might not be the only one of his team.]

Can't say I was ever a big fan of the book, and the Disney movie was a bit too out there for my tastes. I commend the workmanship of the place, though, looks great- dead on to what I'd imagine it'd actually look like if Wonderland were a real. I'd commend it even more if someone could tell me exactly where we are, and how I got here, since I can't seem to recall actually getting here. Any takers?

[Redglare is looking a bit more bedraggled today, and oddly dressed. In fact, she looks a little more pirate-y than she used to. Well, a lot more pirate-y. Okay completely pirate-y. BUT SHE IS NOT A PIRATE. She is a woman of the law, even if it is her own law.

There are breeches and a white shirt and a vest and an impressively long coat, though she is missing a hat. In place of her glasses, there is a ragged strip of cloth tied around her eyes, because even like this she is blind. She is up on the highest place she can get to in the Mansion, which is of course the roof, and she shouting enough to bring the sky down. At least, if the sky was brave enough to come down and face her, which is clearly isn't.]


You! All of you! You sit under the thrall of this queen, of this land like dogs! Do you not want to find out why you are here‽ Why are you simply content to simply lay in the lap of luxury? Do you think it is fair to endure hellhounds and worse‽ You claim to want freedom, but you are simply content here doing little and gaining little and doing nothing to take it for yourselves!

[The speech goes on for SOME TIME. It is long, angry and by the end of it her throat is sore and her voice sounds raspy. It's amazing how much confidence someone who is shouting on a roof to the populace can exude, no matter how shabby their clothes.]

The items you have gained and the experiences you have gained... Are they really worth the things you have lost? Your worlds? Your friends? Your memories?

ahousedivided: Serious business? You're going to an opening of a new cupcake store. (We got serious business to attend to.)

hello this is america. river tauught me to use this to write letters on the screen. she is gone now. lots of pals are gone now. it is saddening. i hope they are happy where ever they have gone.

that is not why i write today thow. i am informing you that the vendors will not take memories from the last event because they are ****** (use expletive of choice i could not decide). this is not how capitalism works. you do not understand supply and demand queen of wonderland. you are going to have worse invlation than the southern states. i have some quality fake memories these should be worth at least a blt or a hundred dollar confederate note.

worthless. being english is so worthless. it is now fact.

i have brushed my teeth so hard that my gums are bleeding but i am now confident ive cleansed the posh ugly accent out of my mouth.

does anyone want my memories from the last few days i sure dont.

[If anyone had seen Henry's room a week ago, they would have seen it covered in papers from floor to ceiling. But today, because of the event, the walls were bare except for one piece. Henry's looking confused and a little upset.]

I found all these pages in my room the other day, so I read them. They mention the book I was given before I ended up here and even things that weren't in the book. My grandmothers had a fight and my mom had a boyfriend apparently before I was born. I'm just not sure how true it is.

Curses and fairytales aren't really true, right?

[For whatever reason, the Mansion's most confident individual has chosen to not show her face on video. Maybe it was something emotional, or maybe it was a complete lack of understanding of this world's technological devices (even her own world's was beyond her comprehension), but her voice just barely veils a sort of ... resignation.]

It appears that I am st ... [Don't say the word don't say it, saying it makes it real] staying here longer than I had previously intended upon arrival. If that is the case then of course I am going to make the most of it. Any interesting spots to investigate, any impossible creatures needing to be killed, any history around to be learned, I would appreciate a nudge in the proper direction. Anything is better than sitting and twiddling my thumbs aimlessly.
