+ Down the Rabbit Hole (Saving Alice Part 1)+
So! We’ve left you in suspense long enough, I suppose! Shame on us, telling you an entire month in advance when Alice plot was going down. As a reminder, this event will run from Sunday August 9th to Saturday August 15th.
Mm, I do believe I promised you guys a way over too, didn’t I? That’s all under this cut as well.
On the morning of the 9th (Sunday), everyone will wake up to numerous signs on the walls. They look something like this:
There will be numerous signs like this, all over the mansion, inside and out, that say various things like: HERE, THIS WAY, WHERE ARE YOU GOING?, HEROES THIS WAY, NOT THAT WAY, ALMOST THERE, GO!, YOU CAN DO IT, THE ONLY WAY, THERE WILL BE MORE, KEEP GOING, NOT MUCH FURTHER, DOING GREAT, SOMETHING’S COMING, CAN YOU SEE IT YET?, SO CLOSE, RIGHT, OTHER RIGHT, COME HERE, ENTER, SO CLOSE!, ARE YOU THERE YET? THAT IS THAT, THIS IS THIS, WHICHEVER WAY, ABSOLUTELY NOT THIS WAY, UP HERE!, DOWN THERE!, DON’T STOP NOW, TURN HERE, DON’T TURN AROUND, GO FORTH, CAREFUL, DANGER, YONDER and so on and so forth. They will lead your characters all across the mansion, and each person or group of people following them will be sent to a different place (for example Team America might all see the signs leading them to the ballroom, but Kobato might find hers going in the opposite direction to the hedge maze). If they follow the signs long enough (at least ten or more signs), you will come across a hole.
This hole, dear players, is the infamous rabbit hole that got Alice into so much trouble in the first place. If your characters jump through it, they will find themselves somewhere random on the mirrored side of the mansion. TA-DA! IT’S HERO TIME!
Now here’s the part where we recap how mirror events work, for those who have not been with us for a switch-style mirror event before. : )
The basic thing to remember is that the real version of your character and the mirrored version of your character can not exist on the same side of the glass at the same time. This means that when your real character goes to the mirrored side, their mirror is forced out to the real side. The other thing to remember is that the mirrors have the ability to walk through the glass, so if your mirror comes over to the real side, your character will find themselves on mirror side, whether they wanted to help Alice or not.
Mirrors can be forced back to the mirror side - they are forced back when they are made to look at their own reflection. This will bring the real version of the character back.
For the purposes of this event, you only get one shot to go to mirror side. There will be no signs on mirror side to lead them back (we’ll detail you with how to get out willingly further in the event), but if they are forced by by the actions of their mirror, they will not be able to see the signs, and thus will not be able to join in with their companions again.
Of course, the Queen of Hearts is very aware that there are guests arriving. The event will officially begin when the Queen makes a decree to the mirrors with their orders. All mirrors will be under order to keep the real things entertained. Keep them busy. Distract them. Do whatever you can to lead them astray and keep them from doing what they set out to do. For mirrors on the real side, this means things like trying to prevent people from reaching the rabbit hole, and stirring up trouble on the real side. It will be a golden opportunity for any mirror who’s been wanting to go over and cause trouble. For mirrors remaining on the mirror side, it means preventing the real things from finding Alice or the Queen by any means necessary.
We have to ask that traitor mirrors . Please. We love that you’re nice and helpful, but the event is paced out for a reason. Alice’s location is top-secret, so many of the mirrors will likely not know her exact location anyway.
The other thing we must ask is that you do not kill each other on mirror side. Mirror side deaths are permanent. This applies to both mirrors AND real things. If you die on mirror side, you die for good. For the mirrors, this is often referred to as “being unmade”. If you feel the need to go around murdering each other (I don‘t blame you), let all of the murdering happen on the real side of the mansion. And please don’t forget common courtesies of asking permissions! :3
An additional reminder - anyone who is located on mirror side will make their posts in the![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
mirroruniverse community. Membership is moderated, but if you request it for your journal or for a mirror journal (not mandatory - you can just use a character journal if you prefer) we’ll accept it. Anyone posting on the real side posts in their regular character journal. Even the mirrors. We don’t care what journal you comment with, just make the post with the regular journal, and mark it somewhere that it’s the mirror character.
Real side - character journals
Mirror side - mirror community.
There will not be sign-ups, and we are not putting a cap on how many people can switch. We’re going to trust that you guys won’t all go to mirror side. :3
And, I think that’s it! Your characters will have a couple of days to settle and orient themselves to their new surroundings, and make their way around (and kick some mirror ass). Tuesday evening/Wednesday morning the next part will be announced, giving details on what’s in the dungeons, and what else is happening on the mirror side. I’m sure your lovely mirrors can keep them busy until then, mm? ♥
If you have any questions, please ask them here! I hope everyone has fun! :3

The mirrors posting to character's journals is a little more complicated, but that's simply because mirrors were created after the game began. The easier way would have been to set it up so everyone posts to communities.
But basically if it's in a character's regular journal, it's on the real side of the mansion. For example, if you switched Terra, you would have mirror Terra make a post in Terra's journal, so it shows up on the right side. You can think of it as the mirror borrowing their account to post, if you'd like. Tags, we don't care what journal you use. It's just to keep everything organized.

Uh, so, I still want to put up a post for Nikki for anyone who wants their mirror/s to get shot and/or who wants to kill him at the end of the event. On normal-side, obviously. I just want to double-check that this is acceptable.
kthx.

Can the different sides talk with each other? ie, a real side character stuck on the mirror side could respond to a mirror side character, when the mirror side character is on the real side?
That was the most confusing question ever, and I'm incredibly sorry.
