Dear Wonderland.
[She says it like she's starting a letter. To all of you Wonderland girls and guys! She's obviously in her room, the wall of pasted-on Polaroid photos behind her, with softly lit lanterns hanging across the surface on thin wires. It's late at night- or rather, it's the wee hours of the morning. Max has no idea how much the old midnight gang of insomniacs still prowls around the network. She used to be pretty active at this time- not so much anymore.]
This is gonna sound kinda weird, but I swear I'm not off my rocker. Maybe groggy and craving for food, but not crazy.
[ Come on Max, stop embarrassing yourself on the network!]
I was just thinking that I would've graduated by now, since it's June. I'd probably be scrambling to find some sort of arts college that I can afford or that I can even get into. [Or not. Spending a year traveling and taking photos sounds great, too, but college seems pretty important.] And it sucks that I don't have school here.
But... obviously a lot of things suck about Wonderland. Nutso mirrors, certain newbies showing up, all kinds of scary mystery type stuff, nasty events. I mean, sometimes it's... just shit. [Like the past few days, for a lot of people. The network's been full of downers. Her brow furrows as she looks to the side, and her mouth curves into a slight frown.] And I'm sure some of us are bringing in a ton of messed up baggage from back home, too.
[She holds up a stack of instant photos, maybe seven or eight. She angles the stack sideways, so only the sides can be seen by the camera. The girl's still a little too shy to show the actual images.] But see this? Each one's a photo of a... a friend I've made here. People I could actually hang out with. [She waves the little stack at the screen, preparing herself for this next admission.] That's more friends than I had- have in my school.
So yeah, Wonderland totally bombs sometimes. But there's some pretty good stuff going on, too. And I know this is gonna be really hard right now, but I want to hear it- what's something you're super grateful for? Something you might never have had if you hadn't fallen down the rabbit hole? [She tries to make it sound like it's fun challenge, smiling timidly at the screen.] Cuz I'm sure you could name at least three things.
[[OOC: After the post, she leaves her room to roam around the mansion, phone light in hand. Feel free to bump into her wherever! Also, she'll be replying to all responses, even the ones after sunrise.]]

[Her smile hitches wider into an all-out grin. She's never heard that comparison made before, but it's not wrong.]
Back home, I'm a hunter. My dad was one, too. A lot of people don't know what kind of monsters are out there, goin' bump in the night, but we made it our business to take care of them so those people could sleep safe and sound and not have to know. Ghosts, vampires, werewolves-- demons.
no subject
And if hunters have been keeping that stuff out of my life in Oregon, I am forever grateful. [But she become serious after a small pause. It's funny how she's started taking all this alternate-worlds stuff in stride.] Wasn't it scary...?
no subject
[Not that she has any complaints. It was the life she'd chosen for herself, after all, what she'd been wanting since she was just a kid.]
All the time. Any hunter who tells you they're not scared-- they're lying. We all get scared at one point or another, but it's hard to know about those things and just stay home and pretend you're like everyone else. Knowing what I did, seeing my dad do the same job when I was a kid... I couldn't turn my back on it. I knew I wanted to help. He was a hero. Didn't seem so scary, if I was just trying to be like him.
no subject
[She smiles warmly.] Saving lives, being scared, but... going out there anyway.
no subject
[Her smile tones down just a little bit, humble but still warm and genuine.]
You can't save everyone, but the people you do help? It means everything to them.
no subject
I hope so. Otherwise it'd just be... It'd just feel useless.
[Yup, exactly like that.
Time to change the topic.]
Anyway, Simon's a hero in my book, and I bet you are, too. I'll give you a call if I run into Dracula or Mister Hyde.
no subject
[Jo can take a hint, and she seamlessly moves along with the change in subject, offering a determined nod in reply.]
Absolutely. I'll be there with bells on.
