hey wonderlanders, let's talk about something happy for a change. because not everything that happens here is bad, and not all of the events are awful. some of them are actually pretty fun. my first one was like that. it was hogwarts, and i came out of that one pretty okay with the fact that i couldn't remember who i was during it, and i actually kind of treasure what i remember of that time. is that weird?

tell me what your favorite events have been. would you mind experiencing them again?

ravenclaw. my. someone i really cared about was in gryffindor and then i had a few friends in slytherin too. i was way more popular in that school than i'm used to being.

no. like instead of looking into a mirror and seeing your reflection, you saw the mirrorside and all the mirrors hanging out over there. my mirror's kind of a bum.

[ bonnie? probably bonnie. beckett's dimly aware of the fact that bonnie was dating someone named peter. (she misses her, too.) ]

i used to be popular. can't say i miss it.
i don't want to meet mine. she's probably awful.

how come? not that i know much about being popular. guess that's why i'm asking.

yeah, most of the mirrors are. mine's just lazy. he wouldn't help me at all. i've kind of got it lucky in comparison to the others. definitely stay away from the mirrors when you can. don't listen to them.

my mom died. she had an aneurism while we were out surfing and drowned. i was popular because i surfed, because i was good at it and placed high in competition. when she died, i had this big popular target on my head and it was hard to make myself into someone they didn't want to talk to, because all they wanted me to do was talk about it and i didn't want to talk about it with any of them.

sorry, i didn't mean to dump that on you. and i won't.

i'm sorry. you didn't dump anything on me. i mean, i asked, and it's uh. it's really terrible. people don't really understand when it comes to stuff like that. they think you should deal with it in a certain way as if there's any way to deal with losing a parent especially so soon.

or they just want to pry and feel like they're a part of it. i don't blame you for wanting to get out of the spotlight. it's just shitty you had to go through so much to do it. uh. my parents died when i was little. i think that's a reason i've always been pretty comfortable not being popular. ( he was afraid of losing people, being abandoned by people so he never really connected to anyone. never really wanted to until gwen, and then wonderland changed everything else. )
