+ HER EIGHTEENTH DECREE +

[onlyredroses]

[The Queen of Hearts has been rather discontent in the last week or so. She had not been expecting to lose her mirrors in the chess match, and when the Queen loses everyone loses. At first she had allowed it, simply because she would not truly be losing or gaining anything - she would just be exchanging her old mirrors for new mirrors

That isn't fair.

[onlyredroses]

Are you suggesting that I do not know what's best for you?

[give_u_sunburn]

[....]

You gave us a gift that you promised to us.

[onlyredroses]

Oh, dear. I hope you won't go about being selfish now. After all, I have given you the greatest gift you could ever desire - your existence in this world.

Besides, a promise is not more important than your security and happiness - neither of which can be achieved on that side of the glass.

They are quite....dangerous over there. I have never been happier to be back with you my Queen. Your praise is all I ever wanted but you gift was very generous.

[onlyredroses]

They are quite dangerous, aren't they? Like little rabid animals.

I'm flattered by your compliments. Your loyalty should set an example for others, and I am pleased that you have returned to my side so willingly. Not that I would ever expect anything less from you.

[platinum_claws]

Of course not My Queen. I've missed you and I've missed home...being there...muddles the mind. Now that I am home I intend to purge it. I would hate to track things in from their ...'cage'.

[reverse_emperor]

...I wasn't ready yet...

[onlyredroses]

You were more than ready, I'm sure. That side is not worth even another moment of your time.

[reverse_emperor]

They are so naive...why do they insist on living the way they do? It isn't fair at all.

[hamburellakind]

thank you for
letting me go home
your
majesty
or whatever

[onlyredroses]

You're quite welcome. I would not have wanted you as one of my precious Mirrors anyway.

[hamburellakind]

wait
really?
have you seen my mirror?

[onlyredroses]

I have. I think he's rather precious. You could learn a thing or two from him about being less painfully boring.

The trash queen comes out to collect her cute little scum minions. How quaint. Are you actually in charge here or just claiming the role since no one else is stepping up?
