[VERY LOUD] SOMEBODY SAVE MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-

[SUP, DOROTHY, WE AREN’T IN KANSAS ANYMORE. Pause. Pause. Pauuuuuuuse. Deep, even breaths.]

Did…am I back in the book? A different chapter, perhaps, but-

[Do you hear that? The garish carnival music? Because Kid does. No deep, even breaths this time, but rather a sharp intake of breath as he beholds

Prison, actually. But we'll accept your answer for partial credit.

[Voice;]

[symmetrygasm]

Prison. Lovely.

And what would the credit go toward?

[Voice;]

[prefers_chess]

Your final score. Continue to show display levels of intuition and you may even earn yourself a medal in the final rankings.

[Voice;]

[symmetrygasm]

Final rankings as determined by whom?

1/5

[sparkling_by]

Considering my angelic self is present, if we have to be ---

[sparkling_by]

...dead...

[sparkling_by]

...DEAD...

[sparkling_by]

...DEAD!

[deathofdelilah]

You must be new.

[symmetrygasm]

New to where, exactly?

[deathofdelilah]

The City. The place where you're currently standing.

[symmetrygasm]

...Unoriginal name. What else can you tell me?

[ms_marycontrary]

...book?

Well, it's possible that you're from a story book...All of the Alices here are kind of from the story, I guess.

What book are you from?

[symmetrygasm]

Story book... [PARDON HIM MERRY, HE'S GOING TO CHUCKLE DARKLY TO HIMSELF FOR A LITTLE BIT]

I am not from a book- I suppose you could say I am a captive of one. Or was, in any case.

[ms_marycontrary]

[That did not make any sense to her so she will not bother to ask. Yet.]

Oh. Well...Rudy is always saying that we're captives here in the City, but it's really not that horrible...or at least, I don't think so.

SO LATE SORRY

[symmetrygasm]

No? How long have you been in residence?

Best surprise-coming-back-off-hiatus gift ever!!!

[mytechskeeper]

[Blinkblink, give her a moment it's been forever since she's seen any friends from home that didn't disappear after 24 hours, but she knows that voice, and this isn't a curse so...]

...Kid? Kid is that really you?!

Awwww! <3

[symmetrygasm]

[OH HAY. PERKING UP JUST A LITTLE.]

Tsubaki?

[mytechskeeper]

[She'll inwardly berate herself for being a little happy about this later, but for now, yay!]

Yes it's me, are you okay? The deities didn't drop you in the fountain did they? They have a habit of doing that to arrivals.

[symmetrygasm]

[DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWW, SHE'S SO CUTE]

I'm well enough, I suppose. Out of the book, if what everyone says is true.

Ah, no. I'm near a hideous carousel.
