Twenty-Fourth Keychain-[Accidental Voice/Action]

[perplexme]

[so, nobody's really seen Roxas for the past few days/week because he's been hiding out at the lake. Today the blond boy has his feet in the water and he's laying on his back, reading a copy of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and actually relaxing. Or day-dreaming, whichever. Next to him is a small fox who's busy trying to catch a fish, so Roxas is gonna talk to him anyway]

If Alice fell down the rabbit hole, and I fell down the barrier into the forest...and if Alice saw a bunch of weird whimsical things that never existed in her own world, and I'm meeting people and seeing things I've never seen before...and the Queen was trying to more or less torture Alice in her kingdom, and the Malnosso are terrorizing us in their own world...does that make Luceti my own Wonderland?

Kind of messed up, isn't it?

[The fox voices his agreement and Roxas sighs, going back to reading the book instead. Feel free to bother him, really]

[Seems like Roxas isn't the only one out by the lake, because here comes someone else, just wandering along.]

It is not a kind place, an' not where we would wish to be. But dat may not make it your 'Wonderland'.

[perplexme]

(oh hi we've never seen you before. Roxas looks up from the book and tilts his head) What makes you say that?

[andallaretrue.livejournal.com]

Dis is not a place of wonder. It is a place dat has called us here for reasons unknown.

[...yeah, she's from a time before the book was even published, can you tell?]

[voice]

[flaring]

Ah, and now you've forgotten who you are.

[voice]

[perplexme]

Maybe...I'm still waiting to wake up.

[voice]

[flaring]

It's a little disappointing you would go to this extreme just to pity yourself.

[alchemielemon.livejournal.com]

I think Luceti can be called everyone's Wonderland.

However it's not as filled with Wonder as it is lame overseers.

[perplexme]

Suppose that's true enough.

[alchemielemon.livejournal.com]

I prefer to see it more as "A Yankee in King Arthur's Court" kinda situation, eventually we'll find our way out...or rise to power. One of the two.

[martelandmany.livejournal.com]

Ah, I'm... sorry? I'm afraid I'm not familiar with this 'Alice'.

[perplexme]

She's this girl, and Wonderland's a real place. But the book tells the story about her.

[love-me-venus.livejournal.com]

...wow... that's really profound. Except the whole barrier thing. I guess that's what's keeping us in the town and forest?

[perplexme]

I guess so. Probably anyway, it makes sense.

[Voice]

[truthatjunes.livejournal.com]

Heh... I guess that's one way to think of it.

[Voice]

[perplexme]

I don't know if I believe it, but interesting analogy anyway right?

['Sup Roxas, there's gonna be a ninja behind you before you know it!]

That sounds a little insane...

[perplexme]

[doesn't really mind] Why?

[Voiced]

[compos-mentis.livejournal.com]

Not really. This makes it a mudball that you can compare to Wonderland because you're going insane here slowly.

[Voiced]

[perplexme]

Versus Wonderland where you're already insane?

[voice]

[sakushi.livejournal.com]

Interesting analogy.

[voice]

[perplexme]

I thought so anyway, though I think Luceti might be more malicious than Wonderland.

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

What's "Wonderland?" Just like it sounds?

[perplexme]

If by that you mean "it sounds like a place of wonders", then yes. But it's also pretty damn weird. Giant flowers and playing card knights and crazy tyrant queens.

[Flies by, sees him! Hey, long time no see, Roxas! Flies over]

Whatcha reading, Roxas?

[perplexme]

[little fairy buddy! hey! Roxas looked up at him and grins]

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. It's just a story about this girl and this world.
