On going to entranceway

[childofthemoon]

Shouldn't Wonderland be a little more 'Off with their head' and a little less 'open air looney bin'? Not that I know, I've never been there. [Surprise. Like she ever gets to go anywhere.] Seriously though, the whole thing with the mirror alter egos and the place using my memories for events... Sounds more like a bad movie than a rabbit hole, y'know? Yeah, we all get the irony of how you're sending "Little Red Riding Hood" there, but no one's laughing, y'know.

I mean, I said I wanted to see the world and have adventures, so I guess I can't technically complain. I'm still gonna do it. You really like sending me places without my cloak and without control over the wolf, right? And the fact that you're basically just sending me there so you can turn the other people into fairy tale characters... You're impossible, mun.  

And how is it fair that you're not even looking for a place where I'd have my friends and family? They need me, now more so than ever, and I keep finding and losing them. That's not how things were supposed to go at all...

If muns were at all tolerable, they wouldn't've snatched us up like playthings. Best you can do's grin n' bear it.

'Sides, at least there everything's not tryin' to kill ya.

[childofthemoon]

Yeah, until it is. That place apparently gets all up in your brain, and then stuff happens based on your own personal experiences. Sounds like a 'choose your own adventure' kinda thing, but I'd really rather have no part in other people's nightmares, y'know?

[lovemesomepie]

[Well. Maybe he was wrong. Dean doesn't like things in his head. He can't fight against them. He likes things that bleed, because if they bleed you can kill them. He whistles, purses his lips.]

I mean, I guess if you're lucky, you could get a bad guy's nightmare. Wouldn't that be good for the good guys?

[He drops part of the front, then, looking a little more sincere.]

But I don't envy you any Vulcan Mind-Meld experiences. There's some messed up shit in different worlds, let alone Wonderland. My mun seems to like the - something about Mirrors. Which means they can't be good.

[childofthemoon]

Yeah, mirror alter egos of ourselves? Thanks, but no thanks. Could really do without creepy stuff like that. I mean apparently it's not all bad, and I guess I could have it worse. But I've got a lot to do and to help with back home, and... let's just say, it'd be better for anyone involved if I wasn't there, y'know?

[lovemesomepie]

[Dean knows.] Yeah. Never stopped mine, though. If she can make a situation worse, she will. [She left him a vampire, for Chrissakes.]

But. If you're goin' anyway, innit better to go in guns blazin' than with your tail between your legs?

[childofthemoon]

Don't know about you, cowboy, but I'm not a real fan of eating people.

[That's her equivalent of guns blazing. Tail between her legs is better for everyone involved, seriously.]

[lovemesomepie]

You... [Processing, processing, processi-]

What?

[childofthemoon]

Guns blazin' isn't such a good idea when your guns are teeth. I'd rather have my tail between my legs, but not be a danger. Might keep folks like you from killing me.

[Though God knows she'd deserve it.]

[lovemesomepie]

[Seriously? Why's it always the hot ones that get bitten? Either way, she's not trying to hurt people - just the opposite, in fact - so he's not about to try and hunt her. Not until she proves otherwise, at least.

He wipes a palm across his mouth, then wipes both hands together in front of him.]

Look. M'prolly not the one who should be givin' advice here, but you ever been around wild animals? M'not saying you're not civilized, but they hurt people when they're scared. They don't go out of their way to hurt people on purpose.

Figure people work the same way.

[Mostly. Sometimes. Well. Okay, so he doesn't believe it himself, but what matters is that she believes it, right?]

[jolting]

I've heard of that place. In fact, my mun's been given the suggestion to go there a number of times. Must be a popular spot.

[childofthemoon]

Seriously, at this point I'd be happy about any familiar face. Did your mun tell you they got a dragon there? I don't know if I should be excited or terrified.

[jolting]

It would depend on the type of dragon. Some of them are more tolerable than others, from what I understand.

[childofthemoon]

This one apparently behaves like a cat most of the time. I'm telling you, this place is stock full of weird. And I thought Storybrooke was crazy.

[jolting]

A cat. That's a new one.

[he smiles] Every world has a bit of "weird" in it. Even mine.... Though I suppose that's mostly my own doing.

[childofthemoon]

[It's a smile easily returned.]

Oh yeah? Tell me about it. I've never been places, but I do like me some stories.

[jolting]

If you want a story, you're better off talking with that stranger on the motorcycle... August. He's better at it than I.

All I can tell you is what I've heard. I've heard of places where you train monsters to battle each other; places where you live on a ship that sails through space; places where you must fight in wars; places of magic like ours. And the one you're going to, where you have a mirror self.

[childofthemoon]

Well, the dear Mr. Booth does have a nice leather jacket. [She's teasing. Leather jackets are sexy, but she's content to talk to Whale.]

Okay, out of all those, a ship that sails through space sounds the most exciting and least like bloody murder. Training monsters sounds like dog fights, and... ah, well, let's just say I'm not a fan. [She grins, though. There's nothing like being able to joke about yourself.]

[jolting]

[well he has a lab coat. Doctors are sexy too according to Supernatural]

It does sound better than other options. No, no, I don't blame you. The whole ting sounds barbaric.

[childofthemoon]

[Oh, they are. Ruby'd certainly agree. So would the SPN cast in Eway, which this mun happens to be a part of. This mun would also like to join the ranks of people suggesting the game to you. Ruby'd like a familiar face around.]

So glad you agree. So, what about you, then - gone any terrible places yet?

[jolting]

Not as far as I know. But then, I suppose I'm at the mercy of powers higher than my own.

[childofthemoon]

Aren't we all? And they're not exactly the fairy godmother types of higher powers, these muns.

[jolting]

More along the lines of Regina and Gold.

[childofthemoon]

Good comparison. What with the whole 'their love's a twisted one' thing they've got goin'.

[jolting]

Can't complain too much or they'll just make it worse.

[childofthemoon]

You're telling me. Mine is handing my cloak to an honest-to-God demon. [She stops short, then chuckles. Not that she cares, but that's gotta be the most blasphemous thing she's ever said, and she isn't even gunning for provocation like that anymore.]
