WEEK 1

[whimsicalism]

Well! That was some tea party, huh? You've finally seen the faces (or perhaps the singular is more proper here?) of your captors. A pair of creepy twins seem to fit the overall theme of the Castle at least. Why not have Twiddle Dee and Twiddle Dum, after all?

Regardless, it doesn't seem that they're changing their minds any time soon. The first floor of the Castle is still open up to you. The Audience Hall is still locked most of the time so perhaps you can meet the Alices there if you need to. There are plenty of things to occupy your time before the inevitable slow erosion of your memories. If this is a game, who will make the first move? You or the twins?

Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday | Saturday

((OOC: Welcome to peace week! There will be no case this week so just have fun and explore. If you want to investigate please put Investigation in your top level. Don't forget to put threads in for regains or go to the Audience Hall to meet the Alices.

Also, if you want to keep up to date on things we now have a discord server!))

What do you want to learn? I might be able to help a bit.

[She hesitates a moment before answering, but nothing really to lose, she guesses.]

When I was kidnapped, a part of my wardrobe was apparently deliberately neglected. I was attempting to find anything that might help me learn some kind of leather working to rectify that. It is, unfortunately, a skill I have never had need of until now, and so never bothered to learn.

[rhododendronhoney]

Oh! Well, I do know a bit about working with leather, though I can't make anything too fancy. What do you need?

[littlebratziska]

[She is surprised! But after a moment holds up the switch she'd cut from the tree.]

I'm accustomed to carrying a riding crop. This is the best I've been able to find on short notice, but it's... not quite the same.

[rhododendronhoney]

[...huh. Well, Cori will walk closer to get a better look at said switch.] Oh. You...ride horses a lot?

[littlebratziska]

Occasionally. A crop is simply a very useful tool, with or without horses, however.

[rhododendronhoney]

I guess it could be... [She's a little worried, but on the other hand she figures it's probably a security thing...] I've never used one myself, so I wouldn't know. But I do bet there's some fiction about horses here with pictures we can use as reference.

[littlebratziska]

[Honestly it kinda is, but we shall Not Discuss That, Because Perfect People Do Not Need Such Things.]

Oh! Hm, perhaps! It's as good an idea as any, in any case. I also know the construction fairly well, I have simply never been forced to create one myself.

[rhododendronhoney]

Mm. Well, there's a first time for everything, right? You can help with the structure design, and I can help with the leatherworking.
