castle_whims | WEEK 1

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?

((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!))

O-Oh, dear... Are... are people outside the facility mean? [He is. concerned.]

...There's some scary people outside of the facility. But not all of them are bad.

Oh. That's good... [He thinks he understands the full depth of it but. not really. But he doesn't seem to be pushing on the matter of Stella anymore.]

There's one person from outside of the facility who comes to visit sometimes. His name's Mr. Cliff, and he usually plays with us when he's over. It seems like he's known Teacher for a long time.

Aww... He sounds like a very good person. [He went back to being carefree, proceeding with his drawings.]

Yeah, he was nice. It was fun when he came over.

We never get much visitors other than the mailman and Momma's friends. Oh, and Mary!

Mary?

She's a friend to the family. She used to be the new girl in town but I guess she's just... the girl in town now. She taught me words like... "groovy". [He didn't know what a hippie was but! he sure knew the slang!]

So she's like the same age as you?

She is, give or take a year. [He wondered if he should shift the conversation back, but... it's fun hearing Allen talk about his life too.]

She sounds like a nice friend.

[Smiling a little, and writing down some more.]

She is a nice friend. [He had drawn more since the start of Allen's side of the conversation. In particular, next to the green dragon, he placed a drawing of a blue, rotund monster with a long tongue.]

[He does notice that, even with his own writing.]

Who's that?

Oh, these are Four and Five. They're really different but they stay together so much that it surprises even me. They're usually up to trouble but deep down, they're actually nice.

Do they like pranks?

Yes, though I think Five only does it because Four does it. Five has... A lapse in his vocabulary to say the least. If you had to pick the "baby" of the family it would be Five.

Oh... so it's like Five's copying Four?

Uh-huh. [He kneaded his temples.] I... don't think they'd do such a thing as spread butter on the floor, though... [I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M STILL BITTER]

...

That's probably for the best.

[Even he's kind of salty about it.]

Mhm... [Ah, he forgot to color this one part of the next drawing so he'll hurriedly push aside the two drawings and place the sixth one in front of him]

[Allen will also return to his own writing. They can finish up their stuff in silence.]

Dang... [He might have. messed up a part. Hm...] Do you have an eraser?

Uh...

[Looks... at his sparkly gel pen...]

No, I don't. Do you need a new piece of paper?

Yes, please... [Oh well... he can turn the drawing into a paper airplane at least...]
