All Hail the Queen

[whimsicalism]

[An hour passes in this strange place. There's silence for a few moments. Then loud talking starts.]

They don't seem to like me... [A young girl's voice, timid and small despite the fact that everyone can hear her.]

Does it matter? If we act like the sun or the north wind, it's no skin off our backs. [A second voice answers... the same voice? Could she just be talking to herself?] You are the Queen. All ways are your ways.

Yes. Alice is the Queen.

[At this statement, the doors quickly open. As the Queen's note said there's a large table filled with tea and sweets in the middle of the audience hall. There's even chairs for everyone. Far from the ground on an balcony is a large throne. On the throne is a young girl, with a small fluffy cat in her lap. The girl smiles briefly.]

I'm Alice the Queen.

[The cat jumps on the railing of the balcony to stare dispassionately at the gathered group before jumping on the throne herself. Within a few seconds a copy of the Queen is sitting next to her, dressed in black.]

And I'm Alice the Chesire Cat. Welcome to our Castle. [There's a dryness to the Cat's voice that is missing from the Queen's.]

I'm sure we can answer your questions! Come, it's time for Alice's Tea Party! Let's begin, Alice.

[Welcome to Wonderland.]

((OOC: It's alright to still respond to the IC intro post and there will backtagging from myself in this post if needed.))

...I will not feel better about it. I don't care if it's for adults, it's something I've always cared about. Why would it being "adult stuff" even matter?

[twinverses]

You'd just start a war.

[caligulass]

...and?

[twinverses]

[They look at each other, then:]

That's bad.

[Creepy twin double speak time, then.]

[caligulass]

...

And?

[twinverses]

We forbid you.

But my people need far better resources than what they have.

...

And they also need to stop being overrun by nightmares.
