How very strange.

Hello. I am Alice and I live in London with my sister and parents. Oh! And Dinah, my C-A-T.

Woodland Wonderland || Wendy & Alice

[my-darling-wendy]

Wendy took the bottle from the table and brought it to her lips. Neglecting to take a sip, she removed the magenta glass bottle from her mouth and looked to Alice as she shoved the key in the mouth of the lock. 

"You can do this, Wendy. Alice said it wouldn’t hurt you," Wendy struggled with herself. With a big huff, Wendy filler her lungs with air to prepare to take a drink of the potion. Letting her stomach do a flip, Wendy took a sip. The flavor was tart, then a bit fruity. Overall, the taste reminded her of cranberry sauce that the Darling family always had around Christmas time. The liquid seeped into her tastebuds, and then Wendy started to feel every cell in her body convulse. In a few spurts, Wendy saw her surroundings get larger and larger until Alice was almost as tall as Big Ben. 

Gazing up to Alice, Wendy gave a mischevious look. “Amazing! Alice, you are so tall! I guess I know what Jack felt like when he met the Giant at the top of the beanstalk. Peter would never believe this!”

[curious-alice-curiouser]

Alice successfully silenced the sassy doorknob with the key and then watched in amazement as Wendy shrunk before her eyes. How strange it was to be actually observing shrinking and not experiencing it first hand... She decided it felt rather nice and that she should do it more often.

She got down on all fours and loomed over Wendy, looking at her with her head nearly laying on the ground. "How do you feel?" she asked a bit worried, but Alice was moreover confident that Wendy could handle it. Especially if the stories she told Alice about Neverland were true.

Time for Tea || The White Rabbit & Alice

[late-to-a-very-important-date]

"Hm, I believe I h-have heard of Lun-don before. B-bit of an odd p-place I've heard." He rubbed a piece of thread that was coming out of place on his plush armchair, trying to think of a conversation starter. Never having friends, or social acquaintances or even speaking to the post man, the rabbit was completely out of his comfort zone.

"I believe th-that the main inhabitants of L-lun-don l-look rather like you. All, furless and wi-without leaves."  

[curious-alice-curiouser]

Alice's face contorted a bit when she heard him call London 'an odd place,' but she did suppose it probably was odd if you were a citizen of Wonderland. The idea of logic and fair trials must be a real curiosity to them.

"Why yes, we're called humans. And we come in all sorts of color variations! But where, may I ask, are there any citizens with leaves anywhere?" She asked with a more quizzical look on her features now.

You're not a Rabbit, Idiot || Hiro & Alice

[yo-its-hiro]

Hiro cheerily hopped along the garden. “I just thought: ‘Hey, if this lady is crazy, that must mean she’s like any lunatic Queen in history, and she locks up anyone who seems suspicious or out of place in sight!’ So, may you lead me to her throne room, madam?” The noble boy spun around on his toes, bowing at Alice as if she were royalty. 

"I would be certainly glad if I found my blown up friend, if I do say so myself."

[curious-alice-curiouser]

Alice giggled when he bowed to her and curtsied back saying, "Why yes I would, sir, I'd be more than happy to escort you to the dragon's lair. I do hope you are ready for a battle, she truly is a beast of monstrous proportions."

She went on talking as she began to find her way around the maze, "We should simply follow along the right side of the garden wall, lest we wander for hours... Unless you can think of a better plan that won't including climbing right over, I fear my dress may not like that idea very much at all."

You're not a Rabbit, Idiot || Hiro & Alice

[yo-its-hiro]

Hiro stood there completely silent as Alice spoke and spoke. When she finished, his eyes were wide and looking at no one other than the blonde girl. “Uh- Well-” He shook his head and chuckled nervously before speaking further, “She sounds awful, but um.. is she still around? You don’t think we would get captured by her, do you? That would be horri- ..ble..” 

Hiro caught himself in thought. If this Queen was so hot-headed, and since Baymax always ends in wondering off at anything intruiging to him, that could mean that.. “Yes! Yes that’s it!” The boy hopped up and pounded a fist into his palm before pacing around. “Alice, Alice he could’ve gotten captured by the Queen!”

"Oh, sometimes my mind can really surprise me.."

[curious-alice-curiouser]

Alice looked at Hiro with a most confused look when he paused, a look that soon turned into surprise and concern for his mental health when he started talking again. Then she understood he meant that his friend may have well been captured by the Queen of Hearts, it was very possible after all. Alice really didn't know what became of her after she left.

"Why yes, Hiro, the last time I was here the Queen was very much still in command of her card soldiers, in fact she's the one that chased me out of here with her craziness... How did you come to that conclusion anyhow?"

[yo-its-hiro]

You're not a Rabbit, Idiot || Hiro & Alice

[yo-its-hiro]

He chuckled as Alice told the story of the cards, “Cards painting roses.. this place couldn’t get anymore odd.”

Hiro glanced at the flower she picked, admiring its delicacy. “Wait, she?” The boy crossed his arms and shifted his head in question, “Who is this ‘she’ you speak of?” A lady getting aggressive with cards? This sure will be a treat to tell his friends.

[curious-alice-curiouser]

Alice hummed in agreement to his first statement, she could travel to this place a million times and still find something new to stumble upon... perhaps she should keep a journal one of these days. But she had no paper and pen now so instead she just settled for retelling the story of the queen verbally.

"Why yes, the Queen of Hearts will have nothing other than bright red roses. She's a big old fool who cheats at croquet too, not to mention her temper that's shorter than a blind mouse's tail," Alice gossiped on, not really caring who or what may hear. In fact she had half a mind to believe that most of the citizens of Wonderland would agree with her. 

When she was done she looked up from the rose in her hand to Hiro and shrugged, "Any questions?"

Time for Tea || The White Rabbit & Alice

[late-to-a-very-important-date]

"Oh, um, yes I-I don't often cook. M-my job and, w-well I've just never been around the kitchen much," he smiled awkwardly at the young girl, hoping a less awkward conversation would come out of no-where and hit him. 

He cleaned his glasses of invisible dust before replacing them and inspecting the girl more thoroughly. 

Umm, Alice. I-uh, I don't seem to recall where your f-from. I've done s-soo much travelling lately and..." his words tapered out as his gesturing arms got slower. 

[curious-alice-curiouser]

Alice smiled back at the rabbit and took another sip of her tea before she answered his question. "Aw yes, it was near my home where I first saw you. In fact I even followed you from it all the way to Wonderland!" she chattered excitedly, finally glad that they might have some common ground to start a conversation on.

"I live in England near a very large city called London, have you by chance heard of either of those names?"

There's No Place Like London \\ Alice & Captain Amelia

[tea-cake-the-whole-shebang]

Amelia was quite done with all of the staring nonsense at this point in her journey. Ears twitching in concealed annoyance, she cleared her throat, placing her hands in the small of her back. “Captain actually.” she corrected, giving a curt nod. 

The two of them stood there for what seemed like a long time to Amelia with no talking, Amelia’s furrowed brow contrasting the girl’s own gaping expression. Feeling awkward, she began to get hot under her fur at her unwavering stare. “Alright that’s enough of the staring.” Amelia blurted, quickly in a jumble of words, hoping to break the silence. 

[curious-alice-curiouser]

Alice curtsied once more saying, "Yes, miss... er captain." She then went on her way never to meet the mysterious captain again. Perhaps she shouldn't stray too far from her father after all.

[tea-cake-the-whole-shebang]

There's No Place Like London \\ Alice & Captain Amelia

Oh tish tosh! Amelia huffed to herself as she paced down the streets of a somewhat 1860’s styled London, 

Like these civilians have never seen an intergalactic alien being before! 

Walking up to a finely dressed man in uniform on the street who appeared to be of somewhat authority, she placed her hands in the small of her back, addressing him. “Excuse me, good sir. Would you perchance know where I could find the docks, hmm?” 

Staring in awe at the tall, feline woman, the policeman merely pointed in the general direction. Nodding, Amelia looked off for a ways, using her cat-like eyes, and could see rippled glow on the buildings. “Ah yes. Thank you my good man.” 

Finally making it down to the docks, Amelia sucked in the salty sea air. Not as enjoyable to her as the star dust filled, non atmospheric air of her beloved space, but welcoming all the same. 

Strutting onto the docks Amelia posted herself, looking up and down the stretch of ships and boats as many shorter people scurried about around her. Feeling increasingly panicked Amelia took a step further to start pacing up and down the docks when she felt herself bump into another body. 

"Oh my- … I am sorry young lady, er. Many apologies. I am quite rushed so if you wouldn’t mind stepping out of my way…"

[curious-alice-curiouser]

Alice leisurely strolled down the boat docks, her father had told her to stay in eyesight but she always just thought parents said that just to say it. What possible trouble could a little girl get into in a place full of strange men much bigger and stronger than her? The worst that could happen is that Alice would fall in. But then again that danger was present while she was on the boats, when visiting the beach, and even while filling up the tub to wash!

Of course as Alice thought of all these reasons as to why she would have to stay close to her father, and then delved deeper still into places where she was exposed to the danger of water, she was not watching where she was going. Instead she walked on and looked at her scuffed Mary Janes while her face was contorted in thought. She failed to even notice the people about her gasping and murmuring to each other.

"Well now if that's the case, I may as well not feed my goldfish, lest I blow bubbles above the water like Clementine!" She spoke to herself right before being knocked harshly out of her stupor. Spotting the pants right away she grabbed her skirts and curtsied, not bothering to look up. "Excuse me, sir." 

But then she heard the voice that clearly did not belong to a sir and trailed her eyes up the long legs to the creature's face and all she could do is stare with her jaw hanging open, her vocal chords made not even a squeak.

Baby Its Cold Outside|| Alice & Olaf

[myveryownpersonalflurry-deactiv]

"I’m sure its quite nice in the Summer and Springtime." Olaf walked over next to the girl and plopped down. "Winters nice too when its not that cold outside. And if you’re dressed warmly." He grinned at the blonde.

Nodding his head in agreement Olaf got up to check outside again. “Hey! I think the wind is dying down outside and the snows slowing down too.” He turned around to look at his new friend. For a minute he was strongly reminded of the time when it was Anna in front of the fire and not Alice. Thank goodness the girl wasn’t freezing from inside like Anna had been. “Are you sure you want to go outside? Its still pretty cold.” His voice and face was laced with concern as he looked at the girl.

[curious-alice-curiouser]

Alice looked at Olaf from the corner of her eye, trying hard to be serious but failing. So stifling a laugh she replied back, "I do not know what you mean, I feel like this is appropriate clothing for the weather we're having. Don't you?" By the last word she was in an outright fit of laughter... perhaps the cold has gotten to her sanity.

When she had finished her laughing fit and brought her sides back down from orbit, Alice looked outside again and finally answered him, "Well, obviously it could either get better or, well, worse. I suppose we should go with spirits held high and hope for the former."

With curious adventure in her eyes, she met his eye contact once more, "Would you like to join me on a quest for warmer lands?"

Time for Tea || The White Rabbit & Alice

[late-to-a-very-important-date]

The rabbit put together her tea and then his own. Sitting down in his favorite faux velvet chair and took a slow sip of his tea, red eyes closing behind thick glasses. When he came back to Earth-er, Wonderland, he raised an eyebrow that Alice was not eating. 

"The food is f-fine in case you were concerned. No poison, n-no mushrooms either," he stated plainly, gesturing to the tray. "Just amateur baking skills. I normally have m-my chef prepare the food b-but I have been trying my hand at cooking."

He settled back into his chair, realizing he had subconsciously began to hunch forward in his explanation. The White Rabbit cleared his throat and took a shorter, more awkward sip of his tea.   

[curious-alice-curiouser]

Alice thanked the White Rabbit and took sips of her own tea, making this the first time she was ever able to drink any tea in Wonderland. It was well made and pleasantly sweet, and to her relief didn't cause her to grow even a centimeter. She was still a little weary of the cakes, but decided to test one out for herself after he assured her of them.

She took a careful nibble and, after waiting a few seconds, ate the rest in normal bites. "You made these yourself? I would have never guessed as they are very delicious. N-no offense, of course, its just I never pictured you the baking type."

Alice then busied her in sipping her tea, terribly afraid that she might have offended the White Rabbit.

Wandering into Wonderland || Alice & Vitani

[vitaniofthepridelands-blog]

Vitani just blinked and looked at her. Okay, this was getting on her nerves. She was underground not five seconds ago, and now this girl was saying that she had never heard of the Pridelands… What exactly was going on here?

The lioness considered her surroundings. This was defninitely not what she had expected when she woke up this morning. None of this was possible…unless this was a dream, which she very much doubted.

What really struck a nerve was the girl’s inability to keep her mouth shut. Or give her any answers as to how she could get back home. “What do you mean, ‘how did I swim that distance?’” she asked, glaring. “Weren’t you listening to what I said, you little brat? I won’t be giving any pet of yours anything, now tell me where I can leave this place.” She growled, thorougly fed up.

[curious-alice-curiouser]

Alice gasped and took a step back, "A brat? I am not a brat! And why should I help you leave Wonderland if you are going to have that attitude. There is no need to be rude, you know." If Alice was going to accomplish anything today, she would teach a lioness some manners even if it killed her.

But thinking back on that idea and examining both the lioness's claws and teeth she decided to just turn on her heel and walk the other way. Alice didn't like walking away from a challenge, but quarreling with large predator was a little different than a schoolyard discussion with Ada and Mabel.

Time for Tea || The White Rabbit & Alice

[late-to-a-very-important-date]

"Oh? Oh, Alice, y-yes Alice of course. N-now I remember.." he said, voice trailing off as he walked further into his little house. "T-take a seat, d-dear. Not literally of c-course, but you are we-welcome to sit down." He made his way into his little kitchen and brought out a platter of food. There was a small brass tea pot in the center that was adorned by little frosted cakes all around. 

"D-do you like sugar and c-cream or none?"

[curious-alice-curiouser]

Alice perched herself rather lady like on a comfy little chair, very little indeed for it was rabbit sized, and smoothed out her skirts as she looked around and waited. She needn't wait long, though, as the White Rabbit was quick to return with a tray. She didn't realize when she first was invited in, but upon seeing the cakes she found herself rather hungry.

"I'll take both sugar and cream, please. Thank You."  

She looked at the little confections almost eagerly, but Alice knew it was better to wait to be offered one. The last time she ate something in this house she had grown so big that everyone thought the only way out was through the chimney!

[curious-alice-curiouser]

Baby Its Cold Outside|| Alice & Olaf

[myveryownpersonalflurry-deactiv]

Olaf was glad that his new friend wasn’t cold anymore. He really hoped that he could help as much as he could and however he could.

His eyes widened rather comically as he listened to her. “Woah! Wonderland!” His gaze snapped to the only window in the small shack, at the raging winds outside. “It must be a very wonderful place to be named Wonderland!” He said, his voice still laced with excitement. 

He nodded, his nose almost bobbing up and down with the motion. “Yeah! There are so many different things out there! So many many many many many MANY new places!”

[curious-alice-curiouser]

Alice looked out the window with Olaf, nodding her head in agreement. "Yeah, but right now it seems to only be a WINTER Wonderland... a lot colder than I remembered it..." The last time Alice had visited it was all sunshine and rainbows, plenty of warmth to go around.

"As soon as the snow stops, we should probably head out and find better shelter or even a warmer hiding place. It's very nice in here now, and you've done such a wonderful job with the fireplace, but the firewood will run out eventually. We can't very well live here our whole lives."

[curious-alice-curiouser]

Alice (and Snow White for that matter) are finally back from hiatus, although they're still getting back into the swing of things. So don't be alarmed if things are a little slow to start out with.

I rewatched the 1968 version of Night of the Living Dead and couldn't resist drawing Alice dressed like Barbara. Hopefully she doesn't meet the same fate though...

[curious-alice-curiouser]

Looks like you've managed to avoid being bitten. Stay safe out there! Things are starting to get grim.

Alice laid on the floor flipping through a book while the radio droned on in the background. She wasn’t really paying it much attention though, for it was playing the news and for whatever reason her parents wouldn’t let her change it to a different station. ‘Waiting to make sure this is a hoax’ they said or something along those lines.

It made no matter to Alice though, for she didn’t really know what they were talking about nor did she particularly care at the moment. She was still rather fuming that she had to be locked in this room on her holiday away from school when she could instead be out enjoying everything and eating good food. As of late, they hadn’t left the location they were staying at and were eating canned foods.

Freshly cooked peas were bad enough much less canned ones, and Alice could go nowhere to escape the smell of overdone carrots.

"Civil Defense authorities have told newscasters," the scratchy voice on radio announced, but Alice still did not care. She cared so little in fact that she began to hum to see if she could block out what he was saying, and it seemed to work rather well. But her parents were hanging off every word that the announcer said, absorbing the information with wide eyes and slacked jaws.

Alice looked at her parents confused, why were they not paying any mind to her and her pouting? Did they not care about her childlike enjoyment? 'They want me to have a boring childhood too,' she thought. 'What could possibly be so important?'

So she decided to listen to herself, but it seemed like she only managed to snag the last bit of information as the announcer was bringing the news to a close. "Reports that have been verified as completely, as is possible in this situation, to be true. It is happening. Medical authorities in London have concluded that in all cases," the announcer paused, perhaps to draw suspense and to emphasize, but then continued almost as if he didn’t believe was he was saying himself. "The killers are eating the flesh of the people they murdered."

[curious-alice-curiouser]

Oh no is right, it seems a sort of epidemic is happening around the world but luckily Alice has managed to evade the first wave of infections while on a holiday with her parents. Due to both these events, Alice will have to put any current adventures she has on hold until the whole thing blows over.

This means I will not be replying to any threads, in group or indie, until the event is over at the beginning of November it seems. (Unless its a thread in the AU of course!)  Sorry for any inconvenience, but I'm still open to plotting for when this is all over though!
