“But then you really are celebrating every day! I was right! If you’re celebrating three hundred and sixty-four Unbirthdays and then a real birthday that’s…” Tamaki proceeded to count upon his fingers, despite the fact there’s no way in Hell you could count up to 365 with just 10 fingers and the fact that it was just one number extra. “Three hundred and sixty-five days of celebrating, which is a year!”

[mercury-lining-blog]

A revelation! A realisation! Hatter's eyes light up figuratively as he ponders this new revelisation, turning it around in his head.

"By Hearts, you're absolutely correct! No wonder March Hare and Dormouse and I are always celebrating! I was wondering, to be honest."

He reaches out and grabs the man's hand, shakes it, then decides to pour some tea.

"Three-hundred and sixty-four days plus one equals three-hundred and sixty-five cele-day-tions!"

[theouranking-deactivated2013041]

What could Tamaki do aside from frolic beneath streams of coloured paper and dust? 

“Hooray! Unbirthday? Does that mean you celebrate every day? That sounds like fun!”

[mercury-lining-blog]

"Oh, don't be daft."

Hatter blows the party blower once more, then places it in his pocket.

"One couldn't possibly celebrate an Unbirthday every day! That would be mad!

There are only 364 Unbirthdays per year—and 365 on leap years—on which to celebrate!"

Only the Hatter would disregard the celebration that occurs on one's birthday when discussing one's Unbirthday.

[theouranking-deactivated2013041]

♕ - - “EH?”

“When I asked for a surprise for my birthday… I did not mean this!”

“This is officially the worst birthday ever. I didn’t even get a cake!”

[mercury-lining-blog]

Confetti! Hats! Party blowers! Hatter had all of these in his hat, for some reason!

"A very merry Unbirthday to me! And a very happy birthday to you!"

He could do nothing but watch in confusion as the man walked a block away before sitting down again and…did he just pull a teapot from his hat?

“Wh…What guests? You’re the only one there, for crying out loud!”

[mercury-lining-blog]

"That's a lie!"

Hatter scolds the man before him, waggling a finger condescendingly. How dare he tell untruths? And such blatant ones! Goodness, it's as if he wasn't even attempting to try to truthfully speak!

"Why, you're here, and you certainly aren't no one! Close to it, mind you, but regardless, still not nobody!"

Suddenly, the man started walking away, claiming it was time for tea, because he’d finished his Tea Time. Which made no sense.

“Wh-You just finished ‘Tea Time’,are you some tea fanatic? Oh man, why do I get stuck talking to the crazies?” he muttered to himself.

[mercury-lining-blog]

Hatter pulls out his pocket watch and shows it to the man. The hands on the face point to 6 o' clock, indicating that it is indeed time for tea.

"Now if you'll excuuuuse me, I must be off for tea! I would invite you, of course, but there is simply no room! I've far too many guests planning to attend!"

He then sits on a random curb and begins pouring out some more tea.

“Thank you. I suppose I prefer sweet things over those that are bitter.”

He wasn’t sure yet what he preferred, as he hadn’t truly experienced anything. The fact that as soon as he came to in this city he was able to try things he hadn’t was amazing to him.

“It’s surprising that just a few extra things can change the taste of one object.”

[mercury-lining-blog]

"Yes, most people do! I can enjoy any type of tea—it's an advantage of enjoying so frequently! Unfortunately, one might not have access to all the resources one needs, so one learns to improvise!"

Here, Hatter would love to create tea from some random object around, but he already has tea, so he figures that would be a waste.

"Anyway—yes, very small things can have outlandishly large effects! That is certainly true! Just ask Alice Liddell! She knows how it works directly!"

…Well damn.

He had a point there. There wasn’t even any evidence to disprove his theory. He decided to just go with it. Eccentric as he was, Hatter seemed to be very knowledgeble as well as seeming to know more than he let on.

“I…I just you’re right. I can’t disprove it, so I have no choice but to take your word for it.”

[mercury-lining-blog]

"Well then, I suppose I have no choice but to allow you to take those words. Do be sure to leave me a few! I wouldn't want to sit around without any access to a vocabulary, after all!"

Hatter finishes off his tea and slams the cup down onto the ground.

"Tea Time is done! It's time for tea!"

And then he stands up and starts walking away.

Junpei was decidedly NOT prepared for the sudden glove to the face, nor the verbal lashing that immediately followed. ‘What’s his problem?!’

“Dude, what the hell?! Calm down! I’m just saying if you came from a book that technically makes you fictional in our world. 

[mercury-lining-blog]

"That means your world's George Washington and Benjamin Franklin and Abraham Lincoln must also be fictional, as books have been written about them as well! I know; I've read them!

Or is it that the books were written about their completely true, completely real life?"

Hatter grins.

"As was Alice's Adventures in Wonderland!"

[needtosellthneed-blog]

That was when I ruled the world [OPEN]

[needtosellthneed-blog]

Oh, forget I asked.

[The top hatted men were both growing irritated with each other. Both believed they were in the right—and both were eccentric in their own way. It proved to be a dastardly combination.

The Warden smirks.]

With all due respect, hatter, I have every reason to be confident.

[mercury-lining-blog]

"Forget you asked what, exactly?"

Already forgotten, hatted acquaintance! Hatter has no time for remembering trivial things like what recently happened in a conversation! How silly!

But he can tell something is amiss. The other wears a wonderful hat, but he's far from the perfect pal! He's so argumentative! Quite unlike March Hare and Dormouse on their good days—and quite like them on their bad!

When the man claimed to be reasonably confident, Hatter grins. He doesn't mind either way, honestly.

"Of course! Of course you are!"

So much for that idea. 

“I get it…but why conjure a fictional character out of a book? I mean, what kind of motive are they gunning for that they need someone from a book?”

The bigger question was not “Why?” but “How?” 

[mercury-lining-blog]

Hatter looks deadpanly at the man in front of him. He looks at some random passerby and points at the other.

"Is he serious right now?"

He then turns, grabs a glove from his pants pocket, and slaps the man in the face.

"I am not a fictional character! How dare you!? Obviously I'm real, if I'm here and now!"

It seems due to some technical glitch half of the housing list for Sector 6 has been deleted. This is a big problem for us because it means we can’t keep track of housing for about thirty or more members, and needs to be fixed as soon as possible!

Please spread the word. 

If your character was housed in any apartment from O-6 to Z-6 or Sector Zeta, please send the masterlist a message with their housing, and if you remember, their roommates!

Thank you so much, we’re sorry for the trouble!

“Oh, so you’ve read i-wait did you just say you’re the hatter from the book?!”

This was getting more and more ridiculous. He just wanted out. He mentally prayed that this was all just one bad, bad dream caused by Yukari’s cooking.

“Uh…I have to ask, but…can’t you just hop back in your book?”

[mercury-lining-blog]

"The very same!"

Hatter grins proudly at the man's recognition. He knew he was the main character, otherwise who would remember him? When the other suggests returning to Wonderland through literature, Hatter's grin drops as he ponders.

"Well... as I said, the book is about me. Not of me. I can't return that way any more so than you could were I to write a book about you and your world!

Does that make sense? I surely hope so, as I'm not about to repeat myself."

“Wonderland…what, like that book about that girl…?”

As fed up with the man’s useless ramblings, the name “Wonderland” sounded familiar…

[mercury-lining-blog]

"The book was obviously about the Hatter! The girl—Alice, by the way—was obviously a minor side-character at most!"

Hatter grins, recalling having found his own story at the library here. Mr. Carroll certainly wrote well. Especially when it came to Hatter's own personality. That was perfectly crafted!

“Wh-“

“Aaa, never mind. Just…can you tell me how to get out of this city? Please?”

[mercury-lining-blog]

"The only way out is up!"

Hatter points down towards the ground, looks at his finger, then twists his hand upwards. He actually has no idea how to leave, so he just gave his best guess.

"At least, that's how one leaves Wonderland! I assume it's similar!"

“What do you mean, ‘being better’?”

He wanted to just walk away-hell, he KNEW the man was trying to provoke him-but at this point, he couldn’t give a damn.

“Okay, Mister Hatter”, if you’re provoking me for a fight, you’ve got it!”

[mercury-lining-blog]

Hatter giggles. How silly!

"Oh, you brute! I don't want to touch you, quite frankly! Please go away! No room! No room! No vacancy!

I'm afraid there's no room at this Tea Party, so you simply must go somewhere else!"

“Oh alright the-wait you just did it again!”

He felt himself growing impatient with the eccentric man. He was trying to find out where he was so he could get OUT of this place,damnit!

“Look, I have more important things to do, I don’t have time to listen to you insult me,okay?”

[mercury-lining-blog]

"Alright! Goodbye!"

Hatter waves the man away as he focuses his attention back on his tea. He doesn't mind—he'd rather not have to shout anyway. And with all the wax built up in this man's ear, he certainly would have to.

"If you'd rather not be insulted, I would suggest being better! But for now, so long! Ta ta! Have a frabjous day!"
