I. Welcome to Wonderland!
Seconds ago you were surrounded by the things you know, but now you may find yourself standing on a strange beach. And you may find yourself in another part of another world. And you may find yourself within the shadow of a large mansion. And you may find yourself in a beautiful room, with a completely useless introductory brochure. And you may ask yourself: Well... how did I get here?

II. Lose yourself to find yourself
It's another day in Wonderland, and another event has come around. For its duration everyone has been turned into a stereotypical ghost. Disembodiment, translucency, and all it entails! Have fun moving through objects and walls, because actually touching a door (or interacting with any other physical objects for that matter)? Not going to happen.

III. Mirror, Mirror, On The March
Aren't you excited? Aren't you thrilled? The Queen of Hearts has chosen you amongst a mere handful, and sent you off to the other side. Whether you infiltrate quietly, or barge in boldly is entirely up to you. Her Majesty has faith in your skill, she knows you will retrieve her treasured Shield from that bothersome Red Queen and her hideous Reals. You will, won't you? You really mustn't disappoint your Queen, or else... OR ELSE.

IV. Wildcard
Play out your character's arrival. Celebrate their anniversary. Choose a different event to experience. Do anything and everything you like!

Ash ↴ Supernatural

[This is not where Ash had been trying to go.

Nevermind the fact that he hadn't been trying to go anywhere specific and had, in essence, been trying to cheat the system, sort of like a metaphysical version of wallhacking. There are Heavens he's still trying very hard to find, and he'd been attempting to cut to the chase. But this... really doesn't fit any of them. Not unless someone had had a Song of the South fetish that they'd been trying really hard to bury.

He's out of chalk, as he gets to his feet, and he can't even see the damn door he'd come out of, but at least the Holy Hitting Squad hasn't found him. They're probably getting sick of him running around, but damned if they can't catch him. Maybe nobody with enough juice is paying attention, but Ash will take it. This, though? The mansion, and the grounds he's standing on? He's not really sure about this.]


Aw, hell. Please tell me this isn't some kinda southern Civil War gig. Wasn't on my bucket list to sip a mint julep with Stonewall Jackson...
ofletters: (and after the storm)

YOOOOOO

[personal profile] ofletters 2015-02-02 03:12 am (UTC)(link)
[ This isn't where anyone tries to go, Ash. Luckily, or unluckily, depending on who you ask, there are dozens of other people wandering the same halls of Wonderland as the long-deceased techie. Sam Winchester is one of them, jogging by with two dogs in tow and looking a Hell of a lot older than when Ash last saw him. In fact, it's been almost eight years since their last meeting, and though he's seen a lot of other "dead people" since coming to the mansion, this one really takes him by surprise. Sam actually stumbles, eyes wide and totally floored as the two puppies skid to a halt ahead of him. ]

Ash?

HELLO

[personal profile] coolwithit 2015-02-02 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
[Needless to say, Ash never really expected to find Sam Winchester while attempting to cheat his way to a Heaven he didn't know the angel radio coordinates of. Last time he checked, Sam Winchester wasn't dead. And when that happens, Ash usually knows about it pretty quickly. The angels don't shut up about it.

And some of them are pretty rude.]


Sam?

[This isn't right. This can't be Sam's Heaven. Why would Sam's heaven have a giant mansion? ...although he knows from experience — experiences chasing down dead Winchesters — that the dogs are accurate.]

Hey. Uh. What's up?

[Help.]
ofletters: (Default)

[personal profile] ofletters 2015-02-04 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
[ No, not dead... for once. Surprise!! ]

Damn, man, it's good to see you! [ BRO HUG, INCOMING... ! ] Are you-- I mean, did you come from...?

[ You know, that place? Where things are terrible? ]

[personal profile] coolwithit 2015-02-07 01:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[A rare living Winchester. Holy crap. Ash frowns and resists the urge to poke at Sam and make sure he's real. He does take a lot of questionable things in his Heaven. But instead, he'll accept a hug.]

Heaven? Yeah.

[His face clearly says where else would I be from?]

You didn't sneak past angel radio or somethin', did you?
ofletters: (speaking words of wisdom)

[personal profile] ofletters 2015-02-09 04:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Very rare. And very... older than when Ash last saw him. ][ And he isn't the only one, but Sam won't say that yet. ] This is Wonderland, as in, Alice and the Queen of Hearts. It's pretty... wacky, and is usually like being in a big acid trip, or something, but it's real.

[ He shrugs. ]

As real as the rest of our crazy lives, I mean.

[personal profile] coolwithit 2015-02-16 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
That's pretty crazy, Sam. [Their lives do kind of win most Crazy Life contests back home. Ash considers.] So, what, did we fall down the rabbit hole? Are we gonna lose our heads if we stay here?

[Valid questions, Ash thinks. He's a little fuzzy on the original stories but he definitely remembers the Queen of Hearts trying to take off everyone's head.]

I thought I was fishing too far into Heaven, but this is ridiculous.
ofletters: (and in my hour of darkness)

[personal profile] ofletters 2015-02-19 05:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Everything we do is crazy. [ And Ash knows that just as well as he does. ] Uh-- No, I mean, I don't think that's happened so far. We do have the Jabberwocky to worry about, but--

[ urk ]

... Anyway. Yeah, this is pretty much the home of everything ridiculous.

[personal profile] coolwithit 2015-02-22 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
Guess it's only fitting we go somewhere that our crazy doesn't look too bad, huh?

[ Despite the tone of the conversation, Ash is practically smirking with amusement. He can roll with the punches. Maybe he wouldn't have as easily a few years ago, but a lot changes after you explore Heaven. There's some crazy shit there. Sam knows what he means.

Also some people choose really messed up memories to get 'stuck' in. Why can't people just choose a bar and chill out? Or something nice? ]


Don't tell me. Dean's here, too?
ofletters: (Default)

[personal profile] ofletters 2015-02-25 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I was surprised, actually. But it hasn't been too bad.

[ Which is... the real surprise, considering their lives. ]

You got it. And Jo. Ellen was here, but she's not... right now, away.
lightgunhustler: (025)

BRUH

[personal profile] lightgunhustler 2015-02-02 03:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[She'd have known his voice absolutely anywhere. Maybe it was just dumb luck that put her around the corner when Ash landed, or maybe it was something with a little more purpose, but it didn't really matter. It takes a moment or two for things to click, process, and then she hits the ground at a run, tearing around the corner to see that yes, it really was him, here and in one piece and a sight for sore eyes after more than four years.]

Oh my god, Ash.

:D

[personal profile] coolwithit 2015-02-03 09:32 am (UTC)(link)
[He doesn't even need to see who it is because, like her, he knows Jo's voice when he hears it, and turns in her direction.]

Jo!

[Has he finally done it? Has attempting to cheat the system really worked and he's finally found where the youngest Harvelle's Heaven is? But Ash isn't going to question it too much, just yet, and grins in her direction. If this worked in any way, it was worth the potential cost (namely, getting lost in goddamn Heaven) in spades.]

You are a sight for sore eyes, lemme tell you.
lightgunhustler: (038)

[personal profile] lightgunhustler 2015-02-11 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[If anyone was going to cheat the system, Jo knows it would have to be Ash, and even she'll admit that Wonderland is probably as close to Heaven as she wants to be-- but it falls just short of the mark of the most traditional definition of the word. Still, she likes it better than what it's supposed to be back home-- spending the rest of time alone? Even stuck in her fondest memories, she's not sure she's here for it.

She grins right back at him, having halted to a stop just long enough to get a good look at him before she lunges herself forward, throwing her arms around his middle.

Four years is way, way too long.]


I could say the same about you! Here I was thinking I was never gonna get the chance to see you again.

[Sometimes it's nice to be proven wrong.]

[personal profile] coolwithit 2015-02-16 06:29 am (UTC)(link)
[Ash squeezes her back. She's pretty much the little sister he'd never had, and she was in his top five people to look for. Near the top. Maybe she is the top, come to that. He's found a lot of strange Heavens looking for hers. Unlike a certain duo, he hasn't been able to rely on Angel Radio for Jo's location.]

Well, I'm here. And you're gonna have to try real hard to get rid of me.

[There's just one thing. He should be having to explain himself. She should be confused about him being here, like every other Heaven he goes into. And this place is just—]

Where are we, anyhow?
lightgunhustler: (025)

[personal profile] lightgunhustler 2015-02-28 06:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Good-- that's good.

[It's also not a promise she knows he can make, but they're not getting into that now. There's no reason to detract from how happy she is to see him, and she gives him another tight squeeze before she lets go, enough that they can converse, although she doesn't go far, one arm still slung loosely around his shoulders. Much like she's the little sister he never had, Ash had been the one to make her feel like she wasn't an only child after all. Closest thing she'd ever had to a brother until this place.]

You might need a beer or two in you in order to believe me, but I guess if anyone was gonna take this kind of thing on faith, it'd be you. You've looked into alternate dimensions, right?

[She knows he's looked into all kinds of things most hunters never bothered with.]

[personal profile] goesdown 2015-02-03 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
It's so much better than that.

[Crowley eyes the man with a somewhat judging look, but that might just be Crowley's face. This man doesn't look like much to Crowley, but Wonderland had taught him to not underestimate anyone and, really, that had been something he'd kept in mind even before he came here. ]

On a scale of one to ten, how many drugs have you done?

[personal profile] coolwithit 2015-02-03 09:37 am (UTC)(link)
[Ash has a certain amount of fucks to give, and he isn't sure that he's ready to give one to a judgy little dude in a suit who... well, he really doesn't fit this place, but maybe it's a really old memory. Before the suit.

But hey, if this is his Heaven, he can hang. At least until he can get his bearings and find something else to write with and get the hell out of here.]


Winners don't do drugs, my friend.

[There's a funny little curve of his lips, right at the corner, that says exactly how much he's joking. He doesn't tend to grin with his whole face.]
goesdown: (Mercifully taking her mother along)

[personal profile] goesdown 2015-02-06 08:27 pm (UTC)(link)
A lot of professional athletes and musicians would disagree with you.

[ Crowley smirks. For some reason, explaining this place to people has actually started to entertain him. ]

You're in Wonderland. Like the books.

[personal profile] coolwithit 2015-02-07 01:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[He can't help but stare at the odd little dude with, okay, a decent sense of humor, but still. The guy's having him on. He's in some weird Heaven. It's probably his, and for some reason his Heaven is an imaginary place from a book.

Christ, he hopes Wonderland isn't real.]


Seriously? [Pause.] Not quite as, uh, psychedelic as I'd pictured.

[Why not. Ash can play along, until he figures out just what's going on.]
