I. Second Time's The Charm
This... this looks awfully familiar, and... familiar in an awful way. Look around all you like, it won't change, it won't go away. You are in Wonderland. No, worse: You're back in Wonderland. Just when everything was nice and comfortable at home, or-- or wasn't it? Maybe you're happy to be here again. Hey, no judgement, free room and board is nothing to scoff at! Blessing or curse, that's really up to you; all you know for sure is that, apparently, you're here to stay.

II. What will you children do next?
It's time for another wonderful event in Wonderland! For its duration characters will suddenly find themselves ten years older or younger. This can be physically, mentally, or both, i.e., if your character is 20 years old right now, they may become 10 physically but still have the mind and memories of their 20-year-old self, or they may revert to the mentality of their 10-year-old self and lose all the memories they have of being older. Characters over 200 years old may even age by a century, as a decade isn't that long for them.

III. Through The Looking-Glass
What an extraordinary day! All of Wonderland's mirrors-- just the things, not the capital Mirrors, not the ones like you --are suddenly shattered! Shards on the floor as far as the eye can see, and empty frames that are just begging to be stepped through! Oh, but you should really stay on your side unless the Queen of Hearts orders it otherwise. Or should you? Who's to say she wouldn't want you to investigate? Go ahead, go on, explore the real side for a change! Or... stay put right where you are, and see who comes to visit. It's really up to you.

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

[She yelps. Not only has she been caught looking totally and completely helpless--but also, there's a cat talking to her. If it weren't for the Lilliputtians, she'd think she was having some sort of odd dream.]

Um, get away from me, you weird talking cat!! I'm--are you some sort of monster?!

Ugh, knowing my life, you're definitely some kind of monster.

[The cat thinks about it for like half a second.] Yeah, I'm definitely some kind of monster. I've got big fangs and eat stuff like worms and guac chips! [But it's distinctly normal-catlike when it rubs up against Pacifica's leg.] Fearrrrr meeeee.

I'm not going to be afraid of a dumb talking cat!! And worms are totally gross.

[Pacifica flinches away. She's never really interacted with a pet before--her parents aren't exactly the nurturing type--and this is too overwhelming for just now.]

Um, you're going to get cat hair all over my clothes!! Stop it!!

Hahaha, okay, no cat hair.

[The cat starts to glow white, and grow bigger... Soon enough, it's replaced by what looks like a short and stocky girl with purple skin.]

Yo.

What the heck?!

[She takes a step back, eyes wide.]

Gosh, no, this is--this is, like, super weird and if someone doesn't tell me what's going on right now, I--um, I'll sue you!!

[Good job, Paz. Really, nice work.]

[Amethyst's grin grows wider. She never gets tired of this kind of reaction. Weirding people out is like her only goal in life.]

If you think this is weird, you should see what the closets do! Seriously though, no one really knows what's going on around here. You're gonna have to sue a lot of people.

What are you talking about?! Where am I!? Did you kidnap me?!

[She backs away, eyes still wide with fear and confusion.]

I'm--is this for a ransom?! Or did my parents do this?! A-Answer me!!

[Whoops, maybe she's going overboard with the whole "scare the newbie" thing.] Whoa, whoa, calm down. I didn't kidnap you, your parents didn't kidnap you, the rabbits outside didn't kidnap you. Here's where we get weird again: this place sucked you up 'cause it likes to eat people. It's pretty gross, haha. But it's cool 'cause it's got free food and wifi. Any food you want, too.

Um, what?!

What do you mean, sucked me up? That's--that's impossible, I was just at home. I mean--the party was just finishing up, and...

[She glances at the weird purple woman, eyes narrowing.]

And what do you mean, free? Northwests don't accept handouts!!

Yeah, we were all in completely different places before we showed up here. That's kinda how it goes. One minute you're crashing a spaceship and the next you're sleeping in the hedge maze.

And... that's pretty, uh, weird of you not to take free stuff but you don't really have a choice. Humans need to eat.

[She crosses her arms, huffing. Of course this--purple person wouldn't understand, she had commoner written all over her.]

I don't take handouts, or anything that's free. I'm a...a Northwest.

So... you're gonna starve yourself? [That sounds...bad. There's no way Amethyst can let a human kill themself if it can be avoided.] Okay, how about this? I get the food from the closets and the kitchen for you, and you pay me. Then it's not free. Or you could ask anyone else to do that for you 'cause I don't really want any of your money.

No, I'm not. I'm just going to get back to Gravity Falls. That's where I'm supposed to be, I have, like, stuff to do. Reputations to fix. I can't waste my time in some lame--what did you call it? Where are we again?

Wonderland. You can try to leave, no one's stopping you. It's just... gonna be a little difficult.

I'm a Northwest. I'm, like, totally confident in my abilities to get out of here.

Now, which way's the door?

[Yeah, she has no idea what being a Northwest is supposed to mean -- family name, she guesses? -- but she's just gonna ignore that.]

It's that way. [She points.]

Um, thanks, I guess.

[She tosses her hair over her shoulder, heading for the direction that Amethyst had pointed her in.]

[Uhh, she could just let this girl wander around the mansion grounds and freak out, but...] Where do you plan on even going? Even if you could leave this place where would you go?

To Gravity Falls. Northwest Manor. Duh.

[She crosses her arms.]

My parents are probably mad at me, so they'll notice if I'm gone. I have to get back, like, five minutes ago.

And you'd just know how to get there from here? You don't even know where here is. Besides... you can't get through the forest.
