Okay, we have all been invited to visit the Queen of Hearts' Castle in Wonderland! You can: run around in the hallways, play hide and go seek, paint the roses red, hop around on pogo sticks, play croquet with flamingos and hedgehogs in the garden, help the white rabbit look for his gloves, or annoy the cook. Whatever you choose to do, PLEASE, try and be as quiet as possible! The queen might get angry; and you know how she is when she's angry. *gulp* She might try to chop your head off. She's very famos for threatening to do it, but as far as anyone knows, she hasn't done anything of the sort; yet. All the same, PLEASE! Be careful, and have a good time!

*walks down to the kitchen to annoy the cook*
 
* Copperfox, who acquired some sewing ability in the Navy, begins making things resembling small quilted pillow covers. These are intended to wrap around the hedgehogs, so that when struck in the bizarre croquet game they won't be hurt. *
 
Me: *walks into the kitchen, sees cook making a cake* Ohhhhhh! Cake batter!
Cook: Get out, silly!
Me: May I please have some cake batter?
Cook: No, you may not! Now run along and play!
Me: *sneaks around to the bowl and puts out a hand to get some cake batter*
Cook: *slaps my hand*
Me: Ow!
 
The White Knight, looking as he did when portrayed by Lloyd Bridges, comes in to give LadyofNarnia a long, pompous lecture; she ignores it.
 
This is sounding like an RP to me (a rather interesting one). Thus, iMove :).

Me: *tries to get more cake batter*
Cook: You silly girl! Get out and go play, before I get her Majesty!
Me: *gulp* Okay.... *runs upstairs, ignoring the whte knight, who is still trying to lecture me*
 
A handsome Western gunslinger walks into the castle, startling the March Hare. But the gunslinger is no less amazed. "What's this place?" he exclaims. "I thought I was headed for The Octopus Garden to visit Copperfox!"

A fabulously beautiful woman speaks to him reassuringly, "It's all right, sir, you just stepped into a thread which I've repositioned close to yours. Your thread is just a short ways down the queue."

Emmett the gunslinger gives the lovely lady a glance of decent, gentlemanly admiration. "If'n you don't mind my asking, ma'am, are you hitched yet?"

The lady smiles. "Yes, I am, but thanks for inquiring."

The gunslinger tips his hat gallantly. "Then I hope your husband knows what a lucky hombre he is. Good day to you;" and he returns to his own RP thread with spurs jingling.
 
Me (Alice): *looks around upstairs, hears singing* I wonder who's singing around here? Don't they know that they should be quiet? *I walk down the hallway, looking for the person who is singing*
Mad Hatter: *singing* A very happy unbirthday! To you!
Me (Alice): *pokes head in* Oh! You are the one who is singing!
Mad Hatter: *stops singing* Me? What an absurd idea! I am not singing!
Me (Alice): Then what are you doing?
Mad Hatter: Talking to you of course!
Me (alice): But you were singing a moment ago....
Mad Hatter: Tut, tut! What nonsense! Would you care for some tea?
Me (Alice): Ummmm.... No thank you! I'd rather not! *runs off*
 
Nessa (me) walks in the garden and sees the white rabbit.
Me: Do you mind playing hide and seek?
Rabbit: No
Me: Okay...shall we play?
Rabbit: Yep
Rabbit: Who counts?
Me: You start to count.
Rabbit: Okay, you can hide everywhere around here but DON'T DISTURB THE QUEEN
Me: No, I won't
Rabbit: One..two..three..four...

Nessa runs away and hides in a closet
 
Me (Alice): *runs outside* Oh, hi Nessa!
Nessa: I'm playing hide-and-seek! Be quiet!
Me (Alice): Oops! Okay! *runs off to find a pogo stick*
Nessa: *looks for a place to hide*
Me (Alice): *finds a pogo stick and hops around on it in the hallway*
Cat: You must be quieter! Remember; the Queen?
Me (Alice): Oh, I doubt that she can hear me over here.
Cat: She is always listening....
Me (Alice): That's a creepy thought.... Oh well! *continues hopping around*
 
Nessa decides to escape from the closet and climbs in a tree.
Me: Pippin! What are you doing in this tree?
Pippin: Didn't you play hide and seek?
Me: Oww yes....silent!
Rabbit: 100...I'm coming! I will find you and when I do you must get me some tea
Me: There he is!
Pippin: Can I join?
Me: The next round!

Alice hops around the tree

Rabbit: hello Alice! I'm searching for Nessa have you seen her?
Alice nods head and hops away

Pippin: This rabbit is funny
Me: Yes, he certainly is...owwww, there is Emmett!
 
But what Nessa sees is actually Emmett's brother Jake. Having noticed Emmett wandering into the suddenly-appearing castle but somehow not having noticed his return, Jake enters the castle also. "Emmett? You in here?" the younger brother calls out.

This brings upon him the long-dreaded reaction from the Queen of Hearts. Pointing to the buckskin-clad figure, she shouts, "Off with his head!"

Jake, his boyish smile not fading, draws one of his Colt .45's and sets the muzzle against the Queen's forehead, while aiming the other at the nearest playing-card-costumed castle guard. "Now, folks, I reckon that would be a powerful unfriendly-like thing for y'all to do. I just came looking for my brother Emmett."

The gorgeous lady Inkling who explained things to Jake's brother now comes in sight and says, "He was here, but I sent him back to your thread not long ago. And yes, I'm a married woman."

Unlike the actor who played him on film, Jake believes in the sanctity of marriage, so he simply nods respectfully to her. Then, to the Queen of Hearts: "Ma'am, I'll ask you just to mosey a short spell with me till I reach the edge of your spread, then I'll say fare-thee-well."

As the hostage Queen is being led off, still delusional about her peril, she points back at the lovely lady and shouts, "Then off with HER head!" At this, Jake tosses his second revolver to the hand of the lovely lady, who finds the guards suddenly less eager to decapitate her when she's armed.

Once released by the departing Jake, the Queen tries to regain her dignity as if nothing happened, by mounting on a jewelled pogo stick.
 
Both Nessa and Pippin up in the tree watch what is going on.
Nessa: You saw that?
Pippin: He must be a brave man!
Nessa: He is searching for his brother Emmett.
Pippin: Isn't he here then?
Nessa: That's what he is figuring out.
White Rabbit: Found ya!
Nessa: Did you see that?
Rabbit: Yes...I was afraid he was going to be the next victim but it looks like he is a life savor now.

Rabbit sits next to Nessa and Pippin up in the tree and hands over some tea.

Rabbit: I always carry tea with me and I love to share.

They all watch as Jake walks away
 
Copperfox finds the King of Hearts pigging out on pastries. "Excuse me, Your Majesty, but are you aware that for some people, even if they're not suffering diabetes, excessive amounts of complex carbohydrates can raise the blood pressure to unhealthy levels?"
 
OOC: My dear Valjean, you have outdone yourself. I only feel comfortable with the title because you ennobled me :D.

Lady Inkling (of the blue kirtle, not the green) deftly catches the revolver and readies it, holding it in one hand while carrying her EMT bag with the other. After all, if heads are going to roll, and she prefers hers to remain firmly attached, medical attention will surely be required at one point or another.

Taking her sphygmomanometer (a ten dollar word for blood pressure cuff) from the capacious satchel, she affixes it correctly to the king's arm and, auscultating (listening) using her periwinkle blue stethoscope with the elephant nameplate, she assesses His Majesty.

Beckoning Copperfox aside, she speaks in a low voice, her expression radiating concern.

"I'm afraid the king's condition is worse than I anticipated. His blood pressure is below 90/60, and combined with his rapid breathing, poor perfusion-see how cold and clammy he is, and increased pulse, I suspect he's actually going into shock from an adverse reaction to those tarts..."
 
Hannah was playing cards with the twins.

Me: Do you have a three?

Tweedledee: No No I don't have a three.

Tweedledum: Oh, oh do you have a five.

Me: Oh, you boys are no fun good bye

Walks off to find someone else to play with.
