Right, so. Second week of August is only a day or two away. I don't know about anyone else, but I'm going over there before they do something completely rotten to that girl!

But, the last time, we had that Dormouse around to lead us there, but he's been pretty quiet. Come to think of it, I haven't seen that Hare either but I still owe him something. If neither of them have shown themselves by the time Sunday gets here, I think I'll look for them myself. If we can get them to cooperate, we should be able to get over there. They brought Flay and I to this...hole, thing. We've done it before, so it's not a big deal. We could definitely do it again, I think.

At least, when they're there to be asked it's not a big deal. They're probably off having tea somewhere. I don't know. They can't possibly be that hard to find, right?

Brave.

[pottershotter.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Nill. No worrying, okay?

[tokenloli.livejournal.com]

Will try! I hope you can help Alice.

[pottershotter.livejournal.com]

I hope so too! We'll bring her back safe, with any luck. And we'll come back here before those silly mirror people know what hit them.

[idkmybfftony.livejournal.com]

I'll be seeing you there!

So pretty much any of the 'residents' here should lead us over there? I haven't seen anyone yet!

[pottershotter.livejournal.com]

Excellent!

It's been a while, to be honest, but they're usually lurking about. Come to think of it, I don't think I've seen them since before the trial. I know it sounds barking mad, but they're these talking animals that come out whenever some event is going to happen. If that's the case, you'd think they'd be out and about now though!

[idkmybfftony.livejournal.com]

Hmm.. yeah, seriously. I wonder where they'd be hiding?

[pottershotter.livejournal.com]

Probably one of the tea rooms, I'd guess. Or maybe the kitchens. And who knows, maybe we'll find the rabbit hole ourselves if we go looking for them long enough.

[idkmybfftony.livejournal.com]

Well, only one way to find out!

[pottershotter.livejournal.com]

That's right! We'll have to hurry on that!

[oncein-bluemoon.livejournal.com]

With so many of them, probably not.

[pottershotter.livejournal.com]

I know, right? If we get enough of us looking, we could definitely find it, and in turn find Alice.

[viva-la-impala.livejournal.com]

Here's an idea, we could search the floors of the mansion and note if we find any anomalies that might be the Rabbit Hole. We should also explore the caves as much as we can.

[OOC:totally not letting Dean miss this event. He needs action even if it means another mansion death.]

[pottershotter.livejournal.com]

That sounds great! If we could find that rabbit hole somehow, we wouldn't need to find the residents at all! Definitely look in the caves; I'm sure that thing loves hiding down there.

[chess-wizard.livejournal.com]

You're going over there? But that's... I mean, it's dangerous, isn't it? Is Harry going with you?

[pottershotter.livejournal.com]

Well, yeah, just a bit. But that makes any adventure a bit more fun, right? Besides, once we go try and save her, our side is going to be full of mirror people. I hate to break it to you, but none of the sides will be safe.

And I don't know if he's coming yet! I should ask him.

[chess-wizard.livejournal.com]

What? They can come over here?! But no one's told me that! At least, I don't remember!

Erm... so all of the fighters will basically be over there, and over here will be filled with the evil versions of the fighters?

[pottershotter.livejournal.com]

Oh. Whoops! Well, yeah, that's how it works. If one person goes to the mirror side, their mirrors come out on this side.

Well, basically. It might not be so bad. I'm sure plenty of the "fighters' mirrors" won't be able to fight to save their lives. Really, it's the nice quiet ones' mirrors you've got to watch out for, I think. Besides, I can tell you for sure that mine is some wanker who probably won't be any trouble, from what I've heard.

[chess-wizard.livejournal.com]

Oh. So you're saying I could end up with an evil mum or best friend? That's... not better. Not better at all.

[pottershotter.livejournal.com]

Hey, don't worry! It's not really them, you know. It's worse when it's supposed to be them and they act strangely. At least this way you know if they're being odd, it's definitely not them.

[chess-wizard.livejournal.com]

But I always think my mum's acting odd! She's a mother; that's what she's supposed to do!

[pottershotter.livejournal.com]

Well, odd in a different way then! In a way like she doesn't usually act, you know? If she starts breathing fire or hexing everything in sight or something like that, you'll know to keep away for a couple of days!

[chess-wizard.livejournal.com]

Well, since Fred and George aren't here, I guess she wouldn't have any reason to go on a hexing spree.

Ahhh I'm late my bad. ;;;;

[pottershotter.livejournal.com]

It'll be fine, Ron. Like hell we'd let anything happen to anyone.

[cunningcleavage.livejournal.com]

DON'T GO.

I don't want you to die. And you will, if you go. So don't go.

[pottershotter.livejournal.com]

I will not die! Honestly, have a bit of faith in me, will you? I made it over there and back the last time without getting myself killed.

[cunningcleavage.livejournal.com]

Just because you escaped once doesn't mean it will happen again. Remember how mad everyone was when the Queen rigged the Trial? It's going to be like that but WORSE. She's powerful, and invested. She won't let you get away with crossing into her domain without a serious fight.

[pottershotter.livejournal.com]

So we'll give her a serious fight! I'm not exactly unarmed, you know. I'll be fine. You really don't need to worry about me.

[cunningcleavage.livejournal.com]

I don't care how well-prepared you think you are. The woman changes the rules. She can do whatever she wants there, because it's hers. Things won't be the same, and you can't win. You're not going to live through this, and I won't be the one coming to collect your body afterwards.

[pottershotter.livejournal.com]

Then don't. There are plenty of people who will, should anything happen.

I'm going. The Queen needs to be stopped, and I'm not afraid of what she can do.

[cunningcleavage.livejournal.com]

That... wasn't my point. I didn't mean to make it sound like I don't care. I just don't think you're taking this seriously enough. You say you're not afraid, but you should be. If you were afraid but going anyway I'd at least feel better about your survival chances.

Just... be careful, James. I've had friends die before, and I never want it to happen again.
