Would you speak with a queen? Or a cat? (AUDIENCE HALL)

[twinverses]

Need something? Want to complain more directly to your cute hosts or maybe you want to bargain with your memories? Maybe you just have a favor. Regardless, this is the place to do it! Just knock on the Audience Hall's door or just call for the Alices and they'll answer.

Of course, if you want to speak with a particular Alice just note that in your toplevel as long with the date and rough time it's happening. They can be contacted IC-ly throughout the day.

For the final week, in person meetings with the Storyteller (formerly known as the Cat) aren't possible. Alice, obviously, isn't talking to anyone either. However! The Storyteller can be called to talk throughout the castle so just say where you're yelling at her from.

Comments are screened until the game is over.

[The queen, promptly had decided that this was too stressful or painful or both and decided to take a nap. Her injured arm isn't viewable from where he is. The cat is in her Alice form as she crosses her arms into a pout.]

She's stronger than she looks. [Is she talking about the injury or the mental scarring of being suddenly attacked?] Besides, what sort of barbarian just attacks someone when they want to return a book! I knew emperors were bad news.

I know, right?! We didn't authorize a sneak attack like that, to be perfectly clear. Arrogant teenagers, think they're so smart - not the point though, [he adds hastily because otherwise he will be tempted to just salt back and forth for an hour. HE'S SO ANNOYED.]

Whether strong or not strong, she obviously gets hurt very easily. I have to assume it is thanks to you that she recovers so quickly - but I always wonder how.

[he does mean in terms of both mental and physical scars, for the record. Nigel steps a bit closer to her, arms in a wide gesture where she can see his hands. His empty palms, specifically... though he still has his full arsenal in his cartoon-depth pockets, but that's always the case.]

It's quite amazing. Really.

I knew teenagers were a bad idea. [Ugh. Ugh! Why did they have to pull this? But anyway. She tilts her head.]

Children can cry a lot but still be fine afterwards. Though, she usually does try to hold it in more. As her only real friend, it's only natural that I listen to her and help her out. [Ugh. At least no one tried to send her into a breakdown this time!] ...I had to heal her arm this time, though.

[Dammit, Veronica.]
