1; video. Vinedeo. Whichever.

[A face that looks like someone spilled White Out on it appears on the vine.]

Okay, I've been kidnapped.

By Disney, I guess.

Who else is here, and what are we supposed to be building?

Wow, OK. For those of us less inclined to violence, though...

[violent-archery.livejournal.com]

What, you want to do what this queen tells you to?

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

Not particularly, but I don't think I'm the one with all the power here, so...

[violent-archery.livejournal.com]

I guess. Haven't seen this Queen really do much yet, though. Kind of new here myself.

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

Well, there's someone who has managed to kidnap me and other people, AND has a lot of I guess trained animals around, AND set up... whatever the hell this thing is...

I'm just saying, I haven't even graduated high school, so I'm not thinking that's a really likely matchup.

[violent-archery.livejournal.com]

Hah... fair enough.

For me, though, something like this isn't an entirely new experience.

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

Seriously?

[violent-archery.livejournal.com]

Yeah.

The person who made the place is usually easier to find, though.

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

Are we talking like "hostage situation" or "crazy garden" here?

[violent-archery.livejournal.com]

Both.

... at the same time and in separate instances.

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

Well, shit. I didn't think this sort of thing was more than like a one-time sort of thing. I mean, you don't hear a lot about, "Dozens of victims rescued from forced theme park prison" or something.

[violent-archery.livejournal.com]

Hah... well, to be fair, not many people know that a certain island off the coast of Venice happens to be a hot-spot for the supernatural.

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

...wait, what?

Also, which one, so I know never to go there ever?

[violent-archery.livejournal.com]

It's where Reughardia Academy is based. It's not really supposed to be a tourist attraction, so you shouldn't even stumble across it unless you're purposefully looking for it. It's a pretty exclusive place for rich kids.

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

OK, sounds like I'm at minimal risk of being anywhere near that. Good.

So wait, if you've been here before... there's a way out, right?

[violent-archery.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Just gotta deal with the Queen, the pocket dimension falls apart and we get sent back to where we were taken from.

... a few of them were different, but since this Queen doesn't ever pop up in person, that's probably what I need to do here.

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

Well.

Um, good luck with that, I guess. I don't think I'd be any help there.

[violent-archery.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I haven't heard any good leads, and the brains behind the Defense Force didn't come here with me, unfortunately.

Since people are talking about months, I get the feeling this one's going to take awhile.

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

Months?

Well, shit. I guess I'm going to have to retake some classes.

[violent-archery.livejournal.com]

Retake classes...?

...

... shit. *yeah, she's a university student-*

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

I can only hope that "had to retake senior year due to being freakin' kidnapped" is an acceptable excuse to college admissions.

[violent-archery.livejournal.com]

... even if they actually would accept that where I'm from, it's not like they'd give me a passing grade.

Jeez, what a pain.

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

Uuuugh. This is going to suck.
