GhostlyClara, who you met yesterday, isn't a muse -- she's a muse girlfriend. She's in the same category as Mystie, Josie, Gypsy, and the rest of the Claras. I was thinking poor RPD was looking lonely lately. He doesn't have any submuses, you know, thanks to the other guys being player-characters.
-RPD: *hugs me* Thanks again. She really is sweet.-
Not a problem. And hey, you'll see her again soon -- next week, Valentine's Day!
-RPD: You really ought to get going on that drawing then.-
-OD: *nodnod* Or do something vaguely art-related. You really have to stop looking at other people's work on devART.-
I know, I know. *sigh*
-D: At least your question on the

curiousinsane Q&A got answered.-
Yup -- yay for not being so confused anymore. Though I still do wonder about that age difference between Alice and her sister. *pause* Her sister needs a name. Abigail. Alice and Abigail.
-WRM: Shouldn't you use one of the real Alice Liddel's sister's names?-
Maybe -- but considering Disney's Alice doesn't even look like the real Alice. . . . Then again, the Hatter of her world is named after her real-life husband, so maybe. Hmmmm.
-HD: *hits me with his hat* Name her whatever you want, just stop with the Dark Wonderland thoughts!-
-DW: You expect her to stop? I don't think you're quite over your "newbie" status, HatterDoc.-
-HD: *sulks* She could at least disguise them better. If she keeps trying to McGee me, I'm getting some caffeinated tea!-
Could be worse -- I could be trying to Looking-Glass you.
-HD: . . . ? That's an exercise in futility. I'm IN "Through the Looking-Glass" already, remember? And you've established that the White Knight is my equally-inventive cousin.-
-MHG: Or is this a case of where you meant what you said, but didn't say what you meant?-
Sorry, I should be more clear -- Looking Glass WARS you.
-HD: Looking-Glass Land has always been at war, it's a chess game.-
No, it's a book.
-HD: Oooooooh.-
-VD: Someone wrote a sequel to Alice?-
Not exactly. This guy says that the Alice In Wonderland books were lies, and that he has the real story. Alice is Alyss --
-VD2: O.o There's one for Bad Baby Names.-
*snort* -- Alyss Heart, heir apparent to Wonderland's throne. She's driven to the real world when the evil Queen Redd kills her parents. Hatter is Hatter Madigan. He's a swordsman with a hat that becomes some sort of blade weapon. He's Alyss's bodyguard.
-HD: So where does he find the time to drink tea with March and Dormy.-
He doesn't.
-HD: . . .-
Oh, did I forget to mention everyone's basically sane?
-HD: WHAT?!?-
I'm not sure March and Dormy even exist.
-HD: Who would do that to Wonderland?!-
Someone who thought the books were girly, if I remember some information I found correctly. However, I must give the book its due -- it inspired this kick-ass song I'm hooked on.
-HD: Not good enough. *muttergrumble* Sane Wonderland. . . . That's like the world of Girl Genius with no Sparks!-
-TD: Great Scott, that's a scary thought. It would be so -- boring.-
*shrug* I wouldn't worry about it -- I'm not planning on reading the darn things. Concept annoys me too much. I think I'll stick with more traditional Alice.
-HD: Then please do and finish "Marty In Wonderland."-
Get on that right after I finish up here.

Boring little day for the Baines siblings. Toby went off to his first day of work as an EMT -- no promotion, but with his love of skilling, one shouldn't be too far behind.

I grabbed the guys some money trees, mostly to help fulfill Milton's wants to earn certain amounts.

Most of the day for the others was spent skilling -- Milton and Joey needed something to occupy their time, while Sally needed skills to get a promotion at work.

There were breaks, of course -- Milton danced for a while, seen above, and Sally took a call from Joe Statler. :)

Then, I noticed a little fat Siamese cat hanging around the house. "What the hell," I figured, and sent Joey out to say hello.

Kitty is named Kim, despite being male. Yeah, I know, Kim is probably unisex, but I associate it with girls. Kim is a sweetie, though. Joey plays with him and gives him a treat.

Kim heads inside to try and destroy something (he's a stray, that's what all my strays have done so far). I'm not sure how the recliner pwns him, but it does.

Milton yells at him for scratching the couch, but then plays with him. This is how you know Milton's an athlete -- he can toss that fat cat in the air.

Kim doesn't like this and heads for the hills once Milton puts him down. More skilling, night falls, boys head to bed, poor Sally is stuck fixing the broken shower.

And that's it.
-RPD: Quiet day.-
Yeah, but at least I have a new goal for them. Let's hope Kim isn't like Moonshine over in Twin Oaks Park. I really wanted Emily to adopt that kitty!

And now, to fan fic. And fanart. And get poked by the muses when I get distracted reading an American McGee interview.
-HD: *headdesk*-
If it cheers you up, I do want to watch more DisneyPark Hatter clips on YouTube.
-HD: *lifts head* A little.-
-TD: *patpat* Hey, at least your Wonderland isn't totally warped, right?-
-HD: I suppose I should be grateful Queen Biffica of Hearts isn't a tentacle monster. . . .-
Ewwwww, mind just went to a BAD place.
-HD: Good!-
