deadgirlsliekme -- Victor Van Dort, semi-canon version who accidentally married a corpse but fell through the Rift right afterwards and can now leave his body
save_us_alice -- Alice Liddell, mostly-canon version who battled her way through Wonderland to save her sanity, then fell through a Rift and gained the ability to walk through mirrors

And then a "Letter To Cupid" thing Moose did for her Captain John Hart:

	Dear Cupid, This year, I've had my ups and downs in the love department.
I slept with Foxywriter and all I got was this lousy meme. I got crabs from Alienlisa... so I picked them out and put them in an envelope and returned them. Anonymoose_au told me I looked awesome without my clothes on which made me invest in some curtains.
So, as you can see, it's been a hectic year. Can you please make _coherent fall in love with me this Valentine's day? Sincerely,
Take this Quiz at QuizUniverse.com
( or, take the work-safe version at QuizGalaxy.com )

-Muses: *facepalm*-
XD


Had a pretty decent Friday the 13th. In honor of the date, I started the "Doc learns to fly very dramatically" thread. No bad stuff has happened yet, but. . . Well, it's Chicago. On Friday the 13th. :p
-RPD: I'm sure he's just thrilled about getting to fly.-
-OD: I saw you had your camera out a bit earlier -- taking pictures?-
Yup! Minimate shelf and the Corpse Bride figures. I love my figures.
-TTV: Please tell me you didn't put them in embarrassing poses.-
Perhaps just slightly embarrassing for you. Don't worry, though, I moved Emily's hand so it wasn't on your crotch.
-TTV: . . . Thanks?-
*giggle* I rather like the way I've got them set up now. Should take a picture of that later.
-D: Still going on your trip tomorrow?-
Yup, made sure of the bus schedule, got my fare, we're good.
-VD: Excellent. Sure you've got enough money for your DVDs?-
I know what you're implying. I'm only buying one.
-TTV: Two.-
Two, yes, if I can find it. And then, I'll be spending Valentine's Day with my loved ones. Mmmm, Ride. . . .
-M: Surprised you're not drooling.-
I'll save that for the actual footage.

Hey dude.

1. Sheesh, this thing starts out morbid. . .but I'd kill or die for my family (and that includes) Doc. Or to help people get out of Arcadia. I could do the whole "freedom fighter" thing, I think. Give everybody else trapped there a hand.
2. Sell somebody out to the Fae. Or, hell, anybody else, really. It's just goddamn wrong. Knowing you sent somebody to hell or to be killed or. . . Add another thing to "what would I die for," I guess.
3. Dream-dreams? Eh, I don't remember 'em often, though my favorites were flying dreams. And ones where I got to be tall. There was this really awesome one I had where I was Godzilla. . .
Anyway, for the whole "life goal" thing, I really, really wanted to be a rock star. I love music, and I love performing, and I just -- wanted to do something special, you know? Be rich, be famous, all that. Bastard who caught me kind of shitted that up, though. . . .
4. Going back. I made it out of there (alone), and if they took me back. . . I wouldn't even have Doc this time. I'd be all alone there, and the way Carlos acts sometimes. . . . I'd rather die than go back. Those bastards ever catch me again, I'm slitting my throat first chance I get.
5. Gotta say, my guitar. I love it. Saved up for a while to get it, you know. I've got it tuned just right, and -- well, I know it by now. I've played it so much it's -- it's like a part of me. It's my baby (yeah, I know, cliche).
6. Fondest memory? I think it's a tie between my first time on a skateboard and my first time playing guitar. Nothing like finding out you got a knack for something the first time you do it! Especially with the guitar. Guy at the music store told mom to get me some lessons pronto and I'd strike it big. That was awesome.
7. Finding out who Carlos really was. Nothing like discovering the guy who said he was a big-time agent for young musicians like me wasn't even human and wasn't ever going to let me see my family again. Shit. . .
8. Jeez, this is tough. Suppose I could say Huey Lewis or Jimmy Hendrix or Chuck Berry or any of those guys. . . . But, honestly, I think it was my dad. I mean, I know I complain about him being a wimp a lot, but -- he tried, you know? We had some good times together. And I know definitely how I don't want to be when I grow up. (That sounds mean -- I do love ya, Dad, you're just kinda spineless. Even you admit it.) Doc counts too. If not for him, I think I mighta just gone crazy one day and -- ugh, don't want to think about that.
9. Getting to live the dream! And I mean for real, not what the Fae gave me. Get to rock out on stage, sign autographs for fans, then go home to a great house with a nice car and a wife and kids. . .yeah, I did want a family at some point. Meet someone special, have a kid, get him his first guitar. . . . you know. Family.
10. My friends all tell me I laugh at the stupidest stuff. I say they don't have room to talk 'cause we all liked the Stooges. But yeah, I'm the guy who laughs even at the bad jokes. I like limericks especially. Not just the guy from Nantucket, clean ones. Though the dirty ones are better. ;)
11. Well, we went to church when I was younger, but that kinda fell by the wayside when I was 12. I believe in God and Heaven and Hell, but couldn't tell you more than that. Dunno where Arcadia fits into it all either. (Not sure I want to know.)
12. Um -- I'm fast? And resilient? And I've got a great singing voice? Really proud of the latter, incidentally.
13. I guess, growing up with Mom and Dad, I was always a little -- worried about failing. Never wanted to be the guy who gave up on anything. Got me into trouble once or twice when I took some stupid dares. Probably why I fell for Carlos's line, too. Fast track to success was too much to pass up.
14. I can only choose one? I mean, I love my parents, and I really wanted to see them again. They're -- they're kind of messed up, but they're family. But Doc. . . Doc helped me survive. Like I said, I would have ended up really messed up if it wasn't for him. And when he just disappeared in the Hedge, I --
he's all I've got left
So, yeah. Doc and the folks.

Awwwwwwww :)

Man, at first I thought you meant Iggy and the Stooges.

Alice! :D

*curtsies* Hello Ael.

1. Well, I've been killing in the name of saving my friends and restoring my sanity. I've come close to death doing that. I know I'd die if it meant saving them. I couldn't -- watch someone else I care about burn die.

2. . . ."Soil my reputation," I suppose. Murder is a non-issue these days, and I can't think of much else I'd refuse to do. But I'm going to be enough of an outcast once I get out of this bloody asylum without adding to things.

3. Lately my actual dreams have become rather twisted, so let's not talk about them. As for life dreams -- I'd like to get out of Rutledge. Start life over again. I doubt I'll ever meet a man willing to marry me and have children, but that's all right. I'll be content with living on my own, being -- being normal. (Or as close to normal as I can get. True normality seems a bit -- boring -- for me.)

4. Fire. I -- I can stand a controlled flame, but -- I don't think I'll ever truly be comfortable around anything bigger than a candle. Also, having to spend the rest of my life in an asylum. I hate Rutledge. It's so gloomy and dark and -- awful.

5. My bunny toy. It's the only thing that survived the flames with me. I don't care how strange it looks for a young girl of eighteen to be carrying it around. It's all I have left of my parents. You'd have to pry it out of my cold, dead hands to get it away from me.

6. Finding Wonderland for the first time! Granted, that first trip did end up all topsy-turvy, but it was worth it. Wonderland proved to be one of the best inventions of my young mind. No matter what, if I needed a little break from reality, they were there for me. Even the Queen calmed down a little before -- well.

7. Oh dear. Waking up from one of the Hatter's tea parties to find the house was on fire, then -- then going down the hall and discovering my parents were --
You've played the game. You know already.

8. Mum, I'd have to say. She taught me all I know about being a proper young lady. Manners, dancing, a little singing. . .yet she wasn't afraid to let me loose in the garden to hunt bugs and look for rabbits. And she encouraged my reading! Most of the neighbors considered books far too weighty for girls, but not she. Dad always said we shared an independent streak a mile wide. She was lovely.

9. Being happy, I suppose. Not going crazy after your parents die and ending up in an asylum for ten years Living well without hurting anyone else.

10. Riddles. They don't even have to make sense. I prefer it if they don't make sense. And -- er -- I hate to admit this, but I am a bit ticklish. . . .

11. We went to church regularly, as was proper. I believe in God and his Son, and Heaven and Hell. I rather have to -- I don't like the thought of my parents just being -- gone forever. I do hope they ended up in Heaven. And I hope their mad daughter isn't going to Hell

12. I suppose my determination. Once I set my mind to a goal, I'll follow it to the end. That's what I'm doing right now. I won't stop until I've stopped the Queen and repaired the damage she's done to Wonderland.

13. My fear of fire, I suppose. And the pain caused by the loss of my parents. I went catatonic rather than face the world right after. That was the wrong thing to do, I know, but -- I was just shy of eight years old. . . . It was quite disconcerting to wake up and find myself taller, with -- new bits. The wound's still raw, and I doubt it'll ever heal quite all the way.

14. My parents are dead -- my doctor? No, I'd have to say the Cheshire Cat. He's stayed with me through thick and thin. And although he's sometimes quite a pain with his riddles and cryptic advice -- it's good to have a friend. Good to have someone I can count on no matter what.

O.o at Cupid Meme! I have obviously been entirely misrepresented! I shall sue for slander!

As for the Meme, hmmm, well deadgirlsleikme sounds like he needs some loving...or er...not. But I'd like to hear from him either way!

[deadgirlsliekme.livejournal.com]

Thank you for choosing me, Miss Moose.

1. K-kill? I don't think I could kill anyone. . . But I think I'd be willing to die for someone I loved. If they were someone very important.

2. Well, according to the above question, I suppose kill. I don't think I could ever take a human life. It's -- it's just not in me. I don't like to hurt people at all, really.

3. My sleeping dreams aren't any different than anyone else's, I'm sure. As for my life dream. . .w-well, I always knew I'd have to take over my father's factory, but -- I-I always wanted to go into lepidopterology -- the study of butterflies and the like. Even just as a hobby.

4. Everything Disappointing people. Mostly my parents, but. . . I don't want to be a failure. I -- I want people to be proud of me. Too bad I'm so

5. My sketchbook. I love to draw. I find it very soothing, and quite enjoyable. And it's easier to carry than my other choice, the piano.

6. Getting Scraps. I was four and a half, and Father came home from work one evening with a little puppy in his arms. He asked me if we should keep him, and -- I was a little nervous at first, but then the puppy barked and licked my nose and I said yes. He rapidly became my best friend. Mother never liked him, though.

7. W-when I was six, I -- I was playing with Scraps in a field a short distance from my house. I twisted my ankle tripping over a tree root. It hurt so badly I couldn't get up. (Thankfully, it turned out to be just sprained, not broken.) I sent Scraps to get Mother and Father, but --
No one noticed I was missing for a hour.
They were all in a tizzy when they finally found me, and took me straight to the doctor, but. . . .

8. I-I'm not sure. I suppose Mother and Father. They were very strict with me, always made sure I was polite and quiet. They wanted the "perfect" son, the kind of boy they would be proud to show in society. I-I try, I really do. . . .

9. Being anyone except me Getting along well with others, doing well at your work, and getting married and raising a proper family. Always being polite and -- and doing your best.

10. *blush* I, er, I'm actually quite ticklish. . . . And I do love a good joke or riddle.

11. I -- we went to church regularly, and I believe in God and Heaven and Hell, but -- with the appearance of that corpse bride, my beliefs have been rather shaken. . . (And Victoria and Tie-Twister have told me of the Land of the Dead, which confuses me even more.)

12. Er -- I'm polite. . . . And I'm a particularly good climber. . . .

13. I'm clumsy. Horribly clumsy. I bump into everything, fall into people, stub my toe regularly, walk into doorframes. . . . And I have this awful habit of blurting out embarrassing things. I'm also painfully shy.

14. Speaking my current standpoint in the games, Mother and Father, I suppose. I never had much in the way of friends, and they were the greatest influence on my life. In the Museverse, however -- Alice. She's simply amazing. Deserves so much better than me.
