The Cheshire Cat, from Alice in Wonderland/Through the Looking Glass

Aug 02, 2006 23:48

The Cat manifests in the center of the room; then it saunters down through empty air, humming, and watches as the quill leaps to life to fill in his answers...

Down the rabbit hole... )

application, the cheshire cat

((Eee, now I will squee because I LOVE the Cheshire Cat... as does Yuki xD Don't worry though, she'll never do anything fourth wall breaky in the least tiniest little bit, I PROMISE, just be REALLY enamoured.))

*comes into Sorting, sees that cat and promptly shrieks with joy and runs to it* *tries to glomp it*

Hello!! I'm Yuki and I'm voting you into Hufflepuff and I'm not even asking for candy or explosives or weapons!

Why thank you. I have a lolly you might like... but it might make you grow. Or shrink. Or turn purple, who knows? *laughs and a green-and-pink swirly lolly appears for her*

*giggles madly!* Oh I know all about special candy, I'm little right now because of magic chocolates! I don't want to be littler, and I'm not sure I want to be bigger, but...

*snatches the lolly* It looks very good. Do you think it might make me pink?

I believe it may do whatever you wish it to do. But I make no guarantees!! The Red Queen might wish it returned.

If you're not all here, where else are you?

Why, I am over here, of course. *smiles and vanishes down to pawprints, and they split and walk around her*

*yelps*

*kneels down and tries to catch the pawprints*

How did you - ?!

*the air giggles and a big kitty grin appears over her head* Ah, laws of physics. Such silly little things.

Your Gryffindor answer makes zero sense and has even less to do with mythology.

And I'll stay from mind-expanding mushrooms, thanks. Try a better bribe, oh cat of craziness.

You err, in assuming that I am required to make sense. Ever. *mad laughter, again, what a crazy little beastie* I could introduce you to the Red Queen, perhaps? If you like to play croquet...

Oh, but if you're talking to me, a little sense is good. Otherwise, I'll talk nonsense right back at you and then we might as well both just be talking to mirrors for all the actual conversation that would happen.

*laughs as well, sounding more amused than anything else*

Red Queen as in communist, bloody or alcoholic? Never played croquet before, I'm afraid.

The Queen of Hearts, the fiercest beast known to man. A woman as untameable and capricious as the sea - hmm, wrong script.

And if it is a mirror you want... well... *giggles and fades, humming*

Quaxo looked very, very uncertain. It was a cat, surely, but it looked so weird and he was not sure about how to act around it.

"Um..." he said finally. "I don't like mushrooms."

The Cat perked up to see another feline, and its pink and purple bulk swished through the air toward the other. "Wonderland boasts some quite interesting varieties of fish, as well," he pointed out, flicking his tail in the direction of a school of fish that swam boredly through the air beside him for a moment before vanishing. "Though some you might not wish to eat!"

Quaxo swatted at the fish before they vanished, and then he looked disappointed.

"I like fish a lot," he said. "Why would you not wish to eat some of them?"

"Because," the Cat said, and offered Quaxo a plate of what looked like sardine tarts. "They might take offense, and chew their way out from the inside."

*From inside his fishtank, Nemo squeaks. He picks up a plastic spear in his mouth and swims inside the cave of a plastic mountain. In the cage hanging outside the tank, a plump gray tribble with reddish-brown spots stops chirping. She perceives her owner's fear and begins to quiver. The house elf who accompanies Nemo everywhere stands between the tank and the cat.*

"Would you eat a fish if he was a talking fish who could ... could be ... your friend?" Nemo quavers.

((Ooh, this should be fun. Good character choice! The Cheshire Cat may not harm Nemo but may frighten him if he likes. Or may be friendly, as he prefers.))

Laura stepped over to the tank and leaned in to whisper.

"It's okay, Nemo. You're in a roomful of wizards. Nobody's gonna let him do *anything* to you or Domino or Furryfurrysoft. Promise."

Nemo whispered back,

"Really, Laura? ... Thank you. Dr. Grant is lucky you're his friend, you're real real nice."

((You might be amused by Nemo's reply to Grant's latest owl.))

"Really. And thanks, but I think we're the lucky ones. Dr. Grant told me once he's picky about choosing his friends. We're in an exclusive club, you'n me."

((The drawing? Is *adorable.* The scale of things-perfect!))
