riddle rosehearts ♡ twisted wonderland

[beheaded]

1. Here's a cute date idea: I wrap you in your favorite blanket, put you in an oil drum full of cement, and bury you out in the desert.

2. Thank you for always listening to me even though the only language I'm fluent in is Complete Nonsense.

3. Unfortunately, you weren't as excited to see me as I hoped you would be. You know what happens next, don't you? 🪓

4. It's us!

5. [ text him! ota, assumed cr, and crosscanon are loved🩷 ]

I don't see why it wouldn't work...?

[meltinglight]

Explanations aside, it's likely for the best to follow the usual method. French toast is made using a toaster!

[beheaded]

Is it safe to put raw eggs in the toaster? Won't it drip from the bread and ruin the toaster?

[meltinglight]

Isn't this method what makes the toast French? The dry bread absorbs all the egg. Any excess will drip out of the hole at the bottom of the toaster. You know, where the burnt crumbs are collected?

[beheaded]

Oh, I see! That makes sense.

[ RIDDLE NO-- TOMOE WHY-- ]

In that case, I will ready everything and we can toast them together. It should be great fun. I'm afraid I already beat you to the mimosas though. Could you tell?

[beheaded]

Very good. That's what I like to hear.

Well now, I don't see why not. Give me but a moment.

[ with the help of magic, riddle changes fairly quickly; the awaited outfit is reminiscent of the one he wore when trapped in halloween town-- a white high-necked bustled coat that mirrors an asymmetrical gown, lined with blooming red lace and decorated with black, red, and checkered ribbons down its front. his white trousers are fitted, his high heels imposingly tall with a bright red heart on the toe box, and even if might be overkill in any other situation, he pins his hair behind his ear with a luscious hairpin, a red rose decorated with lace and rubies.

despite the ferocity of the outfit, since the picture is merely one between friends, riddle offers little more than a small smile in the mirror as he takes a picture of his reflection. ]

Well? What do you think? I'm certain I would do my beloved queen proud.

Re: beauman

[beauman]

You're absolutely stunning! Such rich red contrasted against crisp monochromes evokes her spirit of severity, yet the grand embellishments and unique cut hint at the whimsical madness of her kingdom.

Even in a photo, you can't help but command attention. Bravo!

[beheaded]

Thank you kindly, Rook. That's high praise coming from you. I was conflicted, because most of my Queen of Hearts-inspired ensembles are centered around dresses, but I felt that a ballgown might be a bit much for this particular occasion. Another time, perhaps.

Anyway, I will be leaving soon. I estimate my arrival to be in about 23 minutes. If you'd like, we can take more pictures together. I think I'd like to show Vil and Cater my outfit later.

[beauman]

I'd be delighted to! Pictures are even more fun when you take them together.

I gave the event coordinator some roses to hold onto for you, by the way. It's customary to present actors with congratulatory bouquets, but single flowers are better for such a large ensemble cast. I daresay it's a good excuse for you to mingle, isn't it?

[beheaded]

You didn't need to go *that* far for me! I didn't request that you do all that! It is an excellent contrivance, I will give you that, but I didn't plan to do *that* much socializing.

Well, you already went to all the trouble... I suppose I'll do it. I fully expect you to check in with me now and then, however. Going to this party is just as much about getting to know you better as it is to socialize in general.

3!

[loiters]

if you keep making that face, it'll stick that way

[beheaded]

It tends to be my default mood around you, so nothing would be amiss if it were to happen. Now, do you have any last words?

[loiters]

how can i look happy to see you when you're always so sour? really, my feelings are hurt

[beheaded]

I wouldn't be so sour if you would just follow the rules and obey me whenever instructed. We'd get on famously if you did just that.

[loiters]

why would i do that?? that would be soooo boring

cattrick

[beheaded]

Do you really mean that, Lyney? Do you truly consider me family?

[ he's definitely blushing right now. ]

While you are correct, and it has taken many creative interpretations of the rules to conceal your identity here at my dorm, is this sort of thing not the least one should do for the person they treasure so?

Sweet as always, aren't you? I must admit though, the thought of calling Fontaine home... It's nice. It gives me a warm feeling. And worry not-- I always make time for magic practice as well. I daresay my combat training is coming along quite nicely!

i will follow you anywhere

[cattrick]

Of course. I wouldn't say something I don't mean. Words are far too valuable to spend carelessly, especially in my line of work.

[ he can feel it now. that's the kind of blushing he likes seeing and not the kind that accompanies a tongue lashing. ]

Yes. At the same time I don't want to risk your standing or your future for someone who may continue to disappear time and time again. You have a chance of having a very fulfilling and rewarding future! Not that I don't either, but I'm sure you know with the few details I've shared that it'll be riskier and less... you know.

My home is yours. But you still have a home, too. While my Family's presence doesn't reach as far as your land, who's to say it won't one day?

[beheaded]

Lyney... You're family to me too. You and Lynette both mean the world to me. Of course it's different with you, but I don't dare go on over text message. The rest of what I want to say should be spoken of in person.

*You* are a part of what will make my future fulfilling and rewarding. It's far too late for me to turn back now, Lyney. I may not have the true scope of your family's influence, and I know they ask a great deal of you... Even so, I will stand by your side no matter what you must do.

I suppose anything is possible. Is this your way of saying you'd like to settle down with me someday? We'll need a big house for the children we'll be adopting, so keep that in mind.

[cattrick]

Haha, I'm glad you think so! I do wish she was a little more talkative around you, but she rarely enters her 'Chat Mode' without being asked. Then again the fact she's relaxed when you're near speaks volumes about how she feels about us.

At some point? Yes. I would! I will eventually run the House of the Hearth. Never in its storied history has it been the home of not one, but two parents. We could represent both discipline and loyalty in its purest forms while providing a loving home... a caring home. The thought is heartening, to say the least.

With you at my side, I know we can accomplish what we both want in life. And yes, perhaps what we wish to say to one another would be best in private. For our own ears only. I'll make my travel brief.

[ smart man... he Understands... riddle is still working on actualizing his ideal self, and in all honesty, his vision of ideal beauty is a giant buff muscular woman like the queen from that one book, but since that's impossible for him to attain, he needs to figure something else out that will work for him. poor little rosie has so much to figure out, doesn't he? ]

That's actually a good point, as I want to do more traveling in the future. Even during my flight from London, I was comfortable and able to curl up in my seat just fine.

Hm... In light of this, rather than hoping to reach 190cm, I'll try to will my growth to a nice 180. That ought to do nicely. It's tall enough to change my life, but I can still manage to pull off an effeminate appearance whenever I choose.

[outplayed]

well, do your best with that

[ sometimes you're not supposed to break the delusion... ]

what are you plans to deal with the growing pains

[beheaded]

Thank you.

[ then why the fuck is he asking all these QUESTIONS, planting seeds of DOUBT?!?!?! ]

Growing pains? Those are old hat by now. I already had them when I was around twelve or so before I shot right up overnight, so I imagine my next growth spurt will be similar in nature.

[ he's going to die of a copium overdose if he keeps this up... ]

[outplayed]

[ he just thinks riddle should be prepared to grow like 2 feet if that's what he wants to do?? ]

oh? good for you
i had them fairly severely, especially in the knees

[ but lots of fucked-up things were happening to him physiologically on account of going from malnourished to being put on meal plans for the 1% of athletes out there, so he imagines his might have been particularly painful for many reasons outside of just the normal ones. ]

but i didnt have a second growth spurt so i guess it could be different

caycay

[beheaded]

I'm happy it pleases you so. I learned that word recently, along with rizz, proper use of 💀, and raw-dogging. I'm thinking of making flashcards to study the more common phrases at some point.
