Wonderland Project: Planning and OOCs - OPEN

[Kairanha]

This reminds me... the reason I was considering the Tweedles as an alternate role was because my personal touch to the characters would be to rescript them completely as Tweedle-Tsun and Tweedle-Dere, with both alternating between being cold and affectionate so you could never really tell who was who... Since it's sort of what I do with Kai and Kaori already... I think I'm really starting to lose it. Every once in a while I start trying to figure out why Kaori seems to dislike me sometimes and I catch myself and face palm.

Now back to work on my own part.  

[ThisEmptySoul]

That's more like it xd

I'm sure it'll be a few weeks yet before I decide to put a close on try-outs and get things moving on the actual story, so you have time to figure things out.

I still need to figure out what I'm doing for the Knave of Hearts before working on my secondary try-outs.

Speaking of, for those who already have done your primary try-outs and are just sitting back and waiting, you can start thinking about submitting secondary try-outs for other roles you may want in case voting does not work in your favor for the primary role you wanted. It will be noted when it comes time for voting which role you want most and which are secondary/backup roles so those who are voting might give the primary runners special consideration for roles.

In the instance that someone gets completely voted out of the story somehow {as in, none of their characters get the majority vote for a role} and that person still wants to be a part of the story, then I will assign them a role that isn't taken that I think will suit them or make up a part just for them.

And rescripting is encouraged! This is our own flavor of Wonderland. Just so long as you don't stray so far that the character isn't recognizable.

I should have the Red Queen posted sometime tomorrow. biggrin  

[Kairanha]

After going back and reading the tea party scene in the book... Hatter and March's only real purpose is just to be arses and chip away at Alice's patience until she snaps and starts flipping tables and leaves.

Being annoying as fudge. This I can do. whee

Redid the "characters so far" section to link to each person's try-out. This should make it easier to reread the try-outs when it comes time to vote. I also rearranged the list to roughly be in order of appearance as I'm seeing the story in my head so far. The actual order might change depending on who gets the parts, if parts end up being cut due to no try-out being posted, or parts get added.

Links will be updated if someone posts an updated try-out. I've also removed the pictures from the first post so be sure to post the image with your try-out so people can see how you would dress the part when they look back on it. If you somehow lost the image because you didn't save your own version, here's the photobucket album I created for it and have been saving images to.

The Red Queen Audition

Location: Red Palace

Seated on her throne, she was browsing the internet on her phone and idly wondering what was taking so long for her drink to be delivered to her. A butler finally appeared with her Pomegranate Martini and handed it to her.

“Here you are, your Highness.” He bowed slightly as he offered the drink to her.

Her eyebrow arched as her eyes narrowed. “How many times do I have to tell ya’ll? Speak only when you’re spoken to! talk2hand ” She sighed and took the drink as she waved away the butler and took a sip of her drink.

The Red King leaned over to speak to her. “Now Vilkat…that wasn’t necessary... sweatdrop ”

She turned and gave him a withering glance. “You too? Speak only when you’re spoken to! stressed Sheesh….are all ya’ll that dense? rolleyes Or do you just not remember the manners that were taught to you when you were younger?”

She made short work of her drink and then stood up.

“Come on, Hauk…let’s go out to the garden and see the chessboard. And don’t you worry a bit about the other chess pieces, I’m here to protect you. wink ” She gave him a saucy wink and stood there waiting for him to stand and join her. When he didn’t rise right away to escort her outside, she crossed her arms and tapped the toe of her boot on the marble floor.

He joined her and the two went outside to the garden. The garden was a large expanse of green, and only red flowers were allowed, per her decree. She began her customary walk around the grounds, inspecting each and every flower to make sure it was up to standard. She came across one rosebush and stopped in her tracks. When he asked her why they stopped so suddenly, she merely pointed at the WHITE flower that dared bloom in her lovely garden of RED roses.

“What is the meaning of this?! scream ” She yelled, and the nearby caretakers cringed at the sound. (her drawl did tend to make them cringe on occasion) “SOMEONE had better explain to me WHY there is a WHITE rose amongst my beautiful RED roses! ”

One of the knaves approached her cautiously and stammered out a response.

“W-w-well, you see…your Majesty….there are times when even a red rosebush just m-might bloom a white flower on the rarest of occasions…..” His voice stammered and his face red from nervousness. She merely stood there staring at him, her arms crossed under her bosom and an eyebrow arched as if she didn’t believe a word he was saying to her.

“That is no excuse, talk2hand ” she said with a flip of her hand. “OFF WITH HIS HEAD! scream ” She screeched pointing at him, and two other knaves appeared immediately to drag away the offender. She turned and continued on her walk in the garden and didn’t see the King shake his head “no” to the knaves, thus sparing the life of the accused knave.
She stopped and turned as the King reached her side, and he took her arm as they continued their walk in the garden. He sighed slightly and spoke quietly to her.

“Now, Vilkat…what was up with that nonsense back there? confused ”

She laughed and swatted his arm playfully, “You may call it "nonsense" if you like," she said, "but I've heard nonsense, compared with which that would be as sensible as a dictionary! "

She grinned at him, “Besides, you know how much attention to detail I give everything. I’m actually surprised that you’d dare to call it nonsense, knowing what the consequences might be. twisted ” She gave him a knowing smile and the two continued their walk around the grounds.

I present to you Kai as himself and

Kaori as the March Hare.


*As Alice approached the first to notice her was the March Hare and she alerted the others* Enemy mecha sighted! It's approaching at 3 times the speed of the regular units! Brace for impact! *The Hare embraced the Hatter over the Dormouse and all three proceeded to scream, though the Dormouse a little softer because it was sleeping, as though they were going to die*

Oh stop that I'm not an enemy *Alice said sternly as she took a seat. The three immediately stopped and went back to what they had been doing*

*The March Hare was the first to address Alice* Would you like some rum? *she said looking up at Alice smiling*

*Alice looked all around the table, but couldn't fine anything except tea* But I don't see any... *she replied quite bewildered*

There isn't any... at least not any more *replied the March Hare who looked quite sad about it while the Hatter held up a flask and smiled and which he poured some of it's contents into his tea cup*

skip forward a bit...

*The Hatter who had been staring at Alice with curiosity for some time finally spoke* I should like to undress you. I'll need to take measurements for your new cosplay. *he arches an eyebrow and leans in* I don't quite think loli is quite the right angle for you.

*Not understanding some of the words used but knowing enough that it was a bit insulting Alice took what was in her mind the proper amount of anger* My looks are my own business. That's very rude.

*The Hatter opened his eyes very wide on hearing this, but only said* Why is a raven like a writing desk?

Skip forward again...

*the March Hare was growing quite bored and shouted the first thing that came to her mind* Punch a kitten!

*the Hatter covered the March Hare's mouth* You mustn't say things like that. Chessur might hear you... he's always watching... always grinning in that way of his. Why last week I caught him peeping at me in the bath. Naughty kitten.

*the March Hare moved the Hatter's hand away and got up and stood on the table so she could face him eye to eye* Tell me this. Do you like kittens? *She asked with a smirk on her face*

*The Hatter not sure how quite to reply said honestly* Well yes, I *he was cut off by the Hare as she shouted triumphantly to him and grabbed him by the tie so he couldn't escape* That's it! You're a soft, weak witted... whatever you are?

Skipping...

~~it was at the great karaoke party the Queen of Hearts was having. I was only there to collect research materials, but when she caught me she forced me to sing and so I did. My singing has been legendary since the 12th century.

*he started twirling his cane around as he sang and the March Hare started clapping off beat from the song*

Kai~ran~ha, Kai~ran~ha ~♪

where ever you are, you're like a king ~♪

It's quite a bit longer *said the Hatter still twirling his cane*

Kai~ran~ha, Kai~ran~ha ~♪

Whoever you are ~♪

I'm looking for him ~♪

I'm going to California ~♪

*after this last part he struck a pose and held it for around 15 seconds before he started reciting his song from the beginning again* (ﺧ益ﺨ)

I hardly got through the first verse, which is arguably the best part, before the Queen jumped up and shouted "He's just killing time trying to remember a real song! Off with his head!"

I think it should have been stating first that I have no idea what I'm doing. Or why my entire post turned red except Kaori's parts. That's also a mystery to me, but one I'm too lazy to investigate at this time and probably in the future as well.

Queen of Hearts Audition
by Psyzapp-d



Scene: The "Royal" Breakfast

*The Queen sits at the head of the dining table and awaits her breakfast. A very critical culinary connoisseur, the Queen has gone through her fair share of chefs. The last met his demise by making the mistake of serving her majesty an egg that was overdone and the hollandaise with too much lemon. stare

As the new head chef frantically scurries around the royal kitchen putting the finishing touches on the queen's breakfast sweatdrop , the Knave of Hearts pokes his head into the kitchen telling the chef "it's time." The chef holds up a finger to try and buy some time and continues. Panic stricken, the Knave takes the plate from the chef and places it onto a silver cart covering it with a silver dome. Completely offended, the chef starts to yell and the knave, who stops wheeling the silver cart abruptly turns.* STFU! talk2hand I'm NOT taking the blame for your incompetence!! I LIKE my head just where it is!!! stressed *He continues on as the chef paces in anticipation of today's critique emotion_facepalm …a daily occurrence with the Queen. Who knew preparing a culinary work of art could be a matter of life and death. gonk

The Knave delivers the Queen's breakfast to her as she sits on her oversized ornate chair at the head of the elaborately decorated extra long dining table. With dramatic showmanship, he swiftly snatches the red napkin off of the table while in one smooth move, snaps it open in the air and delicately places it upon the Queen's royal lap. cool He removes the silver dome and bows to the Queen while he moves away.

The Queen raises an eyebrow as she examines the plate before her. emotion_eyebrow What is……this? *She picks up her fork using the utensil to point to her plate at a garnish. The Knave comes back closer to the Queen and looks.* Um…… *Mindful of what happened to the last chef, the Knave errors on the side of caution, damned if he's going to lose his head over someone else's screw up.* ninja I shall go and fetch the royal chef at once, your majesty. *He bows and goes into the kitchen informing the chef the Queen would like a word. Nice knowing you, pal. talk2hand *The Knave holds open the door and says loudly into the kitchen.* DEAD MAN WALKING!

Sweating bullets, the chef removes his hat as he sheepishly enters the dining room. His heart going a million miles an hour knowing exactly what happened to the last chef who was in this position. The Queen waits and stares that piercing, intense, half lidded gaze at the chef as he approaches. stare When he reaches her, he bows and stutters as he speaks.* Y-y-y-yes your majesty, neutral I-i-i-i mean your eminence, gonk I-i-i-i mean your royal empre… *The Queen of Hearts holds up her hand to silence him. talk2hand She points with her fork at the garnish on her plate and inquires.* Just what is this? emotion_eyebrow

*The chef looks and starts wringing his hat.* Um…a garnish your highness. sweatdrop *She rolls her eyes and sighs loudly* rolleyes I can SEE THAT you FOOL!! Just WHAT is it?! *He starts to sweat profusely and tries not to panic.* Those are radish rosebuds your majesty. gonk I have colored them a bright crimson and the leaves are mint. A bouquet of red roses fitting of her highness' beauty.

*She examines her plate once again in silence as all onlookers practically fall over leaning in anticipation to the Queen's verdict. She finally replies with a grin on her face.* I would like ALL of my meals with this garnish. *She states as each staff member present lets out the breath they held.*

End of scene…Takes bow.

Scene: White Rabbit encounter

*While sitting carefully on a blanket, an unknown manicurist does her nails and "Alice" spies a curious white rabbit. Curious because this particular rabbit was fully dressed in a fancy little outfit and she could have sworn she heard the creature say it was late as she sees it take out a golden pocket watch. At first, seeing this rabbit makes her think of Hasenpfeffer emotion_awesome …that is until she sees that this creature is carrying the just newly released "Poppy Satchel" by Coach. emotion_jawdrop

WAIT!!! She yells at the rabbit and much to her dismay the rabbit becomes startled and runs off with that handbag.* stressed SON OF A… stressed gonk *She jumps up which causes the manicurist to topple over and get nail polish everywhere. gonk Her manicure is probably ruined, stressed but hey…this is THE "Poppy Satchel" here. emotion_yatta

Going as fast as she can in her Jimmy Choo's, she bursts through some shrubs and comes to an abrupt halt. There it is…the rabbit with the handbag. emotion_kirakira But curiously, she notices the creature is now green. Again, the rabbit takes out a golden pocket watch and looks at it. I'm late. *It states once again as it eye twitches.

Alice puts out her hands and tries to speak softly and calmly to the furball as she creeps closer. Easy there fella. We'll get you there in plenty of time. *Just as she's about to nab that handbag, the rabbit leaps in the air and down a huge hole.* MADRE FIGLIO CAZZO DI UNA CAGNA!!!! scream gonk *She looks down the hole…and it is filthy. But DAMNIT!!! THAT was THE Coach "Poppy Satchel!" gonk stressed So she jumps in to go after the rabbit.* stressed

End Scene…takes bow.
