Welcome to Gaia! ::

(sorry for the late reply XP been busy. We've got to try and advertise our guild and get more people biggrin Or at least have our active people make more characters. ))


Ivy was in her own thoughts, staring off into the distance. When she finally came back, they were talking about Ches. She was about to say something when Row ruffled her hair. The fur on her ears became ruffled as well simply from the discomfort. She turned and glared at him as he walked. "You're quite the hassle my dear Row, Sitting on counters is all I know. To take apart the happiness of this task, Why.. that's something even you should never ask." She giggled. Her smile faded quickly though as she turned to the Queen. "By chance, sweet fair Queen, I wish to ask of what you've seen. Upon your travelling ears, have you seen one of my old peers?" She looked at the ground for a moment before looking back up into the Queen's eyes. "The reluctant one, the one that compares to none." She was beating around the bush. "The Hatter, ma'am. The one who brought me up to be who I am. I miss him despite of his bother, I wish for him to join us, He is like my brother." She started to pout. "He's so stubborn like the hats he makes, why won't he join us? What will it take??"

(we have a hatter now razz Things can get rolling))


Ivy blinked and smiled upon the Queen tilting Ivy's head. She opened her lips, somewhat pouting. "But.. but.. My Queen of graceful light. In the beginning you wanted him to join because it's what's right. Why the change in expression? Why.." She zoned off. Her ear twitched. She stared out the window for a moment. "Hatter..." She whispered. She could feel it deep inside her. He had come out of hiding. He was out there. "What if.. I convinced him to join without.. suppression? No traps, no harm. Just simply me and my friendly charms?" Of course, Ivy trusted her Queen. She was also, however, very gullible. Ivy was easy to manipulate and persuade. The queen simply had to say something, and she would believe her. "My Queen.. I feel it. He is back. I cannot bare to sit, and know that your kingdom is in much lack. Should he be on our side, his magic is grand. There would be nothing that could stop you in all the land." She smiled big, thinking of how wonderful it would be to finally reunite with a friend who was like a big brother to her. She hopped up and down. "Why I'd love some tea! Come, follow I have a fresh batch brewed. I get a cup for me. You get a cup for you." Once the Queen gave the word, she'd skip to the kitchen.

(Oh how devious. It's going to be fun that one day with someone more convincing opens the Hare's eyes, huh? XD Whoo! ))


Ivy got to the kitchen and went directly for the tea. She needed her dosage before she would break loose and destroy practically everything. She poured herself some tea and took a quick sip. The Queen has already witnessed Ivy's inner monster. Normally, she didn't mind that Ivy always had to run to the kitchen for some tea. She went over and poured The Queen some tea. The look on Merlina's face worried Ivy. Her eyes lightened as she leaned in and looked up at her face. She was about to ask what was wrong when Merlina started speaking. She pouted and nodded. "Tis is very true.. I wish he would understand you.. Oh, you poor creature. Despite this, you must try to smile its your best feature." She listened closely and nodded here and there. Upon hearing that the Queen thought she'd get hurt, Ivy poked her head back up. She tilted her head, the looks almost disbelieving. "I know you mean well, oh worried one. But, my gifts are far from child's fun." Her eyes narrowed, and a dark smile crept onto her face. Merlina could almost see her inner demon. It was as if she was speaking. "I'll talk to him and let's say.. if anyone stands in my way.." She picked up an apple and smiled at it. It started rotting in her hands until it fell apart. She threw it into the trash can and went to rinse her hand off. Her innocent smile came back. She hopped over back to the table, grinning. "Thank you so much my Queen! I get to see him again, oh how long it's been! Oh, I hope he'll join us! So don't make such a fus. I'll be back in no time! In time for us to dine!" She skipped off towards where she thinks he'd be. She had no idea of the Queen's intentions.


(exits to Hatter's table)

(oh I do believe you can control the NPCs for your army. That way if you want, you can ambush the capture of the hatter XD something. We'll figure it out.))

(XD I think that's why Captain Saki likes me, haha. I'm trying to keep the guild hanging in there, but we need more people sad Yes, you are allowed to control so long as you keep the the right character. Also, you cannot control a character that is on the list for RPC. If any problems arise, someone will alert you, so you may correct whatever you did ^-^ ))

(Posting with phone please forgive any spelling/grammar issues! ))


Ivy got to the castle, gently tugging Lerista wrist along the way. The moment she would lay eyes on her queen, whether through magic or Ivy insanity, she would forget everything that just happened. She looked back at Lerista with a sad smile. You will like it here I promise She stopped, pulled him close and hugged him. You are like a big brother to me. I won't let anyone harm you. She stood on her toes to kiss him on the cheek. She smiled sincerely and let him go. She would skip to the queen the moment she arrived. Good evening fair queen, I've seen a cracker pot w h at ever that means. Have your men found my old friend yet, if you want you could send me to go get?


(So from my understanding he is suppose to be locked in a magic cage and I am the hatter keeper smile or body guard xD feed him all that haha. Hope our rebellion is still active)

(sorry it's long, wanted to go a bit farther)

The nagging feeling had subsided before the wisps had returned with updates. The small blue creatures resting once again on the palm of their Queen. All but one seeped through her skin to return as a part of her body. I'm sure my soldiers will return after them, when they arrive tell them to lock the Hatter in the cage. Keep 2 on watch.. It gave a small bow before running off to complete its orders. Seconds later the Hare had arrived as chipper as ever. Seems her stressful meeting cause her amnesia to come back. Before being able to reply to the Hare another presence was at the door. Merlina held back a chuckle as she saw the state that the Ace was in. Hair and clothes ruffled with a hint of a pout on his face. Good evening you two. Please come in, take a set. Moving to the couch in the room, she gestures to the one opposite of her. (Kinda looks like this but different color scheme) Knowing the hare would explain who the friend was she did not bother to waste her breath. The Queen swiftly sat on the soft cushions and crossed a leg over the other. Resting her elbow in her knee and her head in her hand, she looked over at Ivy. Little one, he is already here. Apparently he was sneaking around my grounds in search of something. I've sent orders for his imprisonment. But seeing as you are closest to him, I will grant you the right to be his keeper for the time that he is here. Understood? Taking advantage of the missing pieces of Ivy's memory, Merlina lied through her teeth. No stutter and no hesitation for it did not matter to her. Filling in the holes to stable Ivy was the least she could do. After all, the madness would continue to grow either way. Playing around with it seemed to keep the Hare's loyalty strongly in her favor as well as giving it a target away from the somewhat sain Queen for the time being. With the oncoming excitement of the news surely the Hare would immediately run out to his side. Merlina waited until Ivy was out of sight before speaking. What an exceptional gift the sorcerers in my kingdom have given me. A magnetic force cage does come in handy, especialy with a gravity power mad man. A soft sign escaped her lips, then came the laugh she held in. Adressing Roland but not looking his way she said, Tehe, dear Rolan you seem to have run into trouble on your search. Pardon our friend and for my lack of consideration. If he wishes to stay gone so be it. My darling cat enjoys his fun a little too much. So tell me, Now she looked in his direction. Eyes with dull laughter and a mocking smile rising on her face, are you pouting over there or are you just normally irritated at me? Teasing her Ace was a nice pass time for Merlina. Plus she like to think that having a normal conversation with someone could keep the ghost the madness in her heart at bay.

((It's nice to be back lol, Hospitals aren't so fun....))


Row flinched when he heard the Queen's quick but small giggle, trying to keep his face in one color. "It wasn't trouble I ran into, more like...difficulties..." He sighed, looking the other way. He was usually so level headed, but when the Queen was being herself.... He felt a bit unnatural, almost as if she was trying to make him flustered. "A card guard can not pout milady. The irritation was never directed at you, I apologize for the confusion." He explained, glancing at her from his position. She seemed more relaxed then usual as of late. Maybe it was because the Hatter was finally put away? The madman hadn't caused much trouble, but was always a possible threat. And Ivy....He wasn't sure what was wrong with the Hare's little noggin.

((I feel like I suck at roleplaying. I never feel fully satisfied with my replies either. Can someone give me some feedback. I'd appreciate it))


The slight changes in the Ace's composure only had Merlina want to tease her second higher up even more. She smiled and playfully waved her hand in his direction Come now Row. Don't be so modest. The only time the Queen ever called Rolan by his nickname was when they were alone. She was always a bit too fond of the Ace yet she never fully understood why. Maybe it was because he reminded her much of the world that she saw her first day outside the Castle. Refined but with a side of madness not so easily required. Madness she detested so much was ironically in her presence. In my opinion, the look of a flustered male is cute. Losing their composure over small things is amusing. she signed at the thought. The way an adult can turn into a shy child in seconds brings and evil smirk to her face. Besides I wouldn't mind if you were annoyed at me. Hmm not at all. After she spoke a somber expression crossed her face. This was nice. Having a normal conversation with an old friend was a rare thing nowadays. With the pressures of the deceased family she escaped from still lingering in her consciousness, as well as the busy planning with trying to control her kingdom, Merlina had so few she could relax with. Having a chat with a sane character in this mad world is pleasant. Especially when talking with someone who knows more than one world is interesting.

(( Kinda messed up this post so I fixed it. Still has the concept as the other though, so no need to change anything))
