Aliana gave a slight nod and stepped into the bathroom. She locked the door behind her before rapidly changing into her nightgown. She was tired and just wanted to sleep so she didn't bother to brush her hair again or do any of her normal nightly routine. She unlocked the door and stepped back out moving back to the bed silently and quickly.
We're All a Little Mad // OxO // Closed
While she had been in the bathroom, Hatta had changed into his own pajamas, and was tugging his shirt on when she came back out. For a moment, she could see a glimpse of pale, scarred skin, before the shirt was fully on and it was covered again. Hatta flopped down on the bed again.
Aliana said nothing as she put her bag by her bed and climbed back on top of it. She figured he would get annoyed by any questions she had about the scar.
Hatta adjusted where his hat was sitting, folding his clothes and placing them beside the hat. "Good night." He said, pulling the covers over himself.
Aliana shuffled under the covers and nestled into a small ball, "Good night."
He turned out the lights and closed his eyes, laying on his side. With his eyes closed and features smoothed as he fell asleep, he looked younger, more like any other young adult, not like the going mad man that he was.
Aliana could hardly see in the dark, so she just closed her eyes and tried to fall asleep. She knew it would be difficult to say the least, but she had to try.
Hatta fell asleep rather quickly. His eyes stayed shut, his breathing slow and even.
(Should we skip?)
(yeah probably)
(I can start if you want.)
(sure. I mean I can start too if you'd rather I did)
(I got an idea, unless you really want to.)
(nah go right ahead)
(Cool. Give me a minute or twi and I'll get it up.)
(alrighty)
Wonderland was being destroyed, eaten up by some terrible monster and all Aliana could do was sit and watch. Bound by the chains that she had put there herself, and left Hatta all alone to face against whatever this was. She hated the insane way the other man walked and moved like what was Hatta had been eaten up by his madness. Soon the monster ate Hatta up to and was coming straight at-
Aliana shot up in her bed covered in a cold sweat. She curled up on herself and glanced over to see her companion was fine and still sleeping. It had just been a nightmare after all. At least that's what Aliana told herself. It was just a nightmare.
(or was it a nightmare? lol)
Hatta shifted, rolling again. His feet were hanging off the bed, and his head nearly was as well, strands of reddish and white hair hanging over his forehead. His own dreams were just as strange as they had always been. It didn't bother him as much anymore. Or at least, that was what he told himself in the mornings, when he would wonder if maybe they did bother him. If they were a symptom of his fracturing mind.
;)
Aliana let out a grateful sigh that Hatta didn't wake up. She slowly got out of bed and looked out the window to see the sun just barely rising. She could easily go back to sleep, but Aliana doubted she could after that. She grabbed her bag and slipped into the bathroom to change and get ready before Hatta could wake up.
While she was in the bathroom, there was a thump and a yelp. Hatta had rolled off the bed, and sat up sleepily, rubbing his eyes and looking at the bed grumpily. "Stupid thing." he muttered, a yawn interrupting his words.
Aliana jumped a little as Hatta let out a yelp. She hadn't been expecting it, but luckily she was fully dressed even if her hair was still a little wet from a shower. She peeked her head out from the bathroom, "Are you okay Hatta?"
Hatta looked up, and nodded. "I fell off the bed." he replied with a shrug, standing up and stretching. "I'm fine though." he picked up his clothes, and looked at them critically, as if he expected them to have changed since last night.
Aliana grabbed her backpack from the bathroom and brought it out into the main room figuring her hair could air dry. She sat down at the end of her bed still slightly shaken up from her nightmare, "That's good."
Hatta nodded. "Yup. I'm going to change." he went into the bathroom. He came back a few minutes later with his hair combed, and his clothes on, his pajamas slung over one arm.
Aliana was much calmer when he left and had completely packed up to the point where it hardly looked like Aliana had been there. She looked to Hatta, "How far do we need to make it today?"
Hatta put his pajamas in his hat, then put the hat on. "Well, that depends. The well only appears to one who wishes hard enough, and I'm afraid that my wishes are never hard enough."
"What does one have to wish for in order for the well to appear?" Aliana asked as she took a step towards the door.
"Something. Anything. It just has to be with all your heart." He replied. "Apparently, wishing not to be insane isn't strong enough." He went to the door, opening it up.
"Oh," Aliana said quietly as she stepped through holding onto the straps of her backpack, "Can I ask where the well is?"
Hatta shrugged his shoulders. "Nobody knows. It moves around. It's not part of Wonderland, but it's not part of the Looking Glass either."
(Gtg to bed. Good night!)
