The Wonderland native made a face, a little confused at the comment. He then looked around, not sure if he was just hallucinating or something. Sure, he didn't spend ALL of his time in Wonderland, he had other obligations. But he did enjoy coming here for his 'summers' you could say. Vacations from his other duties. The look of confusion became one of amusement very quickly however as he looked back over at them “Really? It's not shitshowy enough for you? Wow. That's new. Usually this place is deranged enough to send most people into insanity on the first visit.” Snapping he walked over toward a bunch of flowers, which immediately started yapping. Stardock pointed “Not even that? Nothing? I guess that's more batshit, than it is, like, shitshowy.” He glanced away, thinking to himself.

Then he smiled again, bringing his right hand, now in a slight fist, into the palm of his left hand “Got it! You just ain't seen the dragons...Or well, they ain't called that here.” He paused again, thinking once more, then laughed “Or the others. I'm pretty...normal.” Which was saying a lot, seeing as most of Wonderland was full of not normal. But that's what he got for being the 'human' variant. He knew he should have been born as an opossum. Damn! Stardock walked away from the flowers as they started bitching, now. Waving them off “Ignore them, they have an attitude. Anyway!” As he walked away he waved the other after him “If we go visit one of the castles, there's gotta be some kinda fucked up thing going on. Usually is, around those parts.”

Stardock suddenly stops in his path, so abruptly that the other might just run right into him for doing so. He then turned sucking on his teeth “Actually, we might want to stay away from those places. The Darkness- Oh shit! The darkness.” He tenses up, remembering suddenly that the evilest thing that Wonderland could conjure had come back from the perceivable dead, just recently. It was not a great time across the land, the kingdoms were attacked, some of the youth, not him, were part of some coup? He wasn't sure, most of Wonderland had been taken over by the darkness, and were possessed to fight for it, not him. He happened to be 'out of town' then. Conveniently. Lockley might say, doing something 'evil', but he wasn't, he would swear on it! “You don't want to know, but that was an entire shitshow- so I heard.”

Stardock stopped suddenly as he entered the room. This had to be the room they were looking for, right? He knew it in his gut. But a hand moved out, his arm extending to stop the other from walking further into the room “Wait…" Stardock says. His eyes glancing around the room “I don't trust it. This seems to be…too easy, right?” He narrowed his eyes across the room. It seemed like a setup to him. It more than likely was, too. Closing his hand, he dropped his arm back down to his side “How likely is it that we are just going to walk into a treasure room, with barely any resistance…”

Even if the worlds were different from Wonderland, people always seemed to be the same, from any world. He had learned that pretty easily over the years. Especially when dealing with his cousin. When running into Lockley. When having to fight with Kayze, nothing was ever just easy. Glancing down toward the floor, he frowns, thinking before realizing something, he had no connection to his magic, it was suddenly gone. His jaw tightened as he noticed this. This was certainly a feat of intelligence, he realized. There were going to be traps all the way around the room. Even if it looked like a straight path to the main treasure, the center focus of the room.

Now all they could do was decide whether they go back or not. If not, then, who was going to go first? Stardock swallowed “Well, here's the plan. We stop our quest and go back… Or we get through this puzzle?" He imagined that it wouldn't be the end of the journey if they just went back, but that it would probably take longer to get to the next part. Crouching down, he placed his left hand flat on the ground “I think there's an element here, deactivating my magic.”

Stardock looked over at the other, making a face, half annoyed, half in disbelief. Was this how they introduced people, in a sort of condescension? The male pulled back a bit before glancing away "Not that different from my own world, actually." Seeing as he was from a different timeline, not exactly a different Wonderland. Though, he could hear his mothers stories coming back to him.

Though this world seemed a bit too tame. Turning slightly, he looks around "You guys don't seem as ...insane, as the people from where I'm from are." Though there seemed to be far too many other similarities "So, you're a hare, right?" He picked his head up confidently "I'm from your world, though... I'm from a different timeline. Names Stardock, and I'm in my element. Just a little confused about when."

"Anyway, Hiii. Recently my cousin tried to assassinate me and, now I'm here. You wouldn't have anything to do with that, right?" Quirking an eyebrow up a bit, he stared at the other, waiting for an answer.
