"Nana's in prison?" Jasper said, his voice low but urgent. "The Tweedles put her in there? How do we get her out?"
"Jasper, please," Mimicry said, his tone hushed as well, and more gentle. He looked down at Indya and asked, "What happened in there? How did you end up out here?"
~~~
"It is in the nature of any creature to weep," Dum said with a frown. "I myself have done so, albeit not since I was a child. You are far from weak, Eris; this is clear by your demeanor-- by the marks on my brother's face, by this." He indicated the blood on the floor of Dee's chamber. "To weep is not to show weakness, nor is it to bring dishonor to our house. Besides--" He gently took her chin and smiled-- "nobody is here to witness your tears but me, and I will not tell a soul."
~~~
Nana laughed. "My apologies," she said. "It is a noble beast that inhabits our Plains... my people have kept watch over the species for centuries. Jasper, actually, is technically a Jabberwock-- he and his parents are the only ones that can take a shape like ours...." She smiled to herself. "He is a rare beauty."
((A rare beauty who never POSTS anymore...! Raaa~!))

Mimicry and Jasper exchanged glances. "In terrible danger...." Mimicry repeated with a frown. "If not from the Tweedles, then from whom?"
~~~
Nana laughed. "That is what Alice said, and now she resides with us." She shrugged, smirking back as she brought the conversation around again. "I take it she is a point of interest to your people as well-- why?"
~~~
Dum's eyes widened, and then closed as he allowed himself to give in to the kiss, arms wrapping around her, lost in an emotion that he had never genuinely felt before: love. He felt her hands on his face, stained with his brother's blood, painting his jaw crimson, but he didn't care; suddenly, she had become his world, the only one he needed to live for, the only one who needed to live.

"The robots Nana told us about," Jasper said with a nod of understanding. His heart was beating rapidly; he wanted to find Nana and get her out of there.
"Indya, please, we've got to take you home," Mimicry said, a hint of desperation and pleading infiltrating his tone. "You know Dee better than we do-- is there any chance he wouldn't look for you? If he did this to you, then you can't stay here. I'm not going to let you get hurt again." He looked at Jasper and said, barely above a whisper, "If Nana is in prison, that only means she isn't going to be hurt."
"Mimicry, I know she can hold her own, but you can't just ask me to--"
"We'll come back straightaway, I promise-- but please, we have to get Indya home."
~~~
"They thought she was merely an annoyance when she first arrived in our home," Nana said. "They were never particularly amiable people.... Then they became concerned when she made it into the Looking-Glass world, and even more so when she returned to Wonderland and-- well-- joined us." She laughed. "It's funny how desperately insane those brothers become when they perceive even the smallest hint of a threat to their power."
~~~
Their lips parted and Dum let out a heavy breath, a smile widening across his face. He reached up and took both Eris' hands, holding them tightly as he whispered, "I'm no longer resigned to death." He laughed softly and placed his hands-- now bloodstained themselves-- on her face, kissing her passionately once more. "Now I've got something to live for."
((lol. I think I'm going to incorporate a scene kind of like this into one of my novels-to-be. With the blood getting all over the place and whatnot. Except it'll probably be murder-related, not just mutilation-related. 'Cause I'm just messed like that. lmao))

((haha, it's okay, I get that a lot...))
"We'll just have to take the chance that he won't come looking for you any time soon," Mimicry said. Jasper clenched his jaw, but wordlessly followed the white-haired young man and his injured bride back through the trees toward the giant mushrooms in the distance.
~~~
"Please, milord, you've got to hold still," the young handmaiden repeated timidly, jumping back every time Dee reacted to the alcohol-soaked cloth on his face. "You've got quite a lot of scratches, sir-- almost as if a wildcat had attacked you!"
"She may as well have been one," Dee growled, after a sharp intake of breath. "Be more careful, will you!"
"I'm dreadfully sorry, milord," the girl said, her expression of pure fear incongruous with her sweet face.
"Just fix this--" Dee waved a hand to indicate his marred face and body-- "and be out of my sight, or you truly will be sorry."
~~~
"Just like the rest of us, then?" Nana said, coupled with something between a laugh and a scoff. "Good behavior isn't always treated with the greatest reward, you know... but then again, you don't know." She smiled and set her chin on a hand. "Forget I said anything."
~~~
"It's strange--" Dum started, but then he stopped himself. The conniving, intellectual portion of his mind was being overwhelmed by emotion, which had broken through the carefully-constructed wall and was now consuming him whole. "I think I love you too."
