Alice in Wonderland
||the book||

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865) is a novel written by English author Charles Lutwidge Dodgson under the pseudonym Lewis Carroll. It tells the story of a girl named Alice who falls down a rabbit hole into a fantasy world populated by peculiar and anthropomorphic creatures. The tale is filled with allusions to Dodgson's friends. The tale plays with logic in ways that have given the story lasting popularity with adults as well as children. It is considered to be one of the most characteristic examples of the genre of literary nonsense, and its narrative course and structure have been enormously influential, mainly in the fantasy genre. The book is commonly referred to by the abbreviated title Alice in Wonderland, an alternative title popularized by the numerous stage, film and television adaptations of the story produced over the years. Some printings of this title contain both Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There.


||the cat||
The Cheshire Cat is one of many iconic characters depicted in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland that have become enmeshed in popular culture.

Alice first encounters it at the Duchess's house in her kitchen, and then later outside on the branches of a tree, where it appears and disappears at will, engaging Alice in amusing but sometimes vexing conversation. The cat sometimes raises philosophical points that annoy or baffle Alice. It does, however, appear to cheer her up when it turns up suddenly at the Queen of Hearts' croquet field, and when sentenced to death baffles everyone by having made its head appear without its body, sparking a massive argument between the executioner and the King and Queen of Hearts about whether something that does not have a body can indeed be beheaded.

At one point, the cat disappears gradually until nothing is left but its grin, prompting Alice to remark that she has often seen a cat without a grin but never a grin without a cat

Taylor
||The Guardian||

|name| Taylor Daniel Freeman
|age| 38
|gender| Female
|height| 181cm
|weight| 60kg

|eyes| Big round eyes that always seem to be sparkling. Bright sky-blue in color, hidden behind thin rectangular glasses.
|hair| Very deep chocolate brown naturally, though perpetually dyed pure black. It is fairly short, straight and sometimes pulled back into a tiny little puff of a ponytail.
|skin| Quite pale, though not horribly so. Spattered with a small array of freckles over her nose and across her cheeks, with the odd one or two on the rest of her body.
|other| Tall and slender, very straight up and down in all aspects. Small breasted, small bottomed, with narrow hips and tiny, thin hands and feet. To make things worse, she wears very tight fitting clothes and dainty shoes.

|likes| Reading, romance movies, cooking, picking lint off her husband's clothes while he's wearing them, daytime television
|dislikes| Bad moods, swearing, a messy house, burning a good meal

|personality| Very sweet, caring and soft-spoken, Taylor is like the parallel of her husband. She seems to be the more quiet and mature of the two, often compared to a doting old nanna, even taking naps during the day sometimes. She plays up the motherly housewife role quite heavily, and enjoys every minute of it.



Tristan
||The Playmate||

|name| Tristan David Freeman
|age| 12
|gender| Male
|height| ??
|weight| ??

|eyes| Narrow and sharp-looking like his father, but the same pretty sky-blue color as his mother.
|hair| Pure black, and very puffy and messy. Not too long, though not very short, and seems to want to go in all directions at once.
|skin| Pale without being unhealthy, with his mother's freckles and rosey cheeks.
|other| Of all the habits he's picked up from his parents, wearing black and grey seems to be the biggest one. Tristan idolizes his father, and wears black as often as possible to mimic him, usually in the form of a slightly-too-big hoodie.

|likes| Learning new things, being like Levi, pulling things apart to see how they work, asking too many questions, exploring, being independant
|dislikes| Being stuck in one place too long, not getting his way, doing one thing for too long, being underestimated, being babied

|personality| Inquisitive, fiercely independant, yet constantly trying to mimic and follow his father. Tristan has an amazingly high IQ for his age, and can always be seen trying to expand on his knowledge in any way possible. Tristan is immensely curious about anything he doesn't completely understand, and always loves a good hands-on dig around to find and learn new things.

Carol
||The Cheshire Cat||

|name| Carol "Cat" Raven Freeman
|age| Unknown
|gender| Male
|height| ??
|weight| ??

|eyes| Piercing golden eyes that always appear to be very deep in thought.
|hair| Silky violet, tipped at the very bottom with striking magenta, cut and shaped very oddly in many angles and at many lengths.
|skin| Average, without much of a tan, but not particularly pale either. No real destinguishing marks to speak of.
|other| Tall, slender, and unbelievably flexable. Also notable are the violet and magenta feline ears and tail, and his ear-to-ear cheese-eating grin he gets at the most curious of times.

|likes| Mazes, puzzles, riddles, rhymes, sneaking, teasing, grinning, playing
|dislikes| Being outwitted, being unable to confuse or suprise someone, being caught out

|personality|

Levi
||The Husband||

|name| Levi Durst Freeman
|age| 51
|gender| Male

|appearance| Very short compared to most people, though physically built like a magazine model. He seems very young for his age, with a spotless fair complexion and a healthy mess of thick black hair. His eyes are deep green, and he considers them his best trait. Levi is a tattooed, leather-and-boots-wearing type, and can be quite frightening to look at.
|personality| Once you get over the shock of his striking appearance (and age) you're likely to be hit in the face with his up-close and personal way, tactless sense of humor and loud, proud attitude. He comes across as a little cocky, but is actually covering for a great big inferiority complex ('little man' syndrome, his friend says) and a huge hole in his self-esteem. Painfully honest and extremely loyal.

|likes| Making people laugh out of sheer embarrassment, being the center of attention, hanging out with friends, being a good father, being described as likable
|dislikes| Being reminded of his height, being reminded of his age, rude people, shallow people, narrow-minded people, and 'the bloody government'

|relation to Taylor| It is a well known fact that Levi and Taylor met in a bar. The circumstances under which it happened, however, are constantly up to speculation, and it was always joked that all the tall tales Levi spouts about it add up to something akin to a trip down the rabbit hole.




Josh
||The Eldest Son||

|name| Joshua Freeman
|age| 18
|gender| Male

|appearance| Almost identical to his father, the two are sometimes mistaken for brothers. His dress sense is quite different, however, as he prefers to wear simple old clothes, suited more for a camping trip then daily wear. He keeps his hair long; it hangs in his face messily, and he doesn't seem to mind.
|personality| Josh is a very laid back, easy-going, outdoorsy type of guy. He would much rather walk or ride a bike then drive a car, and spends his time among nature as often as possible. He never seems to get angry, and is always the first person to offer his help to friend and stranger alike.

|likes| Undeveloped land, the smell of the countryside, peace in every sense of the word
|dislikes| Rushing, crowds, cities, hatred and war

|relation to Taylor| The two first met about four months into Taylor's relationship with Levi. The meeting was an awkward mess involving Josh's mother, and there seems to be a mutual agreement to never speak of it again. Josh is Levi's second eldest son, to one of his ex wives.




Kenny
||The Youngest Son||

|name| Kenny James Freeman
|age| 10 (going on 11)
|gender| Male

|appearance| Pink-cheeked, wide-eyed and adorable in the strangest of ways. His fluffy white hair, pale skin and blind-white eyes often present the startling appearance of a ghost. While strangers are usually shocked by his image, his family seems to adore it, and are always playing it up by dressing him in whites and pale creamy browns.
|personality| Fragile in too many ways to count. Kenny is the soft-spoken, clingy youngest brother of the three. Mildly Autistic, completely blind from birth, and classed as one of many variations of albino, he doesn't get to get out of the house much, and his entire world is condensed down into his family and home.

|likes| Music, his brothers, his parents, teddy bears, ice cream, cuddles
|dislikes| Being teased, being alone, going out, making mistakes, breaking 'routine'

|relation to Taylor| Son of. Kenny is a "mommy's boy" in every single way, and Taylor very gladly accomodates to this; happily doting over him day and night.

Why is a Raven...?
Once upon a teapot, there was a little spout,
It had a little handle,
and gave a little shout.
Once upon a teapot, quite short and very stout,
It was soon tipped up,
and all poured out.
