Perhaps it was due to the poor lighting situation going on, but someone had left a whole bunch of mirrors in the Death common floor, specifically where the entrance was. They were all propped up, somehow standing upright by some unknown power, each one a different size, colour, and shape.

It seemed that sometime, perhaps in the fragments of the day between accomplishing human-world jobs and returning home, Mimsy had been attempting to research the very important question of 'what is an Alice?'
Either that, or she was now calling every mirror 'Alice' for absolutely no reason.
"Hello, Alice! Hello, Alice! Hello, Alice! Excuse me, hello Alice! Are you through here?" She was tapping the surface of each of them, trying to peer inside, occasionally hitting her forehead as she tried to truly peer inside.

This was an odd thing to stumble upon, not just that they were just sort of there standing on their own power but also because they were just there. A sensible part of her brain would have considered them a hazard especially with the way the power was but haha, no. Elaia simply stared at the collection of mirrors and considered them, "neat!"
She wanted to touch one.

"Excuse me."
It might have taken Mimsy a little longer to realize her reflection was talking to her from one of the mirrors she had walked away from. It looked exactly like her, so it was sometimes hard to tell those enchanted mirrors from the regular ones. "Excuse me," the mirror reflection repeated to her, knocking against the surface of it on the other side quite loudly, "but Alice isn't over there because she's over here."

"You're pretty neat too!" said the mirror Elia almost touched, and then independent of the horsewoman's own actions, the reflection curtsied just a little. "Are you just extra beautiful today or have you always been this lovely?"
Ah yes, an enchanted flattery mirror.

Asuna had decided to pass by the Death common floor on a whim; she could not bring herself to leave the Dusk just yet to do more innate errands in the human world, and yet did not want to linger around the War common floor for fear of being reprimanded. Or inciting a riot of her own people. Not that Asuna had that much power, but given how that War Heir rampaged through Phoenix...
(Clearly she hadn't let that go yet. Her feathers were singed the heat had been so bad.)
Asuna tilted her head, dark hair slipping over her shoulder, as she stared at the mirrors. That was... different.

Character's name: Asuna Character's clan: War Character's journal link:[ x ] Character's arcana Wheel of Fortune BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF MY CHARACTER
Terr had just returned to check on the Death Clan's FEAR reserves when he paused in his tracks at the entrance. There were so many mirrors that it left him stunned and speechless. Granted he was usually speechless in the presence of others, but this time it was out of a genuine what do you say to this? moment.
There were other Horsemen present, most of them touching the mirror's surface or in one case conversing with them. Terr stayed rooted at the spot for quite some time, debating whether he should just ignore them and go about his day. Or perhaps the mirrors should be inspected, not necessarily the surface but whether they mirrors were gilded, what designs were used, that seemed to be a more interesting aspect in Terr's opinion.
His fingers lightly brushed along one of the more ornately wrought frames, blue eyes focused on the carvings as opposed to his own reflection.

Having already moved on from the mirrors deemed failures, it did require a moment of pause for Mimsy to realize that a delayed reaction had occurred. She did not point this out aloud, lest anyone accuse her of failing to recognize that a delayed reaction occurred after Robert touched the crystal.
"Oh! Yes! Hello! Excuse me," she replied to herself, as she was the one at fault for ignoring herself. She paused again to consider what she'd said, and nodded once she thought that she understood herself.
"I see!" She stopped to laugh here, because she could obviously see that she could see. "Can she come back now? What did she find in the 'there'? The Human Tome says 'and What Alice Found There', yes?"
Another pause, before leaning in to speak in a low whisper.
"Should I let you out now?"

Those blue eyes went impossibly large as her smile almost ate the entirety of her face. Of course now she couldn't help but touch the mirror, just as the other clanslady had done. But in a more poking manner. This mirror was ever so nice! Who knew mirrors could be so nice, even when they were eerily talking with one's own reflection.
"Aaa, you're so super nice!" She repeated her own thoughts as she gave the surface of the reflection an extra poke. It was too bad she couldn't hug it, it was much too wide around. "I don't know about beautiful but I try super hard to look all nice and stuff. And tough," she puffed out her chest with her hands on her hips for extra emphasis.
"How did a super neat mirror like you get to be so nice, huh huh?" What kind of magic was this?

Simply because she was there, Robert paid extra special attention to the mirror Mimsy was talking to, peering at it over her shoulder when he got to her. She could see the mirror was talking back, but it was still her, wasn't it?
"Who's Alice?" He asked. "And why is she inside a mirror?"

Out of all the mirrors Asuna gazed at, only one of them made eye contact back, the two reflections on the left busy chatting with each other, the one on the far right going so far as to stick a note on their mirror surface saying "BACK IN 15 MINUTES."
The one staring right back at her would look down and occasionally send a text message when it thought she wasn't looking.

The mirror Terr choose had a faithful reflection that replicated his every move. The carvings on the frame were beautifully ornate, hand crafted with infinite patience. When it thought he wasn't looking, the reflection blinked an extra time.

Darkjay wasn't one to venture into the other common rooms. He didn't see a point, unless he was looking for someone. He did sometimes visit them, just to see what they were like.
Today he decided to check out death. When he got there he found that there were a ton of mirrors, all of various shapes and sizes. He stood in front of one, staring at his own reflection.
For some reason he felt extremely angry at the mirror, although he didn't know why, and took his anger out on it by throwing a fist into the glass.

"Oh!" said the reflection in response to Mimsy's offer, looking quite startled. "Only if you want to. You must be the one to say the words, it is that simple, you just have to say- oh hello!"
The reflection interrupted itself as Robert approached. "Alice is your child of course. Well, our child. She's inside this mirror because I am inside this mirror!"

Forever PROUD of her fellow War Clan Members being so very good at collecting FEAR, Adelaide took a few moments to check on the rest of the clans, and of course gloat where necessary.
The sight that met her when she stepped into the Death Commons was.. not what she'd expected. Mirrors? She gave a cautious look as the horsemen milling about, then another look at the mirrors.
Had some jewelcrafter taken up the hobby of mirror making? Or perhaps someone from Conquest had made a large order?
Adelaide frowned. Something seemed a bit out of place. Perhaps she should investigate.
The sound of breaking glass drew her attention.
"Be careful! You might have to pay for that!" Darkjay was on his own for any bills. War was not paying for it.

Asuna blinked, head tilting to the other side at the note. There were... reflections chatting in there. That was. Very. Weird. She caught the eye of the one staring at her and approached the mirror cautiously. She watched the reflection send a text message, and so by some stroke of curiosity decided to check her own phone for a text message.
Failing that, she reached out slowly to touch the mirror, just to make sure it was solid and actually a real thing.
